Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||
Accounting Policies | 2. Accounting Policies | ||||||||||||||||
Basis of Consolidation | |||||||||||||||||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 include the accounts of the Company and the Company's European subsidiaries Dyax S.A., Dyax BV and Dyax BV Holding. In 2014, Dyax S.A. and Dyax BV were dissolved. For the year ended December 31, 2014 the accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Dyax BV Holding. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. | |||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | |||||||||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The significant estimates and assumptions in these financial statements include revenue recognition, product sales allowances, effective interest rate calculation, useful lives with respect to long lived assets, valuation of stock options, accrued expenses and tax valuation reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | |||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||||
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and trade accounts receivable. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, approximately 98% and 89%, respectively, of the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were invested in money market funds backed by U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. Treasury notes and bills, and obligations of United States government agencies held by one financial institution. The Company maintains balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company provides most of its services and licenses its technology to pharmaceutical and biomedical companies worldwide, and makes all product sales to its distributors. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivable balances associated the Company’s development and license fee revenue are usually limited on an ongoing basis, due to the diverse number of licensees and collaborators comprising the Company's customer base. Trade receivable balances associated with the Company’s product sales are comprised of a few customers due to the Company’s limited distribution network. The Company completes ongoing credit evaluations of their customers. As of December 31, 2014, three companies accounted for 27% (Lilly), 21% (US Bioservices) and 20% (Walgreens) of the accounts receivable balance. The balance due from Lilly includes $1.7 million in unbilled accounts receivable. Two companies accounted for approximately 35% (US Bioservices) and 26% (Walgreens) of the Company's accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s two largest distributors of KABITOR are Walgreens and US Bioservices. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, sales to Walgreens were 34%, 38% and 40% of total revenue, respectively; and, sales to US Bioservices were 28%, 26% and 30% of total revenue, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Revenues from customers outside the United States, principally related to development and license agreements, were approximately 3%, 13% and 13% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||||||||||||||||
All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of ninety days or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist principally of cash, money market and U.S. Treasury funds. | |||||||||||||||||
Investments | |||||||||||||||||
Short-term investments primarily consist of investments with original maturities greater than ninety days and remaining maturities less than one year at period end. The Company has also classified its investments with maturities beyond one year as short-term, based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. The Company considers its investment portfolio of investments available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices. As of December 31, 2014, the Company's investments consisted of U.S. Treasury notes and bills with an amortized cost of $165.2 million, an estimated fair value of $165.3 million, and had an unrealized gain of $28,000. As of December 31, 2013, the Company's investments consisted of United States Treasury notes and bills with an estimated fair value and amortized cost of $43.3 million, and had an unrealized gain of $3,000, which is recorded in other comprehensive income on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Inventories | |||||||||||||||||
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined under the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, basis. The Company evaluates inventory levels and would write-down inventory that is expected to expire prior to being sold, inventory that has a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value, inventory in excess of expected sales requirements, or inventory that fails to meet commercial sale specifications, through a charge to cost of product sales. Included in the cost of inventory are capitalized employee stock-based compensation costs for those employees dedicated to manufacturing efforts. Inventory on-hand that will be sold beyond the Company's normal operating cycle is classified as non-current and grouped with other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Inventories consist principally of raw materials and work-in-process. In certain circumstances, the Company will make advance payments to vendors for future inventory deliveries. These advance payments are recorded as other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Fixed Assets | |||||||||||||||||
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method. Laboratory and production equipment, furniture and office equipment are depreciated over a three to seven year period. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and are amortized over the lesser of the non-cancelable term of the related lease or their estimated useful lives. Leased equipment is amortized over the lesser of the life of the lease or their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of these assets and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the balance sheet and any resulting gains or losses are included in operations in the period of disposal. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company records all proceeds received from the lessor for tenant improvements under the terms of its operating lease as deferred rent. The amounts are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease as an offset to rent expense. | |||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | |||||||||||||||||
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the undiscounted cash flow to the recorded value of the asset or asset group. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value, which is computed based on a discounted cash flow basis. | |||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s principal sources of revenue are product sales of KALBITOR and license fees, funding for research and development, and milestones and royalties derived from collaboration and license agreements. In all instances, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations. | |||||||||||||||||
Product Sales and Allowances | |||||||||||||||||
Product Sales. Product sales are generated from the sale of KALBITOR to the Company’s customers, primarily wholesale and specialty distributors, and are recorded upon delivery when title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. Product sales are recorded net of applicable reserves for distributors, prompt pay and other discounts, government rebates, patient financial assistance programs, product returns and other applicable allowances. | |||||||||||||||||
Under certain arrangements the Company has provided their distributors with extended payment terms. In these circumstances, revenue is not recognized until collectability is reasonably assured. | |||||||||||||||||
Product Sales Allowances. The Company establishes reserves for trade distributor, prompt pay and volume discounts, government rebates, patient financial assistance programs, product returns and other applicable allowances. Reserves established for these discounts and allowances are classified as a reduction of accounts receivable (if the amount is payable to the customer) or a liability (if the amount is payable to a party other than the customer). | |||||||||||||||||
Allowances against receivable balances primarily relate to prompt payment discounts and are recorded at the time of sale, resulting in a reduction in product sales revenue. Accruals related to government rebates, patient financial assistance programs, product returns and other applicable allowances are recognized at the time of sale, resulting in a reduction in product sales revenue and an increase in accrued expenses. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company maintains service contracts with its distributors. These contracts include services such as inventory maintenance and patient support services, which have included call center and on-demand nursing services. Accounting standards related to consideration given by a vendor to a customer, including a reseller of a vendor’s product, specify that each consideration given by a vendor to a customer is presumed to be a reduction of the selling price. Consideration should be characterized as a cost if the company receives, or will receive, an identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration, and fair value of the benefit can be reasonably estimated. The Company has established that patient support services are at fair value and represent a separate and identifiable benefit because these services could be provided by separate third-party vendors. Accordingly, these costs are classified as selling, general and administrative expense. | |||||||||||||||||
Fees paid to distributors for inventory maintenance are calculated as a percentage of KALBITOR sales price and accordingly, are classified as a reduction in product sales revenue. | |||||||||||||||||
Prompt Payment and Other Discounts. The Company offers a prompt payment discount to its United States distributors. Since the Company expects that these distributors will take advantage of this discount, the Company accrues 100% of the prompt payment discount that is based on the gross amount of each invoice, at the time of sale. This accrual is adjusted quarterly to reflect actual earned discounts. The Company has also offered volume discounts to certain distributors which are accrued quarterly based on sales during the period. | |||||||||||||||||
Government Rebates and Chargebacks. The Company estimates reductions to product sales for Medicaid and Veterans' Administration (VA) programs and the Medicare Part D Coverage Gap Program, as well as for certain other qualifying federal and state government programs. The Company estimates the amount of these reductions based on available KALBITOR patient data, actual sales data and rebate claims. These allowances are adjusted each period based on actual experience. | |||||||||||||||||
Medicaid rebate reserves relate to the Company’s estimated obligations to state jurisdictions under the established reimbursement arrangements of each applicable state. Rebate accruals are recorded during the same period in which the related product sales are recognized. Actual rebate amounts are determined at the time of claim by the state, and the Company will generally make cash payments for such amounts after receiving billings from the state. | |||||||||||||||||
VA rebates or chargeback reserves represent the Company’s estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products to qualified healthcare providers at a price lower than the list price charged to the Company’s distributor. The distributor will charge the Company for the difference between what the distributor pays for the product and the ultimate selling price to the qualified healthcare provider. Rebate accruals are established during the same period in which the related product sales are recognized. Actual chargeback amounts for Public Health Service are determined at the time of resale to the qualified healthcare provider from the distributor, and the Company will generally issue credits for such amounts after receiving notification from the distributor. | |||||||||||||||||
Although allowances and accruals are recorded at the time of product sale, certain rebates are typically paid out, on average, up to six months or longer after the sale. Reserve estimates are evaluated quarterly and if necessary, adjusted to reflect actual results. Any such adjustments will be reflected in the Company’s operating results in the period of the adjustment. | |||||||||||||||||
Product Returns. Allowances for product returns are recorded during the period in which the related product sales are recognized, resulting in a reduction to product revenue. The Company does not provide its distributors with a general right of product return. The Company permits returns if the product is damaged or defective when received by customers or if the product shelf life has expired. The Company estimates product returns based upon actual returns history and data provided by a distributor. | |||||||||||||||||
Patient Financial Assistance. The Company offers a financial assistance program for commercially insured KALBITOR patients in order to defray patients’ out-of-pocket expenses, including co-payments, to aid patients’ access to KALBITOR. The Company estimates its liability for this program based on actual but unpaid reimbursements, as well as, an estimated reserve for product sold to and held by distributors as of period end, based on the Company’s historical redemption rates. | |||||||||||||||||
An analysis of the amount of, and change in, reserves related to sales allowances is summarized as follows: | |||||||||||||||||

Development and License Fee Revenues | |||||||||||||||||
Collaboration Agreements. The Company enters into collaboration agreements with other companies for the research and development of therapeutic and diagnostic products. The terms of the agreements may include non-refundable signing and licensing fees, funding for research and development, payments related to manufacturing services, milestone payments and royalties on any product sales derived from collaborations. These multiple element arrangements are analyzed to determine how the deliverables, which often include license and performance obligations such as research, steering committee and manufacturing services, are separated into units of accounting. | |||||||||||||||||
For agreements entered into prior to 2011, the Company evaluated license arrangements with multiple elements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), 605-25 Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements. Since 2011, the Company has applied the guidance of ASU 2009-13 to evaluate license arrangements with multiple elements. This guidance amended the accounting standards for certain multiple element arrangements to: | |||||||||||||||||
· | Provide updated guidance on whether multiple elements exist, how the elements in an arrangement should be separated and how the arrangement considerations should be allocated to the separate elements; | ||||||||||||||||
· | Require an entity to allocate arrangement consideration to each element based on a selling price hierarchy, also called the relative selling price method, where the selling price for an element is based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE), if available; third-party evidence (TPE), if available and VSOE is not available; or the best estimate of selling price (BESP), if neither VSOE or TPE is available; and | ||||||||||||||||
· | Eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate arrangement consideration using the selling price hierarchy. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates all deliverables within an arrangement to determine whether or not they provide value to the licensee on a stand-alone basis. Based on this evaluation, the deliverables are separated into units of accounting. If VSOE or vendor objective evidence (VOE) is not available to determine the fair value of a deliverable, the Company determines the best estimate of selling price associated with the deliverable. The arrangement consideration, including upfront license fees and funding for research and development, is allocated to the separate units based on relative fair value. | |||||||||||||||||
VSOE is based on the price charged when an element is sold separately and represents the actual price charged for that deliverable. When VSOE cannot be established, the Company attempts to establish the selling price of the elements of a license arrangement based on VOE. VOE is determined based on third party evidence for similar deliverables when sold separately. In circumstances when the Company charges a licensee for pass-through costs paid to external vendors for development services, these costs represent VOE. | |||||||||||||||||
When the Company is unable to establish the selling price of an element using VSOE or VOE, management determines BESP for that element. The objective of BESP is to determine the price at which the Company would transact a sale if the element within the license agreement was sold on a stand-alone basis. The Company’s process for establishing BESP involves management’s judgment and considers multiple factors including discounted cash flows, estimated direct expenses and other costs and available data. | |||||||||||||||||
Based on the value allocated to each unit of accounting within an arrangement, upfront fees and other guaranteed payments are allocated to each unit based on relative value. The appropriate revenue recognition method is applied to each unit and revenue is accordingly recognized as each unit is delivered. | |||||||||||||||||
For agreements entered into prior to 2011, revenue related to upfront license fees was spread over the full period of performance under the agreement, unless the license was determined to provide value to the licensee on a stand-alone basis and the fair value of the undelivered performance obligations, typically including research or steering committee services was determinable. | |||||||||||||||||
Steering committee services that were not inconsequential or perfunctory and were determined to be performance obligations were combined with other research services or performance obligations required under an arrangement, if any, to determine the level of effort required in an arrangement and the period over which the Company expected to complete its aggregate performance obligations. | |||||||||||||||||
Whenever the Company determined that an arrangement should be accounted for as a single unit of accounting, it determined the period over which the performance obligations would be completed. Revenue is recognized using either an efforts-based or time-based proportional performance (i.e. straight-line) method. The Company recognizes revenue using an efforts-based proportional performance method when the level of effort required to complete its performance obligations under an arrangement can be reasonably estimated and such performance obligations are provided on a best-efforts basis. Direct labor hours or full-time equivalents are typically used as the measurement of performance. | |||||||||||||||||
If the Company cannot reasonably estimate the level of effort to complete its performance obligations under an arrangement, then revenue under the arrangement is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations. | |||||||||||||||||
Many of the Company's collaboration agreements entitle it to additional payments upon the achievement of performance-based milestones. Milestones that are tied to development or regulatory approval are not considered probable of being achieved until such approval is received. All milestones which are determined to be substantive milestones are recognized as revenue in the period in which they are met in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method. Milestones tied to counter-party performance are not included in the Company’s revenue model until performance conditions are met. Milestones determined to be non-substantive are allocated to each unit of accounting within an arrangement when met. The allocation of the milestone to each unit is based on relative value and revenue related to each unit is recognized accordingly. | |||||||||||||||||
Costs of revenues related to licensees’ product development, including license fees and development and regulatory milestones are classified as research and development in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Phage Display Library Licenses. Standard terms of the proprietary phage display library agreements generally include non-refundable signing fees, license maintenance fees, development milestone payments, product license payments and royalties on product sales. Signing fees and maintenance fees are generally recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the agreement as deliverables within these arrangements are determined to not provide the licensee with value on a stand-alone basis and therefore are accounted for as a single unit of accounting. As milestones are achieved under a phage display library license, a portion of the milestone payment, equal to the percentage of the performance period completed when the milestone is achieved, multiplied by the amount of the milestone payment, will be recognized. The remaining portion of the milestone will be recognized over the remaining performance period on a straight-line basis. If the Company has no future obligations under the license, milestone payments under these license arrangements are recognized as revenue when the milestone is achieved. Product license payments, which are optional to the licensee, are substantive and therefore are excluded from the initial allocation of the arrangement consideration. These payments are recognized as revenue when the license is issued upon exercise of the licensee’s option, if the Company has no future obligations under the agreement. If there are future obligations under the agreement, product license payments are recognized as revenue only to the extent of the fair value of the license. Amounts paid in excess of fair value are recognized in a manner similar to milestone payments. Payments received that have not met the appropriate criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as deferred revenue. | |||||||||||||||||
Phage Display Patent Licenses. The Company previously licensed its phage display patents on a non-exclusive basis to third parties for use in connection with the research and development of therapeutic, diagnostic, and other products. The core patents in this portfolio expired in November 2012. Even after patent expiration, the Company generally remains eligible under these patent licenses to receive milestones and/or royalties for products discovered prior to patent expiration, although certain existing patent licenses will no longer have a royalty obligation. The Company does not expect the expiration of these patents to have a material impact on the LFRP. | |||||||||||||||||
Standard terms of the patent rights agreements include non-refundable signing fees, non-refundable license maintenance fees, development milestone payments and/or royalties on product sales. Signing fees and maintenance fees are generally recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the agreement or through the date of patent expiry, if shorter, except that in the case of perpetual patent licenses for which fees were recognized immediately if it was determined that the Company had no future obligations under the agreement and the payments were made upfront. If the Company has no remaining performance obligations under the patent license agreement, milestones are recognized as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved. | |||||||||||||||||
LFRP Milestones | |||||||||||||||||
