NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
A)           Basis of Presentation and Going Concern
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Pathfinder Cell Therapy, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as “SyntheMed, Inc.” (“Pathfinder” or the “Company”), do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; but, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (which consist of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of such financial information.  Results of operations and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be achieved for full fiscal years. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
On September 2, 2011, the Company completed a business combination (the “Merger”) with Pathfinder, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company, in accordance with the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 22, 2010 (as subsequently amended, the “Merger Agreement”).   As a result of the Merger, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding membership interests of Pathfinder LLC in exchange for the issuance to the former members of Pathfinder, LLC of a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to approximately 80% of outstanding shares after issuance.  Upon the Merger, the board of directors and officers of the Company were comprised of individuals designated by Pathfinder, LLC and the business of Pathfinder, LLC became the primary business of the Company.  The Company changed its name to Pathfinder Cell Therapy, Inc. immediately prior to the Merger. Pathfinder, LLC, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary following the Merger, is deemed to be the “accounting acquirer,” and the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition of the Company by Pathfinder, LLC under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations.  Accordingly, the information reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the Merger is that of Pathfinder, LLC, which began operations on November 4, 2008.  
 
The Company is a development stage regenerative medicine company seeking to develop novel cell-based therapies for the treatment of a broad range of diseases and medical conditions characterized by organ-specific cell damage. Regarding the legacy SyntheMed business, the Company’s strategy includes continuing to seek a sale, licensing transaction or other strategic transaction for the assets of the business and maintaining the business on a limited basis without significant development or investment pending any such transaction.
  
The Company faces certain risks and uncertainties similar to those faced by other early stage regenerative medicine companies including its ability to obtain additional funding, the success and timetable of required clinical trials, its future profitability, uncertainty regarding development and commercialization of the Company’s product candidates, competition and technology change and government regulations, including the need for product approvals.
 
To date, Pathfinder, LLC has relied on the proceeds raised by the issuance of convertible debt and equity to fund its operating requirements. As of June 30, 2012, the Company does not anticipate having sufficient cash on hand or generating sufficient revenue from operations to meet the Company’s anticipated cash requirements based on its present plan of operations through June 30, 2013, without securing additional funds through the issuance of equity and/or debt.  No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or at all.  In the absence of an additional cash infusion, the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of the carrying amount of recorded assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The report of the independent auditor on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 contains an explanatory paragraph referring to a substantial doubt concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 B)         Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pathfinder, LLC. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions, on an ongoing basis. We evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation allowance, the useful lives of intangible assets, valuation of stock-based compensation and income taxes, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
             
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company deposits cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions and believes any amounts in excess of insurance limitations to be at minimal risk.  Cash and cash equivalents held in these accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to a maximum of $250,000 through December 31, 2013, and $100,000 thereafter.
 
Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets represent the intellectual property and other rights licensed to Pathfinder, LLC with respect to separate technologies under an agreement with each of the University of Glasgow and Massachusetts General Hospital (“MGH”). Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 15 years, which is based upon management’s timelines for the typical development, approval, and marketing and life cycle of pharmaceutical drug products.  
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for indicators of possible impairment by comparison of the carrying amounts to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by such assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Should an impairment exist, the impairment loss would be measured based on the excess carrying value of the asset over the asset’s fair value or discounted estimates of future cash flows.
 
Stock based compensation
 
The Company follows the FASB ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) in the financial statements based on their fair values. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount of expense recognized. This estimate is adjusted periodically based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the previous estimate. In addition, the realization of tax benefits in excess of amounts recognized for financial reporting purposes will be recognized in the cash flow statement as a financing activity rather than as an operating activity.
 
Income taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method described in FASB ASC 740-10 “Income Taxes” the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
 
8

 
 
Fair Value
 
The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximate fair value based on their short-term maturity. The carrying value of the long term payable approximates fair value, as the interest rate used to discount the payable still approximates the Company’s current borrowing rate.
 
Research and development
 
All research and development activities, including any preclinical and clinical studies and product development activities, are outsourced (see Note K).  Research and development costs, representing principally new product development and manufacturing development, are charged to expense as incurred.
 
Patent costs
 
Costs incurred in connection with acquiring patent rights and the protection of proprietary technologies are charged to expense as incurred.
 
