Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Organization and Significant Accounting Policies | Business BioLife Solutions, Inc. ("BioLife, us, we, our, or the Company) is a developer, manufacturer and marketer of proprietary clinical grade cell and tissue hypothermic storage and cryopreservation freeze media and a related cloud hosted biologistics cold chain management app for smart shippers. Our proprietary HypoThermosol® and CryoStor® platform of solutions are highly valued in the biobanking, drug discovery, and regenerative medicine markets. Our biopreservation media products are serum-free and protein-free, fully defined, and are formulated to reduce preservation-induced cell damage and death. Our enabling technology provides commercial companies and clinical researchers significant improvement in shelf life and post-preservation viability and function of cells, tissues, and organs. Additionally, for our direct, distributor, and contract customers, we perform custom formulation, fill, and finish services. Recent Developments Reverse Stock Split On January 17, 2014, our Board of Directors approved an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split by a ratio of 1 for 14, with no reduction in the number of shares of common stock that were previously authorized in our certificate of incorporation. The reverse stock split was effective on January 29, 2014. Unless otherwise noted, all share and per share data in these consolidated financial statements give effect to the 1-for-14 reverse stock split of our common stock. Public Offering of Units On March 25, 2014, we closed a registered public offering of 3,588,878 units for gross proceeds of $15,432,175. Each $4.30 unit consisted of one share of the Companys common stock and one warrant, each warrant exercisable for seven years to purchase one share of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $4.75. Net of placement agent fees of $1,211,734 and offering costs of $624,211, we received net proceeds of $13,596,230. Of the gross proceeds, $9.1 million was allocated to common stock and $6.3 million was allocated to warrants, based on relative fair values. Conversion of Notes and Interest to Equity Pursuant to note conversion agreements with WAVI Holding AG and Taurus4757 GmbH (the Note Holders), concurrently with the closing of the Companys public offering of units, the Company converted approximately $14.3 million of indebtedness, including accrued interest, to the Note Holders into equity, issuing to the Note Holders an aggregate of 3,321,405 units having terms substantially similar to the public offering units. In connection with the note conversion, the Companys $14.3 million indebtedness to the Note Holders under the terms of the Companys previously disclosed facility agreements was extinguished, all remaining unamortized deferred finance costs of $101,852 were recorded to additional paid in capital, and the Note Holders agreed to release all security interests. Of the total conversion amount, $8.4 million was allocated to common stock and $5.8 million was allocated to warrants, based on relative fair values. Listing of Common Stock on NASDAQ Capital Market On March 26, 2014, our common stock was listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol BLFS. biologistex Joint Venture On September 29, 2014, we entered into an LLC Agreement with SAVSU to create biologistex, a 20-year joint venture for the purpose of acquiring, developing, maintaining, owning, operating, marketing and selling an integrated platform of a cloud-based information service and precision thermal shipping products based on SAVSUs next generation evo Smart Shippers. The joint venture vehicle, biologistex CCM, LLC, is structured as a Delaware limited liability company. We will make a capital contribution of $2.4 million in such amounts and at such times as will be necessary for the purpose of funding biologistexs purchase of products from SAVSU under a separate Supply and Distribution Agreement. SAVSU contributed exclusive distribution rights to the Smart Shippers under the separate Supply and Distribution Agreement. As at December 31, 2015, our remaining capital contribution commitment is $2.2 million. We were also required to pay SAVSU $1 million in consideration of SAVSUs participation in biologistex. As at December 31, 2015, we have satisfied this obligation in full. The Company and SAVSU are the only members of biologistex, holding 52% and 48%, respectively, of the outstanding units. Distributions of net cash flow, if any, are to be made in proportion to the members ownership of units. On September 29, 2014, biologistex and SAVSU also entered into the Supply and Distribution Agreement whereby biologistex became the exclusive, worldwide distributor of Smart Shippers. Pursuant to the Supply and Distribution Agreement, biologistex agrees to purchase a minimum number of Smart Shippers for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.6 million. Under the terms of the agreement, SAVSU must fulfill all obligations required of it to permit biologistex to make the products available for marketing, sales and acceptance of customer orders. The Supply and Distribution Agreement has an initial term of 20 years unless terminated early by its terms. On September 29, 2014, the Company and biologistex also entered into a Services Agreement whereby we will provide services to biologistex related to operations, sales, marketing, administration and development of a cloud-based software system for tracking and managing the products. The Services Agreement has an initial term of 20 years unless terminated early by its terms. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, we agreed to manage biologistex to achieve certain minimum sales targets. biologistex will pay us monthly for expenses incurred and certain overhead expenses. To date, we have funded biologistexs obligations to us and certain of biologistexs other obligations as an interest-free, inter-company loan to biologistex. We anticipate that we may be required to continue funding such obligations on an ongoing basis until biologistex has achieved revenues sufficient to pay such expenses. As at December 31, 2015, the principal balance of this loan, which is eliminated upon consolidation, is $3.5 million. We launched the biologistex cold-chain management service including unlimited use of the evo Smart Shipper and the integrated track and trace cloud-based web application, mybiologistex.com, during the third quarter of 2015, with deployment of shippers to customers and access to the biologistex web app for validation. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Net loss per share Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents are excluded for the years ending December 31, 2015 and 2014 since the effect is anti-dilutive due to the Companys net losses. Common stock equivalents include stock options and warrants. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding, and the potentially dilutive securities excluded from loss per share computations because they are antidilutive, are as follows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014: 2015 2014 Basic and diluted weighted average common stock shares outstanding 12,177,396 10,447,030 Potentially dilutive securities excluded from loss per share computations: Common stock options 2,555,263 1,390,770 Common stock purchase warrants 7,195,997 7,428,141 Cash and cash equivalents Cash equivalents consist primarily of interest-bearing money market accounts. We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances that may exceed federally insured limits. We do not believe that this results in any significant credit risk. No cash was paid for either interest expense or income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Investments The Company's investments consist primarily of commercial paper, corporate debt, and other debt securities. Investments are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of shareholders' equity. The realized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are included in other income and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Realized gains and losses are calculated based on the specific identification method. The Company monitors its investment portfolio for impairment on a periodic basis. When the amortized cost basis of an investment exceeds its fair value and the decline in value is determined to be an other-than-temporary decline, and when the Company does not intend to sell the debt security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the debt securities prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company records an impairment charge in the amount of the credit loss and the balance, if any, to other comprehensive income (loss). Inventories Inventories represent biopreservation solutions, raw materials used to make biopreservation solutions and finished evo Smart Shippers, and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Accounts receivable Accounts receivable are stated at principal amount, do not bear interest, and are generally unsecured. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts based on an evaluation of customer account balances past due ninety days from the date of invoicing. Accounts considered uncollectible are charged against the established allowance. Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to ten years. Intangible asset Our intangible asset represents exclusive distribution rights to the Smart Containers associated with our biologistex CCM, LLC joint venture discussed previously. The intangible asset was recorded at its fair value of $2,215,385 at the date contributed. We will review the intangible asset for impairment whenever an impairment indicator exists. We will assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such asset will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, we will recognize an impairment loss based on any excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. We did not recognize any intangible asset impairment charges in 2015 or 2014. We will amortize this asset over its estimated useful life of 20 years, the life of the distribution agreement with SAVSU with expected amortization of $0.1 million per year. Amortization is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2016 with the initial commercial shipments of the Smart Containers. Amortization is based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset will be consumed or on a straight-line basis when the consumption pattern is not apparent. Internal Use Software We capitalize costs associated with the development of the biologistex web and mobile applications, which we consider internal-use software. Capitalization of costs began in the first quarter of 2015, when we reached the application development stage. Such capitalized costs include external direct costs utilized in developing or obtaining the applications and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees, who are directly associated with the development of the applications. Capitalization will cease once we have completed all substantial testing, at which time the applications are complete and ready for their intended use. In 2015, we capitalized $1.7 million in costs related to the development of the biologistex web and mobile applications. Of this amount, $0.3 million was unpaid as of December 31, 2015. Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, will be expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized. Capitalized costs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful life of three years once the software has been commercially deployed. Deferred rent For our operating leases, we recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases and, accordingly, we record the difference between cash rent payments and the recognition of rent expense as a deferred rent liability. Landlord-funded leasehold improvements, to the extent the improvements are not landlord property upon lease termination, are also recorded as deferred rent liabilities and are amortized as a reduction of rent expense over the non-cancelable term of the related operating lease. Revenue recognition We recognize product revenue, including shipping and handling charges billed to customers, upon shipment of product when title and risk of loss pass to customers. Shipping and handling costs are classified as part of cost of product sales. We may also receive fees from our contract manufacturing customers for validation of the manufacturing process. This typically occurs prior to production for those customers and revenue is recognized upon successful