Non-substantive Milestones. Under the LFRP licenses, the Company is eligible to receive clinical development, regulatory filing and marketing approval milestones, which vary from licensee to licensee. Achievement of these milestones is contingent upon each licensee’s efforts and involves risks and uncertainty related to drug development, regulatory approval and intellectual property that could lead to milestones never being met. | |||||||||||||||||
Based on information available to the Company regarding pre-clinical and clinical candidates in the LFRP developed using its technology and through intellectual property rights granted, it is estimated that the Company could receive up to $81 million in development milestones, $67 million in regulatory filing milestones and $96 million in marketing approval milestones. As achievement of these milestones is outside the control of the Company and is contingent upon the licensees’ efforts, they have been determined to be non-substantive milestones. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company recognized revenue of approximately $4.5 million, $3.1 million and $3.3 million related to milestones under the LFRP for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Substantive Milestones. Under certain collaboration agreements, the Company performs funded research for various collaborators using its phage display technology and libraries. These arrangements typically include technical milestones that are based on agreed upon objectives to be met under the research campaign, which are considered to be commensurate with the Company’s performance and therefore have been determined to be substantive milestones. | |||||||||||||||||
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $327,000 for technical milestones. There was no amount recognized during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company is not eligible to receive any future technical milestones at this time. | |||||||||||||||||
Non-LFRP Milestones | |||||||||||||||||
In certain countries outside of the U.S., the Company has entered into licensing agreements for the development and commercialization of KALBITOR for the treatment of HAE and other angioedema indications. Under these agreements, the Company is eligible to receive certain development and sales milestones. See Note 3, Significant Transactions. | |||||||||||||||||
Royalty Revenue | |||||||||||||||||
Royalty revenue is recognized when it becomes determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. For royalties recognized related to CYRAMZA, the first therapeutic product in the LFRP, which is commercialized by Lilly, the Company is contractually entitled to receive a royalty report from Lilly subsequent to each quarter end. Upon initial commercialization of CYRAMZA in the second quarter of 2014, the Company recognized royalty revenue one quarter in arrears from the related sales as it has not been able to determine royalty revenue until receipt of this report. Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company has recognized royalty revenue using an estimate of the royalties earned for the quarter based on Lilly’s reported sales of CYRAMZA. | |||||||||||||||||
Cost of Product Sales and Royalties | |||||||||||||||||
Cost of product sales includes costs to procure, manufacture and distribute KALBITOR and manufacturing royalties. Costs associated with the manufacture of KALBITOR prior to regulatory approval in the United States were expensed when incurred as a research and development cost and accordingly, KALBITOR units sold during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 do not include the full cost of drug manufacturing. For the year ended December 31, 2014, KALBITOR units sold included the full cost of drug manufacturing. | |||||||||||||||||
Cost of royalties is derived from pass-through fees under the Company’s cross license agreement related to royalties from product sales by its LFRP licensees. | |||||||||||||||||
Research and Development | |||||||||||||||||
Research and development costs include all direct costs, including salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, outside consultants, costs of clinical trials, sponsored research, clinical trials insurance, other outside costs, depreciation and facility costs related to the development of drug candidates, as well as certain pass-through costs under the Company’s cross license agreements related to product development by its LFRP licensees, including license fees and development and regulatory milestones. | |||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||||
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted statutory tax rates. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors that include, but are not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves or unrecognized tax benefits that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties, if any. The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis and adjusts the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions. | |||||||||||||||||
Translation of Foreign Currencies | |||||||||||||||||
Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated at period end exchange rates. Amounts included in the statements of operations are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. As the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are U.S. dollar functional currency denominated, local currency is remeasured in U.S. dollars and are recorded to other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recorded other expense of $33,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and other income of $14,000 and $15,000, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Share-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s share-based compensation program consists of share-based awards granted to employees in the form of stock options and restricted stock units, as well as its 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the Purchase Plan). The Company’s share-based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with ASC 718. | |||||||||||||||||
Income or Loss Per Share | |||||||||||||||||
The Company follows the two-class method when computing net loss per share, as it had issued shares that met the definition of participating securities. The two-class method determines net loss per share for each class of common and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends, as if all income for the period had been distributed. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company presents two earnings or loss per share (EPS) amounts, basic and diluted in accordance with ASC 260. Basic earnings or loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net loss per share does not differ from basic net loss per share since potential common shares from the exercise of stock options, warrants or rights under the Purchase Plan are anti-dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, and therefore, are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share. | |||||||||||||||||
The weighted average of stock options, restricted stock units and warrants outstanding totaled 12.2 million, 12.2 million and 12.3 million at December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | |||||||||||||||||
The Company accounts for comprehensive income (loss) under ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, which established standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The statement required that all components of comprehensive income (loss) be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company is presenting comprehensive income (loss) as part of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Business Segments | |||||||||||||||||
The Company discloses business segments under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The statement established standards for reporting information about operating segments and disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company operates in one business segment as a biopharmaceutical company within predominantly one geographic area. Long-lived assets consist entirely of property and equipment and are located in the United States for all periods presented. | |||||||||||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |||||||||||||||||
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies, which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption. | |||||||||||||||||
In May 2014, the FASB issued an amendment which will replace most of the existing revenue recognition guidance within U.S. GAAP. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will be required to make certain judgments and estimates, including identifying contract performance obligations, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price among separate performance obligations. Additionally, the amendment requires disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, significant judgments reached in the application of the guidance and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. Effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2017, the amendment allows for two methods of adoption, a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is in the process of determining the method of adoption and the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||
In August 2014, the FASB issued an amendment that requires management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. The amendments in this update provide guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments in this update apply to all entities and are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||

CVie | |
In 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with CVie Therapeutics (CVie), a subsidiary of Lee’s Pharmaceutical Holdings Ltd., to develop and commercialize KALBITOR for the treatment of HAE and other angioedema indications in China, Hong Kong and Macau. Under the terms of this exclusive license agreement, Dyax received a $1.0 million upfront payment and is eligible to receive up to $11 million in future regulatory and sales milestones. In September 2014, the contract was amended to expand CVIE’s territories to include the Republic of Korea, Taiwan and Singapore. The Company is eligible to receive royalties on net product sales in all licensed territories. CVie is solely responsible for all costs associated with development, regulatory activities and the commercialization of KALBITOR in its licensed territories. CVie will purchase drug product from the Company on a cost-plus basis for its commercial supply when and if KALBITOR is approved for commercial sale in the CVie territories. | |
The Company analyzed this multiple element arrangement in accordance with ASC 605 and evaluated whether the performance obligations under this agreement, including the product license, steering committee, and manufacturing services should be accounted for as a single unit or multiple units of accounting. Because of the risk associated with obtaining approval for commercial sale in the CVie territories, manufacturing services associated with commercial supply are considered a contingent deliverable and will be accounted for if and when performed. As CVie is required to obtain all drug product for both clinical development and commercial demand from the Company, all other deliverables under this arrangement were determined to provide no stand-alone value to the licensee. Accordingly, it was determined that the license, manufacturing services associated with clinical supply, and steering committee performance obligations under this agreement represent a single unit of accounting. | |
At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the level of effort required to fulfill its obligations and, therefore, is recognizing revenue associated with the upfront payment on a straight-line basis through mid-2020, the estimated development period in the CVie territories. | |
The Company recognized revenue of $105,000 and $172,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has deferred $723,000 and $828,000, respectively of revenue related to this arrangement, which is recorded in deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. | |
Pint/Novellus | |