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
The Company’s comprehensive loss is equal to its net loss for all periods presented, and, as a result, no statement of comprehensive loss has been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

D)            Note Receivable – SyntheMed, Inc.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, under a revolving credit and security agreement originally entered into in September 2010, Pathfinder, LLC loaned the Company (formerly SyntheMed, Inc.) $628,000 and then recorded a full valuation reserve of $651,000 (consisting of principal and accrued interest). As of June 30, 2011, the entire principal balance owed to Pathfinder, LLC of $1,083,000 was fully reserved due to SyntheMed’s poor financial condition. All amounts outstanding under the revolving credit and security agreement were subsequently forgiven in connection with and pursuant to the Merger.

E)            Notes Payable
 
[1]   Convertible Notes Payable:
 
Since September 2010 and prior to the Merger, Pathfinder, LLC had been funding its operations as well as the operations of the Company (SyntheMed, Inc.) with proceeds from investors, including Breisgau BioVentures SA, an owner of 52.5% of the outstanding membership interests of Pathfinder, LLC prior to the Merger (see Note H[1]), through the issuance of convertible notes payable.  The notes payable had an interest rate of 6% per annum, were due and payable on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of issuance or the closing of the Merger and were convertible, at the election of the payee, into equity securities of the Company for the subscription price thereof in an offering by the Company conducted in connection with the Merger, which is referred to herein as the “Capital Raise.”
 
At the initial closing of the Capital Raise, which occurred on September 2, 2011 immediately after the Merger, the payees elected to convert the entire outstanding principal into the Company’s common stock sold in the placement (see Note H[2]). At June 30, 2012, the Company has included an accrual of approximately $96,000 for unpaid accrued interest, and such amount is included in Accrued Expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.
    
During the six months ended June 2012, the Company borrowed from investors an aggregate amount of $1,215,000, evidenced by promissory notes bearing interest at 6% per annum.  Principal and interest are due and payable on the first anniversary of issuance.  At any time prior to completion or termination of the Capital Raise, the holder may elect to convert the principal amount of the promissory notes, and/or accrued interest thereon, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the subscription price in the Capital Raise.  
 
[2]   Insurance Notes Payable:
 
In March 2012, the Company entered into a short term financing agreement covering $24,400 in aggregate premiums for product liability insurance relating to the SyntheMed business.  The financed amount is payable in monthly installments each in the amount of $2,500 (including interest at 4.52% per annum) through December 2012.
 
In September 2011, the Company entered into two short term financing agreements for our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance premiums totaling $50,000 and $74,000 and payable in monthly installments including interest of $5,000 and $7,000, respectively. The monthly installments for both notes are due through July 2012 and carry an interest rate of 3.78% and 3.25% per annum, respectively.
 
[3]   Note Payable – Clubb Capital Limited:
 
In September 2011, the Company issued a note payable to Clubb Capital Limited in the principal amount of $244,000, representing the deferred portion of the commission to which Clubb Capital Limited was entitled in connection with the initial closing of the Capital Raise. The principal balance (together with accrued interest thereon at the rate of 6% per annum) became due and payable on demand at any time on or after December 30, 2011.
 
F)           Long-term payable
 
The Company has recorded a long term payable for its estimated licensing fee obligations under the MGH license agreement (See Note K[2]). The amounts recorded represent the projected future license fees payable based on the Company’s estimate of 2017 as the first year of commercial sale, discounted to the present value using the following assumptions: Net Present Value calculated as of the agreement’s effective date of April 13, 2009, using an estimated borrowing rate for the Company of 10%.  If first commercial sale is not achieved by 2017, any additional license fees incurred under the agreement will continue to be capitalized and amortized over the remaining period in the term. An adjustment was recorded in the opening balance at January 1, 2011 to properly state the estimated value of the Company’s long term payable related to the MGH license agreement by increasing long-term payable by approximately $125,000, intangible assets by $83,000 and accumulated deficit by $42,000.

G)            Net Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding at June 30, 2012 and excludes 37,717,000 common shares potentially issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants since their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
 
Basic and diluted net loss per common share for the historical financial statements was computed based on the exchange ratio of shares issued in the Merger.
       
