Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary, Angion Biomedica Europe Limited, which was dissolved on March 16, 2021, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Angion Pty Ltd., which was established on August 22, 2019. The Company established Angion Pty Ltd., an Australian subsidiary, for the purpose of qualifying for research credits for studies conducted in Australia. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 17, 2023 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”). There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Unaudited Interim Financial Information The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and comprehensive loss, and cash flows. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this Quarterly Report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. Segments Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business as one operating segment. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the useful lives of long-lived assets, the measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals for research and development activities, the valuation of its notes receivable, income taxes and revenue recognition. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other relevant assumptions that are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Concentrations of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk Cash and cash equivalents are financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk. The Company maintains its cash equivalents in securities and money market funds with original maturities less than three months. On March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), at which the Company maintained substantially all of its cash and cash equivalents in multiple accounts and in amounts exceeding federally insured limits, was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. The failure of SVB exposed the Company to liquidity and credit risk prior to the completion of the FDIC resolution of SVB in a manner that fully protects all depositors. At the end of March 2023, Angion transferred substantially all of its cash and cash equivalents from SVB to an asset manager. If the Company is unable to access its cash and cash equivalents as needed, its financial position and ability to operate its business will be adversely affected. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of loss. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s cash equivalents were held in institutions in the United States and include deposits in a money market fund which were unrestricted as to withdrawal or use. Fair Value Measurement Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is determined using the principles of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement . Fair value is described as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes and defines the inputs to valuation techniques as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets. Level 2: Inputs are observable for the asset or liability either directly or through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs. The inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability are categorized within levels of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Notes Receivable at Fair Value As permitted under ASC 825, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825"), the Company has elected the fair value option for the notes receivable (“Notes”) issued to Elicio. In accordance with ASC 825, the Company recognizes these Notes at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument, but it is irrevocable. As a result of applying the fair value option, direct costs and fees related to the issuance of the Notes were recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as incurred and not deferred. The estimated fair value of the Notes is determined by utilizing a scenario-based analysis considering possible outcomes available to the holders of the Notes. See Note 4. Accrued interest receivable for the Notes has been included in the change in fair value of the Notes in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Research and Development Research and development costs include, but are not limited to, payroll and personnel expenses, laboratory supplies, preclinical studies, compound manufacturing costs, consulting costs and allocated overhead, including rent, equipment, depreciation and utilities. Research and development costs may be offset by research and development refundable tax rebates received by the Company’s wholly-owned Australian subsidiary. The Company has agreements with various Contract Research Organizations (“CROs") and third-party vendors. Research and development accruals of amounts due to the CRO are estimated based on the level of services performed, progress of the studies, including the phase or completion of events, and contracted costs. The estimated costs of research and development provided, but not yet invoiced, are included in accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Payments made to CROs under such arrangements in advance of the performance of the related services are recorded as prepaid expenses and other current assets until the services are rendered. The Company makes judgments and estimates in determining the accrued expenses balance in each reporting period. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accrued expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company has not experienced any material differences between accrued costs and actual costs incurred. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share excludes the potential impact of common stock options, warrants and unvested shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units because their effect would be anti-dilutive due to the Company's net loss. Since the Company had net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, basic and diluted net loss per common share are the same. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU No. 2016-13), which requires an entity to utilize a new impairment model known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to estimate its lifetime “expected credit loss” and record an allowance that, when deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets and certain other instruments, including but not limited to, available-for-sale debt securities. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct write-down to the security. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13 on January 1, 2023 and the adoption of the standard had no material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |
