Independent Auditor’s Report

 

 

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Regentys Corporation

Miami Lakes, Florida

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Regentys Corporation (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

 

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

 Regentys Corporation

Notes to Financial Statements. 

 

 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Regentys Corporation (the “Company” or “Regentys”), formerly known as Asana Medical, Inc., was incorporated in the state of Florida and commenced activities on May 14, 2013.

 

The Company is an early-stage, regenerative medicine-based company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative medical devices for gastrointestinal application. The Company’s lead product, ExtraCellular Matrix Hydrogel (“ECMH”), targets the treatment of multiple gastrointestinal diseases, including Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s Disease, and Rectal Mucositis.

 

The Company is headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and has an accumulated deficit as a result of ongoing efforts to develop product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical trials and providing general and administrative support for these operations. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, net loss incurred of approximately $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $3.7 million and $2.6 million, respectively. The Company does not believe its cash of approximately $28,000 as of December 31, 2017 is sufficient to fund its operations for the next twelve months. In addition, the Company amended its settlement agreement with investors in December 31, 2018, extending the settlement date from December 31, 2018 to February 15, 2019. As of March 25, 2019, the Company is in process of negotiating the extension of the due date for the remaining principal balance and accrued interest on notes payable that the Company agreed to redeem of approximately $328,000 (see Note 5). These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company expects to continue to incur additional substantial losses in the foreseeable future as a result of the Company’s research and development activities. The Company plans to finance operations through equity or debt financing arrangements, and/or third-party collaboration funding. Additional funding will be required in the future to maintain its present and proposed research activities. There can be no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet its working capital needs in the future, it will be forced to delay or reduce the scope of its research programs and/or limit, the settlement of its maturing obligations or cease its operations.

 

On November 28, 2018, the Company and Generex Biotechnology Corporation (“Generex”) entered into a binding letter of intent contemplating Generex’s acquisition of 51% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company for a total consideration of $15 million (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was effective January 7, 2019, wherein the Company issued 12,048,161 common shares to Generex (“Generex shares”) constituting 51% of the capital stock of the Company. The Company received an upfront payment of $0.4 million from Generex in November 2018.

 

When the acquisition closed on January 7, 2019, Generex issued a promissory note in favor of the Company for the remaining balance of $14.6 million subject to 4% interest rate per annum, payable in five (5) installment payments as follows in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement (SPA), with the proceeds intended to be used for specific purposes:

 

 10 

 

 

(a) Guaranteed payments:

 

(i)$3,450,000 – to initiate pre-clinical activities, payable on or about January 15, 2019, of which $650,000 was received by the Company and the remaining balance of $2,800,000 is payable on or before April 1, 2019 (see Note 13)
(ii)$2,000,000 – to initiate patient recruitment activities, payable on or about May 1, 2019
(iii)$3,000,000 – to initiate a first in-human pilot study, payable on or about September 1, 2019

 

(b) Incremental payments

 

(i)$5,000,000 – to initiate a human pivotal study, payable on or about February 1, 2020
(ii)$1,150,000 – to submit a 510(k) de novo submission to the FDA, payable on or about February 1, 2021

 

In the event that Generex fails to make full payment when due of the Guaranteed Payments, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the option to (i) forfeit all of Generex’s shares OR (ii) demand and receive freely tradeable common shares of Generex equivalent to 110% of the value of the missing Guaranteed Payment with the Company facilitating the disposition of same in ordinary trading activities and in accordance with all state and federal securities laws, rules and regulations and exchange requirements. In the event any Incremental Payment is not paid when due, (i) Generex’s ownership interest in the Company shall be automatically and proportionally reduced based upon the amount of the purchase price actually paid and (ii) such Generex’s share certificate shall be returned by Generex to the Company for reissuance and failing that, the Company shall be entitled to automatically adjust Generex’s ownership interest on the books of the Company.

 

Should Generex fail to cure a default on its Incremental Payments with in sixty (60) days from due date, the Company is entitled in its sole discretion to pursue alternative sources of capital without regard to any pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal, or anti-dilution protections otherwise available to Generex.

 

In the event that the Financial Statements indicated in the SPA are not delivered to Generex within sixty (60) calendar days of the Closing Date, which date was March 8, 2019, Generex shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to rescind the stock purchase transaction, in which event (i) the Milestone Payment and any Guaranteed Payments and Incremental Payments made prior to such rescission will be forthwith due and repayable by the Company to Generex.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with US GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to accrued research and development expenses, redeemable convertible preferred stock, convertible debt and warrants, valuation of deferred tax assets, and stock-based compensation. The Company bases its estimates on its historical experience and also on assumptions that it believes are reasonable; however, actual results could significantly differ from those estimates.

 

 11 

 

 

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company's business is subject to significant risks common to early-stage companies in the medical device industry including, but not limited to, the ability to develop appropriate formulations, scale up and production of the product, dependence on collaborative parties, uncertainties associated with obtaining and enforcing patents, clinical success, the lengthy and expensive regulatory approval process, compliance with regulatory requirements, competition from other products; uncertainty of broad adoption of its approved products, if any, by physicians and patients; significant competition; ability to manage third-party manufacturers, suppliers and contract research organizations (“CROs”) and obtaining additional financing to fund the Company's efforts.

 

The product candidates developed by the Company require approvals from the FDA and foreign regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales in the United States or foreign jurisdictions, respectively. There can be no assurance that the Company’s current and future product candidates will receive the necessary approvals. If the Company is denied approval or approval is delayed, it may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and its financial condition.

 

The Company expects to incur substantial operating losses for the next several years and will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete clinical studies and launch and commercialize any product candidates for which it receives regulatory approval.

 

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in a timely transaction with an independent counter-party in the principal market or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. A three-tier hierarchy is established to distinguish between (1) inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2) inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs); and establishes a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.

 

The hierarchy is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

 

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.)

