1. Organization and Description of Business | |
CymaBay Therapeutics, Inc., formerly Metabolex, Inc., (the Company) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapies to treat metabolic and rare diseases with high unmet medical needs. Arhalofenate, the Company’s lead product candidate, is being developed for the treatment of gout. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in October 1988 as Transtech Corporation. | |
Since inception, the Company has funded its operations primarily through the sale of convertible preferred stock and common stock, receipts from the exercise of related warrants to purchase preferred stock, the issuance of convertible notes, proceeds from facility loans, and up-front fees, milestones, and research and development funding received under collaboration agreements. The primary uses of funds to date have been for research, pre-clinical and clinical development, drug manufacturing, license payments, business development and administration, and spending on capital items. | |
The Company is an emerging growth company. Under the JOBS Act emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time of those standards apply to private companies. The Company has adopted this exemption from new or revised accounting standards, and therefore, it may not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” | |
Liquidity | |
The accompanying financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred net losses from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $348.8 million as of December 31, 2013. The Company recorded net losses of $10.1 million and $11.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company also recorded negative cash flows from operating activities during 2013 and 2012 of $8.5 million and $11.3 million, respectively. To date, none of the Company’s product candidates have been approved for marketing and sale, and the Company has not recorded any product sales. Management expects operating losses to continue for the next several years. The Company’s ability to achieve profitability is dependent primarily on its ability to successfully develop, acquire or in-license additional product candidates, continue clinical trials for product candidates currently in clinical development, obtain regulatory approvals, and support commercialization activities for partnered product candidates. Products developed by the Company will require approval of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or a foreign regulatory authority prior to commercial sale. The regulatory approval process is expensive, time-consuming, and uncertain, and any denial or delay of approval could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Even if approved, the Company’s products may not achieve market acceptance and will face competition from both generic and branded pharmaceutical products. | |
In 2013, in order to address immediate capital requirements, the Company entered into a series of financing transactions. Specifically, on September 30, 2013, all of the shares of the Company’s outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock converted to common stock and the Company issued shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a private placement for gross proceeds of $26.8 million. The Company raised an additional $5.0 million in venture debt financing pursuant to a $10.0 million loan agreement, resulting in aggregate net proceeds to CymaBay of $28.8 million after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Also on September 30, 2013, the Company issued shares of common stock in cancellation of approximately $16.9 million of debt owed to the lender. On October 31, 2013, the Company sold additional shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock, which sales are also part of the private placement, for net proceeds to CymaBay of $2.2 million after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. Further, on November 22, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with investors to purchase shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock as part of the private placement for net proceeds of $2.7 million, which sales occurred shortly after the listing of the Company’s common stock on the over-the-counter market on January 24, 2014. Collectively, the private placement, the venture debt financing and the issuance of our common stock in cancellation of the $16.9 million of debt is referred to as the 2013 financing. | |
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $24.4 million and marketable securities of $6.8 million. Although these amounts are expected to fund the Company’s ongoing operations through the second quarter of 2015, the Company will require additional financial resources to fund its operations beyond that date, which management plans to raise primarily through equity and/or debt financings and/or collaboration activities. Such funding may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Company is not able to secure adequate funding, it may be forced to make reductions in spending, liquidate assets where possible, and/or suspend or curtail planned programs. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of the carrying amounts of recorded assets or the amount of liabilities that might result from the outcome of uncertainties. | |

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |||||||||||||||||
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates | |||||||||||||||||
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), which requires management to make informed estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company believes significant judgment is involved in determining revenue recognition and in estimating stock-based compensation, clinical trial accruals, and equity instrument valuations. | |||||||||||||||||
Reverse Stock Split | |||||||||||||||||
On September 30, 2013, the Company filed amended and restated certificates of incorporation under which the Company’s preferred stock and common stock was reverse split on a 1-for-79.5 basis. The accompanying financial statements and notes to the financial statements, other than with respect to the authorized number of shares, give retroactive effect to the reverse split for all periods presented. | |||||||||||||||||
Reclassification of Prior Period Balances | |||||||||||||||||
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to current-year presentation. | |||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, warrant liabilities, forward contracts, and convertible notes. Fair value estimates of these instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information. These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses are generally considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. | |||||||||||||||||
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are reported using a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and maximizes the use of unobservable inputs and is as follows: | |||||||||||||||||
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3—Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability. | |||||||||||||||||
The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities using the above input categories (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013 | |||||||||||||||||

