NOTES TO CONSOLDIATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Organization

Alliqua, Inc., formerly Hepalife Technologies, Inc., (“Alliqua” or the "Company"), is a Florida corporation formed on October 21, 1997. On December 20, 2010, the Company changed its name to Alliqua, Inc.

AquaMed Technologies, Inc. (“AquaMed”) is a Delaware corporation formed on January 13, 2009. On May 11, 2010, Alliqua consummated a merger acquiring all of the issued and outstanding common and preferred shares of AquaMed. As a result of the transaction, the former owners of AquaMed became stockholders of Alliqua.

The Company is a biomedical company that does business through the following wholly owned subsidiaries:

	●	AquaMed, which was incorporated in Delaware on January 13, 2009. Through AquaMed, the Company develops, manufactures and markets high water content, electron beam cross-linked, aqueous polymerhydrogels (“gels”) used for wound care, medical diagnostics, transdermal drug delivery and cosmetics.

	●	Alliqua Biomedical, Inc. (“Alliqua Biomedical”), which was incorporated in Delaware on October 27, 2010. Through Alliqua Biomedical, the Company focuses on the development of proprietary products for wound care dressings and a core transdermal delivery technology platform designed to deliver drugs and other beneficial ingredients through the skin. The Company intends to market its own branded lines of prescription and over-the-counter (“OTC”) wound care products, as well as to supply products to developers and distributors of prescription and OTC wound healing products for redistribution to healthcare professionals and retailers through Alliqua Biomedical.

	●	HepaLifeBiosystems, Inc. (“HepaLife”), which was incorporated in Nevada on April 17, 2007. Through HepaLife, the Company holds a technology called HepaMate™. Since May 2010, the Company has not allocated resources to HepaMate™ other than for the maintenance of patents and intellectual property related to the technology and instead has focused its resources on products being developed by AquaMed and Alliqua Biomedical. The Company continues, however, to explore various options to best realize value from its HepaMate™ technology, including selling it or partnering with another company to further develop it. If the Company is unsuccessful in its efforts to realize value from our HepaMate™ technology, the recorded value of the related intangibles will be subject to significant impairment.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of this Form 10-Q. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2013.

Note 3 – Liquidity

The Company has experienced negative operating cash flows since inception and has funded its operations primarily from sales of common stock and other securities. The Company’s cash requirements have historically been for product development, clinical trials, marketing and sales activities, finance and administrative costs, capital expenditures and overall working capital.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company sold 42,684,262 shares of common stock for total net proceeds of $3,271,293, as detailed in Note 8. Subsequent to September 30, 2013, the Company received gross proceeds of $1,000,000 through the sale of 250,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, as detailed in Note13.

The Company believes that its need for additional equity capital will continue and it intends to pursue additional financing from existing relationships (such as shareholders, investors and lenders) and from new investors to support its expansion, research and development programs and operations. The Company may pursue sources of additional capital through various means, including strategic alliances, debt financing, or equity financing. The Company intends to engage investment banking firms to assist it with some of these efforts.

ALLIQUA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLDIATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Future financings are likely to be dilutive to existing stockholders and the terms of securities issued may be more favorable for new investors. Newly issued securities may include preferences, superior voting rights, and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have additional dilutive effects. Further, the Company may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. The Company may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities it may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact the Company’s financial condition.

If the Company is unable to raise additional capital or encounters unforeseen circumstances that place constraints on its capital resources, it will be required to take more severe measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but are not necessarily limited to, eliminating non-essential positions, eliminating the Company’s clinical studies, and ceasing all marketing efforts. The Company would have to curtail business development activities and suspend the pursuit of the Company’s business plan. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in improving revenues, reducing expenses and/or securing additional capital in sufficient amounts and on terms favorable to the Company, if needed.