H)            Capital Transaction
 
[1]   Merger transaction:
 
In connection with and pursuant to the Merger and at the date thereof, the Company issued an aggregate of 457,999,480 shares of common stock to the former members of Pathfinder, LLC in consideration for, among other things, 100% of the membership interests in Pathfinder, LLC. 
 
Because the former members of Pathfinder, LLC owned approximately 80% of the voting stock of the Company immediately after the transaction, Pathfinder, LLC is deemed to be the accounting “acquirer” and the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition by Pathfinder, LLC of the Company under the purchase method of accounting for business. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded as of the date of the Merger at their estimated fair values, based on the fair market value of the outstanding common stock and outstanding options and warrants of the Company (formerly SyntheMed, Inc.) immediately prior to the Merger:

The fair value of SyntheMed, Inc.’s common stock used in determining the purchase price was $0.05 per share, which was based on the price at which the common stock was sold in the initial closing of the Capital Raise immediately after the Merger. The fair value of SyntheMed, Inc.’s stock options and stock warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the merger closing date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company performed an impairment analysis for the goodwill generated by the 2011 Merger transaction using a discounted cash flow methodology, and determined that the entire carrying amount was impaired. Accordingly, an impairment charge of $8,127,000 was recorded at September 30, 2011.
 
Acquisition costs incurred by the Company related to the Merger were approximately $800,000 and were expensed as incurred.

 [2]   Private Placement: 
 
On September 2, 2011, immediately after the Merger, the Company completed the initial closing of the Capital Raise in which it sold an aggregate of 89,661,520 shares of common stock at a price of $0.05 per share, for gross proceeds of $4,483,076.  Of the proceeds, $1,375,500 was paid in cash, and the balance was paid by conversion of Pathfinder, LLC debt held by investors in Pathfinder, LLC (see Note E[1]) as contemplated by the Merger Agreement.  
 
Clubb Capital Limited, of which Mr. Joerg Gruber is Chairman, acted as placement agent for the Capital Raise and received a commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds, a portion of which was paid in cash and a portion of which was payable by a short-term note. (See Note E[3])  In addition, Clubb Capital Limited or its designees were granted warrants to purchase up to 6,276,306 shares of Pathfinder common stock (representing 7% of the number of shares sold in the closing), exercisable at $0.055 per share and expiring September 30, 2016.  The shares were issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D and/or Regulation S.
 
[3]   Other capital transactions related to the Merger:
 
Under the license agreement with MGH, Pathfinder, LLC was obligated in the event that it was acquired or substantially all of its assets were sold, to pay to MGH an amount equal to 3% of the sale price received.  The Merger qualified as an acquisition of Pathfinder, LLC for purposes of this provision.  Pursuant to an understanding agreed prior to the Merger, the principal member of Pathfinder, LLC funded the obligation to MGH by accepting a reduction in the number of shares to which it would otherwise was entitled in the Merger as a member of Pathfinder equal in amount to the number of shares owed to MGH and agreeing that those shares be issued instead to MGH.  The Company recognized a non-cash charge at the time of the Merger in the amount of $687,000, representing the fair market value of the shares so acquired by MGH.
 
[4]   Stock based compensation:
 
As a result of the Merger each option to purchase membership interests of Pathfinder, LLC outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was assumed by the Company and converted into an option to purchase Company common stock, the number of underlying shares and exercise price per share being adjusted to reflect the Merger exchange ratio. Additionally, in connection with and as contemplated by the Merger, the Company increased the number of shares authorized for issuance under its 2006 Stock Option Plan to 25 million.
 
At June 30, 2012, the Company has one stock-based compensation plan, the 2006 Stock Option Plan, under which the Company is authorized to issue incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to purchase up to an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of common stock. At June 30, 2012, there were 4,871,000 options available for grant under this plan.  The exercise price is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the time of the granting of an option. Options vest over a period not greater than five years, and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant.
 
There were no options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

K)            Commitments and Other Matters
 
[1]   University of Glasgow Agreement
 
The Company has entered into an agreement for a worldwide exclusive license for technology developed by the University of Glasgow. Under the terms of the license, the Company is obligated to pay a royalty ranging from 1.5 - 3% of all sales based on the technology licensed from the University of Glasgow, up to a cumulative total of $12,000,000. The agreement terminates when the last patent expires or fifteen years from the date of the first commercial sale of a product.
 
