BEYOND AIR, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Beyond Air, Inc. (“Beyond Air” or the “Company”) was incorporated on April 24, 2015 as KokiCare, Inc. under the laws of the State of Delaware. On January 9, 2017, the name of the Company was changed to AIT Therapeutics, Inc. The Company filed an Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name from AIT Therapeutics, Inc. to Beyond Air, Inc., effective June 26, 2019.

 

Advanced Inhalation Therapies Ltd. was incorporated in Israel on May 1, 2011 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On July 4, 2019, Advanced Inhalation Therapies Ltd name was changed to Beyond Air, Ltd (“BA Ltd.)”.

 

In December 2016, the Company consummated a reverse merger with KokiCare, Inc. Under reverse recapitalization accounting, BA Ltd. was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Consequently, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the operations of the acquirer for accounting purposes together with a deemed issuance of shares, equivalent to the shares held by the former stockholders of the legal acquirer and a recapitalization of the equity of the accounting acquirer. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company since the effective date of the reverse capitalization and the accounts of BA Ltd. since inception.

 

The Company is an emerging medical device company that is developing a Nitric Oxide (“NO”) delivery system that generates NO from ambient air. Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning and research and development.

 

Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cash used in operating activities of $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and has accumulated losses of $43.8 million. The Company has cash equivalents and marketable securities of $11.7 million as of June 30, 2019. Included in marketable securities are common shares of Circassia Pharmaceuticals plc of $2.8 million (Note 3 and 9). Based upon the Company’s current business plan, and expected cash utilization, the Company estimates that it will have enough cash, including the proceeds from the sale of all its marketable securities, to operate its business until the end of the third calendar quarter of 2020.

 

The Company’s future capital needs and the adequacy of its available funds will depend on many factors, including the cost of clinical studies and other actions needed to obtain regulatory approval of our medical devices in development. The Company will be required to raise additional funds through sale of equity or debt securities or through strategic collaboration and/or licensing agreements, to fund operations and continue our clinical trials until the Company is able to generate enough product or royalty revenues, if any. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our growth plans, our results of operations and our financial condition.

 

On June 3, 2019, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreements with investors and issued 1,583,743 unregistered shares of common stock. The Company raised net proceeds of $7,839,495.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS (continued)

 

On July 2, 2019, the SEC declared effective the Company’s Form S3 shelf registration statement which allows the Company to sell up to $100 million of equity securities.

 

In addition, the Company has a $20 million purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) and a registration rights agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”), providing for the issuance of up to $20 million of the Company’s common stock over 36 months at the Company’s discretion (Note 5). Subsequent to June 30, 2019 through August 9, 2019, the Company issued and sold to LPC 160,000 shares of common stock for proceeds of $808,184, representing at an average price of $5.05 per share.

 

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required to be presented for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the assumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31,2019 which was filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC”), on June 28, 2019.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of BA Ltd. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates are accrual of expenses under consulting and licensing agreements, stock-based compensation, assumptions associated with revenue recognition, and the determination of deferred tax attributes and the valuation allowance thereon.

 

Other Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company is subject to risks common to medical device companies including, but not limited to, new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, product liability, uncertainty of market acceptance of products and the potential need to obtain additional financing. The Company is dependent on third party suppliers, in some cases single-source suppliers.

BEYOND AIR, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

There can be no assurance that the Company’s products will to be accepted in the marketplace, nor can there be any assurance that any future products can be developed or manufactured at an acceptable cost and with appropriate performance characteristics, or that such products will be successfully marketed, if at all.

 

The Company’s products require approval or clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration prior to commencing commercial sales in the United States. The Company is expected to file a Premarketing (PMA) Approval application during the end of the third calendar quarter of 2019 for its first product. There can be no assurance that the Company’s products will receive all of the required approvals or clearances. Approvals or clearances are also required in foreign jurisdictions in which the Company may license or sell its products. If the Company is denied such approvals or clearances or such approvals or clearances are delayed, it may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

 

Concentrations

 

The Company’s license revenue was from two milestone payments from one customer. The Company is seeking additional Partners outside of the United States and China.

