RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 (Unaudited)

 

A. GENERAL

 

RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated in 1982. The Company operates predominately in a single industry segment, the biotechnology industry. In general, the biotechnology industry consists of researching and developing new pharmaceutical products for the treatment, prevention or diagnosis of medical conditions which may result from infections, cancer, autoimmune disease, genetic abnormalities, or whose origins may be unknown. The Company’s current primary business focus is the commercialization of Thymosin beta 4 (“Tb4”), a 43 amino acid peptide and principal component of the Company’s technology platform. The Company is concentrating its efforts on developing Tb4 for various therapeutic uses such as the treatment of injured tissue and organs and to accelerate the healing of chronic wounds.

 

The Company currently has no products that have received regulatory approval. During 1997, the Company entered into a Material Transfer Agreement - Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (“CRADA”) with the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”). In exchange for providing Tb4 and certain data, the Company received an option to elect to negotiate for an exclusive or non-exclusive commercialization license from the NIH pursuant to a patent application filed by NIH in 1998. On February 6, 2001, the Company signed a licensing agreement with NIH whereby the Company obtained an exclusive world-wide license to Tb4 under the 1998 patent application. In exchange for the exclusive license, the Company must make certain royalty and milestone payments to the NIH. To date, all payments due have been made.

 

The Company anticipates incurring additional losses in the future as it continues development of Thymosin beta 4 and expands clinical trials for other indications of Thymosin beta 4. To achieve profitability, the Company, alone or with others, must successfully develop and commercialize its technologies and proposed products, conduct pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, obtain required regulatory approvals and successfully manufacture and market such technologies and proposed products. The time required to reach profitability is highly uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve profitability on a sustained basis, if at all.

 

The Company has incurred negative cash flows from operations since its inception. The Company has expended and expects to continue to expend in the future, substantial funds to complete its planned product development efforts. The Company expects that its existing capital resources will be adequate to fund the Company’s projected operations through June 2005, based on current and projected expenditure levels. Management plans to continue to refine its operations, control expenses, evaluate alternative methods to conduct its business, and seek available and attractive sources of financing and sharing of development costs through strategic collaboration agreements or other resources. Should appropriate sources of financing not be available, management would delay certain clinical trials and research activities until such time as appropriate financing was available. There can be no assurance that the Company’s financing efforts will be successful. If adequate funds are not available, our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.

 

Should the Company obtain substantial additional funding, other factors including competition, dependence on third parties, uncertainty regarding patents, protection of proprietary rights, manufacturing of peptides and technology obsolescence could also have a significant impact on the Company and its operations.

 

B. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2004, the Statements of Operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003, and the Statements of Cash Flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003, have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at September 30, 2004, and for the periods then ended, have been recorded. All adjustments recorded were of a normal recurring nature.

Table of Contents

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, such unaudited interim information reflects all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

C. NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

Net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003. During these periods options and warrants were not included in the calculation as their effect would be antidilutive.

 

D. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure.” This statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS No. 123’s fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions in SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The adoption of the disclosure only requirements of SFAS No. 148 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company uses the intrinsic value method for stock option grants to individuals defined as employees under which no compensation is recognized for options granted at or above the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date. The Company uses the fair value method for stock options granted for services rendered by non-employees in accordance with the SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation.”

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

E. PATENTS

 

The Company has capitalized $170,539 and $-0- related to patent costs during 2004 and 2003, respectively, and are included in other assets. The legal life of a patent is 20 years. The Company’s accounting policies for patents are as follows: (a) purchased patents are recorded at acquisition costs (legal fees from a successful defense are also capitalized ) and (b) internally developed patents – the following costs are capitalized (1) legal fees from the costs incurred in successful defense (2) other patent fees (legal, registration) (3) models and drawings required for registration and legal defense. All research and development costs incurred in developing the patentable idea are expensed as incurred.

 

F. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

 

Sale of Common Stock and Issuance of Warrants

 

On January 23, 2004, the Company completed a private placement of its common stock. Under the terms of the private placement, the Company sold 2,393,580 shares of common stock at $.95 per share. In addition, the Company granted 598,397 warrants, each of which is exercisable immediately to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share and has a term of 30 months. The total funds raised in the private placement totaled approximately $2.3 million.

 

Exercise of Warrants

 

On September 8, 2004, the Company received $1.5 million from Defiante Farmaceutica, L.d.a., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Italian pharmaceutical group, Sigma-Tau, in connection with the September 6, 2004 exercise of warrants associated with its June 10, 2003 purchase of RegeneRx common stock. Under the terms of the warrants, Defiante purchased 1,382,488 shares of RegeneRx common stock for $1.085 per share. There were no placement fees associated with the transaction.

 

G. SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company views its operations and manages its business as one segment, the development and marketing of Tb4. Factors used to identify the Company’s single operating segment include the financial information available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

 

This item should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company contained in Item 1 of this report. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Since its inception in 1982, the Company’s activities had consisted of conducting research and development, sponsoring clinical trials of its proprietary products, the construction and equipping of laboratory and production facilities, and the manufacture of products for research, testing and clinical trials. In 2000, the Company adopted a modified business plan calling for the outsourcing of most of the activities necessary to its mission of developing its Thymosin beta 4 (“Tb4”) technology for the treatment of chronic wounds. This business model allows for the rapid and efficient deployment of necessary resources without the burden of expensive and unwieldy infrastructure. It also allows the company to expand or contract its efforts depending on capital resources or other circumstances. The Company has not generated revenues from operations and does not anticipate generating product revenues or other revenues from operations for the foreseeable future. During the first nine months of 2004, the Company had no revenues and had operating losses of $2,510,924. The Company’s accumulated deficit of $41,680,124 through September 30, 2004 has been funded primarily by the proceeds from the issuance of common stock (and interest earned on such proceeds), the licensing of technology developed or acquired by the Company, limited product sales and royalties, and the sale of royalty rights. The Company will require substantial additional funding in order to complete research and development activities, manufacturing for clinical trials, and the eventual marketing of any products that the Company intends to develop.

