Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2019 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information, the instructions for Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, since they are interim statements, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements, but reflect all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods. The December 31, 2019 balance sheet information was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.

 

To date, the Company has generated minimal revenues, experienced negative operating cash flows and has incurred substantial operating losses from its activities. Management expects the Company to continue to generate substantial operating losses and to continue to fund its operations primarily through utilization of its current financial resources, future product sales, and through the issuance of debt or equity. Since March 2020, we have been evaluating the actual and potential business impacts related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  While the full impact of the pandemic continues to evolve, the financial markets have been subject to significant volatility that adversely impacts the Company's ability to enter into, modify, and negotiate favorable terms and conditions relative to equity and debt financing initiatives. The uncertain financial markets, potential disruptions in supply chains, mobility restraints, and changing priorities could also affect the Company's ability to enter into key agreements. The outbreak and government measures taken in response to the pandemic have also had a significant impact, both direct and indirect, on businesses and commerce, as worker shortages have occurred; supply chains have been disrupted; facilities and production have been suspended; and demand for certain goods and services, such as certain medical services and supplies, have spiked, while demand for other goods and services have fallen. The future progression of the outbreak and its effects on the Company's business and operations are uncertain. The Company and its third-party contract manufacturers, contract research organizations, and clinical sites may also face disruptions in procuring items that are essential to the Company's research and development activities, including, for example, medical and laboratory supplies, in each case, that are sourced from abroad or for which there are shortages because of ongoing efforts to address the outbreak. These disruptions have negatively impacted the Company's sales, its results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity in 2020.

 

The Company has financed its operations primarily through sales of equity-related securities. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $99,323, total current assets of $25,912 and total current liabilities of $10,515 resulting in working capital of $15,397. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,938 and $14,859 respectively. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $23,687. Under the terms of the loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB"), the Company must maintain unrestricted cash in accounts held at SVB of at least $10,000 (the "Liquidity Covenant"). The Company will need to raise additional capital or generate substantial revenue in order to ensure compliance with the Liquidity Covenant to support its development and commercialization efforts. If adequate funds are not available to the Company on a timely basis, or at all, it may breach the Liquidity Covenant, in which case, the Company would be required to immediately pledge to the bank and thereafter maintain in a separate account, unrestricted and unencumbered cash in an amount equal to the amount then outstanding under the loan agreement.

 

Management's plan, inclusive of its cost reduction plan (the "2020 Plan") in 2020, includes revenue generation through the sale of products and raising funds from outside investors. However, there is no assurance that such sale of products will occur or that outside funding will be available to the Company, will be obtained on favorable terms or will provide the Company with sufficient capital to meet its objectives.

 

Such conditions, as well as the terms of its Liquidity Covenant and the uncertainty of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, raise substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
