Description of Business | ||
BioPharmX Corporation (“BioPharmX” or the “Company”) is a Silicon Valley-based company, incorporated in Nevada on August 30, 2010, that seeks to provide innovative products through unique, patented platform technologies for pharmaceutical and over-the-counter (“OTC”) applications in the fast growing dermatology and health and wellness markets. | ||
The strategy of the Company begins with obtaining novel, patented, platform technologies through exclusive licensing, joint development or acquisition. BioPharmX then develops platform technologies that can be developed into product lines through specialized formulation and clinical protocol development with a bifurcated market penetration strategy, prescription for the high dose prescription version and OTC consumer for the low dose version. Identifying such technologies requires a strong knowledge of the markets served through technology assessment and evaluation of sell-side and buy-side opportunities through relationships with major pharmaceutical companies. BioPharmX’s products are formulated to address both market pathways to address unmet needs in well-defined, multi-billion dollar markets for licensing or direct commercialization for both pharmaceutical and OTC distribution and sales. | ||
On January 23, 2014, the Company, BioPharmX Inc., a Delaware corporation (“BioPharmX, Inc.”) and stockholders of BioPharmX, Inc. who collectively own 100% of BioPharmX, Inc. (the “BioPharmX, Inc. Stockholders”) entered into and consummated transactions pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement,” such transaction referred to as the “Share Exchange Transaction”), whereby the Company issued to the BioPharmX, Inc. Stockholders an aggregate of 7,025,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 (“Common Stock”), in exchange for 100% of the shares of BioPharmX, Inc. held by the BioPharmX, Inc. Stockholders. The shares of our Common Stock received by the BioPharmX, Inc. Stockholders in the Share Exchange Transaction constituted approximately 77.8% of our then issued and outstanding Common Stock giving effect to the issuance of shares pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. | ||
As a result of the Share Exchange Transaction, BioPharmX, Inc. became a subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization effected by a share exchange. BioPharmX, Inc. is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized. | ||
On March 3, 2014, we completed the name change of the Company from Thompson Designs, Inc. to BioPharmX Corporation. | ||
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | ||
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting and include the accounts of BioPharmX and its subsidiary. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed on March 31, 2014. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, included herein, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. | ||
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s statement of financial position as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s results of operations and its cash flows for each of the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and, cumulatively for the period from August 18, 2011 (date of inception) to March 31, 2014. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. All references to March 31, 2014 or to the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. |

Going Concern Considerations and Management's Plan [Abstract] | ' | |
GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT'S PLAN | ' | |
2 | GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN | |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has not generated revenues and has funded its operating losses through the issuance of convertible notes payable. The Company has a limited operating history and its prospects are subject to risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the industry. These risks include, but are not limited to, the uncertainty of availability of additional financing and the uncertainty of achieving future profitability. Management of the Company intends to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available or on terms which are favorable to the Company. Failure to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. | ||
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $1.2 million and $109,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $2.8 million as of March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1.2 million. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $732,000. While management of the Company believes that it has a plan to fund on-going operations, there is no assurance that its plan will be successfully implemented. | ||
Since 2012, the Company has obtained financing with convertible notes to invite early investors at a 20% discount to the share price in a future offering. Additionally, during April 2014, the Company has issued Series A Preferred stock and warrants in consideration for $1.5 million (see details in Note. 14 -- “Subsequent Events”) and plans to close on additional funds as a result of this offering prior to the end of the second quarter. While the Company has been able to secure a number of investors, there is continued risk in the Company’s ability to attract additional development-stage investors. Without access to continued funds for working capital, the Company may not be able to execute its product strategy and pursue research and development activities on its novel platform technologies. | ||
The discovery of key raw materials to formulate novel products depends on the Company’s ability to identify, negotiate and secure procurement of such materials. This also depends on the Company’s ability to establish comprehensive and long term vendor contracts and relationships. | ||
The Company’s ability to compete and to achieve its product platform strategy depends on its ability to protect its proprietary discoveries and technologies. The Company currently relies on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, trade secret laws and confidentiality agreements to protect its intellectual property rights. The Company also relies upon unpatented know-how and continuing technological innovation. | ||
The Company’s continued operations are dependent upon its ability to identify, recruit and retain adequate management personnel and contractors to perform certain jobs such as research and development, patent generation, regulatory affairs and general administrative functions. The Company requires highly trained professionals of varying levels and experience along with a flexible work force. | ||
Research and development for novel prescription or OTC based products can be very extensive and lengthy in nature; along with the clinical trial process with the Food and Drug Administration which can require significant funding and time consuming patient studies. The competitive landscape could change significantly over the time period to complete targeted product development milestones. The current competition for BioPharmX’s products could also turn into strategic partners or potential acquirers in the future. | ||
The significant risks and uncertainties described above could have a significant negative impact on the financial viability of BioPharmX and raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is working on the Company’s business model to increase working capital by managing its cash flow, securing financing and working towards bringing its first product to market. |

