(c) Net Loss Per Common Share
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period reduced, where applicable, for unvested outstanding restricted shares.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per common share (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

(d) XIAFLEX Revenue Recognition
Up-front and milestone payments-
On March 22, 2011, the Company entered into a development, commercialization and supply agreement with Asahi Kasei Pharma Corporation (Asahi) (the Asahi agreement). See Note 5 for a summary of the contract terms. For accounting purposes, the Company has determined that the Asahi agreement includes multiple deliverables, including development and commercialization rights and manufacturing and product supply. In accordance with the accounting guidance on revenue recognition

Table of Contents
for multiple-element agreements, the supply element of the Asahi agreement meets the criteria for separation. Therefore, it is being treated as a single unit of accounting and, accordingly, the associated royalties on net sales of the product will be recognized as revenue when earned. All other deliverables under the contract are being accounted for as one unit of accounting since each of these elements do not have stand-alone value to Asahi. The up-front payment of $15,000,000 received from Asahi and all potential future milestone payments are considered to relate to this one combined unit of accounting and will be amortized to revenue on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the Asahi agreement, which is estimated to be 20 years. When future milestones are earned, the Company will record as revenue a cumulative catch-up adjustment on the date each milestone is earned for the period of time since contract commencement through the date the milestone.
The Company paid BioSpecifics Technologies Corp. (BioSpecifics) $750,000 for its share of the up-front payment received from Asahi. This amount is being amortized as cost of goods sold on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the Asahi agreement. As potential future milestone payments are received from Asahi, the required payments to BioSpecifics for their share of such milestone payments will be recognized as cost of goods sold, or as deferred costs, in proportion to the related milestone revenue or deferral, respectively.
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company announced the achievement of $37,500,000 regulatory milestones upon the first sale of XIAPEX in the United Kingdom (UK) and Germany by Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer), its European partner. As a result of accomplishing these milestones, the Company received payments from Pfizer aggregating approximately $33,591,000. This amount represents the $37,500,000 of milestones, net of certain development and regulatory costs that Pfizer was contractually allowed to recoup upon achievement of the UK milestone. These milestone payments are considered to be contingent consideration relating to the license, development and regulatory deliverables under the agreement with Pfizer which together are being accounted for as one unit of accounting. As such, this contingent consideration is recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the contract with a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded on the date each milestone is earned for the period of time since inception of the agreement through such milestone date. The company paid BioSpecifics approximately $3,188,000 as its share of the milestone payments and this amount has been recognized as cost of goods sold, or as deferred costs, in proportion to the related milestone revenue or deferral, respectively.

Product sales-
In March 2010, the Company began shipping XIAFLEX to its specialty distributor and specialty pharmacy customers. As XIAFLEX was new to the marketplace, the Company could not reasonably assess the flow of product through its distribution channels, market acceptance and potential product returns. As a result, the Company deferred the recognition of revenues, and related product costs, on XIAFLEX product shipments until the time the product was shipped to physicians for administration to patients. Based on historical experience gathered through the end of the first quarter of 2011, the Company began in the first quarter of 2011 to recognize revenue for XIAFLEX sales at the time of shipment of the product to its specialty distributor, specialty pharmacy and wholesale customers. As a result of this change in revenue recognition, net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 include a benefit of $1,804,000 (representing revenue previously deferred, net of allowances of $59,000) and the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes a benefit of $1,743,000, or $0.04 per share (representing the net revenue benefit partially offset by the related cost of goods sold).
During the second quarter of 2011, Pfizer began offering XIAPEX for sale in the United Kingdom, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway and Austria. Under the Pfizer agreement, the Company receives, on a quarterly basis consistent with Pfizers reporting calendar, a percentage of Pfizer XIAPEX net sales. These royalty payments are being recognized by the Company as revenue in payment for the product supplied to Pfizer. Since Pfizers reporting calendar is one month earlier than that of the Company, such royalty revenue is recognized on a one month lag basis.
(e) New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) that revises the authoritative guidance for revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that contain more than one unit of accounting. The guidance addresses how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be allocated among the separate units of accounting. For the Company, the guidance is effective for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified after December 31, 2010, although early adoption and/or retroactive application are permitted. Application of this new guidance to future outsourcing arrangements may advance the revenue recognition as compared to the previous authoritative guidance.
In April 2011, the FASB amended the fair value measurement guidance in order to achieve common measurement and disclosure requirements between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the International Financial Reporting Standards. These amendments are also intended to provide increased transparency around valuation inputs and investment categorization and, for the Company, are effective for 2012 reporting. The adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. Specifically, the new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income within the statement of changes in equity and requires an entity to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or alternatively in two, but consecutive, statements. For the Company, the new guidance is effective for 2012 reporting. The adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.
2. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
The authoritative literature for fair value measurements established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs in measuring fair value. These tiers are as follows: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as significant unobservable inputs (entity developed assumptions) in which little or no market data exists.

