DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Inotiv, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company,” and “Inotiv”) comprise a leading contract research organization (“CRO”) dedicated to providing nonclinical and analytical drug discovery and development services to the pharmaceutical and medical device industries and selling a range of research-quality animals and diets to the same industries as well as academia and government clients. Our products and services focus on bringing new drugs and medical devices through the discovery and preclinical phases of development, all while increasing efficiency, improving data, and reducing the cost of discovering and taking new drugs and medical devices to market. Inotiv is committed to supporting discovery and development objectives as well as helping researchers realize the full potential of their critical research and development projects, all while working together to build a healthier and safer world. We are dedicated to practicing high standards of laboratory animal care and welfare.
As a result of our strategic acquisition of Envigo RMS Holding Corp. (“Envigo”) in November 2021, which added a complementary research model platform, our full spectrum solutions now span two segments: Discovery and Safety Assessment (“DSA”) and Research Models and Services (“RMS”).
Through our DSA segment, we support the discovery, nonclinical development and clinical development needs of researchers and clinicians for primarily small molecule drug candidates, as well as biotherapeutics and biomedical devices. Our scientists have skills in analytical instrumentation development, chemistry, computer software development, histology, pathology, physiology, surgery, analytical chemistry, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology to make the services and products we provide increasingly valuable to our current and potential clients. Our principal clients are companies whose scientists are engaged in analytical chemistry, drug safety evaluation, clinical trials, drug metabolism studies, pharmacokinetics and basic research, from small start-up biotechnology companies to some of the largest global pharmaceutical companies.
Through our RMS segment, we offer access to a wide range of small and large research models for basic research and drug discovery and development, as well as specialized models for specific diseases and therapeutic areas. We combine deep animal husbandry expertise and expanded access to scientists across the discovery and preclinical continuum, which reduces nonclinical lead times and provides enhanced project delivery. In conjunction with our CRO business, we have the ability to run selected nonclinical studies directly on-site at closely located research model facilities and provide access to innovative genetically engineered models and services solutions. Our principal clients include biopharmaceutical companies, CROs, and academic and government organizations.
Temporarily Suspended or Limited Operations
On November 16, 2022, the Company became aware that the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida (“USAO-SDFL”) had criminally charged employees of the principal supplier of non-human primates (“NHPs”) to the Company, along with two Cambodian government officials, with conspiring to illegally import NHPs into the U.S. from December 2017 through January 2022 and in connection with seven specific imports between July 2018 and December 2021 (the “November 16, 2022 event”). Also as previously disclosed, two of the Company’s subsidiaries, Orient BioResource Center, Inc. (“OBRC”) and Envigo Global Services, Inc. (“EGSI”), companies acquired by the Company on January 27, 2022 and November 5, 2021, respectively, had received grand jury subpoenas from USAO-SDFL requiring the production of documents and information related to their importation of NHPs into the U.S. The Company has been fully cooperating, and will continue to cooperate, with USAO-SDFL.
The Company has not been directed to refrain from selling the Cambodian NHPs in its possession in the U.S. However, due to the allegations contained in the indictment involving the supplier and the Cambodian government officials, the Company believed that it was prudent, at the time and through January 13, 2023, to refrain from selling or delivering any of its Cambodian NHPs held in the U.S. until the Company’s staff and external experts evaluated what additionally could be done to satisfy itself that the NHPs in inventory from Cambodia can be reasonably determined to be purpose-bred. Historically, the Company has relied on the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (“CITES”) documentation and related processes and procedures, including release of each import by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Company has continued to sell NHPs from other suppliers. Subsequent to January 13,
2023, and through the date of this report, and after an internal analysis and review, the Company has shipped a number of its Cambodian NHP inventory; however, the Company is not currently shipping Cambodian NHPs at the same volumes that it was prior to the November 16, 2022 event. The Company expects to establish new procedures before it will resume Cambodian NHP imports. The Company expects that future imports of NHPs from Cambodia will be dependent on working with third parties to establish additional procedures aiming at providing additional assurances that future NHP imports from Cambodia are purpose-bred.