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company issued convertible notes payable to twelve individuals in exchange for $1,020,000 in cash. The Notes carry an interest rate of 6% per annum and mature between January 2015 and March 2017, with principal and interest payable at maturity. | |||||||||||||||
The Notes automatically convert into preferred stock issued in a qualified financing at 80% of the price per share at which such preferred stock is issued in such an offering. Additionally, there is a special conversion that at maturity, unless the Company repays all outstanding principal and interest, the Notes shall be automatically converted into a number of shares of common stock of the Company at 80% of the then fair market value per share. | |||||||||||||||
As a result of this beneficial conversion feature, the Company has recorded $204,000 and $246,000 as a debt discount during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and year ended December 31, 2013. The debt discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest rate method. The amortization expense related to the debt discount was $43,000 and $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively and $87,000 for the cumulative period from August 18, 2011 (date of inception) to March 31, 2014. The note holders as a group also have the right to purchase up to an aggregate of $1.5 million in shares in the event of a subsequent offer of equity securities, see Note 13. |

Series A Preferred Stock | ||
On March 14, 2014, we entered into a Subscription Agreement for a private placement of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A”) and warrants with an accredited investor, whereby we will sell an aggregate of 540,977 shares of our Series A preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share at a per share price of $1.85 for gross proceeds of $1,000,000 and to issue to the investors for no additional consideration warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase 270,489 shares of the Company’s common stock in the aggregate at an exercise price of $3.70 per share upon the closing of Series A. | ||
On March 14, 2014, the Company, the majority shareholders of the Company and the subscriber who is the party to the Subscription Agreement entered into an Investor Rights Agreements, whereby the subscriber was granted certain rights including: (i) right to receive copies of quarterly and annual reports of the Company, (ii) right of inspection of the Company’s properties and records, (iii) right of participation in future securities offerings, (iv) tag-along rights in connection with sales of the Company’s stock by a major shareholder, and (v) board of directors representation rights for the subscribers who purchased at least 500,000 shares of Series A and hold at least 30% of such shares (the “Qualified Subscribers”). The Company made certain covenants under the agreement including: (i) uplisting to NYSE or NASDAQ within three years from the issuance shares of Series A, and (ii) increase of the board of directors to five members including one member to be appointed by the Qualified Subscribers. | ||
On March 20, 2014, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada a Certificate of Designations, Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A (the “Series A Certificate”). Pursuant to the Series A Certificate, there are 3.3 million shares of Series A authorized. | ||
As discussed in Note 13, the first closing of the sale of Series A occurred on April 11, 2014, at which time the Series A was issued and the proceeds were released to the Company. | ||
Equity Incentive Plan | ||
On August 18, 2011, BioPharmX, Inc. adopted the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “BioPharmX, Inc. Plan”) which permits BioPharmX, Inc. to grant stock options to directors, officers or employees of the Company or others to purchase shares of common stock of BioPharmX, Inc. through awards of incentive and nonqualified stock options (“Options”), stock (“Restricted Stock” or “Unrestricted Stock”) and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). On January 23, 2014, immediately after the closing of the Share Exchange Transaction which resulted in a reverse acquisition of the Company by BioPharmX, Inc., the Company adopted the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”), options issued under the BioPharmX, Inc. Plan were cancelled, and options under the 2014 Plan were issued to replace all cancelled BioPharmX, Inc., options. | ||
The Company currently has time-based options outstanding. The time-based options generally vest in two to four years and expire ten years from the date of grant. Total number of shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan is 3,600,000. Shares issued under the Plan will be drawn from authorized and unissued shares or shares now held or subsequently acquired by the Company. At March 31, 2014, there were 994,000 shares available for grant under the Plan. There was no incremental value recorded in relation to this exchange. | ||
There was no stock option activity for the three month period ended March 31, 2014. |

