CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and certain information incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the potential benefits of the recent merger between BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and ANIP Acquisition Company (the “Merger”), the effect of price increases, our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions with respect to future operations and products and the timing or success of the introduction thereof, our anticipated financial position, operating results and growth prospects, and other statements that are not historical in nature, particularly those that utilize terminology such as “anticipates,” “will,” “expects,” “plans,” “potential,” “future,” “believes,” “intends,” “continue,” other words of similar meaning, derivations of such words, and the use of future dates. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, subject to change. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties, risks and other factors relating to our operations and business environment and other factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.

 

Uncertainties and risks may cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Uncertainties and risks include, but are not limited to, the risk that we may in the future face increased difficulty in importing raw materials and/or increased competition, for our Esterified Estrogen with Methyltestosterone Tablet product; competitive conditions for our other products may intensify; we may be required to seek the approval of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for our unapproved products or withdraw such products from the market; general business and economic conditions; our expectations regarding trends in markets for our current and planned products; our future cash flow and our ability to support operations; our ability to obtain additional financing as needed; the difficulty of developing pharmaceutical products, obtaining regulatory and other approvals and achieving market acceptance of such products; and the marketing success of our licensees or sublicensees.

 

These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with our other disclosures, including but not limited to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2014, including the factors described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors.” Other risks may be described from time to time in our filings made under the securities laws, including our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and our current reports on Form 8-K. There may be additional risks, uncertainties and factors that we do not currently view as material or that are not known. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are made only as of the date of this document. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

1.BUSINESS, PRESENTATION, AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Overview

 

ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and subsidiary, ANIP Acquisition Company (together, the “Company,” “we,” or “us”) is an integrated specialty pharmaceutical company developing, manufacturing, and marketing branded and generic prescription pharmaceuticals. Our targeted areas of product development currently include narcotics, oncolytics (anti-cancers), hormones and steroids, and complex formulations involving extended release and combination products. We have two pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities located in Baudette, Minnesota, which are capable of producing oral solid dose products, as well as liquids and topicals, narcotics, and potent products that must be manufactured in a fully-contained environment. Our strategy is to continue to use these manufacturing assets to develop, produce, and distribute niche generic pharmaceutical products.

 

On June 19, 2013, pursuant to a merger agreement dated as of April 12, 2013, ANIP Acquisition Company d/b/a ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("ANIP") became a wholly-owned subsidiary of BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“BioSante”) in an all-stock, tax-free reorganization (the "Merger"). The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, pursuant to which ANIP was considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. BioSante was renamed ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. We now operate under the leadership of the ANIP management team and our board of directors is comprised of two former BioSante directors and five former ANIP directors. As such, ANIP's historical results of operations replace BioSante's historical results of operations for all periods prior to the Merger. The results of operations of both companies are included in our consolidated financial statements for all periods after completion of the Merger.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013, has been derived from audited financial statements of that date. The interim condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to instructions, rules and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes previously distributed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, ANIP. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, estimates are used for, but not limited to, stock-based compensation, allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for chargebacks, returns and other allowances, allowance for inventory obsolescence, allowances for contingencies and litigation, fair value of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and valuation allowance, and the depreciable lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance for the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss ("NOL") carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance requires an entity to present in the financial statements an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for an NOL carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. If the NOL carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit will be presented in the financial statements as a liability and will not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance does not require any additional recurring disclosures and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

We have evaluated all issued and unadopted Accounting Standards Updates and believe the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

 

2.Revenue Recognition AND RELATED ALLOWANCES

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized for product sales and contract manufacturing product sales upon passing of risk and title to the customer, when estimates of the selling price and discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns, chargebacks, and other potential adjustments are reasonably determinable, collection is reasonably assured, and we have no further performance obligations. Contract manufacturing arrangements are typically less than two weeks in duration, and therefore the revenue is recognized upon completion of the aforementioned factors rather than using a proportional performance method of revenue recognition. The estimates for discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns, chargebacks, and other potential adjustments reduce gross revenues to net revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, and are presented as current liabilities or reductions in accounts receivable in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets (see “Accruals for Chargebacks, Returns, and Other Allowances”). Historically, we have not entered into revenue arrangements with multiple elements.

 

Occasionally, we engage in contract services, which include product development services, laboratory services, and royalties on net sales of certain contract manufactured products. For these services, revenue is recognized according to the terms of the agreement with the customer, which sometimes include substantive, measurable risk-based milestones, and when we have a contractual right to receive such payment, the contract price is fixed or determinable, the collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and we have no further performance obligations under the agreement.

2.Revenue Recognition AND RELATED ALLOWANCES - continued

 

Accruals for Chargebacks, Returns and Other Allowances

 

Our generic and branded product revenues are typically subject to agreements with customers allowing chargebacks, product returns, administrative fees, and other rebates and prompt payment discounts. We accrue for these items at the time of sale and continually monitor and re-evaluate the accruals as additional information becomes available. We adjust the accruals at the end of each reporting period, to reflect any such updates to the relevant facts and circumstances. Accruals are relieved upon receipt of payment from the customer or upon issuance of credit to the customer.

 

The following table summarizes activity in the balance sheet for accruals and allowances for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively:

 

(in thousands)  Accruals for Chargebacks, Returns and Other Allowances 
           Administrative   Prompt 
           Fees and Other   Payment 
   Chargebacks   Returns   Rebates   Discounts

Balance at March 31, 2014  $3,809   $849   $852   $309 

 

Credit Concentration

 

Our customers are primarily wholesale distributors, chain drug stores, group purchasing organizations, and pharmaceutical companies.