In 2013, the Company entered into an exclusive agreement with Novellus Biopharma AG (Novellus) to develop and commercialize KALBITOR for the treatment of HAE and other angioedema indications in select countries in Latin America, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Venezuela. Under the terms of the exclusive license agreement, the Company received upfront payments totaling $500,000 and is eligible to receive up to $5.2 million in future regulatory and sales milestones and royalties on net product sales. In 2014, this agreement was assigned by Novellus to Pint Pharma (Pint) and amended to include the territories of Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, and South Africa. Pint is solely responsible for all costs associated with development, regulatory activities, and the commercialization of KALBITOR in their licensed territories. Pint will purchase drug product from the Company on a cost-plus basis for its commercial supply. | |
The Company analyzed this multiple element arrangement in accordance with ASC 605 and evaluated whether the performance obligations under this agreement, including the product license, steering committee, and manufacturing services should be accounted for as a single unit or multiple units of accounting. As Pint is required to obtain all drug product for both clinical and commercial demand from the Company, all other deliverables under this arrangement were determined to provide no stand-alone value to the licensee. Accordingly, it was determined that performance obligations under this agreement represent a single unit of accounting. | |
The Company will recognize revenue related to this arrangement, including the upfront payments, on a unit output basis, as products under clinical and commercial supply are provided to Pint. As no supply has been provided to Pint to date, no revenue has been recognized under this agreement. The Company has deferred recognition of the upfront payments of $500,000, which is recorded in deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. | |
CMIC | |
In 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with CMIC Co., Ltd. (CMIC) to develop and commercialize subcutaneous ecallantide for the treatment of HAE and other angioedema indications in Japan. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received a $4.0 million upfront payment and was eligible to receive development and sales milestones for ecallantide in HAE and other angioedema indications and royalties on net product sales. CMIC was solely responsible for all costs associated with development, regulatory activities, and commercialization of ecallantide for all angioedema indications in Japan. | |
In 2013, CMIC provided the Company written notice of CMIC’s intent to terminate the agreement, effective in June 2014, at which time all of the rights to develop ecallantide in Japan returned to the Company. The Company has no obligations to CMIC in connection with, or following the termination. | |
Upon the commencement of the agreement in 2010, the Company analyzed this multiple element arrangement in accordance with ASC 605 and evaluated whether the performance obligations under this agreement, including the product license, development of ecallantide for the treatment of HAE and other angioedema indications in Japan, steering committee, and manufacturing services should be accounted for as a single unit or multiple units of accounting. The Company determined that there were two units of accounting. The first unit of accounting included the product license, the committed future development services and the steering committee involvement. The second unit of accounting relates to the manufacturing services. As the scope and timing of the future development of ecallantide for the treatment of HAE and other indications in the CMIC territory are the joint responsibility of the Company and CMIC, the Company could not reasonably estimate the level of effort required to fulfill its obligations under the first unit of accounting, and, as a result, the Company was recognizing revenue under the first unit of accounting on a straight-line basis over the estimated development period of ecallantide for the treatment of HAE in the CMIC territory. | |
Upon receiving notification of CMIC’s irrevocable intent to terminate, the Company determined it had no further obligations under this arrangement, and therefore, the full amount of deferred revenue of $2.0 million was recognized in 2013. The Company recognized revenue of approximately $2.6 million and $755,000 and related to this agreement for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. There is no further revenue to be recognized under this agreement. | |
Sigma Tau | |
The Company entered into a collaboration agreement and several amendments thereto with Sigma-Tau Rare Diseases S.A. (as successor-in-interest to Defiante Farmaceutica S.A.) (Sigma Tau) to develop and commercialize subcutaneous ecallantide for the treatment of HAE and other therapeutic indications in various territories throughout the world. In 2013, Sigma Tau’s rights to all remaining territories were eliminated under a termination agreement between the Company and Sigma Tau. | |
Through the date of termination, Sigma Tau had made aggregate upfront payments of $7.0 million, and payments of $3.8 million for reimbursement associated with development services, and it purchased 787,647 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $3.0 million. | |
Through May 2011, revenue under this arrangement was recognized in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. In May 2011, in conjunction with the second amendment to this agreement, it was determined that the existing arrangement had been materially modified. As a result, the Company re-evaluated the entire arrangement under ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition with Multiple Deliverables, as if all modifications since inception were part of the original agreement. All undelivered items under the agreement were identified and allocated to separate units of accounting based on whether the deliverable provided stand-alone value to the licensee. The undelivered items as of the date of the second amendment consisted of (i) committed future development services, (ii) steering committee services and (iii) manufacturing services. Manufacturing services for commercial supply were determined to be a contingent deliverable as the performance of these services were contingent upon Sigma-Tau obtaining regulatory approval in its territories. | |
The principal terms of the 2013 termination agreement included provision for (i) the revocation of all licenses granted by the Company to Sigma Tau, (ii) the termination of all other obligations under the license agreement, (iii) the issuance of 271,665 shares of the Company’s common stock to Sigma Tau, and (iv) the right of Sigma Tau to receive $500,000 for every $5.0 million of compensation received by the Company during the next ten years in relation to the potential license or supply of ecallantide exclusively in those territories that had been previously licensed to Sigma Tau. In accordance with ASC 605-50, the $1.1 million determined to be the fair value of the common stock as of the date of issuance was recorded as a reduction to development and license fee revenue on the Company’s statement of operations and $85,000 of deferred revenue attributable to the JSC services was recognized as revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2012, revenue recognized under this arrangement totaled $204,000. No additional revenue is expected to be recognized in future periods. | |

The following tables present information about the Company's financial assets that have been measured at fair value as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices, 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. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. | ||||||||||||||

These amounts represent projected future principal and interest payments to HealthCare Royalty Partners (HC Royalty) based on current LFRP projections, which are subject to uncertainties based on the timing and amounts of cash receipts under the LFRP. The estimated 2015 amount represents substantially all interest payments. The Company records interest expense on a quarterly basis as incurred and interest payable is recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as a current liability. | ||||||||
Note Payable - HealthCare Royalty Partners | ||||||||
The Company has a loan agreement with an affiliate of HC Royalty with aggregate principal of $84.5 million as of December 31, 2014, consisting of a $22.8 million Tranche A Loan and a $61.7 million Tranche B Loan (collectively, the Loan). The Loan bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum, payable quarterly. The Loan will mature in August 2018, and can be repaid without penalty beginning in August 2015. | ||||||||
In connection with the Loan, the Company entered into a security agreement granting HC Royalty a security interest in the intellectual property related to the LFRP and the revenues generated by the Company through the licenses of the intellectual property related to the LFRP. The security agreement does not apply to the Company's internal drug development or to any of the Company's co-development programs for ecallantide. | ||||||||
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to repay the Loan based on the annual net LFRP receipts. Until September 30, 2016, required payments are equal to the sum of 75% of the first $15.0 million in specified annual LFRP receipts and 25% of specified annual LFRP receipts over $15.0 million. After September 30, 2016, and until the maturity date or the complete repayment of the Loan, HC Royalty will receive 90% of all included LFRP receipts. If the HC Royalty portion of LFRP receipts for any quarter exceeds the interest for that quarter, then the principal balance will be reduced. Any unpaid principal will be due upon the maturity of the Loan. If the HC Royalty portion of LFRP revenues for any quarterly period is insufficient to cover the cash interest due for that period, the deficiency may be added to the outstanding principal or paid in cash by the Company. After five years from the dates of the Tranche A Loan and the Tranche B Loan, respectively, the Company must repay to HC Royalty all additional accumulated principal above the original loan amounts of $21.7 million and $58.8 million, respectively. | ||||||||
Tranche A Loan | ||||||||
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received a loan of $20 million (Tranche A Loan) in 2011 and a commitment to refinance amounts outstanding under the Original Loans (defined below) in 2012. | ||||||||
Upon execution of the Tranche A Loan, the terms of the Original Loans were determined to be modified under ASC 470. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, interest expense on the Loan is being recorded in the Company’s financial statements at an effective interest rate of 12.5%, 12.6% and 13.0%, respectively. | ||||||||
Upon modification of the Original Loans, the note payable balance related to the Tranche A Loan was reduced by $193,000 to reflect payment of the lender’s legal fees in conjunction with the Tranche A Loan; these fees are being accreted over the life of the Loan, through August 2018. | ||||||||
Tranche B Loan | ||||||||
In 2012, the Company completed a second closing under the agreement of approximately $57.6 million, the Tranche B loan, which refinanced the Original Loans on the same terms as the Tranche A Loan. | ||||||||
Original Loans | ||||||||
