Note 1 - Organization and Business: | |
Generex Biotechnology Corporation (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Generex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are engaged in the research and development of drug delivery systems and technology. Since its inception, the Company has devoted its efforts and resources to the development of a platform technology for the oral administration of large molecule drugs, including proteins, peptides, monoclonal antibodies, hormones and vaccines, which historically have been administered by injection, either subcutaneously or intravenously. Oral-lynTM the first product based on this platform technology, is in various stages of regulatory approval in different jurisdictions around the world. | |
The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Antigen Express, Inc. (Antigen), is engaged in research and development of technologies and immunomedicines for the treatment of malignant, infectious, autoimmune and allergic diseases. The Company’s immunomedicine products work by stimulating the immune system to either attack offending agents (i.e., cancer cells, bacteria, and viruses) or to stop attacking benign elements (i.e., self proteins and allergens). The immunomedicine products are based on two platform technologies that were discovered by an executive officer of Antigen, the Ii-Key hybrid peptides and Ii-Suppression. These technologies are expected to greatly boost immune cell responses which diagnose and treat the ailments and conditions. | |
The Company has a limited history of operations and limited revenue to date. The Company has several product candidates that are in various research or early stages of pre-clinical and clinical development. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining regulatory clearance for the sale of existing or any future products or that any of the Company’s products will be commercially viable. |

Going Concern | ' |
Going Concern | |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $370 million and a working capital deficiency of approximately $4.8 million at July 31, 2014. The Company has funded its activities to date almost exclusively from debt and equity financings, as well as the recent sales of non-essential real estate assets in fiscal 2012, fiscal 2013 and the first quarter of fiscal 2014 (see Note 3). | |
The Company will continue to require substantial funds to continue research and development, including pre-clinical studies and clinical trials of its product candidates, and to commence sales and marketing efforts, if the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other regulatory approvals are obtained. Management’s plans in order to meet its operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of its common stock, preferred stock offerings, issuances of debt and convertible debt instruments. Management will be limited in the financing activities that the Company undertakes in the near future as the securities purchase agreements that the Company entered into on January 14, 2014 and March 27, 2014 with certain investors prohibit the Company from (i) issuing additional equity securities until 60 days after the effective date of a registration statement covering the resale of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and conversion of the preferred stock sold in those transactions; and (ii) issuing additional debt or equity securities with variable conversion or exercise prices until January 14, 2015 and March 27, 2015, respectively. Management is also actively pursuing financial and strategic alternatives, including strategic investments and divestitures, industry collaboration activities and strategic partners. Management has sold its non-essential real estate assets which were classified as Assets Held for Investment to augment its cash position. | |
These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved and that it will succeed in its future operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. The Company’s inability to obtain required funding in the near future or its inability to obtain funding on favorable terms will have a material adverse effect on its operations and strategic development plan for future growth. If the Company cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement its strategic development plan, its liquidity, financial condition and business prospects will be materially and adversely affected, and the Company may have to cease operations. | |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | ' | ||
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: | |||
Principles of Consolidation | |||
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. For those consolidated subsidiaries where the Company ownership is less than 100 percent, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as minority interests. Effective December 17, 2004, the Company’s ownership in all consolidated subsidiaries is 100 percent. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. | |||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. | |||
Property and Equipment | |||
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to thirty years. Gains and losses on depreciable assets retired or sold are recognized in the statement of operations in the year of disposal. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. | |||
Assets Held for Investment | |||
Property held for investment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of thirty years. Gains and losses on depreciable assets retired or sold are recognized in the statement of operations in the year of disposal. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. | |||
Patents | |||
Capitalized patent costs represent legal costs incurred to establish patents and a portion of the acquisition price paid attributed to patents upon the acquisition of Antigen in August 2003. When patents reach a mature stage, any associated legal costs are comprised mostly of maintenance fees and costs of national applications and are expensed as incurred. Capitalized patent costs are amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining life of the patent. As patents are abandoned, the net book value of the patent is written off. In the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, the Company recorded a write down of $440,780 on certain patents. There were no write downs or disposals in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2014 and 2013. | |||
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles | |||
The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets under FASB ASC Topic 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposal of the asset. In the fiscal years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company sold, wrote off or disposed of certain long-lived assets with net book values of $706,590, $745,172 and $2,945,079, respectively. | |||
Derivative Warrant Liability | |||
The Company’s derivative warrant instruments are measured at fair value using the binomial valuation model which takes into account, as of the valuation date, factors including the current exercise price, the expected life of the warrant, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the warrant. The liability is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Change in fair value of derivative warrant liability.” See Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. | |||
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue | |||
