Description Of Business [Abstract] | |
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Organization and Description of Business Retrophin, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated as Desert Gateway, Inc. (“Desert Gateway”) in the State of Oklahoma on February 8, 2008. Desert Gateway was originally a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Merchant Data Services, Inc. (“American Merchant”). In a 2008 reorganization of American Merchant, each share of outstanding common stock of American Merchant was converted into one share of Desert Gateway, while all of American Merchant’s operating assets, liabilities and tax attributes (including accumulated losses and net operating losses) carried forward to another subsidiary of American Merchant in a downstream merger with such other subsidiary. Accordingly, American Merchant was not considered a predecessor company of the Desert Gateway for accounting or legal purposes. Following the 2008 reorganization, Desert Gateway re-domiciled to Delaware. Since inception and until Desert Gateway’s merger with Retrophin, Inc., a private company (“Former Retrophin”) in December 2012 (as described below), Desert Gateway had no existing operations, and its sole purpose was to locate and consummate a merger or acquisition with a private entity. Former Retrophin, Inc. was originally organized as a Delaware limited liability company, named Retrophin, LLC, on March 11, 2011 (“Inception”). On September 20, 2012, Retrophin filed a Certificate of Conversion to change its legal form of organization from a limited liability company to a corporation in the State of Delaware. This conversion (as more fully described in Note 15) into a corporation, which preceded the Merger on December 12, 2012, resulted in no change of ownership and was therefore considered a recapitalization of the LLC’s equity. On September 13, 2012, Former Retrophin formed a new entity, Retrophin Pharmaceutical, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Retrophin, Inc. On December 12, 2012, Desert Gateway completed the transactions contemplated under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 12, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Desert Gateway, Desert Gateway Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Desert Gateway, and Former Retrophin, our predecessor, in which Former Retrophin became a wholly-owned subsidiary and the principal operating subsidiary of the Company. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the “2012 Merger”. The Merger became effective on December 12, 2012, upon the filing of a certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Accordingly, the Merger resulted in a change in control of Desert Gateway. Desert Gateway’s net assets amounted to $1,401 at the time of the merger, including $3,721 of cash and $2,320 of trade liabilities. The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization of Former Retrophin into Desert Gateway, whereby Desert Gateway is the legal acquirer and Former Retrophin is the legal acquiree and the accounting acquirer in this transaction. Upon the consummation of the Merger all of the issued and outstanding Class A Preferred shares of Former Retrophin were exchanged into the Company’s common shares at the rate of 1 to 7 (each Class A Preferred stockholder received 7 shares of the Company’s common stock) and all of the issued and outstanding share of common stock of Former Retrophin were exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock on exchange ratio of 1 to 5 (each Common stockholder of Former Retrophin received 5 shares of the Company’s common stock). The consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to these changes as if the merger occurred at the inception of the Company. On February 14, 2013, the Company changed its name to “Retrophin, Inc.” through a short-form merger pursuant to Section 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, with its then wholly owned subsidiary, and our predecessor, Retrophin, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation following the merger. On April 1, 2013, the Company changed its fiscal year end from the last day of February to December 31 in order to conform its reporting cycle to that of Former Retrophin. Retrophin, is an emerging biotechnology company dedicated to developing drugs for rare and life-threatening diseases. Retrophin’s primary business objective is to develop and commercialize therapies for orphan diseases. The Company is considered to be a development stage company and, as such, the Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, “Development Stage Entities” (“ASC 915”). The Company is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties associated with development stage companies. |

RESTATEMENTS OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | NOTE 2. RESTATEMENTS OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) In September 2014, the Company’s board of directors requested that the Company’s outside legal counsel conduct an investigation (the “Investigation”) into the circumstances surrounding the negotiation and execution by the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Martin Shkreli, of certain consulting and settlement agreements entered into by the Company. The Investigation also covered additional agreements and other matters involving Mr. Shkreli during his tenure as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In January 2015, the Company’s board of directors appointed an Oversight Committee of the board of directors (the “Oversight Committee”), consisting of Gary Lyons and Jeffrey Meckler, each of whom was not a member of the Company’s board of directors during the period of time covered by the Investigation. The Company’s board of directors delegated to the Oversight Committee the independent and plenary authority to oversee and direct the Investigation and make findings and decisions related to the Investigation. Following the investigation, the Oversight Committee concluded the following: · In September 2013 and December 2013, the Company entered into two consulting agreements and releases with individuals or entities that had been investors in investment funds previously managed by Mr. Shkreli (the “MSMB Entities”), or that otherwise had financial dealings with Mr. Shkreli. The agreements provided for the issuance of a total of 346,500 shares of common stock of the Company, and a total of $200,000 in cash payments by the Company. The Oversight Committee concluded that the Company should not continue to treat these agreements as consulting agreements because their predominant purpose appears to have been to settle and release claims against the MSMB Entities or Mr. Shkreli personally, and not to provide meaningful and sustained consulting services to the Company. The Oversight Committee also determined that the Company paid approximately $165,000 of legal fees, and $135,000 of other professional fees on behalf of the MSMB Entities, which were charged to operations during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Related Party Transactions note has been updated to include this disclosure. The Oversight Committee concluded that certain of the transactions described above were consummated without specific approval of the Company’s board of directors or without the Company’s board of directors knowing all of the relevant facts. Quantitative Impact on Previously Issued Interim and Annual Financial Statements The following table sets forth the effects (in thousands) of the matters identified by the Oversight Committee on affected items within the Company’s previously reported Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods ended September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013.

The misstated expenses include costs related to the February Private Placement, certain accruals, consulting fees, and changes in the fair value of the unrecorded warrants, which required liability classification.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS | NOTE 3. LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $68.2 million, including stock-based compensation of $27.3 million for the period from March 11, 2011 (inception) to December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, the Company had a cash balance of approximately $6.0 million and a working capital deficiency of approximately $29.1 million; however, the working capital deficit includes a derivative liability of approximately $25.0 million for warrants issued in financing transactions. The Company’s accumulated deficit amounted to approximately $68.2 million at December 31, 2013. The Company has principally financed its operations from inception using proceeds from sales of its equity securities in a series of private placement transactions (see Note 15). On January 9, 2014, the Company raised gross proceeds of approximately $40 million. The Company to date has no revenues, significantly limited capital resources and is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties that are typical of a development stage enterprise. Significant uncertainties include, among others, whether it will be able to raise the capital it needs to finance its planned operations and whether such operations, if launched, will enable the Company to become a profitable enterprise. On August 14, 2013, the Company and the investors who participated in the private placement transaction that the Company completed on February 14, 2013, entered into the first amendment to the registration rights agreement (the “Amended Registration Rights Agreement”) associated with that transaction. The Amended Registration Rights Agreement provides, among other things, for (i) a waiver of any and all liquidated damages that the Company incurred for its inability to cause the a registration statement to be declared effective within certain contractually defined time-frames stipulated in the original agreement; (ii) a commitment on the part of the investors in the February private placement to participate in a private placement transaction that the Company completed on August 15, 2013, and (iii) a covenant on the part of the Company to proceed with the sale of shares that were issued under the August 15, 2013 private placement transaction. In exchange, the Company paid an aggregate fee to these investors of $2,495,256 consisting of (i) 73,710 shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate fair value of $331,695 (based on the selling price of $4.50 per share in the August financing transaction); (ii) cash in the amount of $1,835,000; and (iii) warrants to purchase 98,756 shares of common stock with a fair value of $328,561. The investors were also given the option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.50 as a use of the cash portion of the payment arrangement. Accordingly, $946,196 of the cash portion of the fee was settled in cash and the remainder was settled by the issuance of 197,512, shares. Additionally, the Company paid $103,425 to an investor to whom the Company sold shares in a private placement transaction in January 2013 and who participated in the August 2013 private placement transaction. This payment was settled entirely by the issuance of 20,685 shares of the Company’s common stock at a value of $5.00 per share (see Note 15). In the second quarter of 2013, the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and a related party became parties to a series of agreements to settle up to $2,284,511 of liabilities, which Company management believes are the primary obligation of the related party. The Company paid $593,111 of these settlements in the second quarter on behalf of the related party and had outstanding liabilities of $1,691,400 as of September 30, 2013, which the Company paid as of the date of this filing. Concurrent with the execution and payment of such settlement agreements, the Company entered into indemnification agreements and received promissory notes from the related party whereby the related party agreed to pay the Company the principal amount of $2,284,511 plus interest at an annualized rate of 5% as reimbursement of payments that the Company made to settle a portion of the agreements. The Chief Executive Officer also agreed to deliver or cause to be delivered 47,128 shares of common stock to one of the counter parties as a separate component of one of these agreements. Accordingly, the Company does not believe it is required to record a liability for the shared-based component of this specific agreement during the third quarter ended September 30, 2013. There is uncertainty as to whether the related party will have sufficient liquidity to repay the Company or fund the indemnification agreements should it become necessary (see Note 13). In addition, on August 29, 2013, the Company entered into and paid an additional settlement agreement for $300,000. Effective October 1, 2013, the Company signed a Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA”) with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (“St. Jude”). Unless otherwise terminated by operation of law or by acts of the parties in accordance with the terms of the agreement, the SRA shall be in full force and effect for a period of two (2) years and shall expire on October 1, 2015. The term may be extended by written agreement between the parties. The Company and St. Jude will collaborate on research focused on the study of PKAN disease and other infectious diseases (see Note 14). On December 12, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Novartis Pharma AG and Novartis AG pursuant to which Novartis and Novartis AG agreed to grant the Company an exclusive, perpetual, and royalty-bearing license for the manufacture, development and commercialization of Syntocinon and related intranasal products in the United States. Under the license, Novartis and Novartis AG are obligated to transfer to the Company certain information that is necessary for or related to the development or commercialization of Syntocinon. The Company is responsible for conducting research and preclinical, clinical and other development of Syntocinon at its expense, and must use commercially reasonably efforts to develop Syntocinon in the United States. As consideration for the license, the Company paid to Novartis and Novartis AG a $5 million upfront fee and is required to pay annual maintenance fees of $3 million after each anniversary until there has been regulatory approval, up to $34 million in developmental milestones for the first indication and up to $32 million in developmental milestones for the second indication. Should the Company commercialize the Product, it will be obligated to pay Novartis and Novartis AG a 10%-20% royalty on net sales of such products (see Note 8). On December 12, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement “Weg License Agreement,” with Stuart Weg, MD, pursuant to which Dr. Weg agreed to grant the Company an exclusive worldwide license for the manufacture, development and distribution of products to be developed for the treatment of central nervous system disorders. As consideration for the license, the Company paid Dr. Weg $1,000,000, as well as certain maintenance and sublicensing fees. The Company is also obligated to pay Dr. Weg certain royalties on sales of Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) approved products. On December 12, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with The Regents of the University of California, on behalf of its San Diego Campus (“UCSD”), pursuant to which UCSD will undertake research projects related to a study on oxytocin. As consideration for the research program, the Company is obligated to pay an aggregate of approximately $1.54 million in fees to UCSD on a specified timeline, of which $0 has been paid as of the date hereof. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has accrued $40,082 in relation to the agreement. The Company is obligated to pay $192,500 per quarter through 2015. This agreement will continue until completion of the projects, unless earlier terminated by either party (i) due to a material uncured breach of such agreement by the other party or (ii) for any reason by giving written notice to the other party within 60 days. On December 16, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), the Company announced that it had withdrawn its proposal to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Transcept Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Transcept”). The Company no longer owns any shares of Transcept’s common stock. The Company realized a gain of $235,839 on the sale of Transcept shares for the year ended December 31, 2013. On December 16, 2013, the Company entered into an employment agreement (the “Shkreli Employment Agreement”) with Martin Shkreli, pursuant to which Mr. Shkreli will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). In accordance with the terms of the Shkreli Employment Agreement, Mr. Shkreli will be paid (i) a base salary in the amount of $300,000 (subject to adjustments at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors after each anniversary of the Effective Date), and (ii) at the sole discretion of the board, an annual bonus award based upon specific goals and performance metrics. On December 23, 2013, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Kyalin Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Kyalin”), pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock (the “Shares”) from the Kyalin Sellers (“Sellers”). In consideration for the Shares, the Company agreed to pay to the Sellers (i) $1 million of cash consideration at specified dates; and (ii) up to $4 million of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share at certain dates and subject to the achievement of certain milestones. Under certain limited circumstances, the Company would be required to pay to the Sellers, in the place of such shares of common stock, an amount of cash equal to one-half (1/2) of the value of the shares of common stock issuable in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement (see Note 8.) On March 26, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding membership interests of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“Manchester” or “acquiree”), a privately-held specialty pharmaceutical company that focuses on treatments for rare diseases. The acquisition of Manchester expands the Company’s ability to address the special needs of patients with ultra-rare diseases. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid $29.5 million upon closing, of which $3.2 million was paid by Retrophin Therapeutics International LLC, a newly formed indirect wholly owned subsidiary, for rights of product sales outside of the United States. The Company entered into a promissory note with Manchester principals for $33 million to be paid in three equal installments of $11 million within three, six, and nine months after closing. Additional contingent payments will be made based on product sales. The Company expects to raise additional funds through a public equity offering, a private equity offering, and/or debt financing to satisfy its short term obligations. The financial statements of the acquiree are not practicable to prepare at the time of filing due to the acquiree being privately held and not maintaining financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The initial accounting for the business combination is not yet complete and the Company is still performing procedures to determine the appropriate accounting. As such, the Company is unable to make the following disclosures, (i) pro forma data, (ii) purchase price allocation, (iii) expenses of the acquisition, and (iv) revenue and earnings of the acquiree since the acquisition date. Management believes the Company’s ability to continue its operations depends on its ability to raise capital. The Company’s future depends on the costs, timing, and outcome of regulatory reviews of its product candidates and the costs of commercialization activities, including product marketing, sales and distribution. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of assets or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company raised approximately $30.9 million in certain private placement transactions and raised an additional $40 million in gross proceeds through a public offering in January 2014. The Company expects to continue to finance its cash needs through additional public offerings, private equity offerings and debt financings, corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements and grants from patient advocacy groups, foundations and government agencies. Although management believes that the Company has access to capital resources, there are no commitments for financing in place at this time, nor can management provide any assurance that such financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows: Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary in conformity with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Cash For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash instruments with maturities of less than three months when purchased to be cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents as of the balance sheet date. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. Marketable Securities The Company accounts for marketable securities held as “available-for-sale” in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC 320”). The Company classifies these investments as current assets and carry them at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses on marketable security transactions are reported in earnings and computed using the specific identification of cost basis. Marketable securities are maintained at one financial institution and are governed by the Company’s investment policy as approved by our Board of Directors. Fair values of marketable securities are based on quoted market prices. Valuation of marketable securities are further describe in Note 5. Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased Securities sold, not yet purchased consist of marketable securities that the Company has sold short. In order to facilitate a short sale, the Company borrows the securities from another party and delivers the securities to the buyer. The Company will be required to "cover" its short sale in the future through the purchase of the security in the market at the prevailing market price and deliver it to the counterparty from which it borrowed. The Company is exposed to a loss to the extent that the security price increases during the time from when the Company borrowed the security to when the Company purchases it in the market to cover the short sale. The Company accounts for securities sold, not yet purchased in accordance with ASC 815 – Derivative and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which states such transactions have two of the three characteristics of a derivative instrument and do not generally involve derivative instruments. Securities sold, not yet purchased are presented on the consolidated balance sheets with gains and losses reported in realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Restricted Cash The Company holds restricted cash as a rent guarantee on an operating lease through September 2016. Employee Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 addresses all forms of share- based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans and stock incentive shares. Under ASC 718 awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in a charge to operations. Non-Employee Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505, “Share Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505”), and ASC 718 which requires that such equity instruments are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instruments vest. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are being amortized over their respective contractual vesting periods. Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities in share-based payments, estimating fair value of equity instruments recorded as derivative liabilities, estimating the useful lives of depreciable and amortizable assets and estimating the fair value of long-lived assets to assets whether impairment charges may apply. Research and Development Costs The Company develops new products through research and development and the licensing and acquisition of third-party businesses and technologies. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred and consist primarily of internal and external expenses related to conducting clinical trials, pre-clinical studies, regulatory activities, consulting, contract research and development, and compensation. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the period from March 11, 2011 (inception) through December 31, 2013, the Company recognized $7,084,009, $662,502 $7,978,522, respectively, of research and development costs. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Since the Company was incorporated on March 11, 2011, all of its years of operations will be subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its consolidated financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such expense as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the period from March 11, 2011 (inception) through December 31, 2013. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its position. Prior to conversion into a corporation on September 20, 2012, as a limited liability company, the Company was treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal and state income taxes in the accompanying financial statements for any periods preceding September 20, 2012, since all items of income or loss are required to be reported on the income tax returns of the members, who are responsible for any taxes thereon. Profits and losses are allocated based upon capital in accordance with the permissible methods under Internal Revenue Code Section 704. Further, the Company incurred losses since inception through September 20, 2012, that would have resulted in the recognition of deferred tax assets that would have been fully reserved had the Company been subject to income taxes. The Company is subject to the New York City Unincorporated Business Tax through September 19, 2012. Subsequent to the Company’s conversion to a corporation from a limited liability company on September 20, 2012, the Company reports and pays taxes based on its income or loss. Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement The Company accounts for foreign currency translation and remeasurement in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC 830”). Under ASC 830, currency assets and liabilities are translated into the reporting currency, US Dollars, using period end rates of exchange and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Functional statements of operations amounts expressed in functional currencies are translated using average exchange rates for the respective periods. Remeasurement adjustments and gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are recorded as foreign exchange gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations. Patents The Company capitalized external cost, such as filing fees and associated attorney fees, incurred to obtain issued patents and patent applications pending. The Company expense cost associated with maintaining and defending patents subsequent to their issuance in the period incurred. The Company amortizes patent cost once issued on a straight-line basis over the estimate useful lives of the patents. The Company assesses the carrying amounts of its patents for potential impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of our patents may not be recoverable. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, patents costs of $49,775 and $18,093, respectively, are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Long-Lived Assets The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, “Long-lived assets, other than goodwill, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or any other significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. Application of alternative assumptions, such as changes in estimate of future cash flows, could produce significantly different results. Because of the significance of the judgments and estimation processes, it is likely that materially different amounts could be recorded if we used different assumptions or if the underlying circumstances were to change. For long-lived assets used in operations, impairment losses are only recorded if the asset’s carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted, probability-weighted future cash flows. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value. Basic and diluted Net Loss Per Share Basic and diluted net loss per share has been computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. All potentially dilutive common shares have been excluded since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. An aggregate of 4,462,426 and 0 warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, because their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect for the periods presented. An aggregate of 172,667 and 0 stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, because they would have an anti-dilutive effect for the periods presented. An aggregate of 168,643 and 267,768 incentive shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, because they were contingent shares subject to recall. On January 9, 2014, the Company completed a public offering of 4.7 million shares of common stock at a price of $8.50 per share (see Note 18). Subsequent to year end, an aggregate of 798,391 warrants were exercised for a total of $3,830,316 in cash received by the Company (see Note 18). Derivative Instruments The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then revalued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of the financial instruments using the Binomial Lattice options pricing model at inception and on each subsequent valuation date. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period (see Note 6 and Note 7). Joint and Several Liability Arrangements The Company measures obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements as the sum of the amount that the Company has a) contractually agreed to pay, and b) any additional amounts that the Company expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. Financial Instruments and Fair Value The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820 are described below: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 In estimating the fair value of the Company’s marketable securities available-for-sale and securities sold, not yet purchased, the Company used quoted prices in active markets (see Note 5 and Note 7). In estimating the fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities, the Company used the Binomial Lattice pricing model (see Note 6 and Note 7). Financial assets with carrying values approximating fair value include cash as well as marketable securities, deposits on license agreements, prepaid expenses and other current assets. Financial liabilities with carrying values approximating fair value include accounts payable and accrued expenses. Treasury Stock Treasury stock is recorded at cost. Issuance of treasury stock is accounted for on a first-in, first-out basis. Differences between the cost of treasury stock and the re- issuance proceeds are charged to additional paid-in capital. Registration Payment Arrangements The Company accounts for registration payment arrangements in accordance with ASC 825-20, “Registration Payment Arrangements” (“ASC 825-20”) ASC 825- 20 addresses an issuer’s accounting for registration payment arrangements. This pronouncement specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument, should be separately recognized and accounted for as a contingency in accordance with ASC 450-20, “Loss Contingencies” (“ASC 450”). Reclassifications Certain prior year financial statement balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the recorded net loss. The Company reclassified research and development expenses and selling, general, and administrative expenses. Subsequent Events The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 855-10, “Subsequent Events” (“ASC 855-10”) relating to subsequent events. This guidance establishes principles and requirements for subsequent events. This guidance defines the period after the balance sheet date during which events or transactions that may occur would be required to be disclosed in a company’s financial statements. The Company has evaluated subsequent events up to the date of issuance of this report. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-04 “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Amount at the Reporting Date is Fixed” (“ASU 2013-04”). The guidance in this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 with early adoption permitted. The guidance in this update requires companies to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements as the sum of the amount the entity has a) contractually agreed to pay, and b) any additional amounts that the entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The Company early adopted this guidance in the second quarter of 2013 (Note 3 and Note 13). The FASB has issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this ASU state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of this standard and it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a significant effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. |

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivative and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC Topic 815-40”), instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. Based upon the Company’s analysis of the criteria contained in ASC Topic 815-40, the warrants issued in connection with the sale of the common stock during the year ended December 31, 2013 that do not have fixed settlement provisions, are not indexed to the Company’s own stock. The fair value of the warrants are classified as liability instruments due to a non-standard anti-dilution provision that provides for a reduction to the exercise price of the warrants if the Company issues additional equity or equity linked instruments in the future at an effective price per share less than the exercise price then in effect. The warrants are re-measured at each balance sheet date based on estimated fair value. Changes in estimated fair value are recorded as non-cash valuation adjustments within other income (expense) in the Company’s accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded a loss on a change in the estimated fair value of warrants of $10,099,926 during the year ended December 31, 2013 The Company calculated the fair value of the warrants using the Binomial Lattice pricing model. The assumptions used at the date of issuance and at December 31, 2013 are noted in the following table: As of Date of issuance Date of issuance Date of issuance December 31, 2013 Fair market price of common stock $ 3.75 $ 4.50 $ 4.50 $ 7.00 Contractual term 5 years 5 years 5 years 4.12 – 4.62 years Risk-free interest rate 0.86 % 1.48 % 1.48 % 1.39% Expected volatility 101 % 106 % 106 % 93% – 97% Expected volatility is based on historical stock volatilities of several comparable publicly-traded companies over a period equal to the expected terms of the warrants, as the Company does not have a long trading history to estimate the volatility of its own common stock. The warrants have a transferability provision. Based on guidance provided in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) for options issued with such a provision, the Company used the full contractual term as the initial expected term of the warrants. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury security rates for the remaining term of the warrants at the measurement date. The following tables illustrates the Company’s derivative warrant issuances and balances outstanding as of, and during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012: Weighted Average Warrants Exercise Price Fair Value Outstanding at December 31, 2011 - $ - $ - Issued - - - Canceled - - - Exercised - - - Outstanding at December 31, 2012 - $ - $ - Issued 4,782,249 5.04 3.13 Canceled - - - Exercised - - - Outstanding at December 31, 2013 4,782,249 $ 5.04 $ 5.23 The following information applies to derivative warrants outstanding at December 31, 2013: Weighted Average Exercise Price Number of Warrants Life (years) Number Exercisable $ 3.60 1,917,792 4.12 1,917,792 $ 6.00 2,864,457 4.62 2,864,457 The total intrinsic value of derivative warrants outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2013 is $9,384,950.

At each reporting period, the Company performs a detailed analysis of the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC Topic 820. At each reporting period, all assets and liabilities for which the fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs or instruments which trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency are classified as Level 3. |

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INTANGIBLE ASSETS | NOTE 8. INTANGIBLE ASSETS Indefinite lived intangible assets The Company purchased, and currently owns (i) an exclusive, perpetual, and royalty-bearing license exclusive for the manufacture, development and commercialization of a product in the United States (ii) technology related to an intranasal formulation compound. The intellectual property underlying the license and formula is held in perpetuity. These intangible assets are measured initially at cost not subject to amortization and are tested for impairment annually or in interim reporting periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these intangible asset might not be recoverable. FASB ASC 740-10-55 (“ASC 740”) addresses the accounting treatment when an asset is acquired outside of a business combination, and the tax basis of that asset differs from the amount paid. As a result of this guidance, the Company has stepped-up the basis of its intangible assets and has recorded a deferred tax liability in the same amount, to account for the basis difference resulting from the Kyalin acquisition. Indefinite lived intangible assets as of December 31, 2013 consist of the following: Syntocinon License $ 5,000,000 Carbetocin Assets 5,560,355 Total $ 10,560,355 2013 Activity Syntocinon License Agreement On December 12, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into an agreement with Novartis Pharma AG and Novartis AG pursuant to which Novartis and Novartis AG agreed to grant the Company an exclusive, perpetual, and royalty-bearing license for the manufacture, development and commercialization of Syntocinon (the “Product”) and related intranasal products in the United States. Under the license, Novartis and Novartis AG are obligated to transfer to the Company certain information that is necessary for or related to the development or commercialization of Syntocinon. The Company is responsible for conducting research and preclinical, clinical trials and other development of Syntocinon at its expense, and must use commercially reasonably efforts to develop Syntocinon in the United States. As consideration for the license, the Company paid to Novartis Pharma AG and Novartis AG a $5 million upfront fee and is required to make substantial payments at certain dates and upon the achievement of certain milestones as follows: (i) annual payments of $3,000,000 after each anniversary of the Effective Date until there has been Regulatory Approval of the Product for use in an autism or schizophrenia indication from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, (ii) a milestone payment of $2,000,000 after the first patient is enrolled in a clinical trial for any indication not set forth in the New Drug Application (“NDA”) filed by Novartis on January 19, 1960 