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should it be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”. ASC Topic 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has decreased below its carrying value. There were no events or circumstances that indicated an impairment may exist for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Goodwill

The Company reviews its goodwill for impairment annually, or more frequently, if facts and circumstances warrant a review. Goodwill is assigned on the date of acquisition. The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, the Company will assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows. If future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, the Company will recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There were no events or circumstances that indicated an impairmentmay exist for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

Acquired In-Process Research and Development (“IPR&D”)

IPR&D represents the fair value assigned to an incomplete research project, comprised of the HepaMatetechnology that the Company acquired through the 2010 merger with AquaMed which, at the time of acquisition, had not reached technological feasibility. The amount is capitalized and is accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset, subject to impairment testing until completion or abandonment of the project. Upon successful completion of the project, a determination will be made as to the then useful life of the intangible asset, generally determined by the period in which substantially all of the cash flows are expected to be generated, and begin amortization. The Company tests IPR&D for impairment at least annually or more frequently if impairment indicators exist after performing a qualitative analysis. Management has multiple criteria that it considers when performing the qualitative analysis. The results of this review are then weighed and prioritized. If the totality of the relevant events and circumstances indicate that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the IPR&D is less than its carrying amount, the first and second steps of the impairment test are not necessary.

The Company is actively seeking to recognize value from the IPR&D. There were no events or circumstances that indicated an impairment may exist for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

Back to Table of Content

ALLIQUA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLDIATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Impairment of long-lived assets subject to amortization

The Company amortizes intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives and reviews them for impairment annually or whenever an impairment indicator exists. The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, the Company will assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows. If future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, the Company will recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There were no events or circumstances that indicated an impairment existed for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses represent costs incurred to develop technology and new line of proprietary products. Research and development expenses are charged to operations as they are incurred, including internal costs, costs paid to sponsoring organizations, and contract services for any third party laboratory work. Research and development expenses are tracked by project.

Use of Estimates in the Financial Statements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities and derivative financial instruments issued in financing transactions, accounts receivable reserves, inventory reserves, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances, and the fair values of long lived assets, intangibles and goodwill. The Company re-evaluates its accounting estimates quarterly and records adjustments, when necessary.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of the underlying assets and liabilities. The Company establishes a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it determines that it is more likely than not that the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded a deferred income tax provision caused principally by current income tax deductions related to the amortization of goodwill over a 15 year life for tax purposes that have not been recognized for financial reporting purposes. Management has performed an evaluation and concluded that there were no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2013.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company assesses classification of common stock purchase warrants at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities or equity is required. The Company’s free standing derivatives consist of warrants to purchase common stock that were issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement on November 8, 2012. The Company evaluated the common stock purchase warrants to assess their proper classification in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and determined that the common stock purchase warrants contain exercise reset provisions. Accordingly, these instruments have been classified as warrant liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The Company re-measures warrant liabilities at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings for each reporting period.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally re-measured on interim financial reporting dates and vesting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a graded-vesting basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of each award. Stock-based compensation expense is reflected within operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for awards with performance conditions if and when the Company concludes that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The Company reassesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period for awards with performance conditions and adjusts stock-based compensation expense based on its probability assessment.

ALLIQUA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLDIATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon selling an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability on the measurement date. It focuses on the exit price in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair values are as follows:

Level 1: Observable prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Common stock equivalents, consisting of warrants, stock options and non-vested restricted stock units, were not included in the calculation of the diluted loss per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The total common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants and non-vested restricted stock units are as follows:

	2013		2012

Stock Options		168,122,603		57,170,000

The initial term of the agreement ends on December 31, 2018 and will be extended for additional year terms until December 31, 2023, so long as the Company and Sorbion agree in September as to the minimum annual purchase amount for the calendar year that ends four years from the calendar year of such September.