The securities classified as Level 3 are auction rate securities that are not actively traded. The Company determined the fair value of these securities based on a discounted cash flow model which incorporated a discount period, coupon rate, liquidity discount and coupon history. In determining the fair value, the Company considered the rating of the securities by investment rating agencies and whether or not the securities were backed by the United States government.

5. | COLLABORATION AND LICENSE AGREEMENT |
Under the Asahi agreement, the Company granted Asahi the exclusive right to develop and commercialize XIAFLEX for the treatment of Dupuytrens and Peyronies in Japan. Asahi also was granted the right of first negotiation to obtain exclusive rights to commercialize any new XIAFLEX indications in Japan during the term of the Asahi agreement. In addition to an up-front payment of $15,000,000 that the Company received in March 2011, Asahi may make up to $247,000,000 in potential payments, with $37,000,000 tied to development and regulatory milestones and $210,000,000 in milestones based on achievement of aggregate annual net sales thresholds. Further, the Asahi agreement provides for quarterly royalty payments based on a specified percentage of net sales of XIAFLEX in Japan. This royalty percentage increases upon the achievement of a specified threshold of aggregate annual net sales of XIAFLEX and decreases if a generic to XIAFLEX is marketed in Japan.
As provided in the Asahi agreement, Asahi is primarily responsible for the clinical development, regulatory and commercialization activities for the Japanese market and the Company will be reimbursed for all costs it may incur in connection with these activities. The Company retains the responsibility for development of XIAFLEX for the treatment of Peyronies outside the Japanese market, and will be responsible for all clinical and commercial manufacturing and supply of XIAFLEX for the Japanese market. Subject to each partys termination rights, the term of the Asahi agreement extends on a product-by-product basis from the date of the agreement until the last to occur of (i) the date on which the product is no longer covered by a valid claim of a patent, (ii) the 15th anniversary of the first commercial sale of the product, or (iii) a generic entry in the Japanese market.

8. | CONTINGENCIES |
The Company is party to various actions and claims arising in the normal course of business. The Company believes that amounts accrued for awards or assessments in connection with all such matters are adequate and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position or the manner in which the Company conducts its business. However, there exists a reasonable possibility of loss in excess of the amounts accrued, the amount of which cannot currently be estimated. While the Company does not believe that the amount of such excess loss could be material to Companys financial position, any such loss could have a material adverse effect on Companys results of operations or the manner in which the Company conducts its business in the period(s) during which the underlying matters are resolved.