for the following indications: initial milk let-down, milk retention, incipient mastitis, impaired milk let-down, (the “Initial NDA registration”), (iii) a milestone payment of $2,000,000 after the first patient is enrolled in a registration study in the first indication for the Product for any indication not set forth in the Initial NDA, (iv) a milestone payment of $2,000,000 after the first patient is enrolled in a registration study in the second indication for the Product for any indication not set forth in the Initial NDA, (v) a milestone payment of $5,000,000 after the receipt of positive results from a registration study in the first indication for the Product for any indication not set forth in the Initial NDA (vi) a milestone payment of $5,000,000 after receipt of positive results from a registration study in the second indication for the Product for any indication not set forth in the Initial NDA, (vii) a milestone payment of $10,000,000 after filing an NDA for the first indication for any indication not set for the in the Initial NDA, (viii) a milestone payment of $10,000,000 after filing an NDA for the second indication for any indication not set for the in the Initial NDA, (ix) a milestone payment of $15,000,000 after Regulatory Approval of the Product in the first indication from FDA for any indication not set forth in the Initial NDA, (x) a milestone payment of $15,000,000 after Regulatory Approval of the Product in the second indication from FDA for any indication not set forth in the Initial NDA. Should the Company commercialize the Product, it will be obligated to pay Novartis and Novartis AG a 10%-20% royalty on net sales of such products. The Company capitalized the $5,000,000 upfront fee as an indefinite lived intangible asset. The Company will test for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has accrued the annual maintenance fee in the amount of $150,000. Kyalin - Carbetocin Technology Purchase On December 23, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Kyalin to acquire substantially all of Kyalin’s assets which include patents, patent applications, contracts and data related to the intranasal formulation of the compound Carbetocin (collectively, the “Carbetocin Assets”) Carbetocin, similar to Oxytocin, has potential utility for the treatment of milk let-down in post pregnant women, inducing contractions during labor, postpartum hemorrhage, as well as for autism and schizophrenia. The Company determined to treat the Stock Purchase Agreement as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”). In accordance with ASC 805, the Company is required to determine whether the transaction meets the definition of a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. The form in which the transaction takes place typically will not affect the determination of whether the acquisition is a business. A business is identified by evaluating whether there is sufficient continuity of operations so that disclosure of prior financial information is material to an understanding of future operations. Kyalin has had significantly limited activity since its formation on October 4, 2011. The Company agreed to pay to the Sellers $3,000,000 of fixed minimum payments consisting of: (i) $500,000 of cash at closing, (ii) $500,000 of cash on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (iii) $1,000,000 of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share common stock on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (iv) $1,000,000 of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share common stock on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and up to $2,000,000 of additional consideration thereafter, subject to the attainment of following milestones, (v) $800,000 of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share common stock after completion of the first Phase II study of a compound that meets its primary endpoint and would enable the Company to subsequently move the respective compound into a Phase III Study, (vi) $800,000 of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share common stock after completion of the first Phase III Study of a compound that meets its primary endpoint such that the safety and efficacy data from such Phase III Study may be included in an NDA for a drug with the FDA, (vii) $400,000 of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share common stock after receipt of FDA approval of an NDA for a drug. On the closing date of the acquisition, the Company paid $365,370 and recorded a liability of $2,634,630. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has recorded a liability of $634,630 for the cash and $2,000,000 for value of shares payable at certain future dates in accordance with the stock purchase agreement. Share payments shall be issued based on the greater of (a) the average price per share quoted 30 trading days immediately preceding the date such shares first become issuable or (b) $7.0938 per share. The Company has recorded a deferred purchase asset liability of $2,634,630. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company has stepped-up the basis of its intangible assets in the amount of $2,525,124 and has recorded a deferred tax liability in the same amount, to account for the basis difference resulting from the Kyalin acquisition (see Note 17). Amortizable intangible assets 2012 Activity Ligand License Agreement On February 16, 2012 the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a biotechnology company (‘the Sublicensor’) with license rights to certain drug technologies agreed to grant the Company a worldwide sublicense for the development, manufacture and commercialization of Sparsentan (DARA). The license agreement also enables the Company to sell the licensed technology as a research product or sublicense the technology to other third parties as potential sources of revenue. Under the license agreement, Sublicensor is obligated to transfer to the Company certain information, records, regulatory filings, materials and inventory controlled by Sublicensor and relating to or useful for developing Sparsentan. The Company must use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize Sparsentan in specified major market countries and other countries in which the Company believes it is commercially reasonable to develop and commercialize such products. The agreement shall continue until neither party has any obligations under the agreement to make payments to the other party. In accordance with the agreement as amended most recently as of January 7, 2013, the Company was obligated to make two non-refundable payments totaling $2,550,000, the first payment of $1,150,000 was made upon execution and the second payment of $1,400,000 was made in February 2013, and includes a $250,000 fee payable to the sublicensee in exchange for extending the due date of this payment from October 1, 2012 to February 2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has recognized $2,300,000 for the cost of the License Agreement which is presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as an intangible asset that is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the License Agreement which expires on September 30, 2023.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | NOTE 13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In August 2012, the Company paid a security deposit on behalf of an affiliate of $137,547 in connection with a building lease entered into by such affiliate. The Company assumed the lease from its affiliate in April 2013, whereby the security deposit was assigned to the Company. During the year 2012, the Company paid an aggregate amount of $563,380 in legal fees on behalf of the same affiliate. The affiliate is currently in the process of dissolving and the Company does not expect to collect the amount outstanding. As a result, the Company has written-off $563,380 to bad debt expense in 2012. Such charge is included in selling general and administrative expense in the statement of operations. In the second quarter of 2013, the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and a related party, which is a former investor in the Company that was previously managed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, became party to a series of agreements to settle up to $2,284,511 of liabilities, which Company management believes are the primary obligation of the related party. The Company and the related party have entered into indemnification agreements whereby the related party has agreed to defend and hold the Company harmless against all such obligations and amounts, whether paid or unpaid, arising from these agreements. Notwithstanding the indemnification, the Company recorded a $2,284,511 charge to operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 for the (a) $2,203,711 of cash consideration, and (b) 11,000 shares of common stock valued at $80,800 of non-cash consideration. The $2,284,511 is entirely paid as of the date of this filing. In addition, the Chief Executive Officer also agreed to provide one of the counter parties with 47,128 shares of his common stock in the Company as a separate component of one of these settlement agreements. Accordingly, the Company does not believe it is required to record a liability for the shared-based component of this specific agreement. There is uncertainty as to whether the related party will have sufficient liquidity to repay the Company or fund the indemnification agreements should it become necessary. Concurrent with the execution of such settlement agreements, the Company and the related party entered into promissory notes whereby the related party agreed to pay the Company the principal amount of $2,284,511 plus interest at an annualized rate of 5% as reimbursement of payments that the Company made to settle a portion of the agreements. The Company applied the accounting guidance provided in ASU 2013-04. The guidance in this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 with early adoption permitted. The guidance in this update requires companies to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements as the sum of the amount that the entity has a) contractually agreed to pay, and b) any additional amounts that the entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The Company has recorded the full amount of the settlements as a charge to its operations due to uncertainty as to whether the related party will have sufficient liquidity to repay the Company or fund the indemnification agreements should it become necessary. Any amounts that the Company may recover under the note due from the related party or under the terms of the indemnification agreement, if in fact any amounts are recovered at all, would be characterized