 

On June 11, 2003, the Company completed the sale of 3,184,713 shares of common stock pursuant to a private placement at a price of $.628 per share to Defiante Farmaceutica, L.d.a. (“Defiante”), a Portuguese company that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sigma-Tau, S.p.A., a pharmaceutical company headquartered in Rome, Italy. The Company received approximately $2 million in proceeds. In addition, the Company granted Defiante warrants to purchase up to $1.5 million of additional restricted common stock of the Company at prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.25 per share (or higher under certain circumstances) over a period of 18 months.

 

On January 22, 2004, the Company exclusively licensed certain European rights to Tb4 to Defiante. Defiante will develop Tb4 for internal and external wounds in Europe and certain other contiguous and geographically relevant countries. The Agreement expires on a country-by-country basis upon the later of the expiration of the last to expire of any granted patent in the territory having at least one valid claim covering the products then on the market, the expiration of any other exclusive or proprietary marketing rights or twelve years from the effective date. Under the Agreement, Defiante will pay the Company a royalty on commercial sales and will exclusively purchase all required Tb4 from the Company. When the Company completes a positive Phase II clinical trial in the United States, Defiante must either pay the Company $5 million or initiate pivotal Phase III clinical trials in Europe to maintain the license. Defiante also will be obligated to attain future clinical and regulatory milestones in the licensed territory. If those milestones are obtained, certain performance criteria regarding commercial registration and minimum annual royalties will be required in each licensed country. Such obligations for potential milestones and the related performance criteria to be attained by Defiante are too attenuated at this time to be estimable. The Agreement does not prevent the Company from sublicensing the technology in countries outside the licensed territory and has no impact on any U.S. rights.

 

On January 23, 2004, the Company completed the sale of 2,393,580 shares of common stock pursuant to a private placement at a price of $.95 per share to Defiante and several private investors. The Company received approximately $2.3 million in proceeds. In addition, the Company granted investors warrants to purchase 1 share of common stock for every 4 shares of common stock purchased in the offering at a price of $1.50 per share over a period of 30 months.

 

On September 6, 2004, Defiante exercised warrants to purchase $1.5 million of restricted stock at an average price of $1.085 per share that were associated with the June 11, 2003, private placement.

Table of Contents

The Company’s strategy is to independently develop Tb4 in the United States for chronic dermal wounds through completion of Phase II or initiation of Phase III clinical trials. Although the Company has no products that have received regulatory approval to date, the Company’s Investigational New Drug Application was accepted by the United States Food and Drug Administration in December 2002 allowing the Company to commence the human testing of Tb4 for dermal wounds. The Company initiated a Phase I human clinical trial in March 2003, which studies were designed to establish safety in human subjects, and successfully completed the trial in September 2003. There were no significant adverse events associated with the drug in Phase I and results demonstrated it was well tolerated by all subjects.

 

During the first half of 2004, the Company initiated and completed expanded animal studies in preparation of submission of its first Phase II IND application to test Tb4 in patients with chronic pressure ulcers. The Company filed the IND amendment in September 2004 and was cleared to initiate the Phase II trial in October 2004. The Company has recently raised additional capital which it is using, in part, to initiate its Phase II trial program consisting of four - six separate clinical trials. The Company believes the Phase II trials, which it hopes to conduct in a step-wise, parallel fashion, will take approximately 12-18 months and will cost over $3 million. The Company expects to pay for such trials from (i) current capital, (ii) additional capital it intends to raise in the future, (iii) its partner, Sigma-Tau, that has committed to pay for one of the Phase II trials – a study in patients with venous stasis ulcers to be conducted in Europe, and (iv) from proceeds of a grant submitted to the U.S. FDA Office of Orphan Products, which the Company hopes to receive in January in 2005, specifically for a Phase II trial in patients with epidermolysis bullosa.

 

At September 30, 2004, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $2,207,916 and working capital of $2,087,377 and total assets were $2,549,231. The Company believes that its cash balances will be sufficient to sustain current operations at least through June 2005. The Company is currently pursuing several potential financing alternatives for continued funding of its research, development and clinical trials programs. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital necessary to timely execute its current plan of operation or continue such a plan of operation beyond June 2005 unless substantial additional capital is raised.

 

As the Company utilizes an out-sourcing operating strategy it does not currently expect to purchase or sell any properties. However, due to its expanding clinical trial program and implementation of additional Sarbanes-Oxley requirements in 2005, the Company may increase its staff by two or three additional employees. For more information about the Company’s virtual company strategy, see “Item 1. Business” of the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

 

Forward-looking Statements

 

When used in this Form 10-QSB and in future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company’s press releases or other public or shareholder communications, and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and those presently anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that various factors could affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: the Company’s lack of revenues and history of losses; uncertainties related to the Company’s limited capital resources; risks associated with the development of the Company’s products; uncertainties related to the regulatory process; the Company’s lack of product diversification; the Company’s dependence on collaborative relationships with larger partners for the development, manufacturing and marketing of its products; reliance upon key personnel; the Company’s ability to obtain and protect intellectual property rights; and competition. The Company does not undertake, and specifically declines any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
