Note 1. Organization, Use of Estimates and Basis of Presentation | |||||||
Champions Oncology, Inc. (the “Company”), is engaged in the development and sale of advanced technology solutions and products to personalize the development and use of oncology drugs. The Company’s TumorGraft Technology Platform is a novel approach to personalizing cancer care based upon the implantation of human tumors in immune-deficient mice. The Company uses this technology, in conjunction with related services, to offer solutions for two consumer groups: Personalized Oncology Solutions (“POS”) and Translational Oncology Solutions (“TOS”). POS assists physicians in developing personalized treatment options for their cancer patients through tumor specific data obtained from drug panels and related personalized oncology services. The Company’s TOS business offers a technology platform to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies using proprietary TumorGraft studies, which the Company believes may be predictive of how drugs may perform in clinical settings. | |||||||
The Company has three operating subsidiaries: Champions Oncology (Israel), Limited, Champions Biotechnology U.K., Limited and Champions Oncology Singapore, PTE LTD. For the three months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no material revenues earned by these subsidiaries. | |||||||
The Company’s foreign subsidiaries functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in earnings. The Company is subject to foreign exchange rate fluctuations in connection with the Company’s international operations. | |||||||
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or the SEC. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. All figures are presented in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share data, or except where expressly stated otherwise. Certain information related to the Company’s organization, significant accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or GAAP has been condensed or omitted. The accounting policies followed in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2014, as filed on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and the presentations and disclosures herein are adequate when read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2014. | |||||||
The preparation of 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | |||||||
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares (including redeemable common stock) outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares (including redeemable common stock) outstanding for the period, plus the dilutive effect of common stock purchase warrants, stock options and restricted stock units using the treasury stock method. Contingently issuable shares are included in the calculation of basic earnings per share when all contingencies surrounding the issuance of the shares are met and the shares are issued or issuable. Contingently issuable shares are included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as of the beginning of the reporting period if, at the end of the reporting period, all contingencies surrounding the issuance of the shares are satisfied or would be satisfied if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period. Due to the net losses for the three months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013, basic and diluted loss per share were the same, as the effect of potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive. | |||||||
The following table reflects the total potential share-based instruments outstanding at July 31, 2014 and 2013 that could have an effect on the future computation of dilution per common share: | |||||||

Total common stock equivalents | 26,658,954 | 17,463,122 | |||||
Liquidity | |||||||
Our liquidity needs have typically arisen from the funding of our research and development programs and the launch of new products, working capital requirements, and other strategic initiatives. In the past, we have met these cash requirements through our sales of products and services, cash and cash equivalents, working capital management, and proceeds from certain private placements of our securities. As of July 31, 2014, we had working capital of $1.1 million and cash and cash equivalents on hand of $3.1 million. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents on hand at July 31, 2014 are adequate to fund our operations through at least December 31, 2014. However, in order for us to continue as a going concern beyond this point, we need to obtain capital from external sources. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, or delay or eliminate, some of our research and development and other activities, which could harm our financial condition and operating results. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could negatively impact our growth plans and our financial condition and results of operations. Additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of our common stock and debt financing, if available, may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants and/or financial ratios that restrict our ability to operate our business. | |||||||

The service-based conditions of these options provide for vesting to occur monthly over a period of three years. Since the straight-line method is not available for performance or market-based share-based payments, the 3,000,000 performance-based options will be expensed on an accelerated basis once the Company determines it is probable that the performance-based conditions will be met. | ||||||||||||||||
Stock Purchase Warrants | ||||||||||||||||
As of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014, the Company had warrants outstanding for the purchase of 3,276,667 shares of its common stock, all of which were exercisable. Of these warrants, 1,266,667 were issued in connection with the April 2011 Private Placement and 1,860,000 were issued in connection with the January 2013 Private Placement and are accounted for as liabilities as further discussed in Note 4. The remaining 150,000 warrants, with an exercise price of $1.00, are accounted for as equity instruments and expired on July 31, 2014. Activity related to these warrants, which expire at various dates through April 2016, is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands): | ||||||||||||||||

