NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Basis of Preparation The condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 1996 and the condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by the Company and have not been audited. Such financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in management's opinion, necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position at September 30, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the notes thereto included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year. The balance sheet as of December 31, 1995 has been prepared from the audited financial statements included in the previously mentioned Annual Report. Note 2. Net Loss Per Share Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Common equivalent shares (from unexercised stock options and warrants and convertible preferred stock) have been excluded from the computation as their effect is anti-dilutive. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements of a forward-looking nature that involve risks and uncertainties relating to future events or the future financial performance of the Company. Such statements are only predictions and the actual events or results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below as well as those discussed in other filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Overview Since its inception in 1986, the Company has been engaged in research and development activities (including conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials) and organizational efforts, including recruiting its scientific and management personnel, establishing laboratory facilities, engaging its Scientific Advisory Board and raising capital. The Company has not received any revenue from the sale of pharmaceutical products and does not expect to receive such revenues to a significant extent for at least several years, if at all. The Company has incurred operating losses since its inception. The Company expects to incur significant additional operating losses over the next several years and expects such losses to increase as the Company's research and development and clinical trial efforts expand. The Company's future business, financial condition and results of operations are dependent on the Company's ability to successfully develop, market and manufacture its pharmaceutical products for the treatment of immunological and infectious diseases and disorders. Inherent in this process are a number of factors that the Company must carefully manage in order to be successful. Some of these factors are: conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials of its compounds that demonstrate such compounds' safety and effectiveness; obtaining additional financing to support the Company's operations; achieving revenues or profitable operations; developing collaborative arrangements with corporate partners, academic institutions and consultants to support research and development efforts and to conduct such clinical trials; obtaining regulatory approval for such compounds; entering into agreements for product development, manufacturing and commercialization; developing the capacity to manufacture, market and sell its products either directly or with collaborative partners; competing effectively with other pharmaceutical and biotechnological products for human therapeutic applications; obtaining adequate reimbursement from third-party payors for its products; retaining and attracting key personnel; obtaining and/or maintaining product liability and clinical trial insurance; protecting its patents and proprietary rights; and avoiding 6 infringement claims by third parties. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to manage such factors successfully. The failure to manage such factors successfully could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Results of Operations (first nine months of 1996 compared to first nine months of 1995) Revenues increased 235.0% to $2,161,000 in the first nine months of 1996 from $645,000 in the first nine months of 1995. The increase was primarily due to the $1.5 million license fee paid to the Company by Torii Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. ("Torii") pursuant to a license agreement (see below). Research and development expenses increased 3.5% to $5,635,000 in the first nine months of 1996 from $5,442,000 in the first nine months of 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to the hiring of additional personnel. A decrease in costs associated with conducting additional clinical trials, preclinical studies and large-scale synthesis of BCX-34 (these costs fluctuate from period to period depending upon the stage of research or development) was offset by increased payments for outside contract research. General and administrative expenses increased 39.1% to $2,083,000 in the first nine months of 1996 from $1,498,000 in the first nine months of 1995. The increase is primarily the result of approximately $574,000 in consulting fees and withholding taxes incurred in connection with the license agreement with Torii. Interest expense decreased 29.5% to $79,000 in the first nine months of 1996 from $112,000 in the first nine months of 1995. The decrease is due to a decline in capitalized lease obligations, along with long-term debt, resulting in lesser interest expense. The Company obtained most of its leases in connection with the move to its new facilities in April 1992. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash expenditures have exceeded revenues since the Company's inception. Operations have principally been funded through public offerings of common stock, private placements of equity and debt securities, equipment lease financing, facility leases, collaborative and other research and development agreements (including a license and options for licenses), research grants and interest income. In addition, the Company has attempted to contain costs and reduce cash flow requirements by renting scientific equipment or facilities, contracting with third parties to conduct certain research and development and using consultants. The Company expects to incur additional expenses, resulting in significant losses, as it continues and expands its research and development activities and undertakes additional preclinical studies and clinical trials of compounds which have been or may be discovered. The Company also expects to incur substantial administrative, manufacturing and commercialization expenditures in the future as it seeks FDA approval for its compounds and establishes its manufacturing capability under Good Manufacturing Practices, and substantial expenses related to the filing, prosecution, maintenance, defense and enforcement of patent and