In connection with the Original Loans, the Company issued affiliates of HC Royalty warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In 2008, the Company issued warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share. This warrant became exercisable in 2009 and could be exercised through August 2016. The Company estimated the relative fair value of the warrant to be $853,000 on the date of issuance, using the Black-Scholes valuation model, assuming a volatility factor of 83.64%, risk-free interest rate of 4.07%, an eight-year expected term and an expected dividend yield of zero. In 2009, the Company issued HC Royalty a second warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.87 per share. This warrant became exercisable in 2010 and could be exercised through August 2016. The Company estimated the relative fair value of the warrant to be $477,000 on the date of issuance, using the Black-Scholes valuation model, assuming a volatility factor of 85.98%, risk-free interest rate of 2.77%, a seven-year, four-month expected term and an expected dividend yield of zero. The relative fair values of the warrants as of the date of issuance are recorded in additional paid-in capital on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. In 2013, HC Royalty executed their right to complete a cashless exercise of their warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock issued in conjunction with the Original Loans. As a result, 233,438 shares were issued to HC Royalty and no warrants remain outstanding under this agreement. | ||||||||
The cash proceeds from the Original Loans were recorded as a note payable on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The note payable balance was reduced by $1.3 million for the fair value of the warrants issued, and by $580,000 for payment of HC Royalty’s legal fees in conjunction with the Original Loans. Subsequent to the modification of the debt arrangement in 2011, the unamortized portion of these amounts is being accreted over the life of the Loan through August 2018. | ||||||||
The Loan principal balance was $84.5 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013. For financial reporting purposes, the Loan is adjusted for discounts associated with the debt issuance, including warrants and fees. Activity under the Loan is presented for financial reporting purposes, as follows: | ||||||||

The note payable was valued using expected cash flows discounted at our estimate of the currently available market interest rate. | ||||||||
Obligations Under Equipment Loan Arrangements | ||||||||
In 2012, the Company entered into an equipment lease line of credit for up to $3 million with Silicon Valley Bank. When drawn, the note bore interest at a 6% annual rate. The Company drew down $1.4 million from this line during 2012, which was being financed over a 3-year term. As of December 31, 2013, the outstanding balance of this loan was $931,000. The loan was fully paid in September 2014. | ||||||||
Operating Leases | ||||||||
In 2012, the Company relocated its operations to Burlington, Massachusetts. The premises, consisting of approximately 45,000 rentable square feet of office and laboratory facilities, serve as the Company’s principal offices and corporate headquarters. The term of the lease is ten years, and the Company has rights to extend the term for an additional five years at fair market value subject to specified terms and conditions. The aggregate minimum lease commitment over the ten-year term of the new lease is approximately $15.0 million. The Company has provided the landlord a Letter of Credit of $1.1 million to secure its obligations under the lease for which the Company has restricted cash recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Under the terms of the lease agreement, the landlord has provided the Company with a tenant improvement allowance of $2.6 million, and a loan totaling $671,000, which was used towards the cost of leasehold improvements. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013 the outstanding balance of the loan was $527,000 and $580,000. The Company has capitalized approximately $4.5 million in leasehold improvements associated with the Burlington facility. Costs reimbursed under the tenant improvement allowance have been recorded as deferred rent and are being amortized as a reduction to rent expense over the lease term. | ||||||||

Equity Incentive Plan | ||||||||||||
The Company's 1995 Equity Incentive Plan (the Equity Plan), as amended, is an equity plan under which equity awards, including awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units (RSUs) and incentive and nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of common stock may be granted to employees, consultants and directors of the Company by action of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Options are granted at the current fair market value on the date of grant, generally vest ratably over a 48-month period, and expire within ten years from date of grant. RSUs are valued at the current fair market value on the date of grant, and generally vest annually in equal installments over a four-year period. The Equity Plan is intended to attract and retain employees and to provide an incentive for employees, consultants and directors to assist the Company to achieve long-range performance goals and to enable them to participate in the long-term growth of the Company. | ||||||||||||
In February 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors amended the Equity Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock approved for issuance under the plan and this amendment was approved by the Company’s stockholders in May 2014. At December 31, 2014, a total of 10,372,949 shares were available for future grants under the Equity Plan. | ||||||||||||
Employee Stock Purchase Plan | ||||||||||||
The Company's 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Purchase Plan) allows employees to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a discount from fair market value. Under the Purchase Plan, eligible employees may purchase shares during six-month offering periods commencing on June 1 and December 1 of each year at a price per share of 85% of the lower of the fair market value price per share on the first or last day of each six-month offering period. Participating employees may elect to have up to 10% of their base pay withheld and applied toward the purchase of such shares, subject to the limitation of 875 shares per participant per quarter. The rights of participating employees under the Purchase Plan terminate upon voluntary withdrawal from the Purchase Plan at any time or upon termination of employment. In February 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors amended the Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock approved for issuance under the plan and this amendment was approved by the Company’s stockholders in May 2014. | ||||||||||||

At December 31, 2014, a total of 702,752 shares were reserved and available for issuance under this Plan. | ||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation Expense | ||||||||||||
The Company measures compensation cost for all stock awards at fair value on date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. The fair value of stock options was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Such value is recognized as expense over the service period, net of estimated forfeitures and adjusted for actual forfeitures. The estimation of stock options that will ultimately vest requires significant judgment. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including historical experience. Actual results and future changes in estimates may differ substantially from the Company's current estimates. | ||||||||||||

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using future enacted rates. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets for which the Company determines that it does not meet the criteria under ASC 740. | ||||||||||

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had federal tax net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) of $348.1 million and $329.2 million, respectively, available to reduce future taxable income, which expire at various times beginning in 2018 through 2034. The Company also had federal research and experimentation and orphan drug credit carryforwards of approximately $68.1 million and $61.6 million as of December 31 2014 and 2013, respectively, available to reduce future tax liabilities which will expire at various dates beginning in 2018 through 2034. The Company had state tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $53.5 million and $93.8 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, available to reduce future state taxable income, which will expire at various dates beginning in 2029 through 2034. The Company had state NOLs related to stock compensation in the amount of $5.5 million that is not included in the deferred tax asset. The Company also had state research and development and investment tax credit carryforwards of approximately $8.8 million and $8.3 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, available to reduce future tax liabilities which expire at various dates beginning in 2015 through 2029. | ||||||||||
Included in the NOL carryforward of $348.1 million and $329.2 million are approximately $16.7 million and $8.2 million of tax deductions from the exercise of stock options at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company has also recorded a deferred tax asset of approximately $1.8 million at both December 31, 2014 and 2013 reflecting the benefit of the deduction from the exercise of stock options which has been fully reserved until it is more likely than not that the benefit will be realized. The benefit from these deductions will be recorded as a credit to additional paid-in capital if and when realized through a reduction of taxes paid in cash. | ||||||||||
As required by ASC 740, management of the Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the reliability of its deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of NOL carry forwards, research and experimentation credit carryforwards, and capitalized start up expenditures and research and development expenditures amortizable over ten years straight-line. Management has determined at this time that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of its federal and state deferred tax assets and, as a result, a valuation allowance of approximately $219.8 million and $213.9 million has been established at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | ||||||||||
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors that include, but are not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis and adjusts the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits or liabilities and had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. | ||||||||||
Utilization of the NOLs and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future, as provided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Section 382), as well as similar state and foreign provisions. Ownership changes may limit the amount of NOLs and tax credit carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively. In general, an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, results from transactions that increase the ownership of 5% shareholders or public groups in the stock of a corporation by more than 50 percent in the aggregate over a three-year period. The Company has completed studies through December 31, 2013, to determine whether any ownership change has occurred since the Company's formation and has determined that transactions have resulted in two ownership changes, as defined by Section 382. There could be additional ownership changes in the future that could further limit the amount of NOLs and tax credit carryforwards that the Company can utilize. | ||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s federal tax NOLs available to reduce future taxable income without limitation are $260.6 million, which expire at various times beginning in 2024 through 2033. The Company’s federal research and experimentation and orphan drug credit carryforward as of December 31, 2013 available to reduce future tax liabilities without limitation are $56.8 million, which will expire at various dates beginning in 2024 through 2033. In addition the Company has NOL and federal tax credits that are restricted and expire at various times beginning in 2018 through 2024. These restricted NOLs and federal tax credits of $67.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively, may be utilized in part, subject to an annual limitation. Ownership changes after December 31, 2013 could further restrict the use of these NOLs and federal tax credits. | ||||||||||