 

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities)

 

 12 

 

 

The Company’s cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable carrying amounts as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and/or market rates of interest.

 

Cash

Cash consists primarily of cash on deposit.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

 

The Company classifies as equity any contracts that require physical settlement or net-share settlement or provide it a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in Company’s own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement) provided that such contracts are indexed to our own stock as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.

 

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Redeemable convertible preferred stock is classified as a mezzanine instrument outside of the Company’s equity accounts. The carrying value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock is being accreted to equal its redemption value at the end of each reporting period, with changes in redemption value recognized immediately as they occur.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock options granted to employees and non-employees under the Company's stock option plan are accounted for by using a fair value based method. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are measured based on their fair values at the date of grant and recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite employee service period. The fair value of share-based payments to non-employees is estimated at each reporting period, until a measurement date is reached, and recorded as goods are provided or as service is provided.

 

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 will be effective for private business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted.

 

The Company is eligible and has decided to early adopt the provisions of ASU 2018-07 effective January 1, 2017, wherein the Company is required to remeasure the unvested options as of adoption date and no subsequent remeasurement is required. The remeasurement of the value of the unvested options on January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact and thus the early adoption of ASU 2018-07 has no cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit as of the beginning of the year of adoption.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In conjunction with the early adoption of ASU 2018-07, effective January 1, 2017, the Company early adopted  ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“Topic 606” or “ASU 2014-09”) using the modified retrospective method which consisted of applying and recognizing the cumulative effect of Topic 606 at the date of initial application. Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in  ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”), including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the ASC. All periods prior to the adoption date of Topic 606 have not been restated to reflect the impact of the adoption of Topic 606, but continue to be accounted for and presented under Topic 605.

 13 

 

To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs 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) the Company satisfies the performance obligations. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct and determines those that are performance obligations. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

To date, the Company’s products have not been approved for sale by the FDA and the Company has not generated or recognized any revenue from the sale of products.

 

The early adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are charged to expense when incurred and consist of costs incurred for independent and collaborative research and development activities. The major components of research and development costs include product development and allocations of various overhead and occupancy costs.

Patent and Patent Application Costs 

Although the Company believes that its patents and underlying formulation technology have continuing value, the amount of future benefits to be derived from patents is uncertain. Patent costs, including legal expenses, are therefore expensed in the period in which they are incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method as required by ASC 740, Income Taxes. This approach recognizes the amount of federal, state and local taxes payable or refundable for the current year, as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events recognized in the financial statements and income tax returns. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted to recognize the effects of changes in tax laws or enacted tax rates in the period during which they are signed into law.

 

A valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized through generating sufficient future taxable income.

ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by defining the criterion an individual tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of the tax position to be recognized in financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP. The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the tax position.

 

The tax benefit recognized in the financial statements from such a tax position should be measured based on the largest benefit having a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority. Additionally, ASC 740 provides guidance on measurement, de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

In accordance with the disclosure requirements, the Company’s policy on statements of operations classification of interest and penalties related to income tax obligations is to include such items as part of interest expense and other expenses, respectively. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions and therefore has not recognized any interest or penalty obligations to federal or state taxing authorities.

 

3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”), which will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 for public companies and for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for private companies. ASU 2016-15 will require adoption on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2016, and there was no material impact to the Company’s financial statements as a result of the adoption.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 is aimed at making leasing activities more transparent and comparable, and requires substantially all leases be recognized by lessees on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability, including leases currently accounted for as operating leases. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018 for public companies and for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for private companies. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. The Company expects to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on its balance sheet for the discounted value of future lease payments from the adoption of this ASU. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had aggregate future minimum lease payments of approximately $0.1 million. The Company is currently evaluating the full impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

5. NOTES PAYABLE

 

Series B Notes

 

In February 2017, the Company initiated a Series B debt offering pursuant to which the Company issued unsecured note subscription agreements (Series B Notes) bearing interest at 8% per annum with one year maturity date. The Series B Notes and all accrued interest will automatically convert into Series B Convertible Preferred Shares at a discount to the preferred share price upon completion of a Series B financing or at maturity at the Company’s option. The Company determined that the Series B Notes were share-settled debt and as such accreted the notes to their redemption value over their term. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued Series B Notes with principal amount and redemption value of approximately $593,000 and $686,000, respectively.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized the accrual of interest of approximately $33,000 and accretion to redemption value as interest expense of approximately $74,000 in the statements of operations. As of December 31, 2017, the carrying value of the Series B Notes, including accrued interest, amounted to approximately $700,000.

 

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, the Company extended its Series B Notes offering to existing investors. In October 2018, the Company entered into a settlement and mutual release agreements (Settlement Agreement) with certain Series B investors, of approximately $405,000 in principal, whereby the Company agreed to repay the investors the principal and interest from investment date to September 30, 2018 of 8% interest per annum and from October 31, 2018 until final settlement date, which is on or before December 31, 2018, of 16% per annum. On October 12, 2018, the Company agreed to pay the investors an additional interest of 8% per annum for the month of October 2018. On December 28, 2018, the Settlement Agreement was amended by extending the settlement date to February 15, 2019 and the payment of interest at 16% per annum until settlement date. As of March 25, 2019, the Company is in process of negotiating the extension of the due date for the remaining principal balance and accrued interest of approximately $328,000. 

 

The remaining Series B investors agreed to convert their principal of approximately $187,000 and accrued interest, with interest rate of 8% from investment date to September 30, 2018 and 16% from October 1, 2018 to October 31, 2018, into common shares at conversion price ranging from $0.99 per share to $1.12 per share, with conversion date that is yet to be determined by the Company (see Note 13).

