NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of February 28, 2013, the Company has operating and liquidity concerns and, as a result of recurring losses, has incurred an accumulated deficit of $42,613,559. The Company will have to raise additional capital in order to initiate Phase IIb clinical trials for MCT-125, its therapeutic product for the treatment of fatigue in multiple sclerosis patients, conduct further research on MCT-465 and MCT-485 for the treatment of primary liver cancer, and initiate clinical trials for Xenogenic’s bioabsorbable, drug eluting stent, the Ideal BioStent™. The Company’s management is evaluating several sources of financing for the Company’s clinical trial program. Additionally, with its strategic shift in focus to therapeutic programs and technologies, management expects the Company’s future cash requirements to increase significantly as it advances the Company’s therapeutic programs into clinical trials. Until the Company is successful in raising additional funds, it may have to prioritize its therapeutic programs and delays may be necessary in some of the Company’s development programs.

 

Since March 2008, the Company has operated on working capital provided by La Jolla Cove Investors, Inc. (“LJCI”). As further described in Note 3 to these condensed consolidated financial statements, under the terms of the LJCI Agreement (as defined below), LJCI can convert a portion of the convertible debenture by simultaneously exercising a warrant at $1.09 per share. As of February 28, 2013, there are 5,451,629 shares remaining on the stock purchase warrant and a balance of $54,516 remaining on the convertible debenture. Should LJCI continue to exercise all of its remaining warrants, approximately $5.9 million of cash would be provided to the Company. The LJCI Agreement limits LJCI’s investment to an aggregate ownership that does not exceed 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company. The Company expects that LJCI will continue to exercise the warrants and convert the debenture through February 28, 2014, the date that the debenture is due and the warrants expire, subject to the limitations of the LCJI Agreement and the availability of authorized common stock of the Company.

 

These factors, among others, create an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that LJCI will continue to exercise its warrant to purchase the Company’s common stock, or that the Company will be able to successfully acquire the necessary capital to continue its on-going research efforts and bring its products to the commercial market. Management’s plans to acquire future funding include the potential sale of shares of the Company’s common and/or preferred stock, the sale of warrants, and continued sales of the Company’s proprietary media, immortalized cells and primary cells to the pharmaceutical industry. Additionally, the Company continues to pursue research projects, government grants and capital investment. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