A full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company's NOL carryforwards and research and development credits and, if an adjustment is required, this adjustment would be offset by an adjustment to the valuation allowance. Thus there would be no impact to the consolidated balance sheet or statement of operations if an adjustment were required. | ||||||||||
The tax years 2000 through 2014 remain open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject, which are primarily in the United States, as carryforward attributes generated in years past may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities if they have or will be used in a future period. The Company is currently not under examination in any jurisdictions for any tax years. | ||||||||||

Litigation and Contingencies | 13. Litigation and Contingencies |
As of December 31, 2014, there were no active legal proceedings that were expected to be material to the Company. The Company makes provisions for claims specifically identified for which it believes the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and reasonably estimable. The Company records at least the minimum estimated liability related to claims where there is a range of loss and the loss is considered probable and no estimate within the range is better than any other. As additional information becomes available, the Company assesses the potential liability related to its pending claims and revises its estimates. Future revisions in the estimates of the potential liability could materially impact the results of operations and financial position. The Company maintains insurance coverage that limits the exposure for any single claim as well as total amounts incurred per policy year, and it believes that its insurance coverage is adequate. The Company makes every effort to use the best information available in determining the level of liability reserves. | |
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any claims under indemnification arrangements will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and it has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014. | |

The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 include the accounts of the Company and the Company's European subsidiaries Dyax S.A., Dyax BV and Dyax BV Holding. In 2014, Dyax S.A. and Dyax BV were dissolved. For the year ended December 31, 2014 the accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Dyax BV Holding. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. | |||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates | ||||||||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The significant estimates and assumptions in these financial statements include revenue recognition, product sales allowances, effective interest rate calculation, useful lives with respect to long lived assets, valuation of stock options, accrued expenses and tax valuation reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | |||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk | ||||||||||||||||
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and trade accounts receivable. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, approximately 98% and 89%, respectively, of the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were invested in money market funds backed by U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. Treasury notes and bills, and obligations of United States government agencies held by one financial institution. The Company maintains balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company provides most of its services and licenses its technology to pharmaceutical and biomedical companies worldwide, and makes all product sales to its distributors. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivable balances associated the Company’s development and license fee revenue are usually limited on an ongoing basis, due to the diverse number of licensees and collaborators comprising the Company's customer base. Trade receivable balances associated with the Company’s product sales are comprised of a few customers due to the Company’s limited distribution network. The Company completes ongoing credit evaluations of their customers. As of December 31, 2014, three companies accounted for 27% (Lilly), 21% (US Bioservices) and 20% (Walgreens) of the accounts receivable balance. The balance due from Lilly includes $1.7 million in unbilled accounts receivable. Two companies accounted for approximately 35% (US Bioservices) and 26% (Walgreens) of the Company's accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s two largest distributors of KABITOR are Walgreens and US Bioservices. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, sales to Walgreens were 34%, 38% and 40% of total revenue, respectively; and, sales to US Bioservices were 28%, 26% and 30% of total revenue, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Revenues from customers outside the United States, principally related to development and license agreements, were approximately 3%, 13% and 13% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents | ||||||||||||||||
All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of ninety days or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist principally of cash, money market and U.S. Treasury funds. | |||||||||||||||||
Investments | Investments | ||||||||||||||||
Short-term investments primarily consist of investments with original maturities greater than ninety days and remaining maturities less than one year at period end. The Company has also classified its investments with maturities beyond one year as short-term, based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. The Company considers its investment portfolio of investments available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices. As of December 31, 2014, the Company's investments consisted of U.S. Treasury notes and bills with an amortized cost of $165.2 million, an estimated fair value of $165.3 million, and had an unrealized gain of $28,000. As of December 31, 2013, the Company's investments consisted of United States Treasury notes and bills with an estimated fair value and amortized cost of $43.3 million, and had an unrealized gain of $3,000, which is recorded in other comprehensive income on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Inventories | Inventories | ||||||||||||||||
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined under the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, basis. The Company evaluates inventory levels and would write-down inventory that is expected to expire prior to being sold, inventory that has a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value, inventory in excess of expected sales requirements, or inventory that fails to meet commercial sale specifications, through a charge to cost of product sales. Included in the cost of inventory are capitalized employee stock-based compensation costs for those employees dedicated to manufacturing efforts. Inventory on-hand that will be sold beyond the Company's normal operating cycle is classified as non-current and grouped with other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Inventories consist principally of raw materials and work-in-process. In certain circumstances, the Company will make advance payments to vendors for future inventory deliveries. These advance payments are recorded as other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||
Fixed Assets | Fixed Assets | ||||||||||||||||
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method. Laboratory and production equipment, furniture and office equipment are depreciated over a three to seven year period. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and are amortized over the lesser of the non-cancelable term of the related lease or their estimated useful lives. Leased equipment is amortized over the lesser of the life of the lease or their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of these assets and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the balance sheet and any resulting gains or losses are included in operations in the period of disposal. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company records all proceeds received from the lessor for tenant improvements under the terms of its operating lease as deferred rent. The amounts are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease as an offset to rent expense. | |||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | ||||||||||||||||
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the undiscounted cash flow to the recorded value of the asset or asset group. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value, which is computed based on a discounted cash flow basis. | |||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’s principal sources of revenue are product sales of KALBITOR and license fees, funding for research and development, and milestones and royalties derived from collaboration and license agreements. In all instances, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations. | |||||||||||||||||
Product Sales and Allowances | Product Sales and Allowances | ||||||||||||||||
Product Sales. Product sales are generated from the sale of KALBITOR to the Company’s customers, primarily wholesale and specialty distributors, and are recorded upon delivery when title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. Product sales are recorded net of applicable reserves for distributors, prompt pay and other discounts, government rebates, patient financial assistance programs, product returns and other applicable allowances. | |||||||||||||||||
Under certain arrangements the Company has provided their distributors with extended payment terms. In these circumstances, revenue is not recognized until collectability is reasonably assured. | |||||||||||||||||
Product Sales Allowances. The Company establishes reserves for trade distributor, prompt pay and volume discounts, government rebates, patient financial assistance programs, product returns and other applicable allowances. Reserves established for these discounts and allowances are classified as a reduction of accounts receivable (if the amount is payable to the customer) or a liability (if the amount is payable to a party other than the customer). | |||||||||||||||||
Allowances against receivable balances primarily relate to prompt payment discounts and are recorded at the time of sale, resulting in a reduction in product sales revenue. Accruals related to government rebates, patient financial assistance programs, product returns and other applicable allowances are recognized at the time of sale, resulting in a reduction in product sales revenue and an increase in accrued expenses. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company maintains service contracts with its distributors. These contracts include services such as inventory maintenance and patient support services, which have included call center and on-demand nursing services. Accounting standards related to consideration given by a vendor to a customer, including a reseller of a vendor’s product, specify that each consideration given by a vendor to a customer is presumed to be a reduction of the selling price. Consideration should be characterized as a cost if the company receives, or will receive, an identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration, and fair value of the benefit can be reasonably estimated. The Company has established that patient support services are at fair value and represent a separate and identifiable benefit because these services could be provided by separate third-party vendors. Accordingly, these costs are classified as selling, general and administrative expense. | |||||||||||||||||