Revenues from the sale of commercial products are recognized at the time title of goods passes to the buyer and the buyer assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Certain product sales are made to retailers under agreements allowing for a right to return unsold products. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605, recognition of revenue on all sales to these retailers is deferred until the right of return expires, the product is sold to a third party or a provision for returns can be reasonably estimated based on historical experience. The cost of inventory under these sales is considered to be consigned inventory until the revenue is recognized. Sales are reported net of estimated returns and allowances, discounts, mail-in rebate redemptions and credit card chargebacks. If actual sales returns, allowances, discounts, mail-in rebate redemptions or credit card chargebacks are greater than estimated by management, additional expense may be incurred. At July 31, 2014, we have $223,662 of deferred revenue for which a provision for returns cannot be reasonably estimated and thus the balance is included in Deferred Revenue on our consolidated balance sheets. The corresponding cost of sales has been previously written off and is not included in inventory as of July 31, 2014 as the timing of the recognition of the revenue cannot be reasonably estimated. | |||
Grant revenue is recognized as the Company provides the services stipulated in the underlying grant based on the time and expenditures incurred. Amounts received in advance of services provided are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized as revenue when the services are provided. There was no grant revenue in fiscal 2014, 2013 or 2012. | |||
Included in miscellaneous income are fees received under licensing agreements. Nonrefundable fees received under licensing agreements are recognized as revenue when received if the Company has no continuing obligations to the other party. | |||
Rental income is recognized as revenue in the period in which the related rental space is occupied. | |||
Research and Development Costs | |||
Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred and include, among other costs, those related to the production of experimental drugs, including payroll costs, and amounts incurred for conducting clinical trials. Amounts expected to be received from governments under research and development tax credit arrangements are offset against current research and development expense. | |||
Income Taxes | |||
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method prescribed by FASB ASC Topic 740. These standards require a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely than not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. Deferred income taxes are recorded for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the tax rates expected to be in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. At July 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had a full valuation allowance equal to the amount of the net deferred tax asset. | |||
The Company adopted the FASB guidance concerning accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as of August 1, 2007. The guidance requires that the Company determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will not be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. If a tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition criterion, the guidance requires that the tax position be measured at the largest amount of benefit greater than 50 percent not likely of being sustained upon ultimate settlement. Based on the Company’s evaluation, management has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the consolidated financial statements. | |||
Stock-Based Compensation | |||
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 718 which requires that new, modified and unvested share-based payment transactions with employees, such as grants of stock options and restricted stock, be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value at the grant date and recognized as compensation expense over their vesting periods. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and restricted stock based on the quoted market price or the value of the services provided, whichever is more readily determinable. The Company also follows the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 505 for equity based payments to non-employees for equity instruments issued to consultants and other non-employees. | |||
Net Loss per Common Share | |||
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. Refer to Note 13 for methodology for determining net loss per share. | |||
Comprehensive Income/(Loss) | |||
Other comprehensive income/(loss), which includes only foreign currency translation adjustments, is shown in the Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. | |||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||
The Company maintains cash balances, at times, with financial institutions in excess of amounts insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation and the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Management monitors the soundness of these institutions and has not experienced any collection losses with these financial institutions. | |||
Foreign Currency Translation | |||
Foreign denominated assets and liabilities of the Company are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates in effect at the end of the reporting period. Income statement accounts are translated at a weighted average of exchange rates which were in effect during the period. Translation adjustments that arise from translating the foreign subsidiary’s financial statements from local currency to U.S. currency are recorded in the other comprehensive loss component of stockholders’ equity. | |||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||
Fair value is defined under FASB ASC Topic 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The levels are as follows: | |||
• | Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities | ||
• | Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities | ||
• | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities | ||
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, long-term debt, accounts payable and accrued expenses, as well as derivative warrant liabilities and derivative additional investment rights. All of these items, except for the derivative warrant liabilities and derivative additional investment rights, were determined to be Level 1 fair value measurements. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values because of the short maturities of these instruments. Long-term debt balances were determined to approximate their fair value as we believe the borrowing rates reflect the prevailing market rates available for similar debt instruments. | |||
The Company has determined its derivative warrant liability and its derivative additional investment rights liability to be Level 2 fair value measurements and has used the binomial lattice model valuation method to calculate the fair value of the derivative warrant liability and the derivative additional investment rights liability at July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. See Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. | |||
Use of Estimates | |||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. | |||
The Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, long lived assets (including patents) impairment valuations, debt obligations, derivatives, convertible preferred shares, long-term contracts, and contingencies and litigation, on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. | |||