Series A Notes

 

In September 2014, the Company initiated a convertible debt offering pursuant to which the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes (the "Series A Notes"), bearing interest at 12% with six (6) months minimum guaranteed interest, and one (1) year maturity date. At the holders' option, the Series A Notes and related accrued interest are convertible into shares of Series A Preferred Stock at 80% of the Series A Preferred Stock price. The Series A Notes and accrued interest will automatically convert into shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon completion of a qualified financing at 80% of the Series A Preferred Stock price. Upon maturity, the Series A Notes and accrued interest are convertible into shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the shares’ then fair value. The Series A Notes also provide for the issuance of detachable warrants to acquire common stock. The warrants were exercisable for a term of 18 months at an exercise price of $1.50 per share.

 

On May 4, 2016, the Company fixed the conversion price of the Series A Notes at $0.65 per preferred share less 20% discount and set November 12, 2017 as the maturity date of all detachable warrants. The Company determined that the impact of the amendment was not material.

 

In June 2016, the Company completed the Series A Note financing and issued a total Series A Notes principal of approximately $1,285,000 Notes and 653,000 detachable warrants. The aggregate relative fair values of the Series A Notes and detachable warrants at their respective issuance dates were approximately $1,231,000 and $55,000, respectively.

 

The Company recorded the relative fair value of warrants as a reduction to the Series A Notes and amortized over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method. The warrants were accounted for as equity and recorded in additional paid in capital.

 

All Series A noteholders agreed to the Company’s offer to convert their Series A Notes and accrued interest into 2,793,000 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock effective June 30, 2016 at $0.52 per share. The Company’s offer includes a guaranteed minimum interest of twelve (12) months for Series A Notes issued and outstanding for less than one (1) year, which resulted in a debt conversion inducement charge of approximately $64,000. At conversion date, the carrying value of the Series A Notes, including accrued and unpaid interest, converted into 2,793,000 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock amounting to approximately $1,413,000.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized interest expense including accretion of discounts and debt conversion inducement expense of approximately $88,000 and $64,000, respectively.

 

All stock purchase warrants expired unexercised on November 12, 2017 and no Series A notes are outstanding as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. 

 

6. REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

 

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016 the Company has authorized 2,793,000 shares of redeemable Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock A”), with a par value of $0.0001 and redemption value of $0.65 per share.

 

 17 

 

 

Redeemable convertible preferred stock consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

   Number of shares  Carrying
Value
Issuance of Preferred Stock A through conversion of Series A Notes (See Note 5)    2,793   $1,413
Accretion of Preferred Stock A to redemption value    —     403
     2,793   $1,816

 

The rights, preferences and privileges of the convertible preferred stock are as follows:

 

Dividends

 

The holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive cash dividends, which shall be payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. No dividends shall be paid or declared, and no distribution shall be made, on or with respect to the Common Stock or any other junior class or series of capital stock, as long as the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has not declared any dividends. 

 

Liquidation Preference

 

Upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the preferred stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution an amount equal to $0.65 per share, plus any dividends accrued or declared but unpaid, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any common stock or any other junior class or series of capital stock. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Series A Preferred Stock liquidation value amounted to approximately $1,816,000.

 

Conversion

 

Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock at the initial conversion ratio of 1:1 which ratio shall be adjusted in accordance with stock dividends, splits, combinations and other similar events, including the sale of additional shares of common or preferred stock. Each share of the Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of common stock, at the applicable conversion ratio of each series of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock then in effect, upon (i) a qualified public offering with net proceeds of not less than $10 million, subject to appropriate adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization, or (ii) the date specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of at least two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock voting on an as-if-converted to Common Stock basis.

 

Redemption

 

At any time after November 1, 2026, the holders of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of their shares for cash at a redemption price equal to its liquidation value. Accordingly, the Series A Preferred shares are included within temporary or mezzanine equity on the Balance Sheet. 

 

 18 

 

 

Voting Rights

 

The holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, together with the holders of common stock, on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote. Holders of Preferred Stock have the right to vote the number of shares equal to the number of shares of common stock into which such Preferred Stock could convert on the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote. 

 

7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company created the Asana Medical, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) to compensate and attract top talent. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the total shares authorized under the 2013 Plan were 2,328,750 shares. The Board of Directors or a designated Committee of the Board is responsible for the administration of the 2013 Plan and determines the term, exercise price, and vesting terms of each option. Under the terms of existing awards, all stock option grants expire ten years from grant date.

 

A summary of all stock option activity under the 2013 Plan is presented below (in thousands except of price per amounts):

 

   Shares  Weighted Average Exercise Price 

Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life

(In Years)

Outstanding at January 1, 2016   1,028   $0.30      
Granted   90    0.41      
Exercised   —      —        
Forfeited   —      —        
Outstanding at December 31, 2016   1,118   $0.31      
Granted   159    0.71      
Exercised   —      —        
Forfeited   —      —        
Outstanding at December 31, 2017   1,277    0.35      
Options vested and exercisable at December 31, 2016   810   $0.30    6.24 
Options vested and exercisable at December 31, 2017   978   $0.34    6.51 

 

At December 31, 2017 and 2016, 942,000 and 501,000 common shares, respectively, were available for grant under the Company’s stock option plan. No stock options were exercised during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

 19 

 

 

Total stock-based compensation expense related to stock options granted under the 2013 Plan was allocated as follows (in thousands):

 

   Year Ended December 31,
   2017
Research and development  $34   $29 
General and administrative   19    19 
Total stock-based compensation expense  $53   $48 

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards. The determination of the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model is affected by the value of the Company’s stock price, as well as assumptions regarding subjective variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends.

