Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Nature of the Business | 1. Nature of the Business Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. (“Flexion” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on November 5, 2007. Flexion is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel, local therapies for the treatment of patients with musculoskeletal conditions, beginning with osteoarthritis, (“OA”), a type of degenerative arthritis. The Company has an approved product, ZILRETTA®, which it markets in the United States. ZILRETTA is the first and only extended-release, intra-articular, or IA (meaning in the joint), injection indicated for the management of OA knee pain. ZILRETTA is a non-opioid therapy that employs Flexion’s proprietary microsphere technology to provide effective pain relief. The pivotal Phase 3 trial, on which the approval of ZILRETTA was based, showed that ZILRETTA met the primary endpoint of pain reduction at Week 12, with statistically significant pain relief extending through Week 16. The Company also has two pipeline programs focused on the local treatment of musculoskeletal conditions: FX201, which is an investigational IA gene therapy product candidate in clinical development for the treatment of OA, and FX301, a preclinical product candidate, which is being developed as a locally administered peripheral nerve block for control of post-operative pain. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to companies in the biopharmaceutical industry, including, but not limited to, new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, and the ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. Successfully commercializing ZILRETTA requires significant sales and marketing efforts and the Company’s pipeline programs may require significant additional research and development efforts, including extensive preclinical and clinical testing. These activities will in turn require significant amounts of capital, qualified personnel and adequate infrastructure. There can be no assurance when, if ever, the Company will realize significant revenue from the sales of ZILRETTA or if the development efforts supporting the Company’s pipeline, including future clinical trials, will be successful. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of approximately , In connection with the Term Loan described in Note 10, if the Company’s cash balance in the future decreases below $80 million, the Company will need to remain in compliance with a minimum monthly net revenue covenant (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), measured on a trailing twelve month basis. The lender also has the ability to call debt based on a material adverse change clause, which is subjectively defined. If the Company is not in compliance with the monthly net revenue covenants or the subjective acceleration clauses are triggered under the agreement, then the lender may call the debt resulting in the Company immediately needing additional funds. As of December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. |

Financing Transactions | 2. Financing Transactions On August 2, 2019, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit and security agreement (the “amended and restated credit and security agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank as agent, MidCap Financial Trust, Flexpoint MCLS Holdings, LLC, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), providing for a term loan of $40.0 million and a revolving credit facility of up to $20.0 million, both of which mature on January 1, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company concurrently borrowed the $40.0 million term loan and used $7.7 million of the proceeds to repay the remaining amount owed on the 2015 term loan. On October 16, 2017, the Company completed a follow-on public offering of its common stock, which resulted in the sale of 5,520,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price to the public of $25.50 per share including shares sold pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company received net proceeds from the follow-on financing of $132.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering costs paid by the Company On May 2, 2017, the Company issued an aggregate of $201.3 million principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes. The 2024 Convertible Notes have a maturity date of May 1, 2024 are unsecured and accrue interest at a rate of 3.375% per annum, payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning November 1, 2017. The Company received $194.8 million for the sale of the 2024 Convertible Notes, after deducting fees and expenses of $6.5 million. The Company’s total issued common stock as of December 31, 2019 was 38,361,476 shares. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for financial information, including the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include estimates related to revenue and accrued expenses related to preclinical and clinical development costs. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known by the Company’s management. Revenue Recognition On October 6, 2017, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, (the FDA), approved ZILRETTA. The Company entered into a limited number of arrangements with specialty distributors and a specialty pharmacy in the U.S. to distribute ZILRETTA. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract with a customer under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract , determines those that are performance obligations, and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Product Revenue, Net — The Company primarily sells ZILRETTA to specialty distributors and a specialty pharmacy, who then subsequently resell ZILRETTA to physicians, clinics and certain medical centers or hospitals. The Company also contracts directly with healthcare providers and intermediaries such as Group Purchasing Organizations (“GPOs”). In addition, the Company enters into arrangements with government payers that provide for government mandated rebates and chargebacks with respect to the purchase of ZILRETTA. The Company recognizes revenue on product sales when the customer obtains control of the Company's product, which occurs at a point in time (upon delivery to the customer). The Company has determined that the delivery of ZILRETTA to its customers constitutes a single performance obligation. There are no other promises to deliver goods or services beyond what is specified in each accepted customer order. The Company has assessed the existence of a significant financing component in the agreements with its customers. The trade payment terms with our customers do not exceed one year and therefore the Company has elected to apply the practical expedient and no amount of consideration has been allocated as a financing component. Product revenues are recorded net of applicable reserves for variable consideration, including discounts and allowances. Transaction Price, including Variable Consideration — Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, product returns, government chargebacks, discounts and rebates, and other incentives, such as voluntary patient assistance, and other fee for service amounts that are detailed within contracts between the Company and its customers relating to the Company’s sale of its products. These reserves, as detailed below, are based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and are classified as reductions of accounts receivable (if the amount is payable to the customer) or a current liability (if the amount is payable to a party other than a customer). These estimates take into consideration a range of possible outcomes which are probability-weighted in accordance with the expected value method in Topic 606 for relevant factors such as current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts. The amount of variable consideration which is included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s original estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known. Service Fees and Allowances —The Company compensates its customers and GPOs for sales order management, data, and distribution services. However, the Company has determined such services received to date are not distinct from the Company’s sale of products to the customer and, therefore, these payments have been recorded as a reduction of revenue within the statement of operations and comprehensive loss through December 31, 2019, as well as a reduction to trade receivables, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Product Returns — Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for product that has been purchased from the Company based on the product’s expiration date. The Company estimates the amount of its product sales that may be returned by its customers and records this estimate as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized, as well as within accrued expenses and other current liabilities, net , on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company currently estimates product return liabilities using available industry data and its own sales information, including its visibility into the inventory remaining in the distribution channel. The Company has received an immaterial amount of returns to date and believes that returns of ZILRETTA will be minimal. Chargebacks — Chargebacks for fees and discounts to qualified government healthcare providers represent the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products to qualified VA hospitals and 340b entities at prices lower than the list prices charged to customers who directly purchase the product from the Company. The 340b Drug Discount Program is a US federal government program created in 1992 that requires drug manufacturers to provide outpatient drugs to eligible health care organizations and covered entities at significantly reduced prices. Customers charge the Company for the difference between what they pay for the product and the statutory selling price to the qualified government entity. These reserves are established in the same period that the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and trade receivables, net. Chargeback amounts are generally determined at the time of resale to the qualified government healthcare provider by customers, and the Company generally issues credits for such amounts within a few weeks of the Customer’s notification to the Company of the resale. Reserves for chargebacks consist of credits that the Company expects to issue for units that remain in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expects will be sold to qualified healthcare providers, and chargebacks that customers have claimed, but for which the Company has not yet issued a credit. Government Rebates — The Company is subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and Medicare. These reserves are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. For Medicare, the Company also estimates the number of patients in the prescription drug coverage gap for whom the Company will owe an additional liability under the Medicare Part D program. The Company anticipates its exposure to utilization from the Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program to be immaterial. For Medicaid programs, the Company estimates the portion of sales attributed to Medicaid patients and records a liability for the rebates to be paid to the respective state Medicaid programs. The Company’s liability for these rebates consists of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that have not been paid or for which an invoice has not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that will be made for product that has been recognized as revenue, but which remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. Purchaser/Provider Discounts and Rebates —Beginning in the third quarter of 2019, the Company began offering rebates to eligible purchasers and healthcare providers that are variable based on the volume of product purchased. Rebates are based on actual purchase levels during the rebate purchase period. The Company estimates these rebates and records such estimate in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. Other Incentives — Other incentives which the Company offers include voluntary patient assistance programs, such as the co-pay assistance program, which are intended to provide financial assistance to qualified commercially-insured patients with prescription drug co-payments required by payers. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance is based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expects to receive associated with product that has been recognized as revenue, but remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. The adjustments are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which is included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. To date, the Company’s only source of product revenue has been from the U.S. sales of ZILRETTA, which it began shipping to customers in October 2017. The following table summarizes activity in each of the product revenue allowance and reserve categories for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017: (In thousands) Service Fees, Allowances and Chargebacks Government Rebates and Other Incentives Product Returns Purchaser/Provider Discounts and Rebates Total Balance as of January 1, 2017 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — Provision related to sales in the current year 100 15 2 — 117 Credit or payments made during the period (40 ) — — — (40 ) Balance as of December 31, 2017 60 15 2 — 77 Provision related to sales in the current year 1,688 502 124 — 2,314 Credit or payments made during the period (1,147 ) (26 ) (1 ) — (1,174 ) Balance as of December 31, 2018 601 491 125 — 1,217 Provision related to sales in the current year 5,527 261 334 2,685 8,807 Credit or payments made during the period (4,281 ) (375 ) (57 ) (1,029 ) (5,742 ) Adjustments related to prior period sales — (129 ) — — (129 ) Balance as of December 31, 2019 $ 1,847 $ 248 $ 402 $ 1,656 $ 4,153 Inventory The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. The Company determines the cost of its inventories, which includes amounts related to materials and manufacturing overhead, on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company performs an assessment of the recoverability of capitalized inventory during each reporting period, and it writes down any excess and obsolete inventories to their estimated realizable value in the period in which the impairment is first identified. Such impairment charges, should they occur, are recorded within cost of sales. The determination of whether inventory costs will be realizable requires estimates by management. If actual market conditions are less favorable than projected by management, additional write-downs of inventory may be required, which would be recorded as a cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with the Company’s products after regulatory approval when, based on management’s judgment, future commercialization is considered probable and the future economic benefit is expected to be realized. Inventory acquired prior to receipt of marketing approval of a product candidate is expensed as research and development expense as incurred. Inventory that can be used in either the production of clinical or commercial product is expensed as research and development expense when selected for use in a clinical manufacturing campaign. Inventory produced that will be used in promotional marketing campaigns is expensed to selling, general and administrative expense when it is selected for use in a marketing program. Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Flexion Therapeutics Securities Corporation. The Company has eliminated all intercompany transactions for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. In addition, Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. is registered to do business in the United Kingdom through its branch office located in Swindon, United Kingdom. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are recorded net of customer allowances for distribution fees and chargebacks, and doubtful accounts. Allowances for distribution fees and chargebacks are based on contractual terms. The Company estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts based on existing contractual payment terms, actual payment patterns of its customers and individual customer circumstances. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts was not required. No accounts were written off during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company currently invests available cash in money market funds of a major financial institution, corporate bonds, government obligations and commercial paper. Marketable Securities Marketable securities consist of investments with original maturities greater than ninety days and less than one year from the balance sheet date. Long-term investments consist of investments with maturities of greater than one year. The Company classifies all of its investments, which consist solely of debt securities, as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis and are included in other income (loss). Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums is recorded in other income. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Estimated Useful Life (Years) Computers, office equipment, and minor computer software 3 Computer software 7 Manufacturing equipment 7-10 Furniture and fixtures 5 Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related asset. Costs of major additions and betterments are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Property and equipment includes construction-in-progress, that is not yet in service. Foreign Currencies The Company maintains a bank account designated in British Pounds. All foreign currency payables and cash balances are measured at the applicable exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. All associated gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Factors that the Company considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends, and significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets. If an impairment review is performed to evaluate a long-lived asset for recoverability, the Company compares forecasts of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the long-lived asset to its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss would be based on the excess of the carrying value of the impaired asset over its fair value, determined based on discounted cash flows. Debt Issuance Costs, net As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the carrying value of debt issuance costs was $2.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, and was presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amounts of long-term debt. In addition, $0.6 million, $0.6 million, and $0.4 million, respectively, of debt issuance costs were amortized and recognized as other expense in the statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. Research and Development Research and development expenses are comprised of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including salaries and benefits, facilities costs, overhead costs, depreciation, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing costs, contract services and other related costs. Research and development costs are expensed to operations as the related obligation is incurred. As part of the process of preparing its financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its accrued expenses. This process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders, communicating with applicable internal and vendor personnel to identify services that have been performed on the Company’s behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service when the Company has not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of the actual cost. The majority of the Company’s service providers invoice it monthly in arrears for services performed or when contractual milestones are met. The Company makes estimates of its accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in its financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to it at that time. The Company periodically confirms the accuracy of its estimates with the service providers and makes adjustments if necessary. Examples of estimated accrued research and development expenses include fees paid to: • CROs in connection with clinical studies; • investigative sites in connection with clinical studies; • vendors related to product manufacturing, development and distribution of clinical supplies; and • vendors in connection with preclinical development activities. The Company records expenses related to clinical studies and manufacturing development activities based on its estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with multiple CROs and manufacturing vendors that conduct and manage these activities on the Company’s behalf. The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation, vary from contract to contract, and may result in uneven payment flows. The Company makes estimates of its accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in its financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to it. If timelines or contracts are modified based upon changes in the clinical trial protocol or scope of work to be performed, the Company modifies its estimates of accrued expenses accordingly on a prospective basis. If the Company does not identify costs that it has begun to incur, or if it underestimates or overestimates the level of services performed or the costs of these services, the Company’s actual expenses could differ from its estimates. To date, the Company has not adjusted its estimates at any particular balance sheet date in any material amount. Patent Costs All patent-related costs incurred in connection with filing and prosecuting patent applications are recorded as general and administrative expenses as incurred, as recoverability of such expenditures is uncertain. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures all stock options and other stock based-awards granted to employees at the fair value at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the awards is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The straight-line method of expense recognition is applied to all awards with service-only conditions. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur and does not estimate future forfeitures. As such, previously recognized compensation expense for an award is reversed in the period that the award is forfeited. For stock awards that have a performance condition, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on its assessment of the probability that the performance condition will be achieved, using an accelerated attribution model, over the explicit or implicit service period. As a result of our adoption of “ASU 2018-07”, stock-based awards granted to non-employees are accounted for the same way as awards granted to employees, and such awards will not be re-measured at fair value each reporting period. We adopted this standard prospectively and there was no impact on previously issued financial statements. The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified, or in the case of a non-employee, in the same manner as the award recipient’s service costs are classified. Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Suppliers Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of commercial paper and corporate bonds. The Company generally invests its cash in money market funds, government and corporate bonds, and commercial paper at one financial institution. The Company does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. The Company is completely dependent on third-party manufacturers and product suppliers for research and commercial activities. In particular, the Company relies on a limited number of manufacturers and relies on them to purchase from third-party suppliers the materials necessary to produce its product candidates for its clinical trials and for commercial supply. These programs would be adversely affected by a significant interruption in the supply of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Three individual customers accounted for 44%, 25% and 15% for a total 84% of product revenues for the year ended 2019, and two individual customers accounted for 49% and 32% for a total of 81% for the year ended December 31, 2018. Four individual customers accounted for 42%, 11%, 20%, and 20% for a total of 93% of accounts receivable from product sales for the year ended December 31, 2019, and two individual customers accounted for 52% and 30% for a total of 82% for the year ended December 31, 2018. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of product revenue or accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ equity that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders. The Company’s only element of other comprehensive income (loss) in all periods presented was unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or in the Company’s tax returns. Deferred taxes are determined based on the differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates in effect for the year in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent it believes, based upon the weight of available evidence, that it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established through a charge to income tax expense. Potential recovery of deferred tax assets is evaluated by estimating the future taxable profits expected and considering prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements by applying a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination by the taxing authorities. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves, or unrecognized tax benefits, that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell 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 at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable: • Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 consists primarily of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices, such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities. • Level 2 — Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices) such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, 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 determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts payable and accrued expenses, its term loan and 2024 Convertible Notes (Note 10). The estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, with the exception of the 2024 Convertible Notes, approximates their carrying values. The fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes, which differs from their carrying value, is influenced by interest rates, stock price and stock price volatility and is determined by prices for the 2024 Convertible Notes observed in market trading. The market for trading of the 2024 Convertible Notes is not considered to be an active market and therefore the estimate of fair value is based on Level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes, face value of $201.3 million, was $215.7 million at December 31, 2019. Net Loss Per Share The Company follows the two-class method when computing net loss per share as the Company has issued shares that meet the definition of participating securities. The two-class method determines net loss per share for each class of common and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net loss attributable to common stockholders to reallocate undistributed earnings based on the potential impact of dilutive securities, including the assumed conversion of our 2024 Convertible Notes, outstanding stock options and unvested restricted common stock, except where the result would be anti-dilutive. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares assuming the dilutive effect of the conversion of |

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities | 4. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities The following tables present information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 and indicate the level of the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair value: Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2019 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents $ — $ 69,733 $ — $ 69,733 Marketable securities — 54,407 — 54,407 $ — $ 124,140 $ — $ 124,140 Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2018 (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents $ — $ 57,739 $ — $ 57,739 Marketable securities — 171,555 — 171,555 $ — $ 229,294 $ — $ 229,294 As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company’s cash equivalents that are invested in money market funds and overnight repurchase contracts are valued based on Level 2 inputs. The Company measures the fair value of marketable securities using Level 2 inputs and primarily relies on quoted prices in active markets for similar marketable securities. Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums are recorded in other income. The Company had a term loan outstanding under its 2015 credit facility with MidCap Financial Funding XIII Trust and Silicon Valley Bank (the “2015 term loan”). On August 2, 2019, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank as agent, MidCap Financial Trust, and Flexpoint MCLS Holdings, LLC (collectively, the “Lenders”), providing for a term loan of $40.0 million (the “2019 term loan”). The Company concurrently borrowed the $40.0 million term loan and used $7.7 million of the proceeds to repay the remaining amount owed on the 2015 term loan. The amount outstanding on the 2019 term loan is reported at its carrying value in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2019. The Company determined the fair value of the 2019 term loan using an income approach that utilizes a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for debt issuances with similar remaining years to maturity, adjusted for credit risk. The 2019 term loan was valued using Level 2 inputs as of December 31, 2019. On May 2, 2017 the Company issued 3.375% convertible senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Convertible Notes”) with embedded conversion features. The Company estimated the fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes using a discounted cash flow approach to derive the value of a debt instrument using the expected cash flows and the estimated yield related to the convertible notes. The significant assumptions used in estimating the expected cash flows were: the estimated market yield based on an implied yield and credit quality analysis of a term loan with similar attributes, and the average implied volatility of the Company’s traded and quoted options available as of May 2, 2017. The Company recorded approximately $136.7 million as the fair value of the liability on May 2, 2017, with a corresponding amount recorded as a discount on the initial issuance of the 2024 Convertible Notes of approximately $ 64.5 million. The debt discount was recorded to equity and is being amortized to the debt liability over the life of the 2024 Convertible Notes using the effective interest method. The fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes, which differs from their carrying value, is influenced by interest rates, stock price and stock price volatility and is determined by prices for the 2024 Convertible Notes observed in market trading. The market for trading of the 2024 Convertible Notes is not considered to be an active market and therefore the estimate of fair value is based on Level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes, face value of $201.3 million, was $215.7 million at December 31, 2019. |

Debt | 10. Debt Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement Term Loan On August 4, 2015, the Company entered into a credit and security agreement with MidCap Financial Trust, as agent, and MidCap Financial Funding XIII Trust and Silicon Valley Bank, as lenders, to borrow up to $30.0 million in term loans. In August 2019 the Company terminated the credit and security agreement and paid off the remaining outstanding balance of principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the 2015 term loan, as well as the $2.7 million final payment. As a result, the Company recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $0.4 million primarily related to the write-off of the unamortized portion of the final payment and unamortized debt issuance costs, which have been recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively, on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019. On August 2, 2019, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit and security agreement (the “amended and restated credit and security agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank as agent, MidCap Financial Trust, Flexpoint MCLS Holdings, LLC, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), providing for a term loan of $40.0 million and a revolving credit facility of up to $20.0 million, both of which mature on January 1, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company concurrently borrowed the $40.0 million term loan and used $7.7 million of the proceeds to repay the remaining amount owed on the 2015 term loan. The revolving credit facility became available to us beginning January 1, 2020, and . The Company granted the Lenders a security interest in substantially all of its personal property, rights and assets, other than intellectual property, to secure the payment of all amounts owed under the amended and restated credit and security agreement. The Company agreed not to encumber any of its intellectual property without the Lender’s prior written consent. The amended and restated credit and security agreement contains certain representations, warranties, and covenants of the Company, including a minimum revenue covenant that will be in effect at any time the Company’s liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents held with Silicon Valley Bank) is below $80.0 million. The revenue covenant is set annually and is based on the greater of a conservative percentage of that year’s approved forecast and modest growth over the trailing twelve months of actual . Borrowings under the 2019 term loan accrue interest monthly at a floating interest rate equal to the greater of the prime rate plus 1.5% or 6.5% per annum. Following an interest-only period of 18 months, principal is due in 36 equal monthly installments commencing February 1, 2021 and ending on the Maturity Date. Upon the Maturity Date, the Company will be obligated to pay a final payment equal to 4.75 % of the total principal amounts borrowed under the facility. The final payment amount is being accreted to the carrying value of the debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. As of December 31, 2019 , the carrying value of the term loan was approximately $ million, all of which is presented as long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 . The Company may prepay the term loan at any time by paying the outstanding principle balance, a final payment equal to 4.75% of the term loan amount, all accrued interest and a prepayment fee of 3% of the outstanding term loan amount if repaid in the first year, 2% of the outstanding term loan amount if repaid in the second year, and 1% of the outstanding term loan amount if repaid in the third year of the loan; no prepayment fee is required thereafter. Revolving Credit Facility Borrowings under the revolving credit facility accrue interest monthly at a floating interest rate equal to the greater of the prime rate or 5.50% per annum. In addition to paying interest on any amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility, the Company owes an unused revolving line facility fee equal to 0.25% per annum of the average unused portion of the revolving line. multiplied by the difference between the total amount available to be borrowed (the “Revolver Commitment Amount”) of $20.0 million and the greater of the average outstanding revolver balance and 25% of the Commitment Amount. The revolving credit facility and any related fees or interest payments was made available to the Company beginning January 1, 2020, after certain conditions imposed by the Lenders, were met, including an initial borrowing limitation of up to $10.0 million until the Lenders completed an audit of certain collateral accounts. Beginning on January 1, 2020, if the interest payment on the revolving credit facility is less than the amount of interest that would have been payable had the Company borrowed 25% of the Revolver Commitment Amount, then the Company will be required to pay the difference. The Company may retire the revolving credit facility early, at any time, by paying the outstanding principal balance, all accrued interest and a termination fee equal to 2% of the Revolving Commitment Amount if repaid in the first year, and 1% of the Revolving Commitment Amount if repaid in the second year; with no termination fee thereafter. As of December 31, 2019, annual principal and interest payments due under the 2019 term loan are as follows: Year Aggregate Minimum Payments (in thousands) 2020 2,736 2021 14,611 2022 14,816 2023 13,903 2024 3,018 Total $ 49,084 Less interest (7,182 ) Less unamortized portion of final payment (1,726 ) Total $ 40,176 2024 Convertible Notes On May 2, 2017 the Company issued an aggregate of $201.3 million principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes. The 2024 Convertible Notes have a maturity date of May 1, 2024, are unsecured and accrue interest at a rate of 3.375% per annum, payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning November 1, 2017. The Company received $ 194.8 million in proceeds for the sale of the 2024 Convertible Notes, after deducting fees and expenses of $ 6.5 million. Upon conversion of the 2024 Convertible Notes, at the election of each holder of a 2024 Convertible Note (the “Holder”), the note will be convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election (subject to certain limitations in the 2015 term loan), at a conversion rate of approximately 37.3413 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes, which corresponds to an initial conversion price of approximately $26.78 per share of the Company’s common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, fundamental change events and certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the notes. In addition, if the Company delivers a notice of redemption, the Company will increase, in certain circumstances, the conversion rate for a Holder who elects to convert its notes in connection with such a corporate event or notice of redemption, as the case may be. At any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding February 1, 2024, Holders may convert all, or any portion, of the 2024 Convertible Notes at their option only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2017 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the redemption date; and (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after February 1, 2024, until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, Holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. The Company may redeem, for cash, all or any portion of the 2024 Convertible Notes, at its option, on or after May 6, 2020 if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive day trading period, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, subject to the Holders’ right to convert as described above. The 2024 Convertible Notes are considered convertible debt with a cash conversion feature. Per ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company has separated the convertible debt into liability and equity components based on the fair value of a similar debt instrument excluding the embedded conversion option. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The allocation was performed in a manner that reflected our non-convertible debt borrowing rate for similar debt. The equity component of the 2024 Convertible Notes was recognized as a debt discount and represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Convertible Notes and the fair value of the liability of the 2024 Convertible Notes on their respective dates of issuance. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over seven years. The equity component is not re-measured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. The liability component of $136.7 million was recorded as long-term debt at May 2, 2017 with the remaining equity component of $64.5 million recorded as additional paid-in capital. In connection with the issuance of the 2024 Convertible Notes, the Company incurred approximately $6.5 million of debt issuance costs, which primarily consisted of underwriting, legal and other professional fees, and allocated these costs to the liability and equity components based on the allocation of the proceeds. Of the total debt issuance costs, $ 4.4 million were allocated to the liability component and are recorded as a reduction of the 2024 Convertible Notes in our consolidated balance sheets. The remaining $ 2.1 million was allocated to the equity component and is recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. Debt discount and issuance rate year ended December 31, 2019 $14.7 The table below summarizes the carrying value of the 2024 Convertible Notes as of December 31, 2019: ( in thousands Gross proceeds $ 201,250 Portion of proceeds allocated to equity component (additional paid-in capital) (64,541 ) Debt issuance costs (6,470 ) Portion of issuance costs allocated to equity component (additional paid-in capital) 2,075 Amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs 21,099 Carrying value 2024 Convertible Notes $ 153,413 |

Stock Plans | 12. Stock Plans 2013 Equity Incentive Plan On January 27, 2014, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which became effective on February 11, 2014, the date of execution of the underwriting agreement pursuant to which the Company’s common stock was priced for its initial public offering. Prior to the effective date of the 2013 Plan, the Company granted stock-based awards pursuant to the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan), which had similar features to the 2013 Plan. The 2013 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (“ISOs”), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance-based stock awards, and other forms of equity compensation. Initially, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued pursuant to stock awards under the 2013 Plan was 2,337,616, which is the sum of (i) 1,230,012 shares, plus (ii) the number of shares remaining available for grant under the 2009 Plan, plus (iii) any shares subject to outstanding stock options or other stock awards that would have otherwise returned to the 2009 Plan (such as upon the expiration or termination of a stock award prior to vesting). Additionally, the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2013 Plan automatically increase s on January 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2015 and continuing through and including January 1, 2023, by 4 % of the total number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year, or a lesser number of shares determined by the board of directors. The maximum number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of ISOs under the 2013 Plan is 4,684,989 shares. On September 11, 2017, the Company’s compensation committee approved an amendment to the 2013 Plan to reserve an additional 1,500,000 of the Company’s common stock to be used exclusively for grants of inducement awards to individuals who were not previously employees or non-employee directors of the Company (or following a bona fide period of non-employment with the Company). As of December 31, 2019, 3,073,933 shares were available for future issuance under the 2013 Plan. As of December 31, 2019, there were 236,187 options outstanding under the 2009 Plan and 4,531,754 options outstanding under the 2013 Plan, including 839,560 shares underlying outstanding stock options granted as inducement awards under the 2013 Plan. Employee Stock Purchase Plan On January 27, 2014, the Company’s stockholders approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. A total of 209,102 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under this plan. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan became effective on February 11, 2014, the date of execution of the underwriting agreement pursuant to which the Company’s common stock was priced for its initial public offering. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, 184,860 and 138,405 shares, respectively, were purchased by employees under the plan. Additionally, the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan automatically increases on January 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2015 and continuing through and including January 1, 2023, by 1% of the total number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year, or a lesser number of shares determined by the board of directors. |

Stock-Based Compensation | 13. Stock-Based Compensation Stock Options During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, the Company granted stock options for the purchase of 1,099,450, 1,127,263, and 1,448,100 shares of common stock, respectively, to certain employees, two non-employees and directors. The vesting conditions for most of these awards are time-based, and the awards vest 25% after one year and monthly thereafter for the next 36 months, except for annual option grants to non-employee directors of the Company whose initial grants vest 25% after one year and monthly thereafter for the next 24 months and whose annual grants vest in equal monthly installments during the 12-month period following the grant date, pursuant to the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy. Options granted have a maximum term of up to 10 years. Stock Option Valuation The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Prior to February 2014, the Company was privately held with a limited operating history and accordingly it utilized data from representative peer companies to estimate expected stock price volatility from its inception to its initial public offering. The Company selected peer companies from the biopharmaceutical industry with similar characteristics as the Company, including stage of product development, market capitalization and therapeutic focus. Since its initial public offering in February 2014, the Company has continued to use volatility data from a representative peer group to estimate expected stock price volatility and expects to continue to do so until such time as it has adequate historical data regarding the volatility of its own traded stock price for a period of time that is commensurate with the expected term (in years) of the Company’s stock options. Starting in 2020, we will use our own volatility as it will have been six years since our IPO. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain vanilla” options. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employees is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The relevant data used to determine the value of the stock option grants for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 is as follows: December 31, 2019 2018 2017 Risk-free interest rates 1.42% - 2.67% 2.67% - 3.06% 1.97% - 2.29% Expected dividend yield 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% Expected term (in years) 6.0 6.0 6.0 Expected volatility 66.2% - 69.5% 69.8% - 75.3% 69.9% - 72.8% The following table summarizes stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2019: (In thousands, except per share amounts) Shares Under Weighted Exercise Outstanding as of December 31, 2018 4,435 $ 19.21 Granted 1,099 $ 13.53 Exercised (154 ) $ 12.09 Cancelled (605 ) $ 20.31 Outstanding as of December 31, 2019 4,775 $ 17.99 Options vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2019 4,775 $ 17.99 Options exercisable at December 31, 2019 2,973 $ 18.34 The aggregate intrinsic value of options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those options that had exercise prices lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock. A total of 153,754, 165,684, and 308,011 options were exercised during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $0.9 million, $2.3 million, and $2.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. At December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, the Company had options for the purchase of 4,774,691, 4,435,056, and 3,799,965 shares of common stock outstanding, with a weighted average remaining contractual term of 6.9, 7.6, and 8.0 years, respectively, and with a weighted average exercise price of $17.99, $19.21, and $17.75 per share, respectively. At December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 there were options for the purchase of 2,973,000, 2,368,955, and 1,688,652 shares of common stock exercisable under these stock option awards, with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 6.1, 6.6, and 6.8 years, respectively, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $9.8 million, $2.6 million, and $17.0 million, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 was $8.55, $15.12, and $14.33, respectively. Restricted Stock Units On January 4, 2016, the Company granted 189,300 restricted stock units, (“RSUs”), with performance and time-based vesting conditions to certain executives. These RSUs began vesting, and the underlying shares of common stock became deliverable, beginning when ZILRETTA was approved (the “Milestone”). The number of shares eligible for vesting varied based on the timing of achieving the Milestone. As a result of the Milestone being achieved on October 6, 2017, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock earned under these awards was 122,800, subject to ongoing employment with the Company for a period of two years. The 122,800 shares had an approximate value of $2.2 million as of the original grant date of which $1.6 million was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2017 upon achieving the Milestone and the remaining $0.6 million will be recognized over a period of two years. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company awarded 873,481 RSUs to employees at an average grant date fair value of $14.51 per share. The RSUs vest in four substantially equal installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the vesting commencement date, subject to the employee’s continued employment with, or services to, the Company on each vesting date. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis.

