NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Description of Business
Cleveland BioLabs, Inc. (“CBLI”) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company with a focus on oncology drug development. Since inception, CBLI has pursued the research, development and commercialization of products that have the potential to treat cancer, prevent and treat acute radiation syndrome and counteract the toxic effects of radio and chemotherapies for oncology patients.
CBLI was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 5, 2003 and is headquartered in Buffalo, New York. CBLI has two majority-owned subsidiaries, Incuron, LLC (“Incuron”) and Panacela Labs Inc. (“Panacela”), which were formed in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Additionally, Panacela has a wholly-owned subsidiary, OOO “Panacela Labs.”
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CBLI and its majority-owned subsidiaries, Incuron and Panacela, collectively referred to herein as the “Company.” All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC.
In the opinion of the Company’s management, any adjustments contained in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are of a normal recurring nature, and are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2012, results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for an entire year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase and consist of time deposits and investments in money market funds with commercial banks and financial institutions. As of June 30, 2012, $4,648,481 of the Company’s cash was restricted to the use of its subsidiaries.
Short-Term Investments
The Company’s short-term investments are classified as held to maturity given the intent and ability to hold the investments to maturity. Accordingly, these investments are carried at amortized cost. Short-term investments classified as held-to-maturity consisted of certificates of deposit with maturity dates beyond three months and less than one year. As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s short-term investments were restricted to the use of its subsidiaries.
Significant Customers and Accounts Receivable
Grant and contract revenue from the United States government accounted for approximately 100% of total revenue for all periods presented. Although the Company anticipates ongoing federal government contract and grant revenue, there is no guarantee that this revenue stream will continue in the future.
Accounts receivable consist of amounts due under reimbursement contracts with certain government and foreign entities. The Company extends unsecured credit to customers under normal trade agreements, which generally require payment within 30 days.
Management estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based upon management's review of delinquent accounts and an assessment of the Company's historical evidence of collections. There were no allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as the collection history from the Company’s customers indicated that collection was probable.
Intellectual Property
Costs related to filing and pursuing patent applications are recognized as general and administrative expenses as incurred, since the recoverability of such expenditures is uncertain. Upon marketability approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or a respective foreign governing body, such costs will be capitalized and depreciated over the expected life of the related patent.
Line of Credit
CBLI has a working capital line of credit that is fully secured by cash equivalents and short-term investments. The working capital line of credit carries an interest rate equal to the prime rate, has a borrowing limit of $600,000, and expires on May 31, 2013. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no outstanding borrowings under this credit facility.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
The 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), authorizes CBLI to grant (i) options to purchase common stock, (ii) restricted or unrestricted stock units, and (iii) stock appreciation rights, so long as the exercise or grant price of each are at least equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. At the 2012 annual meeting of stockholders, an amendment to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan was approved, and as of June 30, 2012, an aggregate of 10.0 million shares of common stock were authorized for issuance under the Plan, of which a total of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock remained available for future awards. A single participant cannot be awarded more than 400,000 shares annually. Awards granted under the Plan have a contractual life of no more than 10 years. The terms and conditions of equity awards (such as price, vesting schedule, term and number of shares) under the Plan are specified in an award document, and approved by the Company’s compensation committee.
The Company estimates the fair value of all grants using the closing market price of CBLI’s common stock on the day of the grant. The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of all stock options granted. Set forth below are the assumptions used in valuing the stock options granted and a discussion of the Company’s methodology for developing each of the assumptions used:
| | For the six months ended June 30, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 0.75 | - | 1.49 | % | | | 1.89 | - | 2.61 | % |
Expected dividend yield | | | | | 0 | % | | | | | 0 | % |
Expected life | | 5 | - | 6 | Years | | 5 | - | 6 | Years |
Expected volatility | | | 86.58 | - | 92.24 | % | | | 84.28 | - | 88.69 | % |
“Risk-free interest rate” means the range of U.S. Treasury rates with a term that most closely resembles the expected life of the option as of the date the option is granted.
“Expected dividend yield” of zero is based on the fact that the Company has not historically paid regular dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.
