2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates and assumptions.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was primarily composed of a $2.0 million minimum cash balance requirement in connection with the Capital Royalty Term Loan (see Note 6 “Loan Agreements”).

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company grants credit to various customers in the normal course of business. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for potential credit losses. Provisions are made, generally, for receivables greater than 120 days past due and based upon a specific review of other outstanding invoices. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance after appropriate collection efforts have been exhausted and when it is deemed that a balance is uncollectible.

 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expense, and employee-related liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. Short-term investments are carried at fair value. Based on the borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms, the Company believes that the fair value of its long-term debt approximates its carrying value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is generated from sales, in the United States, of the t:slim pump, disposable cartridges and infusion sets to individual customers and third-party distributors that resell the product to insulin-dependent diabetes customers. The Company is paid directly by customers who use the products, distributors and third-party insurance payors.

 

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title passed, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. These criteria are applied as follows:

 

The evidence of an arrangement generally consists of contractual arrangements with distributors, third-party insurance payors or direct customers.

 

Transfer of title and risk and rewards of ownership are passed upon shipment of the pump to distributors or upon delivery to the customer.

 

The selling prices are fixed and agreed upon based on the contracts with distributors, the customer and contracted insurance payors, if applicable. For sales to customers associated with insurance providers with whom there is no contract, revenue is recognized upon collection of cash at which time the price is determinable. The Company generally does not offer rebates to its distributors and customers.

 

The Company considers the overall creditworthiness and payment history of the distributor, customer and the contracted insurance payor in concluding whether collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Revenue Recognition for Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables

 

The Company considers the deliverables in its product offering as separate units of accounting and recognizes deliverables as revenue upon delivery only if (i) the deliverable has standalone value and (ii) if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is probable and substantially controlled by the Company. The Company allocates consideration to the separate units of accounting, unless the undelivered elements were deemed perfunctory and inconsequential. The Company uses the relative selling price method, in which allocation of consideration is based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) if available, third-party evidence (TPE), or if VSOE and TPE are not available, management’s best estimate of a standalone selling price (ESP) for the undelivered elements.

 

The Company offers a cloud-based data management application, t:connect, which is made available upon purchase by t:slim pump customers. This service is deemed an undelivered element at the time of the t:slim sale. Because the Company has neither VSOE nor TPE for this deliverable, the allocation of revenue is based on the Company’s ESP. The Company establishes its ESP based on estimated cost to provide such services, including consideration for a reasonable profit margin and corroborated by comparable market data. The Company allocates fair value based on management’s ESP to this element at the time of sale and is recognizing the revenue over the four-year hosting period. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $0.7 million was recorded as deferred revenue for the t:connect hosting service. All other undelivered elements at the time of sale are deemed inconsequential or perfunctory.

 

Product Returns

 

The Company offers a 30-day right of return for its t:slim pump customers from the date of shipment, provided a physician’s confirmation of the medical reason for the return is received. Estimated return allowances for sales returns are based on historical returned quantities as compared to t:slim pump shipments in those same periods. The return rate is then applied to the sales of the current period to establish a reserve at the end of the period. The return rates used in the reserve are adjusted for known or expected changes in the marketplace when appropriate. The allowance for product returns included in other current liabilities on the Company’s balance sheets at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Actual product returns have not differed materially from estimated amounts reserved in the accompanying financial statements.

 

Warranty Reserve

 

The Company generally provides a four-year warranty on its t:slim pump to end user customers and may replace any pumps that do not function in accordance with the product specifications. Any pump returned to the Company may be refurbished and redeployed. Additionally, the Company offers a six-month warranty on t:slim cartridges and infusion sets. Estimated warranty costs are recorded at the time of shipment. Warranty costs are estimated based on the current expected replacement product cost, actual experience and expected failure rates from test studies performed in conjunction with the clearance of the t:slim pump with the FDA to support the longevity and reliability of the pump. The Company evaluates the reserve quarterly and makes adjustments when appropriate. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the warranty reserve was $2.5 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Actual warranty costs have not differed materially from estimated amounts reserved in the accompanying financial statements.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of the change in product warranty liabilities through March 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation expense over the employee’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options and shares issued to employees under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions including volatility, expected term, and risk-free rate. For awards that vest based on service conditions, the Company recognizes expense using the straight-line method less estimated forfeitures. As of March 31, 2015, there were no outstanding equity awards with market or performance conditions.

 

The Company records the expense for stock option grants to non-employees based on the estimated fair value of the stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of non-employee awards is remeasured at each reporting period as the underlying awards vest unless the instruments are fully vested, immediately exercisable and nonforfeitable on the date of grant.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares that were outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the sum of the weighted-average number of dilutive common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method. Dilutive common share equivalents are comprised of warrants, potential Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) awards, and options outstanding under the Company’s stock plans. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.

 

Potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share (because inclusion would be anti-dilutive) are as follows (in common stock equivalent shares):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede existing revenue guidance under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. On April 1, 2015, the FASB proposed deferring the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The FASB also proposed permitting early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of assessing the future impact of the adoption of the standard on its financial statements.