as a capital contribution at the date such payments are received. On August 15, 2013, the Company closed a private placement and sold 5,531,401 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a purchase price of $4.50 per share, or $24,891,303 in the aggregate, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,765,701 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $6.00 per share underlying each warrant. Members of the Company’s management purchased an aggregate of 10,522 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,261 shares of common stock in such private placement. The Warrants are deemed to be derivative instruments due to a ratchet provision that adjusts the exercise price if the Company issues additional equity instruments in the future at an effective price per share less than the exercise price then in effect. The issuance of the shares of common stock in such private placement was not registered under the Securities Act as such issuance was exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. In September 2013 and December 2013, the Company entered into two separate settlement agreements and releases with individuals or entities that were investors in MSMB Entities, or that otherwise had financial dealings with Mr. Shkreli. The agreements provided for the issuance of a total of 346,500 shares of common stock of the Company, and a total of $200,000 in cash payments by the Company. Under the first agreement the Company entered into on September 20, 2013, the Company agreed to issue 331,500 shares of common stock follows (i) 131,500 shares of common stock issued upon execution of the agreement, (ii) 50,000 shares of common stock issued on September 30, 2013, (iii) 50,000 shares of common stock issued on December 31, 2013, (iv) 50,000 shares of common stock issued on March 31, 2014, and (v) 50,000 shares issued on June 30, 2014. Under the second agreement entered into on December 31, 2013, the Company agreed to issue 15,000 shares of common stock issued and paid upon the date of execution. During the term of the agreement, the Company was required to pay the consultant $50,000 per month. The Company recorded a $2,708,375 charge to operations for the cash and aggregate issuance date fair value of the shares issued/issuable under these agreements and subsequently marked the remaining share base payment liability to current fair value by recording a credit to operations of $173,625. The Company also paid approximately $165,000 of legal fees and $135,000 of other professional fees on behalf of a related party during the year ended December 31, 2013 that were charged to operations. |

Upon issuance of the warrants, the Company recorded a liability of $9,201,487 to derivative financial instruments in its balance sheet. The issuance of the shares of common stock in such private placement was not registered under the Securities Act as such issuance was exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. February Registration Rights Agreement On February 14, 2013, in connection with the closing of the February Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the purchasers in the February Private Placement (the “Purchasers”), which sets forth the rights of the Purchasers to have their shares of common stock purchased in the February Private Placement and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants registered with the SEC for public resale. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company was required to file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC within 30 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement registering the total number of shares of common stock purchased in the February Private Placement and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company further agreed to use its reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective within 60 days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement (or, in the event of a “full review” by the SEC, within 90 days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement). The Company has also agreed to use reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until all of the securities covered by the Registration Statement have or may be sold by investors under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, without volume or manner- of-sale restrictions. The Registration Rights Agreement provided that in the event the Registration Statement was not filed or declared effective within the prescribed time period or if the Company failed to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as required for specified time periods, the Company shall pay to the holders of registrable securities, on the date of each such event and on each monthly anniversary thereof until the applicable event is cured, partial liquidated damages equal to 2.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Purchaser in the February Private Placement, up to a maximum of 10.0% of such aggregate purchase price. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Purchaser, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The Company determined, as of the date of the financing transaction, that it was probable that it would not be in a position to cause the registration statement to be declared effective within the contractually defined time period. Accordingly, the Company allocated approximately $360,000 of the proceeds to a registration payment arrangement liability on the date that the financing transaction closed, in accordance with the guidelines of ASC 825-20. As described in Note 3, the Company and the investors who are parties to the registration payment arrangement entered into an the Amended Registration Rights Agreement which provides, among other things, for a waiver of the liquidated damages that the Company incurred under the original terms of the registration payment arrangement described herein. The Company recognized $360,000 as income upon the waiver of the liquidated damages. First Amendment to the February Registration Rights Agreement As described in Note 3, the Company and the investors who participated in the private placement transaction that the Company completed on February 14, 2013 entered into the Amended Registration Rights Agreement which provides, among other things, for (i) a waiver of any and all liquidated damages that the Company incurred for its inability to cause the registration statement to be declared effective within certain contractually defined time-frames stipulated in the original agreement; (ii) a commitment on the part of the investors in the February private placement to participate in the private placement transaction that the Company completed on August 15, 2013; and (iii) a covenant on the part of the Company to proceed with the sale of shares that were issued in the August 15, 2013 private placement transaction. In exchange, the Company paid an aggregate fee of $2,495,256 to these investors consisting of (i) 73,710 shares of the Company’s common stock with an aggregate fair value of $331,695 (based on the selling price of $4.50 per share in the August financing transaction); (ii) cash in the amount of $1,835,000; and (iii) warrants to purchase 98,756 shares of common stock with a fair value of $328,561 that were classified as derivative liability instruments. The investors were also given the option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.50 per share as a use of the cash portion of the payment arrangement. Accordingly, $946,196 of the cash portion of the fee was settled in cash and the remainder was settled by the issuance of 197,512, shares. Additionally, the Company paid $103,425 to an investor to whom the Company sold shares in a private placement transaction in January 2013 and who participated in the August 2013 private placement transaction. This payment was settled entirely by the issuance of 20,685 shares of the Company’s common stock at a value of $5.00 per share. The Company recorded the aggregate amount of the payments made to the investors by to allocating approximately $360,000 to the waiver of the original registration payment obligation taken as a charge to operations and the remaining amount of $2,238,681 is treated as reduction of the proceeds received in the August financing transaction. August Registration Rights Agreement On August 15, 2013, in connection with the closing of the August 15, 2013 private placement (the “August Private Placement”), the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the purchasers in the August Private Placement (the “Purchasers”), which sets forth the rights of the Purchasers to have their shares of common stock purchased in the Private Placement and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants registered with the SEC for public resale. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company was required to file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC within 30 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement registering the total number of shares of common stock purchased in the August Private Placement and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company further agreed to use its reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective within 60 days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement (or, in the event of a “full review” by the SEC, within 120 days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement). The Company has also agreed to use reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until all of the securities covered by the Registration Statement have or may be sold by investors under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. The Registration Rights Agreement provided that in the event the Registration Statement was not filed or declared effective within the prescribed time period or if the Company failed to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as required for specified time periods, the Company shall pay to the holders of registrable securities, on the date of each such event and on each monthly anniversary thereof until the applicable event is cured, partial liquidated damages equal to 2.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Purchaser in the August Private Placement, up to a maximum of 10.0% of such aggregate purchase price. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Purchaser, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. On September 13, 2013, the Company submitted the Registration Statement to the SEC on a confidential basis. The Company determined, as of the date of the financing transaction, that it was probable that it would be in a position to cause the registration statement to be declared effective within the contractually defined time period.