In order to maintain its exclusivity, the Company must purchase the following minimum amounts, in Euros, of the Products for the indicated calendar year:

Calendar Year		Minimum Annual Purchase Amount
2014		500,000 Euros
2015		1,000,000 Euros
2016		2,500,000 Euros
2017		4,000,000 Euros

Since the Company must purchase the minimum amounts in Euros, the equivalent U.S. dollar expenditure could be subject to significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

If the Company fails to purchase products in amounts that meet or exceed the minimum annual purchase amount for a calendar year, it may cure such minimum purchase failure by paying Sorbion in cash an amount equal to the minimum annual purchase amount for such calendar year less the amount the Company paid to Sorbion for the products purchased for such calendar year. If the Company does not cure a minimum purchase failure with a makeup payment for a calendar year, Sorbion may terminate the Company’s exclusivity with respect to the products and grant the Company non-exclusive rights with respect to the products. If the Company does not cure a minimum purchase failure for two subsequent calendar years, Sorbion may terminate the agreement. The Company will not be required to meet the minimal annual purchase amount if Sorbion fails to supply the Company with the products inaccordance with the agreement. Sorbion may also terminate the Company’s exclusivity with respect to the products if the Company does not cure a material breach of the agreement within 30 days.

The Company has the right to use the trademarks related to the products. The Company will sell the products under their respective trademarked names and at prices determined by the Company. Sorbion may determine in its sole discretion the prices of the products sold to the Company, which are subject to change beginning January 1, 2015.

NOTES TO CONSOLDIATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The securities purchase agreement for each of the above referenced financings contains representations, warranties and covenants of the investors and the Company that are typical for transactions of this type. In addition, the securities purchase agreement contains a “full ratchet” anti-dilution adjustment provision, pursuant to which, in the event that the Company sells or issues shares of common stock or common stock equivalents at a price (the “Base Price”) lower than $0.081 per share, the Company will be required to issue to each investor, for no additional consideration, a certain number of shares of common stock such that the purchase price paid by such investor under the securities purchase agreement for the number of shares originally held, when divided by the aggregate number of shares originally held and any additional shares issued to such investor, will equal the Base Price. This investor right will terminate at any time following the nine month anniversary of the final closing under the securities purchase agreement, if (i) the closing sales price of the common stock for thirty (30) consecutive trading days is at least 200% of the per share purchase price, (ii) the product of (A) the volume weighted average price of the common stock on its principal market and (B) its corresponding daily trading volume, each as reported by Bloomberg L.P., equals or exceeds $50,000 for such thirty (30) consecutive trading days and (iii) the investor shares that were acquired hereunder by investors who are not our affiliates were eligible for unrestricted sale pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(i) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on their principal market from the six month anniversary of the final closing under the securities purchase agreement through at least the nine month anniversary of the final closing under the securities purchase agreement. Each warrant is exercisable immediately for cash. In addition, in the event that there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of a warrant at any time following the one year anniversary of the issuance date of such warrant, such warrant may also be exercised by way of a cashless exercise. The warrants also contain customary provisions that protect their holders against dilution by adjustment of the purchase price in certain events such as stock dividends, stock splits and other similar events. The shares and the warrants issued to the investors were not registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration under the Securities Act, provided by Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act. Each investor was an accredited investor (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act) at the time of the private placement.

Warrants

On July 11, 2013, the Company issued to a consultant a five-year warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, which will vest and become exercisable in 12 equal monthly installments over the first year from the date of issuance. The grant date value was $14,640.

In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to warrants issued, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:

	For The Three Months Ended September 30,						For The Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012
Risk free interest rate		1.40	%		0.74	%		1.15	%		0.84	%
Expected term (years)		5.00			5.00			5.00			5.00
Expected volatility		99.87	%		97.69	%		99.92	%		99.89	%
Expected dividends		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%

The risk-free interest rate is based on rates of treasury securities with the same expected term as the warrants. The expected term used for warrants is the contractual life. The Company is utilizing an expected volatility figure based on a review of the Company’s historical volatility, over a period of time, equivalent to the expected life of the instrument being valued. The expected dividend yield is based upon the fact that the Company has not historically paid dividends, and does not expect to pay dividends in the near future.

The weighted average estimated fair value per share of the compensatory warrants issued during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $0.05 and $0.05, respectively, and was $0.04 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. There were no warrants issued as compensation during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

As of September 30, 2013, there was $6,863 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to warrants that is subject to non-employee mark-to-market adjustments and will be amortized over a weighted average period of 0.8 years.

