Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented, are reflected in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2023. 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 in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management considers many factors in developing the estimates and assumptions that are used in the preparation of these financial statements. Management must apply significant judgment in this process. In addition, other factors may affect estimates, including expected business and operational changes, sensitivity and volatility associated with the assumptions used in developing estimates, and whether historical trends are expected to be representative of future trends. The estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates in the period these variances become known. Estimates are used in the following areas, among others: variable consideration associated with revenue recognition, stock-based compensation expense, accrued expenses, and the valuation allowance included in the deferred income tax calculation. Segment and Geographical Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company and the Company’s chief operating decision maker view the Company’s operations and manage its business in one operating segment, which is the business of developing and commercializing pharmaceutical products. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments Cash and cash equivalents consist of money market funds and bank deposits. Cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. Investments with maturities of less than one year are classified as short-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and consist of commercial paper, corporate bonds, and U.S. government agency securities. Investments with maturities of greater than one year are classified as long-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and consist of corporate bonds and government agency securities. Accrued interest on investments is also classified as short-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As our entire investment portfolio is considered available for use in current operations, we classify all investments as available-for-sale securities. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Any premium arising at purchase is amortized to the earliest call date and any discount arising at purchase is accreted to maturity. Amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts are recorded in interest and other income, net, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined 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. There is a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in determining fair value by their reliability and preferred use, as follows: • Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. • Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. To the extent that a valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable, or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized within Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. There have been no significant changes to the valuation methods utilized by the Company during the periods presented. There have been no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 in any periods presented. The carrying amounts of financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, net, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, approximate fair value, primarily due to their short maturities. Our available-for-sale, short-term and long-term investments are considered to be Level 2 financial instruments. Revenue Recognition The Company sells VYJUVEK to a limited number of specialty pharmacies (“SPs”) that mix the medication and administer it to patients in the patient’s home by a healthcare professional and a single specialty distributor (“SD”), that distributes VYJUVEK to hospitals and outpatient clinics where patients are administered the medication at a healthcare professional’s office. The Company recognizes product revenue under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Under Topic 606, the Company is required to complete the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration, if any; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the product, which occurs at a point in time, upon delivery to the customer. Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring VYJUVEK and is generally based upon a list or fixed price less allowances for returns, rebates and discounts. The Company’s payment terms are generally 30 to 60 days from the invoice date. Variable Consideration Product revenues is recorded at the net sales price, or transaction price, upon delivery and transfer of control to the customer, and includes an estimate of variable consideration, which results from discounts, rebates, and returns that are offered within contracts between the Company and its customers. – Prompt Pay Discounts: As an incentive for prompt payment, the Company offers a cash discount to customers. The Company estimates accrued prompt pay discounts using the most likely amount method. The Company expects that all eligible customers will comply with the contractual terms to earn the discount. The Company records the discount as an allowance against accounts receivable, net and a reduction of revenue. – Government Rebates: The Company participates in certain government rebate programs including Medicaid. The Company estimates accrued government rebates using the expected value method. The Company accrues estimated rebates based on estimated percentages of VYJUVEK prescribed to qualified patients, estimated rebate percentages and estimated levels of inventory in the distribution channel that will be prescribed to qualified patients and records the rebates as a reduction of revenue. Accrued government rebates are recorded as a reduction of revenue and are included in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. – Commercial Rebates: The Company participates in certain commercial rebate programs. Under these rebate programs, the Company pays a rebate to the commercial entity or third-party administrator of the program. Accrued commercial rebates are estimated using the expected value method. The Company accrues estimated rebates based on contract prices, estimated percentages of VYJUVEK that will be prescribed to qualified patients and estimated levels of inventory in the distribution channel. Accrued commercial rebates are recorded as a reduction of revenue and are included in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. – Copay Assistance: The Company provides copay assistance to qualified patients, helping them meet copay obligations to their insurance provider. The Company reimburses pharmacies for this discount through third-party vendors. The Company estimates copay assistance costs using the expected value method. The estimate is based on contract prices, estimated percentages of VYJUVEK that will be prescribed to qualified patients, average assistance paid based on reporting from third-party vendors and estimated levels of inventory in the distribution channel. Copay assistance costs are recorded as reductions to revenue and are accrued in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. – Returns: The Company offers SPs and SDs limited return rights relating to product damage or defect and based on these provisions, the Company believes that there will be minimal returns. Variable consideration is estimated and reduces the transaction price to reflect the Company’s best estimate of the amount of consideration to which the Company is entitled based on the terms of the contracts and are recorded in the same period the related product revenues is recognized. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is considered probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates in the period these variances become known. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold includes direct and indirect costs related to the manufacturing of VYJUVEK. These costs consist of manufacturing costs, personnel costs including stock-based compensation, facility costs, and other indirect overhead costs. Cost of goods sold may also include period costs related to certain manufacturing services and inventory adjustment charges. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable is recorded net of allowances for prompt payment discounts, returns, and credit losses. The Company estimates an allowance for credit losses by considering factors such as credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. As of September 30, 2023, the credit profiles for the Company’s customer was deemed to be in good standing, and as such an allowance for credit losses was not recorded. Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments, and accounts receivable, net. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalent balances with high-quality financial institutions and, consequently, the Company believes that such funds are subject to minimal credit risk. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets are in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any credit losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on these funds. The Company’s accounts receivable, net and marketable securities, which primarily consist of U.S. government agency securities and treasuries, equity securities, corporate bonds and commercial paper, potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. The Company had one customer for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and no product revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of loss. Inventories The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with products when future economic benefit is expected to be realized. These costs consist of raw materials, manufacturing-related costs, personnel costs including stock-based compensation, facility costs, and other indirect overhead costs. Prior to receiving FDA approval for VYJUVEK in May 2023, the Company expensed costs related to inventory for clinical and pre-commercial purposes directly to research and development expense. Following the FDA’s approval of VYJUVEK, the Company began capitalizing inventory related to commercialized products held for sale, in-process of production for sale, and raw materials to be used in the manufacturing of inventory. The Company values its inventories at the lower-of-cost and net realizable value, on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. The Company adjusts the net realizable value of any excess, obsolete or unsalable inventories in the period in which an impairment is identified. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no inventory impairment adjustments. As of September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $5.3 million of inventory, consisting of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods within inventory on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Property and Equipment, net Property and equipment, net, is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed to operations as incurred, while costs of major additions and betterments are capitalized. Upon disposal, the related cost and accumulated depreciation is removed and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which are as follows: Buildings and building improvements 7 - 47 years Computer equipment and software 3 - 7 years Manufacturing equipment 3 - 20 years Laboratory equipment 3 - 15 years Furniture and fixtures 3 - 7 years Leasehold improvements lesser of useful life or remaining life of lease The Company reviews the estimated useful lives of its property and equipment on a continuing basis. In evaluating the useful lives, the Company considers how long assets will remain functionally effective, whether the technology continues to be relevant and considers other competitive and economic factors. If the assessment indicates that the assets will be used for a shorter or longer period than previously anticipated, the useful life of the assets is adjusted, resulting in a change in estimate. Changes in estimates are accounted for on a prospective basis by depreciating the current carrying values of the assets over their revised remaining useful lives. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the asset is placed in service. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates long-lived assets for potential impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. We review the recoverability of the net book value of long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances indicate ("triggering events") that the net book value of an asset may not be recoverable. In cases where a triggering event occurs and undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the net book value, we recognize an impairment loss equal to an amount by which the net book value exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The Company has not identified any triggering events or recognized any impairment losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Leases The Company accounts for its lease agreements in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 842, Leases . Right-of-use lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and the lease liabilities represent the commitment to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use lease assets and obligations are recognized based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s existing lease agreements do not provide an implicit rate and as the Company does not have any external borrowings, the Company has used an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease expense is recognized in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. In addition, the Company also has made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less from its condensed consolidated balance sheets and to account for lease and non-lease components of its operating leases as a single component. Research and Development Expenses Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred in performing research and development activities. These costs include employee compensation costs, facilities and overhead, preclinical and clinical activities, clinical manufacturing costs, contract management services, regulatory and other related costs. The Company estimates contract research and manufacturing expenses based on the services performed pursuant to contracts with research organizations and manufacturing organizations that manufacture materials used in the Company’s ongoing preclinical and clinical studies. Non-refundable advanced payments for goods or services to be received in the future for use in research and development activities are capitalized within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The capitalized amounts are expensed as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed. In accruing service fees, the Company estimates the time period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period. These estimates are based on communications with third-party service providers and the Company’s estimates of accrued expenses using information available at each balance sheet date. If the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies from the estimate, the Company will adjust the accrual accordingly. Stock-Based Compensation Expense The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions of FASB, ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"), to account for stock-based compensation. Compensation costs related to equity awards granted are based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments, including grants of stock options and restricted stock, to be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based on their grant-date fair values. Compensation expense for stock options, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock units is recognized on a straight-line basis based on the grant-date fair value over the associated service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term. Compensation expense for performance-based restricted stock units is recognized for the awards that are probable of vesting over the service period of the award. On a quarterly basis, management estimates the probable number of performance-based restricted stock units that would vest until such time that the ultimate achievement of the performance criteria are known. The Company estimates the fair value of its stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including: (i) the expected stock price volatility; (ii) the expected term of the award; (iii) the risk-free interest rate; and (iv) expected dividends. The Company estimates stock price volatility by using its own historical data. The expected term of the Company’s stock options is estimated using the “simplified” method, whereby the expected term equals the arithmetic mean of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the option. The risk-free interest rates are based on U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity date commensurate with the expected term of the associated award. The Company has never paid and does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the financial statements is based on awards for which service conditions are expected to be satisfied. Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions from non-owner sources. Unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation are components of other comprehensive gains or losses and are presented net of taxes. We record reclassifications from other comprehensive gains or losses to interest and other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations related to realized gains on sales of available-for-sale securities. The Company reviews its securities quarterly to determine whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The Company determined that there were no other-than-temporary impairments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. There were no recently adopted accounting pronouncements that had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, and no recently issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. |