Total liabilities measured at fair value | $ | — | $ | — | $ | 6,919 | $ | 6,919 | |||||||||
Marketable securities consist of available-for-sale securities that are reported at fair value, with the related unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity (deficit). The Company values cash equivalents and marketable securities using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing observable market inputs and, as such, classifies cash equivalents and marketable securities within Level 1 or Level 2. | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, the Company held a Level 3 liability associated with warrants, issued in connection with the Company’s equity offerings, completed in September and October 2013. The warrants are considered liabilities and are valued using an option-pricing model, the significant unobservable inputs for which include exercise price of the warrants, market price of the underlying common shares, expected term, volatility based on a group of the Company’s peers and the risk-free rate corresponding to the expected term of the warrants. As of December 31, 2013, the Company also held a Level 3 liability associated with a forward contract which arose in connection with the Company’s November 22, 2013 execution of an equity purchase agreement with certain investors. The agreement required the Company to issue a fixed number of shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock at a predetermined price of $3.0 million provided the Company completes the listing of its common stock on a public stock exchange. The forward contract’s fair value was determined upon execution as the difference between the present value of the equity proceeds to be received under the agreement less the fair value of the underlying securities. The forward contract liability is presented in the balance sheet as a component of accrued liabilities and is revalued at each reporting period until the contract is settled which occurred on January 29, 2014. The fair value of the underlying common stock and warrants were valued using an option-pricing model, the inputs of which are similar to those used in the valuation of the Company’s liability classified warrants. Changes to any of the inputs to the option-pricing models used by the Company can have a significant impact to the estimated fair value of the warrants and forward contract liabilities. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis within the Level 3 hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of our Level 3 financial instruments (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||
Warrant | Forward | ||||||||||||||||
Liability | Contract | ||||||||||||||||
Balance as of December 31, 2012 | $ | — | $ | — | |||||||||||||
Issuance of financial instrument | 5,972 | 453 | |||||||||||||||
Change in fair value | 494 | — | |||||||||||||||
Balance as of December 31, 2013 | $ | 6,466 | $ | 453 | |||||||||||||
The gains and losses from remeasurement of Level 3 financial liabilities are recorded through other income, net on the accompanying statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities | |||||||||||||||||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with commercial banks in checking, interest-bearing, and demand money market accounts. The Company invests excess cash in marketable securities with high credit ratings which are classified in Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These securities consist primarily of corporate debt and asset-backed securities and are classified as “available-for-sale.” Management may liquidate any of these investments in order to meet the Company’s liquidity needs in the next year. Accordingly, any investments with accompanying contractual maturities greater than one year from the balance sheet date are classified as short-term in the balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Realized gains and losses from the sale of marketable securities, if any, are calculated using the specific-identification method. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than- temporary are included in interest income or expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the balance sheet. To date, the Company has not recorded any impairment charges on its marketable securities related to other-than-temporary declines in market value. In determining whether a decline in market value is other-than-temporary, various factors are considered, including the cause, duration of time and severity of the impairment, any adverse changes in the investees’ financial condition, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in market value. | |||||||||||||||||
Restricted Cash | |||||||||||||||||
The Company is required to maintain compensating cash balances with financial institutions that provide the Company with its corporate credit cards. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, cash restricted under these arrangements was $155,000 and none, respectively. These amounts are presented in other assets on the accompanying balance sheets. | |||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||||
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities consist of financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk to the extent of the fair value recorded in the balance sheet. The Company invests cash that is not required for immediate operating needs primarily in highly liquid instruments that bear minimal risk. The Company has established guidelines relating to the quality, diversification, and maturities of securities to enable the Company to manage its credit risk. | |||||||||||||||||
Property and Equipment | |||||||||||||||||
Property and equipment is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method, and the cost is amortized over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives or the non-cancelable term of the related lease. Maintenance and repair costs are charged as expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss as incurred. | |||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | |||||||||||||||||
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the estimated undiscounted future cash flow expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of an asset is less than the carrying amount. While the Company’s current and historical operating losses and cash flows are indicators of impairment, the Company believes the future cash flows to be received support the carrying value of its long-lived assets. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any impairment losses as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent | |||||||||||||||||
The Company records its costs under facility operating lease agreements as rent expense. Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the operating lease. The difference between the actual amounts paid and amounts recorded as rent expense is recorded to deferred rent in the accompanying balance sheets. | |||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | |||||||||||||||||
The Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed and determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received in advance of work performed are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized when earned. All revenue recognized to date under collaboration agreements has been nonrefundable. | |||||||||||||||||
In 2012, contract revenue was from two strategic partners. There was no contract revenue recorded for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
Multiple Element Arrangements | |||||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates revenue from agreements that have multiple elements to determine whether the components of the arrangement represent separate units of accounting. Management considers whether components of an arrangement represent separate units of accounting based upon whether certain criteria are met, including whether the delivered element has stand-alone value to the customer. To date, all of the Company’s collaboration agreements have been assessed to have one unit of accounting. Up-front and license fees received for a combined unit of accounting have been deferred and recognized ratably over the projected performance period. Non-refundable fees where the Company has no continuing performance obligations have been recognized as revenue when collection is reasonably assured and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. | |||||||||||||||||
Milestones and Contingent Payments | |||||||||||||||||
Contingent consideration received from the achievement of a substantive milestone will be recognized in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. A milestone is defined as an event having all of the following characteristics: (i) there is substantive uncertainty at the date the arrangement is entered into that the event will be achieved, (ii) the event can only be achieved based in whole or in part on either the company’s performance or a specific outcome resulting from the company’s performance and (iii) if achieved, the event would result in additional payments being due to the Company. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s future research and development and license agreements may provide for success fees or payments to be paid to the Company upon the achievement of certain development milestones. Given the challenges inherent in developing biologic products, there may be substantial uncertainty as to whether any such milestones would be achieved at the time the agreements are executed. In addition, the Company will evaluate whether the development milestones meet all of the conditions to be considered substantive. The conditions include: (1) the consideration is commensurate with either of the following: (a) the Company’s performance to achieve the milestone or (b) the enhancement of the value of the delivered item or items as a result of a specific outcome resulting from the Company’s performance to achieve the milestone; (2) the consideration relates solely to past performance; and (3) the consideration is reasonable relative to all of the deliverables and payment terms within the arrangement. If the Company considers the development milestones to be substantive, revenue related to such future milestone payments will be recognized as the Company achieves each milestone. Research and development funding internal and external research and development costs reimbursed in connection with research and development funding or collaboration agreements are recognized as revenue in the same period as the costs are incurred, and are presented on a gross basis because the Company acts as a principal, has the discretion to choose suppliers, bears credit risk, and performs part of the services. | |||||||||||||||||
Research and Development Expenses | |||||||||||||||||
Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred in identifying, developing, and testing product candidates. These expenses consist primarily of costs for research and development personnel, including related stock-based compensation; contract research organizations and other third parties that assist in managing, monitoring, and analyzing clinical trials; investigator and site fees; laboratory services; consultants; contract manufacturing services; non-clinical studies, including materials; and allocated expenses, such as depreciation of assets, and facilities and information technology that support research and development activities. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, including expenses that may or may not be reimbursed under research and development funding arrangements. Research and development expenses under collaboration agreements approximate the revenue recognized under such agreements. | |||||||||||||||||
The expenses related to clinical trials are based upon estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with research institutions and clinical research organizations (CROs) that conduct and manage clinical trials on behalf of the Company. The Company’s objective is to reflect the appropriate trial expenses in its financial statements by matching those expenses with the period in which services and efforts are incurred. Expenses related to clinical trials are accrued based upon the level of activity incurred under each contract as indicated by such factors as progress made against specified milestones or targets in each period, patient enrollment levels, and other trial activities as reported by CROs. Accordingly, the Company’s clinical trial accrual is dependent upon the timely and accurate reporting of expenses by clinical research organizations and other third-party vendors. Payments made to third parties under these clinical trial arrangements in advance of the receipt of the related services are recorded as prepaid assets, depending on the terms of the agreement, until the services are rendered. | |||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||
Employee and director stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair-value-based measurements of the stock awards, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the related vesting periods, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company calculates the fair-value-based measurements of options using the Black-Scholes valuation model and recognizes expense using the straight-line attribution method. | |||||||||||||||||
Equity awards granted to non-employees are accounted for using the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value-based measurements of such instruments. The fair value-based measurements of options and warrants granted to non-employees are re-measured over the related vesting period and amortized to expense as earned. | |||||||||||||||||
Common Stock Warrants | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s outstanding common stock warrants issued in with the 2013 financing are classified as liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets as they contain provisions that could require the Company to settle the warrants in cash. The warrants were recorded at fair value using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model, probability weighted expected return model or a binomial model, depending on the characteristics of the warrants. The fair value of these warrants is re-measured at each financial reporting period with any changes in fair value being recognized as a component of other income (expense) in the accompanying statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||||
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that all or part of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. | |||||||||||||||||
The accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company records interest related to income taxes, if any, as interest, and any penalties would be recorded as other expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. There was no interest or penalties related to income taxes recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Loss | |||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive loss includes net loss and net unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities, which are presented in a single continuous statement. Comprehensive loss is disclosed in the statements of convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit, and is stated net of related tax effects, if any. | |||||||||||||||||
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share | |||||||||||||||||
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding equivalents during the period. Prior to the 2013 financing, in addition to common stock, the Company had redeemable convertible preferred stock outstanding that contractually entitled the holder to participate in dividends and earnings of the Company. Accordingly, the Company applied the two-class method for calculating net income (loss) per share. Under this method, all undistributed earnings were allocated first to the preferred stockholders based on their contractual right to dividends. This right was calculated on a pro rated basis for the portion of the period the preferred shares were outstanding. In addition, in connection with the 2013 financing, during the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company converted all outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock into common stock. The excess of the carrying amount of such redeemable convertible preferred stock over the fair value of the consideration paid to the holders was treated as an adjustment that reduced preferred stockholders’ dividend or distribution entitlement. The amount of earnings that resulted from adjusting net loss for the period as described above was allocated between weighted average number of participating preferred and common stock shares based on their entitlement to such distributions as if all of the earnings of the period had been distributed. | |||||||||||||||||
Diluted net loss per share of common stock is calculated using the more dilutive of the two approaches: one, “as-converted” method, under which the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the period is adjusted to include the assumed conversion of redeemable convertible preferred stock at the beginning of the period, and the other, the “two-class” method as described above. Under either approach, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is also adjusted to include the assumed exercises of stock options and warrants, if dilutive. For periods in which the Company has basic net loss per share of common stock, such as for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic, as any adjustments would have been anti-dilutive. For the year ending December 31, 2013, the Company’s diluted net loss per common share was calculated using the “as-converted” method, as it resulted in a net loss per share of common stock and accordingly, was more dilutive than the “two-class” method. | |||||||||||||||||
In all periods presented, the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants were excluded from the calculation of earnings (loss) per share because the effect would be antidilutive. | |||||||||||||||||