Critical accounting estimates are reviewed and discussed with the audit committee of the board of directors. The Company considers an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, if changes in the estimate or if different estimates that could have been selected would have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. | |||
Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |||
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | |||
In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance regarding the elimination of the reporting requirement for development stage entities and removed the definition of development stage entity from the Accounting Standards Codification. The Company has adopted this guidance effective for the Company’s annual fiscal year ended July 31, 2014. The adoption of this new accounting guidance resulted in the elimination of the inception-to-date financial information in the consolidated statements of operations, statements of changes in stockholders’ deficiency and statements of cash flows, as well as the removal of the subheading “A Development Stage Company” from the consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated financial statements. | |||
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | |||
In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance regarding disclosure of uncertainties about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s annual fiscal year ended July 31, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements. |

In June 2014, the Company signed a lease extension for its office space in Toronto, Canada which runs from October 2014 through September 2019 at a monthly gross rent, including taxes and expenses of approximately $6,900 per month. | ||||
The preceding data reflects existing leases and does not include replacements upon their expiration. In the normal course of business, operating leases are generally renewed or replaced by other leases. | ||||
Supply Agreements and Purchase Obligations | ||||
On December 7, 2009, the Company entered into a long-term agreement with sanofi-aventis Deutschland GmbH (“sanofi”). Under this agreement, sanofi will manufacture and supply recombinant human insulin to the Company in the territories specified in the agreement. Through this agreement, the Company will procure recombinant human insulin crystals for use in the production of Generex Oral-lyn™. The terms of the supply agreement required the Company to make certain minimum purchases of insulin from sanofi through the period ended December 31, 2011. To date, the Company has not met the minimum purchase commitments under this agreement. After December 31, 2011, sanofi may terminate the agreement due to the Company’s failure to meet such purchase commitments. Upon termination, the Company would be obligated to pay sanofi for all materials and components that it has acquired or ordered to manufacture insulin based on the Company’s forecasts or minimum purchase commitments, all related work-in-progress (at cost) and all finished insulin in inventory. To date, the Company has not provided forecasts to sanofi for the purchase of insulin and sanofi has not terminated the agreement. | ||||
The Company has a supply agreement with Presspart Manufacturing Limited (“Presspart”), whereby the Company will purchase its entire requirements for products to use in the administration of insulin through the buccal mucosa and shall not purchase the products or any metal containers competitive to the products from any other person in exchange for an exclusive non-transferable royalty-free irrevocable license to use the products. The contract shall continue for a minimum period of four contract years from the end of the first contract year in which the total quantity of products purchased by the Company from Presspart exceeds 10,000,000 units, and thereafter, shall continue until terminated by either party by giving twelve months written notice. As of July 31, 2014, the Company has not yet completed a contract year in which the total quantity has exceeded 10,000,000 units and as such the expiration date of this contract cannot be determined. | ||||
Pending Litigation | ||||
In February 2001, a former business associate of the former Vice President of Research and Development (“VP”) of the Company and an entity known as Centrum Technologies Inc. (“CTI”) commenced an action in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice against the Company and the VP seeking, among other things, damages for alleged breaches of contract and tortious acts related to a business relationship between this former associate and the VP that ceased in July 1996. The plaintiffs’ statement of claim also seeks to enjoin the use, if any, by the Company of three patents allegedly owned by CTI. The three patents are entitled Liquid Formulations for Proteinic Pharmaceuticals, Vaccine Delivery System for Immunization, Using Biodegradable Polymer Microspheres, and Controlled Releases of Drugs or Hormones in Biodegradable Polymer Microspheres. It is the Company’s position that the buccal drug delivery technologies which are the subject matter of the Company’s research, development, and commercialization efforts, including Generex Oral-lyn™ and the RapidMist™ Diabetes Management System, do not make use of, are not derivative of, do not infringe upon, and are entirely different from the intellectual property identified in the plaintiffs’ statement of claim. On July 20, 2001, the Company filed a preliminary motion to dismiss the action of CTI as a nonexistent entity or, alternatively, to stay such action on the grounds of want of authority of such entity to commence the action. The plaintiffs brought a cross motion to amend the statement of claim to substitute Centrum Biotechnologies, Inc. (“CBI”) for CTI. CBI is a corporation of which 50 percent of the shares are owned by the former business associate and the remaining 50 percent are owned by the Company. Consequently, the shareholders of CBI are in a deadlock. The court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the action of CTI and denied the plaintiffs’ cross motion without prejudice to the former business associate to seek leave to bring a derivative action in the name of or on behalf of CBI. The former business associate subsequently filed an application with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for an order granting him leave to file an action in the name of and on behalf of CBI against the VP and the Company. The Company opposed the application. In September 2003, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granted the request and issued an order giving the former business associate leave to file an action in the name of and on behalf of CBI against the VP and the Company. A statement of claim was served in July 2004. The Company is not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding. | ||||
On May 20, 2011, Ms. Perri filed a statement of claim (subsequently amended) in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, naming as defendants the Company and certain directors of the Company, Mr. Barratt, Ms. Masterson, Mr. McGee, and Mr. Fletcher. In this action, Ms. Perri has alleged that defendants engaged in discrimination, harassment, bad faith and infliction of mental distress in connection with the termination of her employment with the Company. Ms. Perri is seeking damages in this action in excess of $7,000,000 for, among other things, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, violations of the Ontario Human Rights Code and aggravated and punitive damages. On September 20, 2011, the defendants filed a statement of defense and counterclaim, also naming Time Release Corp., Khazak Group Consulting Corp., and David Khazak, C.A. as defendants by counterclaim, and seeking damages of approximately $2.3 million in funds that the defendants allege Ms. Perri wrongly caused the Company to pay to third parties in varying amounts over several years and an accounting of certain third-party payments, plus interests and costs. The factual basis for the counterclaim involves payments made by the Company to third parties believed to be related to Ms. Perri. The Company intends to defend this action and pursue its counterclaim vigorously and is not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding. | ||||