A summary of the warrant activity, including common stock purchase warrants, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is presented below:

NOTES TO CONSOLDIATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to stock options granted, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:

	For The Three Months Ended September 30,						For The Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012
Risk free interest rate		1.69	%		0.49	%		1.26	%		0.73	%
Expected term (years)		6.04			3.86			5.63			5.51
Expected volatility		99.87	%		97.57	%		99.17	%		98.75	%
Expected dividends		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%

The risk-free interest rate is based on rates of treasury securities with the same expected term as the options. The Company uses the "simplified method" to calculate the expected term of employee and director stock-based options. The expected term used for consultants is the contractual life. The Company is utilizing an expected volatility figure based on a review of the Company’s historical volatility, over a period of time, equivalent to the expected life of the instrument being valued. The expected dividend yield is based upon the fact that the Company has not historically paid dividends, and does not expect to pay dividends in the near future.

The weighted average estimated fair value per share of the options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $0.05 and was $0.02 and $0.04 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized a credit of $411,614 relating to options containing performance conditions, of which, $386,119 related to previously recognized expense for options where the perfomance was not rendered by the required date and have been forfeited, and $25,495 related to the expense previously recognized for options which were originally deemed probable of being achieved that are now deemed improbable of being achieved. As of September 30, 2013, there was $2,839,129 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options which will be amortized over a weighted average period of 2.6 years, of which $93,101 is subject to non-employee mark-to-market adjustments.

A summary of the stock option activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is presented below:

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurement

On September 30, 2013, the Company recomputed the fair value of its warrant liability using the Binomial option pricing model (Level 3 inputs) using the following assumptions: expected volatility of 99.44%, risk-free rate of 1.01%, expected term of 4.11 years, and expected dividends of 0.00%. The Company recorded a (gain) loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $(32,978) and $243,735 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of Level 3 warrant liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Beginning balance as of January 1, 2013	$	605,737

Change in fair value of warrant liability		243,735

Ending balance as of September 30, 2013	$	849,472

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis are as follows:

	Level		Level		Level
		1		2		3
Recurring:
Derivative liabilities		N/A		N/A	$	849,472

Warrants that contain exercise reset provisions are Level 3 derivative liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using pricing models for which at least one significant assumption is unobservable. The fair value of assets valued on a nonrecurring basis was determined using discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques. For fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, who reports to the Chief Executive Officer, determines its valuation policies and procedures. The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and the fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and are approved by the Chief Executive Officer.

Note 13 – Subsequent Events

Sales of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

Subsequent to September 30, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an investor pursuant to which the Company sold 250,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to the investor and issued to the investor a warrant to purchase up to 5,555,555 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $0.10 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000. In connection with the closing of the sale of the Preferred Stock and Warrants, the Company paid $70,000 in fees to the Company’s placement agent and issued a $0.10 Warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock and a $0.11 Warrant to purchase 388,899 shares of Common Stock to the placement agent.

Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights and Preferences of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock filed by the Company with the Florida Secretary of State on October 18, 2013 (the “Certificate of Designation”), the stated value of the Preferred Stock is $4 per share (the “Stated Value”) and the Preferred Stock accrue dividends on the Stated Value at an annual rate of 6%, payable quarterly in new shares of Common Stock. Each share of the Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $0.09 per share. The conversion price of the Preferred Stock is subject to full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustment in the event the Company issues securities, other than certain excepted issuances, at a price below the then-current conversion price, as well as other typical conversion price adjustments. In addition, the Preferred Stock is subject to mandatory conversion upon either (i) the Company closing an equity, or equity-linked, transaction or series of related transactions with aggregate proceeds to the Company of $5 million or greater, or (ii) at any time after April 22, 2015, the closing price of the Common Stock equaling or exceeding 2.5 times the then-applicable conversion price for a period of sixty consecutive trading days with a minimum average trading volume of 100,000 shares per day over such period; provided, that, at such time, the Company has an effective registration statement for the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock (the “Underlying Shares”) or the Underlying Shares may be offered for sale to the public without any volume restrictions, pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Unless previously converted, the Company is required to redeem the Preferred Stock on October 21, 2015 at a redemption price equal to the Stated Value.