Commitments and Contingencies | 1 4 . Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases Burlington Lease In May 2013, the Company entered into a lease for office space in Burlington, Massachusetts (the “Lease”). The term of the Lease was for 42-months with minimum monthly lease payments beginning at $17,588 per month and escalating over the term of the Lease. In July 2015, the Company amended the Lease to add approximately 4,700 square feet of additional office space, with the option to lease an additional 5,400 square feet in the same building in Burlington, Massachusetts. In addition, at the time, the Company leased approximately 6,700 square feet of temporary space for use prior to delivery of the additional space. This amendment also extended the term of the Lease through October 31, 2019. On September 30, 2015, the Company exercised its option for the additional 5,400 square feet of office space. On September 21, 2016, the Company entered into another amendment to extend the Lease for the 6,700 square feet of temporary space until October 31, 2017. On April 7, 2017, the Company further amended the Lease to extend the term to October 31, 2023 on the then-existing office space, including the temporary space, consisting of approximately 28,600 square feet of office space in Burlington, Massachusetts. From November 2016 through October 2017, the Company’s lease payment for this space was approximately $80,000 per month. Also, as part of this amendment to the Lease, the Company leased an additional 1,471 square feet of office space beginning in 2018. The lease payment for the 1,471 square feet of office space is approximately $4,100 per month. On October 6, 2017, the Company exercised its option for an additional 6,450 square feet of space, and the term for the space commenced in April 2018. The Company had approximately 36,500 square feet of office space in Burlington, Massachusetts under a lease term expiring on October 31, 2023. Starting in December 2017, the Company’s minimum monthly lease payment is approximately $87,000 and it increases over the life of the amended Lease. In addition to the base rent for the office space, which increases over the term of the amended Lease, the Company is responsible for its share of operating expenses and real estate taxes. In June 2019, the Company amended the Lease to add approximately 5,330 square feet of additional office space and extend the term of the Lease through April 30, 2025 (the “Amended Lease”). As a result of the Amended Lease, the total rentable floor area is 41,873 square feet. Starting in August 2019, the Company’s minimum monthly lease payment is approximately $108,000. which increases over the term of the Amended Lease. In addition to the base rent for the office space, the Company is responsible for its share of operating expenses and real estate taxes. The lease commencement date for the additional space, which represents the date the Company first had access to the space, was July 1, 2019. The Company accounted for the Amended Lease as a lease modification that is a separate contract from the original lease and recorded an incremental right-of-use asset and lease liability of $2.5 million, which represents the present value of the lease payments relating to the new space, as well as the lease payments relating to the 18-month extension of the existing space, as of the modification date, discounted at 6.8%. The straight-line lease cost for the Amended Lease (including the expense relating to the original Lease) amounted to $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively, and was included in operating expenses. As of December 31, 2019, the remaining lease term on the Amended Lease was 5.3 years, which includes the 18-month extension resulting from the amendment signed in June 2019. Woburn Lease In February 2017, the Company entered into a five-year Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for the Lease on January 1, 2019, by calculating the present value of lease payments, discounted at 8.4%, the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate, over the 3.2-year remaining term. The Woburn lease includes an option to extend the term of the lease for two years. Since the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 using the Comparatives under 840 approach, it did not reassess the determination of its operating leases as leases, and therefore no options to extend the lease were included in the calculation of the lease liability as of December 31, 2019. The straight-line lease cost for the Woburn lease amounted to $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively, and was included in operating expenses. As of December 31, 2019, the remaining lease term on the Woburn lease was 2.2 years. The Company incurred operating lease costs of $2.0 million, $1.1 million, and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Manufacturing and Supply Agreement with Patheon U.K. Limited In July 2015, the Company and Patheon U.K. Limited (“Patheon”) entered into a Manufacturing and Supply Agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) and Technical Transfer and Service Agreement (the “Technical Transfer Agreement”) for the manufacture of ZILRETTA. Patheon agreed in the Technical Transfer Agreement to undertake certain transfer activities and construction services needed to prepare Patheon’s United Kingdom facility for the commercial manufacture of ZILRETTA in dedicated manufacturing suites. The Company provided Patheon with certain equipment and materials necessary to manufacture ZILRETTA and pays Patheon a monthly fee for such activities and reimburses Patheon for certain material, equipment and miscellaneous expenses and additional services. The initial term of the Manufacturing Agreement is 10 years from approval by the FDA of the Patheon manufacturing suites for ZILRETTA, or until October 6, 2027. The Company pays a monthly base fee to Patheon for the operation of the manufacturing suites and a per product fee for each vial based upon a forecast of commercial demand. The Company also reimburses Patheon for purchases of materials and equipment made on its behalf, certain nominal expenses and additional services. The Manufacturing Agreement will remain in full effect unless and until it expires or is terminated. Upon termination of the Manufacturing Agreement (other than termination by Flexion in the event that Patheon does not meet the construction and manufacturing milestones or for a breach by Patheon), Flexion will be obligated to pay for the costs incurred by Patheon associated with the removal of our manufacturing equipment and for Patheon’s termination costs up to a capped amount. The Manufacturing Agreement with Patheon contains an operating lease for the use of dedicated manufacturing suites. With the adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for the operating lease. In June 2019, the Company and Patheon amended the Manufacturing Agreement and the Technical Transfer Agreement. The amendment primarily modifies the compensation structure, which is comprised of base fees and per product fees the Company pays to Patheon and does not result in any additional rights of use. The Company accounted for the amendment as a lease modification that is not a separate contract from the original lease. As part of the modification, the Company reassessed whether the contract is or contains a lease and determined that there is an operating lease component for the use of dedicated manufacturing suites. The remainder of the consideration is allocated to the service component. The Company also reassessed the lease liability by calculating the present value of the remaining lease payments as of the modification date, discounted at 6.1%. The modification resulted in an increase to each of the lease liability and right of use asset of $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2019, the remaining lease term on the Patheon lease was 7.8 years. The straight-line lease cost amounted to $204 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in inventory as part of manufacturing overhead. The components of lease expense and related cash flows were as follows: (In thousands) Operating lease cost Year ended December 31, 2019 Operating lease cost included in operating expenses $ 1,765 Operating lease cost included in inventory 204 Total operating lease cost 1,969 Operating cash flows from operating leases 2,363 Maturities of lease liability due under these lease agreements as of December 31, 2019 were as follows: Year Aggregate Minimum Payments (in thousands) 2020 1,987 2021 2,035 2022 1,879 2023 1,888 2024 1,929 Thereafter 1,221 Present value imputed interest (2,531 ) Present value of lease payments $ 8,408 As of December 31, 2018, future minimum lease payments under the Company’s lease obligations under ASC 840 were as follows: Year Aggregate Minimum Payments (in thousands) 2019 1,491 2020 1,533 2021 1,576 2022 1,447 2023 1,203 Total $ 7,250 As of December 31, 2018, future minimum payments under the Company’s agreed obligations under the Manufacturing Agreement with Patheon are as follows: Year Aggregate Minimum Payments (in thousands) 2019 8,027 2020 8,027 2021 8,027 2022 8,027 2023 8,027 2024 and thereafter 30,102 Total $ 70,237 Other Commitments and Contingencies Evonik Supply Agreement In November 2016, the Company entered into a Supply Agreement with Evonik Corporation (“Evonik”) for the purchase of PLGA which is used in the manufacturing of potential clinical and commercial supply of ZILRETTA. Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, Flexion is obligated to submit rolling monthly forecasts to Evonik for PLGA supply, a portion of which will constitute binding orders. In addition, Flexion agreed to certain minimum purchase requirements and which do not apply (i) during periods in which Evonik is in material breach of the Supply Agreement or is unable to perform its obligations due to a force majeure event, (ii) with respect to orders that Evonik is unable to supply in excess of binding orders, (iii) for orders Evonik is unable to timely deliver or does not deliver conforming product and provides a credit for such order, or (iv) during an uncured material quality failure by Evonik. Flexion agreed to purchase PLGA batches at a specified price per gram in U.S. dollars, subject to adjustment from time to time, including due to changes in price indices and in the event the initial term of the Supply Agreement is extended. The total term of the agreement is five years. Upon termination of the Supply Agreement (other than termination due to the expiration of the term of the agreement or due to bankruptcy of either Evonik or Flexion), Flexion is obligated to pay the costs associated with the binding supply forecast provided to Evonik. The Supply Agreement will renew for two successive two-year Southwest Research Institute License Agreement On July 25, 2014, the Company entered into an exclusive worldwide license agreement with Southwest Research Institute (“SwRI”) with respect to the use of SwRI’s proprietary microsphere manufacturing technologies for certain steroids formulated with PLGA, including ZILRETTA. Under the agreement, the Company paid an upfront fee of $120,000 to SwRI. In February 2017, Flexion executed an agreement with SwRI to transfer manufacturing equipment to SwRI in consideration for SwRI deeming the additional milestone payment to have been fully paid by Flexion. FX201 Related Agreement In December 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement with GeneQuine to acquire the global rights to FX201. As part of the asset purchase transaction with GeneQuine, we made an upfront payment to GeneQuine of $2.0 million. In 2018, we paid GeneQuine $750,000 for the milestone of initiating a GLP toxicology study of FX201. In addition, we paid GeneQuine a $750,000 payment in November 2019 following the FDA acceptance of the IND application for FX201. This milestone was recognized as research and development expense in the fourth quarter of 2019. The next milestone of $2.5 million was achieved in March 2020 when the first patient was treated in the Phase 1 clinical trial. We may also be required to make additional milestone payments during the development of FX201, including up to $4.5 million through the Phase 2 PoC, clinical trial and, following successful PoC, up to an additional $51.5 million in development and global regulatory approval milestone payments. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, as it did not qualify as a business combination. The upfront fee was attributed to the intellectual property acquired and recognized as research and development expense in December 2017 as the FX201 rights had not been commercially approved and have no alternative future use. The milestone payment for the GLP toxicology study was also recorded to research and development expense in the fourth quarter of 2018. Future milestone payments earned prior to regulatory approval of FX201 would be recognized as research and development expense in the period when the milestone events become probable of being achieved. Future milestones earned upon regulatory approval would be recognized as an intangible asset and amortized to expense over its estimated life. As part of the transaction with GeneQuine, we became the direct licensee of certain underlying Baylor College of Medicine (Baylor) patents and other proprietary rights related to FX201 for human applications. The Baylor license agreement grants us an exclusive, royalty-bearing, world-wide right and license (with a right to sublicense) for human applications under its patent and other proprietary rights directly related to FX201, with a similar non-exclusive license to certain Baylor intellectual property rights that are not specific to FX201. The license agreement with Baylor includes a low single-digit royalty on net sales of FX201 and requires us to use reasonable efforts to develop FX201 according to timelines set out in the license agreement. In December 2017, we also entered into a Master Production Services Agreement with SAFC Carlsbad, Inc., a part of MilliporeSigma, for the manufacturing of preclinical and initial clinical supplies of FX201. FX301 Related Agreements In September 2019, the Company acquired from Xenon, the global rights to develop and commercialize Xenon’s NaV1.7 inhibitor, funapide,formulated for extended release with a novel, Flexion proprietary thermosensitive hydrogel under the Company’s preclinical program known as FX301. As part of the asset purchase transaction with Xenon, the Company made an upfront payment to Xenon of $3.0 million. The Company may also be required to make additional milestone payments during the development of FX301, including up to $9.0 million through initiation of a Phase 2 proof of concept (PoC) clinical trial and, following successful PoC, up to $40.8 million in development and global regulatory approval milestone payments and up to an additional $75.0 million in sales-related milestone payments. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, as it did not qualify as a business combination. The upfront fee was attributed to the intellectual property acquired and recognized as research and development expense in September 2019 as the FX301 product candidate had not been commercially approved and had no alternative future use. Future milestone payments earned prior to regulatory approval of FX301 will be recognized as research and development expense in the period when the milestone events become probable of being achieved. Future milestones earned subsequent to regulatory approval will be recognized as an intangible asset and amortized to expense over the estimated life of FX301. As of December 31, 2019, no milestones under the arrangement had been achieved. As part of the transaction, the Company became the direct licensee of certain underlying Xenon patents and other proprietary rights related to funapide for human applications. The Xenon agreement grants the Company an exclusive, royalty-bearing, world-wide right and license (with a right to sublicense) for human applications under its patents directly related to funapide, with a similar royalty-free license to other Xenon proprietary rights directly related to funapide. The agreement with Xenon includes a tiered royalty ranging from mid-single digits to low double digits that is based on aggregate annual net sales of FX301 and requires the Company to use reasonable efforts to develop FX301 according to timelines set out in the agreement. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | 16. Income Taxes The Company has generated losses since inception. Accordingly, there is no US tax provision or benefit for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2019 2018 2017 Federal statutory income tax rate 21.0 % 21.0 % 34.0 % State taxes, net of federal benefit (0.2 ) 8.0 3.0 Federal and state research and development tax credits 1.0 1.0 0.9 Change in deferred tax asset valuation allowance (22.2 ) (27.4 ) (11.6 ) Tax rate change 1.7 (1.9 ) (25.1 ) Other (1.3 ) (0.7 ) (1.2 ) Effective income tax rate — % — % — % The Company’s net deferred tax assets consisted of the following: December 31, 2019 2018 Net operating loss carryforwards $ 101,356 $ 76,723 Research and development tax credit carryforwards 12,096 9,965 Accruals and other temporary differences 10,873 7,808 Debt discount (11,156 ) (14,165 ) Right of use asset (2,042 ) — Capitalized research and development expenses, net 43,442 41,048 Total deferred tax assets 154,569 121,379 Valuation allowance (154,569 ) (121,379 ) Net deferred tax asset $ — $ — As of December 31, 2019, the Company had federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $404.3 million and $300.0 million, respectively, which begin to expire in 2029 for federal purposes and in 2030 for state purposes. Approximately $214.8 million of the federal NOLs have an indefinite carryforward. In addition, the Company had federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $8.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively, available to reduce future tax liabilities, which begin to expire in 2029 for federal purposes and 2025 for state purposes. Management of the Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of NOL carryforwards and capitalized research and development expenses. Management has considered the Company’s history of cumulative net losses incurred since inception and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets. As a result, a full valuation allowance has been established at December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 382”), contains rules that limit the ability of a company that undergoes an ownership change to utilize its NOLs, and tax credits existing as of the date of such ownership change. Under the rules, such an ownership change is generally any change in ownership of more than 50% of a company’s stock within a rolling three-year period. The rules generally operate by focusing on changes in ownership among stockholders considered by the rules as owning, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the stock of a company and any change in ownership arising from new issuances of stock by the company. The Company has experienced multiple ownership changes since its inception, however, based on the annual limitations calculated at each ownership change date, substantially all NOL carryforwards will be available to offset future taxable income. Approximately $0.3 million of NOLs will expire unused. Future ownership changes as defined by Section 382 may further limit the amount of NOL carryforwards that could be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. Changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2019 2018 2017 Valuation allowance as of beginning of year $ (121,379 ) $ (74,842 ) $ (83,434 ) Decreases recorded as benefit to income tax provision 2,046 1,913 36,606 Decreases recorded as benefit to equity 0 0 24,537 Increases recorded to income tax provision (35,236 ) (48,450 ) (52,551 ) Valuation allowance as of end of year $ (154,569 ) $ (121,379 ) $ (74,842 ) In each reporting period, the Company considers whether a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals of litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the tax amount recognized in the financial statements is reduced by the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon the ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority. No liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits were recorded as of as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. The Company files tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal and state jurisdictions, where applicable. There are currently no pending tax examinations. The Company’s tax years are still open under statute from 2013 to the present. Earlier years may be examined to the extent that tax credit or NOL carryforwards are used in future periods. The resolution of tax matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for financial information, including the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include estimates related to revenue and accrued expenses related to preclinical and clinical development costs. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known by the Company’s management. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition On October 6, 2017, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, (the FDA), approved ZILRETTA. The Company entered into a limited number of arrangements with specialty distributors and a specialty pharmacy in the U.S. to distribute ZILRETTA. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract with a customer under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract , determines those that are performance obligations, and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Product Revenue, Net — The Company primarily sells ZILRETTA to specialty distributors and a specialty pharmacy, who then subsequently resell ZILRETTA to physicians, clinics and certain medical centers or hospitals. The Company also contracts directly with healthcare providers and intermediaries such as Group Purchasing Organizations (“GPOs”). In addition, the Company enters into arrangements with government payers that provide for government mandated rebates and chargebacks with respect to the purchase of ZILRETTA. The Company recognizes revenue on product sales when the customer obtains control of the Company's product, which occurs at a point in time (upon delivery to the customer). The Company has determined that the delivery of ZILRETTA to its customers constitutes a single performance obligation. There are no other promises to deliver goods or services beyond what is specified in each accepted customer order. The Company has assessed the existence of a significant financing component in the agreements with its customers. The trade payment terms with our customers do not exceed one year and therefore the Company has elected to apply the practical expedient and no amount of consideration has been allocated as a financing component. Product revenues are recorded net of applicable reserves for variable consideration, including discounts and allowances. Transaction Price, including Variable Consideration — Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, product returns, government chargebacks, discounts and rebates, and other incentives, such as voluntary patient assistance, and other fee for service amounts that are detailed within contracts between the Company and its customers relating to the Company’s sale of its products. These reserves, as detailed below, are based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and are classified as reductions of accounts receivable (if the amount is payable to the customer) or a current liability (if the amount is payable to a party other than a customer). These estimates take into consideration a range of possible outcomes which are probability-weighted in accordance with the expected value method in Topic 606 for relevant factors such as current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts. The amount of variable consideration which is included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s original estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known. Service Fees and Allowances —The Company compensates its customers and GPOs for sales order management, data, and distribution services. However, the Company has determined such services received to date are not distinct from the Company’s sale of products to the customer and, therefore, these payments have been recorded as a reduction of revenue within the statement of operations and comprehensive loss through December 31, 2019, as well as a reduction to trade receivables, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Product Returns — Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for product that has been purchased from the Company based on the product’s expiration date. The Company estimates the amount of its product sales that may be returned by its customers and records this estimate as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized, as well as within accrued expenses and other current liabilities, net , on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company currently estimates product return liabilities using available industry data and its own sales information, including its visibility into the inventory remaining in the distribution channel. The Company has received an immaterial amount of returns to date and believes that returns of ZILRETTA will be minimal. Chargebacks — Chargebacks for fees and discounts to qualified government healthcare providers represent the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products to qualified VA hospitals and 340b entities at prices lower than the list prices charged to customers who directly purchase the product from the Company. The 340b Drug Discount Program is a US federal government program created in 1992 that requires drug manufacturers to provide outpatient drugs to eligible health care organizations and covered entities at significantly reduced prices. Customers charge the Company for the difference between what they pay for the product and the statutory selling price to the qualified government entity. These reserves are established in the same period that the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and trade receivables, net. Chargeback amounts are generally determined at the time of resale to the qualified government healthcare provider by customers, and the Company generally issues credits for such amounts within a few weeks of the Customer’s notification to the Company of the resale. Reserves for chargebacks consist of credits that the Company expects to issue for units that remain in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expects will be sold to qualified healthcare providers, and chargebacks that customers have claimed, but for which the Company has not yet issued a credit. Government Rebates — The Company is subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and Medicare. These reserves are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. For Medicare, the Company also estimates the number of patients in the prescription drug coverage gap for whom the Company will owe an additional liability under the Medicare Part D program. The Company anticipates its exposure to utilization from the Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program to be immaterial. For Medicaid programs, the Company estimates the portion of sales attributed to Medicaid patients and records a liability for the rebates to be paid to the respective state Medicaid programs. The Company’s liability for these rebates consists of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that have not been paid or for which an invoice has not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that will be made for product that has been recognized as revenue, but which remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. Purchaser/Provider Discounts and Rebates —Beginning in the third quarter of 2019, the Company began offering rebates to eligible purchasers and healthcare providers that are variable based on the volume of product purchased. Rebates are based on actual purchase levels during the rebate purchase period. The Company estimates these rebates and records such estimate in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. Other Incentives — Other incentives which the Company offers include voluntary patient assistance programs, such as the co-pay assistance program, which are intended to provide financial assistance to qualified commercially-insured patients with prescription drug co-payments required by payers. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance is based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expects to receive associated with product that has been recognized as revenue, but remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. The adjustments are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which is included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. To date, the Company’s only source of product revenue has been from the U.S. sales of ZILRETTA, which it began shipping to customers in October 2017. The following table summarizes activity in each of the product revenue allowance and reserve categories for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017: (In thousands) Service Fees, Allowances and Chargebacks Government Rebates and Other Incentives Product Returns Purchaser/Provider Discounts and Rebates Total Balance as of January 1, 2017 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — Provision related to sales in the current year 100 15 2 — 117 Credit or payments made during the period (40 ) — — — (40 ) Balance as of December 31, 2017 60 15 2 — 77 Provision related to sales in the current year 1,688 502 124 — 2,314 Credit or payments made during the period (1,147 ) (26 ) (1 ) — (1,174 ) Balance as of December 31, 2018 601 491 125 — 1,217 Provision related to sales in the current year 5,527 261 334 2,685 8,807 Credit or payments made during the period (4,281 ) (375 ) (57 ) (1,029 ) (5,742 ) Adjustments related to prior period sales — (129 ) — — (129 ) Balance as of December 31, 2019 $ 1,847 $ 248 $ 402 $ 1,656 $ 4,153 |
Inventory | Inventory The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. The Company determines the cost of its inventories, which includes amounts related to materials and manufacturing overhead, on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company performs an assessment of the recoverability of capitalized inventory during each reporting period, and it writes down any excess and obsolete inventories to their estimated realizable value in the period in which the impairment is first identified. Such impairment charges, should they occur, are recorded within cost of sales. The determination of whether inventory costs will be realizable requires estimates by management. If actual market conditions are less favorable than projected by management, additional write-downs of inventory may be required, which would be recorded as a cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with the Company’s products after regulatory approval when, based on management’s judgment, future commercialization is considered probable and the future economic benefit is expected to be realized. Inventory acquired prior to receipt of marketing approval of a product candidate is expensed as research and development expense as incurred. Inventory that can be used in either the production of clinical or commercial product is expensed as research and development expense when selected for use in a clinical manufacturing campaign. Inventory produced that will be used in promotional marketing campaigns is expensed to selling, general and administrative expense when it is selected for use in a marketing program. |
Consolidation | Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Flexion Therapeutics Securities Corporation. The Company has eliminated all intercompany transactions for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. In addition, Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. is registered to do business in the United Kingdom through its branch office located in Swindon, United Kingdom. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are recorded net of customer allowances for distribution fees and chargebacks, and doubtful accounts. Allowances for distribution fees and chargebacks are based on contractual terms. The Company estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts based on existing contractual payment terms, actual payment patterns of its customers and individual customer circumstances. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts was not required. No accounts were written off during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company currently invests available cash in money market funds of a major financial institution, corporate bonds, government obligations and commercial paper. |
Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities Marketable securities consist of investments with original maturities greater than ninety days and less than one year from the balance sheet date. Long-term investments consist of investments with maturities of greater than one year. The Company classifies all of its investments, which consist solely of debt securities, as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis and are included in other income (loss). Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums is recorded in other income. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Estimated Useful Life (Years) Computers, office equipment, and minor computer software 3 Computer software 7 Manufacturing equipment 7-10 Furniture and fixtures 5 Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related asset. Costs of major additions and betterments are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Property and equipment includes construction-in-progress, that is not yet in service. |
Foreign Currencies | Foreign Currencies The Company maintains a bank account designated in British Pounds. All foreign currency payables and cash balances are measured at the applicable exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. All associated gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Factors that the Company considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends, and significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets. If an impairment review is performed to evaluate a long-lived asset for recoverability, the Company compares forecasts of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the long-lived asset to its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss would be based on the excess of the carrying value of the impaired asset over its fair value, determined based on discounted cash flows. |
Debt Issuance Costs, net | Debt Issuance Costs, net As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the carrying value of debt issuance costs was $2.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, and was presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amounts of long-term debt. In addition, $0.6 million, $0.6 million, and $0.4 million, respectively, of debt issuance costs were amortized and recognized as other expense in the statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. |