The Company estimates the fair value of time-based stock options, if any, granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Time-based and performance-based options, if any, typically have a ten-year life from date of grant and vesting periods of two to four years. | |||||||||||||
Valuation Assumptions | |||||||||||||
The fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated through the use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model, even though such model was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which differ significantly from the Company’s stock option awards. This model also requires subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. | |||||||||||||
Expected Term | |||||||||||||
The expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. For awards granted subject only to service vesting requirements, the Company utilizes the simplified method for estimating the expected term of the stock-based award, instead of historical exercise data. | |||||||||||||
Expected Volatility | |||||||||||||
The Company uses the historical volatility of the price of the common shares of selected public companies in the biotechnology sector. | |||||||||||||
Expected Dividend | |||||||||||||
The Company has never paid dividends on its common shares and currently does not intend to do so and, accordingly, the dividend yield percentage is zero for all periods. | |||||||||||||
Risk-Free Interest Rate | |||||||||||||
The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model upon the implied yield curve currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term used as the assumption in the model. | |||||||||||||

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] | ' | ||
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | ' | ||
10 | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | ||
The Company recognizes and discloses the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). Each level of input has different levels of subjectivity and difficulty involved in determining fair value. | |||
● | Level 1 - Inputs used to measure fair value are unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Therefore, determining fair value for Level 1 investments generally does not require significant judgment, and the estimation is not difficult. | ||
● | Level 2 - Pricing is provided by third party sources of market information obtained through investment advisors. The Company does not adjust for or apply any additional assumptions or estimates to the pricing information received from its advisors. | ||
● | Level 3 - Inputs used to measure fair value are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions. The determination of fair value for Level 3 instruments involves the most management judgment and subjectivity. | ||
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company held no assets or liabilities with instrument valuations measured on a recurring basis. |

11 | INCOME TAXES | |
No federal income taxes were provided in the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 or for the cumulative period from August 18, 2011 (date of inception) to March 31, 2014 due to the Company’s net losses. State minimum income and franchise taxes are included in general and administrative expenses and were immaterial for the periods presented. The Company evaluates its ability to recover deferred tax assets, in full or in part, by considering all available positive and negative evidence, including past operating results and our forecast of future taxable income on a jurisdictional basis. The Company bases its estimate of current and deferred taxes on the tax laws and rates that are currently in effect in the appropriate jurisdiction. Changes in laws or rates may affect the tax provision as well as the amount of deferred tax assets or liabilities. | ||
Current tax laws impose substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss and credit carry-forwards in the event of an “ownership change,” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. If there should be an ownership change, the Company’s ability to utilize its carry-forwards could be limited. | ||
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company did not have any material unrecognized tax benefits. The 2013 and 2012 tax years remain open for examination by the federal and state authorities. |

Net Loss Per Share [Abstract] | ' | |
NET LOSS PER SHARE | ' | |
12 | NET LOSS PER SHARE | |
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by adding other common stock equivalents, including common stock options, warrants, and convertible notes, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for a period, if dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, 3.7 million and 1.5 million potentially dilutive securities, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect on net loss per share was anti-dilutive. As a result of the net loss for each of the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 there is no dilutive impact to the net loss per share calculation for the periods. |

The Company entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) for a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of shares of our Series A, par value $0.001 per share, and warrants (the “Warrants”) with two accredited investors (the “Investors”) during the first quarter of 2014 and April 1, 2014, respectively, whereby we sold an aggregate of 810,811 shares of Series A at a per share price of $1.85 for gross proceeds of $1,500,000 and issued to the investors for no additional consideration the Warrants to purchase in the aggregate 405,406 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an exercise price of $3.70 per share. The closing of the sale of the Series A and the Warrants under the Subscription Agreements occurred on April 11, 2014 (the “Private Placement”), at which time the Series A was issued and the proceeds were released to the Company | ||
In connection with the Subscription Agreements, the Company, the majority shareholders of the Company and the Investors entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) with the Investors on March 14, 2014 and April 1, 2014, respectively, whereby the Investors were granted certain rights including: (i) right to receive copies of quarterly and annual reports of the Company, (ii) right of inspection of the Company’s properties and records, (iii) right of participation in future securities offerings, (iv) tag-along rights in connection with sales of the Company’s stock by a major shareholder, and (v) board of directors representation rights for the subscribers who purchased at least 500,000 shares of Series A and hold at least 30% of such shares (the “Qualified Subscribers”). The Company made certain covenants under the agreement including: (i) uplisting to NYSE or NASDAQ within three years from the issuance shares of Series A, and (ii) increase of the board of directors to five members including one member to be appointed by the Qualified Subscribers. | ||
As a result of the closing of the Private Placement, the 6% secured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2.25 million previously issued were automatically converted into 1,520,280 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”). |
