Exhibit 12.1

 

COMPUTATION OF RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARAGES

 

Our earnings are inadequate to cover fixed charges. The following table sets forth the dollar amount of the coverage deficiency for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and each of the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012. We have not included a ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges because we do not have earnings. We have derived the deficiency of earnings to cover fixed charges from our historical financial statements. The following should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, and the other financial information included or incorporated by reference herein.
