CORCEPT THERAPEUTICS INCORPORATED
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated is a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of medications that treat severe metabolic, oncologic and psychiatric disorders by modulating the effect of the hormone cortisol. In 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved Korlym® (“mifepristone”) 300 mg tablets, as a once-daily oral medication for the treatment of hyperglycemia secondary to hypercortisolism in adult patients with endogenous Cushing’s syndrome who have type 2 diabetes mellitus or glucose intolerance and have failed surgery or are not candidates for surgery. We have discovered and patented four structurally distinct series of selective cortisol modulators, consisting of more than 1,000 compounds. We are developing compounds from these series as potential treatments for a broad range of serious disorders.
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware in May 1998. Our headquarters are located in Menlo Park, California.
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the following in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X: (i) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020, (ii) statements of comprehensive income and stockholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and (iii) statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. These do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation (which in the applicable periods consist only of normal, recurring adjustments) have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the remainder of 2020 or any other period. These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The December 31, 2019 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements at that date.
There have been no material changes in the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 except for the adoption of the accounting pronouncements set forth below.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and for determining when such losses are recorded. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of the adoption recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. It had no impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820),” which eliminates or modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and requires disclosure of additional information. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of the adoption recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. It had no impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 (ASC Topic 740), “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This standard simplifies accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles and clarifying existing guidance. This standard will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. We are assessing the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Available-for-Sale Securities and Fair Value Measurements
The available-for-sale securities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| June 30, 2020 | | December 31, 2019 |
| | | |
| (in thousands) | | |

The following table presents our available-for-sale securities grouped by asset type:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Fair Value Hierarchy Level | | June 30, 2020 | | | | | | | | December 31, 2019 | | | | | | |
| | | Amortized Cost | | Gross Unrealized Gains | | Gross Unrealized Losses | | Estimated Fair Value | | Amortized Cost | | Gross Unrealized Gains | | Gross Unrealized Losses | | Estimated Fair Value |

Corporate bonds | Level 2 | | $ | 120,055 | | | $ | 352 | | | $ | (4) | | | $ | 120,403 | | | $ | 109,780 | | | $ | 136 | | | $ | (6) | | | $ | 109,910 | |