 

During the three month period ended March 31, 2014, three customers represented 23%, 18%, and 15% of net revenues. As of March 31, 2014, accounts receivable from these customers totaled $8.0 million. During the three month period ended March 31, 2013, three customers represented 26%, 17%, and 14% of net revenues.

3.BUSINESS COMBINATION

 

Summary

 

On June 19, 2013, BioSante acquired ANIP in an all-stock, tax-free reorganization. We are operating under the leadership of the ANIP management team and the board of directors is comprised of two former directors from BioSante and five former ANIP directors.

 

BioSante issued to ANIP stockholders shares of BioSante common stock such that the ANIP stockholders owned 57% of the combined company’s shares outstanding, and the former BioSante stockholders owned 43%. In addition, immediately prior to the Merger, BioSante distributed to its then current stockholders contingent value rights (“CVR”) providing payment rights arising from a future sale, transfer, license or similar transaction(s) involving BioSante’s LibiGel ® (female testosterone gel).

 

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition pursuant to which ANIP was considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. As such, ANIP's historical results of operations replace BioSante's historical results of operations for all periods prior to the Merger. BioSante, the accounting acquiree, was a publicly-traded pharmaceutical company focused on developing high value, medically-needed products. ANIP entered into the Merger to secure additional capital and gain access to capital market opportunities as a public company.

 

The results of operations of both companies are included in our consolidated financial statements for all periods after completion of the Merger. Former BioSante operations did not generate any revenue or expense during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Transaction Costs

 

In conjunction with the Merger, we incurred approximately $7.1 million in transaction costs, which were expensed in the periods in which they were incurred. These costs include:

 

Category  (in thousands) 
Legal fees  $1,227 
Accounting fees   122 
Consulting fees   119 
Monitoring and advisory fees   390 
Transaction bonuses   4,801 
Other   429 
Total transaction costs  $7,088 

 

Of the total expenses, $0.1 million was incurred and expensed in the three months ended March 31, 2013 as selling, general and administrative expense. No transaction-related expenses were incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

3.BUSINESS COMBINATION – continued

 

Purchase Consideration and Net Assets Acquired

 

The fair value of BioSante’s common stock used in determining the purchase price was $1.22 per share, the closing price on June 19, 2013, which resulted in a total purchase consideration of $29.8 million. The fair value of all additional consideration, including the vested BioSante stock options and CVRs, was immaterial. The following presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on June 19, 2013:

 

   (in thousands) 
Total purchase consideration  $29,795 
      
Assets acquired     
Cash and cash equivalents   18,198 
Restricted cash   2,260 
Teva license intangible asset   10,900 
Other tangible assets   79 
Deferred tax assets, net   - 
Goodwill   1,838 
Total assets   33,275 
Liabilities assumed     
Accrued severance   2,965 
Other liabilities   515 
Total liabilities   3,480 
Total net assets acquired  $29,795 

 

Any changes in the estimated fair values of the net assets recorded for this business combination upon the finalization of more detailed analyses of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of the transaction will change the allocation of the purchase price. Any subsequent changes to the purchase allocation during the measurement period that are material will be adjusted retrospectively.

 

The Teva license is related to a generic male testosterone gel product and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 11 years. Goodwill, which is not tax deductible since the transaction was structured as a tax-free exchange, is considered an indefinite-lived asset and relates primarily to intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. As a result of purchase accounting related to the Merger, we established deferred tax assets of $9.6 million, deferred tax liabilities of $3.9 million, and a valuation allowance of $5.7 million, netting to deferred tax assets of $0.

Our unvested restricted shares and certain of our outstanding warrants contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, and therefore are considered to be participating securities; the calculation of basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share excludes net income (but not net loss) attributable to the unvested restricted shares and to the participating warrants from the numerator and excludes the impact of those shares from the denominator. The numerator for earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 is calculated for basic and diluted earnings per share as follows:

 

(in thousands)  Three months ended March 31, 2014 
   Basic   Diluted 
Net income  $3,359   $3,359 
Net income allocated to warrants   (19)  $(19)
Net income allocated to restricted stock   (15)  $(15)
Net income allocated to common shares  $3,325   $3,325 

 

For periods of net income, and when the effects are not anti-dilutive, we calculate diluted earnings per share by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus the impact of all potential dilutive common shares, consisting primarily of common stock options, unvested restricted stock awards, and stock purchase warrants, using the treasury stock method.

 

The number of anti-dilutive shares, which have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings/(loss) per share, was 0.7 million and 4.9 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. Anti-dilutive shares consist of Class C Special stock, out-of-the-money common stock options, out-of-the-money warrants exercisable for common stock, and certain participating securities, if the effect of including both the income allocated to the participating security and the impact of the potential common shares would be anti-dilutive. Prior to the Merger (Note 3), anti-dilutive shares included equity-linked securities, convertible preferred stock, and stock purchase warrants exercisable for preferred stock.

4.Earnings/(Loss) per Share – continued

 

For periods prior to the Merger, earnings/(loss) per share cannot be calculated, as ANIP common shareholders did not receive consideration in the Merger. In a reverse merger, the weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per share for periods prior to the merger is the weighted average shares outstanding of the common shares of the accounting acquirer (in this case, ANIP) multiplied by the exchange ratio. In the Merger, only holders of ANIP’s Series D preferred stock received consideration. Because ANIP‘s common shareholders did not receive any consideration in the Merger, their exchange ratio is zero, creating a weighted average shares outstanding of zero for periods prior to the Merger.