In 2009, the Company entered into a research agreement with the University of Glasgow, whereby the University was to conduct further research on behalf of the Company relating to the technology licensed by the Company from the University. The agreement was subsequently extended for two one-year terms through March 24, 2012.   In April 2012, the parties extended the research period for an additional twelve-month period at a cost of approximately GBP 432,000 (approximately $678,000 based on exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2012), payable by the Company over the course of the twelve months. Under these agreements, the Company recorded an expense for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2012 of $199,000 and $331,000, respectively, compared to $55,000 and $172,000 for the corresponding prior year periods.
 
[2]   MGH Agreement
 
The Company has entered into an agreement for a worldwide exclusive license for a family of patents covering related technology from the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). Under the license agreement, the Company is obligated to pay a royalty ranging from 10 - 20% of all net sales of the Company’s product sales relating to the MGH licensed technology, up to a maximum amount of $15,000,000, and additional royalties of 3% of all net sales based on the technology licensed from the University of Glasgow, up to a cumulative total of $15,000,000. The agreement terminates when the last issued patent expires or is abandoned.
 
[3]   Yissum Agreement
 
In December 2011, the Company amended the license agreement with Yissum Research Development Company of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (“Yissum”), for the polymer technology used in the SyntheMed business in exchange for a cash payment of $150,000 and the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to Yissum. The amended agreement modified certain rights of use to the technology, settled certain claims related to unpaid royalty obligations of the Company and established the Company’s rights under the new agreement to not be subject to payments of minimum royalties, as they were under the prior agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, effective December 1, 2011, the Company issued to the former members of Pathfinder, LLC an additional aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to protect against dilution associated with the 1,000,000 share issuance to Yissum described above.  
 
As a result of the above transactions, in December 2011, the Company recorded a charge of $350,000 equal to the fair value of the 5,000,000 shares issued to the former Pathfinder, LLC members and to Yissum based on the market price of the Company’s stock on December 1, 2011.  This charge was offset by the reversal of the Yissum Agreement liability as of December 1, 2011 which amounted to $438,000, for a net gain of $88,000.
 
[4]   Employment Agreement
 
At June 30, 2012, the Company had an employment agreement with one individual that is scheduled to expire in September 2012, subject to automatic renewal for one-year periods. Pursuant to this agreement, in case of early termination under certain circumstances, the Company’s commitment regarding cash severance benefits aggregates $27,000 at June 30, 2012.  Effective January 1, 2012, the Company’s annual salary obligation is $107,000 plus the applicable 2012 cost of living increase.
 
L)           Related Party Transactions
 
Two of Pathfinder, LLC’s founding members, Dr. Richard Franklin and Mr. Joerg Gruber, have been directors of the Company (formerly SyntheMed, Inc.)  since prior to the Merger.  Dr. Franklin, the Company’s CEO and President, was SyntheMed’s sole executive officer at the time of the Merger. The Company pays Dr. Franklin a monthly consulting fee of $15,000.  Mr. Gruber, the Company’s Chairman, is Chairman and a director of Clubb Capital Limited, the placement agent for the Capital Raise (see Note H[2]).
 
Between September 2010 and March 2011, Pathfinder, LLC borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $1,357,000 from Breisgau BioVentures SA, an owner of 52.5% of the outstanding membership interests of Pathfinder, LLC prior to the Merger.   Breisgau subsequently converted such principal amount into shares of the Company’s common stock in the Capital Raise. See Note E[1].
 
The Company’s core technology was originally derived from research conducted at the University of Glasgow.  Pathfinder relies on the University of Glasgow as well as third party laboratories for its research and development activities, all of which is funded by Pathfinder. Intellectual property resulting from activities conducted at the University of Glasgow is owned by the university and licensed to Pathfinder under the terms of a license agreement between the university and Pathfinder.  The university owns an equity interest in Pathfinder of 9.5% beneficial ownership percentage of the Company. Additionally, Dr. Paul Shiels led and Dr. Wayne Davies participated in the research conducted at the university and are co-inventors of the technology derived therefrom.  Dr. Shiels is affiliated with the university and Dr. Davies was affiliated with the university at the time of the research and has since retired from that position.  Dr. Shiels assists with the Company’s research and development program through the university and Dr. Davies provides scientific consulting services to the Company.  As of June 30, 2012, Dr. Shiels and Dr. Davies beneficially owned 5.7% and 3.8%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.
 