JJDC Convertible Note | |||||
On June 20, 2006 the Company entered into a equity and loan facility with the Johnson and Johnson Development Corporation (“JJDC”) pursuant to which the Company could drawn down up to an aggregate of $30 million in loans in the form of convertible preferred stock promissory notes. In March and September 2008, the Company issued notes in the aggregate amount of $3.5 million and $10.5 million, respectively. The notes were due on March 17 and September 17, 2011, including interest that accrued at 7.57% per annum. In December 2010, the aggregate principal amount and all accrued interest under the notes issued in March and September 2008 were converted into the Company’s Series E-3 convertible preferred stock (Series E-3 Preferred) at 232.93 per share. | |||||
In February and July 2009, the Company issued notes in the aggregate amount of $7.0 million and $6.7 million, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the equity and loan facility with JJDC. The notes were due in February 2012 and July 2012, including interest that accrued at 4.42% per annum and 4.960% per annum, respectively. In January 2012, the Company amended the maturity dates of the outstanding $7.0 million and $6.7 million convertible promissory notes to extend the maturity date to March 1, 2013, and interest rates were increased to 4.919% and 5.46% per annum, respectively. In addition, the conversion price of the notes to convert into shares of the Company’s Series C-1 Preferred Stock was decreased from $438.84 per share to $292.56 per share. All of these notes were further amended in March 2013, to extend the maturity date on the notes to August 1, 2013, and to make the notes subordinate to repayment of the Company’s severance obligations to all employees until January 1, 2014. On July 31, 2013, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2013. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $0.7 million respectively, of interest expense related to the convertible promissory notes. On September 30, 2013, the outstanding principal and accrued interest of $16.9 million under the equity and loan facility with JJDC was extinguished in exchange for the issuance of 624,944 shares of common stock as an integral part of the 2013 finance restructuring. | |||||
Facility Loan | |||||
On September 30, 2013, the Company entered into a facility loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and Oxford Finance for a total loan amount of $10.0 million of which the first tranche of $5.0 million was drawn as part of the 2013 financing and bears interest at a rate equal 8.75% per annum. The second tranche of $5.0 million will be made available to the Company only upon achievement of positive Phase 2b data (the second draw milestone) and shall remain available to the Company until June 30, 2015. Loans under the second tranche will bear interest at a rate fixed at the time of borrowing equal to the greater of (i) 8.75% per annum and (ii) the sum of the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 4.25% per annum. | |||||
For each tranche borrowed, the Company is required to make 12 monthly interest only payments after the funding date followed by a repayment schedule equal to 36 equal monthly payments of interest and principal. After the 36-month amortization period of each tranche, the remaining balance of such tranche and a final payment equal to 6.50% of the original principal amount of the applicable tranche are payable on the maturity date of such tranche. The final payment equal to 6.50% of the original principal is being accreted over the life of the loan. | |||||
Future principal payments due under the loan facility are as follows (in thousands): | |||||

Total future principal payments due under loan agreement | $ | 5,000 | |||
During the loan term, the term loan facility provides that the Company must maintain compliance with one of two financial covenants at all times: (1) maintain 1.3 times cash to outstanding debt or (2) maintain sufficient cash on hand to support eight months of operations based on a trailing average monthly cash burn. The term loan facility also contains a series of performance covenants however failure to comply with these performance covenants shall not be an event of default under the term loan facility so long as the Company deposits an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate outstanding term loans in a segregated, blocked deposit account at Silicon Valley Bank. As of December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with its loan covenants. | |||||
The Company is permitted to make voluntary prepayments of the term loans with a prepayment fee equal to 3% of the term loans prepaid. The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of the outstanding term loans upon the acceleration by the lenders of such loans following the occurrence of an event of default, along with a payment of the final payment, the prepayment fee and any all other obligations that are due and payable at the time of the prepayment. | |||||
The Company was required to pay a facility fee of 1.00% on the term loan facility commitment. In addition, at the time of the facility loan drawdown, the Company issued warrants exercisable for a total of 121,739 shares of the Company’s common stock to the lenders at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. As a result of this a warrant liability of $0.5 million was recorded in the accompanying balance sheet as of September 30, 2013. The facility fee, the warrant value on its issuance date, and other debt issuance costs were reflected as a debt discount and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the outstanding loan using the effective interest rate method. The liability classified warrants must be remeasured at fair value on each reporting date and changes in fair value are recorded as other income, net in the accompanying statement of operations (see Note 11 for more details). |

Indemnification | |||||
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for general indemnification, including indemnification associated with product liability or infringement of intellectual property rights. The Company’s exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves future claims that may be made against the Company that may be, but have not yet been, made. To date, the Company has not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to these indemnification obligations, and no amounts have been accrued in the accompanying balance sheets related to these indemnification obligations. | |||||
The Company has agreed to indemnify its executive officers and directors for losses and costs incurred in connection with certain events or occurrences, including advancing money to cover certain costs, subject to certain limitations. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under this indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company maintains insurance policies that may limit its exposure and may enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. Assuming the applicability of coverage, the willingness of the insurer to assume coverage, and subject to certain retention, loss limits, and other policy provisions, the Company believes the fair value of these indemnification obligations is not material. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any liabilities relating to these obligations as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. No assurances can be given that the covering insurers will not attempt to dispute the validity, applicability, or amount of coverage without expensive litigation against these insurers, in which case the Company may incur substantial liabilities as a result of these indemnification obligations. |

9. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock | |||||||||||||||||
Upon the closing of the 2013 financing on September 30, 2013, all the outstanding shares of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock were converted into 2,793,281 shares of common stock, and the related carrying value of $320.0 million was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2013, no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock were issued or outstanding. | |||||||||||||||||
Prior to the September 30, 2013 conversion, the Company had the following series of outstanding convertible preferred stock (collectively, the Preferred Stock): Series A-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, Series E-1 Preferred and Series E-3 Preferred. Series E-1 Preferred and Series E-3 Preferred are collectively referred to as the Series E Preferred. The Preferred Stock was initially recorded at its original purchase price, which represented fair value on the date of issuance, net of issuance costs, if any. The original purchase price per share of Series A-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, and Series E Preferred was equal to $232.93, $232.93, $365.70, $232.94, and $232.93 per share, respectively. The preferred stock balances were recorded at the original fair value and the accreted dividends based on the per share terms at issuance of Series A-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, and Series E Preferred, which were equal to $18.64, $18.64, $29.26, $18.64, and $18.64 per share per annum, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
The shares of Series B-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, and Series E Preferred were redeemable upon the request of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of outstanding shares of Series B-1 Preferred, voting as a separate class, and 51% of outstanding shares of Series D-1 Preferred and Series E Preferred, voting together as a separate class. In this event, the Company would have been required to redeem the shares in three equal annual installments, beginning in September 2021, at the applicable original purchase price per share. All shares of Preferred Stock were redeemable in the event of a change of control at their liquidation preferences. | |||||||||||||||||
As all Preferred Stock was redeemable either at the option of the holder or upon an event outside the control of the Company (i.e., a change in control), the related amounts have been presented outside of stockholders’ equity (deficit). In August and December 2003, the Company completed two closings of a private placement of Series B-1 Preferred, in which the Company issued a total of 136,520 shares at a price of $232.93 per share for gross proceeds of $31.8 million. In November and December 2004, the Company completed two further closings of Series B-1 Preferred, in which the Company issued a total of 188,894 shares at a price of $232.93 per share for gross proceeds of $44.0 million. The Series B-1 Preferred investors in these two final closings also purchased warrants for 29,245 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $30.21 per share, with an exercise period of five years from the date of purchase, for $1.51 cents per share of common stock covered by the warrants. In November 2009, the exercise period of these warrants was extended to December 31, 2011. In December 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors reduced the number of shares exercisable under these warrant by 45% of the original shares and approved the extension of the exercise period until April 1, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, warrants to purchase 13,160 shares of common stock were outstanding. In April 2013, these warrants expired in accordance with their terms. | |||||||||||||||||
In August 2006, the Company issued 27,345 shares of Series C-1 Preferred to JJDC at a price of $365.70 per share, for gross proceeds of $10.0 million. | |||||||||||||||||
In April 2007, the Company issued 137,592 shares of Series D-1 Preferred at a price of $232.94 per share, for gross proceeds of $32.0 million. In connection with the issuance, the Series D-1 Preferred investors also purchased warrants for an aggregate of 20,639 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $22.13 per share, with an exercise period of five years from the date of purchase, for $0.79 cents per share of common stock covered by the warrants. | |||||||||||||||||
In August 2008, the Company repurchased 646, 1,610 and 472 shares of Series A-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred and Series D-1 Preferred, respectively, and a warrant for 71 shares of common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $82,000. The Company allocated the purchase price among the preferred shares and warrant based upon their respective fair values. | |||||||||||||||||
In November 2009, the Company issued 1,288 shares of Series E-1 Preferred upon the conversion of debt issued under a loan agreement. In June and December 2010, the Company issued 859 and 37,119 shares of Series E-1 Preferred, respectively, upon conversion of debt issued under a loan agreement. | |||||||||||||||||
In December 2010, the Company issued 71,543 shares of Series E-3 Preferred upon conversion of the JJDC convertible notes that were due in 2011 (Note 7). | |||||||||||||||||

