1. Business and Basis of Presentation | |
Business | |
Biodel Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively, "Biodel" or the "Company", and formerly Global Positioning Group Ltd.) is a specialty pharmaceutical company which focuses on the development and commercialization of innovative treatments for diabetes that may be safer, more effective and more convenient for patients. | |
Currently, the Company is developing room temperature stable glucagon presentations for use as a rescue treatment for diabetes patients experiencing severe hypoglycemia. The Company is also developing proprietary insulin formulations that are designed to be more rapid-acting than the formulations currently available to Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes patients. | |
The Company is in the process of raising additional equity capital to support the completion of its development and commercialization of its innovative treatments for diabetes. | |
The Company's activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding before another company develops similar treatments for patients with diabetes. | |
Basis of Presentation | |
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. These consolidated financial statements include Biodel UK Limited. This subsidiary has been inactive since its inception. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to fairly present the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP") have been consolidated or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the September 30, 2013 audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 20, 2013. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any other interim period. | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, to eliminate the concept of a development stage entity (DSE) from U.S. GAAP, effective for interim periods and years beginning after December 15, 2014. The issuance of ASU No. 2014-10 rescinds certain financial reporting requirements that have historically applied to DSEs, such as inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity. Additionally, the financial statements no longer need to be labeled as those of a DSE. ASU No. 2014-10 was early adopted and the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. | |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract] | ' | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value Measurements | ' | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2. Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, grants receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to their short term maturities. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
ASC Topic 820 ("ASC 820", originally issued as SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used are as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014, the Company had assets and liabilities that fell under the scope of ASC 820. The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the Company's warrant liability as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014 for the warrants issued in the May 2011 and June 2012 financings (as defined in Note 7). The Black-Scholes valuation model takes into account, as of the valuation date, factors including the current exercise price, the 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. Accordingly, the Company's fair value measurements of its cash and cash equivalents are classified as a Level 1 input and the warrant liability as a Level 3 input. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The fair value of the Company's financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis are as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The Company recognizes transfers into and out of the levels indicated above on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer of change. All changes within Level 3 can be found in the following Level 3 reconciliation table below: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The unrealized gains or losses on the derivative liabilities are recorded as an adjustment to fair value of common stock warrant liability in the Company's statement of operations. A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. At each reporting period, the Company reviews the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC Topic 815-40. At each reporting period, all assets and liabilities for which the fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs or instruments which trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency are classified as Level 3. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

3. Pre-Launch Inventory | |
Inventory costs associated with product candidates that have not yet received regulatory approval are capitalized if the Company believes there is probable future commercial use and future economic benefit. If the probability of future commercial use and future economic benefit cannot be reasonably determined, then pre-launch inventory costs associated with such product candidates are expensed as research and development expense during the period the costs are incurred. Because all of its product candidates are in early stages of preclinical or clinical development, the Company currently expenses all purchases of pre-launch inventory as research and development, and expects to continue to do so until it can determine the probability of regulatory approval for the applicable product candidate. |

4. Stock-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||
In March 2013, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to and restatement of the Company's 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended and restated the "2010 Plan"). The 2010 Plan replaced the Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and 2005 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan. Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to the Company's closing stock price on the date of the grant. Stock options vest over a period of up to four years with a contractual life of seven years. The Company estimates the fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company uses the following assumptions in its Black Scholes valuation calculations: | |||||||||||||||||
Risk-free rate - The Company uses interest rates based on the yield of US Treasury strips on the date the award is granted and the expected term of the award. | |||||||||||||||||
Forfeitures - The Company estimates forfeitures based on actual historical and estimated future forfeitures. | |||||||||||||||||
Dividends - The Company has assumed that dividends will not be paid. | |||||||||||||||||
Volatility - The Company uses its historical volatility. | |||||||||||||||||
Expected term - The expected option term represents the period that stock based awards are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method provided in Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 107, Share-Based Payment, ("SAB No. 107"), which averages an award's weighted-average vesting period and expected term for "plain vanilla" share options. Under SAB No. 107, options are considered to be "plain vanilla" if they have the following basic characteristics: (i) granted "at-the money"; (ii) exercisability is conditioned upon service through the vesting date; (iii) termination of service prior to vesting results in forfeiture; (iv) limited exercise period following termination of service; and (v) options are non-transferable and non-hedgeable. | |||||||||||||||||
In December 2007, the SEC issued SAB No. 110, Share-Based Payment, ("SAB No. 110"). SAB No. 110 was effective January 1, 2008 and expresses the views of the Staff of the SEC with respect to extending the use of the simplified method, as discussed in SAB No. 107, in developing an estimate of the expected term of "plain vanilla" share options in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The Company will continue to use the simplified method until it has the historical data necessary to provide a reasonable estimate of expected life in accordance with SAB No. 107, as amended by SAB No. 110. For the expected term, the Company has "plain-vanilla" stock options, and therefore used a simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term for options granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 as permitted by SAB No. 107.The Company expenses ratably over the vesting period the cost of the stock options granted to employees and non-employee directors. The total stock based compensation cost for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014 which included stock based compensation charges related to the Company's 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and RSU's was $135 and $645, respectively. In comparison, the total compensation cost for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 was $326 and $1,216, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
At June 30, 2014, the total compensation cost related to non-vested options not yet recognized was $1,283, which will be recognized over the next four years assuming the employees complete their service period for vesting of the options. | |||||||||||||||||