 

The Company uses the “simplified method” in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, “Share-Based Payment”, and SAB No. 110, “Simplified Method for Plain Vanilla Share Options”, to develop the expected term of stock option awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options. Under this approach, the expected term of the option grant is presumed to be the midpoint between the vesting date and the contractual end of the option grant. The expected term of all other stock options granted is based on the Company’s historical share option exercise experience, which approximates the midpoint between the vesting date and the contractual end of the option grant. The Company estimates volatility of the common stock by using the average share fluctuations of companies similar in size, operations, and life cycle. The risk-free interest rates used in the valuation model are based on U.S. Treasury issues with remaining terms similar to the expected term on the options. The Company does not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore used an expected dividend yield of zero.

 

Management has estimated the forfeiture rate at zero based on past experience and the individuals receiving the options. The Company will monitor actual forfeiture experience, and will periodically update forfeiture estimates based on actual experience.

 

All stock options granted to employees and non-employee directors were vested as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. No new stock options were granted to employees and nonemployee directors during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

Stock Options Granted to Nonemployees

 

Nonemployee stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, were 159,000 stock options and 90,000 stock options, respectively. 

 

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was total unrecognized compensation expense of approximately $61,000 and $86,000, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 2.07 years and 1.92 years, respectively.

 

 20 

 

 

The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock options granted to nonemployees under the 2009 Plan are as follows, presented on a weighted average basis:

 

   2017  2016
Expected term (in years)   3.82    4.5 
Expected volatility   122.67%   110.37%
Risk free interest rate   1.51%   1.91%
Expected dividend yield   —  %   —  %

 

8. STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

As of December 31, 2017, the Company had authorized 17,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

 

The Company has reserved authorized shares of common stock for future issuance at December 31, 2017 and 2016 as follows (in thousands):

 

   2017  2016
Conversion of Preferred Stock A   2,793    2,793 
Common stock options outstanding   1,277    1,118 
Options available for grant under the 2013 Plan   942    501 
    5,012    4,412 

 

9. INCOME TAXES

 

In accordance with the authoritative guidance for income taxes under ASC 740, Income taxes, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the difference between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates, which will be in effect when these differences reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets unless, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

 

The Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the financial statements only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as income tax expense. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, there are no unrecognized tax benefits nor any significant accruals for interest related to unrecognized tax benefits or tax penalties.

 

The Company is subject to taxation and files income tax returns in the United States and in the state of Florida. All tax years from inception to date are subject to examination by the U.S. and state tax authorities due to the carry-forward of unutilized net operating losses and research and development credits. Currently, no years are under examination.

 

 21 

 

 

Recognition of deferred tax assets is appropriate when realization of such assets is more likely than not. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax asset.

 

The Company has established a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty that such assets will be realized.

 

Deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 of approximately $880,000 and $910,000, respectively, comprises primarily of deferred tax on state and federal net operation loss, which was entirely offset by the Company’s full valuation allowance. 

 

On December 22, 2017, the United States enacted tax reform legislation known as the H.R.1, commonly referred to as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (the “Act”), resulting in significant modifications to existing law.

 

The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will apply in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or paid. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2017, the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities were remeasured to reflect the provisions of the 2017 Tax Act and reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate from the highest graduated tax of 35 % to a 21 % flat tax. As a result of the changes to tax laws and tax rates under the Act, the Company has recorded a provisional one-time reduction in income tax expense of approximately $487,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017, which consists primarily of the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities from 35% to 21%, but was entirely offset by the Company’s full valuation allowance.

 

10. LICENSE AGREEMENTS

 

The Company enters into licensing agreements with universities and other research related entities for the exclusive right to commercially develop, produce, manufacture, use, and sell certain products and methods of use thereof. Typically, the license agreements are effective through the later of (i) the end of the term of the last-to-expire of licensor’s patent rights licensed under the license agreements, or (ii) ten years after the first sale of the first licensed product if no patent has issued from the patent rights.

 

In May 2015, the Company executed a license agreement with the University of Pittsburgh for a worldwide, exclusive license to manufacture, market, sell and sublicense Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel based upon certain patents, with a field of use, limited to human and animal colonic and small intestine therapeutic indications. The agreement includes annual maintenance fee due to University of Pittsburgh ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 and patent cost reimbursement. For the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, expenses incurred for patent cost reimbursement including legal fees for the protection of intellectual property and reported as part of General and administrative expenses in the statements of operations of approximately $169,000 and $212,000, respectively.

 

 22 

 

 

In addition, the agreement includes payments due to University of Pittsburgh ranging from $75,000 to $1,950,000 based on successful achievement of certain product development milestones. Additionally, the Company may have royalty payments ranging from 3.5% to 4% of net sales of any product developed from the Inventions and 10% to 20% on non-royalty income. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had not reached any of the milestones.

 

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company leases its office from Global Resource Partners, Inc. (GRP), a stockholder of the Company and controlled by the Company’s Head of Finance (see Note 12). The extended lease term will expire on August 3, 2019.

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, on March 27, 2018, Dr. Christine Sapan (Dr. Sapan) resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Sapan, who is also a stockholder of the Company, had vested options to purchase 252,000 common shares valued at approximately $55,000 with an exercise price of $0.41 pursuant to the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. As part of the agreement, Dr. Sapan waived her right to purchase 250,000 shares and exercised her right to purchase 2,000 common shares of the Company for approximately $820. In addition, Dr. Sapan waived any and all back salary and benefits due to her through March 27, 2018 of approximately $267,000 including the unpaid portion of the amounts accrued as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 of approximately $205,000, which was recognized as capital contribution and recorded in additional paid capital. 

 

 23

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Regentys Corporation (the “Company” or “Regentys”), formerly known as Asana Medical, Inc., was incorporated in the state of Florida and commenced activities on May 14, 2013.

 

The Company is an early-stage, regenerative medicine-based company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative medical devices for gastrointestinal application. The Company’s lead product, ExtraCellular Matrix Hydrogel (“ECMH”), targets the treatment of multiple gastrointestinal diseases, including Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s Disease, and Rectal Mucositis.

