The Company reviews all outstanding warrants in accordance with the requirements of ASC 815. This topic provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The warrant agreements provide for adjustments to the exercise price for certain dilutive events. Under the provisions of ASC 815, the warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s stock because future equity offerings or sales of the Company’s stock are not an input to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed” option on equity shares, and equity classification is therefore precluded.

 

In accordance with ASC 815, derivative liabilities must be measured at fair value upon issuance and re-valued at the end of each reporting period through expiration. Any change in fair value between the respective reporting dates is recognized as a gain or loss.

 

Expiration of Derivative Liabilities

 

On December 10, 2018, 1,360,960 Series DD and 1,360,960 Series EE warrants, with an exercise price of $4.50, expired.

 

On October 11, 2018, 327,729 Series S warrants, with an exercise price of $31.25, expired.

 

No derivative liabilities expired during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

   2.             Securities Purchase Agreement

 

The Company has entered into several Securities Purchase Agreements (SPAs) with Ergomed plc, one of its Clinical Research Organizations responsible for managing the Phase 3 clinical trial, to facilitate a partial payment of amounts due Ergomed. Under the Agreements, the Company issued Ergomed shares of common stock as a forbearance fee in exchange for Ergomed’s agreement to provisionally forbear collection of the payables in an amount equal to the net proceeds from the resales of the shares issued to Ergomed. Upon issuance, the Company expenses the full value of the shares as Other Non-Operating Gain/Loss and subsequently offsets the expense as amounts are realized through the resale by Ergomed and reduces accounts payable to Ergomed. Any amounts received from the resell of the shares in excess of the payables will be applied towards the satisfaction of any future amounts owed.

 

On December 31, 2018, the prior SPA expired. Pursuant to that arrangement, Ergomed returned all 564,905 unsold shares for cancellation. The par value of those shares was reclassed from Common Stock to Additional Paid-In Capital on the balance sheet.

 

On January 9, 2019, the Company entered into a new SPA under which it issued Ergomed 500,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock valued at approximately $1.3 million. This current SPA expires on December 31, 2019.

 

During the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company decreased Accounts Payable by approximately $1.7 million and $1.2 million through the resale of 545,324 and 684,541 shares.

 

The following table summarizes the Other Non-Operating Gains (Loss) for the six and three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 relating to these agreements:

 

    Six Months Ended     Three Months Ended  
    3/31/2019     3/31/2018     3/31/2019     3/31/2018  
Amount realized through the resale of shares   $ 1,711,353     $ 1,225,291     $ 559,177     $ 478,590  
Fair value of shares upon issuance     1,290,000       1,247,400       1,290,000       1,247,400  
Other non-operating gain (loss)   $ 421,353     $ (22,109 )   $ (730,823 )   $ (768,810 )

 

As of March 31, 2019, Ergomed holds 308,671 shares and may resell the shares or return the shares to the Company for cancellation until December 31, 2019.

 

3. Incentive Stock Bonus Plan

 

During the six and three months ended March 31, 2019, 3,500 shares of common stock issued from the 2014 Incentive Stock Bonus Plan were forfeited.