“Expected life” means the period of time that options granted are expected to remain outstanding, based solely on the use of the simplified (safe harbor) method. The simplified method is used because the Company does not yet have adequate historical exercise information to estimate the expected life the options granted.
“Expected volatility” is a measure of the amount by which a financial variable, such as share price, has fluctuated (historical volatility) or is expected to fluctuate (implied volatility) during a period. Effective January 1, 2012, expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock. Prior to that date, expected volatility was based on both the historical volatility of the Company's common stock and the volatility of the common stock of comparable companies when the expected life of the option exceeded the Company’s trading history.
Income Taxes
No income tax expenses were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, as the Company does not expect to have taxable income for 2012 and did not have taxable income in 2011. A full valuation allowance has been recorded against the Company’s deferred tax asset.
Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock excludes dilution for potential common stock issuances and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share | | $ | (0.14 | ) | | $ | 0.30 | | | $ | (0.29 | ) | | $ | 0.16 | |
Net loss per share of common stock for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 are based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during such periods. Basic and diluted loss per share are identical for these periods as potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share of common stock because their inclusion would be antidilutive. The potentially dilutive securities include 10,781,507 shares of common stock reserved for the exercise of outstanding options and warrants.
Net income per share of common stock for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 excluded potentially dilutive securities of 2,021,635 reserved for the exercise of outstanding options and warrants as their inclusion would be antidilutive. These securities are considered anti-dilutive as their exercise prices exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the respective periods.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) (“ASU 2011-04”), which contains amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosures in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 explains how to measure fair value for financial reporting. The guidance does not require fair value measurements in addition to those already required or permitted by other Topics. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity, but did require expanded disclosures as set forth in Note 3, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”). This guidance is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial statements by presenting it in either a single statement or two-statement approach. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity. The Company elected to present comprehensive income (loss) in two separate but consecutive statements as part of the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for liabilities when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. For all periods presented, the Company is not a party to any pending material litigation or other material legal proceedings.
3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures and records cash equivalents and warrant liabilities at fair value in the accompanying financial statements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or an exit price, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market 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 three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, include:
Level 1 - Observable inputs for identical assets or liabilities such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, which are therefore developed by the Company using estimates and assumptions that reflect those that a market participant would use.
The following tables represent the Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:
| | As of June 30, 2012 | |

The Company uses the Black-Scholes model to measure the accrued warrant liability and its accrual for compensatory stock options not yet issued. The following are the assumptions used to measure the accrued warrant liability at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, which were determined in a manner consistent with that described for grants of options to purchase common stock as set forth in Note 2:
| | June 30, 2012 | | | December 31, 2011 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Stock Price | | $ | | | 1.57 | | | $ | | | 2.86 | |
Exercise Price | | $ | 1.60 | - | 5.00 | | | $ | 1.60 | - | 5.00 | |

Discount rate- bond equivalent yield | | | 0.25 | - | 0.33 | % | | | 0.20 | - | 0.28 | % |
The following are the assumptions used to measure the compensatory stock options not yet issued at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:
| | June 30, 2012 | | | December 31, 2011 | |
| | | | | | | | |

Amount of total gains or losses for the period included in earnings as change in value of warrant liability attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to liabilities recorded at the reporting date: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
June 30, 2012 | | $ | (2,543,270 | ) | | $ | - | | | $ | (4,263,026 | ) | | $ | - | |
June 30, 2011 | | $ | (17,810,176 | ) | | $ | - | | | $ | (17,067,499 | ) | | $ | - | |
(1) Realized and unrealized gains or losses related to the accrued warrant liability were included as change in value of accrued warrant liability. | |