On June 1, 2011, Golden Bull Estates Ltd. filed a claim (subsequently amended) in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, naming the Company, 1097346 Ontario, Inc. and Generex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as defendants. The plaintiff, Golden Bull Estates, is controlled by Ms. Perri. The plaintiff alleges damages in the amount of $550,000 for breach of contract, $50,000 for punitive damages, plus interest and costs. The plaintiff’s claims relate to an alleged contract between the plaintiff and the Company for property management services for certain Ontario properties owned by the Company. The Company terminated the plaintiff’s property management services in April 2011. Following the close of pleadings, the Company served a motion for summary judgment. The plaintiff responded by amending its statement of claim to include a claim to the Company’s interest in certain of its real estate holdings. The plaintiff moved for leave to issue and register a Certificate of Pending Litigation in respect of this real estate. The motion was not successful in respect of any current real estate holdings of the Company. The Company is not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal proceeding at the present time or to estimate an amount or range of potential loss, if any, from this legal proceeding. | ||||
In August 2011, the estate of Antonio Perri, the late father of Ms. Perri, commenced an action against Generex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the law firm of Brans, Lehun, Baldwin LLP and William Lehun in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice claiming that the estate is entitled to the proceeds of sale (approximately $1,730,000) received by the Company on its sale of two properties to Golden Bull Estates Ltd., a company controlled by Ms. Perri. The suit alleges that no consideration was received when the Company purchased the two properties from Antonio Perri in 1998. The Company responded to this statement of claim. On May 6, 2014, the Company received a court order which dismissed this action for delay as the plaintiff has not brought this action to conclusion or set it down for trial within the time prescribed by the laws of Ontario. | ||||
In December 2011, a vendor of the Company commenced an action against the Company and its subsidiary, Generex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice claiming damages for unpaid invoices including interest in the amount of $429,000, in addition to costs and further interest. The Company responded to this statement of claim and also asserted a counterclaim in the proceeding for $200,000 arising from the vendor’s breach of contract and detinue, together with interest and costs. On November 16, 2012, the parties agreed to settle this action and the Company has agreed to pay the plaintiff $125,000, following the spinout of its subsidiary Antigen, from the proceeds of any public or private financing related to Antigen subsequent to such spinout. Each party agreed to execute mutual releases to the claim and counterclaim to be held in trust by each party’s counsel until payment of the settlement amount. Following payment to the plaintiff, the parties agree that a Consent Dismissal Order without costs will be filed with the court. If the Company fails to make the payment following completion of any post-spinout financing related to Antigen or any other subsidiaries, the Plaintiffs may take out a judgment in the amount of the claim plus interest of 3% per annum and costs fixed at $25,000. | ||||
The Company is involved in certain other legal proceedings in addition to those specifically described herein. Subject to the uncertainty inherent in all litigation, the Company does not believe at the present time that the resolution of any of these legal proceedings is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows. | ||||
With respect to all litigation, as additional information concerning the estimates used by the Company becomes known, the Company reassesses its position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures. | ||||
Employment Agreements | ||||
As of July 31, 2014, the Company had an employment arrangement with its President & Chief Executive Officer, whereby the Company is required to pay an annual base salary of $475,000. The term of service for this executive extended through March 16, 2008, which term had not been formally extended as of July 31, 2014. In the event the agreement is terminated, by reason other than cause, death, voluntary retirement or disability, the Company is required to pay the employee in one lump sum twelve months base salary and the average annual bonus. | ||||
As of July 31, 2014, the Company has an at will employment agreement with an Antigen employee requiring the Company to pay an annual aggregate salary of $260,480 to the employee. In the event the agreement is terminated by reason other than death, disability, a voluntary termination not for good reason (as defined in the agreement) or a termination for cause, the Company is required to pay the employee severance of six months’ salary, in accordance with the terms of the individual’s employment agreement. |

Subject to certain ownership limitations, the convertible preferred stock is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock at an effective conversion price of $0.03 per share, and will accrue a 9% dividend until the third year anniversary of the issuances. On each one year anniversary thereafter, such dividend rate will increase by an additional 3%. The dividend is payable quarterly on September 30, December 31, March 31 and June 30, beginning on June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014, respectively, and on each conversion date in cash, or at the Company’s option, in shares of common stock. In the event that the Series E and F convertible preferred stock is converted prior to June 17, 2016 and March 27, 2017, respectively, the Company will pay the holder of the converted preferred stock an amount equal to $270 per $1,000 of stated value of the convertible preferred stock, less the amount of all prior quarterly dividends paid on such converted preferred stock before the relevant conversion date. Such “make-whole payment” may be made in cash or, at the Company’s option, in shares of its common stock. In addition, beginning on the third anniversary date of the issuances, the Company will pay dividends on shares of preferred stock equal to (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) and in the same form as dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) actually paid on shares of the common stock when, and if such dividends are paid. The Company will incur a late fee of 18% per annum on unpaid dividends. | |||
