CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements reflecting assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions or beliefs about future events that are intended as “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  All statements included or incorporated by reference in this report, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. These statements appear in a number of places, including, but not limited to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” These statements represent our reasonable judgment of the future based on various factors and using numerous assumptions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results and financial position to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, and use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “may,” “should,” “plan,” “project” and other words of similar meaning. In particular, these include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the following:

 

projected operating or financial results, including anticipated cash flows used in operations;

 

expectations regarding capital expenditures, research and development expense and other payments;

 

our beliefs and assumptions relating to our liquidity position, including our ability to obtain additional financing;

 

our ability to obtain regulatory approvals for our pharmaceutical drugs and diagnostics; and

 

our future dependence on third party manufacturers or strategic partners to manufacture any of our pharmaceutical drugs and diagnostics that receive regulatory approval, and our ability to identify strategic partners and enter into license, co-development, collaboration or similar arrangements.

 

Any or all of our forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors including, among others:

 

the loss of key management personnel or sponsored research partners on whom we depend;

 

the progress and results of clinical trials for our product candidates;

 

our ability to navigate the regulatory approval process in the U.S. and other countries, and our success in obtaining required regulatory approvals for our product candidates;

 

commercial developments for products that compete with our product candidates;

 

the actual and perceived effectiveness of our product candidates, and how those product candidates compare to competitive products;

 

the strength of our intellectual property protection, and our success in avoiding infringing the intellectual property rights of others;

 

adverse developments in our research and development activities;

 

potential liability if our product candidates cause illness, injury or death, or adverse publicity from any such events;

 

our ability to operate our business efficiently, manage capital expenditures and costs (including general and administrative expenses) and obtain financing when required;

 

our expectations with respect to our acquisition activity.

 

In addition, there may be other factors that could cause our actual results to be materially different from the results referenced in the forward-looking statements, some of which are included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Many of these factors will be important in determining our actual future results. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Our actual future results may vary materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report of Form 10-Q are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2018
(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 Nature of Operations

 

These financial statements represent the consolidated financial statements of Rezolute, Inc. (“Rezolute”), and its wholly owned operating subsidiary AntriaBio Delaware, Inc. (“Antria Delaware”). Rezolute and Antria Delaware are collectively referred to herein as the “Company”. The Company is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company.

 

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X.

 

The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on October 15, 2018, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for the year ended June 30, 2018.

 

Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: estimated useful lives and impairment of depreciable assets, the fair value of share-based payments and warrants, fair value of derivative instruments, management’s assessment of going concern, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing and expected future operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company's operations may be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks associated with a clinical stage company, including the potential risk of business failure. See Note 3 regarding going concern matters.

 

6

 

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include salaries, benefits and other staff-related costs; consultants and outside costs; material manufacturing costs, clinical trial costs; and facilities and other costs. These costs relate to research and development costs without an allocation of general and administrative expenses.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. An entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

·Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;
·Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
·Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

  

The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 due to the relatively short maturity of the respective instruments.

 

The embedded derivative liability is recorded at an estimated fair value based on the present value of the probability of the weighted exercise of the payment obligation. The embedded derivative liability is a level 3 fair value measurement with the entire change in the balance recorded through earnings each reporting period. The significant inputs to the calculation are a term of one year and a weighted probability of 50%. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of financial instruments classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy:

 

Balance as of June 30, 2018   73,904 
Total unrealized gains (losses):     
Included in earnings   (18,904)
Balance as of September 30, 2018  $55,000 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 was effective for us starting on July 1, 2018, and early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

7

 

 