other intellectual property claims. At September 30, 1996, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and securities held-to-maturity were $15.1 million, an increase of $3.7 million from such amount at December 31, 1995. The increase was primarily due to the private placement of common stock in March and May 1996 with proceeds of $9.5 million partially offset by net cash used by operating activities. Proceeds, after commissions, receivable from the Company's recent public offering were $18.8 million at September 30, 1996 and the funds were delivered on October 1, 1996. The Company received $500,000 in June 1993 as a license fee from Ciba-Geigy. The Company is required to refund up to $300,000 of the fee if sales of any resultant products are below specified levels. The Company has financed its equipment purchases primarily with lease lines of credit. The Company currently has a $500,000 line of credit with its bank to finance capital equipment. In January 1992, the Company entered into an operating lease for its current facilities which, based on an extension signed in December 1994, expires on March 31, 2000, with an option to lease for an additional three years at current market rates. The operating lease requires the Company to pay monthly rent (ranging from $10,241 and escalating annually to a minimum of $12,457 per 7 month in the final year), and a pro rata share of operating expenses and real estate taxes in excess of base year amounts. At December 31, 1995, the Company had long-term capital lease and operating lease obligations which provide for aggregate minimum payments of $531,747 in 1996, $502,077 in 1997 and $306,714 in 1998. The Company is required to expend $6.0 million over the three-year period ending December 31, 1997 (amended in October 1996 to extend the three-year period to coincide with the period in which the Company provides funding to The University of Alabama at Birmingham ("UAB") for work done in their laboratories) on its influenza neuraminidase project and $1.0 million over the three-year period ending July 18, 1998 on its complement project in order to maintain a worldwide licenses from UAB. These two agreements have 25-year terms and are terminable by the Company upon three months' notice. In May 1996, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Torii to develop, manufacture and commercialize BCX-34 and certain other PNP inhibitor compounds in Japan for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, T-cell cancers (including CTCL) and atopic dermatitis. Upon entering into the agreement, Torii paid the Company $1.5 million in license fees and made a $1.5 million equity investment in the Company, purchasing 76,608 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $19.58 per share. The agreement further provides for potential milestone payments of up to $19.0 million and royalties on future sales of licensed products in Japan. Torii is responsible for all development, regulatory and commercialization expenses in Japan. The agreement is subject to termination by Torii at any time and by the Company in certain circumstances. Pursuant to the agreement, Torii may negotiate a license with the Company to develop BCX-34 and certain other PNP inhibitor compounds for additional indications. At December 31, 1995, the Company had net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $25.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively, which will expire in 2005 through 2010. At September 30, 1996, the Company's net operating loss carryforward was approximately $31.2 million. Use of the net operating losses and research and development credits will be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986. The annual limitation is expected to result in the expiration of a portion of net operating losses and credits before utilization, which has been considered by the Company in its computations under Statement No. 109. Additional sales of the Company's equity securities may result in further annual limitations on the use of operating loss carryforwards and research and development credit carryforwards against taxable income in future years. The Company plans to finance its needs principally from its existing capital resources and interest thereon, from payments under collaborative and licensing agreements with corporate partners, through research grants, and to the extent available, through lease or loan financing and future public or private financings. The Company believes that its available funds (including proceeds receivable from the Company's recent secondary offering) will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations into 1999. However, this is a forward-looking statement, and no assurance can be given that there will be no change that would consume available resources significantly before such time. The Company's long-term capital requirements and the adequacy of its available funds will depend upon many factors, including results of research and development, results of product testing, relationships with strategic partners, changes in the focus and direction of the Company's research and development programs, competitive and technological advances and the FDA regulatory process. Additional funds, if any, may possibly be raised through financing arrangements or collaborative relationships and/or the issuance of preferred or common stock or convertible securities, on terms and prices significantly more favorable than those received by current stockholders, which could have the effect of diluting or adversely affecting the holdings or rights of existing stockholders of the Company. In addition, collaborative arrangements may require the Company to transfer certain material rights to such corporate partners. If adequate funds are not available, the Company will be required to delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of its research, drug discovery or development programs or attempt to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require the Company to relinquish some or all of its rights to certain of its intellectual property, product candidates or products. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all. Additional funding, whether through additional sales of securities or collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners or from other 8 sources, may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. Insufficient funds may require the Company to delay, scale-back or eliminate certain of its research and development programs or to license third parties to commercialize products or technologies that the Company would otherwise undertake itself. The Company believes that inflation has not had a material impact on its operations. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