Overview

We operate through three wholly-owned subsidiaries: AquaMed Technologies, Inc.; Alliqua Biomedical; Inc. and HepaLifeBiosystems, Inc.

We develop, manufacture and market high water content, electron beam cross-linked, aqueous polymer hydrogels, or gels, used for wound care, medical diagnostics, transdermal drug delivery and cosmetics. We supply these gels primarily to the wound care and pain management segments of the healthcare industry. We believe that we are one of only two known manufacturers of these gels in the world. We specialize in custom gels by capitalizing on proprietary manufacturing technologies.

Our gels can be utilized as delivery mechanisms for medication to be delivered through the skin into the blood stream, known as transdermal delivery, or to be delivered between the layers of the skin, known as intradermal delivery. Active ingredients can be added to our gels for use in wound/burn dressings and to provide for the topical application of non-prescription drugs. Additionally, our gels can also be used as components in certain medical devices, skin care treatments, cosmetics and other commercial products.

Our products are manufactured using proprietary and non-proprietary mixing, coating and cross-linking technologies. Together, these technologies enable us to produce gels that can satisfy rigid tolerance specifications with respect to a wide range of physical characteristics (e.g., thickness, water content, adherence, absorption, vapor transmission, release rates) while maintaining product integrity. Additionally, we have the manufacturing ability to offer broad choices in selection of liners onto which the gels are coated. Consequently, our customers are able to determine tolerances in vapor transmission and active ingredient release rates while personalizing color and texture.

Recent Events

Subsequent to September 30, 2013, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an investor pursuant to which we sold 250,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to the investor and issued to the investor a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase up to 5,555,555 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $0.10 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000. In connection with the closing of the sale of the Preferred Stock and Warrant, the Company paid $70,000 in fees to the Company’s placement agent and issued a $0.10 warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock and a $0.11 warrant to purchase 388,899 shares of Common Stock to the placement agent.

On November 11, 2013, we entered into a separation and general release agreement (the “Separation and General Release Agreement”) with David Stefansky, our former co-executive chairman, pursuant to which Mr. Stefansky’s employment agreement with us, dated as of May 31, 2012 (the “Employment Agreement”), was terminated effective as of December 31, 2012. Pursuant to the Separation and General Release Agreement, in exchange for Mr. Stefansky waiving and releasing us from any claims he may have had against us, all unvested options to purchase shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) held by Mr. Stefansky were immediately vested in full and we entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Stefansky, dated as of November 11, 2013, retroactively effective to January 1, 2013 (the “Consulting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Separation and General Release Agreement, Mr. Stefansky remains subject to the non-competition and non-solicitation obligations under the Employment Agreement.

Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, through December 31, 2014, Mr. Stefansky will provide certain consulting services to us at our request in exchange for (i) a one-time grant of 8,144,719 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) monthly payments of $2,500 retroactively due from January 2013 through March 2014. Mr. Stefansky is also subject to, among other things, confidentiality restrictions typical for agreements of this type.

The foregoing summaries of the Separation and General Release Agreement and the Consulting Agreement are not complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the agreements that are exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Readers should review those agreements for a more complete understanding of the terms and conditions associated with this transaction.

Critical Accounting Policies

A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operation and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our critical accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and are disclosed in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. There have not been any material changes to such critical accounting policies since December 31, 2012.

Results of Operations

Overview. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we had a net loss of $2,236,045 and $7,029,224, respectively, inclusive of non-cash items, largely related to stock-based compensation, totaling approximately $640,608 and $3,667,608 for each respective period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we had a net loss of $874,438 and $3,054,064, respectively, inclusive of non-cash items, largely related to stock-based compensation, totaling approximately $523,633 and $1,484,849 for each respective period. As we intend to preserve cash as much as possible while executing our business plan, in light of our limited cash balance, we expect equity to continue to represent a significant portion of compensation going forward. In light of this, we believe there will be significant future expenses for non-cash stock-based compensation.