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, that clarifies the guidance in ASU No. 2016-1, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10) related to: Equity Securities without a Readily Determinable Fair Value- Discontinuation, Equity Securities without a Readily Determinable Fair Value- Adjustments, Forward Contracts and Purchased Options, Presentation Requirements for Certain Fair Value Option Liabilities, Fair Value Option Liabilities Denominated in a Foreign Currency and Transition Guidance for Equity Securities without a Readily Determinable Fair Value. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-9. Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The update includes guidance on what changes to share-based payment awards would require modification accounting and is effective for annual periods after December 15, 2017. We adopted the ASU 2017-9 on July 1, 2018. The adoption of the new provisions did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11. Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. ASU 2017-11 revises the guidance for instruments with down round features in Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, which is considered in determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. An entity still is required to determine whether instruments would be classified in equity under the guidance in Subtopic 815-40 in determining whether they qualify for that scope exception. If they do qualify, freestanding instruments with down round features are no longer classified as liabilities. ASU 2017-11 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim. ASU 2017-11 provides that upon adoption, an entity may apply this standard retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retaining earnings in the fiscal year and interim period adoption. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update requires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and also disclose key information about leasing arrangements. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. ASU 2016-02 requires modified retrospective adoption for all leases existing at, or entered after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. We will be required to adopt ASU 2016-02 starting on July 1, 2019. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Two new investors (“New Investors”) have expressed interest in investing in Rezolute and have now affirmed their intent to enter into exclusive diligence and negotiations regarding potential investments in Rezolute (“Transaction”).

 

In exchange for the receipt of a total of $1.5 million ("Exclusivity Amount"), the Company has entered into an exclusivity agreement ("Exclusivity") with the New Investors. Pursuant to the terms of the Exclusivity, until the earlier to occur of: (i) the execution of a definitive agreement regarding a Transaction; (ii) the New Investors terminating the Exclusivity; or (iii) December 21, 2018, the Company is ceasing any and all discussions and negotiations with all other third parties including the Potential Lead. In the event that both or either New Investor elects not to enter into a Transaction, then at such New Investors' sole election, it may either: (a) request that Rezolute refund the applicable Exclusivity Amount; or (b) elect to convert the applicable Exclusivity Amount into shares of Rezolute's Common Stock at a price per share to be agreed upon.

Note 3 Going Concern

 

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a net loss of $3,365,233 and net cash used in operations of $1,432,140 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, working deficit of $6,566,117 and stockholders’ deficit of $6,443,181 and an accumulated deficit of $97,548,917 at September 30, 2018.  In addition, the Company is in the clinical stage and has not yet generated any revenues. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company expects that its current cash resources as well as expected lack of operating cash flows will not be sufficient to sustain operations for a period greater than one year. The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on Management's plans, which include continuing to raise capital through equity or debt based financings. The Company is actively seeking additional equity funding from two investors, for which we are under an Exclusivity Agreement, as previously defined in subsequent events. There can be no assurances that such capital will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

During the period ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed sales of laboratory and manufacturing fixed assets for an amount of $187,139. This resulted in the Company recording a gain on sale of fixed assets of $22,852.

 

Note 5 Related Party Transactions

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company entered into no related party transactions. As of September 30, 2018 and 2017, there were no related party expenses recorded in accounts payable and accrued expense.

 

As discussed in Note 6, the Company issued a secured convertible promissory note on February 26, 2018 for gross proceeds of $500,000, which proceeds from this Note was received directly from a member of the Board of Directors. The Company also issued a second secured convertible promissory note in connection with the April 3, 2018 closing discussed in Note 6, with gross proceeds of $500,000 with this same member of the Board.

 

Note 6 Convertible Notes Payable

 

Historical Note

 

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had one historical convertible note outstanding with a balance of $10,000, which consists of notes which were not converted at the time of an equity transaction in 2017. As of September 30, 2018, this outstanding convertible note has matured, and payments were due. This convertible note which has not been repaid or converted continues to accrue interest at a rate of 8%.