 

As of March 31, 2014, we had 90 thousand options to purchase common stock, 50 thousand unvested restricted stock awards, and 555 thousand warrants to purchase common stock outstanding.

 

5.INVENTORIES

 

Inventories consist of the following as of:

 

(in thousands)  March 31,
2014
   December 31,
2013
 
Raw materials  $3,483   $1,480 
Packaging materials   732    766 
Work-in-progress   200    162 
Finished goods   709    1,152 
    5,124    3,560 
Reserve for excess/obsolete inventories   (34)   (42)
Inventories, net  $5,090   $3,518 

 

Vendor Concentration

 

We source the raw materials for our products, including active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”), from both domestic and international suppliers. Generally, only a single source of API is qualified for use in each product due to the costs and time required to validate a second source of supply. As a result, we are dependent upon our current vendors to supply reliably the API required for ongoing product manufacturing. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we purchased approximately 49% of our inventory from two suppliers. As of March 31, 2014, amounts payable to these suppliers was immaterial. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we purchased approximately 43% of our inventory from three suppliers.   

 

6.PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property, plant, and equipment consist of the following as of:

 

(in thousands)  March 31,
2014
   December 31,
2013
 
Land  $87   $87 
Buildings   3,682    3,682 
Machinery, furniture and equipment   4,017    3,736 
Construction in progress   66    229 
    7,852    7,734 
Less: accumulated depreciation   (3,334)   (3,197)
Property, Plant and Equipment, net  $4,518   $4,537 

 

Depreciation expense for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 totaled $137 thousand and $132 thousand, respectively. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, there was no material interest capitalized into construction in progress.

7.GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Goodwill

 

As a result of the Merger (Note 3), we recorded goodwill of $1.8 million in our one reporting unit. We assess the recoverability of the carrying value of goodwill as of October 31 of each year, and whenever events occur or circumstances changes that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of our reporting unit below its carrying value. There have been no events or changes in circumstances that would have reduced the fair value of our reporting unit below its carrying value from the most recent assessment on October 31, 2013, through March 31, 2014. No impairment losses were recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Acquisition of Abbreviated New Drug Applications

 

On December 26, 2013, we entered into an agreement to purchase (the “Teva Purchase Agreement”) Abbreviated New Drug Applications (“ANDAs”) to produce 31 generic drug products from Teva Pharmaceuticals (“Teva”) for $12.5 million in cash and a percentage of future gross profits from product sales. According to the terms of the Teva Purchase Agreement, Teva was required to provide soft copy materials and transfer ownership of the ANDAs to us within five business days of signing the Teva Purchase Agreement, and we were required to pay the first installment of $8.5 million upon receipt thereof. Teva provided the soft copy materials and transferred ownership of the ANDAs to us on January 2, 2014 and we paid the first installment of $8.5 million to Teva on January 2, 2014. Teva was also required to provide hard copy materials to us within 90 days of signing the Teva Purchase Agreement. Teva provided the hard copy materials on March 5, 2014 and we paid the $4.0 million balance on March 6, 2014.

 

The drug products include 20 solid-oral immediate release products, four extended release products and seven liquid products. We performed an assessment of the assets purchased and determined that this transaction was an asset purchase and not a business combination. The ANDAs are being amortized in full over their useful lives, averaging 10 years.

 

Definite-Lived Intangible Assets

 

The components of our definite-lived intangible assets are as follows:

 

(in thousands)  March 31, 2014   December 31, 2013    
   Gross Carrying

   $23,577   $(1,217)  $11,060   $(651)   

 

Our acquired ANDAs and Reglan® intangible assets consist of the exclusive rights, including all of the applicable technical data and other relevant information, to produce certain pharmaceutical products that we acquired from various companies, including those acquired pursuant to the Teva Purchase Agreement. The Teva license was acquired as part of the Merger (Note 3). Definite-lived intangible assets are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, net of amortization using the straight line method over the expected useful lives of the product rights. Amortization expense was $0.6 million and $13 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

7.GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS – continued

 

We test for impairment of definite-lived intangible assets when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. No such triggering events were identified during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and therefore no impairment loss was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.

 

Expected future amortization expense is as follows:

 

(in thousands)    
2014 (remainder of the year)  $1,682 
2015   2,243 
2016   2,243 
2017   2,243 
2018   2,243 
2019 and thereafter   11,706 
Total  $22,360 

 

8.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

All stock options and restricted stock are granted under the ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Amended and Restated 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”). As of March 31, 2014, 154 thousand shares of our common stock remained available for issuance under the 2008 Plan.

 

On April 1, 2014, the Board of Directors approved grants of options to purchase 59 thousand shares of common stock and 30 thousand shares of restricted stock to our officers and options to purchase 16 thousand shares of common stock to non-employee directors. While the stock options were granted with no restrictions, the restricted stock was granted subject to shareholder approval of an increase in the total restricted stock that can be granted under the 2008 Plan.

 

On July 12, 2013, our Board of Directors approved grants of stock options to employees under the 2008 Plan, subject to shareholder approval of an increase in the total shares available for issuance under the 2008 Plan. As of March 31, 2014, we had 325 thousand common stock options outstanding pending shareholder approval. Expense related to these stock options and the restricted stock granted on April 1, 2014 will begin to be recognized upon shareholder approval.