Restricted Stock Units | |||||||||||||||||
The Company grants restricted stock units ("RSUs") to executive officers and employees pursuant to the 2010 Plan from time to time. There is no direct cost to the recipients of RSUs, except for any applicable taxes. | |||||||||||||||||
Each RSU award that was granted to the Company's executive officers and employees represents one share of common stock. Each year following the annual vesting date, between January 1st and March 15th, the Company will issue common stock for each vested RSU. During the period when the RSU is vested but not distributed, the RSUs cannot be transferred and the grantee has no voting rights. If the Company declares a dividend, RSU recipients will receive payment based upon the percentage of RSUs that have vested prior to the date of declaration. The costs of the awards, determined as the fair market value of the shares on the grant date, are expensed per the vesting schedule outlined in the award. | |||||||||||||||||
Based on historical experience of option cancellations, the Company has estimated an annualized forfeiture rate of 10%. Forfeiture rates will be adjusted over the requisite service period when actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the estimate. | |||||||||||||||||
The stock-based compensation expense associated with the RSUs has been recorded in the statement of operations and in additional paid-in-capital on the balance sheets as follows: | |||||||||||||||||

2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan | |||||||||||||||||
The Company's 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") was adopted by its board of directors and approved by its stockholders on March 20, 2007. The Purchase Plan became effective upon the closing of the Company's initial public offering. The Purchase Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. | |||||||||||||||||
Under the Purchase Plan, eligible employees may contribute up to 15% of their eligible earnings for the period of that offering withheld for the purchase of common stock under the Purchase Plan. The employee's purchase price is equal to the lower of: 85% of the fair market value per share on the start date of the offering period in which the employee is enrolled or 85% of the fair market value per share on the semi-annual purchase date. The Purchase Plan imposes a limitation upon a participant's right to acquire common stock if immediately after the purchase the employee would own 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of the Company's common stock or of any of its affiliates. The Purchase Plan provides for an automatic rollover when the purchase price for a new offering period is lower than previously established purchase price(s). The Purchase Plan also provides for a one-time election that allows an employee the opportunity to enroll into a new offering period when the new offering is higher than their current offering price. This election must be made within 30 days from the start of a new offering period. Offering periods are twenty-seven months in length. The compensation charge in connection with the Purchase Plan for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014 was $2 and $3, respectively. In comparison, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, the Company expensed $8 and $1, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
An aggregate of 500,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance pursuant to purchase rights to be granted to the Company's eligible employees under the Purchase Plan. The Purchase Plan shares are replenished annually on the first day of each calendar year by virtue of an evergreen provision. The provision allows for share replenishment equal to the lesser of 1% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on that date or 25,000 shares. As of June 30, 2013 and 2014, a total of 366,926 and 383,737 shares, respectively, were reserved and available for issuance under the Purchase Plan.

5. Income Taxes | |
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10-25 ("ASC 740-10-25"), Accounting for Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company files U.S. federal and state tax returns and has determined that its major tax jurisdictions are the United States and Connecticut. The tax years ended in 2010 through 2013 remain open and subject to examination by the appropriate governmental agencies in the United States and Connecticut. | |
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes limitations on the use of U.S. federal net operating losses ("NOLs") upon a greater than 50% change in ownership in the Company within the three-year period preceding the date of ownership change. The Company's NOLs will continue to be available to offset taxable income (until such NOLs are either used or expire) subject to the Section 382 annual limitation. If the Section 382 annual limitation amount is not fully utilized in a particular tax year, then the unused portion from that particular tax year will be added to the Section 382 annual limitation in subsequent years. The Company has determined that ownership change, under Section 382, occurred as a result of the May 2011financing and therefore, the ability to utilize its current NOLs is further limited. | |
The Company has approximately $58 million of NOLs at the end of the prior fiscal year, which, if not used, expire beginning in 2024 through 2033. | |
The Company's effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2014 was 0% and differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to the effects of state income taxes and a full valuation allowance offsetting its deferred tax assets. |

June 2013 Public Offering | |||||
On June 24, 2013, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 4,482,760 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $4.35 per share. On July 22, 2013, the Company issued 236,007 additional shares of common stock, at the public offering price of $4.35 per share, in connection with the underwriters' exercise of a portion of their over-allotment option. The Company received net proceeds from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and expenses, of $19.3 million, of which $18.3 million was received and recorded in June 2013 and $1.0 million was received and recorded in July 2013. | |||||
June 2012 Private Placement | |||||
In June 2012, the Company completed a private placement (the "2012 Private Placement") of an aggregate of 4,250,020 shares of the Company's common stock, 3,605,607 shares of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,749,469 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.66 per share. For each unit consisting of either a share of common stock or Series B Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock, the purchasers in the June 2012 Private Placement paid a negotiated price of $2.355. The warrants are immediately exercisable and will expire on June 26, 2017, five years from the original issuance date of June 27, 2012. The Company received net proceeds, after deducting placement agents' fees and other transaction expenses, of approximately $17,100 from the 2012 Private Placement. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company's common stock at any time at the option of the holder, except that the securities purchase agreement that the Company entered into in connection with the 2012 Private Placement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") provides that a holder will be prohibited from converting shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of common stock if, as a result of such conversion, such holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.98% of the total number of shares of common stock then issued and outstanding. In the event of the Company's liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will receive a payment equal to $0.01 per share of Series B Preferred Stock before any proceeds are distributed to the holders of common stock. After the payment of this preferential amount, and subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, holders of Series B Preferred Stock will participate ratably in the distribution of any remaining assets with the common stock and any other class or series of capital stock that participates with the common stock in such distributions. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock will generally have no voting rights, except as required by law and except that the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock will be required to amend the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, and the Company is required to pay, dividends on shares of the Series B Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) to 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, as and if such dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) are paid on shares of the common stock. | |||||
As required by the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 27, 2012, which was within 30 days after the closing of the 2012 Private Placement. The Registration Statement, which was declared effective on August 13, 2012, registers the resale of the shares of common stock and Series B Preferred Stock issued and sold in the 2012 Private Placement, the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock issued and sold in the 2012 Private Placement, and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued and sold in the 2012 Private Placement. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to pay liquidated damages to the purchasers in the 2012 Private Placement if, after effectiveness of the Registration Statement and subject to certain specified exceptions, the Company suspends the use of the Registration Statement or the Registration Statement ceases to remain continuously effective as to all the securities for which it is required to be effective (each such event, a "Registration Default"). Subject to specified exceptions, for each 30-day period or portion thereof during which a Registration Default remains uncured, the Company is obligated to pay liquidated damages to each purchaser in cash in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by each such purchaser in the 2012 Private Placement, up to a maximum of 8.0% of such aggregate purchase price. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company does not believe that it is probable that it will be obligated to pay any such liquidated damages. Accordingly, the Company has not established an accrual for liquidated damages. | |||||
In the event that the Company enters into a merger or change of control transaction, the holders of the warrants issued in the 2012 Private Placement will be entitled to receive consideration as if they had exercised the warrants immediately prior to such transaction, or they may require the Company to purchase the unexercised warrants at the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant) of the warrant on the date of such transaction. The holders have up to 30 days following any such transaction to exercise this right. As a result of this provision, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities at their fair value on each reporting date. | |||||
At June 30, 2014, the fair value of the warrant liability determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model was approximately $2,342. In comparison, the fair value of the warrant liability at September 30, 2013 was $4,958. | |||||
During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an adjustment to fair value of common stock warrant liability of $(1,258) and $(2,616) respectively, within Other (income)/expense, to reflect a decrease in the valuation of the warrants from September 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014. | |||||

