2.Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. Therefore, the consolidated financial statements contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has suffered recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $202.4 million at March 31, 2016. The Company has funded its operations through asset sales, credit facilities and other borrowings and equity sales.

 

At March 31, 2016, the Company had $1.6 million in cash, and based upon the Company’s current and anticipated usage of cash resources, the Company will require additional financing in the form of funding from outside sources during the second or third quarter of 2016. The Company will evaluate the amount of cash needed, and the manner in which such cash will be raised, on an ongoing basis. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain adequate additional financing, which the Company has successfully secured since inception, including financing from equity sales and asset divestitures. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve projected levels of revenue and maintain access to sufficient working capital, and accordingly, there is substantial doubt as to whether the Company’s existing cash resources and working capital are sufficient to enable it to continue its operations for the next twelve months. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, it will be forced to license or liquidate its assets, significantly curtail or cease its operations and/or seek reorganization under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

 

The Company has a $7.5 million secured demand financing facility backed by its receivables and inventory with Faunus Group International, Inc. (“FGI”) that terminates on August 15, 2016 and may be extended at the Company’s option for additional one-year terms. However, FGI can cancel the facility at any time. At March 31, 2016, the Company had $4.1 million in borrowings outstanding under this facility with $3.4 million available, subject to the availability of eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances for collateral. However, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to borrow to the full limit of $7.5 million if FGI chooses not to finance a portion of its receivables or inventory.

 

On May 15, 2012, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (the “Shelf Registration”), which permits the Company to sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of various securities. However, the Company may not sell its securities in a primary offering pursuant to the Shelf Registration or any other registration statement on Form S-3 with a value exceeding one-third of its public float in any 12-month period (unless the Company’s public float rises to $75.0 million or more). On May 19, 2015, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC to replace the existing Shelf Registration (the “Replacement Shelf”), which was declared effective on November 17, 2015. The Replacement Shelf will permit the Company to sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of various securities, provided that the Company may not sell its securities in a primary offering pursuant to the Replacement Shelf or any other registration statement on Form S-3 with a value exceeding one-third of its public float in any 12-month period (unless the Company’s public float rises to $75.0 million or more).

 

On February 12, 2016, a special meeting of our stockholders was held, and at the meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve an amendment to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares from 24.1 million shares to 100.0 million shares. Further, on February 12, 2016, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) which increased the number of authorized shares from 24.1 million shares to 100.0 million shares, ninety nine million nine hundred thousand (99.9 million) of which are designated as common stock and one hundred thousand (0.1 million) of which are designated as preferred stock. The additional authorized shares and Replacement Shelf registration statements are intended to provide the Company with additional flexibility to access capital markets for general corporate purposes, subject to market conditions and its capital needs.

 

On April 1, 2016, the Company executed a Promissory Note (the “Kanis Note”) and entered into an amendment of existing loan agreements (the “Kanis Agreement”) with Kanis S.A. Pursuant to the terms of the Kanis Note, Kanis S.A. agreed to lend the Company $2.0 million at 8% per annum and a maturity date of September 30, 2017. Pursuant to the terms of the Kanis Agreement, the Company and Kanis S.A. agreed to amend prior loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $7.5 million (collectively, the “Loan Agreements”), such that: (i) Kanis S.A. shall have the right to convert the principal balance of the Loan Agreements and any accrued interest thereon into common stock of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price equal to the lower of the closing price of CDTI’s common stock on the date before the date of the Kanis Agreement or as of the date when Kanis S.A. exercises its conversion right; and (ii) the Company shall have the right to mandatorily convert the $7.5 million principal balance and any accrued interest thereon into its common stock upon maturity of the Loan Agreements or earlier upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event at a conversion price equal to the lower of the closing price of CDTI as of the date immediately before the date of the Kanis Agreement or at a 25% discount to the Liquidity Event price. A Liquidity Event is defined as a strategic investment in CDTI or a public stock offering by CDTI. The Company may prepay the principal and any interest due on the Loan Agreements at any time before their maturity date without penalty.

 

On April 11, 2016, the Company executed a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Director Note”) with Lon E. Bell, Ph.D., one of the Company’s Directors. Pursuant to the terms of the Director Note, Mr. Bell agreed to lend the Company $0.5 million at 8% per annum and a maturity date of September 30, 2017. Mr. Bell has the right to convert the principal balance of the Director Note and any accrued interest thereon into common stock of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price equal to the lower of the closing price of CDTI on the date before the date of the Director Note or as of the date when Mr. Bell exercises his conversion right. The Company shall have the right to mandatorily convert the principal balance of the Director Note and any accrued interest thereon into its common stock upon maturity at a conversion price equal to the lower of the closing price of CDTI on the date before the date of the Director Note or on the maturity date. The Company shall also have the right to mandatorily convert the principal amount of the Director Note plus accrued interest thereon into its common stock concurrently with the closing of a Liquidity Event at a conversion price equal to the lower of the closing price of CDTI as of the date immediately before the date of this Director Note or at a 25% discount to the Liquidity Event price. A Liquidity Event shall be defined as a strategic investment in CDTI or a public stock offering by CDTI.