 

Q3 2018 Notes

 

On February 26, 2018, the Company issued a secured convertible promissory note for gross proceeds of $500,000 to a related party. The note bears interest at a rate of 15% per annum and expires one year from issuance. The note contains an optional conversion feature in which if the Company raises $10 million then, at the investor’s option, the notes would convert into the financing at a 20% discount of the financing terms. With the promissory note, the investor also received warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock which expire five years from date of issuance. The exercise price for these warrants was set on of June 29, 2018 at $0.52 per share. The note also contains an embedded derivative liability for the acceleration of the maturity date as discussed in Note 2, which states a $25,000 penalty plus all unpaid interest to be accrued will be paid if note is paid prior to maturity. The initial measurement of the embedded derivative liability of $100,000 was reflected as a debt discount, is being amortized into interest expense over the life of the note.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Company issued two secured convertible promissory notes for gross proceeds of $700,000, of which one was to a related party for $500,000. The notes bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum and expire one year from issuance or 10 days after the closing of a financing of at least $10 million. The notes included a default interest rate provision, in which the stated interest rate will increase to 15% during an event of default. As of July 15, 2018, the stated interest rate has increased to 15% as the quarterly interest payment is past due. The notes contained an optional conversion feature in which if the Company raises $20 million then, at the investor’s option, the notes would convert into the financing at a 20% discount of the financing terms. This conversion feature was a contingent beneficial conversion feature that was not calculated and recorded until the contingent event has occurred. With the promissory note, the investors also received warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of common stock equal to one-half of the principal amount of the note. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and are exercisable for five years from date of issuance.

 

The above two notes and related warrants to purchase shares of stock were modified on April 3, 2018 with four changes. The first being the optional conversion was amended to an automatic conversion in the event of a qualified financing. Second, the maturity date on both were amended to January 31, 2019 or if the Company successfully offers and sells at least $15 million of its securities in a single equity financing (a “Qualified Financing”), then the outstanding principal and interest due shall automatically be converted at the closing of the Qualified Financing at a 20% discount to the terms set forth in such Qualified financing. Third, the warrants issued were modified to a number of shares set by the principal amount divided by $0.41, which was set on June 29, 2018. Finally, the exercise price was amended from $1.00 to 120% the average closing price of the 10 days preceding July 1, 2018, or $0.52 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

 

As the debt issued in January and February 2018 was modified to mirror the terms of the April 3, 2018 financing closing, the Company completed a modification or extinguishment evaluation. As the future cash flows of the instruments fair value changed an amount greater than 10% and debt extinguishment accounting was applied. Accordingly, the net book value of the original note payable, including the unamortized debt discount of $626,797 was removed and the fair value of the modified notes payable and warrants was recorded as $683,737 and $545,257, respectively. This resulted in the Company recording a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $602,193.

 

Q4 2018 Notes

 

On April 3, 2018 and April 11, 2018, the Company closed on a series of Senior Secured Promissory Notes with gross proceeds of $4.1 million, which had cash issuance costs of approximately $239,000. The notes also include warrants to purchase common stock with the number of shares and exercise price to be determined at the at the close of the next financing or based on the average trading prices prior to July 1, 2018. As the Company did not complete a financing event prior to July 1, 2018, the warrant conversion share price was set based on the average closing price of the 20 trading days preceding July 1, 2018, or $0.41. The exercise price was set at 120% of the average closing price of the 10 trading days preceding July 1, 2019, or $0.52. As discussed in Note 8, the warrants had a fair value of $134,000. The notes bear interest at 12% per annum, with a 15% default interest rate provision, and mature on January 31, 2019 or if the Company successfully offers and sells at least $15 million of its securities in a single equity financing, then the outstanding principal and interest due shall automatically be converted at the closing of the Qualified Financing at a 20% discount to the terms set forth in such Qualified Financing. The notes contained a mandatory conversion feature, in which the notes will convert into shares at the close of a qualified financing. This conversion feature is a contingent beneficial conversion feature that is not calculated and recorded until the contingent event has occurred. The notes include a default interest rate provision, in which the stated interest rate will increase to 15% during an event of default.

