Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements

(Unaudited)

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

 

(amounts in tabular columns expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars)

 

1. Corporate information

Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc. or the “Company” is a biopharmaceutical company with its registered office located at 5120 – 75 Street, Edmonton, Alberta T6E 6W2. The Company has its head office located at #1203-4464 Markham Street, Victoria, British Columbia V8Z 7X8 which incorporates clinical, regulatory and business development functions of the Company.

Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc. is incorporated pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Alberta). The Company’s Common Shares are currently listed and traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol “AUP”. The Company’s primary business is the development of a therapeutic drug to treat autoimmune diseases, in particular lupus nephritis.

On October 23, 2013 the Company consolidated its outstanding common shares on a 50:1 basis. Accordingly, all share and per share references in these financial statements are presented on a post-conversion basis.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Aurinia Pharma Corp. (formerly Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc.), Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Delaware incorporated) and Aurinia Pharma Limited (UK incorporated).

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 13, 2014.

 

2. Basis of presentation

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as applicable to interim financial reports including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

 

3. Significant accounting policies

 

(a) Functional currency and change in presentation currency

Effective January 31, 2014, the Company changed its functional currency from the Canadian dollar (“CDN$”) to the United States dollar (“US$”). The change in functional currency, which has been accounted for prospectively, is to better reflect the Company’s business activities which are primarily denominated in US$ and to improve investors’ ability to compare the Company’s financial results with other publicly traded entities in the biotech industry. In addition, the Company changed its presentation currency to US$ and followed the guidance in IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. Accordingly, the Company has applied the change retrospectively as if the new presentation currency had always been the Company’s presentation currency. In accordance with IAS 21, the financial statements for all years and periods presented have been translated to the US$ presentation currency. For the 2013 comparative balances, assets and liabilities have been translated into US dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date. The statements of comprehensive income (loss) were translated at the average exchange rates for the reporting period, or at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of significant transactions. Exchange differences arising on translation were taken to cumulative translation adjustment in shareholders’ equity. The Company has presented a third statement of financial position as at January 1, 2013 without the related notes except for the disclosure requirements outlined in IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. In addition, the Company adopted a policy of not reassessing classification of warrants after initial issuance and therefore there is no effect to previously issued warrants exercisable in CDN$.

 

(b) Recent changes in accounting standards

IAS36, Impairment of Assets: IAS36 has been amended to include limited scope amendments to the impairment disclosures. The amendments are effective for the annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2014 and had no significant impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Accounting standards and amendments issued but not yet adopted

IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, was issued in November 2009 and addresses classification and measurement of financial assets. It replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments. Such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. Where equity instruments are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, dividends are recognized in profit or loss to the extent that they do not clearly represent a return of investment; however, other gains and losses (including impairments) associated with such instruments remain in accumulated comprehensive income indefinitely.

Requirements for financial liabilities were added to IFRS 9 in October 2010 and they largely carried forward existing requirements in IAS 39, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement, except that fair value changes due to credit risk for liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss are generally recorded in other comprehensive income. The effective date of IFRS 9 has been deferred and is currently unknown.

IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, was issued in May 2014 by the IASB and supersedes IAS 18, ‘Revenue’, IAS 11, ‘Construction Contracts’ and other interpretive guidance associated with revenue recognition. IFRS 15 provides a single model to determine how and when an entity should recognize revenue, as well as requiring entities to provide more informative, relevant disclosures in respect of its revenue recognition criteria. IFRS 15 is to be applied retrospectively or through the recognition of the cumulative effect to opening retained earnings and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017, with earlier application permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact that IFRS 15 may have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments

Revenue recognition

Management’s assessments related to the recognition of revenues for arrangements containing multiple elements are based on estimates and assumptions. Judgment is necessary to identify separate units of accounting and to allocate related consideration to each separate unit of accounting. Where deferral of upfront payments or license fees is deemed appropriate, subsequent revenue recognition is often determined based upon certain assumptions and estimates, the Company’s continuing involvement in the arrangement, the benefits expected to be derived by the customer and expected patent lives. To the extent that any of the key assumptions or estimates change future operating results could be affected.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration is a financial liability recorded at fair value (see note 7). The amount of contingent consideration to be paid is based on the occurrence of future events, such as the achievement of certain development, regulatory and sales milestones. Accordingly, the estimate of fair value contains uncertainties as it involves judgment about the likelihood and timing of achieving these milestones as well as future foreign exchange rates and the discount rate used. Changes in fair value of the contingent consideration obligation result from changes to the assumptions used to estimate the probability of success for each milestone, the anticipated timing of achieving the milestones, and the discount period and rate to be applied. A change in any of these assumptions could produce a different fair value, which could have a material impact to the results from operations.