Fees paid to distributors for inventory maintenance are calculated as a percentage of KALBITOR sales price and accordingly, are classified as a reduction in product sales revenue. | |||||||||||||||||
Prompt Payment and Other Discounts. The Company offers a prompt payment discount to its United States distributors. Since the Company expects that these distributors will take advantage of this discount, the Company accrues 100% of the prompt payment discount that is based on the gross amount of each invoice, at the time of sale. This accrual is adjusted quarterly to reflect actual earned discounts. The Company has also offered volume discounts to certain distributors which are accrued quarterly based on sales during the period. | |||||||||||||||||
Government Rebates and Chargebacks. The Company estimates reductions to product sales for Medicaid and Veterans' Administration (VA) programs and the Medicare Part D Coverage Gap Program, as well as for certain other qualifying federal and state government programs. The Company estimates the amount of these reductions based on available KALBITOR patient data, actual sales data and rebate claims. These allowances are adjusted each period based on actual experience. | |||||||||||||||||
Medicaid rebate reserves relate to the Company’s estimated obligations to state jurisdictions under the established reimbursement arrangements of each applicable state. Rebate accruals are recorded during the same period in which the related product sales are recognized. Actual rebate amounts are determined at the time of claim by the state, and the Company will generally make cash payments for such amounts after receiving billings from the state. | |||||||||||||||||
VA rebates or chargeback reserves represent the Company’s estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products to qualified healthcare providers at a price lower than the list price charged to the Company’s distributor. The distributor will charge the Company for the difference between what the distributor pays for the product and the ultimate selling price to the qualified healthcare provider. Rebate accruals are established during the same period in which the related product sales are recognized. Actual chargeback amounts for Public Health Service are determined at the time of resale to the qualified healthcare provider from the distributor, and the Company will generally issue credits for such amounts after receiving notification from the distributor. | |||||||||||||||||
Although allowances and accruals are recorded at the time of product sale, certain rebates are typically paid out, on average, up to six months or longer after the sale. Reserve estimates are evaluated quarterly and if necessary, adjusted to reflect actual results. Any such adjustments will be reflected in the Company’s operating results in the period of the adjustment. | |||||||||||||||||
Product Returns. Allowances for product returns are recorded during the period in which the related product sales are recognized, resulting in a reduction to product revenue. The Company does not provide its distributors with a general right of product return. The Company permits returns if the product is damaged or defective when received by customers or if the product shelf life has expired. The Company estimates product returns based upon actual returns history and data provided by a distributor. | |||||||||||||||||
Patient Financial Assistance. The Company offers a financial assistance program for commercially insured KALBITOR patients in order to defray patients’ out-of-pocket expenses, including co-payments, to aid patients’ access to KALBITOR. The Company estimates its liability for this program based on actual but unpaid reimbursements, as well as, an estimated reserve for product sold to and held by distributors as of period end, based on the Company’s historical redemption rates. | |||||||||||||||||
An analysis of the amount of, and change in, reserves related to sales allowances is summarized as follows: | |||||||||||||||||

Development and License Fee Revenues | Development and License Fee Revenues | ||||||||||||||||
Collaboration Agreements. The Company enters into collaboration agreements with other companies for the research and development of therapeutic and diagnostic products. The terms of the agreements may include non-refundable signing and licensing fees, funding for research and development, payments related to manufacturing services, milestone payments and royalties on any product sales derived from collaborations. These multiple element arrangements are analyzed to determine how the deliverables, which often include license and performance obligations such as research, steering committee and manufacturing services, are separated into units of accounting. | |||||||||||||||||
For agreements entered into prior to 2011, the Company evaluated license arrangements with multiple elements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), 605-25 Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements. Since 2011, the Company has applied the guidance of ASU 2009-13 to evaluate license arrangements with multiple elements. This guidance amended the accounting standards for certain multiple element arrangements to: | |||||||||||||||||
· | Provide updated guidance on whether multiple elements exist, how the elements in an arrangement should be separated and how the arrangement considerations should be allocated to the separate elements; | ||||||||||||||||
· | Require an entity to allocate arrangement consideration to each element based on a selling price hierarchy, also called the relative selling price method, where the selling price for an element is based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE), if available; third-party evidence (TPE), if available and VSOE is not available; or the best estimate of selling price (BESP), if neither VSOE or TPE is available; and | ||||||||||||||||
· | Eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate arrangement consideration using the selling price hierarchy. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates all deliverables within an arrangement to determine whether or not they provide value to the licensee on a stand-alone basis. Based on this evaluation, the deliverables are separated into units of accounting. If VSOE or vendor objective evidence (VOE) is not available to determine the fair value of a deliverable, the Company determines the best estimate of selling price associated with the deliverable. The arrangement consideration, including upfront license fees and funding for research and development, is allocated to the separate units based on relative fair value. | |||||||||||||||||
VSOE is based on the price charged when an element is sold separately and represents the actual price charged for that deliverable. When VSOE cannot be established, the Company attempts to establish the selling price of the elements of a license arrangement based on VOE. VOE is determined based on third party evidence for similar deliverables when sold separately. In circumstances when the Company charges a licensee for pass-through costs paid to external vendors for development services, these costs represent VOE. | |||||||||||||||||
When the Company is unable to establish the selling price of an element using VSOE or VOE, management determines BESP for that element. The objective of BESP is to determine the price at which the Company would transact a sale if the element within the license agreement was sold on a stand-alone basis. The Company’s process for establishing BESP involves management’s judgment and considers multiple factors including discounted cash flows, estimated direct expenses and other costs and available data. | |||||||||||||||||
Based on the value allocated to each unit of accounting within an arrangement, upfront fees and other guaranteed payments are allocated to each unit based on relative value. The appropriate revenue recognition method is applied to each unit and revenue is accordingly recognized as each unit is delivered. | |||||||||||||||||
For agreements entered into prior to 2011, revenue related to upfront license fees was spread over the full period of performance under the agreement, unless the license was determined to provide value to the licensee on a stand-alone basis and the fair value of the undelivered performance obligations, typically including research or steering committee services was determinable. | |||||||||||||||||
Steering committee services that were not inconsequential or perfunctory and were determined to be performance obligations were combined with other research services or performance obligations required under an arrangement, if any, to determine the level of effort required in an arrangement and the period over which the Company expected to complete its aggregate performance obligations. | |||||||||||||||||
Whenever the Company determined that an arrangement should be accounted for as a single unit of accounting, it determined the period over which the performance obligations would be completed. Revenue is recognized using either an efforts-based or time-based proportional performance (i.e. straight-line) method. The Company recognizes revenue using an efforts-based proportional performance method when the level of effort required to complete its performance obligations under an arrangement can be reasonably estimated and such performance obligations are provided on a best-efforts basis. Direct labor hours or full-time equivalents are typically used as the measurement of performance. | |||||||||||||||||
If the Company cannot reasonably estimate the level of effort to complete its performance obligations under an arrangement, then revenue under the arrangement is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations. | |||||||||||||||||
Many of the Company's collaboration agreements entitle it to additional payments upon the achievement of performance-based milestones. Milestones that are tied to development or regulatory approval are not considered probable of being achieved until such approval is received. All milestones which are determined to be substantive milestones are recognized as revenue in the period in which they are met in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method. Milestones tied to counter-party performance are not included in the Company’s revenue model until performance conditions are met. Milestones determined to be non-substantive are allocated to each unit of accounting within an arrangement when met. The allocation of the milestone to each unit is based on relative value and revenue related to each unit is recognized accordingly. | |||||||||||||||||
Costs of revenues related to licensees’ product development, including license fees and development and regulatory milestones are classified as research and development in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Phage Display Library Licenses. Standard terms of the proprietary phage display library agreements generally include non-refundable signing fees, license maintenance fees, development milestone payments, product license payments and royalties on product sales. Signing fees and maintenance fees are generally recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the agreement as deliverables within these arrangements are determined to not provide the licensee with value on a stand-alone basis and therefore are accounted for as a single unit of accounting. As milestones are achieved under a phage display library license, a portion of the milestone payment, equal to the percentage of the performance period completed when the milestone is achieved, multiplied by the amount of the milestone payment, will be recognized. The remaining portion of the milestone will be recognized over the remaining performance period on a straight-line basis. If the Company has no future obligations under the license, milestone payments under these license arrangements are recognized as revenue when the milestone is achieved. Product license payments, which are optional to the licensee, are substantive and therefore are excluded from the initial allocation of the arrangement consideration. These payments are recognized as revenue when the license is issued upon exercise of the licensee’s option, if the Company has no future obligations under the agreement. If there are future obligations under the agreement, product license payments are recognized as revenue only to the extent of the fair value of the license. Amounts paid in excess of fair value are recognized in a manner similar to milestone payments. Payments received that have not met the appropriate criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as deferred revenue. | |||||||||||||||||