completion of all obligations related to the validation process. Income taxes We account for income taxes using an asset and liability method which generally requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax effects of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax effects of differences between tax bases of assets and liabilities, and financial reporting amounts, based upon enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. We evaluate the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets and provide an allowance where, in managements opinion, it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized. We have not recorded any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or any related interest and penalties. Our tax returns are open to audit for years ending December 31, 2012 to 2015. Advertising Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $69,091 and $19,584 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Operating segments As described above, our activities are directed in the life sciences field of biopreservation products and services. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 this is the Companys only operating unit and segment. Concentrations of credit risk and business risk In 2015 and 2014, we derived approximately 10% and 11%, respectively, of our revenue from our relationship with one distributor of our products. In 2014, we also derived 18% of our revenue from our relationship with one contract-manufacturing customer. Revenue from customers located in foreign countries represented 21% and 16% of total revenue during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Research and development Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Stock Based Compensation We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model as our method of valuation for stock option awards. Restricted stock unit grants are valued at the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation expense is based on the value of the portion of the stock-based award that will vest during the period, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Our determination of the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected life of the award, expected stock price volatility over the term of the award and historical and projected exercise behaviors. The estimation of share-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual or updated results differ from our current estimates, such amounts will be recorded in the period estimates are revised. Although the fair value of stock option awards is determined in accordance with authoritative guidance, the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results. Share-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the applicable requisite service period based on the fair value of such share-based awards on the grant date. The fair value of options at the date of grant is determined under the Black-Scholes option pricing model. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the following weighted-average assumptions were used: Assumptions 2015 2014 Risk-free rate 1.77 % 2.01 % Annual rate of dividends Historical volatility 105.20 % 105.20 % Expected life 7.0 years 7.0 years The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. We do not anticipate declaring dividends in the foreseeable future. Volatility was based on historical data. We utilize the simplified method in determining option lives. The simplified method is used due to the fact that we have had significant structural changes in our business such that our historical exercise data may not provide a reasonable basis to estimate option lives. We recognize compensation expense for only the portion of options that are expected to vest. Therefore, management applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is derived from historical employee termination data. The estimated forfeiture rate applied for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was 7.00%. If the actual number of forfeitures differs from those estimated by management, additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods. Our stock price volatility, option lives and expected forfeiture rates involve managements best estimates at the time of such determination, all of which impact the fair value of the option calculated under the Black-Scholes methodology and, ultimately, the expense that will be recognized over the life of the option. Recent accounting pronouncements In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities: Topic 825 (ASU 2016-01). The updated guidance enhances the reporting model for financial instruments, which includes amendments to address aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. Adoption of ASU 2016-01 is required for fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2016-01 on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes: Topic 740 (ASU 2015-17). Current GAAP requires the deferred taxes for each jurisdiction to be presented as a net current asset or liability and net noncurrent asset or liability. This requires a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction analysis based on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which the underlying temporary differences relate, or, in the case of loss or credit carryforwards, based on the period in which the attribute is expected to be realized. Any valuation allowance is then required to be allocated on a pro rata basis, by jurisdiction, between current and noncurrent deferred tax assets. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. As a result, each jurisdiction will now only have one net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. The guidance does not change the existing requirement that only permits offsetting within a jurisdiction. Adoption of ASU 2015-17 is required for fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, and either prospective or retrospective application is permitted. Early adoption of ASU 2015-17 is permitted. At the time of adoption, all of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, will be classified as noncurrent on its Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company does not plan to early adopt ASU 2015-17. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory: Topic 330 (ASU 2015-11). Topic 330 currently requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires that inventory measured using either the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost method be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Adoption of ASU 2015-11 is required for fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. On May 28, 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. We have not yet selected a transition method and we are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. With the exception of the new revenue standard discussed above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective that have significance, or potential significance, to our Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurement | In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," (ASC Topic 820), the Company measures its cash and cash equivalents and short term investments at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier value fair hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Level 3 Unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company does not have liabilities that are measured at fair value. The following tables set forth the Company's financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy: As of December 31, 2015 Level 1 Level 2 Total Bank deposits $ 440,809 $ $ 440,809 Money market funds 1,732,449 1,732,449 Cash and cash equivalents 2,173,258 2,173,258 Corporate debt securities 1,401,453 1,401,453 Commercial paper 249,888 249,888 Short term investments 1,651,341 1,651,341 Total $ 3,824,599 $ $ 3,824,599 As of December 31, 2014 Level 1 Level 2 Total Bank deposits $ 972,891 $ $ 972,891 Money market funds 1,565,867 1,565,867 Cash and cash equivalents 2,538,758 2,538,758 Corporate debt securities 6,799,702 6,799,702 Commercial paper 599,934 599,934 Short term investments 7,399,636 7,399,636 Total $ 9,938,394 $ $ 9,938,394 The fair values of bank deposits, money market funds, corporate debt securities and commercial paper classified as Level 1 were derived from quoted market prices as active markets for these instruments exist. The Company has no level 2 or level 3 financial assets. The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Stock-based Compensation | Stock Compensation Plans Our stock-based compensation programs are long-term retention programs that are intended to attract, retain and provide incentives for talented employees, officers and directors, and to align stockholder and employee interests. We have the following stock-based compensation plans and programs: During 1998, we adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the 1998 Plan). An aggregate of 285,714 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options granted under the 1998 Plan. In September 2005, the shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares available for issuance to 714,285 shares. The 1998 Plan expired on August 31, 2008. The options are exercisable for up to ten years from the grant date. As of December 31, 2015, there were outstanding options to purchase 359,995 share of Company common stock under the 1998 Plan. Subsequent to the expiration of the 1998 Plan, the Company issued, outside of the 1998 Plan, non-incentive stock options for an aggregate of 1,243,584 shares of Company common stock. Of this amount, 782,960 remain outstanding. During 2013, we adopted the 2013 Performance Incentive Plan (the 2013 Plan), which allows us to grant options or restricted stock units to all employees, including executive officers, outside consultants and non-employee directors. An aggregate of 3.1 million shares of common stock are reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options granted under the 2013 Plan. Option vesting periods are generally four years for the 2013 Plan. Options granted under this plan generally expire ten years from the effective date of grant. As of December 31, 2015, there were outstanding options to purchase 1,412,308 shares of Company common stock and no unvested restricted stock units outstanding under the 2013 Plan. Issuance of Shares When options and warrants are exercised, it is the Companys policy to issue new shares.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, stock options covering 131,388 shares of common stock with a total intrinsic value of $127,312 were exercised. During the year ended December 31, 2014, stock options covering 68,520 shares of common stock with a total intrinsic value of $155,704 were exercised. As of December 31, 2015, there was $1,252,704 of aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding stock options, including $1,106,275 of aggregate intrinsic value of exercisable stock options. Intrinsic value is the total pretax intrinsic value for all in-the-money options (i.e., the difference between the Companys closing stock price on the last trading day of 2015 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of December 31, 2015. This amount will change based on the fair market value of the Companys stock.

Commitments & Contingencies | Leases On August 19, 2014 we signed an amendment to our lease agreement, which expanded the premises leased by the Company from the landlord from approximately 26,000 to approximately 30,000 rentable square feet. The term of the lease continues until July 31, 2021 with two options to extend the term of the lease, each of which is for an additional period of five years, with the first extension term commencing, if at all, on August 1, 2021, and the second extension term commencing, if at all, immediately following the expiration of the first extension term. In accordance with the amended lease agreement, our monthly base rent increased to approximately $59,700 effective January 1, 2015, with scheduled annual increases each August and again in October for the most recent amendment. The Company is also required to pay an amount equal to the Companys proportionate share of certain taxes and operating expenses. The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments required under the facility leases as of December 31, 2015: Year Ending December 31 2016 $ 676,000 2017 690,000 2018 704,000 2019 718,000 2020 733,000 Thereafter 433,000 Total $ 3,954,000 Rental expense for this facility lease for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 totaled $809,464 and $728,086, respectively.