The key assumptions used by management include the probability of success for each milestone (35% - 70%) and a discount rate change to 10% as at March 31, 2014 from 15% used in 2013 which reflects the Company’s reduced credit risk. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 there were no changes made to the assumptions used at March 31, 2014. If the probability for success were to increase by a factor of 10% for each milestone this would increase the obligation by approximately $316,000 at June 30, 2014. If the probability for success were to decrease by a factor of 10% for each milestone this would decrease the obligation by approximately $316,000 at June 30, 2014. If the discount rate were to increase to 12%, this would decrease the obligation by approximately $245,000. If the discount rate were to decrease to 8%, this would increase the obligation by approximately $274,000.

Fair value of stock options

Determining the fair value of stock options on grant date, including performance based options, requires judgment related to the choice of a pricing model, the estimation of stock price volatility and expected term of the underlying instruments. Any changes in the estimates or inputs utilized to determine fair value could result in a significant impact on the Company’s reported operating results, liabilities or other components of shareholders’ equity. The key assumption used by management is the stock price volatility. If the stock price volatility was higher by a factor of 10% on the grant date of February 14, 2014 this would increase annual stock compensation expense by approximately $120,000. If the stock price volatility was lower by a factor of 10% on grant date this would decrease annual stock compensation expense at June 30, 2014 by approximately $117,000.

Fair value of warrants

Determining the fair value of warrants requires judgment related to the choice of a pricing model, the estimation of stock price volatility, expected term of the underlying instruments and the probability factors of success in achieving the objectives for contingently issuable warrants. Any changes in the estimates or inputs utilized to determine fair value could result in a significant impact on the Company’s future operating results, liabilities or other components of shareholders’ equity. If the stock price volatility was higher by a factor of 10% this would have increased the value of the warrants (equity component) by approximately $680,000. If the stock price volatility was lower by a factor of 10% this would have decreased the value of the warrants (equity component) by approximately $674,000.

If the weighted average probability factors were to increase by a factor of 10% this would have increased the value of the warrant liability at June 30, 2014 by approximately $175,000. If the weighted average probability factors were to decrease by a factor of 10% this would have decreased the value of the warrant liability at June 30, 2014 by approximately $159,000.

7. Contingent consideration

The Company has recorded the fair value of contingent consideration payable to ILJIN Life Science Co., Ltd. (“ILJIN”) resulting from the Arrangement Agreement completed on September 20, 2013 between the Company, Aurinia Pharma Corp. and ILJIN.

There were two categories of contingent consideration. The first was a financing milestone of $1,600,000 payable upon the Company completing a financing of up to $10,000,000. The Company closed a $52,000,000 private placement on February 14, 2014 and accordingly this financing milestone was paid to ILJIN by the Company in February of 2014.

The second category of contingent consideration relates to payments of up to $10,000,000 to be paid in five equal tranches according to the achievement of pre-defined clinical and marketing milestones. If all milestones are met, the timing of these payments is expected to occur as follows:

 

2016

   $ 2,000,000   

2017

     2,000,000   

2019

     4,000,000   

2020

     2,000,000   

The fair value of this portion of contingent consideration at June 30, 2014 was estimated to be $3,263,000 (December 31, 2013: $2,690,000) and was determined by applying the income approach. The estimate increased by $105,000 from that used at March 31, 2014 to reflect the reduction in time until reaching the milestone dates, with the Company recording a revaluation expense adjustment on contingent consideration of $105,000 in other expense (income) in the second quarter ended June 30, 2014. The fair value estimates at June 30, 2014 were based on a discount rate of 10% and an assumed probability-adjusted payment range between 35% and 70%. This is a level 3 recurring fair value measurement. As a result of reducing the discount rate to 10% at March 31, 2014 from 15% at December 31, 2013, with the probabilities for payments being the same, the Company recorded a revaluation expense adjustment on contingent consideration of $533,000 in other expense (income) in the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.