Special Note Regarding Market and Clinical Data
We obtained the market data used throughout this Quarterly Report from our own research, surveys and/or studies conducted by third parties and industry or general publications. Industry publications and surveys generally state that they have obtained information from sources believed to be reliable, but do not guarantee the accuracy and completeness of such information. While we believe that each of these studies and publications is reliable, we have not independently verified such data. Similarly, we believe our internal research is reliable but it has not been verified by any independent sources.
This Quarterly Report may include discussion of certain clinical studies relating to our products and/or product candidates. These studies typically are part of a larger body of clinical data relating to such products or product candidates, and the discussion herein should be considered in the context of the larger body of data.
Overview
We are a specialty biopharmaceutical company with a focus on developing and marketing products to predominantly specialist audiences, such as urologists, endocrinologists, certain targeted primary care physicians, hand surgeons, subsets of orthopedic, general, and plastic surgeons who focus on the hand, and rheumatologists. We currently have approximately 540 employees, including a sales and marketing organization of over 300 people.
We currently market two products in the United States (U.S.):
XIAFLEX® (collagenase clostridium histolyticum) is a proprietary, injectable collagenase enzyme for the treatment of Dupuytrens contracture (Dupuytrens). XIAFLEX received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on February 2, 2010 for the treatment of adult Dupuytrens patients with a palpable cord. Dupuytrens is a condition that affects the connective tissue that lies beneath the skin in the palm. The disease is progressive in nature. Typically, nodules develop in the palm as collagen deposits accumulate. As the disease progresses, the collagen deposits form a cord that stretches from the palm of the hand to the base of the finger. Once this cord develops, the patients fingers contract and the function of the hand is impaired. Prior to approval of XIAFLEX, surgery was the only effective treatment. We launched XIAFLEX for the treatment of adult Dupuytrens patients with a palpable cord in the U.S. in March 2010, and we have partnered with Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer) for development and commercialization of XIAPEX® (European Union (EU) tradename for XIAFLEX) for Dupuytrens and Peyronies disease in Europe and certain Eurasian countries. Pfizer received marketing authorization by the European Commission on February 28, 2011 for the treatment of Dupuytrens in adult patients with a palpable cord and began sales in the EU in April 2011. We have partnered with Asahi Kasei Pharma Corporation for development and commercialization of XIAFLEX for Dupuytrens contracture and Peyronies disease in Japan. We are seeking a partner or partners for development and commercialization in the rest of the world.
Testim® testosterone gel is a proprietary, topical 1% testosterone once-a-day gel indicated for the treatment of hypogonadism. Hypogonadism is defined as reduced or absent secretion of testosterone which can lead to symptoms such as low energy, loss of libido, adverse changes in body composition, irritability and poor concentration. Testim is approved in the U.S., Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom (U.K.). Ferring International Center S.A. (Ferring) and Paladin Labs Inc. (Paladin) market Testim on our behalf in certain European countries and Canada, respectively.
Our current product pipeline includes:
Phase III:
| XIAFLEX for the treatment of Peyronies disease (Peyronies) |
17
Table of Contents
Phase II:
| XIAFLEX for the treatment of Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen Shoulder syndrome) |
In addition to the above, we have an exclusive option for the exclusive rights to pursue any additional indications for XIAFLEX (other than dermal formulations labeled for topical administration). We also have rights to develop other products for the treatment of pain, urologic disease and hormone replacement using our transmucosal film delivery system.
Recent Developments
On April 11, 2011, we announced that we had earned a $30 million regulatory milestone payment from our EU partner, Pfizer, following the first sale of XIAPEX in the UK, the first major EU market. In addition, on May 20, 2011, we also announced an additional $7.5 million regulatory milestone for the Pfizer launch of XIAPEX in Germany. We received $33.6 million in payment from Pfizer, representing the $37.5 million of milestones, net of certain development and regulatory costs that Pfizer was contractually allowed to recoup upon achievement of the UK milestone. XIAPEX is now available for sale in Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK. We are eligible to receive up to $22.5 million in additional regulatory milestone payments for this indication, which will be payable in $7.5 million increments, following Pfizers first sale of XIAPEX in each of the remaining major markets of the EU. In addition, we paid BioSpecifics approximately $3.2 million as its share of the $37.5 million milestone payments.
On June 30, 2011, we announced results from the three-year CORDLESS extension study in Dupuytrens contracture patients with a nominal recurrence rate of 34.8% for joints previously treated successfully with XIAFLEX. Additionally, 93% of joints that were successfully treated with XIAFLEX did not receive any medical or surgical intervention through three years of follow-up.

