ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

Company Overview

 

We are an emerging pharmaceutical company focused on combining specialty pharmaceuticals and biotechnology to provide innovative medicines for patients and physicians. We are currently primarily focused on our specialty pharmaceutical products. We are currently developing four products in the allergy and respiratory markets, including a dry powder inhaler technology that we acquired from 3M Company. Our goal is to create low cost therapeutic alternatives to existing treatments. Consistent across all specialty pharmaceuticals product lines, we intend to pursue Section 505(b)(2) New Drug Application, or NDA, regulatory approval filings with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, whenever applicable in order to reduce the time needed to get to market and to save on costs, compared to Section 505(b)(1) NDA filings for new drug products. In May 2014, we filed a New Drug Application with the FDA under Section 505(b)(2) of the Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act for marketing approval of our epinephrine pre-filled single dose syringe (PFS) product, for the emergency treatment of allergic reactions (Type I) including anaphylaxis. On July 29, 2014, we announced that the FDA had accepted the NDA for review.

We also have a number of biotechnology product candidates and technologies including therapeutic vaccine and cancer product candidates and technologies for patients with unmet medical needs in the global cancer market. To achieve our goals and support our overall strategy, we will need to raise a substantial amount of funding and make substantial investments in equipment, new product development and working capital.

 

Our principal executive offices are located at 11682 El Camino Real, Suite 300, San Diego, CA 92130, and our telephone number is (858) 997-2400. Our website address is: www.adamispharmaceuticals.com. We have included our website address as a factual reference and do not intend it to be an active link to our website. The information that can be accessed through our website is not part of this prospectus, and investors should not rely on any such information in deciding whether to purchase our common stock.

 

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves risks. Prior to making a decision about investing in our common stock, you should consider carefully the risks together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including any risks described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in any supplements to this prospectus and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and in our subsequent filings with the SEC. Each of the referenced risks and uncertainties could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities. Additional risks not known to us or that we believe are immaterial may also adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition and the value of an investment in our securities.

 

DESCRIPTION OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

On November 10, 2010, we completed a private placement transaction with Eses Holdings (FZE), a foreign investor (“Eses”), pursuant to a common stock purchase agreement (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”) and a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Purchase Agreement provided for the sale of up to 2,352,941 shares of our common stock to Eses at a price of $4.25 per share, for up to $10.0 million of gross proceeds. An initial closing was held on November 10, 2010, pursuant to which we received $5.0 million in gross proceeds and issued 1,176,471 shares of common stock. At subsequent closings linked to the achievement of various milestones, the last of which occurred in February 2012, we received an additional $2.5 million and issued an additional 588,254 shares of common stock. On May 1, 2012, we exercised our option to terminate the Purchase Agreement by sending notice to Eses. A portion of the shares issued to Eses under the Purchase Agreement were previously sold by Eses. We are registering the resale of shares currently held by Eses pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

The Registration Rights Agreement grants piggyback registration rights to Eses, providing that if we file a registration statement (with customary exclusions such as registration statements relating to employee benefit plans or acquisition transactions) to register either the issuance of shares for our own account or the resale of securities for the account of others, we will include in the registration statement all of the shares purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement that Eses requests to be registered. We and Eses have agreed to indemnify the other and certain affiliates and advisors against certain liabilities related to any registration statement covering Eses’s shares.

 

On June 26, 2013, we completed the closing of a private placement financing transaction with a small number of accredited institutional investors. Pursuant to a Subscription Agreement, we issued Secured Convertible Promissory Notes and common stock purchase warrants (“Warrants”) and received gross proceeds of approximately $5,300,000, excluding transaction fees, costs and expenses. LifeTech Capital, a division of Aurora Capital LLC, acted as the placement agent for the private placement. We paid a fee of $190,000 to the placement agent, and we issued Warrants to LifeTech and certain affiliated persons, who are identified as selling stockholders in this prospectus, to purchase 49,674 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock at an original exercise price equal to $12.155 per share. On October 27, 2014, the Warrants were amended (i) to reduce the exercise price of the Warrants to $3.40, (ii) to provide that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to register the resale of the Warrant Shares, (iii) to provide that the Warrants must be exercised for cash as long as a registration statement is in effect covering the resale of the Warrant Shares, and (iv) to provide us the right to call the exercise of the Warrant under certain circumstances and only when the volume weighted average price of our common stock is at least 250% of the exercise price for the Warrants in effect for 10 out of any 20-consecutive trading day period. The Warrants have a term of five years.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus, and any prospectus supplement that we may file, contains forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “should”, “could” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Such statements may include, without limitation, statements relating to: our expectations for growth; estimates of future revenue; our sources and uses of cash; our liquidity needs; our ability to obtain sufficient funding to support our planned activities; our current or planned clinical trials or research and development activities; product development timelines; our future products; regulatory matters; anticipated dates for commencement of clinical trials; anticipated completion dates of clinical trials; anticipated dates for meetings with regulatory authorities and submissions to obtain required regulatory marketing approvals; anticipated dates for commercial introduction of products; anticipated expenses and expense levels; guidance on future periods; and other statements concerning our future operations and activities. Such forward-looking statements include those that express plans, anticipation, intent, contingency, goals, targets or future development and/or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and projections about future events, and they are subject to risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements.