On February 14, 2014, the Company completed a $52,000,000 private placement (the “Offering”). The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to advance the clinical and nonclinical development of its lead drug candidate, voclosporin, as a therapy for lupus nephritis, and for general corporate purposes.

Under the terms of the Offering, the Company issued 18,919,404 units (the “Units”) at a subscription price per Unit of $2.7485, each Unit consisting of one common share and one-quarter (0.25) of a common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”), exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $3.2204. In addition, the Company signed a Registration Rights Agreement with subscribers to register its common shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Share issue costs included a 7.5% cash commission of $3,495,000 paid to the placement agents and filing, legal and escrow fees of $198,000 directly related to the Offering of which $203,000 were allocated to the contingent warrants and expensed in the period.

In addition, in the event that the Company would not be able to reduce the size of its Board of Directors to seven directors within 90 days following closing of the Offering, an additional 0.1 Warrants would be issued for each Unit purchased by a subscriber for every additional 90 day period delay, up to a maximum of 0.35 Warrants per Unit. This represents a maximum of 6,621,791 additional Warrants (“Board Warrants”).

If the Company does not obtain approval to list its common shares on NASDAQ within 12 months following the closing of the Offering, the Company has agreed to issue an additional 0.1 Warrants for each Unit purchased by a subscriber for every 90 day period delay, up to a maximum of 0.35 Warrants per Unit. This represents a maximum of 6,621,791 additional Warrants (“NASDAQ Warrants”). All securities issued in connection with the Offering were subject to a four month hold period from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities law, which expired on June 15, 2014.

The Board Warrants and NASDAQ Warrants are contingently issuable and since the number of warrants to be issued is variable, they meet the definition of financial liabilities under IFRS, which are measured at fair value at each reporting period. As such, the warrant liabilities are recurring fair value measures categorized in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The value of each warrant was calculated using the Black-Scholes method (with significant assumptions as disclosed above) and results in an individual warrant value of $2.20. The number of warrants expected to be issued, which is dependent on the probability of the expected outcomes and timing of those outcomes, is an unobservable input which was initially estimated at February 14, 2014. The probabilities were not revised as at March 31, 2014 since management’s expectations regarding the outcomes had not changed since the closing of the Offering, and as a result there was no gain or loss recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

As there was a degree of uncertainty achieving the reduction of its Board to seven directors and obtaining a NASDAQ listing as at March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a warrant liability of $2,834,000 related to the contingently issuable warrants noted above. Management used weighted average probability factors of 3% for Board Warrants and 16% for NASDAQ Warrants in determining the contingent settlement liability.

On May 7, 2014 the Company held its Annual General and Special Shareholder Meeting at which the shareholders approved the composition of the Board at seven directors, therefore extinguishing the Board Warrant liability relating to this condition. As a result the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of warrant liability of $438,000 in other expense (income) in the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

The Company also reviewed the probability factors regarding obtaining a NASDAQ listing and based on the work performed towards this objective, adjusted the probability factor downward to 12% from 16% in determining the contingent settlement liability. As a result of this adjustment the Company recorded a gain on re-measurement of warrant liability of $646,000 in other expense (income) in the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

Therefore, at June 30, 2014 the warrant liability is estimated to be $1,750,000.

(c) Stock options and compensation expense

The maximum number of Common Shares issuable under the Stock Option Plan is equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares at the time the Common Shares are reserved for issuance. As at June 30, 2014 there were 31,369,000 Common Shares of the Company issued and outstanding, resulting in a maximum 3,136,900 of options available for issuance under the 2012 Stock Option Plan. An aggregate total of 1,420,000 options are presently outstanding, representing 4.5 % of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company.

The Stock Option Plan requires the exercise price of each option to be determined by the Board of Directors and not to be less than the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the day immediately prior to the date of grant. Any options which expire may be re-granted. The Board approves the vesting criteria and periods at its discretion. The options issued under the plans are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payments.