Revenues. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, revenues were $437,985 and $1,328,911, respectively, compared to $373,790 and $828,260 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase for the three- month period is due to the increase in sales of our proprietary products. The increase for the nine-month period is primarily due to greater sales volume from our largest customer during 2013 and the increase in the sales of our proprietary products.

Back to Table of Content

Gross Loss.For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we had a gross loss of $148,734 and a gross loss of $215,658, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we had a gross loss of $77,286 and $519,433, respectively. The increase in the gross loss during the three month period was due to an increase in labor costs and the disposal of certain materials resulting in an increase in material costs.The improved results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to 2012, was due to the higher volume of sales with sustained fixed overhead expenses. Fixed overhead includes depreciation, labor and occupancy expense. Depreciation of equipment and amortization of technology included in cost of sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $163,719 and $487,854,respectively, compared to $162,923 and $484,800 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. Labor-related expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $174,913 and $354,077, respectively, compared to $110,466 and $317,543 for the comparable periods in 2012. The increase in labor was due to the hiring of temporary personnel to support in the manufacturing process. Rent expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $65,007 and $192,550 respectively, compared to $62,889 and $198,761 in the comparable 2012 periods.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,083,426 and $6,494,654 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared to $767,614 and $2,335,539 for the same periods in 2012. The increase in expenses is due to an increase in both cash salary compensation and non-cash stock-based compensation, principally for executive management, in the respective 2013 periods compared to 2012. We have made several significant hires in management since November of 2012 in an effort to realign our managerial profile. These hires are intended to lead to increased revenues in our contract manufacturing and wound care businesses.

Salaries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $495,953 and $1,256,836, respectively, compared to $128,752 and $827,722 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in salaries is attributable to the hire of several executive personnel in 2013. Stock based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $496,565 and $2,898,132, respectively. Stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30,2012 was $339,627 and $968,876, respectively.

Consulting fees for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 were $354,936 and $1,712,929, respectively compared to $75,865 and $196,455 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Prior to the recent hire of several managerial positions, we had a number of consultants to assist us in various positions. In addition, several consultants were issued stock options as non-cash stock-based remuneration.

Research and Development. We recorded research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $33,602 and $63,204, respectively, and $30,396 and $193,102, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in research and development expenses for the nine month period was due principally to a reduction in expenses associated with the development of our transdermal pain patch. We had put efforts to develop this product on hold until our capital resources were higher and given our successful capital raises in 2013, we have recently relaunched our research and development efforts of our pain patch with the commissioning of a preclinical study. We believe our research and development expenses may increase in future quarters as we continue the life cycle management of our proprietary line of products. Also, we intend to commit management resources to the further development of the HepaMate™ asset as we explore various options to monetize this technology.

Impairment of Intangibles We review our goodwill for impairment annually, or more frequently, if facts and circumstances warrant a review. Goodwill is assigned on the date of acquisition. We evaluate goodwill for impairment by comparing fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including the associated goodwill. To determine the fair value, we use the income approach based on estimated discounted future cash flows. The cash flow assumptions consider historical and forecasted revenue, operating costs and other relevant factors. We have assessed qualitative factors to determine whether current events and circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount at this time. After assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we determined that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its carrying amount at this time, and therefore, the two-step impairment test was unnecessary at September 30, 2013.

We continue to pursue strategies to monetize our HepaMate technology. Current initiatives include dedicating senior management resources, evaluating capital requirements, hiring a banker to explore its sale and partnering options, updating valuation scenarios and reviewing the technology with key opinion leaders and subject area experts. While management currently believes that fair value is greater than book value, there can no assurances that the results of these initiatives to obtain sufficient resources or partners to monetize such asset will be successful. Accordingly, after performing the annual quantitative impairment analysis, we may determine that partial or full impairment may be necessary. We did not recognize any impairment charges for intangibles for the three month period ended September 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2013, cash and cash equivalents totaled $420,157, compared to $260,357 at December 31, 2012. The increase is attributable to net financing proceeds of approximately $3,300,000 offset by cash used in operating activities of approximately $3,081,947 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013

Net cash flow used in operating activities was $1,467,437 and $3,081,947 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $283,425 and $1,355,489 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase is primarily attributable to the increase in management salaries for the 2013 period.