 

The Company is headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and has an accumulated deficit as a result of ongoing efforts to develop product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical trials and providing general and administrative support for these operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, net loss incurred of approximately $1.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $4.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively. The Company does not believe its cash of approximately $2,000 as of September 30, 2018 is sufficient to fund its operations for the next twelve months. As of March 25, 2019, the Company is in process of negotiating the extension of the due date for the remaining principal balance and accrued interest on notes payable that the Company agreed to redeem of approximately $328,000 (see Note 5). These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company expects to continue to incur additional substantial losses in the foreseeable future as a result of the Company’s research and development activities. The Company plans to finance operations through equity or debt financing arrangements, and/or third-party collaboration funding. Additional funding will be required in the future to maintain its present and proposed research activities. There can be no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet its working capital needs in the future, it will be forced to delay or reduce the scope of its research programs and/or limit, the settlement of its maturing obligations or cease its operations.

 

On November 28, 2018, the Company and Generex Biotechnology Corporation (“Generex”) entered into a binding letter of intent contemplating Generex’s acquisition of 51% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company for a total consideration of $15 million (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was effective January 7, 2019, wherein the Company issued 12,048,161 common shares to Generex (“Generex shares”) constituting 51% of the capital stock of the Company. The Company received an upfront payment of $0.4 million from Generex in November 2018. When the acquisition closed on January 7, 2019 (Closing Date), Generex issued a promissory note in favor of the Company for the remaining balance of $14.6 million subject to 4% interest rate per annum, payable in five (5) installment payments as follows in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement (SPA) and Promissory Note, with the proceeds intended to be used for specific purposes:

 

 7 

 

 

(a) Guaranteed payments:

 

(i)$3,450,000 – to initiate pre-clinical activities, payable on or about January 15, 2019, of which $650,000 was received by the Company and the remaining balance of $2,800,000 is payable on or before April 1, 2019 (see Note 13)
(ii)$2,000,000 – to initiate patient recruitment activities, payable on or about May 1, 2019
(iii)$3,000,000 – to initiate a first in-human pilot study, payable, on or about September 1, 2019

 

(b) Incremental payments

 

(i)$5,000,000 – to initiate a human pivotal study, payable on or about February 1, 2020
(ii)$1,150,000 – to submit a 510(k) de novo submission to the FDA, payable on or about February 1, 2021

 

In the event that Generex fails to make full payment when due of the Guaranteed Payments, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the option to (i) forfeit all of Generex’s shares OR (ii) demand and receive freely tradeable common shares of Generex equivalent to 110% of the value of the missing Guaranteed Payment with the Company facilitating the disposition of same in ordinary trading activities and in accordance with all state and federal securities laws, rules and regulations and exchange requirements. In the event any Incremental Payment is not paid when due, (i) Generex’s ownership interest in the Company shall be automatically and proportionally reduced based upon the amount of the purchase price actually paid and (ii) such Generex’s share certificate shall be returned by Generex to the Company for reissuance and failing that, the Company shall be entitled to automatically adjust Generex’s ownership interest on the books of the Company.

 

Should Generex fails to cure a default on its Incremental Payments with in sixty (60) days from due date, the Company is entitled in its sole discretion to pursue alternative sources of capital without regard to any pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal, or anti-dilution protections otherwise available to Generex.

 

In the event that the Financial Statements of the Company as indicated in the SPA are not delivered to Generex within sixty (60) calendar days of the Closing Date, which date was March 8, 2019, Generex shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to rescind the stock purchase transaction, in which event (i) the Milestone Payment and any Guaranteed Payments and Incremental Payments made prior to such rescission will be forthwith due and repayable by the Company to Generex.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Unaudited Condensed Financial Information

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements and the notes to the condensed financial statements as of September 30, 2018 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 are unaudited. These unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The balance sheet at December 31, 2017 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.

 

 8 

 

 

The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s condensed balance sheet at September 30, 2018 and its condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018, or any other future period.

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Condensed Financial Statements

 

The preparation of condensed financial statements, in conformity with US GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to accrued research and development expenses, redeemable convertible preferred stock, convertible debt and warrants, valuation of deferred tax assets, and stock-based compensation. The Company bases its estimates on its historical experience and also on assumptions that it believes are reasonable; however, actual results could significantly differ from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company's business is subject to significant risks common to early-stage companies in the medical device industry including, but not limited to, the ability to develop appropriate formulations, scale up and production of the product, dependence on collaborative parties, uncertainties associated with obtaining and enforcing patents, clinical success, the lengthy and expensive regulatory approval process, compliance with regulatory requirements, competition from other products; uncertainty of broad adoption of its approved products, if any, by physicians and patients; significant competition; ability to manage third-party manufacturers, suppliers and contract research organizations (“CROs”) and obtaining additional financing to fund the Company's efforts.

 

The product candidates developed by the Company require approvals from the FDA and foreign regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales in the United States or foreign jurisdictions, respectively. There can be no assurance that the Company’s current and future product candidates will receive the necessary approvals. If the Company is denied approval or approval is delayed, it may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and its financial condition.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is the price that the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in a timely transaction with an independent counter-party in the principal market or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. A three-tier hierarchy is established to distinguish between (1) inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2) inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs); and establishes a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.

 

 9 

 

 

The hierarchy is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

 

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.)

 

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities)

 

The Company’s cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and advances from stockholders carrying amounts as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and/or market rates of interest.

 

Cash

 

Cash consists primarily of cash on deposit.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

 

The Company classifies as equity any contracts that require physical settlement or net-share settlement or provide it a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in the Company’s own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement) provided that such contracts are indexed to its own stock as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.