On February 18, 2014, the Company granted 1,192,200 stock options to certain directors and officers of the Company at a price of $3.19 (CDN$3.50) per common share. The options are exercisable for a term of ten years. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not grant any stock options.

Application of the fair value method resulted in charges to stock-based compensation expense of $435,000 and $1,733,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 respectively, (2013 – $79,000 and $184,000) with corresponding credits to contributed surplus. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, stock compensation expense has been allocated to research and development expense in the amounts of $Nil and $Nil respectively, (2013 – $34,000 and $76,000) and corporate and administration expense in the amounts of $435,000 and $1,480,000 respectively, (2013 – $45,000 and $108,000) and restructuring costs in the amounts of $ Nil and $253,000 respectively (2013-$Nil and $Nil).

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options granted to employees, officers and directors.

The following weighted average assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the options granted during the six month period ended June 30, 2014:

The Company considers historical volatility of its common shares in estimating its future stock price volatility. The risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the options was based on the yield available on government benchmark bonds with an approximate equivalent remaining term at the time of the grant. The expected life is based upon the contractual term taking into account expected employee exercise and expected post-vesting employment termination behaviour.

The Company recorded restructuring costs of $403,000 in the second quarter ended June 30, 2014 related to the relocation of the head office of the Company to Victoria, British Columbia from Edmonton, Alberta. These costs included moving expenses, severance, retention payments and moving costs totaling $226,000 and an additional provision for loss on sublease agreement of $177,000. This additional provision increased the total provision for restructuring costs to $277,000, of which $123,000 is expected to be settled in the next year.

On February 14, 2014 the Company signed a NICAMs Purchase and Sale Agreement with Ciclofilin Pharmaceuticals Corp. (“Ciclofilin”), a company controlled by the former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer, whereby it divested its early stage research and development Non-Immunosuppressive Cyclosporine Analogue Molecules (“NICAMs”) assets, consisting of intellectual property, including patent applications and know-how to Ciclofilin. There was no upfront consideration received by the Company and future consideration will consist of milestones relating to the clinical and marketing success of NICAMs and a royalty. Due to NICAMs’ early stage of development, the Company has estimated the fair value of the consideration to be $nil at this time.

The Company recorded $216,000 of restructuring costs related to the NICAMs. These restructuring costs consisted of severances of $115,000 paid to the three employees working on the NICAMs and $101,000 of other NICAMs related expenses, including wage and patent costs incurred from January 1, 2014 to the divestiture date.

The Company recorded as restructuring costs, stock compensation expense of $253,000 related to stock options granted in February 2014 to the former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer pursuant to his termination agreement.

11. Net loss per common share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In determining diluted net loss per common share, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted for stock options and warrants eligible for exercise where the average market price of common shares for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 exceeds the exercise price. Common shares that could potentially dilute basic net loss per common share in the future that could be issued from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants were not included in the computation of the diluted loss per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 because to do so would be anti-dilutive. In addition, the NASDAQ Warrants, as described in note 8 (a), are not included in diluted loss per common share since the conditions for issuance have not been met.

The numerator and denominator used in the calculation of historical basic and diluted net loss amounts per common share are as follows:

14. Foreign exchange risk

The Company is exposed to financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign currency exchange rates. Foreign currency risk is the risk that variations in exchange rates between the Company’s functional currency and foreign currencies will affect the Company’s operating and financial results.

As a result of the change in the functional currency to U.S. dollars as of January 31, 2014, the Company has foreign exchange exposure to the CDN dollar as follows:

Reporting date rate
June 30,

$

 

$CA - $US

     0.937   
  

 

 

 

Based on the Company’s foreign currency exposures noted above, varying the foreign exchange rates to reflect a ten percent strengthening of the U.S. dollar would have decreased the net loss by $89,000 assuming that all other variables remained constant. An assumed 10 percent weakening of the U.S. dollar would have had an equal but opposite effect to the amounts shown above, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.

 

15. Subsequent event

Subsequent to June 30, 2014, the Company issued 131,000 common shares upon the exercise of 131,000 warrants for gross proceeds of $326,000.
