Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Liquidity, Going Concern and Uncertainties The Companys operations are subject to a number of factors that can affect its operating results and financial condition. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the Companys ability to raise capital to support its operations; the cost, timing and results of clinical trials; the ability to obtain regulatory approval to market the Companys products; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies; the price of, and demand for, Company products; and the Companys ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. To date, the Companys commercial operations have not generated sufficient revenues to enable profitability. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $131.9 million, and had incurred net losses of $5.1 million and $12.7 million for the three and six months then ended. Based on the current development plans for Neutrolin in both the U.S. and foreign markets (including the ongoing hemodialysis Phase 3 clinical trial in the U.S.) and the Companys other operating requirements, the Companys existing cash and short-term investments at June 30, 2017 will fund its operations into the first quarter of 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. At June 30, 2017, approximately $3.7 million remained available for sale under an April 2015 $40.0 million At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the Current ATM program) with MLV & Co. LLC (MLV), which was a subsidiary of FBR Capital Markets & Co. (FBR), but was combined with B. Riley Financial, Inc. in June 2017. At June 30, 2017, the Company also had approximately $46.0 million available under its current shelf registration for the issuance of equity, debt or equity-linked securities unrelated to the Current ATM program, which amount was originally $60.0 million. The sale of any equity securities through September 15, 2017 under this portion of the shelf registration statement is subject to participation rights held by Manchester Securities Corp. (Manchester) pursuant to which Manchester must either be offered 60% participation in such equity financing or the Company must obtain a waiver from Manchester. On May 3, 2017, the Company closed on an equity financing under its current shelf registration statement, which raised net proceeds of approximately $12.8 million (see Note 3). In August 2016, the Company entered into a new sales agreement with FBR whereby the Company can sell up to $40 million of shares of its common stock (the Pending ATM Program), but only if the Company obtains a waiver from Manchester of its participation rights and the pending registration statement covering this Pending ATM Program is declared effective, which conditions might not be met. The Companys continued operations including completion of its ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial as well as the other Phase 3 clinical program requirements for Neutrolin in the U.S. will depend on its ability to raise additional capital. Management is actively pursuing financing plans but can provide no assurances that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Without this funding, the Company will be required to delay, scale back or eliminate its ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial as well as work on the other Phase 3 clinical program requirements for Neutrolin in CRBSI which would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Basis of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and CorMedix Europe GmbH, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Financial Instruments Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other interest bearing accounts, the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The appropriate classification of marketable securities is determined at the time of purchase and reevaluated as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary are reported net of tax in other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends earned are included in income (expense). For declines in the fair value of equity securities that are considered other-than-temporary, impairment losses are charged to other (income) expense, net. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost. There were no deemed permanent impairments at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016. The Companys marketable securities are highly liquid and consist of U.S. government agency securities, high-grade corporate obligations and commercial paper with original maturities of more than 90 days. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, all of the Companys investments had contractual maturities of less than one year. The following table summarizes the amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and the fair value at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016: June 30, 2017: Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Losses Gross Unrealized Gains Fair Value Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 6,386,968 $ (19 ) $ 23 $ 6,386,972 U.S. Government Securities 3,993,522 (302 ) - 3,993,220 Corporate Securities 5,300,711 (2,901 ) 401 5,298,211 Commercial Paper 1,592,744 - - 1,592,744 Subtotal 10,886,977 (3,203 ) 401 10,884,175 Total June 30, 2017 $ 17,273,945 $ (3,222 ) $ 424 $ 17,271,147 December 31, 2016: Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 95,949 $ - $ - $ 95,949 Corporate Securities 10,619,583 (13,212 ) - 10,606,371 Commercial Paper 1,494,549 - - 1,494,549 Subtotal 12,114,132 (13,212 ) - 12,100,920 Total December 31, 2016 $ 12,210,081 $ (13,212 ) $ - $ 12,196,869 Fair Value Measurements The Companys financial instruments recorded in the consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses and warrant derivatives (see Note 3 Stockholders Equity, Warrants). The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of their maturity dates. The Company categorizes its financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows: ● Level 1 inputsObservable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. ● Level 2 inputs Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs). ● Level 3 inputsUnobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are The following table provides the carrying value and fair value of the Companys financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016: June 30, 2017: Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money Market Funds $ 6,386,972 $ 6,386,972 $ - $ - U.S. Government Securities 3,993,220 - 3,993,220 - Corporate Securities 5,298,211 - 5,298,211 - Commercial Paper 1,592,744 - 1,592,744 - Series A Warrants 377,041 - - 377,041 Series B Warrants 1,382,483 - - 1,382,483 Underwriters Warrants 120,653 - - 120,653 Subtotal 12,764,352 - 10,884,175 $ 1,880,177 Total June 30, 2017 $ 19,151,324 $ 6,386,972 $ 10,884,175 $ 1,880,177 December 31, 2016: Money Market Funds $ 95,949 $ 95,949 $ - $ - Corporate Securities 10,606,371 - 10,606,371 - Commercial Paper 1,494,549 - 1,494,549 - Subtotal 12,100,920 - 12,100,920 $ - Total December 31, 2016 $ 12,196,869 $ 95,949 $ 12,100,920 $ - Series A Warrants Series B Warrants Underwriters Warrants Fair value, issuance date (May 3, 2017) $ 0.08 $ 0.17 $ 0.18 Decrease in fair value (0.05 ) (0.07 ) (0.07 ) Fair value, June 30, 2017 $ 0.03 $ 0.10 $ 0.11 Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars (USD), the reporting currency of the Company. For the financial statements of the Companys foreign subsidiary, whose functional currency is the EURO, foreign currency asset and liability amounts are translated into USD at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period in which the income and expenses were recognized. Translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive loss. The Company has intercompany loans between the parent company based in New Jersey and its German subsidiary. The intercompany loans outstanding