 

11

 

 

With the promissory notes issued in April 2018, each investor also received warrants to purchase an adjustable number of shares of common stock at an adjustable exercise price. The number of shares was to be set at the conversion price of the convertible notes or if no Qualified Financing occurs prior to July 1, 2018, the shares are set by the average closing stock price for the 20-day period preceding July 1, 2018. The exercise price is to be determined at 120% of the conversion price of the Convertible note if a financing occurs or 120% of the average closing stock price of the Company for 10 days prior to July 1, 2018. As no qualifying financing event had occurred prior to July 1, 2018, the number of warrants to purchase common stock was fixed as of June 30, 2018, based on the preceding 20-day average stock price, and 11,685,176 of warrants to purchase shares of common stock were issued. The exercise price of the shares was also fixed at $0.52, which is 120% of the 10-day closing price for the period preceding July 1, 2018.

 

The value of the notes and warrants is determined using their relative fair values. The fair value of the promissory notes and warrants was $7,186,883 and $177,893 respectively, resulting in relative fair values of $2,319,000 allocated to notes and $1,821,000 allocated to warrants. As of September 30, 2018, the outstanding balance of the secured convertible promissory notes was $4,840,000, with a current debt discount outstanding of approximately $1,531,405 and unamortized debt issuance costs of approximately $152,000.

 

As of September 30, 2018 the Company's convertible note outstanding balance is as follows:

 

Date of Issuance  Face Value of Notes Payable   Unamortized Debt Discount & Debt Issuance Costs   Book Value 
             
May 10, 2010   10,000    -    10,000 
                
February 26, 2018   500,000    62,780    437,220 
                
April 3, 2018   4,040,000    1,106,964    2,933,036 
                
April 3, 2018   700,000    16,263    683,737 
                
April 11, 2018   100,000    26,761    73,239 
                
    5,350,000    1,212,768    4,137,232 

 

Note 7 Shareholders’ Equity

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company did not enter into any additional placement agreements or financing agreements.

Note 8 Stock-Based Compensation and Warrants

 

Options

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company granted 1,125,000 options to employees and 1,702,767 options were forfeited. The Company has computed the fair value of all options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Options that require specific events before they begin to vest are valued at the grant date, however; have not been recorded as the specific event is not probable of occurring. In order to calculate the fair value of the options, certain assumptions are made regarding components of the model, including the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock, risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield and expected option life. Changes to the assumptions could cause significant adjustments to valuation. The Company estimated a volatility factor utilizing comparable published volatility of several peer companies. Due to the small number of option holders, the Company has estimated a forfeiture rate of zero as the value of each option holder is calculated individually. The Company estimates the expected term based on the average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant for treasury securities of similar maturity.

 

Rezolute has computed the fair value of all options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2018 using the following assumptions:

 

Expected volatility   84%
Risk free interest rate   2.83%
Expected term (years)   7.0 
Dividend yield   0%

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018: The Company issued warrants to purchase 15,624 shares of common stock at a price of $1.00 in connection with a consulting agreement.

 

Note 9 Income Taxes

 

Income tax expense during interim periods is based on applying an estimated annual effective income tax rate to year-to-date operating results, plus any significant unusual or infrequently occurring items which are recorded in the interim period. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating results for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in various jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is obtained, additional information becomes known or as the tax environment changes. In connection with the New Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, all gross deferred tax assets and liabilities have been remeasured at the 21% Federal statutory rate. There was no change to the net deferred tax asset recorded as the valuation allowance was also adjusted offsetting these changes during the year ended June 30, 2018.

 

13

 

 

In the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company did not record any income tax provision due to expected future losses and full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

 

Note 10 Commitments and Contingencies

 

Lease Commitments

 

In May 2014, the Company entered into a lease of approximately 27,000 square feet of office, laboratory and clean room space to be leased for seventy-two months. The lease requires monthly payments of $28,939 adjusted annually by approximately 3% plus triple net expenses monthly of $34,381 adjusted annually. The Company also made a security deposit of $750,000 which is held by the landlord, of which $562,500 has been returned to the Company and the remaining balance of $187,500 will be returned gradually over the next several years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

General

 

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.