 

In 2013, the Board of Directors granted options to purchase 21 thousand shares of common stock and 50 thousand shares of restricted stock to non-officer directors under the 2008 Plan. Total expense related to these options and shares of restricted stock was $47 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Options to purchase 30 thousand shares of common stock were exercised and no options expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2014. No options were exercised and no options expired during the three months ended March 31, 2013. No restricted stock vested or was forfeited during the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.

 

9.STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

On March 10, 2014, we completed a follow-on public offering of 1.6 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $31.00 per share (the “March 2014 Offering”). We received gross proceeds of $50.0 million, or net proceeds of $46.7 million after deducting costs of $3.3 million, including the underwriters’ fees and commissions, as well as expenses directly related to the March 2014 Offering. The number of shares sold in the March 2014 Offering includes the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase an additional 0.2 million shares of common stock.

9.STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY – continued

 

In January 2014, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 20 thousand shares of common stock were exercised at $9.00 per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 112 thousand shares of common stock expired unexercised.

 

10.INCOME TAXES

 

We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted. The measurement of a deferred tax asset is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Based upon historical losses and uncertainty of future taxable income, we have fully reserved for all our deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. For interim periods, we recognize an income tax provision/(benefit) based on our estimated annual effective tax rate expected for the entire year. We calculate income tax benefits related to stock-based compensation arrangements using the with and without approach.

 

We use a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, as well as guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties and financial statement reporting disclosures. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. We have not identified any uncertain income tax positions that could have a material impact on the financial statements. We are subject to taxation in various jurisdictions and remain subject to examination by taxing jurisdictions for the years 1998 and all subsequent periods due to the availability of NOL carryforwards.

 

We recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax exposures as a component of income tax expense. We did not have any amounts accrued relating to interest and penalties as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 4.6% of net income reported in the period, calculated based on the estimated annual effective rate anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2014. The effective tax rate for the period was primarily impacted by the use of the NOL carryforwards. The utilization of these NOL carryforwards will be limited in future years as prescribed by Section 382 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. For the comparable three month period ended March 31, 2013, we did not have a tax provision due to the projected loss for the year, accumulated losses, which resulted in NOL carryforwards, and a full valuation allowance.

 

11.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Operating Leases

 

We lease equipment under operating leases that expire in May 2017. We also lease office space under operating leases that expire beginning in February 2016 through September 2018. Future minimum lease payments due under these leases total $261 thousand as of March 31, 2014.

 

Rent expense for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 totaled $17 thousand and $5 thousand, respectively.

Government Regulation

 

Our products and facilities are subject to regulation by a number of federal and state governmental agencies. The Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), in particular, maintains oversight of the formulation, manufacture, distribution, packaging and labeling of all of our products. The Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”) maintains oversight over our products that are controlled substances.

 

Unapproved Products

 

Two of our products, Esterified Estrogen with Methyltestosterone tablets (“EEMT”) and Opium Tincture, are marketed without approved New Drug Applications (“NDAs”) or ANDAs. In March 2014, we formally requested a pre-IND meeting with the FDA to discuss applying for an NDA for our Opium Tincture product. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, net revenues for these products totaled $6.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

 

The FDA’s policy with respect to the continued marketing of unapproved products is stated in the FDA’s September 2011 compliance policy guide, Marketed New Drugs without Approved NDAs or ANDAs. Under this policy, the FDA has stated that it will follow a risk-based approach with regard to enforcement against such unapproved products. The FDA evaluates whether to initiate enforcement action on a case-by-case basis, but gives higher priority to enforcement action against products in certain categories, such as those marketed as unapproved drugs with potential safety risks or that lack evidence of effectiveness. We believe that, so long as we comply with applicable manufacturing and labeling standards, the FDA will not take action against us under the current enforcement policy. There can be no assurance, however, that the FDA will continue this policy or not take a contrary position with any individual product or group of products. If the FDA were to take a contrary position, we may be required to seek FDA approval for these products or withdraw such products from the market. If we decide to withdraw the products from the market, our net revenues for generic pharmaceutical products would decline materially, and if we decide to seek FDA approval, we would face increased expenses and might need to suspend sales of the products until such approval was obtained, and there are no assurances that we would receive such approval.

 

In addition, one group of products that we manufacture on behalf of a contract customer is marketed by that customer without an FDA-approved NDA. If the FDA took enforcement action against such customer, the customer may be required to seek FDA approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market. Our contract manufacturing revenues for these unapproved products for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

 

We receive royalties on the net sales of a group of contract-manufactured products, which are marketed by the contract customer without an FDA-approved NDA. If the FDA took enforcement action against such customer, the customer may be required to seek FDA approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market. Our royalties on the net sales of these unapproved products for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0.1 million.

 

In October 2012, we received a telephone call requesting a meeting with the FDA representatives from the Minneapolis district of the FDA to discuss continued manufacturing and distribution of the Opium 10mg/mL Solution 118mL product (“Opium Tincture”), which is a non-NDA Product. That meeting was held on October 25, 2012 by conference telephone call and included FDA representatives from the Office of Compliance at the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. Our counsel sent a letter to the FDA on November 9, 2012 in support of our position. On April 2, 2014, we received communication from the FDA confirming that the inspection was closed.

Shareholder Class Action and Derivative Lawsuits

 

On February 3, 2012, a purported class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois under the caption Thomas Lauria, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated v. BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Stephen M. Simes, naming BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and our former President and Chief Executive Officer, Stephen M. Simes, as defendants. The complaint alleges that certain of our disclosures relating to the efficacy of LibiGel® and its commercial potential were false and/or misleading and that such false and/or misleading statements had the effect of artificially inflating the price of our securities resulting in violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act.

