NOTE B – Plan of Operations The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations each period since its inception. Through March 31, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $39.7 million. The Company’s operations have been financed primarily through the sale of equity securities. The Company’s net loss for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $4.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The Company has been engaged in developing a pipeline of product candidates since 2011. To date, the Company has not obtained regulatory approval for any of its product candidates nor generated any revenue from products and the Company expects to incur significant expenses to complete development of its product candidates. The Company may never be able to obtain regulatory approval for the marketing of any of its product candidates in any indication in the United States or internationally and there can be no assurance that the Company will generate revenues or ever achieve profitability. Assuming the Company obtains FDA approval for one or more of its product candidates, which the Company does not expect to receive until 2021 at the earliest, the Company expects that its expenses will continue to increase once the Company reaches commercial launch. The Company also expects that its research and development expenses will continue to increase as it moves forward with additional clinical studies for its current product candidates and developing additional product candidates. As a result, the Company expects to continue to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future, and that these losses will be increasing. The Company will need to secure additional capital in order to fund its long term continuing operations. The Company can provide no assurances that such additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. On January 13, 2017, the Company completed its warrant tender offer, with gross cash proceeds of $ 13.5 million and net proceeds estimated at $ 12.7 million (see Footnote D for additional details). The Company anticipates that current cash on hand at March 31, 2017 would be sufficient to meet its operating obligations into June 2018. |