The conversion price of the convertible preferred stock is subject to adjustment in the case of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. The conversion price will also be adjusted if the Company sells or grants any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then conversion price, except in the event of certain exempt issuances. In addition, the holders of convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by the Company pro rata to the holders of its common stock to the same extent as if such holders had converted all of their shares of convertible preferred stock. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations, the holders of convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive, upon conversion of their shares, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction. | |||
In conjunction with the issuance of the Series E convertible preferred stock in June 2013 and January 2014 and the issuance of the Series F convertible preferred stock in June 2014, , the Company also issued 40,833,335, 26,666,668 and 69,166,667 warrants, respectively to the investors. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the warrants will be exercisable at any time after their respective dates of issuance and on or before the fifth-year anniversary thereafter at an exercise price of $0.03 per share of common stock. The exercise price of the warrants and, in some cases, the number of shares issuable upon exercise, are subject to adjustment in the case of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise will also be adjusted if the Company sells or grants any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then exercise price, except in the event of certain exempt issuances. In addition, the warrant holders will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by the Company pro rata to the holders of its common stock to the same extent as if such holders had exercised all of their warrants. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations, the warrant holders will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of their warrants, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction. These warrants have been classified as derivative liabilities and are described further in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. | |||
In addition, until the first anniversary date of the June 2013 and March 2014 securities purchase agreements, each investor may, in its sole determination, elect to purchase, severally and not jointly with the other investors, in one or more purchases, in the ratio of such investor's original subscription amount to the original aggregate subscription amount of all investors, additional units consisting of convertible preferred stock and warrants at a purchase price of $1,000 per unit with an aggregate subscription amount thereof of up to $1,225,000 and $2,075,000, respectively, which units will have terms identical to the units of convertible preferred stock and warrants issued in connection with the June 2013 and March 2014 closings. These additional investment rights of the investors have been classified as derivative liabilities and are described further in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. On January 15, 2014, certain investors exercised 800 of the 1,225 shares of convertible preferred stock and related warrants available under the additional investment rights. The remaining June 2013 additional investment rights expired on June 17, 2014. The March 2014 additional investment rights expire on March 27, 2015 and none have been exercised to date. | |||
As of July 31, 2014, 2,000 of the Series E convertible preferred stock had been converted to common stock. There were 66,666,666 shares of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Series E convertible preferred stock and 18,585,193 shares of common stock issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions. As of July 31, 2014, 850 of the Series F convertible preferred stock had been converted to common stock. There were 28,333,331 shares of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Series F convertible preferred stock and 7,861,623 shares of common stock issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions. | |||
Accounting for proceeds from the Series E convertible preferred stock financing | |||
The net proceeds from the initial Series E convertible preferred stock financing in June 2013 were $1,165,000. The proceeds from the financing were allocated first to the warrants that were issued in the financing, second to the additional investment rights associated with the financing and third to the make whole payments. As the assigned fair values were greater than the net cash proceeds from the transaction, the excess was treated as a “deemed dividend” for accounting purposes and was reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended July 31, 2013 under the caption “Preferred Stock Dividend”. The calculation methodologies for the fair values of the derivative warrant liability and the derivative additional investment rights liability are described in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities below. The fair values assigned to each component and the calculation of the amount of the deemed dividend are as follows: | |||
Accounting allocation of initial proceeds | |||

The initial “make-whole payments” of $330,750 on the Series E convertible preferred stock were accrued as of the date of the financing and the remaining balance of $6,750 (after conversions) is included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses (see Note 6) at July 31, 2014. | |||
The initial net cash proceeds from the Series E convertible preferred stock financing in January 2014 were $750,000. The proceeds from the financing were allocated first to the warrants that were issued in the financing and then to the make whole payments and subsequent issuance costs. As the assigned fair values were greater than the net cash proceeds from the transaction, the excess was treated as a “deemed dividend” for accounting purposes and was reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2014 under the caption “Preferred Stock Dividend”. The calculation methodologies for the fair values of the derivative warrant liability and the derivative additional investment rights liability are described in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities below. The fair values assigned to each component and the calculation of the amount of the deemed dividend are as follows: | |||

Derivative warrant liability fair value | -942,279 | ||
Other issuance costs (Finders’ fee) | -64,000 | ||
Make whole payments liability | -216,000 | ||
Deemed dividend | $ | -472,279 | |
The initial “make-whole payments” of $216,000 on the Series E convertible preferred stock were accrued as of the date of the financing, all of which have been converted as of July 31, 2014. | |||
Accounting for proceeds from the Series F convertible preferred stock financing | |||
The initial net cash proceeds from the Series F convertible preferred stock financing in March 2014 were $2,020,000. The proceeds from the financing were allocated first to the warrants that were issued in the financing, second to the additional investment rights associated with the financing and then to the make whole payments and subsequent issuance costs. As the assigned fair values were greater than the net cash proceeds from the transaction, the excess was treated as a “deemed dividend” for accounting purposes and was reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014 under the caption “Preferred Stock Dividend”. The calculation methodologies for the fair values of the derivative warrant liability and the derivative additional investment rights liability are described in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities below.

Other issuance costs (Finders’ fee) | -166,000 | ||
Make whole payments liability | -560,250 | ||
Deemed dividend | $ | -1,586,050 | |
The initial “make-whole payments” of $560,250 on the Series F convertible preferred stock were accrued as of the date of the financing and the remaining balance of $330,750 (after conversions) is included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses (see Note 6) at July 31, 2014. |

Derivative warrant liability | |||||||||
The Company has warrants outstanding with price protection provisions that allow for the reduction in the exercise price of the warrants in the event the Company subsequently issues stock or securities convertible into stock at a price lower than the exercise price of the warrants. Simultaneously with any reduction to the exercise price, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each of these warrants shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate exercise price payable for the adjusted number of warrants shall be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. | |||||||||
Accounting for Derivative Warrant Liability | |||||||||
The Company’s derivative warrant instruments have been measured at fair value at July 31, 2014 and 2013 using the binomial lattice model. The Company recognizes all of its warrants with price protection in its consolidated balance sheets as a liability. The liability is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized currently in the consolidated statements of operations. The initial recognition and subsequent changes in fair value of the derivative warrant liability have no effect on the Company’s consolidated cash flows. | |||||||||
The derivative warrants outstanding at July 31, 2014 are all currently exercisable with a weighted-average remaining life of 3.3 years. | |||||||||
The revaluation of the warrants at each reporting period, as well as the charges associated with issuing additional warrants due to the price protection features, resulted in the recognition of a gain of $3,362,497 within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014 and a loss of $3,148,782 for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, which is included in the consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Change in fair value of derivative liabilities”. The fair value of the warrants at July 31, 2014 and 2013 was $2,635,643 and $5,234,293, respectively, which is reported on the consolidated balance sheets under the caption “Derivative Warrant Liability”.

Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Derivative Warrant Liability | |||||||||
The Company has determined its derivative warrant liability to be a Level 2 fair value measurement and has used the binominal lattice pricing model to calculate the fair value as of July 31, 2014 and 2013. The binomial lattice model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Because the warrants contain the price protection feature, the probability that the exercise price of the warrants would decrease as the stock price decreased was incorporated into the valuation calculations. The key inputs used in the July 31, 2014 and 2013 fair value calculations were as follows: | |||||||||

Current exercise price | $ | 0.03 | $ | 0.03 | |||||

Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Derivative Additional Investment Rights Liability | |||||||||
The Company has determined the derivative additional investment rights liability to be a Level 2 fair value measurement and has used the binominal lattice pricing model to measure the fair value. The fair value of the derivative liability associated with the additional investment rights was determined to be $719,088 and $1,256,160 at July 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The key inputs used in the fair value calculation at July 31, 2014 were as follows: | |||||||||

* Subject to price protection provisions as described below. | ||||||
The outstanding warrants at July 31, 2014 have a weighted average exercise price of $0.085 per share and have a weighted average remaining life of 3.1 years. | ||||||
As of July 31, 2014, the Company has 239,788,852 warrants with a current exercise price of $0.03 which have price protection provisions that allow for the reduction in the current exercise price upon the occurrence of certain events, including the Company’s issuance of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, such as options and warrants, at a price per share less than the exercise price then in effect. For instance, if the Company issues shares of its common stock or options exercisable for or securities convertible into common stock at an effective price per share of common stock less than the exercise price then in effect, the exercise price will be reduced to the effective price of the new issuance. Simultaneously with any reduction to the exercise price, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of each of these warrants shall be increased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate exercise price payable for the adjusted number of warrants shall be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. There are a limited number of permitted types of stock and equity instrument issuances for each series of warrants which will not invoke the price protection provisions of these warrants. | ||||||
The Company accounts for the warrants with price protection provisions in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815 as described in Note 10 - Derivative Liabilities above. As of July 31, 2014, there were a total of 239,788,852 warrants with an estimated fair value of $2,635,643, which are identified on the consolidated balance sheets under the caption “Derivative Warrant Liability”. | ||||||
Preferred Stock | ||||||
The Company has authorized 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of one-tenth of a cent ($.001) per share. The preferred stock may be issued in various series and shall have preference as to dividends and to liquidation of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors is authorized to establish the specific rights, preferences, voting privileges and restrictions of such preferred stock, or any series thereof. At July 31, 2014, 25 shares of the Company’s non-voting Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock and 1,225 shares of the Company’s non-voting Series F 9% Convertible Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding. At July 31, 2013, 930 shares of the Company’s non-voting Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding. See Note 9 - Series A, B, C, D, E and F 9% Convertible Preferred Stock above. | ||||||
Equity Instruments Issued for Services Rendered | ||||||
During the years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company issued stock options, warrants and shares of common stock in exchange for services rendered to the Company. The fair value of each stock option and warrant was valued using the Black Scholes pricing model which takes into account as of the grant date the exercise price and expected life of the stock option or warrant, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk free interest rate for the term of the stock option or warrant. Shares of common stock are valued at the quoted market price on the date of grant. The fair value of each grant was charged to the related expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the services received (see Note 12). |

Stock Option Plans | |||||||||||
