Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), 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 entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract, determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. 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. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected on behalf of third parties are excluded from revenue.

Product sales, net — The Company sells YUTIQ and DEXYCU to a limited number of specialty distributors and specialty pharmacies (collectively the “Distributors”) in the U.S., with whom the Company has entered into formal agreements, for delivery to physician practices for YUTIQ and to hospital outpatient departments and ambulatory surgical centers for DEXYCU. The Company recognizes revenue on sales of its products when Distributors obtain control of the products, which occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery. In addition to agreements with Distributors, the Company also enters into arrangements with healthcare providers, ambulatory surgical centers, and payors that provide for government mandated and/or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks, and discounts with respect to their purchase of the Company’s products from Distributors.

Reserves for variable consideration Product sales are recorded at the wholesale acquisition costs, net of applicable reserves for variable consideration. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, provider chargebacks and discounts, payor rebates, product returns, and other allowances that are offered within contracts between the Company and its Distributors, payors, and other contracted purchasers relating to the Company’s product sales. These reserves, as detailed below, are based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and are classified either as reductions of product revenue and accounts receivable or a current liability, depending on how the amount is to be settled. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts.  Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Distribution fees The Company compensates its Distributors for services explicitly stated in the Company’s contracts and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product sale is recognized.

Provider chargebacks and discounts Chargebacks are discounts that represent the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products at prices lower than the list prices charged to the Company’s Distributors. These Distributors charge the Company for the difference between what they pay for the product and the Company’s contracted selling price. These reserves are established in the same period that the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability.  Reserves for chargebacks consist of amounts that the Company expects to pay for units that remain in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expects will be sold under a contracted selling price, and chargebacks that Distributors have claimed, but for which the Company has not yet settled.

Government rebates — The Company is subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and Medicare. These reserves are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s liability for these rebates consists of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that have not been paid or for which an invoice has not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that will be made for product that has been recognized as revenue, but which remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period.

Payor rebates — The Company contracts with certain private payor organizations, primarily insurance companies, for the payment of rebates with respect to utilization of its products. The Company estimates these rebates and records such estimates in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability.

Co-Payment assistance — The Company offers co-payment assistance to commercially insured patients meeting certain eligibility requirements. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance is based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expects to receive associated with product that has been recognized as revenue.

Product returns — The Company generally offers a limited right of return based on its returned goods policy, which includes damaged product and remaining shelf life. The Company estimates the amount of its product sales that may be returned and records this estimate as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized, as well as reductions to trade receivables, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

License and collaboration agreement revenue — The Company analyzes each element of its license and collaboration arrangements to determine the appropriate revenue recognition. The terms of the license agreement may include payment to the Company of non-refundable up-front license fees, milestone payments if specified objectives are achieved, and/or royalties on product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from upfront payments at a point in time, typically upon fulfilling the delivery of the associated intellectual property to the customer.

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.

The Company recognizes sales-based milestone payments as revenue upon the achievement of the cumulative sales amount specified in the contract in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65. For those milestone payments which are contingent on the occurrence of particular future events, the Company determines that these need to be considered for inclusion in the calculation of total consideration from the contract as a component of variable consideration using the most-likely amount method. As such, the Company assesses each milestone to determine the probability and substance behind achieving each milestone. Given the inherent uncertainty associated with these future events, the Company will not recognize revenue from such milestones until there is a high probability of occurrence, which typically occurs near or upon achievement of the event.

When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. Applying the practical expedient in paragraph 606-10-32-18, the Company does not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when the Company performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component as of June 30, 2020.

Royalties — The Company recognizes revenue from license arrangements with its commercial partners’ net sales of products. Such revenues are included as royalty income. In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65, royalties are recognized when the subsequent sale of the commercial partner’s products occurs. The Company’s commercial partners are obligated to report their net product sales and the resulting royalty due to the Company typically within 60 days from the end of each quarter. Based on historical product sales, royalty receipts and other relevant information, the Company recognizes royalty income each quarter and subsequently determines a true-up when it receives royalty reports and payment from its commercial partners. Historically, these true-up adjustments have been immaterial.

Research Collaborations— The Company recognizes revenue over the term of the statements of work under any funded research collaborations (including feasibility study agreements). Revenue recognition for consideration, if any, related to a license option right is assessed based on the terms of any such future license agreement or is otherwise recognized at the completion of the research collaborations (including feasibility study agreements).

Please refer to Note 3 for further details on the license and collaboration agreements into which the Company has entered and corresponding amounts of revenue recognized during the current and prior year periods.

Cost of sales, excluding amortization of acquired intangible assets — Cost of sales, excluding amortization of acquired intangible assets, consist of costs associated with the manufacture of YUTIQ and DEXYCU, certain period costs for DEXYCU product revenue, product shipping and, as applicable, royalty expense. The inventory costs for YUTIQ include purchases of various components, the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) and direct labor and overhead for the product manufactured in the Company’s Watertown, MA facility. The inventory costs for DEXYCU include purchased components, the API and third-party manufacturing and assembly. Capitalization of inventory costs begins after FDA approval of a product. Prior thereto, inventory costs of products and product candidates are recorded as research and development expense, even if this inventory may later be sold as commercial product.

The Company accrued DEXYCU product revenue-based royalty expense of $99,000 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $616,000 and $99,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, as a component of cost of sales. $0 and $400,000 of accrued revenue-based royalty expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were related to the partnering income in connection with the acquisition of Icon Bioscience, Inc. in March 2018.