Research and Development | Research and Development Research and development expenses are comprised of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including salaries and benefits, facilities costs, overhead costs, depreciation, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing costs, contract services and other related costs. Research and development costs are expensed to operations as the related obligation is incurred. As part of the process of preparing its financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its accrued expenses. This process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders, communicating with applicable internal and vendor personnel to identify services that have been performed on the Company’s behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service when the Company has not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of the actual cost. The majority of the Company’s service providers invoice it monthly in arrears for services performed or when contractual milestones are met. The Company makes estimates of its accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in its financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to it at that time. The Company periodically confirms the accuracy of its estimates with the service providers and makes adjustments if necessary. Examples of estimated accrued research and development expenses include fees paid to: • CROs in connection with clinical studies; • investigative sites in connection with clinical studies; • vendors related to product manufacturing, development and distribution of clinical supplies; and • vendors in connection with preclinical development activities. The Company records expenses related to clinical studies and manufacturing development activities based on its estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to contracts with multiple CROs and manufacturing vendors that conduct and manage these activities on the Company’s behalf. The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation, vary from contract to contract, and may result in uneven payment flows. The Company makes estimates of its accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in its financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to it. If timelines or contracts are modified based upon changes in the clinical trial protocol or scope of work to be performed, the Company modifies its estimates of accrued expenses accordingly on a prospective basis. If the Company does not identify costs that it has begun to incur, or if it underestimates or overestimates the level of services performed or the costs of these services, the Company’s actual expenses could differ from its estimates. To date, the Company has not adjusted its estimates at any particular balance sheet date in any material amount. |
Patent Costs | Patent Costs All patent-related costs incurred in connection with filing and prosecuting patent applications are recorded as general and administrative expenses as incurred, as recoverability of such expenditures is uncertain. |
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation | Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures all stock options and other stock based-awards granted to employees at the fair value at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the awards is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The straight-line method of expense recognition is applied to all awards with service-only conditions. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur and does not estimate future forfeitures. As such, previously recognized compensation expense for an award is reversed in the period that the award is forfeited. For stock awards that have a performance condition, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on its assessment of the probability that the performance condition will be achieved, using an accelerated attribution model, over the explicit or implicit service period. As a result of our adoption of “ASU 2018-07”, stock-based awards granted to non-employees are accounted for the same way as awards granted to employees, and such awards will not be re-measured at fair value each reporting period. We adopted this standard prospectively and there was no impact on previously issued financial statements. The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified, or in the case of a non-employee, in the same manner as the award recipient’s service costs are classified. |
Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Suppliers | Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Suppliers Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of commercial paper and corporate bonds. The Company generally invests its cash in money market funds, government and corporate bonds, and commercial paper at one financial institution. The Company does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. The Company is completely dependent on third-party manufacturers and product suppliers for research and commercial activities. In particular, the Company relies on a limited number of manufacturers and relies on them to purchase from third-party suppliers the materials necessary to produce its product candidates for its clinical trials and for commercial supply. These programs would be adversely affected by a significant interruption in the supply of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Three individual customers accounted for 44%, 25% and 15% for a total 84% of product revenues for the year ended 2019, and two individual customers accounted for 49% and 32% for a total of 81% for the year ended December 31, 2018. Four individual customers accounted for 42%, 11%, 20%, and 20% for a total of 93% of accounts receivable from product sales for the year ended December 31, 2019, and two individual customers accounted for 52% and 30% for a total of 82% for the year ended December 31, 2018. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of product revenue or accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. |
Comprehensive Loss | Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ equity that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders. The Company’s only element of other comprehensive income (loss) in all periods presented was unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or in the Company’s tax returns. Deferred taxes are determined based on the differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates in effect for the year in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent it believes, based upon the weight of available evidence, that it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established through a charge to income tax expense. Potential recovery of deferred tax assets is evaluated by estimating the future taxable profits expected and considering prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements by applying a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination by the taxing authorities. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves, or unrecognized tax benefits, that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell 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 at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable: • Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 consists primarily of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices, such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities. • Level 2 — Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices) such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, 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 determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts payable and accrued expenses, its term loan and 2024 Convertible Notes (Note 10). The estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, with the exception of the 2024 Convertible Notes, approximates their carrying values. The fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes, which differs from their carrying value, is influenced by interest rates, stock price and stock price volatility and is determined by prices for the 2024 Convertible Notes observed in market trading. The market for trading of the 2024 Convertible Notes is not considered to be an active market and therefore the estimate of fair value is based on Level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of the 2024 Convertible Notes, face value of $201.3 million, was $215.7 million at December 31, 2019. |
Net Loss Per Share | Net Loss Per Share The Company follows the two-class method when computing net loss per share as the Company has issued shares that meet the definition of participating securities. The two-class method determines net loss per share for each class of common and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net loss attributable to common stockholders to reallocate undistributed earnings based on the potential impact of dilutive securities, including the assumed conversion of our 2024 Convertible Notes, outstanding stock options and unvested restricted common stock, except where the result would be anti-dilutive. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares assuming the dilutive effect of the conversion of the 2024 Convertible Notes, the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting unvested restricted common stock. In the diluted net loss per share calculation, net loss would also be adjusted for the elimination of interest expense on the 2024 Convertible Notes, if the impact was not anti-dilutive. For periods in which the Company has reported net losses, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, since dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive. Potential common shares will always be anti-dilutive for periods in which the Company has reported a net loss. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 . |
Segment Data | Segment Data The Company manages its operations as a single operating segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel, local therapies. All revenues for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were generated in the United States. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Recently Adopted In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU 2016-02, Leases As part of its adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company elected the package of practical expedients which allows it to not reassess (1) whether existing contracts contain leases, (2) the lease classification for existing leases, and (3) whether existing initial direct costs meet the new definition. Consequently, on adoption, the Company recognized lease liabilities of $7.0 million and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets of $6.6 million based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for existing operating leases. These lease liabilities and ROU assets relate to operating leases only, as the Company concluded that it does not have any finance leases. The difference between the lease liability and the ROU assets upon adoption relates to the deferred rent balance that had been recorded prior to adoption. The Company determined that no cumulative adjustment to retained earnings was required. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). The new standard expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Equity-based payments to nonemployees were previously covered under ASC 505-50 and required companies to measure the awards based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued and remeasure the fair value of such awards at each reporting date. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 prospectively and there was no impact on previously issued financial statements. Accounting Standards Recently Issued In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The new standard modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, as part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and the interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019 , and early adoption is permitted. Additionally, the new standard permits an entity to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of the ASU and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. ASU 2018-13 removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company early adopted this portion of the standard as of the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption of the remainder of ASU 2018-13 to have any impact on its consolidated financial statements, as the changes to the disclosures are primarily relevant for companies with Level 3 assets and liabilities, which the Company does not have. |
