NOTE 14.  OUT OF PERIOD ADJUSTMENT

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company identified that it had understated the amount payable for the Branded Prescription Drug fee (BPD) relating to net sales of the NUCYNTA franchise since its acquisition in the second quarter of 2015. Accordingly, the Company recorded an adjustment during the three months ended March 31, 2017 to increase its BPD accrual relating to the net sales of the NUCYNTA franchise in the cumulative amount of $3.4 million of which $1.4 million and $2.0 million related to the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, respectively. This adjustment resulted in an increase in loss per share by $0.05 in the three months ended March 31, 2017. In accordance with the relevant guidance, management evaluated the materiality of the error from a qualitative and quantitative perspective. Based on such evaluation, we concluded that correcting the cumulative error would not be material to the expected full year results for 2017, and correcting the error would not have had a material impact on any individual prior period financial statements or affect the trend of financial results.