Shares granted as incentive shares were originally subject to certain conditions at the time of grant. Such conditions specified that the occurrence of a Termination Event, as defined in the amended operating agreement the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase, all, of the vested incentive shares owned by such incentive shareholder, at a purchase price based on the fair market value of the incentive shares determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. The aforementioned repurchase option was rescinded upon the Company’s conversion to a corporation. |

On September 20, 2012, the Company converted from an LLC to a C corporation and, as a result, became subject to corporate federal and state income taxes. This conversion is considered a recapitalization of the equity structure of the Company and was treated as a nontaxable transaction. As a result of the conversion to a taxable entity, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability on the balance sheet and in income tax expense as of the date of the change in tax status in the amount of $1,079,000 related to the technology license. For the periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2013, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no federal current provision for income taxes has been recorded. As a result of indefinite-lived intangibles that are not subject to amortization for tax purposes, the Company recorded a deferred provision for the period ended December 31, 2013. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets including NOL carryovers. At December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $25.3million of federal, state and local net operating losses. The Company's utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to annual limitations due to the ownership change limitations provided by Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382 and similar state provisions. Pursuant to IRC Section 382, the annual use of the Company’s net operating loss credit carryforwards may be limited in the event a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within a three-year period. The annual limitations may result in the expiration of net operating losses and credits prior to utilization. The annual limitation is determined based upon the fair market value of the Company as of the date of such ownership change. Based on the value of the Company at all relevant dates, the computed annual limitation that would result from an ownership change of the Company is not expected to prevent us from utilizing our net operating losses prior to their expiration if we can generate sufficient taxable income to do so in the future. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2032 for federal purposes. The Company recorded a deferred income tax provision of approximately $76,000 in the year ended December 31, 2013 related to the different book and tax treatment for other intangible assets. For tax purposes, intangible assets are subject to different amortization allowances than for book purposes. Further, pursuant to the guidance in FASB ASC 740-10-55, the Company has stepped-up the basis of its intangible assets by $2,525,124 and has recorded a deferred tax liability in the same amount, to account for the book/tax basis difference resulting from the Kyalin acquisition. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions. The Company’s income tax returns are open to examination by federal, state and foreign tax authorities, generally for the years ended December 31, 2011 and later. The Company has no amount recorded for any unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, nor did the Company record any amount for the implementation of ASC 740. The Company’s policy is to record estimated interest and penalty related to the underpayment of income taxes or unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its income tax provision. During the years ended 2013 and 2012, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalties in its statements of operations and there are no accruals for interest or penalties at December 31, 2013 or 2012. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | NOTE 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In accordance with ASC 855-10, Company management reviewed all material events through the date of this report. On February 28, 2014, the Company amended its lease agreement for its offices located in Carlsbad, CA. The Company increased its Carlsbad offices by approximately 3,800 square feet of office space for approximately $110,000 of additional annual base rent plus rent escalations, common area maintenance, insurance, and real estate taxes under a lease agreement expiring in June 2017. Public Offering On January 9, 2014, the Company completed a public offering of 4,705,882 shares of common stock at a price of $8.50 per share. The Company received net proceeds from the offering of $37,399,997, after deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses. Acquisition of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC On March 26, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding membership interests of Manchester Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“Manchester” or “acquiree”), a privately-held specialty pharmaceutical company that focuses on treatments for rare diseases. The acquisition of Manchester expands the Company’s ability to address the special needs of patients with ultra-rare diseases. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid $29.5 million upon closing, of which $3.2 million was paid by Retrophin Therapeutics International LLC, a newly formed indirect wholly owned subsidiary, for rights of product sales outside of the United States. The Company entered into a promissory note with Manchester principals for $33 million to be paid in three equal installments of $11 million within three, six, and nine months after closing. Additional contingent payments will be made based on product sales. The Company expects to raise additional funds through a public equity offering, a private equity offering, and/or debt financing to satisfy its short term obligations. The financial statements of the acquiree are not practicable to prepare at the time of filing due to the acquiree being privately held and not maintaining financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The initial accounting for the business combination is not yet complete and the Company is still performing procedures to determine the appropriate accounting. As such, the Company is unable to make the following disclosures, (i) pro forma data, (ii) purchase price allocation, (iii) expenses of the acquisition, and (iv) revenue and earnings of the acquiree since the acquisition date.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN27
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2013 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary in conformity with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Cash | Cash For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash instruments with maturities of less than three months when purchased to be cash equivalents. There are no cash equivalents as of the balance sheet date. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. |
Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities The Company accounts for marketable securities held as “available-for-sale” in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC 320”). The Company classifies these investments as current assets and carry them at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses on marketable security transactions are reported in earnings and computed using the specific identification of cost basis. Marketable securities are maintained at one financial institution and are governed by the Company’s investment policy as approved by our Board of Directors. Fair values of marketable securities are based on quoted market prices. Valuation of marketable securities are further describe in Note 5. |
Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased | Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased Securities sold, not yet purchased consist of marketable securities that the Company has sold short. In order to facilitate a short sale, the Company borrows the securities from another party and delivers the securities to the buyer. The Company will be required to "cover" its short sale in the future through the purchase of the security in the market at the prevailing market price and deliver it to the counterparty from which it borrowed. The Company is exposed to a loss to the extent that the security price increases during the time from when the Company borrowed the security to when the Company purchases it in the market to cover the short sale. The Company accounts for securities sold, not yet purchased in accordance with ASC 815 – Derivative and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which states such transactions have two of the three characteristics of a derivative instrument and do not generally involve derivative instruments. Securities sold, not yet purchased are presented on the consolidated balance sheets with gains and losses reported in realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash The Company holds restricted cash as a rent guarantee on an operating lease through September 2016. |
Employee Stock-Based Compensation | Employee Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 addresses all forms of share- based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans and stock incentive shares. Under ASC 718 awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in a charge to operations. |