 

These statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by such statements. Whether these future events will occur, and whether we will achieve our business objectives, are subject to numerous risks.  There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated by these forward-looking statements.  These important factors include those that we discuss under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014, filed with the SEC, as well as in our other reports filed from time to time with the SEC that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus.  You should read these factors and the other cautionary statements made in this prospectus and in the documents we incorporate by reference into this prospectus as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this prospectus or the documents we incorporate by reference into this prospectus.  Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to such factors and cautionary statements discussed throughout this prospectus or incorporated by reference herein. If one or more of these factors materialize, or if any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results, performance or achievements may vary materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

You should read this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement and the documents that we reference herein and therein and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement is accurate as of the date on the front cover of this prospectus or such prospectus supplement only. Because the risk factors referred to elsewhere in the prospectus could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We qualify all of the information presented in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, and particularly our forward-looking statements, by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We are registering shares of our common stock pursuant to registration rights granted to the selling stockholders. We will not receive any of the proceeds from any sale or other disposition of the common stock covered by this prospectus. All proceeds from the sale of the common stock will be paid directly to the selling stockholders. We will receive proceeds upon the cash exercise of the Warrants for which the underlying Warrant Shares are being registered hereunder. Assuming full cash exercise of the Warrants at the exercise price of $3.40 per underlying Warrant Share, and assuming no further adjustments to the exercise price, we would receive proceeds of approximately $168,892. We currently intend to use the cash proceeds from any Warrant exercise for working capital and general corporate purposes. We may also use a portion of the cash proceeds to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, technologies, product candidates, or other intellectual property, although we have no present commitments or agreements to do so. The amount and timing of our actual use of proceeds may vary significantly depending upon numerous factors, including the actual amount of proceeds we receive and the timing of when we receive such proceeds. In addition, the terms of the Warrants provide that they may be exercised on a cashless basis if at the time of exercise, the shares of common stock underlying the Warrant are not subject to a registration statement or there has been a failure to maintain the effectiveness of a registration covering such shares. We will not receive any cash proceeds as a result of Warrants that are exercised on a cashless basis pursuant to such terms of the Warrants. We cannot assure you that any Warrants will be exercised or that such exercises will be cash exercises rather than net cashless exercises.

 

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

 

We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the transactions described above in the section of this prospectus entitled “Description of Private Placement Transactions,” the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us or our affiliates within the past three years.

 

The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders. The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders. The fourth column lists the number of shares of common stock anticipated to be beneficially owned by the selling stockholders following the offering, assuming the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus. Because the exercise price of the Warrants may be adjusted, the number of shares that will actually be issued upon exercise of the Warrants may be more or less than the number of shares being offered by this prospectus.

 

When we refer to “selling stockholders” in this prospectus, we mean the selling stockholders listed in the table below, as well as their transferees, pledgees or donees or their successors. The selling stockholders may sell all, a portion or none of their shares at any time. The information regarding shares beneficially owned after the offering assumes the sale of all shares offered by the selling stockholders. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. See “Plan of Distribution.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the selling stockholders from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares of common stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of common stock.

 

The selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock held by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, each selling stockholder will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions, as applicable. The shares of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve block transactions, pursuant to one or more of the following methods:

 

  on the NASDAQ Capital Market or any securities exchange, market or trading facility or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;
  in the over-the-counter market;
  in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;
  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; 
  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
  an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
  privately negotiated transactions;
  settlement of short sales entered into after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;
  broker-dealers may agree with a selling security holder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
  through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
  a combination of any such methods of sale; and
  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus. In addition, the selling stockholders may transfer the shares of common stock by other means not described in this prospectus. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved).

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions or to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares registered hereby, from time to time, pursuant to this prospectus or any supplement or amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

To the extent required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the selling stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each selling stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. At the time a particular offering of the shares of common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

 

There can be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

The selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders and any other participating person. Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act). To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.

 

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees; provided, however, that the selling stockholders will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify each of the selling stockholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act in connection with the registration statements required by the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to Eses, and the selling stockholders may be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholders specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration statements, and we may be entitled to contribution.

 

Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

The validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Weintraub Tobin Chediak Coleman Grodin, Law Corporation, Sacramento, California.

INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

 

We have filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act. This prospectus is part of the registration statement but the registration statement includes and incorporates by reference additional information and exhibits. The Securities and Exchange Commission permits us to “incorporate by reference” the information contained in documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents rather than by including them in this prospectus. Information that is incorporated by reference is considered to be part of this prospectus and you should read it with the same care that you read this prospectus. Information that we file later with the Securities and Exchange Commission will automatically update and supersede the information that is either contained, or incorporated by reference, in this prospectus, and will be considered to be a part of this prospectus from the date those documents are filed. We have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and incorporate by reference in this prospectus:

 

  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014, filed on June 23, 2014, as the same may be amended;
  Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2014 and November 14, 2014, respectively;
  Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 20, 2014, August 26, 2014 and November 10, 2014;
  Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on October 9, 2014 for our annual meeting of shareholders to be held on November 6, 2014; and
  The description of our common stock contained in our Form 8-A filed on December 11, 2013.

We also incorporate by reference all additional documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the terms of Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are made after the initial filing date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part until the offering of the particular securities covered by a prospectus supplement or term sheet has been completed. We are not, however, incorporating, in each case, any documents or information that we are deemed to furnish and not file in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules.