(2) Realized gains or losses related to compensatory stock options were included in research and development expense and general and administrative expense. |
Separate disclosure is required for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as documented above, from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had no assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
The Company considers the accrued warrant liability and compensatory stock options not yet issued to be Level 3 because some of the inputs into the measurements are neither directly or indirectly observable. Both the accrued warrant liability and compensatory stock options not yet issued use management’s estimate for the expected term, which is based on the safe harbor method as historical exercise information over the term of each security is not readily available. Additionally, the number of compensatory options awarded involves an estimate of management’s performance in relation to the targets set forth in the Company's Executive Compensation Plan. The following table summarizes the unobservable inputs into the fair value measurements:
| | June 30, 2012 | | | |
Description | | Fair Value | | | Valuation Technique | | Unobservable Input | | Range |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Compensatory stock options not yet issued (Range in years) | | $ | 114,617 | | | Black-Scholes pricing model | | Expected term | | | | 5 | |
Quantity of options | | | | | | | | | | | | 200,000 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Accrued warrant liability (Range in years) | | | 3,022,933 | | | Black-Scholes pricing model | | Expected term | | 1.34 | - | 1.98 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | $ | 3,137,550 | | | | | | | | | | |
Management believes the value of both the accrued warrant liability and compensatory stock options is more sensitive to a change in the Company’s stock price at the end of the respective reporting period as opposed to a change in one of the unobservable inputs described above.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
4. Stockholders’ Equity

The Company recognized a total of $767,293 and $1,685,986 in net expense related to stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company also granted 223,298 and 75,917 shares of stock under the Plan and recognized a total of $455,259 and $461,302 in expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
5. Warrants
The Company has issued warrants to strategic partners, consultants and investors with exercise prices ranging from $1.60 to $5.00. The warrants expire between one and seven years from the date of grant, subject to the terms applicable in the agreement.

6. Noncontrolling Interests
On January 20, 2011, March 14, 2011 and May 31, 2012, Bioprocess Capital Ventures, the noncontrolling interest holder in Incuron, contributed approximately 68.0 million Russian rubles (approximately $2.3 million), approximately 1.73 million Russian rubles (approximately $0.1 million) and approximately 194.0 million Russian rubles (approximately $5.9 million) to Incuron, respectively, which increased its ownership percentage from 16.1% to 40.78% and decreased CBLI’s ownership percentage from 83.9% to 59.22%.
The effect of the changes in CBLI’s ownership interest in Incuron on CBLI’s equity is shown on the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity.
7. Subsequent Events
In July 2012, CBLI, through a wholly-owned Russian subsidiary, signed a contract valued at 139.0 million Russian rubles, or approximately $4.2 million (based on current exchange rates), with the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation for development of CBLB612. The contract, issued under Russia's "Pharma 2020" development initiative, provides funding over a period of approximately three years, which will be used to support completion of preclinical studies, filing of an IND and Phase I and II clinical studies.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and other portions of this filing contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking information. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, availability and cost of financial resources, results of our research and development efforts and clinical trials, product demand, market acceptance and other factors discussed below and in our other SEC filings, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. See also the Risk Factors discussed under Item 1A of such Annual Report. This management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this filing and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
OVERVIEW
We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company with a focus on oncology drug development. Our lead drug candidate, CBLB502, is being developed for dual indications for biodefense application as a radiation countermeasure under a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) regulation commonly referred to as the “Animal Rule”, and as a cancer treatment and an oncologic supportive care therapy under the FDA’s traditional drug approval pathway. We anticipate that CBLB502, upon licensure as a radiation countermeasure, will be sold to the U.S. government for the national stockpile and other defense-related purposes, allied foreign governments and the nuclear energy industry, and upon licensure as a cancer treatment, will be sold to the public through traditional channels.
Since our inception, we have pursued the research, development and commercialization of products that have the potential to treat cancer, prevent and treat acute radiation syndrome and counteract the toxic effects of radio and chemotherapies for oncology patients. Presently, we have nine product candidates in our pipeline that are being developed directly by us and our majority-owned subsidiaries, Incuron, LLC (“Incuron”) and Panacela Labs, Inc. (“Panacela”).