 

Although a substantially similar complaint was filed in the same court on February 21, 2012, such complaint was voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff in April 2012. The plaintiff sought to represent a class of persons who purchased our securities between February 12, 2010 and December 15, 2011, and sought unspecified compensatory damages, equitable and/or injunctive relief, and reasonable costs, expert fees and attorneys’ fees on behalf of such purchasers. On November 6, 2012, the plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint. On December 28, 2012, we and Mr. Simes filed motions to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On September 11, 2013, the Illinois district court judge granted defendants’ motions to dismiss, without prejudice, and gave plaintiffs 28 days to file an amended complaint. The plaintiffs did not file an amended complaint and the matter has been concluded.

 

On May 7, 2012, Jerome W. Weinstein, a purported stockholder of BioSante, filed a shareholder derivative action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois under the caption Weinstein v. BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al., naming our directors as defendants and BioSante as a nominal defendant. A substantially similar complaint was filed in the same court on May 22, 2012 and another substantially similar complaint was filed in the Circuit Court for Cook County, Illinois, County Department, Chancery Division, on June 27, 2012. The suits generally related to the same events that are the subject of the class action litigation described above. The complaints allege breaches of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement and unjust enrichment as causes of action occurring from at least February 2010 through December 2011. The complaints seek unspecified damages, punitive damages, costs and disbursements, and unspecified reforms and improvements in our corporate governance and internal control procedures.

 

On September 24, 2012, the United States District Court consolidated the two shareholder derivative cases before it and on November 20, 2012, the plaintiffs filed their consolidated amended complaint. On January 11, 2013, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On September 11, 2013, the Illinois district court judge granted defendants’ motions to dismiss, without prejudice, and gave plaintiffs 28 days to file an amended complaint. The plaintiffs did not file an amended complaint and the district court matter has been concluded.

 

On November 27, 2012, the plaintiff in the shareholder derivative action pending in Illinois state court filed an amended complaint. On January 18, 2013, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On July 1, 2013, the Illinois state court judge granted defendants’ motions to dismiss, without prejudice, and gave plaintiffs until July 31, 2013 to file an amended complaint. On September 9, 2013, the Illinois state court judge granted defendants’ motion to dismiss, with prejudice. On October 9, 2013, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to Illinois state appellate court. We believe the state court complaint is without merit and will continue to defend the action vigorously.

 

We are unable to predict the outcome of the remaining lawsuit and the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with its resolution or any potential effect the lawsuit may have on our operations. Depending on the outcome or resolution of the remaining lawsuit, it could have a material effect on our operations, including our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. No amounts have been accrued related to this legal action as of March 31, 2014.

Louisiana Medicaid Lawsuit

 

On September 11, 2013, the Attorney General of the State of Louisiana filed a lawsuit in Louisiana state court against numerous pharmaceutical companies, including us, under various state laws, alleging that each defendant caused the state’s Medicaid agency to provide reimbursement for drug products that allegedly were not approved by the FDA and therefore allegedly not reimbursable under the federal Medicaid program. The lawsuit relates to three cough and cold prescription products manufactured and sold by our former Gulfport, Mississippi operation, which was sold in September 2010. Through its lawsuit, the state seeks unspecified damages, statutory fines, penalties, attorneys’ fees and costs. On October 15, 2013, the defendants removed the lawsuit to the U.S. District Court. On November 14, 2013, the state filed a motion to remand the lawsuit to the Louisiana state court. While we cannot predict the outcome of the lawsuit at this time, it could be subject to material damages, penalties and fines. We intend to vigorously defend against all claims in the lawsuit.

 

Other Commitments and Contingencies

 

All manufacturers of the drug Reglan® and its generic equivalent metoclopramide, including us, are facing allegations from plaintiffs in various states claiming bodily injuries as a result of ingestion of metoclopramide or its brand name Reglan® prior to the FDA's February 2009 Black Box warning requirement. We have been named and served in 92 separate complaints, including three in Pennsylvania, nine in New Jersey, and 80 in California, covering 2,944 plaintiffs in total. In August 2012, we were dismissed with prejudice from all New Jersey cases. We consider our exposure to this litigation to be limited due to several factors: (1) the only generic metoclopramide manufactured by us prior to the implementation of the FDA's warning requirement was an oral solution introduced after May 28, 2008; (2) our market share for the oral solution was a very small portion of the overall metoclopramide market; and (3) once we received a request for change of labeling from the FDA, we submitted our proposed changes within 30 days, and such changes were subsequently approved by the FDA. At the present time, we are unable to assess the likely outcome of the remaining cases. Our insurance company has assumed the defense of this matter. In addition, our insurance company renewed our product liability insurance on September 1, 2012 and 2013 with absolute exclusions for claims related to Reglan® and metoclopramide. We are unable to predict the outcome of these matters and the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with their resolution or any potential effect the legal action may have on our operations. Furthermore, we cannot provide assurances that the outcome of these matters will not have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flow. Like all pharmaceutical manufacturers, we in the future may be exposed to other product liability claims, which could harm our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

 

12.FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

 

Fair value is the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability assuming an orderly transaction in the most advantageous market at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in measuring fair value.