The significant rights, privileges, and preferences of the Preferred Stock were as follows: | |||||||||||||||||
Election of Directors | |||||||||||||||||
Prior to the September 30, 2013 conversion, the holders of Series B-1 Preferred were entitled to elect five members of the Company’s Board of Directors, the holders of Series D-1 Preferred were entitled to elect one member of the Company’s Board of Directors, and the holders of common stock were entitled to elect one member of the Company’s Board of Directors, subject to certain restrictions. All remaining members of the Company’s Board of Directors were elected by all of the stockholders voting on an as-if-converted basis. | |||||||||||||||||
Voting Rights | |||||||||||||||||
Prior to the September 30, 2013 conversion, the Preferred Stock carried voting rights equal to the number of shares of common stock into which it could be converted. Additionally, certain corporate actions could only be exercised upon the approval of holders of 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series B-1 Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred, voting together as a single class, and 51% of the outstanding shares of Series D-1 Preferred and Series E Preferred, voting together as a single class. | |||||||||||||||||
Dividends | |||||||||||||||||
All dividends were payable when and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. The holders of Series E Preferred were entitled to cumulative dividends in preference to the holders of Series A-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, and common stock. The holders of Series D-1 Preferred were entitled to cumulative dividends in preference to the holders of Series A-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, and common stock. The holders of Series B-1 Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred were entitled to cumulative dividends in preference to the holders of Series A-1 Preferred and common stock. The holders of Series A-1 Preferred were entitled to cumulative dividends in preference to the holders of common stock. The dividend rate was $18.64, $18.64, $29.26, $18.64, and $18.64 per annum for each outstanding share of Series E Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, and Series A-1 Preferred, respectively. Additionally, if dividends were paid to any holder of common stock, the holders of Preferred Stock would receive a dividend of a per share amount (on an as-if-converted to common stock basis) equal to the amount paid to the holders of common stock. | |||||||||||||||||
No dividends were declared as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. Prior to the conversion of the Preferred Stock in connection with the 2013 financing, the aggregate cumulative dividends as of September 30, 2013, were $3.4 million ($47.28 per share), $1.9 million ($48.14 per share), $15.9 million ($116.00 per share), $5.6 million ($201.83 per share), $63.1 million ($168.96 per share), and $2.3 million ($183.64 per share) for Series E-3 Preferred, Series E-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, and Series A-1 Preferred, respectively. The aggregate cumulative dividends as of December 31, 2012, were $2.7 million ($38.04 per share), 1.5 million ($38.90 per share), $14.6 million ($106.75 per share), $5.1 million ($187.32 per share), $59.6 million ($159.72 per share), and $2.2 million ($174.40 per share) for Series E-3 Preferred, Series E-1 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, and Series A-1 Preferred, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Liquidation Preference | |||||||||||||||||
While the Preferred Stock was outstanding, in the event of a liquidation, dissolution, winding up, or change in control of the Company, the liquidation preference of each stockholder class was to be paid in the following order, from available funds: first to the holders of Series E-1 Preferred and Series E-3 Preferred, second to the holders of Series D-1 Preferred, third to the holders of Series B-1 Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred, and fourth to the holders of Series A-1 Preferred. After payment of the Preferred Stock liquidation preferences, the remaining assets of the Company were to be distributed ratably to all holders of common stock and Preferred Stock on an as-if-converted basis. The liquidation preference of Series E-1 Preferred, Series E-3 Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, Series C-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, and Series A-1 Preferred was equal to $465.87, $290.97, $232.93, $365.70, $232.93, and $232.93 per share, respectively, plus any cumulative unpaid dividends. If there were insufficient funds available to satisfy each liquidation preference in its entirety, the holders of Preferred Stock were to be paid a pro rata amount based on their liquidation preference. | |||||||||||||||||
Conversion Rights | |||||||||||||||||
Each share of Preferred Stock was convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock at then applicable conversion rate. The conversion rate for each of the series of Preferred Stock was 1:1, except for the Series D-1 Preferred, which had a conversion rate of 1.365:1. With respect to the Series E Preferred, Series D-1 Preferred, Series B-1 Preferred, and Series A-1 Preferred, if the Company issued common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock at a price less than the respective original purchase price per share, the conversion rate of such stock was to be adjusted to the lowest price per share paid in such issuance. The conversion rate for Preferred Stock would not be adjusted for common stock issuances on the exercise of options or warrants issued to employees, directors, or consultants of the Company and in certain other circumstances. | |||||||||||||||||
Each share of Preferred Stock automatically converted into common stock upon the approval of holders of 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series B-1 Preferred, voting as a separate class, and 51% of the outstanding shares of Series D-1 Preferred and Series E Preferred, voting together as a separate class, or upon the closing of an underwritten public offering of the Company’s common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at a per share price of at least $8.00, and raising aggregate gross proceeds of at least $30.0 million. In connection with the 2013 financing each holder of the Company’s preferred stock that participated in the 2013 financing for between 1% and up to 99% of such holders “Pro Rata Share” (as defined in the Company’s then effective certificate of incorporation) had each share of preferred stock represented by such participation amount converted into four shares of common stock and the balance of any shares of preferred stock converted at the then applicable conversion rate. Any holder that participated in the 2013 financing for between 100% and 300% of such holder’s Pro Rata Share (the “Participation Multiple”) had each share of preferred stock convert into shares of common stock by multiplying the product of (y) the aggregate number of shares of preferred stock held by such holder multiplied by the applicable Participation Multiple and (z) four (4). |

Common Stock Issuances in the 2013 Financing | |||||||||
On September 30, 2013, all the outstanding shares of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock were converted into 2,793,281 shares of common stock and the related carrying value of $320.0 million was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. | |||||||||
Commencing on September 30, 2013, the Company entered into a series of financing transactions (collectively referred to as the 2013 financing) which resulted in the issuance of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Specifically, on September 30, 2013, the Company sold 5,366,669 shares of common stock and 1,073,338 warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a private placement for net proceeds to CymaBay of $22.8 million after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. Also on that date, the Company issued 624,944 shares of common stock in cancellation of approximately $16.9 million of debt owed to JJDC, the holder of that debt (Note 7). | |||||||||
On October 31, 2013, the Company sold an additional 664,300 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 132,860 shares of common stock, which sales were also part of the private placement, for net proceeds to CymaBay of $2.2 million after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. | |||||||||
On November 22, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with investors to purchase 604,000 shares of common stock and 120,800 warrants to purchase shares of common stock as part of the private placement for net proceeds of $2.7 million, which sales were set to occur shortly after the listing of the Company’s common stock on the over-the-counter market. Cymabay began trading on the over-the-counter market on January 24, 2014 enabling this portion of the financing to be completed in late January 2014. | |||||||||
Common Stock Warrants | |||||||||
In connection with 2013 financing and the Company’s private placement of common stock and warrants, in September and October 2013, the Company issued five-year warrants to purchase 1,620,988 shares of CymaBay’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.75 per share which we refer to here as our 2013 financing warrants. The Company also issued five-year warrants to purchase 121,739 shares of CymaBay’s common stock to its lenders at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The 2013 financing warrants contain provisions that are contingent on the occurrence of a change in control, which would conditionally obligate the Company to repurchase the warrants for cash in an amount equal to their fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (the “Black-Scholes Model”) on the date of such change in control. Due to these provisions, the Company is required to account for the 2013 financing warrants issued in September and October 2013 as a liability at fair value. In addition, the estimated liability related to the 2013 financing warrants is required to be revalued at each reporting period until the earlier of the exercise of the warrants, at which time the liability will be reclassified to stockholders’ equity, or expiration of the warrants. At issuance date, the fair value of the 2013 financing warrant liability was estimated to be $6.0 million. These warrants were revalued at fair value as of December 31, 2013 using a binomial lattice model and the resulting increase in fair value of $0.5 million was recorded as an increase to the warrant liability and as a loss in other income, net in the Company’s Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. | |||||||||
In November 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the extension of the time period in which the holders of warrants to purchase 29,245 shares of common stock are able to exercise their warrants that were issued in connection with the issuance of Series B-1 Preferred. The exercise periods of the warrants that originally ended in November 2009 were extended to December 31, 2010. In December 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors further modified these warrants. The number of common shares exercisable under the warrants was reduced by 50% to 14,623, and the exercise period was extended to December 31, 2012. In December 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors again modified these warrants to purchase common stock. The number of shares exercisable under the warrants issued with the issuance of the Series B-1 Preferred was reduced by 45% of the original shares to 13,163, and the exercise period was extended to April 1, 2013. The extension of the agreement did not cause a material change in value. In April 2013, these warrants expired. | |||||||||
In December 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors modified the warrants to purchase common stock that were issued in connection with the issuance of Series D-1 Preferred. The exercise period of the warrants issued in connection with the Series D-1 Preferred issuance was extended to April 13, 2013. The charge related to the modifications to these warrants of $0.1 million was recorded to accumulated deficit and was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, with the following inputs used to determine the charge related to the modification: fair value of the Company’s common stock of $15.90 per share, expected life of the modified warrants of one to two years, risk-free interest rate of 0.50%, and expected common stock price volatility of 83%. In April 2013, these warrants expired. | |||||||||