In addition to CBLB502, our product pipeline includes: CBLB612, an inducer and mobilizer of hematopoietic stem cells; the Curaxin line of cancer treatment candidates being developed by Incuron, which specifically includes CBLC102, a nonproprietary molecule originally used to combat the effects of malaria, which we have identified as having cancer treatment properties, and CBLC137, a new, proprietary molecule that leverages similar mechanisms of action in combating cancer; and five preclinical product candidates being developed by Panacela (Revercom, Mobilan, Arkil, and Antimycon for cancer treatment or oncology applications and Xenomycins for anti-infective applications).
See “Item 1. Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for more information on our product candidates.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.
On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued expenses, income taxes, stock-based compensation, investments and in-process research and development. We based our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Our critical accounting policies and significant estimates are detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Other than as set forth below, our critical accounting policies and significant estimates have not changed substantially from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We use the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of certain common stock warrants on a recurring basis and classify such warrants as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Black-Scholes model utilizes inputs consisting of: (i) the closing price of our common stock; (ii) the expected remaining life of the warrants; (iii) the expected volatility using a weighted average of historical volatilities of CBLI and a group of comparable companies; and (iv) the risk-free market rate.
As of June 30, 2012, we held approximately $7.3 million in money market funds, which we classified as Level 1, and held approximately $3.1 million in accrued expenses primarily related to warrants to purchase common stock, which we classified as Level 3.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) (“ASU 2011-04”), which contains amendments to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosures in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 explains how to measure fair value for financial reporting. The guidance does not require fair value measurements in addition to those already required or permitted by other Topics. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity, but did require expanded disclosures as set forth in Note 3, Fair Value of Financial Instruments in the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”). This guidance is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial statements by presenting it in either a single statement or two-statement approach. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity. The Company elected to present comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements as part of the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2011
Revenue
Revenue decreased from approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of approximately $0.3 million, or 55%. This net decrease is primarily related to changes in research sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”) and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (“DTRA”), as set forth in the following table:

Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased from approximately $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of approximately $0.9 million, or 17%. This increase reflected a net increase in research and development expenditures related to our Panacela compounds, CBLB612, and CBLB502 for oncology applications, which totaled approximately $2.0 million. This increase was partially offset by a reduction of approximately $0.7 million in research and development expenses for CBLB502 for biodefense applications, as we completed a major Good Laboratory Practice compliant animal study, and a reduction of approximately $0.4 million for Curaxins.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative costs increased from approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. This represents an increase of approximately $1.3 million or 65%. Approximately $0.6 million, or 46%, of this increase related to general and administrative expenses of our new subsidiary Panacela, which commenced operations in the fourth quarter of 2011. Approximately $0.5 million, or 38%, of this increase related to business development expenditures. The remaining increase of approximately $0.2 million, or 16%, related to a variety of cost increases between the periods, none of which were individually significant, including: increases in personnel costs, travel and professional fees related to investor relation activities, and an increase in outside finance and legal fees in part related to improved financial systems, controls and general corporate governance.
Other Income and Expenses
Other income decreased from approximately $17.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of approximately $14.5 million, or 81%. This decrease was primarily attributable to the periodic fair valuation of the Company's warrant liability which generated non-cash income of approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to non-cash income of approximately $17.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, for a total decrease of approximately $15.3 million between the periods. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in foreign currency exchange gains between the periods of approximately $0.8 million.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
Revenue
Revenue decreased from approximately $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of approximately $1.8 million, or 60%. This decrease is primarily related to decreases in research sponsored by the DoD, DTRA and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”) as set forth in the following table:
| | | | | Six months ended June 30, | | | | |

Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased from approximately $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of approximately $1.2 million, or 11%. This increase was primarily due to activities associated with our Panacela Compounds and CBLB612 that began subsequent to June 30, 2011. These programs, in the aggregate, accounted for approximately $2.8 million of the growth in research and development expenses. We also experienced an increase in research and development expenses for CBLB502 for oncology applications, as we began our Advanced Cancer Trial at Roswell Park Cancer Institute (“RPCI”). These increases were partially offset by a decline in spending related to CBLB502 for biodefense applications, as we completed development work and commenced pivotal studies, and a reduction in spending related to our Curaxins.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative costs increased from approximately $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. This represents an increase of approximately $1.9 million, or 49%. Approximately $0.9 million, or 47%, of this increase related to the general and administrative expenses of our new subsidiary Panacela, which commenced operations in the fourth quarter of 2011. Approximately $0.6 million, or 32%, of this increase related to business development activities. The remaining increase of approximately $0.4 million, or 21%, related to a variety of cost increases between the periods, none of which were individually significant, including: increases in personnel costs, travel, professional fees related to investor relation activities, and an increase in outside finance and legal fees in part related to improved financial systems, controls and general corporate governance.