None of these employment agreements is for a definitive period, but rather each will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with its terms. The agreements provide for a base annual salary, payable in monthly (or shorter) installments. In addition, the agreement with the Chief Executive Officer provides for incentive bonuses at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Under certain conditions and for certain of these officers, we may be required to pay additional amounts upon terminating the officer or upon the officer resigning for good reason. biologistex Our agreement to form the biologistex joint venture requires us to make an initial capital contribution of $2.4 million. As of December 31, 2015 the remaining capital contribution commitment is $2.2 million. In addition, we agreed to pay SAVSU $1 million in consideration of SAVSUs participation in biologistex. As of December 31, 2015, we have recorded the entire amount and have no further commitment. In addition, biologistex is required to purchase approximately $2.6 million in Smart Containers from SAVSU, of which $0.2 million has been purchased as of December 31, 2015. See Note 1.

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2015 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of estimates | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Net loss per share | Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents are excluded for the years ending December 31, 2015 and 2014 since the effect is anti-dilutive due to the Companys net losses. Common stock equivalents include stock options and warrants. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding, and the potentially dilutive securities excluded from loss per share computations because they are antidilutive, are as follows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014: 2015 2014 Basic and diluted weighted average common stock shares outstanding 12,177,396 10,447,030 Potentially dilutive securities excluded from loss per share computations: Common stock options 2,555,263 1,390,770 Common stock purchase warrants 7,195,997 7,428,141 |
Cash and cash equivalents | Cash equivalents consist primarily of interest-bearing money market accounts. We consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances that may exceed federally insured limits. We do not believe that this results in any significant credit risk. No cash was paid for either interest expense or income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. |
Investments | The Company's investments consist primarily of commercial paper, corporate debt, and other debt securities. Investments are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of shareholders' equity. The realized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are included in other income and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Realized gains and losses are calculated based on the specific identification method. The Company monitors its investment portfolio for impairment on a periodic basis. When the amortized cost basis of an investment exceeds its fair value and the decline in value is determined to be an other-than-temporary decline, and when the Company does not intend to sell the debt security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the debt securities prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company records an impairment charge in the amount of the credit loss and the balance, if any, to other comprehensive income (loss). |
Inventories | Inventories represent biopreservation solutions, raw materials used to make biopreservation solutions and finished evo Smart Shippers, and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. |
Accounts receivable | Accounts receivable are stated at principal amount, do not bear interest, and are generally unsecured. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts based on an evaluation of customer account balances past due ninety days from the date of invoicing. Accounts considered uncollectible are charged against the established allowance. |
Property and equipment | Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to ten years. |
Intangible asset | Our intangible asset represents exclusive distribution rights to the Smart Containers associated with our biologistex CCM, LLC joint venture discussed previously. The intangible asset was recorded at its fair value of $2,215,385 at the date contributed. We will review the intangible asset for impairment whenever an impairment indicator exists. We will assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such asset will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, we will recognize an impairment loss based on any excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. We did not recognize any intangible asset impairment charges in 2015 or 2014. We will amortize this asset over its estimated useful life of 20 years, the life of the distribution agreement with SAVSU with expected amortization of $0.1 million per year. Amortization is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2016 with the initial commercial shipments of the Smart Containers. Amortization is based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset will be consumed or on a straight-line basis when the consumption pattern is not apparent. |
Internal Use Software | We capitalize costs associated with the development of the biologistex web and mobile applications, which we consider internal-use software. Capitalization of costs began in the first quarter of 2015, when we reached the application development stage. Such capitalized costs include external direct costs utilized in developing or obtaining the applications and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees, who are directly associated with the development of the applications. Capitalization will cease once we have completed all substantial testing, at which time the applications are complete and ready for their intended use. In 2015, we capitalized $1.7 million in costs related to the development of the biologistex web and mobile applications. Of this amount, $0.3 million was unpaid as of December 31, 2015. Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, will be expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized. Capitalized costs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful life of three years once the software has been commercially deployed. |
Deferred Rent | For our operating leases, we recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases and, accordingly, we record the difference between cash rent payments and the recognition of rent expense as a deferred rent liability. Landlord-funded leasehold improvements, to the extent the improvements are not landlord property upon lease termination, are also recorded as deferred rent liabilities and are amortized as a reduction of rent expense over the non-cancelable term of the related operating lease. |
Revenue recognition | We recognize product revenue, including shipping and handling charges billed to customers, upon shipment of product when title and risk of loss pass to customers. Shipping and handling costs are classified as part of cost of product sales. We may also receive fees from our contract manufacturing customers for validation of the manufacturing process. This typically occurs prior to production for those customers and revenue is recognized upon successful completion of all obligations related to the validation process. |
