Note 1. Organization and Description of Business and Recent Developments
Organization and Description of Business
AIkido Pharma Inc. (the “Company” and “We”), formerly known as Spherix Incorporated, was initially formed in 1967. Since 2017, the Company has operated as a biotechnology company with a diverse portfolio of small-molecule anticancer and antiviral therapeutics in development. The Company’s pipeline consists of patented technology from leading universities and researchers. The Company is currently in the process of developing its innovative therapeutic drug pipeline through strong partnerships with world renowned educational institutions, including the University of Texas at Austin, the University of Maryland, Baltimore and Wake Forest University. The Company’s oncology therapeutics include prospective treatments for pancreatic cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The Company is also developing a broad-spectrum antiviral platform, in which the lead compounds have activity in cell-based assays against multiple viruses including Influenza virus, Ebolavirus and Marburg virus, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19.
As a result of the Company’s biotechnology research and development and associated investments and acquisitions, its business portfolio now focuses on the treatment of three different cancers and multiple types of viral infections. The Company’s pancreatic drug candidate, DHA-dFdC, developed at and licensed from the University of Texas at Austin, is a new compound that it hopes will become the next generation of chemotherapy treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. DHA-dFdC overcomes tumor cell resistance to current chemotherapeutic drugs and is well tolerated in preclinical toxicity tests. Preclinical studies have also indicated that DHA-dFdC inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth (up to 100,000-fold more potent that gemcitabine, a current standard therapy), targets pancreatic tumors and has demonstrated activities against other cancers. The Company has also executed a Sponsored Research Agreement with UMB to support the development of the technology under the direction of these inventors at UMB.
Note 2. Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company continues to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. While the Company continues to implement its business strategy, it intends to finance its activities through managing current cash on hand from the Company’s past debt and equity offerings.
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company
consummated a public offering of

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from audited financial statements; however, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021.
Use of Estimates
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP. This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include stock-based compensation, the valuation of investments, the valuation of convertible note and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Significant Accounting Policies
Other than as described below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021.
Fair Value Option - Convertible Note
The guidance in ASC 825, Financial Instruments, provides a fair value option election that allows entities to make an irrevocable election of fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain eligible financial assets and liabilities. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. The decision to elect the fair value option is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis and must be applied to an entire instrument and is irrevocable once elected. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value pursuant to this guidance are required to be reported separately in our condensed consolidated balance sheets from those instruments using another accounting method.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU No. 2019-12 effective January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 9. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company uses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)
Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company's market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 ($ in thousands):

Note 10. Net Loss per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss allocable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock or common stock equivalents outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share at September 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Risks and Uncertainties – COVID-19
Management continues to valuate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for drug candidates, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The COVID-19 pandemic has slowed down some drug development efforts and has slowed the acquisition of new drugs. However, the impact of the pandemic and ensuing lockdowns are easing. The process of drug development and further acquisitions is now continuing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 13. Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated events that have occurred after the balance sheet date through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon the evaluation and transactions, the Company did not identify any other subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
You should read this discussion together with the Financial Statements, related Notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The following discussion contains assumptions, estimates and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. All references to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Aikido Pharma Inc., a Delaware corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.
Overview
AIkido Pharma Inc. was initially formed in 1967. Since 2017, the Company has operated as a biotechnology company with a diverse portfolio of small-molecule anticancer and antiviral therapeutics in development. The Company’s pipeline consists of patented technology from leading universities and researchers. We are currently in the process of developing our innovative therapeutic drug pipeline through strong partnerships with world renowned educational institutions, including the University of Texas at Austin, the University of Maryland, Baltimore and Wake Forest University. Our oncology therapeutics include treatments for pancreatic cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The Company is also developing a broad-spectrum antiviral platform, in which the lead compounds have activity against multiple viruses including Influenza virus, Ebolavirus and Marburg virus, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19.
As a result of the Company’s biotechnology research and development and associated investments and acquisitions, our business portfolio now focuses on the treatment of three different cancers and multiple types of viral infections. Our pancreatic drug candidate, DHA-dFdC, developed at and licensed from the University of Texas at Austin, is a new compound that we hope will become the next generation of chemotherapy treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. DHA-dFdC overcomes tumor cell resistance to current chemotherapeutic drugs and is well tolerated in preclinical toxicity tests. Preclinical studies have also indicated that DHA-dFdC inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth (up to 100,000-fold more potent that gemcitabine, a current standard therapy), targets pancreatic tumors and has demonstrated activities against other cancers, including leukemia, lung and melanoma. Our AML and ALL compound, developed at the Wake Forest University, is a targeted therapeutic designed to overcome multiple resistance mechanisms observed with the current standard of care.
Our broad-spectrum antiviral platform was developed at the University of Maryland Baltimore (“UMB”), which granted the Company an exclusive worldwide Master License Agreement (MLA”) to technology covered by three separate patent applications. The licensed technology comprises broadly acting pan-viral inhibitory compounds targeting multiple viral pathogens. The technology was invented by UMB scientists Drs. Matthew Frieman, Alexander MacKerell and Stuart Watson. The Company has also executed a Sponsored Research Agreement with UMB to support the development of the technology under the direction of these inventors at UMB.
In addition, we are constantly seeking to grow our pipeline of treatments in oncology indications. For example, in January 2021, the Company invested in Convergent Therapeutics, Inc., which has exclusive rights to technology related to next-generation dual-action peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (“PRRT”) for prostate cancer covered by multiple issued U.S. and foreign patents. Convergent is currently conducting advanced human trials relating to prostate cancer treatments utilizing PRRT that targets the prostate-specific membrane antigen (“PSMA”) present on prostate cancer cells. The technology was developed under the direction of Dr. Neil Bander, Professor of Urologic Oncology at Weill Cornell Medicine. In addition, the Company was granted a license to four patent applications for the use of psilocybin in cancer indications.
Additionally, on January 6, 2021 the Company announced that it entered into an exclusive patent license agreement with Silo Pharma Inc. (“Silo Pharma”) pursuant to which Silo Pharma granted the Company a worldwide exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing license to certain Silo Pharma owned provisional patent applications directed to the use of psilocybin in cancer treatment, and any patents issuing therefrom, including all continuations, continuations-in-part, divisions, extensions, substitutions, reissues, re-examinations, and any applications and all patents issuing from any applications and patents that claim domestic benefit or foreign priority to the provisional patent applications. The license is for “Field of Use” (as defined in the exclusive patent license agreement) of “treatment of cancer and symptoms caused by cancer, including but not limited to pain, nausea, neuroinflammation, brain and neural dysfunction, depression, seizures, confusion, dizziness, numbness/tingling, dysfunction of the senses and all other symptoms that are caused by cancer of any type.”

See Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting standards.
Results of Operations
Three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to three months ended September 30, 2020
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we incurred a loss from operations of approximately $1.8 million, as compared to $1.0 million during the comparable prior year period. The increase in loss was primarily attributed to $0.9 million increase in in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by $91,000 million decrease research and development expense and $38,000 decrease in research and development expense related with license acquisition.
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, other income was approximately $1.7 million as compared to other expense of approximately $1.1 million during the comparable prior year period. The net loss per share decreased from a decrease in net operating losses and a significant increase in the number of shares outstanding. The increase in other income was primarily attributed to a $5.3 million increase in the change in fair value of investment in DatChat and a decrease in the change in fair value of investment in Hoth, and partially offset by $2.6 million increase in loss on marketable securities.
The Company experienced very little or no revenue in the last two years and we don’t expect any revenue until a biotechnology product is fully developed which may not occur for many years.
Nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2020
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we incurred a loss from operations of approximately $6.9 million, as compared to a loss of $5.2 million during the comparable prior year period. The increase in loss was primarily attributed to $2.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses, and partially offset by $0.5 million decrease in research and development expense $26,000 decrease in research and development expense related to the license acquisition.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, other income was approximately $1.5 million as compared to other expense of approximately $7.5 million during the comparable prior year period. The net loss per share decreased from a decrease in net operating losses and a significant increase in the number of shares outstanding. The increase in other income was primarily attributed to a $11.2 million increase in the change in fair value of investment in DatChat, decrease in the change in fair value of investment in Hoth, and partially offset by $2.4 million increase in loss on marketable securities.
The Company experienced very little or no revenue in the last two years and we don’t expect any revenue until a biotechnology product is fully developed which may not occur for many years.
15
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We continue to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. We do not expect to incur revenue until any of our biotechnology products are fully developed. While we continue to implement our business strategy, we intend to finance our activities through managing current cash on hand from our past equity offerings.
During the nine months of 2021, the Company consummated a public offering of 53,905,927 shares of common stock (including the underwriter overallotment). The Company received net proceeds of approximately $78.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. Therefore, the Company has adequate cash to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months.
Moving forward, the Company intends to manage its cash through an investment committee focused on asset preservation and reasonable risk allocation. Further, the Company intends to grow its drug platform through additional licensing efforts that are similar to those the Company has already entered into and disclosed. In addition, the Company is seeking partnerships with academic institutions and private enterprise to find, fund and advance new drug compounds that can be brought to commercialization.
Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of its consolidated operations and/or search for drug candidates, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
On August 10, 2021, the Company received a staff deficiency notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) informing the Company that its common stock failed to comply with the $1.00 minimum bid price required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Nasdaq’s letter advised the Company that, based upon the closing bid price during the period from June 28, 2021 to August 9, 2021, the Company no longer meets this test.
Pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or February 7, 2022, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to February 7, 2022.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities - For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, net cash used in operations was approximately $4.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily resulted from a net loss of $5.4 million and change in fair value of investment of $3.8 million, and partially offset by $4.3 million unrealized loss on marketable securities and $1.1 million research and development expense related with license acquired. The cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily resulted from a net loss of $12.7 million, and partially offset by reduction in fair value of investment of $7.4 million and $1.2 million research and development expense related with license acquired.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities - For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $70.3 million and $27.2 million, respectively. The cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily resulted from our purchase of marketable securities of $90.5 million, funds to deposit accounts of $4.4 million (net of fee), purchase of investments at fair value of $4.1 million and purchase of convertible note of $2.0 million, partially offset by our sale of marketable securities of $30.4 million since we invest excess cash into marketable securities until additional cash is needed. The cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily resulted from our purchase of marketable securities of $98.5 million and research and development expense related with license acquired of $1.2 million, partially offset by our sale of marketable securities of $72.0 million since we invest excess cash into marketable securities until additional cash is needed.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities - Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $78.1 million, which reflects the net proceeds of $78.0 million from investors in exchange of issuance of common stock and warrants and net proceeds of $84,000 from the exercise of common warrants. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $31.6 million, which reflects the net proceeds of $6.6 million from investors in exchange of issuance of common stock, common warrants and prefunded warrants, net proceeds of $17.8 million from investors in exchange of issuance of common stock, and net proceeds of $7.2 million from the exercise of common warrants and prefunded warrants.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.
The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
With respect to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021 due to the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. We have a lack of segregation of duties, and a lack of controls in place to ensure that all material transactions and developments impacting the financial statements are reflected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021 which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
17
Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the past, in the ordinary course of business, we actively pursued legal remedies to enforce our intellectual property rights and to stop unauthorized use of our technology. Other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, we know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021.

