Summary of significant accounting policies | Summary of significant accounting policies Basis of presentation and consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emergent and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed 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, 2023, as filed with the SEC on March 8, 2024. All adjustments contained in the accompanying unaudited condensed 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, 2024. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for an entire year. Going concern As of June 30, 2024, there was $222.7 million outstanding on the Company’s senior revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) and $190.3 million on the senior term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility” and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”) that mature in May 2025 and the Senior Credit Facilities are subject to a forbearance agreement as described below, with respect to the Company’s noncompliance with certain operational and financial covenants. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $69.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. As a result of these factors, the Company determined that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The evaluation considered the potential mitigating effects of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented. Management has evaluated the mitigating effects of its plans to determine if it is probable that (1) the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date the financial statements are issued, and (2) when implemented, the plans will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans include (A) further amending the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, and (B) improving operating performance, reducing working capital and the potential of the sale of assets to pay down the Senior Secured Credit Facilities before they become due. As neither plan is in the complete control of management, neither is probable of occurring. In this regard, management may not be able to further amend the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or find a buyer for the assets it is willing to divest and may not be able to close on any asset sale for which management is able to reach an agreement with a buyer. As a result, the Company may be unable to meet its obligations as they become due. In addition, any asset sales that are completed could have potential negative impacts on the Company's future operating cash flows and profitability. Debt Covenants The Senior Secured Credit Facilities mature in May 2025, and provide for (1) revolving credit commitments, (2) a term loan, and (3) the issuance of commercial letters of credit. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum consolidated EBITDA covenant under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and did not satisfy a covenant requiring it to raise not less than $75.0 million through issuance of equity and/or unsecured indebtedness by April 30, 2024. In addition, the Company was required to deliver audited annual financial statements without a “going concern” explanatory paragraph with respect to its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was not achieved. However, on February 29, 2024, the requisite lenders agreed to enter into a Forbearance Agreement and Sixth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement and Amendment”) with the Company, which included a limited waiver of certain events of default, including those that resulted from (a) any violation of the financial covenants set forth in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities with respect to the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2023 and the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2024 and (b) the going concern explanatory paragraph contained in the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. This forbearance period (the “Forbearance Period”) expired on April 30, 2024. On April 29, 2024, the requisite lenders agreed to enter into a Consent, Waiver and Seventh Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”) with the Company. The Seventh Amendment, among other things: (a) reduces available commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility to $240.0 million through July 30, 2024, to $210.0 million from July 31, 2024 through September 29, 2024, to $205.0 million from September 30, 2024 through October 30, 2024, to $180.0 million from October 31, 2024 through November 29, 2024, and to $170.0 million from November 30, 2024 and thereafter (in each case subject to potential limited additional borrowings from a specified reserve with the consent of the lenders); (b) amends the interest rate benchmark in the definition of Applicable Margin from (i) 5.00% per annum to 7.00% per annum with respect to Base Rate Loans and (ii) 6.50% per annum to 8.50% per annum with respect to SOFR Loans, RFR Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans; and (c) requires the Company to raise equity or unsecured indebtedness of at least $85.0 million by July 31, 2024 (or such later date on or before September 29, 2024 as agreed to by the Administrative Agent), provided that such requirement will be reduced by the aggregate net cash proceeds received from certain dispositions that are applied to reduce amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company expects to apply the proceeds from the Camden Transaction and the RSDL ® Transaction to reduce borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility in order to satisfy the capital raise requirement, the deadline for which was recently extended to September 29, 2024. There is no guarantee the Company will be able to meet the capital raise requirement by this deadline. In addition, pursuant to the Seventh Amendment, the Company is obligated to apply 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received from certain dispositions to the prepayment of amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, except where such proceeds exceed $85,000,000, in which case such mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Credit Facility will no longer be required. Mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan Facility will not be required unless and until the aggregate net proceeds from such dispositions exceed $85,000,000, at which point 100% of such proceeds must be used toward repayment of amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility. Under the Seventh Amendment, the Company is also subject to (a) a monthly minimum consolidated EBITDA covenant through May 15, 2025 and a monthly maximum capital expenditures covenant through March 31, 2025, (b) a minimum liquidity requirement and (c) additional financial statement reporting and business plan forecast obligations. In connection with the entry into the Seventh Amendment, the Company paid an amendment fee of an aggregate amount equal to 0.5% of the total credit exposure as of the Seventh Amendment effective date and will be required to pay an additional amendment fee of 1.0% of total credit exposure at December 1, 2024 and each month thereafter. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the Company’s other debt facilities are described in more detail below in Note 10, “Debt”. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company is in compliance with the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. If the Company defaults under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the lenders would have the right to accelerate the repayment of borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, which would result in a cross-default of the Company’s obligations under the 3.875% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Unsecured Notes”). If the Company were unable to obtain additional waivers or forbearance of such covenants or defaults, to successfully renegotiate the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, or to cure the potential covenant breach or default, and the lenders enforced one or more of their rights upon default and/or the default resulted in a cross-default under the Senior Unsecured Notes, the Company would be unable to meet its obligations under those agreements and would likely be forced into insolvency proceedings. Based on the facts and circumstances described above, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to comply with its debt covenants in the future. As a result, the Company continues to evaluate a number of factors related to its ability to continue as a going concern, including its ability to comply with the terms and operating and financial covenants required by the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, its ability to satisfy the capital raise requirement required by the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, other market conditions, economic conditions, particularly in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, and disruptions or volatility caused by factors such as regional conflicts, inflation, and supply chain disruptions. The Company has engaged legal and financial advisors to assist with a comprehensive review of alternatives to enhance its capital structure, which may include taking steps to cure any potential defaults or seeking forbearance, waivers, further cost reductions, asset sales, restructurings or other alternatives to avoid an event of default. Significant accounting policies During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there have been no significant changes to the Company's summary of significant accounting policies contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC that have materially impacted the presentation of the Company's financial statements. Fair value measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, an exit price, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants 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, includes: 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. On a recurring basis, the Company measures and records money market funds (Level 1), interest-rate swap arrangements and time deposits (Level 2) and contingent purchase consideration (Level 3) using fair value measurements in the accompanying financial statements. The carrying amounts of the Company's short-term financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. The carrying amounts of the Company’s long-term variable interest rate debt arrangements (Level 2) approximate their fair values. New accounting standards From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board that the Company adopts as of the pronouncement's specified effective date. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07 ("ASU 2023-07"), Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, on an annual and interim basis, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The amendments in the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , which requires a public business entity to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. The amendments in the ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on it consolidated financial statements. |
