ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Exelixis, Inc. (“Exelixis,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a biotechnology company committed to the discovery, development and commercialization of new medicines to improve care and outcomes for people with cancer. Since our founding in 1994, three products discovered at Exelixis have progressed through clinical development, received regulatory approval, and entered the marketplace. Two are derived from cabozantinib, an inhibitor of multiple tyrosine kinases including MET, AXL, VEGF receptors, and RET: CABOMETYX® (cabozantinib) tablets approved for advanced renal cell carcinoma (“RCC”); and COMETRIQ® (cabozantinib) capsules approved for progressive, metastatic medullary thyroid cancer. The third product, COTELLIC® (cobimetinib) tablets, is an inhibitor of MEK, marketed under a collaboration agreement with Genentech, Inc. (a member of the Roche Group) (“Genentech”), and is approved as part of a combination regimen to treat advanced melanoma. Basis of Consolidation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Exelixis and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. These entities’ functional currency is the U.S. dollar. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information and pursuant to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. We have adopted a 52- or 53-week fiscal year policy that generally ends on the Friday closest to December 31 st . Fiscal year 2018 will end on December 28, 2018 and fiscal year 2017 ended on December 29, 2017. For convenience, references in this report as of and for the fiscal periods ended June 29, 2018, March 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, and as of and for the fiscal years ended December 28, 2018 and December 29, 2017, are indicated as being as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2018, March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, and the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Similarly, references in this report to the first day of the fiscal year ended December 28, 2018 and the first day of the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2018 are indicated as being as of January 1, 2018 and April 1, 2018, respectively. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 or for any future period. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017 , included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2018 . Segment Information We operate in one business segment that focuses on discovery, development and commercialization of new medicines to improve care and outcomes for people with cancer. Our Chief Executive Officer, as the chief operating decision-maker, manages and allocates resources to our operations on a total consolidated basis. Consistent with this decision-making process, our Chief Executive Officer uses consolidated, single-segment financial information for purposes of evaluating performance, forecasting future period financial results, allocating resources and setting incentive targets. All of our long-lived assets are located in the U.S. See “Note 2. Revenues” for enterprise-wide disclosures about product sales, revenues from major customers and revenues by geographic region. Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements conforms to accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., which requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to: those related to revenue recognition, including determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, and determining the standalone selling price of performance obligations, and variable consideration such as rebates, chargebacks, sales returns and sales allowances as well as milestones included in collaboration arrangements; the amounts of revenues and expenses under our profit and loss sharing agreement; recoverability of inventory; the accrual for certain liabilities including accrued clinical trial liability; and valuations of awards used to determine stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and other relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. In addition, as a result of new information received during the six months ended June 30, 2018, as described further in “Note 3. Collaboration Revenues - Genentech Collaboration”, we have reclassified the $1.4 million in profit on the U.S. commercialization of COTELLIC for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from Selling, general and administrative expenses to Collaboration revenue in preparing our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018. As a result of this reclassification, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, Collaboration revenues increased from $78.1 million to $79.4 million , Net revenues increased from $212.3 million to $213.7 million , Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $52.6 million to $54.0 million and Operating expenses increased from $96.0 million to $97.4 million . There was no impact on Net income or Net income per share as a result of this reclassification. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Restricted Cash In January 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), (“ASU 2016-18”) . ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 was adopted using the r etrospective transition method in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements . As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-18, we no longer include purchases of restricted cash and proceeds from maturities of restricted cash in our cash flows from investing activities. Accordingly, the adoption of ASU 2016-18 resulted in a $0.5 million increase in Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . See “Note 4. Cash and Investments - Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash” for a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents presented in our previously published Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the same period. Revenue On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“Topic 606”) using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under previous revenue recognition guidance, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605: Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”) . We recorded a net reduction of $258.5 million to opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2018 , due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily relating to a change in the recognition of upfront and non-substantive milestone payments received related to our collaboration arrangements with Ipsen Pharma SAS (“Ipsen”) and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Ltd. (“Takeda”) . The adoption of Topic 606 did not have an impact on our recognition of revenue from product sales. The impact of the adoption of Topic 606 on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 1, 2018 was as follows (in thousands): December 31, 2017 Adjustments Due to the Adoption of Topic 606 January 1, 2018 Contract assets: unbilled collaboration revenue, gross: Current portion $ — $ 9,588 $ 9,588 Long-term portion $ — $ 12,247 $ 12,247 Contract liabilities: deferred revenue, gross: Current portion $ 31,984 $ (23,591 ) $ 8,393 Long-term portion $ 238,520 $ (213,079 ) $ 25,441 Accumulated deficit $ (1,829,172 ) $ 258,505 $ (1,570,667 ) The adjustments due to the adoption of Topic 606 primarily related to a reduction in deferred revenue driven by the allocation of the transaction price to our license performance obligations in the Ipsen and Takeda collaborations, which were determined to be functional intellectual property that was transferred at a point in time and as a result, revenue was recorded at a point in time. Previously under Topic 605, revenue related to the upfront payments and one non-substantive milestone payment earned in 2016 had been deferred over the estimated period of performance pursuant to the terms of the contract. Contract assets as of January 1, 2018 primarily related to estimated revenue for reimbursements for our continuing research and development services and the $10.0 million milestone from Ipsen’s filing with the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) for cabozantinib, as a treatment for patients with previously treated advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (“ HCC”), that was deemed probable under Topic 606 prior to January 1, 2018 . D eferred revenue as of January 1, 2018 is related to the up-front, nonrefundable, fees and milestones achieved that were allocated to our r esearch and development services performance obligation that had not been satisfied as of that date . Contract assets and liabilities are netted by collaboration agreement in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets; however, for illustration purposes the above amounts are shown prior to netting. The impact of the adoption of Topic 606 on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as of and for three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 As Reported Balances Without the Adoption of Topic 606 Effect of Adoption Higher / (Lower) Collaboration revenues $ 40,272 $ 94,420 $ (54,148 ) Total revenues $ 186,108 $ 240,256 $ (54,148 ) Income before income taxes $ 88,395 $ 142,543 $ (54,148 ) Provision for income taxes $ 901 $ 1,906 $ (1,005 ) Net income $ 87,494 $ 140,637 $ (53,143 ) Net income per share, basic $ 0.29 $ 0.47 $ (0.18 ) Net income per share, diluted $ 0.28 $ 0.45 $ (0.17 ) Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 As Reported Balances Without the Adoption of Topic 606 Effect of Adoption Higher / (Lower) Collaboration revenues $ 119,719 $ 142,469 $ (22,750 ) Total revenues $ 399,827 $ 422,577 $ (22,750 ) Income before income taxes $ 206,766 $ 229,516 $ (22,750 ) Provision for income taxes $ 3,415 $ 3,529 $ (114 ) Net income $ 203,351 $ 225,987 $ (22,636 ) Net income per share, basic $ 0.68 $ 0.76 $ (0.08 ) Net income per share, diluted $ 0.65 $ 0.72 $ (0.07 ) Collaboration revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 recognized in accordance with Topic 606 included $0.2 million and $46.0 million in revenue, respectively, for a $50.0 million milestone from Ipsen for the approval of cabozantinib for the first-line treatment of advanced RCC. We recognized $45.8 million in revenue for this milestone in the first quarter of 2018 when we deemed achievement of the milestone was probable in accordance with Topic 606. If we had not adopted Topic 606, we would have recognized the e ntire $50.0 million milestone as revenue in the second quarter of 2018 upon achievement of the milestone. If we had not adopted Topic 606, we would also have recognized a $10.0 million milestone in the first quarter of 2018 upon the validation of Ipsen’s filing with the EMA for cabozantinib as a treatment for patients with previously treated advanced HCC that was recognized under Topic 606 as part of our adoption transition adjustment on January 1, 2018. The adoption of Topic 606 also resulted in a reduction of previously deferred revenue that was recorded as part of our adoption transition adjustment as of January 1, 2018. Revenue Topic 606 supersedes all previous revenue recognition requirements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This standard applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards, such as leases, insurance, collaboration arrangements and financial instruments. Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity is entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that we determine are within the scope of Topic 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. We only apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer. Net Product Revenues We sell our products principally to specialty distributors and specialty pharmacy providers, or collectively, our Customers. These Customers subsequently resell our products to health care providers and patients. In addition to distribution agreements with Customers, we enter into arrangements with health care providers and payors that provide for government-mandated and/or privately-negotiated rebates, chargebacks and discounts with respect to the purchase of our products. Revenues from product sales are recognized when the Customer obtains control of our product, which occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery to the Customer. Product Sales Discounts and Allowances Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established and that result from discounts, chargebacks, rebates, co-pay assistance, returns and other allowances that are offered within contracts between us and our Customers, health care providers, payors and other indirect customers relating to the sales of our products. These reserves are based on the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales and are classified as reductions of accounts receivable (if the amount is payable to the Customer) or a current liability (if the amount is payable to a party other than a Customer). Where appropriate, these estimates take into consideration a range of possible outcomes that are probability-weighted for relevant factors such as our historical experience, current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data and forecasted Customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled based on the terms of the contract. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained, and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from our estimates. If actual results in the future vary from our estimates, we will adjust these estimates, which would affect net product revenues and earnings in the period such variances become known. Chargebacks: Chargebacks are discounts that occur when contracted customers purchase directly from a specialty distributor. Contracted customers, which currently consist primarily of Public Health Service institutions, non-profit clinics, Federal government entities purchasing via the Federal Supply Schedule and Group Purchasing Organizations, and health maintenance organizations, generally purchase the product at a discounted price. The specialty distributor, in turn, charges back to us the difference between the price initially paid by the specialty distributor and the discounted price paid to the specialty distributor by the customer. The allowance for chargebacks is based on an estimate of sales to contracted customers. Discounts for Prompt Payment: Our Customers in the U.S. receive a discount of 2% for prompt payment. We expect our Customers will earn 100% of their prompt payment discounts and, therefore, we deduct the full amount of these discounts from total product sales when revenues are recognized. Rebates: Allowances for rebates include mandated discounts under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program and other government programs. Rebate amounts owed after the final dispensing of the product to a benefit plan participant are based upon contractual agreements or legal requirements with public sector benefit providers, such as Medicaid. The allowance for rebates is based on statutory discount rates and expected utilization. Our estimates for the expected utilization of rebates are based on customer and payer data received from the specialty pharmacies and distributors and historical utilization rates. Rebates are generally invoiced by the payer and paid in arrears, such that the accrual balance consists of an estimate of the amount expected to be incurred for the current quarter’s shipments to our customers, plus an accrual balance for known prior quarters’ unpaid rebates. If actual future rebates vary from estimates, we may need to adjust our accruals, which would affect net product revenues in the period of adjustment. Allowances for rebates also include amounts related to the Medicare Part D Coverage Gap Discount Program. In the U.S., the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit mandates participating manufacturers to fund 50% of the Medicare Part D insurance coverage gap for prescription drugs sold to eligible patients. Our estimates for expected Medicare Part D coverage gap amounts are based on customer and payer data received from specialty pharmacies and distributors and historical utilization rates. Funding of the coverage gap is invoiced and paid in arrears so that the accrual balance consists of an estimate of the amount expected to be incurred for the current quarter’s shipments to patients, plus an accrual balance for known prior quarters’ unpaid claims. If actual future funding varies from estimates, we may need to adjust our accruals, which would affect net product revenues in the period of adjustment. Co-payment Assistance: Patients who have commercial insurance and meet certain eligibility requirements may receive co-payment assistance. We accrue a liability for co-payment assistance based on actual program participation and estimates of program redemption using customer data provided by the specialty distributor that administers the copay program. Other Customer Credits: We pay fees to our Customers for account management, data management and other administrative services. To the extent the services received are distinct from the sale of products to the Customer, these payments are classified in Selling, general and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Collaboration Revenues We enter into collaboration arrangements, under which we license certain rights to our intellectual property to third parties. The terms of these arrangements typically include payment to us for one or more of the following: non-refundable, up-front license fees; development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments; payments for product supply; development cost reimbursements; profit sharing arrangements; and royalties on net sales of licensed products . Except for profit sharing arrangements and payments for product supply, each of these payment types are within the scope of Topic 606. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we must develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the standalone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. These key assumptions may include forecasted revenues, clinical development timelines and costs, reimbursement rates for personnel costs, discount rates and probabilities of technical and regulatory success. Up-front License Fees: If the license to our intellectual property is determined to be distinct from the other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, we recognize revenues from nonrefundable, up-front fees allocated to the license when the license is transferred to the licensee and the licensee is able to use and benefit from the license. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, we utilize judgment to assess the nature of the combined performance obligation to determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time and, if over time, the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from non-refundable, up-front fees. We evaluate the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjust the measure of performance and related revenue recognition. Regulatory and Development Milestone Payments: At the inception of each arrangement that includes development milestone payments, we evaluate whether the milestones are considered probable of being reached and estimate the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within our or the licensee’s control, such as regulatory approvals, are not considered probable of being achieved until uncertainty associated with the approvals has been resolved. The transaction price is then allocated to each performance obligation, on a relative standalone selling price basis, for which we recognize revenue as or when the performance obligations under the contract are satisfied. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of achieving such development and regulatory milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjust our estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis, which would affect Collaboration revenues and earnings in the period of adjustment. Product Supply Services: Arrangements that include a promise for future supply of drug product for either clinical development or commercial supply at the licensee’s discretion are generally considered as options. We assess if these options provide a material right to the licensee and if so, they are accounted for as separate performance obligations. Development Cost Reimbursements: Our Ipsen and Takeda arrangements include promises of future clinical development and drug safety services, as well as participation on certain joint committees. We have determined that these services collectively are distinct from the licenses provided to Ipsen and Takeda and as such, these promises are accounted for as a separate performance obligation recorded over time. We record revenue for these services as the performance obligations are satisfied, which we estimate using internal development costs incurred and projections through the term of the arrangements. Profit Sharing Arrangements: Under the terms of our collaboration agreement with Genentech for cobimetinib, we are entitled to a share of U.S. profits and losses received in connection with commercialization of cobimetinib. We are also entitled to low double-digit royalties on ex-U.S. net sales. We account for such arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 808, Collaborative Arrangements (“Topic 808”). We have determined that we are an agent under the agreement and therefore revenues are recorded net of costs incurred. We record U.S. profits and losses under the collaboration agreement in the period earned based on our estimate of those amounts. We expect to recognize an annual profit under the agreement for the year ended December 31, 2018 and accordingly, those profits are recognized as Collaboration revenues on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Historically, we had not recognized a profit for any annual period from the commercialization of cobimetinib in the U.S. and accordingly, losses for periods prior to 2018 were recognized as Selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Sales-based Milestone Payments and Royalties: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the volume of sales, the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties or sales-based milestones relate and we recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied). Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), (“ASU 2016-02”) . Under ASU 2016-02, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. ASU 2016-02 will require a right-of-use asset to be recognized on the balance sheet for both types of leases. ASU 2016-02 also will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. ASU 2016-02 must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements (“ASU No. 2018-11”) . In issuing ASU No. 2018-11, the FASB is permitting another transition method for ASU 2016-02, which allows the transition to the new lease standard by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. We are currently considering the potential of an early adoption of this standard in the second half of 2018 using the transition method permitted by ASU 2018-11 . Based on our initial evaluation of the impact of ASU 2016-02 on our build-to-suit lease of office and research facilities located in Alameda, California, we expect that the amount we have capitalized as Property and equipment related to the building shells and related financing liabilities, will be derecognized upon the adoption of ASU 2016-02. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 we will also be required to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability related to this lease. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 could also change the nature of future expenses related to the build-to-suit lease, reducing future depreciation and interest expense, which would be offset by an increase in lease expense. We are continuing to assess the impact of ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements. |