 

We are heavily dependent on the Aeronox system, which is a portable titration and monitoring system that delivers nitric oxide gas and measures nitric oxide and nitro dioxide gas concentrations in parts per million (ppm). The company that manufactures it is International Biomedical, located in Texas. If International Biomedical decides not to continue to support the Aeronox system (for example, selling parts and providing repair services for the device), then we might not be able to conduct our anticipated trials. This system is not manufactured specifically for us, and we have no agreement with International Biomedical for the continued manufacture or support of this Aeronox system. Additionally, the Aeronox system is not currently approved for use in the U.S. above 80 ppm concentration required by our proprietary NO formulations, and we currently engage a third-party contractor to modify the Aeronox system in order for it to monitor our NO formulations above 80 ppm. Unless the Aeronox system obtains such approval, of which we have no current expectation, we would be required to seek an alternative delivery system in order to conduct a clinical trial of our formulation within the U.S.

 

In addition, the Company relies on two vendors to manufacture its delivery system. The Company is reliant on the vendors for commercial manufacturing of our delivery systems for both clinical studies and commercial supply, if regulatory approval is received.

 

Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other interest-bearing accounts in major banks in Israel and the U.S., the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

 

The Company has no off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

 

Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less at acquisition. Restricted cash is collateral for vehicle leases and invested in bank deposit accounts.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses are charged to the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as incurred. Research and development expenses include salaries and stock-based compensation as well as costs incurred by outside laboratories, consultants and accredited facilities in connection with regulatory approval process, the clinical trials and preclinical studies.

 

Revenue

 

The Company recognizes revenue when we transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation(s). At contract inception, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract, assess whether each promised good or service is distinct and identify those that are performance obligations.

 

The Company must use judgment to determine: a) the number of performance obligations based on the determination under step (ii) above and whether those performance obligations are distinct from other performance obligations in the contract; b) the transaction price under step (iii) above; and c) the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract for the allocation of transaction price in step (iv) above. The Company uses judgment to determine whether milestones or other variable consideration, except for royalties, should be included in the transaction price. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on an estimated stand-alone selling price basis, for which the Company recognizes revenue as or when the performance obligations under the contract are satisfied, see (Note 9).

 

Where a portion of non-refundable up-front fees or other payments received are allocated to continuing performance obligations under the terms of a license arrangement, they are recorded as contract liabilities and recognized as revenue when (or as) the underlying performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Segment reporting

 

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. To date, we have viewed our operations and managed our business as one segment.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized in income or expense in the period that the change is effective. Tax benefits are recognized when it is probable that the deduction will be sustained. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will either expire before the Company is able to realize the benefit, or that future deductibility is uncertain. As of June 30, 2019, and March 31, 2019, the Company recorded a valuation allowance to the full extent of our net deferred tax assets since the likelihood of realization of the benefit does not meet the more likely than not threshold.

NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Foreign Exchange Transactions

 

BA Ltd. operations are in Israel and Beyond Air’s operations are in the United States. The Company’s management believes that the U.S. dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future. Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The Company’s transactions and balances denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Non-dollar transactions and balances have been re-measured to U.S. dollars in accordance with the Accounting Standards Board Codification Topic 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Fair value for restricted stock awards is valued using the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award - the requisite service period. The grant-date fair value of employee share options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments. The risk-free interest rate assumptions were based upon the observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the equity instruments. The expected dividend yield was assumed to be zero as the Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company does not have enough history to establish volatility based upon its own stock trading. Therefore, the expected volatility was based similar publicly traded peer companies. The Company routinely reviews its calculation of volatility based on, the Company’s life cycle, its peer group, and other factors. The Company uses the simplified method for share-based compensation to estimate the expected term Compensation expense for options and warrants granted to non-employees is determined by the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured, and is recognized over the service period. The expense was previously adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period until such awards vested, and the fair value of such instruments, as adjusted, was expensed over the related vesting period. Adjustments to fair value at each reporting date resulted in income or expense, depending upon the estimate of fair value and the amount of expense recorded prior to the adjustment. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Stock-based Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting, which amends the existing accounting standards for share-based payments to nonemployees. This ASU aligns much of the guidance on measuring and classifying nonemployee awards with that of awards to employees. Under the new guidance, the measurement of nonemployee equity awards is fixed on the grant date. We adopted this ASU the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, and as a result, the fair value of all non-employee awards became fixed at the start of the fourth quarter.