Results of Operations
Change in XIAFLEX Revenue Recognition
As discussed in Note 1 (d) to the Companys consolidated financial statements contained herein, in the first quarter of 2011 the Company began recognizing revenue for XIAFLEX sales at the time of shipment to its specialty distributor, specialty pharmacy and wholesale customers. In 2010, the Company deferred the recognition of revenues, and related product costs, on XIAFLEX product shipments until the time the product was shipped to physicians for administration to patients. As a result of this change in revenue recognition, net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 include a benefit of $1.8 million (representing revenue previously deferred, net of allowances of $0.1 million) and the net loss for six months ended June 30, 2011 includes a benefit of $1.7 million, or $0.04 per share (representing the net revenue benefit partially offset by the related cost of goods sold).

Testim revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased over the comparable 2010 period despite new competitors entering the market. The increase in Testim net U.S. revenues resulted primarily from growth in Testim demand resulting from increased prescriptions and increases in pricing, partially offset by an increase in revenue allowances. According to National Prescription Audit data from IMS Health, a pharmaceutical market research firm (IMS), Testim total prescriptions for the second quarter of 2011 grew 3% over the comparable period of 2010. We believe that Testim prescription growth in the 2011 period over the 2010 period was driven by physician and patient acceptance that Testim provides better patient outcomes and the continued focus of our sales force on the promotion of Testim to urologists, endocrinologists and select primary care physicians. Testim revenues in the second quarter of 2011 benefited from price increases having a cumulative impact of 6% over the comparable 2010 period. Testim international contract revenues shown in the above table represent the amortization of deferred up-front and milestone payments we previously received under our Testim out-licensing agreements.

Table of Contents
Total revenues for XIAFLEX in the second quarter of 2011 were $15.4 million compared to $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2010. Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 include $9.9 million of net U.S. product sales of XIAFLEX compared to the $2.0 million recorded in the second quarter of 2010 following the initial U.S. product sales of XIAFLEX for Dupuytrens, which was launched late in the first quarter of 2010. XIAFLEX international contract revenues shown in the above table relate to our out-licensing agreements for XIAFLEX and represent cumulative catch-up adjustments for milestone payments received during the period, the ongoing amortization of deferred up-front and milestone payment amounts and royalties received. The increase in XIAFLEX international contract revenue for the second quarter of 2011 over the comparable period in 2010 is principally due to a cumulative catch-up adjustments and incremental revenue amortization relating to milestone payments we received from Pfizer during the second quarter of 2011.
Revenue allowances as a percentage of gross U.S. revenues for the second quarter of 2011 compared to that of 2010 increased due to higher levels of managed care contract rebates and government health plan charge-backs, partially offset by a lower revenue allowance percentage on XIAFLEX gross U.S. revenues.
Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold was $14.4 million and $11.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Cost of goods sold reflects the cost of product sold, royalty obligations due to the Companys licensors, and the amortization of the deferred costs associated with the Pfizer Agreement. The increase in cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2011 over the comparable period in 2010 was principally attributable to the increase in Testim units sold. Gross margin on our net revenues was 78.2% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to 77.1% in the comparable 2010 period. The increase in the gross margin rate is principally due to the contribution of high margin XIAFLEX contract revenues and product sales, and year-over-year price increases of Testim in the U.S., partially offset by increased Testim managed care rebates.
Research and development expenses. Investments in research and development for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 were $13.3 million, compared to $11.1 million for 2010. The increase in expense results principally from the activities related to the phase III XIAFLEX clinical trials for Peyronies disease, partially offset by slightly smaller investment in the development of a larger scale XIAFLEX production process.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $43.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared with $41.2 million for the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to promotional and training activity in support of the launch of XIAFLEX for Dupuytrens in the U.S.
Interest income. Interest income relates primarily to interest earned on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.
Interest expense. Interest expense in 2011 relates primarily to the costs associated the Companys two year $30 million revolving credit line which was secured in August 2009.

The increase in Testim net U.S. revenues resulted primarily from growth in Testim demand resulting from increased prescriptions and increases in pricing, partially offset by an increase revenue allowances. According to National Prescription Audit data from IMS, Testim total prescriptions for the first six months of 2011 grew 6% over the comparable period of 2010. We believe that Testim prescription growth in the 2011 period over the 2010 period was driven by physician and patient acceptance that Testim provides better patient outcomes and the continued focus of our sales force on the promotion of Testim to urologists, endocrinologists and select primary care physicians.