May 2011 Registered Direct Offering | |||||
In May 2011, the Company completed a registered direct offering (the "May 2011 Offering") of an aggregate of 3,018,736 shares of the Company's common stock, 1,813,944 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,256,929 shares of the Company's common stock. The shares and warrants were sold in units consisting of (i) one share of common stock and (ii) one warrant to purchase 0.1625 of a share of common stock, at an exercise price of $9.92 per share of the Company's common stock. However, one investor also purchased units consisting of one share of Series A Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.1625 of a share of common stock. No fractional warrants were issued. Each unit was sold at a price of $8.64 per unit. These units were not issued or certificated. The shares and warrants were immediately separated. The warrants will expire on May 17, 2016, five years from the original issuance date of May 18, 2011. The Company received net proceeds, after deducting placement agents' fees and other offering expenses, of approximately $28,000 from the May 2011 Offering. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued in the May 2011 Offering have been converted into an aggregate of 453,483 shares of common stock. In the event that the Company enters into a merger or change of control transaction, the holders of the warrants issued in the May 2011 Offering will be entitled to receive consideration as if they had exercised the warrants immediately prior to such transaction, or they may require the Company to purchase the unexercised warrants at the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant) of the warrant on the date of such transaction. As per terms of the warrant, the holders have up to 30 days following any such transaction to exercise this right. As a result of this provision, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities at their fair value on each reporting date. | |||||
At June 30, 2014, the fair value of the warrant liability determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model was approximately $71. In comparison, the fair value of the warrant liability at September 30, 2013 was $1,163. | |||||
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an adjustment to fair value of common stock warrant liability of $(290) and $(1,092), respectively, within Other (income)/expense, to reflect a decrease in the valuation of the warrants from September 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014. | |||||

Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Warrant Liability | |||||
The Company has determined its warrant liability to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate, as of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the warrants issued in the June 2012 Private Placement and the May 2011 Offering. | |||||
As of June 30, 2014, the Company estimated such fair value using the following assumptions: | |||||
June 2012 Financing | 30-Jun-14 | ||||
Stock price | $ | 2.16 | |||
Exercise price | $ | 2.66 | |||
Risk-free interest rate | 0.88 | % | |||
Expected remaining term | 2.99 | ||||
Expected volatility | 76 | % | |||
Dividend yield | — | ||||
Warrants outstanding | 2,749,469 | ||||
May 2011 Offering | 30-Jun-14 | ||||
Stock price | $ | 2.16 | |||
Exercise price | $ | 9.92 | |||
Risk-free interest rate | 0. 47 | % | |||
Expected remaining term | 1.88 | ||||
Expected volatility | 60 | % | |||
Dividend yield | — | ||||
Warrants outstanding | 2,256,929 | ||||
Risk-Free Interest Rate. This is the United States Treasury rate for the measurement date having a term equal to the expected remaining term of the warrant. An increase in the risk-free interest rate will increase the fair value and the associated derivative liability. | |||||
Term of Warrants. This is the period of time over which the warrant is expected to remain outstanding and is based on management's estimate, taking into consideration the remaining contractual life. | |||||
Expected Volatility. This is a measure of the amount by which the stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate. The Company uses a weighted-average of its historic volatility over the retrospective period corresponding to the expected remaining term of the warrants on the measurement date. An increase in the expected volatility will increase the fair value and the associated derivative liability. | |||||
Dividend Yield. The Company has not made any dividend payments nor does it have plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. An increase in the dividend yield will decrease the fair value and the associated derivative liability. | |||||
Participating Securities | |||||
If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells securities or other property to holders of any class of common stock, the holders of the warrants are entitled to also acquire those same securities as if they held the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon complete exercise of the warrants. | |||||
As such, given that the warrant holders will participate fully on any dividends or dividend equivalents, the Company determined that the warrants are participating securities and therefore are subject to ASC 260-10-55 earnings per share. These securities were excluded from the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014 loss per share calculation since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. |