Phage Display Patent Licenses. The Company previously licensed its phage display patents on a non-exclusive basis to third parties for use in connection with the research and development of therapeutic, diagnostic, and other products. The core patents in this portfolio expired in November 2012. Even after patent expiration, the Company generally remains eligible under these patent licenses to receive milestones and/or royalties for products discovered prior to patent expiration, although certain existing patent licenses will no longer have a royalty obligation. The Company does not expect the expiration of these patents to have a material impact on the LFRP. | |||||||||||||||||
Standard terms of the patent rights agreements include non-refundable signing fees, non-refundable license maintenance fees, development milestone payments and/or royalties on product sales. Signing fees and maintenance fees are generally recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the agreement or through the date of patent expiry, if shorter, except that in the case of perpetual patent licenses for which fees were recognized immediately if it was determined that the Company had no future obligations under the agreement and the payments were made upfront. If the Company has no remaining performance obligations under the patent license agreement, milestones are recognized as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved. | |||||||||||||||||
LFRP Milestones | |||||||||||||||||
Non-substantive Milestones. Under the LFRP licenses, the Company is eligible to receive clinical development, regulatory filing and marketing approval milestones, which vary from licensee to licensee. Achievement of these milestones is contingent upon each licensee’s efforts and involves risks and uncertainty related to drug development, regulatory approval and intellectual property that could lead to milestones never being met. | |||||||||||||||||
Based on information available to the Company regarding pre-clinical and clinical candidates in the LFRP developed using its technology and through intellectual property rights granted, it is estimated that the Company could receive up to $81 million in development milestones, $67 million in regulatory filing milestones and $96 million in marketing approval milestones. As achievement of these milestones is outside the control of the Company and is contingent upon the licensees’ efforts, they have been determined to be non-substantive milestones. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company recognized revenue of approximately $4.5 million, $3.1 million and $3.3 million related to milestones under the LFRP for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Substantive Milestones. Under certain collaboration agreements, the Company performs funded research for various collaborators using its phage display technology and libraries. These arrangements typically include technical milestones that are based on agreed upon objectives to be met under the research campaign, which are considered to be commensurate with the Company’s performance and therefore have been determined to be substantive milestones. | |||||||||||||||||
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $327,000 for technical milestones. There was no amount recognized during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company is not eligible to receive any future technical milestones at this time. | |||||||||||||||||
Non-LFRP Milestones | |||||||||||||||||
In certain countries outside of the U.S., the Company has entered into licensing agreements for the development and commercialization of KALBITOR for the treatment of HAE and other angioedema indications. Under these agreements, the Company is eligible to receive certain development and sales milestones. See Note 3, Significant Transactions. | |||||||||||||||||
Royality Revenues | Royalty Revenue | ||||||||||||||||
Royalty revenue is recognized when it becomes determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. For royalties recognized related to CYRAMZA, the first therapeutic product in the LFRP, which is commercialized by Lilly, the Company is contractually entitled to receive a royalty report from Lilly subsequent to each quarter end. Upon initial commercialization of CYRAMZA in the second quarter of 2014, the Company recognized royalty revenue one quarter in arrears from the related sales as it has not been able to determine royalty revenue until receipt of this report. Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company has recognized royalty revenue using an estimate of the royalties earned for the quarter based on Lilly’s reported sales of CYRAMZA. | |||||||||||||||||
Cost of Product Sales and Royalties | Cost of Product Sales and Royalties | ||||||||||||||||
Cost of product sales includes costs to procure, manufacture and distribute KALBITOR and manufacturing royalties. Costs associated with the manufacture of KALBITOR prior to regulatory approval in the United States were expensed when incurred as a research and development cost and accordingly, KALBITOR units sold during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 do not include the full cost of drug manufacturing. For the year ended December 31, 2014, KALBITOR units sold included the full cost of drug manufacturing. | |||||||||||||||||
Cost of royalties is derived from pass-through fees under the Company’s cross license agreement related to royalties from product sales by its LFRP licensees. | |||||||||||||||||
Research and Development | Research and Development | ||||||||||||||||
Research and development costs include all direct costs, including salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, outside consultants, costs of clinical trials, sponsored research, clinical trials insurance, other outside costs, depreciation and facility costs related to the development of drug candidates, as well as certain pass-through costs under the Company’s cross license agreements related to product development by its LFRP licensees, including license fees and development and regulatory milestones. | |||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | Income Taxes | ||||||||||||||||
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted statutory tax rates. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors that include, but are not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves or unrecognized tax benefits that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties, if any. The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis and adjusts the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions. | |||||||||||||||||
Translation of Foreign Currencies | Translation of Foreign Currencies | ||||||||||||||||
Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated at period end exchange rates. Amounts included in the statements of operations are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. As the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are U.S. dollar functional currency denominated, local currency is remeasured in U.S. dollars and are recorded to other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recorded other expense of $33,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and other income of $14,000 and $15,000, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’s share-based compensation program consists of share-based awards granted to employees in the form of stock options and restricted stock units, as well as its 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the Purchase Plan). The Company’s share-based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with ASC 718. | |||||||||||||||||
Income or Loss Per Share | Income or Loss Per Share | ||||||||||||||||
The Company follows the two-class method when computing net loss per share, as it had issued shares that met the definition of participating securities. The two-class method determines net loss per share for each class of common and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends, as if all income for the period had been distributed. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company presents two earnings or loss per share (EPS) amounts, basic and diluted in accordance with ASC 260. Basic earnings or loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net loss per share does not differ from basic net loss per share since potential common shares from the exercise of stock options, warrants or rights under the Purchase Plan are anti-dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, and therefore, are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share. | |||||||||||||||||
The weighted average of stock options, restricted stock units and warrants outstanding totaled 12.2 million, 12.2 million and 12.3 million at December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Comprehensive Income (Loss) | ||||||||||||||||
The Company accounts for comprehensive income (loss) under ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, which established standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The statement required that all components of comprehensive income (loss) be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company is presenting comprehensive income (loss) as part of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |||||||||||||||||
Business Segments | Business Segments | ||||||||||||||||
The Company discloses business segments under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The statement established standards for reporting information about operating segments and disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company operates in one business segment as a biopharmaceutical company within predominantly one geographic area. Long-lived assets consist entirely of property and equipment and are located in the United States for all periods presented. | |||||||||||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ||||||||||||||||
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies, which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption. | |||||||||||||||||
In May 2014, the FASB issued an amendment which will replace most of the existing revenue recognition guidance within U.S. GAAP. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will be required to make certain judgments and estimates, including identifying contract performance obligations, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price among separate performance obligations. Additionally, the amendment requires disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, significant judgments reached in the application of the guidance and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. Effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2017, the amendment allows for two methods of adoption, a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is in the process of determining the method of adoption and the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||
In August 2014, the FASB issued an amendment that requires management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. The amendments in this update provide guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments in this update apply to all entities and are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||