Stock Plans | |||||||||||||||||
In September 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (2013 Plan), under which shares of common stock are reserved for the granting of options, stock bonuses, and restricted stock awards by the Company. These awards may be granted to employees, members of the Board of Directors, and consultants to the Company. The 2013 Plan has a term of ten years and replaced the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, which had similar terms. The 2013 Plan permits the Company to (i) grant incentive stock options to directors and employees at not less than 100% of the fair value of common stock on the date of grant; (ii) grant nonqualified options to employees, directors, and consultants at not less than 85% of fair value; (iii) award stock bonuses; and (iv) grant rights to acquire restricted stock at not less than 85% of fair value. Options generally vest over a four- or five-year period and have a term of ten years. Options granted to 10% stockholders have a maximum term of five years and require an exercise price equal to at least 110% of the fair value on the date of grant. The exercise price of all options granted to date has been at least equal to the fair value of common stock on the date of grant. | |||||||||||||||||
Restricted stock units, which had been previously granted in 2007 pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, vested over a four- or five-year period, subject to certain performance conditions, and terminated on August 19, 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Stock Plan Activity | |||||||||||||||||
In December 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors modified the terms of 60,847 stock options held by employees, directors, and scientific advisory board members. Specifically, the exercise price for such options was reduced to $5, the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of modification, and the term of each option was extended to 10 years from the date of the modification. The Company will account for this stock option modification by recognizing any unamortized expense related to the original unmodified options as of the modification date over the remaining vesting periods of those awards. The incremental expense resulting from this modification of $0.2 million will also be recognized over the remaining vesting period. As substantially all of the modified awards were fully vested on the modification date, the Company recognized $0.2 million of noncash stock-based compensation expense related to this stock option modification in December 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, 41 shares were available for issuance under the 2013 plan. In accordance with the provisions of the Company’s 2013 Equity Plan, the number of shares available for issuance under the plan automatically increased by 472,753 shares on January 1, 2014. | |||||||||||||||||

Expected Term | |||||||||||||||||
The Company does not believe it can currently place reliance on its historical exercise and post-vesting termination activity to provide accurate data for estimating the expected term. Therefore, for stock option grants made during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has opted to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term which is an average of the contractual term of the options and its ordinary vesting period. The expected term represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding. | |||||||||||||||||
Expected Volatility | |||||||||||||||||
As the Company does not have any trading history for its common stock, the expected stock price volatility for the Company’s common stock was estimated by considering the volatility rates of similar publicly traded peer entities within the life sciences industry. | |||||||||||||||||
Risk-Free Interest Rate | |||||||||||||||||
The risk-free interest rate assumption was based on U.S. Treasury instruments with constant maturities whose term was consistent with the expected term of stock options granted by the Company. | |||||||||||||||||
Expected Dividend Yield | |||||||||||||||||
The Company has never declared or paid cash dividends and does not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero. | |||||||||||||||||
Common Stock Fair Value | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s Board of Directors has historically determined the fair value of the Company’s common stock for the purpose of pricing the Company’s equity awards to employees, directors, and consultants. As there has been no public market for the Company’s common stock, the Company’s Board of Directors, in making such fair value determinations, considered a number of factors, including the price at which Preferred Stock was issued to outside investors in arm’s-length transactions, the rights, preferences, and privileges of the Preferred Stock relative to the common stock, important developments relating to advancement of the Company’s technology and clinical programs, the Company’s stage of development and business strategy, the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event for the shares of common stock, such as an initial public offering or sale of the Company, prevailing market conditions, and the market prices of various publicly held life sciences companies. Additionally, the Board of Directors considered contemporaneous valuations provided by third-party valuation specialists. | |||||||||||||||||
Forfeitures | |||||||||||||||||
The Company estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and revises these estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Changes in forfeiture estimates impact compensation in the period in which the change occurs. | |||||||||||||||||
The total intrinsic value of options exercised was none for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Vested and Unvested Awards | |||||||||||||||||
The total fair value of options vested for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, and 2012 the total compensation expense related to unvested employee stock options to be recognized in future periods, excluding estimated forfeitures, was $1.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The weighted-average periods over which this compensation expense is expected to be recognized are 3.9 years and 2.0 years as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Incentive Awards | |||||||||||||||||
In December 2013, as permitted by the 2013 Equity Plan, the Company issued certain incentive awards to directors, employees and a consultant which are indexed to 220,266 shares of the Company’s common stock and are exercisable at $5 per share when vested. The Company may determine at its option whether to settle exercised awards in shares of common stock or in cash. Each recipient’s incentive award defines the number of common shares that may be acquired upon exercise provided the Company chooses to settle in shares. For awards settled in cash, the Company must pay the recipient the excess of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise over the $5 exercise price paid by the recipient multiplied by the number of shares the recipient would be entitled to receive had the award been settled in shares of the Company’s common stock. | |||||||||||||||||
The incentive awards vest 100% on the second anniversary of their grant date and have a term of 10 years. If before this vest date the Company’s shareholders approve an increase to the 2013 plan’s shares available for issuance by 220,266, the incentive awards shall automatically be modified to vest monthly over four years effective from their grant date. | |||||||||||||||||
The incentive award is a stock based compensation arrangement. As of December 31, 2013, the Company did not have sufficient shares available for issuance to settle the incentive awards in stock. Accordingly, settlement in cash is deemed more likely as of the balance sheet date. The Company accounted for these cash settled awards as a liability and will remeasure the awards at fair value at each reporting date until settled. Compensation expense and the related incentive award liability will be recognized over the vesting period of the incentive awards. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company recorded the fair value of the incentive awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using a stock price of $5, an exercise prices of $5, an expected term of 6 years, a volatility of 92%, and a dividend yield of 0% which resulted in a grant date fair value of $3.76 per share underlaying the incentive awards. The Company recorded $9,000 of compensation expense pertaining to incentive awards for the year ended December 31, 2013. The corresponding incentive award liability is presented in other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Restricted Stock Units | |||||||||||||||||
No restricted stock units were granted or were vested in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. No restricted stock units were outstanding as of December 31, 2013. Nine restricted stock units were outstanding as of December 31 ,2012, and had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $238.50 per share and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 0.64 years. No expense has been recorded to date related to the Company’s restricted stock units, as no restricted stock units have vested. Vesting of the restricted stock units was contingent upon either an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock or a change in control. | |||||||||||||||||

In January 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors canceled outstanding employee options under the 1993 Stock Option Plan and replaced them with new options to purchase 1,230 shares of common stock under the 2003 Plan at an exercise price of $30.21 per share. These replacement options were fully vested on the grant date and are exercisable for ten years, or 18 months after an initial public offering, if earlier. All replacement options are being accounted for as variable from the date of issuance to the date the options are exercised, forfeited or expire. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, as a result of decreases in the fair market value of its common stock, the Company did not record any compensation expense related to these options. | |||||||||||||||||
Non-Employee Expense | |||||||||||||||||
The Company has issued options to purchase shares of common stock to members of its Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) and certain consultants. The stock options have various exercise prices, a term of ten years, and vest over periods up to sixty months. In 2013 and 2012, the Company granted to its SAB members and consultants options to purchase 6,833 and 3,145 shares of common stock, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, options to purchase 4,555 shares of common stock remained unvested, and compensation related to these stock options is subject to periodic adjustment as the shares vest. In 2013, the Company also issued an incentive award for 2,335 shares to an SAB member which remained unvested as of December 31, 2013. The Company recorded $17,000 and $6,000 of expense in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to these options and awards. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company has not recognized, and does not expect to recognize in the near future, any tax benefit related to employee stock-based compensation costs. |