 

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Redeemable convertible preferred stock is classified as a mezzanine instrument outside of the Company’s equity accounts. The carrying value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock is being accreted to equal its redemption value at the end of each reporting period, with changes in redemption value recognized immediately as they occur.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock options granted to employees and non-employees under the Company's stock option plan are accounted for by using a fair value based method. Share based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are measured based on their fair values at the date of grant and recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of share based payments to non employees is estimated at the date of grant and recorded as the goods are provided or service is performed.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are charged to expense when incurred and consist of costs incurred for independent and collaborative research and development activities. The major components of research and development costs include product development and allocations of various overhead and occupancy costs.

 

 10 

 

 

Patent and Patent Application Costs

 

Although the Company believes that its patents and underlying formulation technology have continuing value, the amount of future benefits to be derived from patents is uncertain. Patent costs, including legal expenses, are therefore expensed in the period in which they are incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed statements of operations.

 

3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 is aimed at making leasing activities more transparent and comparable, and requires substantially all leases be recognized by lessees on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability, including leases currently accounted for as operating leases. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018 for public companies and for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for private companies. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. The Company expects to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on its balance sheet for the discounted value of future lease payments from the adoption of this ASU. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had aggregate future minimum lease payments of approximately $67,000. The Company is currently evaluating the full impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

4. ACCRUED LIABILITIES

 

Accrued liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

   September 30,  December 31,
   2018  2017
Accrued compensation  $612   $379 
Accrued professional fees   392    16 
   $1,004   $395 

 

5. NOTES PAYABLE

 

Series B Notes

 

In February 2017, the Company initiated a Series B debt offering pursuant to which the Company issued unsecured note subscription agreements (Series B Notes) bearing interest at 8% with one year maturity date. The Series B Notes and all accrued interest shall be converted into Series B Convertible Preferred Shares at a discount to the preferred share price upon offering terms and conditions that have not yet been fully determined. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company issued Series B Notes with principal amount of approximately $548,000. As of December 31, 2017, the outstanding Series B Notes has a redemption value of approximately $700,000. There was no issuance of Series B Notes during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

 

 11 

 

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized the accrual of interest and accretion of premium as interest expense in the condensed statements of operations of approximately $54,000 and $73,000, respectively.

 

In October 2018, the Company entered into a settlement and mutual release agreements (Settlement Agreement) with certain Series B investors, of approximately $405,000 in principal, whereby the Company agreed to repay the investors the principal and interest from investment date to September 30, 2018 of 8% interest per annum and from October 31, 2018 until final settlement date, which is on or before December 31, 2018, of 16% per annum. On October 12, 2018, the Company agreed to pay the investors an additional interest of 8% per annum for the month of October 2018. On December 28, 2018, the Settlement Agreement was amended by extending the settlement date to February 15, 2019 and the payment of interest at 16% per annum until settlement date. As of March 25, 2019, the Company is in process of negotiating the extension of the due date for the remaining principal balance and accrued interest of approximately $328,000.

 

The remaining Series B investors agreed to convert their principal of approximately $187,000 and accrued interest, with interest rate of 8% from investment date to September 30, 2018 and 16% from October 1, 2018 to October 31, 2018, into common shares at conversion price ranging from $0.99 per share to $1.12 per share, with a conversion date that is yet to be determined by the Company (see Note 13).

 

6. REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

 

As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has authorized 2,793,000 shares of redeemable Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock A”), with a par value of $0.0001 and redemption value of $0.65 per share.

 

Redeemable convertible preferred stock consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

    
   Number of shares  Carrying
Value
Issuance of Preferred Stock A through conversion of Series A Notes   2,793   $1,413 
Accretion of Preferred Stock A to redemption value   —      403 
    2,793   $1,816 

 

The rights, preferences and privileges of the convertible preferred stock are as follows:

 

Dividends

 

The holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive cash dividends, which shall be payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. No dividends shall be paid or declared, and no distribution shall be made, on or with respect to the Common Stock or any other junior class or series of capital stock, as long as the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has not declared any dividends.

 

 12 

 

 

Liquidation Preference

 

Upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the preferred stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution an amount equal to $0.65 per share, plus any dividends accrued or declared but unpaid, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any common stock or any other junior class or series of capital stock. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Series A Preferred Stock liquidation value amounted to approximately $1,816,000.

 

Conversion

 

Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock at the initial conversion ratio of 1:1 which ratio shall be adjusted in accordance with stock dividends, splits, combinations and other similar events, including the sale of additional shares of common or preferred stock. Each share of the Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of common stock, at the applicable conversion ratio of each series of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock then in effect, upon (i) a qualified public offering with net proceeds of not less than $10 million, subject to appropriate adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization, or (ii) the date specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of at least two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock voting on an as-if-converted to Common Stock basis.

 

Redemption

 

At any time after November 1, 2026, the holders of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of their shares for cash at a redemption price equal to its liquidation value. Accordingly, the Series A Preferred shares are included within temporary or mezzanine equity on the Balance Sheet.

 

Voting Rights

 

The holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, together with the holders of common stock, on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote. Holders of Preferred Stock have the right to vote the number of shares equal to the number of shares of common stock into which such Preferred Stock could convert on the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote.

 

7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company created the Asana Medical, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) to compensate and attract top talent. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the total shares authorized under the 2013 Plan were 2,328,750 shares. The Board of Directors or a designated Committee of the Board is responsible for the administration of the 2013 Plan and determines the term, exercise price, and vesting terms of each option. Under the terms of existing awards, all stock option grants expire ten years from grant date.

 

 13 

 

 

A summary of all stock option activity under the 2013 Plan is presented below (in thousands except for price per share amounts):

Options available for grant under the 2013 Plan   1,192 
    5,010 

 

 14 

 

 

9. INCOME TAXES

 

In accordance with the authoritative guidance for income taxes under ASC 740, Income taxes, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the difference between the condensed financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates, which will be in effect when these differences reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets unless, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

 

The Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the condensed financial statements only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as income tax expense. At September 30, 2018 and 2017, there are no unrecognized tax benefits nor any significant accruals for interest related to unrecognized tax benefits or tax penalties.