As of July 31, 2014, the Company had two stockholder-approved stock incentive plans under which shares and options exercisable for shares of common stock have been or may be granted to employees, directors, consultants and advisors. A total of 12,000,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2001 Stock Option Plan (the 2001 Plan) and 135,000,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2006 Stock Plan as amended (the 2006 Plan). At July 31, 2014, there were 1,353,916 and 81,300,576 shares of common stock reserved for future awards under the 2001 Plan and 2006 Plan, respectively. The Company issues new shares of common stock from the shares reserved under the respective Plans upon conversion or exercise of options and issuance of restricted shares. | |||||||||||
The 2001 and 2006 Plans (the Plans) are administered by the Board of Directors (the Board). The Board is authorized to select from among eligible employees, directors, advisors and consultants those individuals to whom options are to be granted and to determine the number of shares to be subject to, and the terms and conditions of the options. The Board is also authorized to prescribe, amend and rescind terms relating to options granted under the Plans. Generally, the interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plans or any options granted hereunder is within the discretion of the Board. | |||||||||||
The Plans provide that options may or may not be Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Only employees of the Company are eligible to receive ISOs, while employees and non-employee directors, advisors and consultants are eligible to receive options which are not ISOs, i.e. “Non-Qualified Options.” The options granted by the Board in connection with its adoption of the Plans were Non-Qualified Options. In addition, the 2006 Plan also provides for restricted stock grants. | |||||||||||
Share-based employee compensation related to stock options for the years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $262,871, $837,753 and $602,384 for each year and were charged to the consolidated statements of operations. Share-based employee compensation related to common stock grants for the years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $130,000, $0 and $130,544, respectively, and were charged to the consolidated statements of operations. | |||||||||||
The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or the value of the services provided, whichever is more readily determinable. The Black-Scholes option pricing model takes into account, as of the grant date, the exercise price and expected life of the option, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The Black-Scholes option pricing model was not used to estimate the fair value any option grants in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||

Principles of Consolidation | |||
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. For those consolidated subsidiaries where the Company ownership is less than 100 percent, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as minority interests. Effective December 17, 2004, the Company’s ownership in all consolidated subsidiaries is 100 percent. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. | |||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | ' | ||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. | |||
Property and Equipment | ' | ||
Property and Equipment | |||
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to thirty years. Gains and losses on depreciable assets retired or sold are recognized in the statement of operations in the year of disposal. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. | |||
Assets Held for Investment | ' | ||
Assets Held for Investment | |||
Property held for investment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of thirty years. Gains and losses on depreciable assets retired or sold are recognized in the statement of operations in the year of disposal. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. | |||
Patents | ' | ||
Patents | |||
Capitalized patent costs represent legal costs incurred to establish patents and a portion of the acquisition price paid attributed to patents upon the acquisition of Antigen in August 2003. When patents reach a mature stage, any associated legal costs are comprised mostly of maintenance fees and costs of national applications and are expensed as incurred. Capitalized patent costs are amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining life of the patent. As patents are abandoned, the net book value of the patent is written off. In the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, the Company recorded a write down of $440,780 on certain patents. There were no write downs or disposals in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2014 and 2013. | |||
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles | ' | ||
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles | |||
The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets under FASB ASC Topic 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposal of the asset. In the fiscal years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company sold, wrote off or disposed of certain long-lived assets with net book values of $706,590, $745,172 and $2,945,079, respectively. | |||
Derivative Warrant Liability | ' | ||
Derivative Warrant Liability | |||
The Company’s derivative warrant instruments are measured at fair value using the binomial valuation model which takes into account, as of the valuation date, factors including the current exercise price, the expected life of the warrant, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the warrant. The liability is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Change in fair value of derivative warrant liability.” See Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. | |||
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue | ' | ||
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue | |||
Revenues from the sale of commercial products are recognized at the time title of goods passes to the buyer and the buyer assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Certain product sales are made to retailers under agreements allowing for a right to return unsold products. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605, recognition of revenue on all sales to these retailers is deferred until the right of return expires, the product is sold to a third party or a provision for returns can be reasonably estimated based on historical experience. The cost of inventory under these sales is considered to be consigned inventory until the revenue is recognized. Sales are reported net of estimated returns and allowances, discounts, mail-in rebate redemptions and credit card chargebacks. If actual sales returns, allowances, discounts, mail-in rebate redemptions or credit card chargebacks are greater than estimated by management, additional expense may be incurred. At July 31, 2014, we have $223,662 of deferred revenue for which a provision for returns cannot be reasonably estimated and thus the balance is included in Deferred Revenue on our consolidated balance sheets. The corresponding cost of sales has been previously written off and is not included in inventory as of July 31, 2014 as the timing of the recognition of the revenue cannot be reasonably estimated. | |||
Grant revenue is recognized as the Company provides the services stipulated in the underlying grant based on the time and expenditures incurred. Amounts received in advance of services provided are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized as revenue when the services are provided. There was no grant revenue in fiscal 2014, 2013 or 2012. | |||
Included in miscellaneous income are fees received under licensing agreements. Nonrefundable fees received under licensing agreements are recognized as revenue when received if the Company has no continuing obligations to the other party. | |||