Including the change in revenue recognition discussed above, total revenues for XIAFLEX for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $27.6 million compared to $4.4 million for the comparable period of 2010. Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 include $18.5 million of net U.S. product sales of XIAFLEX compared to the $2.2 million recorded for the first six months of 2010 following the initial U.S. product sales of XIAFLEX for Dupuytrens, which was launched late in the first quarter of 2010. XIAFLEX international contract revenues shown in the above table relate to our out-licensing agreements for XIAFLEX and represent cumulative catch-up adjustments for milestone payments received during the period, the ongoing amortization of deferred up-front and milestone payment amounts and royalties received. The increase in XIAFLEX international contract revenue for the first six months of 2011 over the comparable period of 2010 is principally due to cumulative catch-up adjustments and incremental revenue amortization relating to milestone payments we received from Pfizer during the second quarter of 2011.
Revenue allowances as a percentage of gross U.S. revenues for the first six months of 2011 compared to that of 2010 increased due to higher levels of managed care contract rebates and government health plan charge-backs, partially offset by a lower revenue allowance percentage on XIAFEX gross U.S. revenues.
Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold was $25.6 million and $21.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Cost of goods sold reflects the cost of product sold, royalty obligations due to the Companys licensors, and the amortization of the deferred costs associated with the Pfizer Agreement. The increase in cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2011 over the
21
Table of Contents
comparable period in 2010 was principally attributable to the increase in Testim units sold. Gross margin on our net revenues was 79.4% in the first six months of 2011 compared to 78.1% in the comparable 2010 period. The increase in the gross margin rate is principally due to the contribution of high margin XIAFLEX contract revenues and product sales, including the contribution from the impact of the change in revenue recognition, and year-over-year price increases of Testim in the U.S., partially offset by increased Testim managed care rebates. In addition, gross margin on XIAFLEX U.S. product sales reflect the benefit of past claims from our licensor of approximately $1.1 million in the first six months of 2011 compared to $0.2 million of such claims in the comparable 2010 period.
Research and development expenses. Research and development spending for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $29.1 million, compared to $19.6 million for 2010. The increase in expense results principally from the commencement of start-up activities related to the phase III XIAFLEX clinical trials for Peyronies disease and costs incurred to address inspection comments received from European regulators concerning our manufacturing plant.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $86.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared with $77.3 million for the year-ago comparable period. The increase was primarily due to the addition of the sales and reimbursement field force and infrastructure, and promotional and training activity in support of the launch of XIAFLEX for Dupuytrens in the U.S.
Interest income. Interest income relates primarily to interest earned on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.
Interest expense. Interest expense relates primarily to the costs associated the Companys two year $30 million revolving credit line which was secured in August 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had $151.8 million and $128.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We believe that our current financial resources and sources of liquidity will be adequate for the Company to fund our anticipated operations beyond reaching profitability based on our current plans and expectations. We may, however, elect to raise additional funds prior to this time in order to enhance our sales and marketing efforts for additional products we may acquire, commercialize any product candidates that receive regulatory approval, acquire or in-license approved products or product candidates or technologies for development and to maintain adequate cash reserves to minimize financial market fundraising risks. Insufficient funds may cause us to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our development, commercialization or expansion activities. Our future capital needs and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including:
| our ability to successfully increase sales in the U.S. of XIAFLEX for Dupuytrens; |
| third-party payor coverage and reimbursement for our products; |
| the cost of manufacturing, distributing, marketing and selling our products; |
| the scope, rate of progress and cost of our product development activities; |
| the costs of supplying and commercializing our products and product candidates; |
| the effect of competing technological and market developments; |
| the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights, including costs associated with the matter of Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and CPEX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. vs. Upsher-Smith Laboratories, Inc. filed on December 4, 2008 in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and the outcome thereof; |

| the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses and technologies, although we currently have no commitments or agreements relating to any of these types of transactions; and |
| entry into the marketplace of competitive products. |
If additional funds are required, we may raise such funds from time to time through public or private sales of equity or debt securities or from bank or other loans. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could materially adversely impact our growth plans and our financial condition or results of operations. Additional equity financing, if available, may be dilutive to the holders of our common stock and may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants that restrict our ability to operate our business.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Cash provided by operations was $25.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to cash used in operations of $16.4 million for the comparable 2010 period. Cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 resulted primarily from the $15.0 million up-front payment received from Asahi and the $33.6 million of net milestone payments received from Pfizer, offset by BioSpecifics share of these up-front and milestone payments and operating losses (net of stock compensation expenses and other non-cash charges). Cash used in operations for 2010 resulted primarily from operating losses (net of stock compensation expenses) and other non-cash charges, offset in part by approximately $13.7 million of net milestone receipts in the first six months of 2010.
Cash used in investing activities was $66.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to cash used of $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The cash impact of investing activities in 2011 relates primarily to purchases of short-term investments in marketable debt securities and investments in property and equipment. In 2010, the cash impact of investing activities relates primarily to our investments in property and equipment, net of the redemptions of long-term investments. Our investments in property and equipment relate primarily to improvements made to our Horsham biological manufacturing facility and our information technology infrastructure for the production of XIAFLEX.
Cash provided by financing activities was $2.1 million and $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities in both periods resulted primarily from cash receipts from stock option exercises and employee stock purchases, net of treasury shares acquired in satisfaction of tax withholding requirements on stock awards to certain officers and employees.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a) (4) of Regulation S-K.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
We are subject to market risks in the normal course of our business, including changes in interest rates and exchange rates. There have been no significant changes in our exposure to market risks since December 31, 2010. Refer to Item 7 A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for additional information.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their respective evaluations as of the end of the period covered by this Report, that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurances, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. |
As previously reported in Part I, Item 3 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, on February 15, 2011, we filed a complaint against BioSpecifics Technologies Corp. (BioSpecifics) alleging that BioSpecifics has breached the Amended and Restated Development and License Agreement, dated December 11, 2008, by and between BioSpecifics and the Company (the BioSpecifics Agreement) by its commencement of clinical trials for the use of injectable collagenase to treat canine lipomas without the prior knowledge and approval of the parties Joint Development Committee (JDC). We are seeking preliminary and permanent injunctions ordering BioSpecifics to, among other things, (a) suspend its canine lipoma clinical trial known as Chien-803 and (b) refrain from initiating any new clinical trials related to collagenase until such time as any such trial has been reviewed and approved by the parties JDC pursuant to the terms of the BioSpecifics Agreement. In addition, we are seeking a declaratory judgment as to the rights and responsibilities of the JDC under the BioSpecifics Agreement. The suit was filed in the Court of Common Pleas, Chester County, Pennsylvania. The court ordered that the papers filed with the court were to be deemed under seal and not available to the public until further order. On April 27, 2011, we filed a motion seeking to unseal the judicial record. On June 20, 2011, the court heard oral argument regarding the preliminary objections and the motion seeking to unseal the judicial record.
We are also party to various other actions and claims arising in the normal course of business. One example of such a claim is a complaint filed, on May 2, 2011, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Nassau County, Commercial Division by BioSpecifics against Recipharm AB, RecipharmCobra Holdings Limited (Recipharm entities collectively Cobra) and us claiming that we have breached an oral contract with BioSpecifics and interfered with a contract BioSpecifics has with Cobra. We believe that amounts accrued for awards or assessments in connection with all such matters are adequate and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
24
Table of Contents
our financial position or the manner in which we conduct our business. However, there exists a reasonable possibility of loss in excess of the amounts accrued, the amount of which cannot currently be estimated. While we do not believe that the amount of such excess loss could be material to our financial position, any such loss could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or the manner in which we conduct our business in the period(s) during which the underlying matters are resolved.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
In addition to the other information contained in this Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 in evaluating our business, financial position, future results and prospects. Although there have been no material changes to the risk factors described in such Annual Report on Form 10-K, the risks described therein are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks that we do not presently know or that we currently believe are immaterial could also materially and adversely affect our business, financial position, future results and prospects.