Investment in Marketable Securities

 

Investments in equity marketable securities classified available for sale are carried at fair value with the changes in unrealized gains and losses recognized in the Company’s results in operations. Realized gains and (loss) from the sale of marketable securities are recognized in the statement of operations. using the specific identification method on a trade. date basis. Additionally, we assess our marketable debt securities for potential other-than-temporary impairment The Company employ a methodology that considers available evidence in evaluating potential other-than-temporary impairment of our marketable equity securities classified as available-for-sale. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, we evaluate, among other factors, the magnitude and duration of the decline in fair value.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:

 

Computers equipment Three years
Furniture and fixtures Seven years
Clinical and medical equipment Fifteen years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of term of lease or estimated useful life of the asset

 

Licensed Right to Use Technology

 

Licensed right to use technology is an intangible asset resulting from the NitricGen transaction, (see Note 11). The intangible asset was valued based upon the fair value of the options issued to NitricGen and the cash paid for this transaction. The license contains two future milestone payments aggregating $1,800,000. The intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line method over its estimated useful life of thirteen years.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company assess the impairment of long-lived assets on an ongoing basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider that could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results,
   
significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business,
   
significant negative regulatory or economic trends, and
   
significant technological changes, which would render equipment and manufacturing processes obsolete.

 

Recoverability of assets that will continue to be used in our operations is measured by comparing the carrying value to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. Future undiscounted cash flows include estimates of future revenues, driven by market growth rates, and estimated future costs. There were no events during the reporting periods that were deemed to be a triggering event that would require an impairment assessment.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive common stock outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding options, warrants, and other stock-based compensation awards is reflected in diluted net income (loss) per share by application of the treasury stock method. The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share excludes all anti-dilutive common shares. For periods in which the Company has reported net losses, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, because such common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

On April 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), as amended, which generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (ROU) assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. The Company early adopted the new guidance using the modified retrospective transition approach and practical expedients to all leases existing at the date of initial application and not restating comparative periods, see Note 11).

 

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as prepaid or accrued rent. The interest rate implicit in our leases is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. In transition to ASC 842, the Company utilized the remaining lease term of its leases in determining the appropriate incremental borrowing rates. The weighted average discount rate and remaining term on lease obligation is approximately 8.3% and 3.7 years. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses. Amortization expense for finance (capital) leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses, while interest expense for finance leases is recognized using the effective interest method.

 

As of the April 1, 2019, the adoption date, the Company has identified three operating lease arrangements. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets of approximately of $266,600 and $258,600, respectively. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive loss or unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting standard during the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the recent accounting standards described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019, that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

NOTE 3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The Company’s financial instruments primarily include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities and accounts payable. Due to the short-term nature of cash, cash equivalents and accounts payable, the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities approximate their fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tiered hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value. A fair value hierarchy has been established for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

  Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
     
  Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or
     
  Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

On October 22, 2013, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with a third party, pursuant to which AIT agreed to pay to the third party a non-refundable upfront fee of $150,000 and is obligated to pay 5% royalties of any licensed product net sales, but at least $50,000 per annum through the term of the agreement and the advance is credited against future royalties payments. As of June 30, 2019, the Company did not pay any royalties since the Company did not have any revenues from this license. The term of the agreement extends through the life of applicable patents and may be terminated by either party with 60 days’ prior written notice in the event of a breach of the agreement, and may be terminated unilaterally by CareFusion with 30 days’ prior written notice in the event that we do not meet certain milestones.

 

In August 2015, BA Ltd entered into an Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with a third party whereby AIT acquired the Option to purchase certain intellectual property assets and rights (the “Option”) on September 7, 2016 for $25,000. On January 13, 2017, the Company exercised the Option and paid $500,000.

Litigation Contingencies

 

On March 16, 2018, Empery Asset Master, Ltd., Empery Tax Efficient, LP and Empery Tax Efficient II, LP, (collectively, “Empery”), filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, relating to the notice of adjustment of both the exercise price of and the number of warrant shares issuable under warrants issued to Empery in January 2017. The Empery Suit alleges that, as a result of certain circumstances in connection with the February 2018 Offering, the January 2017 Warrants issued to Empery provide for adjustments to both the exercise price of the warrants and the number of warrant shares issuable upon such exercise. Empery seeks monetary damages and declaratory relief under theories of breach of contract or contract reformation predicated on mutual mistake. The Company intends to vigorously defend all claims. The Company believes they met the contractual requirements of the contract and properly adjusted the applicable warrants in accordance with the protection features.

 

Given the early stage of the litigation, it is not possible to determine or assess the probability of any particular outcome.