Rental income is recognized as revenue in the period in which the related rental space is occupied. | |||
Research and Development Costs | ' | ||
Research and Development Costs | |||
Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred and include, among other costs, those related to the production of experimental drugs, including payroll costs, and amounts incurred for conducting clinical trials. Amounts expected to be received from governments under research and development tax credit arrangements are offset against current research and development expense. | |||
Income Taxes | ' | ||
Income Taxes | |||
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method prescribed by FASB ASC Topic 740. These standards require a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely than not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. Deferred income taxes are recorded for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the tax rates expected to be in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. At July 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had a full valuation allowance equal to the amount of the net deferred tax asset. | |||
The Company adopted the FASB guidance concerning accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as of August 1, 2007. The guidance requires that the Company determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will not be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. If a tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition criterion, the guidance requires that the tax position be measured at the largest amount of benefit greater than 50 percent not likely of being sustained upon ultimate settlement. Based on the Company’s evaluation, management has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the consolidated financial statements. | |||
Stock-Based Compensation | ' | ||
Stock-Based Compensation | |||
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 718 which requires that new, modified and unvested share-based payment transactions with employees, such as grants of stock options and restricted stock, be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value at the grant date and recognized as compensation expense over their vesting periods. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and restricted stock based on the quoted market price or the value of the services provided, whichever is more readily determinable. The Company also follows the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 505 for equity based payments to non-employees for equity instruments issued to consultants and other non-employees. | |||
Net Loss per Common Share | ' | ||
Net Loss per Common Share | |||
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. Refer to Note 13 for methodology for determining net loss per share. | |||
Comprehensive Income/(Loss) | ' | ||
Comprehensive Income/(Loss) | |||
Other comprehensive income/(loss), which includes only foreign currency translation adjustments, is shown in the Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. | |||
Concentration of Credit Risk | ' | ||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||
The Company maintains cash balances, at times, with financial institutions in excess of amounts insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation and the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Management monitors the soundness of these institutions and has not experienced any collection losses with these financial institutions. | |||
Foreign Currency Translation | ' | ||
Foreign Currency Translation | |||
Foreign denominated assets and liabilities of the Company are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates in effect at the end of the reporting period. Income statement accounts are translated at a weighted average of exchange rates which were in effect during the period. Translation adjustments that arise from translating the foreign subsidiary’s financial statements from local currency to U.S. currency are recorded in the other comprehensive loss component of stockholders’ equity. | |||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ' | ||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||
Fair value is defined under FASB ASC Topic 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The levels are as follows: | |||
• | Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities | ||
• | Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities | ||
• | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities | ||
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, long-term debt, accounts payable and accrued expenses, as well as derivative warrant liabilities and derivative additional investment rights. All of these items, except for the derivative warrant liabilities and derivative additional investment rights, were determined to be Level 1 fair value measurements. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values because of the short maturities of these instruments. Long-term debt balances were determined to approximate their fair value as we believe the borrowing rates reflect the prevailing market rates available for similar debt instruments. | |||
The Company has determined its derivative warrant liability and its derivative additional investment rights liability to be Level 2 fair value measurements and has used the binomial lattice model valuation method to calculate the fair value of the derivative warrant liability and the derivative additional investment rights liability at July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. See Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. | |||
Use of Estimates | ' | ||
Use of Estimates | |||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. | |||
The Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, long lived assets (including patents) impairment valuations, debt obligations, derivatives, convertible preferred shares, long-term contracts, and contingencies and litigation, on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. | |||
Critical accounting estimates are reviewed and discussed with the audit committee of the board of directors. The Company considers an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, if changes in the estimate or if different estimates that could have been selected would have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. | |||
Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ' | ||
Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |||
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | |||
In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance regarding the elimination of the reporting requirement for development stage entities and removed the definition of development stage entity from the Accounting Standards Codification. The Company has adopted this guidance effective for the Company’s annual fiscal year ended July 31, 2014. The adoption of this new accounting guidance resulted in the elimination of the inception-to-date financial information in the consolidated statements of operations, statements of changes in stockholders’ deficiency and statements of cash flows, as well as the removal of the subheading “A Development Stage Company” from the consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated financial statements. | |||
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | |||
In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance regarding disclosure of uncertainties about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s annual fiscal year ended July 31, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements. |