No provision for U.S. income taxes exists due to tax losses incurred in all periods presented. Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and the net temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets are as follows (in thousands): | |||||||||

Net deferred tax assets | $ | — | $ | — | |||||
Realization of the net deferred tax assets is dependent upon future taxable income, if any, the amount and timing of which is uncertain. Based on the weight of available positive and negative objective evidence, management believes it more likely than not that the Company’s deferred tax assets are not realizable. Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. The net valuation allowance decreased by $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2013 and increased $4.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. | |||||||||

Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”), Section 382 and 383, use of the Company’s U.S. federal and state net operating loss and research and development income tax credit carryforwards may be limited in the event of a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50.0% within a three-year period. The Company completed an analysis under IRC Sections 382 and 383 through December 21, 2007 and determined that the Company’s net operating losses and research and development credits were subject to limitations due to changes in ownership through December 31, 2007. The net operating loss carryforwards reflected in the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 have been adjusted to reflect Section 382 limitations resulting from the ownership change As the Company was in a net operating loss position for the year 2013 and 2012, the Company has not performed any additional analysis for IRC Sections 382 and 383 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. There is a risk that additional changes in ownership could have occurred since December 31, 2007. If a change in ownership were to have occurred, additional net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards could be eliminated or restricted. If eliminated, the related asset would be removed from the deferred tax asset schedule with a corresponding reduction in the valuation allowance. | |||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of $152.1 million and state net operating loss carryforwards of $152.2 million to offset future taxable income, if any. In addition, we had federal research and development tax credit carry forwards of $6.2 million and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $3.2 million. If not utilized, the federal net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards will expire beginning in 2024 through 2033 and the state net operating loss carryforwards will expire beginning in 2014 through 2033. The state tax credit will carry forward indefinitely. | |||||||||

The unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would not have an impact on the Company’s effective tax rate.

The unrecognized tax benefits may increase or change during the next year for items that arise in the ordinary course of business. | |||||||||
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and California jurisdiction and is not currently under examination by federal, state, or local taxing authorities for any open tax years. The tax years 1998 through 2013 remain open to examination by the major taxing authorities. |

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates | |||||||||||||||||
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), which requires management to make informed estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company believes significant judgment is involved in determining revenue recognition and in estimating stock-based compensation, clinical trial accruals, and equity instrument valuations. | |||||||||||||||||

Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, warrant liabilities, forward contracts, and convertible notes. Fair value estimates of these instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information. These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses are generally considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. | |||||||||||||||||
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are reported using a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and maximizes the use of unobservable inputs and is as follows: | |||||||||||||||||
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3—Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability. | |||||||||||||||||
The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities using the above input categories (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||