 

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis  

 

The inputs used in measuring the fair value of cash and cash equivalents are considered to be level 1 in accordance with the three-tier fair value hierarchy. The fair market values are based on period-end statements supplied by the various banks and brokers that held the majority of our funds. The fair value of short-term financial instruments (primarily accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, borrowings under line of credit, and other current liabilities) approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature.

12.FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES – continued

 

Our CVRs, which were granted coincident with the Merger (Note 3), are considered contingent consideration and are classified as liabilities. As such, the CVRs were recorded as purchase consideration at their estimated fair value, using level 3 inputs, and are marked to market each reporting period until settlement. The fair value of CVRs is estimated using the present value of our projection of the expected payments pursuant to the terms of the CVR agreement, which is the primary unobservable input. If our projection or expected payments were to increase substantially, the value of the CVRs could increase as a result. The present value of the liability was calculated using a discount rate of 15%. We determined that the fair value of the CVRs, and the changes in such fair value, was immaterial as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Prior to the Merger, ANIP’s warrants to purchase common and preferred stock were classified as derivative liabilities and were measured at fair value using level 3 inputs. The fair value of stock purchase warrants was determined using a two-step process that included valuing ANIP's equity using both market and discounted cash flow methods, and then apportioning that value, using an equity allocation model, to each of ANIP's classes of stock. These models require the use of unobservable inputs such as fair value of ANIP's common and preferred stock, expected term, anticipated volatility, future interest and interest rates, expected cash flows and the number of outstanding common and preferred shares as of a future date. We determined that the fair value of the derivative liabilities, and the changes in such fair value, was immaterial as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013. All such stock purchase warrants expired in connection with the Merger.

 

The following table presents our financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

 

(in thousands)                
Description  Fair Value at

CVRs  $-   $-   $-   $- 

 

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

We do not have any non-financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

 

We measure our long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. No such fair value impairment was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

13.SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

In April 2014, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Sofgen Pharmaceuticals to develop an oral soft gel prescription product (the “April 2014 Sofgen Agreement”). The product will be subject to an ANDA filing once developed. In general, Sofgen will be responsible for the development, manufacturing and regulatory submission of the product, including preparation of the ANDA, and we will provide payments based on the completion of certain milestones. Upon approval, Sofgen will manufacture the drug and we will be responsible for the marketing and distribution, under our label, of the product in the United States, providing a percentage of profits from sales of the drug to Sofgen.

 

Under the April 2014 Sofgen Agreement, Sofgen will own all the rights, title and interest in the product. During the term of the April 2014 Sofgen Agreement, both parties are prohibited from developing, selling or distributing any product in the United States that is identical or bioequivalent to the product covered under the April 2014 Sofgen Agreement. The April 2014 Sofgen Agreement can be terminated or amended under certain specified circumstances. The April 2014 Sofgen Agreement has an initial term of ten years from the launch of the product, which term will automatically renew for two year terms until either party terminates the agreement.

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q quarterly report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements, based on current expectations and related to future events and our future financial performance, that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many important factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

OVERVIEW

 

ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and subsidiary (the “Company,” “we,” or “us”) is an integrated specialty pharmaceutical company developing, manufacturing and marketing branded and generic prescription pharmaceuticals. Our targeted areas of product development currently include narcotics, oncolytics (anti-cancers), hormones and steroids, and complex formulations involving extended release and combination products. We have two pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities located in Baudette, Minnesota that are capable of producing oral solid dose products, as well as liquids and topicals, narcotics, and potent products that must be manufactured in a fully-contained environment. Our strategy is to continue to use these manufacturing assets to develop, produce, and distribute niche generic pharmaceutical products. These areas of focus reflect our specialized manufacturing experience and capabilities and offer a large number of attractive niche generic product opportunities.

 

Our established product portfolio consists of both branded and generic pharmaceuticals, including:

 

Generic Products   Branded Products
Esterified Estrogen with Methyltestosterone Tablets   Cortenema®
Fluvoxamine Maleate Tablets   Reglan® Tablets
Hydrocortisone Enema    
Metoclopramide Syrup    
Opium Tincture    

  

We consider a variety of criteria in determining which products to develop, all of which influence the level of competition upon product launch. These criteria include:

 

Formulation Complexity. Our development and manufacturing capabilities enable us to manufacture pharmaceuticals that are difficult to produce, including highly potent, extended release, combination, and low dosage products. This ability to manufacture a variety of complex products is a competitive strength that we intend to leverage in selecting products to develop or manufacture.
Patent Status. We seek to develop products whose branded bioequivalents do not have long-term patent protection or existing patent challenges.
Market Size. When determining whether to develop or acquire an individual product, we review the current and expected market size for that product at launch, as well as forecasted price erosion upon conversion from branded to generic pricing. We endeavor to manufacture products with sufficient market size to enable us to enter the market with a strong likelihood of being able to price our products both competitively and at a profit.
Profit Potential. We research the availability and cost of active pharmaceutical ingredients along with anticipated market share in determining which products to develop or acquire. In determining the potential profit of a product, our management forecasts our anticipated market share, pricing, which includes expected price erosion caused by competition from other generic manufacturers, and the estimated cost to manufacture the products.
Manufacturing. We generally seek to develop and manufacture products at our own manufacturing plants in order to maximize the capacity and utilization of our facilities, to ensure quality control in our products, and to maximize profit potential.
Competition. When determining whether to develop or acquire an individual product, we research the existing and expected market share of generic competitors. We seek to develop products for which we can obtain a large market share, and may decline to develop a product if we anticipate that many generic competitors will be entering that product’s market. Our highly specialized manufacturing facilities provide a means of entering niche markets, such as hormone therapies, in which fewer generic companies would be able to compete.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2014 AND 2013

 

Net Revenues

 

(in thousands)  Three Months Ended March 31,         
   2014   2013   Change   % Change 
Generic pharmaceutical products  $8,054   $2,666   $5,388    202.1%
Branded pharmaceutical products   774    861    (87)   (10.1)%
Contract manufacturing   1,619    1,741    (122)   (7.0)%
Contract services and other income   452    294    158    53.7%
                     
Total net revenues  $10,899   $5,562   $5,337    96.0%

 

We have historically derived substantially all of our revenues from sales of generic and branded pharmaceutical products, contract manufacturing, and contract services, which include product development services, laboratory services, and royalties on net sales of certain contract manufactured products.