Of the Company’s total revenue of $547,656 in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, approximately $140,000 was from NHPs that it had imported from Cambodia. Refer to the "Liquidity" section below and Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for further discussion of impacts to the nine months ended June 30, 2023, and expected future impacts.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $22,220. The November 16, 2022 event and subsequent decision to refrain from selling or delivering Cambodian NHPs held in the U.S., triggered a material adverse event clause in our Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 6 – Debt) resulting in, among other things, a limitation of the Company’s ability to draw on its revolving credit facility. The loss of access to the Company’s revolving credit facility and reduced liquidity resulting from the decision to refrain from selling Cambodian NHPs held in the U.S. resulted in reduced forecasted liquidity. As a result of these events, the Company took steps to improve its liquidity, which included negotiating an amendment to its Credit Agreement, which was executed on January 9, 2023, to reinstate its ability to borrow under its revolving credit facility. Without the amendment, the Company was at risk of not having the revolving credit facility available.
As a result of the Company's site optimization strategy, the Company announced the completion of the closure of the Cumberland, Virginia (“Cumberland”) facility during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023. Further, the Dublin, Virginia (“Dublin”) facility transition was completed in November 2022, the exits of the Boyertown, Pennsylvania (“Boyertown”) and Haslett, Michigan (“Haslett”) facilities were completed in March 2023 and the relocation of operations for Gannat, France (“Gannat”) and St. Louis, Missouri (“RMS St. Louis”) were completed in June 2023. In addition to the completed closures and consolidations, the facility in Blackthorn, U.K. (“Blackthorn”) is expected to be complete by the end of June 2024. Refer to Note 10 – Restructuring and Assets Held for Sale for further information regarding the site optimization plan.
Further, the Company has executed price increases that began in January 2023. The Company also took steps in reducing its 2023 budgeted capital expenditures and certain forecasted expenses, including a reduction of nonessential travel and employee-related expenses, among other efficiency-based reductions. As a result of the above measures, the Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund its operations, satisfy its obligations, including cash outflows for planned targeted capital expenditures, and comply with minimum liquidity and financial covenant requirements under its debt covenants under its Credit Agreement, for at least the next twelve months. The forecasted operating cash flows include the shipping of the Company’s existing Cambodian NHP inventory. See Note 6 – Debt for further information about the Company’s existing credit facilities and requirements under its debt covenants. The Company’s liquidity needs and compliance with covenants depend, among other things, on the timing of NHP shipments and its ability to generate cash from operations.
Basis of Presentation
The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 include all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and of the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2023. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified within the statements of cash flows for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These include, but are not limited to, management estimates in the calculation and timing of revenue recognition, pension liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and the related valuation allowance. Although estimates are based upon management’s best estimate using historical experience, current events, and actions, actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known.
Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company, including all subsidiaries and a variable interest entity (“VIE”) it consolidates in accordance with GAAP. The Company consolidates a VIE as a result of the Envigo acquisition. The VIE does not materially impact our net assets or net income (loss).
The Company accounts for noncontrolling interests in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 requires companies with noncontrolling interests to disclose such interests as a portion of equity but separate from the parent’s equity. The noncontrolling interests’ portion of net income (loss) is presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended September 30, 2022, and there have been no material changes to those significant accounting policies.
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables from customers in the biopharmaceutical, contract research, academic, and governmental sectors. The Company believes its exposure to credit risk is minimal, as the majority of the customers are predominantly well established and viable. Additionally, the Company maintains allowances for potential credit losses. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event that payment is not received for revenue recognized equals the outstanding trade receivables and contract assets less fees invoiced in advance.
During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023, one customer accounted for 19.7% and 22.5% of sales, respectively. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, one customer accounted for 30.9% and 28.9% of sales, respectively. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023, no vendors accounted for more than 10% of cost of revenues. During the three and nine ended June 30, 2022, one vendor accounted for 13.0% and 13.7% of cost of revenues, respectively.