Non-Employee Stock-Based Compensation | Non-Employee Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505, “Share Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505”), and ASC 718 which requires that such equity instruments are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instruments vest. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are being amortized over their respective contractual vesting periods. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities in share-based payments, estimating fair value of equity instruments recorded as derivative liabilities, estimating the useful lives of depreciable and amortizable assets and estimating the fair value of long-lived assets to assets whether impairment charges may apply. |
Research and Development Costs | Research and Development Costs The Company develops new products through research and development and the licensing and acquisition of third-party businesses and technologies. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred and consist primarily of internal and external expenses related to conducting clinical trials, pre-clinical studies, regulatory activities, consulting, contract research and development, and compensation. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the period from March 11, 2011 (inception) through December 31, 2013, the Company recognized $7,084,009, $662,502 $7,978,522, respectively, of research and development costs. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Since the Company was incorporated on March 11, 2011, all of its years of operations will be subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its consolidated financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such expense as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the period from March 11, 2011 (inception) through December 31, 2013. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its position. Prior to conversion into a corporation on September 20, 2012, as a limited liability company, the Company was treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal and state income taxes in the accompanying financial statements for any periods preceding September 20, 2012, since all items of income or loss are required to be reported on the income tax returns of the members, who are responsible for any taxes thereon. Profits and losses are allocated based upon capital in accordance with the permissible methods under Internal Revenue Code Section 704. Further, the Company incurred losses since inception through September 20, 2012, that would have resulted in the recognition of deferred tax assets that would have been fully reserved had the Company been subject to income taxes. The Company is subject to the New York City Unincorporated Business Tax through September 19, 2012. Subsequent to the Company’s conversion to a corporation from a limited liability company on September 20, 2012, the Company reports and pays taxes based on its income or loss. |
Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement | Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement The Company accounts for foreign currency translation and remeasurement in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC 830”). Under ASC 830, currency assets and liabilities are translated into the reporting currency, US Dollars, using period end rates of exchange and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Functional statements of operations amounts expressed in functional currencies are translated using average exchange rates for the respective periods. Remeasurement adjustments and gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are recorded as foreign exchange gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Patents | Patents The Company capitalized external cost, such as filing fees and associated attorney fees, incurred to obtain issued patents and patent applications pending. The Company expense cost associated with maintaining and defending patents subsequent to their issuance in the period incurred. The Company amortizes patent cost once issued on a straight-line basis over the estimate useful lives of the patents. The Company assesses the carrying amounts of its patents for potential impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of our patents may not be recoverable. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, patents costs of $49,775 and $18,093, respectively, are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. |
Long-Lived Assets | Long-Lived Assets The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, “Long-lived assets, other than goodwill, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or any other significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. Application of alternative assumptions, such as changes in estimate of future cash flows, could produce significantly different results. Because of the significance of the judgments and estimation processes, it is likely that materially different amounts could be recorded if we used different assumptions or if the underlying circumstances were to change. For long-lived assets used in operations, impairment losses are only recorded if the asset’s carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted, probability-weighted future cash flows. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value. |
Basic and diluted Net Loss Per Share | Basic and diluted Net Loss Per Share Basic and diluted net loss per share has been computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. All potentially dilutive common shares have been excluded since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. An aggregate of 4,462,426 and 0 warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, because their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect for the periods presented. An aggregate of 172,667 and 0 stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, because they would have an anti-dilutive effect for the periods presented. An aggregate of 168,643 and 267,768 incentive shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, because they were contingent shares subject to recall. On January 9, 2014, the Company completed a public offering of 4.7 million shares of common stock at a price of $8.50 per share (see Note 18). Subsequent to year end, an aggregate of 798,391 warrants were exercised for a total of $3,830,316 in cash received by the Company (see Note 18). |
Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then revalued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of the financial instruments using the Binomial Lattice options pricing model at inception and on each subsequent valuation date. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period (see Note 6 and Note 7). |
Joint and Several Liability Arrangements | Joint and Several Liability Arrangements The Company measures obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements as the sum of the amount that the Company has a) contractually agreed to pay, and b) any additional amounts that the Company expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. |
Financial Instruments and Fair Value | Financial Instruments and Fair Value The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820 are described below: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 In estimating the fair value of the Company’s marketable securities available-for-sale and securities sold, not yet purchased, the Company used quoted prices in active markets (see Note 5 and Note 7). In estimating the fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities, the Company used the Binomial Lattice pricing model (see Note 6 and Note 7). Financial assets with carrying values approximating fair value include cash as well as marketable securities, deposits on license agreements, prepaid expenses and other current assets. Financial liabilities with carrying values approximating fair value include accounts payable and accrued expenses. |
Treasury Stock | Treasury Stock Treasury stock is recorded at cost. Issuance of treasury stock is accounted for on a first-in, first-out basis. Differences between the cost of treasury stock and the re- issuance proceeds are charged to additional paid-in capital. |
Registration Payment Arrangements | Registration Payment Arrangements The Company accounts for registration payment arrangements in accordance with ASC 825-20, “Registration Payment Arrangements” (“ASC 825-20”) ASC 825- 20 addresses an issuer’s accounting for registration payment arrangements. This pronouncement specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument, should be separately recognized and accounted for as a contingency in accordance with ASC 450-20, “Loss Contingencies” (“ASC 450”). |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain prior year financial statement balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the recorded net loss. The Company reclassified research and development expenses and selling, general, and administrative expenses. |
Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 855-10, “Subsequent Events” (“ASC 855-10”) relating to subsequent events. This guidance establishes principles and requirements for subsequent events. This guidance defines the period after the balance sheet date during which events or transactions that may occur would be required to be disclosed in a company’s financial statements. The Company has evaluated subsequent events up to the date of issuance of this report. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-04 “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Amount at the Reporting Date is Fixed” (“ASU 2013-04”). The guidance in this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 with early adoption permitted. The guidance in this update requires companies to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements as the sum of the amount the entity has a) contractually agreed to pay, and b) any additional amounts that the entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The Company early adopted this guidance in the second quarter of 2013 (Note 3 and Note 13). The FASB has issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this ASU state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of this standard and it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a significant effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. |