 

Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $10.9 million compared to $5.6 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of $5.3 million, or 96.0%, primarily as a result of the following factors:

 

·Net revenues for generic pharmaceutical products were $8.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, an increase of 202.1% compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2013. The primary reason for the increase was increased sales of Esterified Estrogen with Methyltestosterone tablets (“EEMT”), which was the result of increases in both market share and prices per bottle due to a decrease in competition, which we cannot be sure will continue. In the third quarter of 2013, a significant competitor stopped producing EEMT, which led to a material increase in our market share for the product and enabled us to significantly increase the price we charge for the product. In addition, we experienced market share gains in our Opium Tincture, Metoclopramide, and Fluvoxamine Maleate products.

 

As described in Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q quarterly report, we market EEMT and Opium Tincture without FDA-approved New Drug Applications (“NDAs”). The FDA's policy with respect to the continued marketing of unapproved products appears in the FDA's September 2011 Compliance Policy Guide Sec. 440.100 titled "Marketed New Drugs without Approved NDAs or ANDAs." Under this policy, the FDA has stated that it will follow a risk-based approach with regard to enforcement against marketing of unapproved products. The FDA evaluates whether to initiate enforcement action on a case-by-case basis, but gives higher priority to enforcement action against products in certain categories, such as those with potential safety risks or that lack evidence of effectiveness. While we believe that, so long as we comply with applicable manufacturing and labeling standards, the FDA will not take action against us under the current enforcement policy, we can offer no assurances that the FDA will continue this policy or not take a contrary position with any individual product or group of products. Our combined net revenues for these products for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $6.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

 

·Net revenues for branded pharmaceutical products were $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of 10.1% compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2013. The primary reasons for the decrease were lower unit sales of our Cortenema® product, as well as slightly lower unit sales of Reglan® tablets.

 

23
 

 

·Contract manufacturing revenues were $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of 7.0% compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2013, due to decreased orders from contract manufacturing customers during the period. As described in Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q quarterly report, we contract manufacture a group of products on behalf of a customer that are marketed by that customer without an FDA-approved NDA. If the FDA took enforcement action against such customer, the customer may be required to seek FDA approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market. Our contract manufacturing revenues for the group of unapproved products for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

 

·Contract services and other income were $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, an increase of 53.7% from $0.3 million for the same period in 2013, due to increased billings related to achievement of project milestones for one of our customers. As described in Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q quarterly report, we receive royalties on the net sales of a group of contract-manufactured products, which are marketed by the customer without an FDA-approved NDA. If the FDA took enforcement action against such customer, the customer may be required to seek FDA approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market. Our royalties on the net sales of these unapproved products for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0.1 million.

 

Cost of Sales (Excluding Depreciation and Amortization)

 

(in thousands)  Three Months Ended March 31,         
   2014   2013   Change   % Change 
Cost of sales (excl. depreciation and amortization)  $2,622   $2,408   $214    8.9%

 

Cost of sales consists of direct labor, including manufacturing and packaging, active and inactive pharmaceutical ingredients, freight costs, and packaging components. Cost of sales does not include depreciation and amortization expense, which is reported as a separate component of operating expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, cost of sales increased to $2.6 million from $2.4 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of $0.2 million or 8.9%, primarily as a result of an increase in sales of generic pharmaceutical products. Cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 24.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2014, from 43.3% during same period in 2013, primarily as a result of a price increase for EEMT, a favorable shift in product mix toward higher margin products, as well as decreases in the cost of raw material for Opium Tincture.

 

We source the raw materials for our products, including active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”), from both domestic and international suppliers. Generally, only a single source of API is qualified for use in each product due to the cost and time required to validate a second source of supply. Changes in API suppliers usually must be approved by the FDA, which can take 18 months or longer. As a result, we are dependent upon our current vendors to reliably supply the API required for ongoing product manufacturing. In addition, certain of our APIs for our drug products, including those that are marketed without approved NDAs or ANDAs, are sourced from international suppliers. From time to time, we have experienced temporary disruptions in the supply of certain of such imported APIs due to FDA inspections. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we purchased 49% of our inventory from two suppliers. As of March 31, 2014, amounts payable to these suppliers were immaterial. In the three months ended March 31, 2013, we purchased 43% of our inventory from three suppliers. 

 

Each year, we must submit a request to the Drug Enforcement Agency (“DEA”) for a quota to purchase the amount of API needed to manufacture Opium Tincture. Without an approved quota from DEA, we would not be able to purchase API from our supplier. As a result, we are dependent upon the DEA to annually approve a sufficient quota of API to support the continued manufacture of Opium Tincture.