 

Summary

 

Our stated strategy has been to build a metabolic focused biopharmaceutical company by in-licensing compelling compounds that we believe clearly target different diseases where there is an unmet need. In December 2017, we completed the latest phase of this strategy by in-licensing RZ358, a fully human monoclonal antibody that is currently in Phase 2 clinical development. RZ358 is being developed to treat congenital hyperinsulinism, a devastating ultra-orphan pediatric disease.

 

We believe that RZ358 complements our two other metabolic pipeline opportunities including: (i) our plasma kallikrein inhibitor, RZ402, which is a late stage preclinical program that offers the potential of an oral therapy to treat diabetic macular edema, the leading cause of blindness in adults in the US, and (ii) our super-long-acting basal insulin, AB101, which is currently in Phase 1 clinical development to assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of AB101 in patients with diabetes mellitus.

 

For fiscal and calendar year 2019, we have the following objectives to advance our development strategy: (i) initiate a Phase 2b clinical study for RZ358 in the US and Europe, (ii) complete the necessary toxicology studies for RZ402 to enable the filing of an IND and initiation of clinical studies, and (iii) complete the Phase 1 study for AB101 and explore partnership opportunities. In order to meet these objectives, we need to raise additional capital through an equity financing ("Financing").

 

Throughout calendar year 2018, we have met with a variety of large and mid-size health care funds ("Funds") to unveil the Rezolute story with RZ358 as our lead pipeline program. Many of these Funds have expressed interest in Rezolute and more than 10 Funds have conducted extensive due diligence on our programs and prospects involving many meetings and hundreds of hours of review and analysis.

 

While some Funds either declined to consider an investment in Rezolute or declined to invest following their diligence, by August 2018 various Funds concluded that they would be interested in investing in Rezolute as part of a syndicate on the condition that at least one Fund serve as the lead investor to prepare a term sheet and related documents. In the second half of August 2018, we received a term sheet from one potential investor (the "Lead Investor"); however, we did not believe that the terms were in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and continued evaluating alternatives.

 

Another Fund declined to serve as lead investor in Rezolute or to participate in a syndicate as part of the Financing; nonetheless, this Fund suggested that we consider a strategic business combination with one of their existing portfolio companies (the "Portfolio Company"). In the second half of September 2018, we engaged in a diligence process with the Portfolio Company culminating in our receipt of a term sheet proposal from the Portfolio Company for a strategic transaction. Following discussions between the companies on October 11, 2018, we concluded that a transaction with the Portfolio Company was not the best option for Rezolute and its shareholders.

 

15

 

 

Two new investors (“New Investors”) have since expressed interest in investing in Rezolute. and have now affirmed their desire to enter into exclusive diligence and negotiations regarding a potential investment in Rezolute ("Transaction").

 

In exchange for the receipt of a total of $1.5 million ("Exclusivity Amount"), the Company has entered into an exclusivity agreement ("Exclusivity") with the New Investors. Pursuant to the terms of the Exclusivity, until the earlier to occur of: (i) the execution of a definitive agreement regarding a Transaction; (ii) the New Investors terminating the Exclusivity; or (iii) December 21, 2018, the Company is ceasing any and all discussions and negotiations with all other third parties including the Potential Lead. In the event that both or either New Investor elects not to enter into a Transaction, then at such New Investors' sole election, it may either: (a) request that Rezolute refund the applicable Exclusivity Amount; or (b) elect to convert the applicable Exclusivity Amount into shares of Rezolute's Common Stock at a price per share to be agreed upon.

 

While no assurance can be given that: (i) we will execute a term sheet with the New Investors; (ii) we will be able to negotiate a purchase agreement that is satisfactory to all parties; (iii) we will be able to generate enough interest from other Funds to raise sufficient capital; (iv) that we will be able to raise additional bridge financing to continue operations pending the completion of the Transaction, we believe that this financing strategy is the best option for the Company and its shareholders. Our inability to either secure additional bridge funding or complete the Financing would materially and adversely impact our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to the estimated useful lives and impairment of depreciable assets, the fair value of share-based payments and warrants, fair value of derivative instruments, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities, income tax valuation allowances and going concern. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The methods, estimates, and judgments used by us in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our consolidated financial statements.