Cash flow generated from financing activities was $3,291,293 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $1,277,025 for the same period in 2012.

At September 30, 2013, current assets totaled $955,437 and current liabilities totaled $2,332,426, compared to current assets of $882,196 and current liabilities of $1,507,606 at December 31, 2012. As a result, we had a working capital deficit of $1,376,989 at September 30, 2013 compared to a working capital deficit of $625,410 at December 31, 2012.

Our cash requirements have historically been for product development, clinical trials, marketing and sales activities, finance and administrative costs, capital expenditures and overall working capital. We have experienced negative operating cash flows since inception and have funded our operations primarily from sales of common stock and other securities.

During 2013, including periods subsequent to September 30, 2013, we have completed a series of financings pursuant to which we have raised gross proceeds of $4,457,425 and net proceeds of $4,221,293. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Liquidity Outlook

In early 2013, we underwent a transition in management. During this transition, sales of our proprietary products were weaker than expected. In addition, as a result of the management changes, our fixed expenses have increased and may continue to increase as additional personnel are engaged to execute our long-term objectives. Based on these factors, and if weak sales continue in our proprietary products, we will experience a shortfall in cash necessary to sustain operations and we expect to continue to attempt to raise additional working capital.

We believe that our liquidity and capital resources will improve if our new products gain market recognition and acceptance, resulting in increased sales. We continue to focus our efforts on expanding our product offerings. We are seeking complementary products to our hydrogels in an effort to expand our offerings. In addition, we are always seeking ways to modify our products via size, shape or thickness in order to appeal to a broader marketplace.

In August 2013, we signed a distribution agreement with McKesson Medical-Surgical by which their U.S. distribution network will stock and offer for sale our hydrogel products. We intend to enter similar agreements with other health care distributors to assist our customers in getting access to our products from sources widely familiar to those in the position of purchasing health care supplies.

Also in August 2013, we entered into distribution agreements with two firms that we believe will allow us to have a greater presence of sales representatives than was previously the case, without taking on the financial burden of an internal sales force. We are also engaging independent sales associates across the United States in order to gain a footprint nationally and eliminate the expense of full-time employees. We believe this model will allow us to recognize revenues with our only expense being commissions. We have initiatives under way to partner with national distributors to simplify the fulfillment process for our customers. This will allow us to focus our efforts and resources on the sales process.

In September 2013, we entered into a distributor agreement (the “Sorbion Agreement”) with Sorbion GmbH & Co KG (“Sorbion”), pursuant to which we became the exclusive distributor of sorbion sachet S, sorbionsana and new products with hydrokinetic fibers as primary dressings (the “Products”) in the United States of America, Canada and Latin America (the “Territory”), subject to certain exceptions.

Back to Table of Content

Pursuant to the Sorbion Agreement, in order to maintain exclusivity, we must purchase the following minimum amounts, in Euros, of the products for the indicated calendar year:

Calendar Year		Minimum Annual Purchase Amount

2014		500,000 Euros
2015		1,000,000 Euros
2016		2,500,000 Euros
2017		4,000,000 Euros

Since we must purchase the minimum amounts in Euros, the equivalent U.S. dollar expenditure could be subject to significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

In September 2013, we entered into an agreement with Carolon Company ("Carolon"), pursuant to which, among other things we purchased from Carolon distribution rights for Sorbion Sachet products and access to customer information, sales and training materials as well as other information pertaining to the existing independent sales and marketing channels for the products. In consideration, we agreed to pay Carolon a minimum of $450,000 (i) $50,000 paid in September 2013 (ii) 12 equal payments beginning November 2013 totaling $400,000, and (iii) if we sell a minimum of $600,000 of Sorbion Sachet products in the calendar year 2014, we are obligated to pay an additional $50,000 due January 2015.