 

Certain officer agreements contain a change of control provision for payment of severance arrangements.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs or intentions regarding our product offerings, business, financial condition, results of operations, strategies or prospects. You can identify such forward-looking statements by the words “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely,” “goal,” “assumes,” “targets” and similar expressions and/or the use of future tense or conditional constructions (such as “will,” “may,” “could,” “should” and the like) and by the fact that these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results as of the date such statements are made. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause our actual activities or results to differ materially and results anticipated in forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and reflect our views as of the date they are made with respect to future events and financial performance. We undertake no obligation to update, and we do not have a policy of updating or revising, these forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law. Please see Item 1A “Risk Factors” contained in our most recently filed Transitional Report on Form 10-KT, and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Introduction

 

We are an emerging medical device company developing a nitric oxide (“NO”) generator and delivery system (the “Beyond Air NOGDS”) that is capable of generating NO from ambient air. The Beyond Air NOGDS can generate NO up to 400 parts per million (“ppm”) for delivery to a patient’s lungs. The Beyond Air NOGDS can deliver NO either continuously or for a fixed amount of time at various flow rates and has the ability to either titrate dose on demand or maintain a constant dose. We believe that the Beyond Air NOGDS can be used to treat patients on ventilators that require NO, as well as patients with chronic lung disease or acute severe lung infections via delivery through a breathing mask or similar apparatus. Furthermore, we believe that there is a high unmet medical need for patients suffering from certain severe lung infections that our Beyond Air NOGDS can potentially address. Our initial areas of focus are persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (“PPHN”), bronchiolitis (“BRO”) and nontuberculous mycobacteria (“NTM”). Our current product candidates will be subject to premarket reviews and approvals by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, as well as similar regulatory agencies in other countries or regions. If approved, our system will be marketed as a medical device in the U.S.

 

With respect to PPHN, our novel Beyond Air NOGDS is designed to deliver a dosage of NO to the lungs that is consistent with current guidelines for delivery of 20 ppm NO with a range of 0.5 ppm – 80 ppm (low-concentration NO). We believe our Beyond Air NOGDS has many competitive advantages over the current approved NO delivery systems in the U.S., European Union, Japan and other markets. For example, our Beyond Air NOGDS does not require the use of a high-pressure cylinder, utilizes less space than other similar devices, does not require cumbersome purging procedures and places less burden on hospital staff in carrying out safety procedures.

 

Our novel Beyond Air NOGDS can also deliver a high concentration of NO to the lungs, which we believe has the potential to eliminate microbial infections, including bacteria, fungi and viruses, among other benefits. We believe current FDA approved NO vasodilation treatments would have limited success in treating microbial infections given the low concentrations of NO being delivered. Given that NO is produced naturally by the body as an innate immunity mechanism at a concentration of 200 ppm, supplemental high dose NO should aid in the body’s fight against infection. Based on our clinical studies, we believe that 160 ppm is the minimum therapeutic dose to achieve the desired pulmonary antimicrobial effect of NO. To date, neither the FDA nor equivalent regulatory agencies in other countries or regions have approved any NO formulation and/or delivery system for the delivery of a dosage of NO at 160 ppm or higher to the lungs.

 

26
 

 

To date, we have not generated revenue from the sale of any product, and we do not expect to generate revenue unless and until we obtain marketing approval of, and commercialize, our product candidates. As of June 30, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $43,825,393. Our financing activities are described below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The accounting policies followed in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing at the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are consistent in all material respects with those included in Note 2 of our Annual Report on the Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required to be presented for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The accompanying condensed consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the assumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019 which was filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC”), on June 28, 2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 with the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018

 

Revenue

 

License revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $627,469 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

 

On January 23, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement for commercial rights (“the License Agreement”) with Circassia Pharmaceuticals plc, (“Circassia”) (located in the United Kingdom) for PPHN and future related indications at concentrations of < 80 ppm in the hospital setting in the United States and China. The Company may receive payments up to $32.5 million in up front and regulatory milestones, of which $31.5 million is associated with the U.S. market. All such payments are payable in cash or ordinary shares of Circassia Pharmaceuticals plc, at the discretion of Circassia Pharmaceuticals, Inc., with payments in cash discounted by approximately 5%. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company met the first two milestones under the license agreement and received 17,572,815 ordinary shares valued at $9,987,295. This consideration was allocated to two separate identified performance obligations, one being the transfer of the intellectual property to Circassia, which was recognized at a point in time and was valued at $9,987,295, and the other being the ongoing support associated with the PMA submission and regulatory approval by the FDA, which was valued at $2.4 million and recorded as deferred revenue to be recognized over a period of time from the commencement of the agreement to when management expects to submit the PMA. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, $627,000 of such deferred revenue associated with this second performance obligation has been recognized with $1.2 million being cumulatively recognized through June 30, 2019.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $2,323,513 as compared to $1,063,145 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase of $1,260,368 was primarily attributed to development of NO Generator and Delivery System and pre-clinical studies of $1,152,800 and an increase in stock-based compensation of $80,500.