are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recognized in other comprehensive income. Foreign currency exchange transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity recording the transaction. Restricted Cash As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Companys restricted cash is in connection with the patent and utility model infringement proceedings against TauroPharm (see Note 5). The Company was required by the District Court Mannheim to provide a security deposit of approximately $132,000 to cover legal fees in the event TauroPharm is entitled to reimbursement of these costs. The Company furthermore had to provide a deposit in the amount of $40,000 in connection with the unfair competition proceedings in Cologne. Prepaid Research and Development Prepaid expenses consist of payments made in advance to vendors relating to service contracts for clinical trial development and other research and development. These advanced payments are amortized to expense either as services are performed or over the relevant service period using the straight-line method. Inventories, net Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a first in, first out basis. Inventories consist of raw materials (including labeling and packaging), work-in-process, and finished goods, if any, for the Neutrolin product. Inventories consist of the following: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Raw materials $ 280,260 $ 79,900 Work in process 193,243 463,897 Finished goods 82,631 52,936 Inventory reserve (243,000 ) (430,000 ) Total $ 313,134 $ 166,733 Accrued Expenses Accrued expenses consist of the following: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Professional and consulting fees $ 255,588 $ 335,198 Accrued payroll and payroll taxes 802,519 737,607 Clinical trial and manufacturing development 666,032 875,500 Product development 80,001 374,839 Market research 141,466 - Other 96,302 19,208 Total $ 2,041,908 $ 2,342,352 Derivative Liability The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks; however, the Company has certain financial instruments that qualify as derivatives and are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those instruments or any potential embedded components of those instruments qualify as derivatives that need to be separately accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging The Company accounts for stock warrants as either equity instruments or derivative liabilities depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement. Stock warrants that allow for cash settlement or meet certain other criteria are accounted for as derivative liabilities. The changes in fair value of the warrant liabilities are re-measured at each balance sheet date and recorded as income or expense. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized from product sales when the following four revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue once the four revenue recognition criteria are met in accordance with the terms of its various distribution agreements. Deferred Revenue In October 2015, the Company shipped product with less than 75% of its remaining shelf life to a customer and issued a guarantee that the specific product shipped would be replaced by the Company if the customer was not able to sell the product before it expired. As a result of this warranty, the Company may have an additional performance obligation (i.e. accept returned product and deliver new product to the customer) if the customer is unable to sell the short-dated product. Due to limited sales experience with the customer, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of the warranty obligation that may be incurred as a result of this shipment. Therefore, the Company has deferred the revenue and related cost of sales associated with the shipment of this product, presented net deferred revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $33,400 and $64,000 of deferred revenue and $19,600 and $37,600 in related cost of sales resulting in net amount of $13,800 and $26,400, respectively. Also, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company had recorded an additional net deferred revenue in the amount of $13,000 and $24,000, respectively. Deferred revenue, net at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 amounted to approximately $101,900 and $104,200, respectively. Loss per common share Basic loss per common share excludes any potential dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. However, since their effect is anti-dilutive, the Company has excluded potentially dilutive shares. The following potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 Series C non-voting convertible preferred stock 2,790,000 2,865,000 Series D non-voting convertible preferred stock 1,479,240 1,479,240 Series E non-voting convertible preferred stock 1,959,759 1,959,759 Shares underlying outstanding warrants 33,052,578 4,006,468 Shares underlying restricted stock units 61,414 - Shares underlying outstanding stock options 5,709,545 3,984,545 Total 45,052,536 14,295,012 Shares underlying outstanding warrants include an aggregate of 29,046,110 warrants issued on an underwritten public offering which closed on May 3, 2017 (see Note 3). Currently, the Company does not have sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants. Stock-Based Compensation Share-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for options with service or performance-based conditions and a Monte Carlo option pricing model for options with market conditions. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employees requisite service period on a straight-line basis. Effective October 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09 to account for forfeitures as they occur. All share-based awards will be recognized on a straight-line method, assuming all awards granted will vest. Forfeitures of share-based awards will be recognized in the period in which they occur. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, share-based compensation expense was recognized by applying the expected forfeiture rate during the vesting period to the fair value of the award. As of January 1, 2016, a cumulative effect adjustment of $129,730 was recognized to reflect the forfeiture rate that had been applied to unvested option awards prior to fiscal year 2016. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Companys condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were adjusted to reflect the impact. The Company accounts for stock options granted to non-employees on a fair value basis using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC No. 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees Research and Development Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development includes fees associated with operational consultants, contract clinical research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, clinical site fees, contract laboratory research organizations, contract central testing laboratories, licensing activities, and allocated executive, human resources and facilities expenses. The Company accrues for costs incurred as the services are being provided by monitoring the status of the trial and the invoices received from its external service providers. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accruals in the period when actual costs become known. Costs related to the acquisition of technology rights and patents for which development work is still in process are charged to operations as incurred and considered a component of research and development expense. Recent Authoritative Pronouncements In July 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features and recharacterizes the indefinite deferral of certain provisions within the guidance for distinguishing liabilities from equity. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements. |