Marketable securities consist of available-for-sale securities that are reported at fair value, with the related unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity (deficit). The Company values cash equivalents and marketable securities using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing observable market inputs and, as such, classifies cash equivalents and marketable securities within Level 1 or Level 2. | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, the Company held a Level 3 liability associated with warrants, issued in connection with the Company’s equity offerings, completed in September and October 2013. The warrants are considered liabilities and are valued using an option-pricing model, the significant unobservable inputs for which include exercise price of the warrants, market price of the underlying common shares, expected term, volatility based on a group of the Company’s peers and the risk-free rate corresponding to the expected term of the warrants. As of December 31, 2013, the Company also held a Level 3 liability associated with a forward contract which arose in connection with the Company’s November 22, 2013 execution of an equity purchase agreement with certain investors. The agreement required the Company to issue a fixed number of shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock at a predetermined price of $3.0 million provided the Company completes the listing of its common stock on a public stock exchange. The forward contract’s fair value was determined upon execution as the difference between the present value of the equity proceeds to be received under the agreement less the fair value of the underlying securities. The forward contract liability is presented in the balance sheet as a component of accrued liabilities and is revalued at each reporting period until the contract is settled which occurred on January 29, 2014. The fair value of the underlying common stock and warrants were valued using an option-pricing model, the inputs of which are similar to those used in the valuation of the Company’s liability classified warrants. Changes to any of the inputs to the option-pricing models used by the Company can have a significant impact to the estimated fair value of the warrants and forward contract liabilities. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis within the Level 3 hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of our Level 3 financial instruments (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities | |||||||||||||||||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits with commercial banks in checking, interest-bearing, and demand money market accounts. The Company invests excess cash in marketable securities with high credit ratings which are classified in Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These securities consist primarily of corporate debt and asset-backed securities and are classified as “available-for-sale.” Management may liquidate any of these investments in order to meet the Company’s liquidity needs in the next year. Accordingly, any investments with accompanying contractual maturities greater than one year from the balance sheet date are classified as short-term in the balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Realized gains and losses from the sale of marketable securities, if any, are calculated using the specific-identification method. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than- temporary are included in interest income or expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the balance sheet. To date, the Company has not recorded any impairment charges on its marketable securities related to other-than-temporary declines in market value. In determining whether a decline in market value is other-than-temporary, various factors are considered, including the cause, duration of time and severity of the impairment, any adverse changes in the investees’ financial condition, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in market value. | |||||||||||||||||
Restricted Cash | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Restricted Cash | |||||||||||||||||
The Company is required to maintain compensating cash balances with financial institutions that provide the Company with its corporate credit cards. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, cash restricted under these arrangements was $155,000 and none, respectively. These amounts are presented in other assets on the accompanying balance sheets. | |||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||||
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities consist of financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk to the extent of the fair value recorded in the balance sheet. The Company invests cash that is not required for immediate operating needs primarily in highly liquid instruments that bear minimal risk. The Company has established guidelines relating to the quality, diversification, and maturities of securities to enable the Company to manage its credit risk. | |||||||||||||||||
Property and Equipment | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Property and Equipment | |||||||||||||||||
Property and equipment is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method, and the cost is amortized over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives or the non-cancelable term of the related lease. Maintenance and repair costs are charged as expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss as incurred. | |||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | |||||||||||||||||
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the estimated undiscounted future cash flow expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of an asset is less than the carrying amount. While the Company’s current and historical operating losses and cash flows are indicators of impairment, the Company believes the future cash flows to be received support the carrying value of its long-lived assets. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any impairment losses as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent | |||||||||||||||||
The Company records its costs under facility operating lease agreements as rent expense. Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the operating lease. The difference between the actual amounts paid and amounts recorded as rent expense is recorded to deferred rent in the accompanying balance sheets. | |||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | |||||||||||||||||
The Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed and determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received in advance of work performed are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized when earned. All revenue recognized to date under collaboration agreements has been nonrefundable. | |||||||||||||||||
In 2012, contract revenue was from two strategic partners. There was no contract revenue recorded for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
Multiple Element Arrangements | |||||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates revenue from agreements that have multiple elements to determine whether the components of the arrangement represent separate units of accounting. Management considers whether components of an arrangement represent separate units of accounting based upon whether certain criteria are met, including whether the delivered element has stand-alone value to the customer. To date, all of the Company’s collaboration agreements have been assessed to have one unit of accounting. Up-front and license fees received for a combined unit of accounting have been deferred and recognized ratably over the projected performance period. Non-refundable fees where the Company has no continuing performance obligations have been recognized as revenue when collection is reasonably assured and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. | |||||||||||||||||
Milestones and Contingent Payments | |||||||||||||||||
Contingent consideration received from the achievement of a substantive milestone will be recognized in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. A milestone is defined as an event having all of the following characteristics: (i) there is substantive uncertainty at the date the arrangement is entered into that the event will be achieved, (ii) the event can only be achieved based in whole or in part on either the company’s performance or a specific outcome resulting from the company’s performance and (iii) if achieved, the event would result in additional payments being due to the Company. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s future research and development and license agreements may provide for success fees or payments to be paid to the Company upon the achievement of certain development milestones. Given the challenges inherent in developing biologic products, there may be substantial uncertainty as to whether any such milestones would be achieved at the time the agreements are executed. In addition, the Company will evaluate whether the development milestones meet all of the conditions to be considered substantive. The conditions include: (1) the consideration is commensurate with either of the following: (a) the Company’s performance to achieve the milestone or (b) the enhancement of the value of the delivered item or items as a result of a specific outcome resulting from the Company’s performance to achieve the milestone; (2) the consideration relates solely to past performance; and (3) the consideration is reasonable relative to all of the deliverables and payment terms within the arrangement. If the Company considers the development milestones to be substantive, revenue related to such future milestone payments will be recognized as the Company achieves each milestone. Research and development funding internal and external research and development costs reimbursed in connection with research and development funding or collaboration agreements are recognized as revenue in the same period as the costs are incurred, and are presented on a gross basis because the Company acts as a principal, has the discretion to choose suppliers, bears credit risk, and performs part of the services. | |||||||||||||||||
Research and Development Expenses | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Research and Development Expenses | |||||||||||||||||
Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred in identifying, developing, and testing product candidates. These expenses consist primarily of costs for research and development personnel, including related stock-based compensation; contract research organizations and other third parties that assist in managing, monitoring, and analyzing clinical trials; investigator and site fees; laboratory services; consultants; contract manufacturing services; non-clinical studies, including materials; and allocated expenses, such as depreciation of assets, and facilities and information technology that support research and development activities. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, including expenses that may or may not be reimbursed under research and development funding arrangements. Research and development expenses under collaboration agreements approximate the revenue recognized under such agreements. | |||||||||||||||||
The expenses related to clinical trials are based upon estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with research institutions and clinical research organizations (CROs) that conduct and manage clinical trials on behalf of the Company. The Company’s objective is to reflect the appropriate trial expenses in its financial statements by matching those expenses with the period in which services and efforts are incurred. Expenses related to clinical trials are accrued based upon the level of activity incurred under each contract as indicated by such factors as progress made against specified milestones or targets in each period, patient enrollment levels, and other trial activities as reported by CROs. Accordingly, the Company’s clinical trial accrual is dependent upon the timely and accurate reporting of expenses by clinical research organizations and other third-party vendors. Payments made to third parties under these clinical trial arrangements in advance of the receipt of the related services are recorded as prepaid assets, depending on the terms of the agreement, until the services are rendered. | |||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||
Employee and director stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair-value-based measurements of the stock awards, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the related vesting periods, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company calculates the fair-value-based measurements of options using the Black-Scholes valuation model and recognizes expense using the straight-line attribution method. | |||||||||||||||||
Equity awards granted to non-employees are accounted for using the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value-based measurements of such instruments. The fair value-based measurements of options and warrants granted to non-employees are re-measured over the related vesting period and amortized to expense as earned. | |||||||||||||||||
Common Stock Warrants | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Common Stock Warrants | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s outstanding common stock warrants issued in with the 2013 financing are classified as liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets as they contain provisions that could require the Company to settle the warrants in cash. The warrants were recorded at fair value using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model, probability weighted expected return model or a binomial model, depending on the characteristics of the warrants. The fair value of these warrants is re-measured at each financial reporting period with any changes in fair value being recognized as a component of other income (expense) in the accompanying statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||||
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that all or part of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. | |||||||||||||||||
The accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company records interest related to income taxes, if any, as interest, and any penalties would be recorded as other expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. There was no interest or penalties related to income taxes recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Loss | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Loss | |||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive loss includes net loss and net unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities, which are presented in a single continuous statement. Comprehensive loss is disclosed in the statements of convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit, and is stated net of related tax effects, if any. | |||||||||||||||||
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share | ' | ||||||||||||||||
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share | |||||||||||||||||
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding equivalents during the period. Prior to the 2013 financing, in addition to common stock, the Company had redeemable convertible preferred stock outstanding that contractually entitled the holder to participate in dividends and earnings of the Company. Accordingly, the Company applied the two-class method for calculating net income (loss) per share. Under this method, all undistributed earnings were allocated first to the preferred stockholders based on their contractual right to dividends. This right was calculated on a pro rated basis for the portion of the period the preferred shares were outstanding. In addition, in connection with the 2013 financing, during the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company converted all outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock into common stock. The excess of the carrying amount of such redeemable convertible preferred stock over the fair value of the consideration paid to the holders was treated as an adjustment that reduced preferred stockholders’ dividend or distribution entitlement. The amount of earnings that resulted from adjusting net loss for the period as described above was allocated between weighted average number of participating preferred and common stock shares based on their entitlement to such distributions as if all of the earnings of the period had been distributed. | |||||||||||||||||
Diluted net loss per share of common stock is calculated using the more dilutive of the two approaches: one, “as-converted” method, under which the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the period is adjusted to include the assumed conversion of redeemable convertible preferred stock at the beginning of the period, and the other, the “two-class” method as described above. Under either approach, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is also adjusted to include the assumed exercises of stock options and warrants, if dilutive. For periods in which the Company has basic net loss per share of common stock, such as for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic, as any adjustments would have been anti-dilutive. For the year ending December 31, 2013, the Company’s diluted net loss per common share was calculated using the “as-converted” method, as it resulted in a net loss per share of common stock and accordingly, was more dilutive than the “two-class” method. | |||||||||||||||||
In all periods presented, the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants were excluded from the calculation of earnings (loss) per share because the effect would be antidilutive. | |||||||||||||||||
