Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X.
 
The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 28, 2015, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for the year ended June 30, 2015.
 
Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: estimated useful lives of depreciable assets, the fair value of share-based payments and warrants, fair value of derivative instruments, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing and expected future operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Risks and Uncertainties
 
The Company's operations may be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks associated with a preclinical stage company, including the potential risk of business failure. See Note 3 regarding going concern matters.
 
Restricted Cash
 
Restricted cash consists of cash held in a joint account with our general contractor until the completion of the construction in progress.
 
Fixed Assets
 
Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The fixed assets as of September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 included $2,677,675 and $2,315,803, respectively, of construction in process in the buildout of our lab facilities and manufacturing suite. The Company estimates that the buildout will be completed in the first half of fiscal year 2016 at which time they will begin to be depreciated.
 
Research and Development Costs
 
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include salaries, benefits and other staff-related costs; consultants and outside costs; material manufacturing costs; and facilities and other costs. These costs relate to research and development costs without an allocation of general and administrative expenses.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Fair value is defined as 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 standard also expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
·
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;
 
·
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
 
·
Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
 
The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and convertible notes payable approximated fair value as of September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 due to the relatively short maturity of the respective instruments.
 
The warrant derivative liability recorded as of September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 is recorded at an estimated fair value based on a Black-Scholes pricing model. The warrant derivative liability is a level 3 fair value measurement with the entire change in the balance recorded through earnings. See significant assumptions in Note 8. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of financial instruments classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"), which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform assessments of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. We will be required to perform the going concern assessment under ASU 2014-15 beginning with the year ending June 30, 2017.
 
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), which eliminates the concept of extraordinary items. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. The new guidance is to be applied prospectively but may also be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We expect to adopt the provisions of this new guidance on July 1, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
