Exhibit 99.1
General and administrative expenses were $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $2.4 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to lower stock-based compensation expense.
Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 included costs of $0.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense related to options granted to employees and non-employee directors. In addition, the results for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 included an increase of $1.4 million and a decrease of $1.4 million, respectively, in the fair value of the company’s common stock warrant liability.
Biodel did not recognize any revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2012 or 2011.
On June 11, 2012, the company effected a one-for-four reverse split of its outstanding common stock and fixed on a post-split basis the number of authorized shares of its common stock at 25,000,000 (reduced from 100,000,000 authorized shares). As a result of the reverse stock split, each share of the company's common stock outstanding at the effective time was automatically changed into one-quarter of a share of common stock. Also as a result of the reverse stock split, the number of shares of common stock subject to outstanding options restricted stock units and warrants issued by the company and the number of shares reserved for future issuance under the company’s stock plans were reduced by a factor of four.
On June 27, 2012, the company completed a private placement of an aggregate of 4,250,020 shares of the company’s common stock, 3,605,607 shares of the company’s series B convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,749,469 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $2.66 per share. The company received net proceeds, after deducting placement agents’ fees and other transaction expenses, of approximately $17.2 million from the 2012 private placement.
At June 30, 2012, Biodel had cash and cash equivalents of $43.7 million and 14.0 million and 5.4 million shares of common stock and convertible preferred stock outstanding, respectively.