 

The Company is subject to taxation and files income tax returns in the United States and in the state of Florida. All tax years from inception to date are subject to examination by the U.S. and state tax authorities due to the carry-forward of unutilized net operating losses and research and development credits. Currently, no years are under examination.

 

Recognition of deferred tax assets is appropriate when realization of such assets is more likely than not. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax asset.

 

The Company has established a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty that such assets will be realized.

 

Deferred tax asset as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 of approximately $1.16 million and $880,000, respectively, comprises primarily of deferred tax on federal net operating loss, which was entirely offset by the Company’s full valuation allowance.

 

On December 22, 2017, the United States enacted tax reform legislation known as the H.R.1, commonly referred to as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (the “Act”), resulting in significant modifications to existing law, which include a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% as well as other changes. As a result of the changes to tax laws and tax rates under the Act, the Company has recorded a provisional one-time reduction in income tax benefit of approximately $487,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017, which consists primarily of the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities from 35% to 21%, but was entirely offset by the Company’s full valuation allowance.

10. LICENSE AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

 

License agreement with University of Pittsburgh

 

The Company enters into licensing agreements with universities and other research related entities for the exclusive right to commercially develop, produce, manufacture, use, and sell certain products and methods of use thereof. Typically, the license agreements are effective through the later of (i) the end of the term of the last-to-expire of licensor’s patent rights licensed under the license agreements, or (ii) ten years after the first sale of the first licensed product if no patent has issued from the patent rights.

 

In May 2015, the Company executed a license agreement with the University of Pittsburgh for a worldwide, exclusive license to manufacture, market, sell and sublicense Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel based upon certain patents, with a field of use, limited to human and animal colonic and small intestine therapeutic indications. The agreement includes annual maintenance fee due to University of Pittsburgh ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 and patent cost reimbursement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, expenses incurred for patent cost reimbursement including legal fees for the protection of intellectual property and reported as part of general and administrative expenses in the condensed statements of operations of approximately $38,000 and $169,000, respectively.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had not reached any of the milestones.

 

Agreements with Cook Biotech Inc.

 

In August 2018, the Company executed a development agreement with Cook Biotech Inc. (Cook Bio), a world leader in cost-effective, advanced tissue-repair products. Under the terms of the development agreement, Cook Bio will develop and manufacture the Company’s licensed clinical product, ECMH Rectal Solution, which will be used in first-in-human clinical studies conducted by the Company. As part of the partnership, Cook Bio has become a stockholder in the Company.

 

The agreement includes a total consideration of $2 million, of which $500,000 was payable via issuance of the Company’s 290,000 common shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, $475,000 was recognized as research and development expense in the condensed statements of operations, of which $100,000 represented the estimated fair value of the 290,000 common shares issued by the Company, and $375,000 due on September 30, 2018 remained outstanding as accrued expenses as of September 30, 2018. The remaining balance is payable as follows (in thousands):

Exhibit 99.3

 

Unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information

 

On January 7, 2019, Regentys Corporation (“Regentys”) and Generex Biotechnology Corporation (“Generex” or the “Company”) completed closing of the stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) previously announced in a binding letter of intent (“LOI”) on November 28, 2018 wherein the Company purchased 51% of the capital stock of Regentys (12,048,161 newly issued shares in Regentys common stock) in exchange for total purchase price of $15,000,000 payable as follows: (i) a cash payment of $400,000; and (ii) the issuance of a promissory note in the amount of $14,600,000.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and related notes have been prepared by combining the historical condensed consolidated financial statements of Generex and Regentys and adjusted to give effect to Regentys’ acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of October 31, 2018 gives effect to the Regentys acquisition as if it occurred on that date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and for the year ended July 31, 2018 give effect to the Regentys acquisition as if it occurred on August 1, 2017.

The Company accounted for the Acquisition of Regentys as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting as prescribed in Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). In accordance with ASC 805 and ASC 820, the Company used its best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of the aggregate of the fair value of consideration transferred and the fair value of noncontrolling interest in the acquiree over the fair values of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The fair values assigned to Regentys’ tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The estimated fair values of these assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are considered preliminary and are based on the information that was available as of the date of the acquisition. The preliminary estimated fair values of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed may be subject to change as additional information is received. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value are subject to change. The Company expects to finalize the valuation as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the closing date.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based upon, and should be read in conjunction with:

  The accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements;

 

  The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on October 26, 2018;

 

  The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the three-month period ended October 31, 2018 and 2017; and

 

  Regentys’ audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 included elsewhere in the Form 8-K/A current report.

 

  Regentys’ unaudited financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 included elsewhere in the Form 8-K/A current report.

Generex’s historical condensed consolidated statement of income for the year ended July 31, 2018 was derived from its audited consolidated financial statements as reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2018. Generex’s historical condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months ended October 31, 2018, and condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2018, were derived from its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended October 31, 2018. 

Regentys’ historical fiscal year ends on December 31 and, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, its historical results have been aligned to conform to the Company’s July 31 fiscal year end:

  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of October 31, 2018, combines the Company’s historical financial position as of October 31, 2018, and Regentys’ historical financial position as of September 30, 2018;

 

  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2018, combines the Company’s historical results for three months ended October 31, 2018, and Regentys’ historical results for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

 

  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018, combines the Company’s historical results for year ended July 31, 2018, and Regentys’ historical results for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018. The amounts for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018 were derived by adding Regentys’ six months amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2018 to the Regentys’ year end amounts for the year ended December 31, 2017, and removing the amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not intended to represent the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of Generex that would have been reported had the Acquisition been completed as of the dates described above, and should not be taken as indicative of any future consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to estimated pro forma events that are directly attributable to the acquisition, factually supportable and, with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results of operations and do not reflect any sales or cost savings from synergies that may be achieved with respect to the combined companies, or the impact of non-recurring items, including restructuring liabilities, directly related to the Acquisition.