Leases | |
As of June 30, 2014, the Company leased three facilities in Danbury, Connecticut. | |
The Company renewed its lease for laboratory space in November 2013 for one year. This lease provides for annual basic lease payments of $68, plus the annual Consumers Price Index ("CPI") increase for October, not to exceed 6%, plus operating expenses. | |
The Company also renewed its lease agreement for additional office space adjacent to its laboratory space in November 2013 for one year. This lease provides for annual basic lease payments of $31, plus the annual CPI increase for October, not to exceed 6%, plus operating expenses. | |
In November 2013, the Company renewed its lease for its corporate office for five years. This lease provides for annual basic lease payments of $388, plus the annual CPI increase for May, not to exceed 6%, plus operating expenses. | |
Rent expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014, was $165 and $476, respectively. In comparison, rent expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, was $164 and $481, respectively. | |
Other Commitments | |
The Company has entered into certain licensing and collaboration agreements for products currently under development. The Company may be obligated in future periods to make additional payments, which would become due and payable only upon the achievement of certain research and development, regulatory, and approval milestones. The specific timing of such milestones cannot be predicted and depend upon future discretionary research and clinical developments, as well as, regulatory agency actions. Further, under the terms of certain agreements the Company may be obligated to pay commercial milestones contingent upon the realization of sales revenues and sublicense revenues. Due to the long range nature of such commercial milestones, they are neither probable at this time nor predictable, and consequently are not considered contingent milestone payment amounts. |

9. Government Grants | |
Grants received are recognized as grant income when the grants become receivable, provided there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and there is reasonable assurance the grant will be received. The Company requests cash funding under approved grants as expenses are incurred (not in advance) and reports these receipts on the statement of operations as a separate line item entitled "Government Grants." The corresponding expenses are included in research and development expenses. In July and September 2012, the Company was awarded two National Institutes of Health grants for the development of a concentrated ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulation and a stable glucagon formulation, respectively, for use in an artificial pancreas. Both awards are for two years and total approximately $582 and $583, respectively. | |
Work on the grant for the development of a concentrated ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulation started in August 2012 and completed in June 2014. Expenses incurred were $69 and $167, respectively for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 and $203, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014 the Company has recorded a grant receivable in the amount of $69. | |
Work on the grant for the stable glucagon formulation started in January 2013 and completed in June 2014. Expenses incurred were $158 and $364 respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014 and $25 and $46, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has recorded a grant receivable in the amount of $158. | |
The Company reported grant income of $227 and $531 respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014. In comparison, the Company reported grant income of $25 and $249 respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, all grant income was earned and recorded. |

In May 2013, the Company entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with MLV & Co. LLC ("MLV"), under which the Company may initially issue and sell shares of common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $14 million from time to time through MLV as the Company's sales agent. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had not issued any shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. During the period from July 1 through July 31, 2014, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,476,974 shares of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement and received proceeds, net of sales agent commissions, of $2.9 million. | |
On July 25, 2014, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), together with a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC ("LPC"). Under the terms, and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right to sell to LPC, and LPC is obligated to purchase, up to $15,000,000 in shares of common stock, subject to certain limitations, from time to time over the 36-month period commencing on the date that a registration statement, which the Company agreed to file with the SEC pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, is declared effective by the SEC and a final prospectus in connection therewith is filed. The Company may direct LPC, at its sole discretion and subject to certain conditions, to purchase up to 150,000 shares of common stock in regular purchases, increasing to amounts of up to 250,000 shares, depending upon the closing sale price of the common stock. In addition, the Company may direct LPC to purchase additional shares as accelerated purchases if, on the date of a regular purchase, the closing sale price of the common stock is not below $2.50 per share (subject to adjustment). The purchase price of shares of common stock to be purchased under the Purchase Agreement will be based on the prevailing market prices of such shares at the time of sales, but in no event will the Company be able to sell shares to LPC on a day when the closing sale price of the common stock closing price is less than a floor price of $1.50 per share (subject to adjustment). The Company will control the timing and amount of any sales of common stock to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. As consideration for LPC's commitment to purchase shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to LPC 95,000 shares of Common Stock as commitment shares. To date the Company has not issued any shares of common stock under the purchase agreement. |