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Nuta Technology Corp. (“Nuta”), Spherix Portfolio Acquisition II, Inc. (“SPAII”), Guidance IP, LLC (“Guidance”), Directional IP, LLC (“Directional”), Spherix Management Services, LLC (“SMS”), Spherix Delaware Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), Spherix Merger Subsidiary, Inc (“SMSI”) and NNPT, LLC (“NNPT”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from audited financial statements; however, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021.
Use of Estimates
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP. This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include stock-based compensation, the valuation of investments, the valuation of convertible note and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Significant Accounting Policies

Fair Value Option - Convertible Note
The guidance in ASC 825, Financial Instruments, provides a fair value option election that allows entities to make an irrevocable election of fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain eligible financial assets and liabilities. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. The decision to elect the fair value option is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis and must be applied to an entire instrument and is irrevocable once elected. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value pursuant to this guidance are required to be reported separately in our condensed consolidated balance sheets from those instruments using another accounting method.

| Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities | Note 9. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company uses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)
Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company's market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 ($ in thousands):
Level 3 Valuation Techniques
The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis ($ in thousands):
Convergent Investment
On January 29, 2021, the Company purchased an 8% convertible promissory note (“Convertible Note”) issued by Convergent Therapeutics, Inc. (“Convergent”) in the principal amount of $2 million pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement with Convergent. The Company paid a purchase price for the Convertible Note of $2 million. The Company will receive interest on the Convertible Note at the rate of 8% per annum payable upon conversion or maturity of the Convertible Note. The Convertible Note shall mature on January 29, 2023.
The Company has elected to measure the purchase of the Convertible Note from Convergent using the fair value option at each reporting date. Under the fair value option, bifurcation of an embedded derivative is not necessary, and all related gains and losses on the host contract and derivative due to change in the fair value will be reflected in interest income and other, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Convertible Note is disclosed as a noncurrent Convertible Note investment in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2021, the fair value of the Convertible Note was measured at $2.0 million, taking into consideration cost of the investment, market participant inputs, market conditions, liquidity, operating results and other qualitative and quantitative factors. The value at which the Company’s Convertible Note is carried on its books is adjusted to estimated fair value at the end of each quarter, taking into account general economic and stock market conditions and those characteristics specific to the underlying investments. No change in fair value was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance on a quarterly basis and is recognized in interest income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded an interest income receivable of approximately $107,000 on the Convertible Note as of September 30, 2021. |

Risks and Uncertainties – COVID-19
Management continues to valuate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for drug candidates, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The COVID-19 pandemic has slowed down some drug development efforts and has slowed the acquisition of new drugs. However, the impact of the pandemic and ensuing lockdowns are easing. The process of drug development and further acquisitions is now continuing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |
