NOTE
3:
SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation:
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10
-Q and Rule
10
-
01
of Regulation S-
X.
They do
not
include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been
no
material change in the information disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form
10
-K of the Company for the year ended
December 31, 2019.
The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet presented was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does
not
include all disclosures required by GAAP.  
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three
and
six
months ended
June 
30,
2020,
are
not
necessarily indicative of the results that
may
be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2020.
  
Use of Estimates:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Research and Development Expense:
 
 Research and development ("R&D") costs are generally expensed as incurred. R&D expenses include, for example, manufacturing expenses for our drugs under development, expenses associated with clinical trials and associated salaries and benefits. R&D expenses also include an estimated allocation of the CEO's salary and related benefits including non-cash stock-based compensation expense based on time devoted to R&D.