 

Results of Operations

 

For Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

 

Results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 (the “2019 quarter”) and the three months ended September 30, 2017 (the “2018 quarter”) reflected losses of $3,365,233 and $6,684,612, respectively.

 

Revenues

 

We are a clinical stage company and have not generated any revenues since inception.

 

Expenses

 

Research and development costs include salaries, benefits and other staff-related costs; consultants and outside costs; material manufacturing costs; and facilities and other costs. Research and development costs were approximately $930,000 in the 2019 quarter compared to $4,311,000 in the 2018 quarter. The decrease in the 2019 quarter was due to reduced manufacturing costs as the Company is no longer manufacturing product at its Colorado location. This included both expenses incurred during the manufacturing process, as well as $1,100,000 decrease in compensation and benefits, including salaries, benefits and stock compensation, with the decreased headcount. Additionally, the Company incurred $771,000 of license expense in the 2018 quarter compared to zero license expense in the 2019 quarter.

 

16

 

 

General and administrative costs were approximately $1,632,000 in the 2019 quarter compared to $2,406,000 in the 2018 quarter. The main decrease is due to a decrease of employee related expenses, including a stock compensation decrease of $460,402 and decrease of $87,115 of payroll expense from the 2018 quarter, offset partially by a $22,852 gain on sale of fixed assets recorded in the period ended September 30, 2018.

 

Impact of the U.S. Tax Reform

 

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. President signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) into law. Effective January 1, 2018, among other changes, the Act (a) reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate to 21 percent, provides for a deemed repatriation and taxation at reduced rates on historical earnings (a “transition tax”) of certain non-US subsidiaries owned by U.S. companies and establishes new mechanisms to tax such earnings going forward. The Act has wide ranging implications for the Company. However, the impact on the Company’s financial statements for the three September 30, 2018 was not significant, primarily because the Company has a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in the U.S., which results in there being no U.S. deferred tax assets or liabilities recorded on the balance sheet in which remeasurement was not significant at the new 21% rate. The Company will continue to analyze the effects of the Act on its financial statements and operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2018, we have approximately $401,000 in cash on hand and working deficit of approximately $6.57 million.

 

The Company received net proceeds of approximately $1.5 million subsequent to September 20, 2018 from the exclusivity agreement disclosed above.

 

As previously discussed, the Company is seeking additional funding of approximately $40 million to cover operating expenses, continue clinical trials of RZ358, bringing RZ402 through an IND filing, continuing clinical trials of AB101 and continuing research and development of our product pipeline through the calendar year end 2019. Due to the Company's low cash balance, in the interim, we may have to seek additional bridge financing to continue operations pending the completion of the Transaction disclosed above. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain bridge financing until the Financing closes and our inability to do so would materially and adversely impact our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Going Concern

 

The continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing and achieving a break even or profitable level of operations in our business. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current or future stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional financing through either private placements, and/or bank financing or other loans necessary to support our working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations and any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, we will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to us. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Finance Officer (our principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Based on that assessment under those criteria, our management has determined that, at September 30, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to material weaknesses in the system of internal control. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely manner.

 

The material weaknesses identified by management were that (1) we have not segregated duties as one employee can initiate and complete transactions in the general ledger system, (2) we have not implemented measures that would prevent employees from overriding the internal control system, (3) one employee was responsible for complex accounting issues without additional review from within the Company and (4) the Company did not have effective review controls over financial reporting over the financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulation. We do not believe that these control weaknesses resulted in deficient financial reporting as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer were aware of their responsibilities under the SEC reporting requirement and personally certified the financial reports.

 

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

 

During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f)) that occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