 

28
 

 

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019, was $2,182,558 as compared to the three months June 30, 2018 of $693,005. The difference of $1,489,553 was primarily attributed to an increase stock-based compensation expense of $760,000, an increase in professional fees of $330,000 and $106,900 in salary and benefits due to the hiring of employees.

 

Other income (loss)

 

Other loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $230,219 as compared other income $32,4000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Other loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily from the realized and unrealized loss of Circassia Pharmaceuticals plc stock of $2,307,319.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

We have incurred losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since inception. To date, we have not generated any revenue from the sale of products, and we do not expect to generate revenue from sale of our products in the next several years. Since the time the Company became public through June 30, 2019, we have funded our operations principally through the issuance of equity securities. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has used cash from operating activities of $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and has accumulated losses of $43.6 million through June 30, 2019.The Company has cash equivalent and marketable securities of $11.7 million as of June 30, 2019. Included in marketable securities is Circassia Pharmaceuticals plc of $2.8 million. Based upon the Company’s business plan and expected burn utilization including proceeds from the sale of all its marketable securities, the Company estimates that it will have enough cash to operate its business until the end of the third quarter 2020. Insufficient funds may cause us to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our development programs.

 

On July 2, 2019, the SEC declared effective the Company’s Form S3 shelf registration statement which allows the Company to sell up to$100 million of equity securities.

 

In addition, the Company has a $20 million purchase agreement and a registration rights agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”), providing for the issuance of up to $20 million of the Company’s common stock over 36 months at the Company’s discretion. Subsequent to June 30, 2019, the Company issued and sold to LPC 160,000 shares of common stock for proceeds of $808,184, representing an average price of $5.05 per share. There is $16,673,821 remaining on the Purchase Agreement.

 

Our ability to continue to operate is dependent upon the filing of our PMA, regulatory of the PMA expected timing of the Company’s launch of our product, obtaining partners in other parts of the world, timing of future milestones, royalties and, raising additional funds to finance our activities. There are no assurances that we will be successful in obtaining an adequate level of financing for the development and commercialization of our product candidates. The Company’s ability to continue to operate is dependent upon raising additional funds to finance its activities.

 

There are numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of our NO delivery system, we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenses associated with completing the research and development of our product candidate.

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

 

  the progress and costs of our preclinical studies, clinical trials and other research and development activities;
     
  the scope, prioritization and number of our clinical trials and other research and development programs;
     
  the costs and timing of obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;
     
  the costs of filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual property rights;
     
  the costs of, and timing for, strengthening our manufacturing agreements for production of sufficient clinical quantities of our product candidate;
     
  the potential costs of contracting with third parties to provide marketing and distribution services for us or for building such capacities internally;
     
  the costs of acquiring or undertaking the development and commercialization efforts for additional, future therapeutic applications of our product candidate;
     
  the magnitude of our general and administrative expenses; and
     
  any cost that we may incur under current and future in-and out-licensing arrangements relating to our product candidate.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

 

Our results of operations and cash flow are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Certain of our expenses are denominated in New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”). Our results of operations and cash flow are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. We do not hedge our foreign currency exchange risk. In the future, we may enter into formal currency hedging transactions to decrease the risk of financial exposure from fluctuations in the exchange rates of our principal operating currencies. These measures, however, may not adequately protect us from significant changes in such fluctuations.

 

We have received Circassia Shares as payment, the price will be converted into US dollars for purposes of calculating our payment. As a result, our payment will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect to British Pounds. Our net payment will depend on the extent to which British Pounds strengthens or weakens against the U.S. dollar and the relative weight of Circassia Shares we receive as payment. If, taking into account such weighting, the U.S. dollar strengthens against British Pounds, the price of Circassia Shares will be adversely affected and our payment may be reduced.

 

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of foreign currency exchange rates.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2019.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

 

Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

 

Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of June 30, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