The financial data in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and has been prepared in a manner consistent with the accounting policies adopted by Generex. These accounting policies are similar in most material respects to those of Regentys, Generex is currently performing a more detailed review of Regentys’ accounting policies. As a result of that review, differences could be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the combined financial statements. Transactions between Generex and Regentys are eliminated in the preparation of this unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income, are expected to have a continuing impact on the results of operations. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information do not reflect any sales or cost savings from synergies that may be achieved with respect to the combined companies, or the impact of non-recurring items, including restructuring liabilities, directly related to the Acquisition.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial information is derived from the historical financial statements of Generex and Regentys. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations, and Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures with Generex treated as the accounting acquirer.

Regentys’ historical fiscal year ends on December 31 and, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, its historical results have been aligned to conform to the Company’s July 31 fiscal year end:

  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of October 31, 2018, combines the Company’s historical financial position as of October 31, 2018, and Regentys’ historical financial position as of September 30, 2018;

 

  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2018, combines the Company’s historical results for three months ended October 31, 2018, and Regentys’ historical results for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

 

  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018, combines the Company’s historical results for year ended July 31, 2018, and Regentys’ historical results for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018. The amounts for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018 were derived by adding Regentys’ six months amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2018 to the Regentys’ year end amounts for the year ended December 31, 2017, and removing the amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2018 gives effect to the Regentys’ acquisition as if it occurred on that date. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and for the year ended July 31, 2018 give effect to the Regentys’ acquisition as if it occurred on August 1, 2017,  using the acquisition method of accounting. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not intended to represent the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of Generex that would have been reported had the Acquisition been completed as of the dates described above, and should not be taken as indicative of any future consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

2. Purchase price

The purchase price for the Acquisition was $15 million as follows:

   Amount  Fair Value
Purchase Price:          
Cash  $400,000   $400,000 
Future Cash Payments of Note Payable  $14,600,000    14,345,205 
Net Purchase Price  $15,000,000   $14,745,205 

The note payable was issued to Regentys and will be recognized by Regentys as notes receivable on the acquisition date. These balances are eliminated for the purpose of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The note payable will be recorded at the fair value and the Company will impute interest over the term of the agreement at a rate of 2.42% to 2.58%. 

3. Preliminary Pro Forma Allocation of Purchase Price

 

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. Goodwill is then measured as the excess of the aggregate of the fair value of purchase consideration transferred and the fair value of noncontrolling interest in the acquiree over the fair values of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Generex has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair values of Regentys’ tangible and identifiable intangible assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed. Using the total consideration for the Acquisition, the Company has estimated the allocations to such assets and liabilities, with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist. The Company has not completed the detailed valuation studies necessary to arrive at the required fair values of Regentys’ tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Therefore, the following allocation of the purchase price to acquired assets and assumed liabilities is based on preliminary fair value estimates and subject to final management analysis, with the assistance of third party valuation advisors.

Regentys’ historical fiscal year ends on December 31 and, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, its historical results have been aligned to conform to the Company’s July 31 fiscal year end. Hence, for the purpose of this pro forma, t he following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase price as if the acquisition date occurred on October 31, 2018: 

Purchase price allocation:   
Cash and cash equivalents  $1,631 
Other current Assets   8,262 
Property and equipment, net   536 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (1,087,226)
Notes payable   (753,704)
Loans from related parties   (51,505)
Net liabilities of Regentys   (1,882,006)
      
Cash paid prior to the time of closing   400,000 
Note receviable from Generex   14,345,205 
In-process research & development   3,510,680 
Goodwill   13,205,768 
Deferred tax liability   (889,782)
Non-controlling interest   (13,944,660)
Total Purchase Price  $14,745,205

4. Pro Forma Adjustments

 

The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the financial position actually would have been had the acquisition been completed at the date indicated. Such information includes adjustments that are preliminary and may be revised. Such revisions may result in material changes. The financial position shown herein is not necessarily indicative of what the past financial position of the combined companies would have been, nor necessarily indicative of the financial position of the post-merger periods.

The following describes the pro forma adjustments related to the acquisition that have been made in the accompanying unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of October 31, 2018 gives effect to the Regentys’ acquisition as if it occurred on that date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and for the year ended July 31, 2018 give effect to the Regentys’ acquisition as if it occurred on August 1, 2017. The following pro forma adjustments reflect the assumptions described in the two preceeding statements:

(A)   To record the incremental goodwill as a result preliminary purchase price allocation of the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of assets acquired in the amount of $13,205,768.

 

(B)   To record the incremental in-process research and development of $3,510,680 as a result of the preliminary purchase price allocation based upon the assumption that the product is commercially oriented and technically viable as of the date of valuation. Regentys began in essentially in May 2015 (upon purchase of licensed patents) and is currently scheduled to complete various milestones in the next five years, therefore the valuation assumed functional obsolescence of the tangibles or intangibles developed to date and the replacement cost was discounted for its remaining useful life.

 

(C)   To record the elimination of the redeemable convertible preferred stock at book value of of $1,815,575 and record its fair value of $4,073,898 as redeemable non-controlling interest.

(E)   To record the elimination of the accumulated deficit of Regentys as a result of the acquisition as if the Acquisition occurred on October 31, 2018. This also includes the adjustment to release the valuation allowance for Generex’s deferred tax assets as a result of recording of deferred tax liability of $889,782.

 

(F)   To record the non-controlling interest as a result of the Acquisition based upon the fair value of non-controlling interest in Regentys as if the Acquisition occurred on October 31, 2018.

 

(G)   To record non-controlling interest as a result of the Acquisition as if the Acquisition occurred on August 1, 2017.

 

(H)   To record non-controlling interest as a result of the Acquisition as if the Acquisition occurred on August 1, 2017.