The warrants issued in connection with both the April 2011 Private Placement and January 2013 Private Placement contain certain exercise price reset provisions. Under these provisions, the exercise price of the warrants may be adjusted downward should the Company have future sales of its Common Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Per Share Price (as such term is defined in the April 2011 Private Placement and January 2013 Private Placement). These exercise price reset provisions resulted in a downward adjustment to the exercise price of the warrants issued in the April 2011 Private Placement from $0.90 to $0.50. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company has accounted for the warrants issued in connection with the April 2011 Private Placement and January 2013 Private Placement as a liability based on the exercise price reset provisions described above. This liability, which is recorded at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, totaled $0.8 million at the time of the close of the January 2013 Private Placement Agreement. As of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014, the fair value of these warrants was $1.86 million and $2.01 million, respectively. The change in fair value of these warrants has been, and will be, recognized as other income (expense) on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of these warrants was calculated by the Monte Carlo simulation valuation method. Assumptions used to calculate the fair value of these warrants were as follows: | ||||||||||||||||
July 31, | April 30, | |||||||||||||||
2014 | 2014 | |||||||||||||||
Expected term in years | 1.7 - 3.5 | 1.9 - 3.7 | ||||||||||||||
Risk-free interest rates | 0.57%- 1.23% | 0.4%- 1.17% | ||||||||||||||
Volatility | 92.9%- 107.2% | 95%- 113% | ||||||||||||||
Dividend yield | 0% | 0% | ||||||||||||||
The Company estimated the volatility based upon the applicable look-back periods or historical volatility observed for the Company. For the Risk-free rate the Company used the yield on a T-bill with maturity closest to the expected time to the warrant expiration. | ||||||||||||||||
In addition to the assumptions above, the Company also takes into consideration whether or not the Company would participate in another round of financing and if that financing is registered or not and what that stock price would be for the financing at that time. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company will continue to adjust the warrant liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise of the warrants, at which time the liability will be reclassified to stockholders' equity, or expiration of the warrants. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company has granted demand registration rights in connection with the investment in common shares and the common shares underlying the warrants for both the April 2011 Private Placement and January 2013 Private Placement. These rights include the requirement of the Company to file certain registration statements within a specified time period and to have these registration statements declared effective within a specified time period. If the Company is not able to comply with these registration requirements, the Company will be required to pay cash penalties equal to 1.0% of the aggregate Purchase Price paid by the investors for each 30-day period in which a Registration Default, as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement, exists. These penalties are subject to a 10% limit of the aggregate Purchase Price paid by the investors. The Company may become subject to these penalty provisions if it fails to have a registration statement for the common shares declared effective, or to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement. The total amount of potential penalties under this registration payment arrangement ranges from $50,000 to $130,000 for each 30-day period in which a registration default exists; however, as of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014, and through the date of this filing, the Company does not believe these penalties to be probable and accordingly, has not established an accrual for such registration payment arrangements. | ||||||||||||||||

· | One University Plaza, Suite 307, Hackensack, New Jersey 07601, which, since November 2011, serves as the Company’s corporate headquarters. The lease expires in November 2016. The Company recognized $21,000 and $17,000 of rental costs relative to this lease for the three months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | ||
· | 855 North Wolfe Street, Suite 619, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, which consists of laboratories and office space where the Company conducts operations related to its primary service offerings. This lease expired in June 2014. The Company is currently in the process of renewing the lease.

· | 17 Hatidhar Street, Ra’anana, Israel, which served as office headquarters for Champions Oncology, Israel. This lease expired in July 2013 and was not renewed. Following the expiration of this lease, the Company utilizes office space on a limited basis from one of its stockholders. The fair value of rental costs associated with the new office space is immaterial. The Company recognized nil and $5,600 of rental costs relative to this lease for the three months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | ||
· | 57 Mohamed Sultan Road, Singapore, which serves as office headquarters for Champions Oncology, Singapore. The lease expires in January 2015. We incurred $1,300 and $1,400 of rental expense for the three months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | ||
· | 450 East 29th Street, New York, New York, 10016, which is a laboratory at which we implant tumors. We incurred $11,600 of rental expense for the three months ended July 31, 2014.

Legal Matters | |||
The Company is not currently party to any legal matters to its knowledge. The Company is not aware of any other matters that would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. | |||
Registration Payment Arrangements | |||
The Company has entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement in connection with the April 2011 Private Placement and January 2013 Private Placement and is discussed more fully in Note 4. This Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement contains provisions that may call for the Company to pay penalties in certain circumstances. This registration payment arrangement primarily relates to the Company’s ability to file a registration statement within a particular time period, have a registration statement declared effective within a particular time period and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for a particular time period. The Company does not believe it is probable that penalty payments will be made for the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement discussed in Note 4 and, accordingly, has not accrued for such potential penalties as of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014. | |||

Under the agreement, Teva agreed to pay an upfront payment and, under certain conditions, pay the Company various amounts upon achieving certain milestones, based on the performance of the compounds in preclinical testing and dependent upon testing the compound in clinical settings and obtaining FDA approval. In addition, Teva agreed to pay the Company royalties on any commercialized products developed under the agreement. This agreement terminated a prior collaborative agreement between Cephalon, Inc. a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teva, and the Company. For the three months ended July 31, 2014, revenue of $322,000 was recognized related to this agreement. | |

Note 8. Fair Value | |||||
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, deposits and other receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value based on the liquidity or the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value hierarchy promulgated by GAAP consists of three levels: | |||||
· | Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; | ||||
· | Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and | ||||
· | Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use. | ||||
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter. The Company has one liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which are warrants that were issued in connection with private placements of the Company’s securities that are discussed more fully in Note 3. As of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014, these warrants had an estimated fair value of $1,856,000 and $2,011,000, respectively, which was calculated by the Monte Carlo simulation valuation method using level three inputs. The Company has no assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and there were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the three months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013. | |||||
The following table presents information about our warrants liability, which was our only financial instrument measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2014 (in thousands): | |||||

Note 9. Business Segment Information | ||||||||||||||
The Company operates in two segments, POS and TOS. The accounting policies of the Company’s segments are the same as those described in Note 2 of the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2014, as filed on Form 10-K. The Company evaluates performance of its segments based on profit or loss from operations before stock compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, gain on sale of assets, special charges or benefits, and income taxes (“segment profit”). Management uses segment profit information for internal reporting and control purposes and considers it important in making decisions regarding the allocation of capital and other resources, risk assessment, and employee compensation, among other matters.