M)           Subsequent Events

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations set forth below under “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
 
General
 
We are a development stage regenerative medicine company seeking to develop novel cell-based therapies for the treatment of a broad range of diseases and medical conditions characterized by organ-specific cell damage.  Based on preclinical data obtained to date, we have identified diabetes, renal disease, myocardial infarction and peripheral vascular disease as potential indications for therapies based on our technology.  Other potential indications could include kidney transplantation, chronic heart disease, stroke, osteoarthritis and liver disease.
 
Our development activities with respect to cell-based therapies have been limited to laboratory and preclinical testing. Our development plan calls for conducting additional preclinical safety and efficacy studies with respect to indentified and other potential indications, with the goal of commencing a Phase I clinical study for a lead indication during 2014.
 
In addition to our cell therapy business which we acquired in the Merger, we also continue the business conducted by our company prior to the Merger, which we refer to as the “SyntheMed business.”  Through the SyntheMed business we have been selling REPEL-CV® Bioresorbable Adhesion Barrier domestically since obtaining US Food and Drug Administration clearance in March 2009 and internationally since obtaining CE Mark approval in August 2006.  In the United States and some foreign countries, REPEL-CV’s marketing approval is limited to the pediatric market, while the CE Mark approval, which covers the European Union (EU) and other countries, as well as other foreign approvals subsequently obtained, apply broadly to both the adult and pediatric market segments.
 
Our cell therapy business represents our principal operations and we intend to devote substantially all of our efforts and resources to the development and commercialization of our cell therapy technology. Regarding the legacy SyntheMed business, our strategy includes continuing to seek a sale, licensing transaction or other strategic transaction for the assets of the business and maintaining the business on a limited basis without significant development or investment pending any such transaction.
 
Merger with Pathfinder, LLC
 
On September 2, 2011, we completed a reverse merger, business combination with Pathfinder, LLC in accordance with the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 22, 2010, by and among SyntheMed, SYMD Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of SyntheMed (“Merger Sub”), and Pathfinder, LLC (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into Pathfinder, LLC, with Pathfinder, LLC continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of our company.  We refer to the transaction as the “Merger.”

As a result of the Merger and in accordance with the Merger Agreement, each outstanding membership interest of Pathfinder, LLC was converted into the right to receive shares of Pathfinder common stock based on an exchange ratio of four times the number of shares of Pathfinder common stock outstanding or deemed outstanding immediately prior to the Merger divided by the number of Pathfinder, LLC membership interests outstanding immediately prior to the Merger.  In addition, each option to purchase membership interests of Pathfinder, LLC outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was assumed by Pathfinder and converted into an option to purchase Pathfinder common stock, the number of underlying shares and exercise price per share being adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio.
 
Upon completion of the Merger, the Pathfinder, LLC members immediately prior to the Merger owned approximately 80% of the outstanding common stock of the Company and the Company's stockholders immediately prior to the Merger owned approximately 20% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, in each case without taking into account (i) any shares of common stock issuable pursuant to then outstanding options or warrants of the Company or options to purchase membership interests of Pathfinder, LLC or (ii) the Capital Raise (defined under “- Liquidity and Capital Resources”).  Effective December 1, 2011, we restructured the arrangement with Yissum relating to our Polymer Technology and in connection therewith issued shares of our common stock to Yissum. Pursuant to and as contemplated by the terms of the Merger Agreement, the former members of Pathfinder, LLC were issued additional shares of our common stock to protect against the dilution associated with the Yissum issuance.
 
Pathfinder, LLC was deemed to be the “accounting acquirer” in the Merger, and the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition of our company by Pathfinder, LLC under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.  Accordingly, the information reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and in “-Results of Operations” below for periods prior to the Merger is that of Pathfinder, LLC, which began operations on November 4, 2008.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
 The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures in a given reporting period. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation allowance, the useful lives of intangible assets, valuation of stock-based compensation and income taxes. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A more detailed discussion of the application of these and other accounting policies can be found in Note B to the Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
 
Results of Operations
 
The discussion of our results of operations set forth below reflects the results of operations of Pathfinder, LLC for periods ended on or prior to September 2, 2011, the date of the Merger, and the consolidated results of operations of the Company (formerly SyntheMed, Inc.) and Pathfinder, LLC for periods on or after such date.
 
 
18

 
 
Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $29,000 and $63,000, respectively, all of which is attributable to REPEL-CV product sales. There were no comparable amounts for the prior year, as the prior year does not include results of operations for the SyntheMed business and Pathfinder LLC has not generated any revenue since inception.
 
Cost of goods sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $14,000 and $26,000, respectively. There were no comparable amounts for the prior year. Cost of goods sold reflects raw material costs and the cost of processing and packaging REPEL-CV into saleable form.
  
We incurred research and development expenses of $399,000 and $687,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $440,000 and $783,000 for the corresponding prior year periods, a decrease of 9.3% or $41,000 for the three month period and a decrease of 12.2% or $96,000 for the six month period. The decrease for the three month period is primarily attributable to decreases in spending on pre-GMP services for cell development and production for use in pre-clinical animal models of $175,000 and decreased consulting fees of $11,000, offset by increased fees under the research agreement with the University of Glasgow of $74,000, increased legal fees of $37,000  and increased expenses incurred for the legacy SyntheMed business of $30,000. The decrease for the six month period is primarily attributable to decreases in spending on pre-GMP services for cell development and production for use in pre-clinical animal models of $335,000 and decreased consulting fees of $11,000, offset by increased fees under the research agreement with the University of Glasgow of $159,000 and increased expenses incurred for the legacy SyntheMed business of $101,000.
 
General and administrative expenses totaled $223,000 and $496,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $156,000 and  $298,000 for the corresponding prior year periods, an increase of 43.2% or $67,000 for the three month period and an increase of 66.4% or $198,000 for the six month period..  The increase for the three month period is primarily attributable to increased salary related expenses of $40,000, increased professional fees of $11,000, increased Board of Director expenses of $20,000 and insurance expense of $36,000, offset by decreased consulting fees of $20,000, office related expense of $14,000 and travel related expenses of $7,000. The increase for the six month period is primarily attributable to increased salary related expenses of $87,000, increased professional fees of $56,000, increased Board of Director expenses of $44,000 and insurance expense of $71,000, offset by decreased consulting fees of $20,000, office related expense of $11,000 and travel related expenses of $31,000.
 
We incurred sales and marketing expenses of $6,000 and $13,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. There were no comparable amounts for the prior year. The Company’s sales and marketing expenses are related to the sale of REPEL-CV.
 
Net interest expense was of similar amounts for all periods presented.
 
Other expenses included $358,000 and $651,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, related to the provisions for losses on notes and interest receivable (see Note D of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). There was no comparable amount for the current year period.
 
Our net loss was $634,000 and $1,191,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $974,000 and $1,763,000 for the comparable prior year periods, a decrease of 34.9% or $340,000 for the three month period and a decrease of 32.4% or $572,000 for the six month period. The decrease is primarily attributable to the factors mentioned above. We expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At June 30, 2012 we had cash of $96,000 and negative working capital of $1,885,000, compared to  cash of $196,000 and negative working capital of $710,000 at December 31, 2011.  
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,232,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $833,000 for the corresponding prior year period.  Net cash used in operating activities for the current year period was primarily comprised of a net loss of $1,191,000, combined with a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses totaling $183,000, offset by decreases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses totaling $131,000 and the impact of $17,000 in non-cash charges. Net cash used in operating activities for the prior year was comprised of a net loss of $1,763,000, increases in interest receivable and accounts receivable totaling $26,000, offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses of $14,000 and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses totaling $285,000 and the impact of $657,000 in non-cash charges, primarily for the provisions for losses on notes and interest receivable of $651,000.
 
Net cash used by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $628,000, which related to short-term loans by Pathfinder, LLC to SyntheMed under the credit and security agreement described below. There was no comparable amount for the current year period.
 