Other Income and Expenses
Other income decreased from approximately $17.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of approximately $12.8 million, or 75%. This decrease was primarily attributable to the periodic fair valuation of the Company's warrant liability which generated non-cash income of approximately $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to non-cash income of approximately $17.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, for a total decrease of approximately $12.8 million between the periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2012, we had approximately $13.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $8.8 million in short-term investments, along with accounts receivable of approximately $0.1 million, and approximately $1.6 million in funded backlog from the federal government. Additionally, Incuron has approximately $3.5 million (based on current exchange rates) of funded backlog available to it under its development grant from Skolkovo.
We are also in active discussions with BARDA and DoD for continued funding of our research and development of CBLB502 for biodefense applications. In addition, we are actively responding to all other contract and grant award possibilities we believe appropriate, such as the recently announced grant we received for the development of CBLB612 from the Ministry of Industry and Trade in the Russian Federation for approximately $4.0 million (see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements). However, there can be no assurance that any of these contracts or grant award applications will result in funding.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operations increased from approximately $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $12.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of approximately $7.1 million, or 139%. After adjusting for non-cash items, the net loss increased by approximately $5.8 million between the periods and the changes in working capital items netted an additional cash usage of approximately $1.3 million.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased from approximately $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $3.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an increase of approximately $2.9 million, or 363%. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the net cash provided by investing activities primarily related to the purchase of short-term investments of approximately $5.0 million, partially offset by the maturity of approximately $1.3 million in short-term investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the net cash used in investing activities included the purchase of short-term investments of approximately $0.2 million, equipment of approximately $0.3 million and patents of approximately $0.3 million. As discussed in Note 2 to the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, we adopted a more restrictive standard of capitalization of intellectual property costs during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased from approximately $25.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to approximately $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of approximately $19.8 million, or 77%. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, substantially all of the cash flows from financing activities were attributable to a capital contribution to our Incuron subsidiary by the noncontrolling interest holder. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, cash provided by financing activities included a net cash receipt of approximately $22.1 million related to the issuance of our common stock, an investment in Incuron of approximately $2.3 million by the noncontrolling interest holder, and the exercise of options and warrants for approximately $1.3 million.
Other
We have incurred cumulative net losses and expect to incur additional losses to perform further research and development activities. We do not have commercial products and have limited capital resources. We will need additional funds to complete the development of our products. Our plans with regard to these matters may include seeking additional capital through a combination of government contracts, collaborative agreements, strategic alliances, research grants, and future equity and debt financing. Although we continue to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining future financing on commercially reasonable terms or that we will be able to secure funding from anticipated government contracts and grants.
We believe that our existing funds combined with cash flows from existing government grants and contracts will be sufficient to support our operations into the second quarter of 2013. The success of our company is dependent upon commercializing our research and development programs and our ability to obtain adequate future financing. If we are unable to raise adequate capital and/or achieve profitable operations, future operations might need to be scaled back or discontinued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of the carrying amount of recorded assets and liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Impact of Inflation
We believe that our results of operations are not dependent upon moderate changes in inflation rates.
Impact of Exchange Rate Fluctuations
From time-to-time, our operations are somewhat dependent upon changes in foreign currency exchange rates; however at June 30, 2012, we were not obligated to make payments in foreign currencies.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no significant change in our exposure to market risk during the first six months ended June 30, 2012. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Effectiveness of Disclosure
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2012. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to assure that information required to be declared by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