Due to the time delay between outlays for working capital expenditures such as the hiring and training of sales personnel, purchasing of inventory and recognition of revenue, we expect to continue to incur net operating cash outflows. It is difficult to accurately predict cash flow due to various factors, including the challange of estimating potential demand for our products as we are entering new markets and have varying demand levels from our major customers. The initial ramp up of sales in our new line of products has been slower than expected and it may result in cash constraints. Even if demand for our new products meets or exceeds our forecasts, we may require additional capital funding to increase capacity and efficiency in our manufacturing process. If demand is greater than forecast, we may outsource a portion of our manufacturing process, which will decrease our profit margins.

If our new products do not gain forecasted market recognition, it will be necessary to reduce expenses, delay investment spending or raise additional capital. The reduction in future expenses could be significant and may further delay increased revenues. If the reduction in expenses is not sufficient, then we will experience a shortfall in cash necessary to sustain operations and we will be required to seek additional capital in order to maintain sufficient funds to operate. In addition, we believe that we will require additional capital in order to execute the longer term aspects of our business plan, including additional research and development efforts related to HepaMate.

As it is likely that our need for additional equity capital will continue, we intend to pursue additional financing from existing investors and from new investors to support our strategic initiatives. In addition, we may pursue sources of additional capital through various means, including joint ventures, debt financing, or equity financing. From time to time, we intend to engage investment banking firms to assist us with these efforts.

Future financings are likely to be dilutive to existing shareholders and the terms of securities issued may be more favorable to new investors. Newly issued securities may include certain preferences, superior voting rights, and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have additional dilutive effects. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our financial condition.

If we are unable to raise additional capital or we encounter circumstances that place unforeseen constraints on our capital resources, we will be required to take even stronger measures to conserve liquidity, which may include, but are not limited to, eliminating all non-essential positions, eliminating our clinical studies, and ceasing all marketing efforts. We would have to curtail business development activities and suspend the pursuit of our business plan. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in improving revenues, reducing expenses and/or securing additional capital in sufficient amounts and on terms favorable to us.

As a result of our recurring losses, our expectation of continued incurrence of negative cash flows from operations and our negative working capital and limited cash resources in light of expected expenditures, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Conclusions Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2013, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and participation of management including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures.

Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any legal proceedings that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, except for the following:

Risks Related to our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

The terms of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock contain covenants that could limit our financing options and liquidity position, which would limit our ability to grow our business.

The terms of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock impose operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions prohibit or limit our abilityto, among other things:

●	incur more than $100,000 of indebtedness or a security interest on any of our assets or the assets of our subsidiaries, other than in connection with ordinary course equipment financings;

●	authorize additional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock;

●	amend our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws in any manner that would impair or reduce the rights of ourSeries A Convertible Preferred Stock;

●	liquidate or dissolve; or

●	issue any class or series of equity security senior to ourSeries A Convertible Preferred Stock.

In addition, if we issue any class or series of equity security senior to our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the holders of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to require us to redeem our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to 120% of itsstated value, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon.

These restrictions may limit our ability to obtain additional financing, withstand downturns in our business or take advantage of business opportunities. Moreover, additional financing we may seek may contain terms that include more restrictive covenants, may require repayment of indebtedness on an accelerated schedule or may impose other obligations that limit our ability to grow our business, acquire needed assets or take other actions we might otherwise consider appropriate or desirable.

Our Series A Convertible Preferred Stockhas a liquidation preference over our common stock.

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, which includes our merger with another entity or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, after payment or provision for payment of our debts and other liabilities, before any distribution or payment may be made to the holders of any of our junior securities, including our common stock, the holders of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to a liquidation preference equal to 120% of the stated value of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. If we were liquidated, dissolved or sold, the ability of our common stock shareholders to receive any distribution of payment could be significantly limited.

Back to Table of Content

The terms of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock contain anti-dilution provisions that may result in the reduction of the conversion price of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in the future.

The terms of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock contain anti-dilution provisions. If in the future we issue securities for less than the conversion price of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, we will be required to reduce the conversion price of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stockto the purchase price of such offerings. As a result, we may find it more difficult to raise additional equity capital while shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

As noted in Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2013, we issued certain options to consultants during the three months ended September 30, 2013. These options were issued to consultants in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.