Income taxes | We account for income taxes using an asset and liability method which generally requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax effects of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax effects of differences between tax bases of assets and liabilities, and financial reporting amounts, based upon enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. We evaluate the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets and provide an allowance where, in managements opinion, it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized. We have not recorded any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or any related interest and penalties. Our tax returns are open to audit for years ending December 31, 2012 to 2015. |
Advertising | Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $69,091 and $19,584 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. |
Operating segments | As described above, our activities are directed in the life sciences field of biopreservation products and services. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 this is the Companys only operating unit and segment. |
Concentrations of credit risk and business risk | In 2015 and 2014, we derived approximately 10% and 11%, respectively, of our revenue from our relationship with one distributor of our products. In 2014, we also derived 18% of our revenue from our relationship with one contract-manufacturing customer. Revenue from customers located in foreign countries represented 21% and 16% of total revenue during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. |
Research and development | Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. |
Stock-based compensation | We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model as our method of valuation for stock option awards. Restricted stock unit grants are valued at the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation expense is based on the value of the portion of the stock-based award that will vest during the period, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Our determination of the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected life of the award, expected stock price volatility over the term of the award and historical and projected exercise behaviors. The estimation of share-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual or updated results differ from our current estimates, such amounts will be recorded in the period estimates are revised. Although the fair value of stock option awards is determined in accordance with authoritative guidance, the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results. Share-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the applicable requisite service period based on the fair value of such share-based awards on the grant date. The fair value of options at the date of grant is determined under the Black-Scholes option pricing model. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the following weighted-average assumptions were used: Assumptions 2015 2014 Risk-free rate 1.77 % 2.01 % Annual rate of dividends Historical volatility 105.20 % 105.20 % Expected life 7.0 years 7.0 years The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. We do not anticipate declaring dividends in the foreseeable future. Volatility was based on historical data. We utilize the simplified method in determining option lives. The simplified method is used due to the fact that we have had significant structural changes in our business such that our historical exercise data may not provide a reasonable basis to estimate option lives. We recognize compensation expense for only the portion of options that are expected to vest. Therefore, management applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is derived from historical employee termination data. The estimated forfeiture rate applied for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was 7.00%. If the actual number of forfeitures differs from those estimated by management, additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods. Our stock price volatility, option lives and expected forfeiture rates involve managements best estimates at the time of such determination, all of which impact the fair value of the option calculated under the Black-Scholes methodology and, ultimately, the expense that will be recognized over the life of the option. |
Recent accounting pronouncements | In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities: Topic 825 (ASU 2016-01). The updated guidance enhances the reporting model for financial instruments, which includes amendments to address aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. Adoption of ASU 2016-01 is required for fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2016-01 on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes: Topic 740 (ASU 2015-17). Current GAAP requires the deferred taxes for each jurisdiction to be presented as a net current asset or liability and net noncurrent asset or liability. This requires a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction analysis based on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which the underlying temporary differences relate, or, in the case of loss or credit carryforwards, based on the period in which the attribute is expected to be realized. Any valuation allowance is then required to be allocated on a pro rata basis, by jurisdiction, between current and noncurrent deferred tax assets. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. As a result, each jurisdiction will now only have one net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. The guidance does not change the existing requirement that only permits offsetting within a jurisdiction. Adoption of ASU 2015-17 is required for fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, and either prospective or retrospective application is permitted. Early adoption of ASU 2015-17 is permitted. At the time of adoption, all of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, will be classified as noncurrent on its Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company does not plan to early adopt ASU 2015-17. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory: Topic 330 (ASU 2015-11). Topic 330 currently requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires that inventory measured using either the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost method be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Adoption of ASU 2015-11 is required for fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. On May 28, 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. We have not yet selected a transition method and we are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. With the exception of the new revenue standard discussed above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective that have significance, or potential significance, to our Consolidated Financial Statements. |