 
19

 
 
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1,132,000, compared to $1,785,000 for the prior year period.  The current year amount was comprised of $1,215,000 of proceeds from short term notes payable, offset by $83,000 in payments of insurance notes payable for the financing of our product liability insurance premiums and our directors’ and officers’ insurance premiums. The prior year amount was comprised entirely of proceeds from short term notes payable.
 
Recent Financings
 
Immediately following the Merger and as contemplated thereby, on September 2, 2011 we completed the initial closing of a private placement (the “Capital Raise”) in which we sold an aggregate of 89,661,520 shares of our common stock, representing approximately 13.5% of the shares of our common stock outstanding after issuance, at a price of $0.05 per share, for net proceeds of $4,146,000.  Of the proceeds, $1,375,000 was paid in cash, and the balance was paid by conversion of Pathfinder, LLC debt held by investors in Pathfinder, LLC, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The converted debt was evidenced by promissory notes issued by Pathfinder, LLC between September 2010 and July 2011 to fund its operating costs, including its loans to our company that were cancelled in connection with the Merger.  The notes bore interest at 6% per annum, were due and payable on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of issuance or the closing of the Merger and were convertible, at the election of the payee, into equity securities of our company for the subscription price thereof in an offering by our company conducted in connection with the Merger.  At June 30, 2012, we owed approximately $96,000 for unpaid accrued interest on the converted notes. Clubb Capital Limited, of which Mr. Joerg Gruber is Chairman, acted as placement agent for the financing and received a commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds, a portion of which was paid in cash and a portion of which was payable by a note bearing interest at 6% per annum, payable on demand after December 30, 2011.   In addition, Clubb Capital Limited or its designees were granted warrants to purchase up to 6,276,306 shares of our common stock (representing 7% of the number of shares sold in the placement), exercisable at $0.055 per share and expiring September 30, 2016.
 
Since February 2012, we have borrowed from investors an aggregate principal amount of $1,215,000. An additional $50,000 was borrowed in July 2012. The borrowings are evidenced by promissory notes bearing interest at 6% per annum.  Principal and interest are due and payable on the first anniversary of issuance.  At any time prior to completion or termination of the Capital Raise, the holders may elect to convert the principal amount of the promissory notes, and/or accrued interest thereon, into shares of our common stock in the Capital Raise at the subscription price thereof.
 
The cash balance as of June 30, 2012 and the subsequent borrowings of $50,000 in July 2012 are not sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months.  We will need to raise additional funds to support our planned operations.  We plan to raise up to an additional approximately $300,000 in the Capital Raise, which would result in total gross proceeds for the Capital Raise, including converted and convertible debt, to approximately $6 million.  Even if we are successful in doing so, of which there can be no assurance, we will nevertheless need to raise additional capital to fund our plan of operations.  During the next 12 months, we anticipate spending approximately $3 million on research and development and other activities, assuming we are successful in raising the necessary capital.
 
If we are unable to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our planned development programs and otherwise limit our operations.
  
Our principal contractual obligations, which include the obligations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Pathfinder, LLC, include (i) a commitment to fund approximately $678,000 in research and development activities through the University of Glasgow through March 2013, and (ii) cumulative license fees anticipated to aggregate $315,000 through 2017 under the license agreement with Massachusetts General Hospital.  If first commercial sale is not achieved by 2017, annual payments of $150,000 will be required thereafter until first commercial sale. In addition, at June 30, 2012, we had an employment agreement with one individual that is scheduled to expire in September 2012, subject to automatic renewal for one-year periods. Pursuant to this agreement, in case of early termination under certain circumstances, our commitment regarding cash severance benefits aggregates $27,000 at June 30, 2012.
 
Due to our lack of profitable operations and our need to continue to raise funds,  our independent registered public accounting firm has included in its report on our 2011 audited financial statements an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our CEO and CFO, who are our principal executive and principal financial officers, after evaluating  the effectiveness of our  "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(e); collectively, “Disclosure Controls”) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the  "Evaluation  Date") have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our Disclosure Controls were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC, and that material information relating to our company and any consolidated subsidiaries is made known to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being prepared to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
In connection  with the  evaluation referred to in the foregoing paragraph, we have identified no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
 
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, who are our principal executive and principal financial officers, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