Other Operating Expenses

 

(in thousands)  Three Months Ended March 31,         
   2014   2013   Change   % Change 
Research and development  $376   $296   $80    27.0%
Selling, general and administrative   3,703    2,310    1,393    60.3%
Depreciation and amortization   703    145    558    384.8%
                     
Total other operating expenses  $4,782   $2,751   $2,031    73.8%

 

Other operating expenses consist of research and development costs, selling, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, other operating expenses increased to $4.8 million from $2.8 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of $2.0 million, or 73.8%, primarily as a result of the following factors:

 

·Research and development expenses increased from $0.3 million to $0.4 million, due to timing differences in product development schedules between the periods.
·Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $2.3 million to $3.7 million, primarily as a result of an increase in personnel and consulting, legal, and other fees related to becoming a public company.
·Depreciation and amortization increased from $0.1 million to $0.7 million, an increase of 384.8%, due to amortization of the ANDAs purchased from Teva Pharmaceuticals (“Teva”) in the quarter and amortization of the Teva license acquired in the Merger.

 

Other Expenses

 

(in thousands)  Three Months Ended March 31,         
   2014   2013   Change   % Change 
Interest expense  $-   $(93)  $93    (100.0)%

Total other income/(expense)  $29   $(143)  $172    (120.3)%

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recognized other income of $29 thousand versus other expense of $143 thousand for the same period in 2013, a change of $172 thousand, or 120.3%. This change resulted primarily from the following factors:

 

·Interest expense decreased from $93 thousand to $0 as a result of paying down our revolving line of credit in the second quarter of 2013, in connection with the Merger.
·Other expense changed from expense of $50 thousand to income of $29 thousand, which was the result of a settlement of a returns discrepancy with a customer. Other expense of $50 thousand in the three months ended March 31, 2013 consisted of $50 thousand of monitoring fees paid to two investors. Upon completion of the Merger, our obligation to pay monitoring and advisory fees was terminated.

At March 31, 2014, we had $51.4 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2013, we had $11.1 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. We received net proceeds of $46.7 million from a follow-on public offering that closed on March 10, 2014. In addition, we acquired ANDAs related to 31 products for $12.5 million from Teva.

 

We believe that our financial resources, consisting of current working capital and anticipated future operating revenue, will be sufficient to enable us to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.

 

The following table summarizes the net cash and cash equivalents provided by/(used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities for the periods indicated:

 

(in thousands)  Three Months ended March 31, 
   2014   2013 
Operating Activities  $5,179   $(234)
Investing Activities  $(12,635)  $(108)
Financing Activities  $47,724   $372 

 

Net Cash Provided By/(Used In) Operations

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $0.2 million used in operating activities during the same period in 2013, an increase in cash provided of $5.4 million between the periods. This increase was due to changes in net income and changes in current assets and current liabilities. Net income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by $3.7 million from the same period in 2013, after adjusting for non-cash expenses. Changes in current assets and current liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 provided cash of $1.1 million compared to a use of cash of $0.6 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of approximately $1.7 million between the periods. Accounts receivable decreased by $1.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared with a $0.5 million increase in the prior year period. Accounts payable increased by $1.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared with a $0.1 million increase in the prior year period. These increases to cash provided were partially offset by an increase to inventory of $1.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared with a $0.2 million increase in the prior year.

 

26
 

 

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $12.6 million, principally due to the $12.5 million asset acquisition from Teva of ANDAs related to 31 generic products, in addition to capital expenditures during the period. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million during the same period in 2013, relating primarily to capital expenditures.

 

Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $47.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, resulting primarily from $46.7 million of net proceeds received in our March 10, 2014 follow-on public offering. We also received $0.7 million of cash from stock option exercises and $0.2 million from warrant exercises during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.4 million during the same period in 2013, resulting primarily from increased borrowings under our then-outstanding revolving line of credit, which was paid in full at the Merger.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES

 

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, estimates are used for, but not limited to, stock-based compensation, allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for chargebacks, returns and other allowances, allowance for inventory obsolescence, accruals for contingent liabilities and litigation, fair value of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and valuation allowance, and the depreciable lives of long-lived assets.

 

A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 1 — Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Certain of our accounting policies are considered critical, as these policies require significant, difficult or complex judgments by management, often requiring the use of estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Such policies are summarized in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance for the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss ("NOL") carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance requires an entity to present in the financial statements an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for an NOL carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. If the NOL carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit will be presented in the financial statements as a liability and will not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance does not require any additional recurring disclosures and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not required due to Smaller Reporting Company status. 

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

   

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2014. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Part II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

 

Please refer to Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q quarterly report, which is incorporated into this item by reference.

 

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, please carefully consider the factors described in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 under the heading “Part I — Item 1A. Risk Factors.” The risks described are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that our management currently deems to be immaterial, also may adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Other than as described below, there has been no material change to those risk factors.

 

Our ability to utilize our net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in the future is subject to substantial limitations and we may not be able to use certain identified net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in the future, which could result in increased tax payments in future periods.

 

Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, if a corporation undergoes an ownership change (generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period), the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income may be limited. On June 19, 2013, BioSante experienced an ownership change. Accordingly, our ability to utilize BioSante’s NOL and tax credit carryforwards attributable to periods prior to June 19, 2013 is subject to substantial limitations. In addition, as a result of the offering that closed on March 10, 2014, we believe that ANIP Acquisition Company experienced an ownership change. Accordingly, our ability to utilize ANIP Acquisition Company's NOL and tax credit carryforwards attributable to periods prior to the offering is subject to substantial limitations. These limitations, in turn, could result in increased future tax payments, which could be material.