Asset-backed securities | Level 2 | | 39,560 | | | 78 | | | — | | | 39,638 | | | 57,195 | | | 63 | | | (5) | | | 57,253 | |
Repurchase agreements | Level 2 | | — | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 18,000 | | | — | | | — | | | 18,000 | |
U.S. treasury securities | Level 1 | | 128,449 | | | 438 | | | (1) | | | 128,886 | | | 75,574 | | | 71 | | | — | | | 75,645 | |
Money market funds | Level 1 | | 34,758 | | | — | | | — | | | 34,758 | | | 461 | | | — | | | — | | | 461 | |
Total Marketable securities | | | $ | 384,929 | | | $ | 869 | | | $ | (5) | | | $ | 385,793 | | | $ | 302,247 | | | $ | 270 | | | $ | (11) | | | $ | 302,506 | |
We estimate the fair value of marketable securities classified as Level 1 using quoted market prices for these or similar investments obtained from a commercial pricing service. We estimate the fair value of marketable securities classified as Level 2 using inputs that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads.
We periodically review our debt securities to determine if any of our investments is impaired due to credit-related or other issues. If the fair value of our investment in any debt security is less than our amortized cost basis, we determine whether an allowance for credit losses is appropriate by assessing quantitative and subjective factors including, but not limited to, the nature of security, changes in credit ratings, analyst reports concerning the security’s issuer and industry, interest rate fluctuations and general market conditions.
Unrealized losses on our available-for-sale debt securities as of June 30, 2020 were not significant and were primarily due to changes in interest rates, and not increased credit risk. Accordingly, we have not recorded an allowance for credit losses associated with these investments.
We do not intend to sell the investments that are in an unrealized loss position, and it is highly unlikely that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their full amortized cost basis, which will most likely be at maturity.
We classified accrued interest on our marketable securities of $1.2 million and $1.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, as prepaid and other current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
As of June 30, 2020, all our marketable securities had original maturities of less than two years. The weighted-average maturity of our holdings was six months. As of June 30, 2020, our long-term marketable securities had remaining maturities of 13 months. None of our marketable securities changed from one fair value hierarchy to another during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
4. Leases
We lease our office facilities in Menlo Park, California. On January 1, 2019, we recognized a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability of $1.9 million. Effective October 1, 2019, we amended the lease to extend its term from March 31, 2020 to March 31, 2022 and to add more space beginning April 1, 2020. As a result of this amendment, we recognized an additional right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of $3.0 million. Effective June 17, 2020, we amended the lease commencement date for the additional space to June 15, 2020. As a result of this amendment, we recognized an additional right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of $0.8 million. The right-of-use asset and lease liability recognized equals the present value of the remaining payments due under our amended lease.
As the operating lease for our facilities does not include an expressly stated interest rate, we calculated the present value of remaining lease payments using a discount rate equal to the interest rate we would pay on a loan with monthly payments and a term equal to the monthly payments and remaining term of our lease. We recognize operating lease payments as expenses using the straight-line method over the term of the lease.
Operating lease expense for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
For any future operating lease transactions, we will recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities equal to the present value of the expected lease payments at the lease commencement date.
Our right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | | | Six Months Ended June 30, | | |
| 2020 | | 2019 | | 2020 | | 2019 |
| | | | | | | |
| (in thousands) | | | | | | |
Cash paid for operating lease liability | $ | 422 | | | $ | 391 | | | $ | 812 | | | $ | 769 | |
Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liability | $ | 775 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 775 | | | $ | 1,878 | |
As of June 30, 2020, our operating lease had a weighted average remaining lease term of 21 months and a weighted average discount rate of 4.8 percent.
As of June 30, 2020, future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases were as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | |
2020 (remainder) | $ | 1,055 | |
2021 | 2,109 | |
2022 | 530 | |
| 3,694 | |
Less imputed interest | (189) | |
Total lease liabilities | $ | 3,505 | |
5. Commitments and Contingencies
In March 2020, to ensure we have sufficient API to meet future demand for Korlym tablets, we committed to purchase an additional 400 kilograms of API from Produits Chimiques Auxiliaires et de Synthese SA (“PCAS,” a member of the Seqens Group) for a total price of $5.9 million.
There have been no other material changes in our obligations under contractual agreements described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
In the ordinary course of business, we may be subject to legal claims and regulatory actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial position. We assess our potential liability in such situations by analyzing potential outcomes under various litigation, regulatory and settlement strategies. If we determine a loss is probable and its amount can be reasonably estimated, we accrue an amount equal to the estimated loss.
No losses and no provision for a loss contingency have been recorded to date.
6. Stockholders’ Equity
Stock Option Plans
We have two stock option plans – the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) and the 2012 Incentive Award Plan (the “2012 Plan”). In February 2020, our Board of Directors authorized a 4.6 million increase in the shares available for grant under the 2012 Plan.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we issued 1.0 million and 1.1 million shares, respectively, of our common stock upon the exercise of stock options, compared to 0.3 million and 1.8 million shares during the same period of 2019, respectively. Of the shares exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, 0.1 million were issued as part of a net-share settlement of cashless option exercises.
The following table summarizes our stock-based compensation:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | | | Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 | | |
| 2020 | | 2019 | | 2020 | | 2019 |
| | | | | | | |
| (in thousands) | | | | (in thousands) | | |
Stock-based compensation capitalized in inventory | $ | 59 | | | $ | 55 | | | $ | 129 | | | $ | 83 | |
Cost of sales | 15 | | | 55 | | | 38 | | | 83 | |
Research and development | 2,794 | | | 2,505 | | | 5,399 | | | 4,484 | |
Selling, general and administrative | 5,680 | | | 5,176 | | | 10,970 | | | 9,865 | |
Total stock-based compensation | $ | 8,548 | | | $ | 7,791 | | | $ | 16,536 | | | $ | 14,515 | |
Related Party Transaction
On February 26, 2020, we purchased from our Chief Executive Officer $0.3 million of our common stock at a price of $13.54 per share, which was the last quoted price per share on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the date of purchase. We purchased the shares in order to provide him with liquidity to satisfy tax liability arising from his net (cashless) exercise in 2019 of stock options that were about to expire.
7. Net Income Per Share
We compute basic and diluted net income per share by dividing our net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. We used the treasury stock method to determine the number of dilutive shares of common stock resulting from the potential exercise of stock options. The statements of condensed consolidated comprehensive income show the computation of net income per share for each period, including the number of weighted-average shares outstanding.
The following table shows the computation of net income per share for each period:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | | | Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 | | |
| 2020 | | 2019 | | 2020 | | 2019 |
| | | | | | | |
| (in thousands) | | | | (in thousands) | | |
Numerator: | | | | | | | |
Net income | $ | 28,327 | | | $ | 20,186 | | | $ | 58,392 | | | $ | 38,460 | |
Denominator: | | | | | | | |
Weighted-average shares used to compute basic net income per share | 115,006 | | | 114,340 | | | 114,790 | | | 114,590 | |
Dilutive effect of employee stock options | 8,228 | | | 7,443 | | | 7,966 | | | 8,241 | |
Weighted-average shares used to compute diluted net income per share | 123,234 | | | 121,783 | | | 122,756 | | | 122,831 | |
Net income per share | | | | | | | |
Basic | $ | 0.25 | | | $ | 0.18 | | | $ | 0.51 | | | $ | 0.34 | |
Diluted | $ | 0.23 | | | $ | 0.17 | | | $ | 0.48 | | | $ | 0.31 | |
As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, we had 26.4 million and 24.7 million stock options outstanding, respectively.
Because including them would have reduced dilution, we excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share, on a weighted-average basis, 13.4 million and 13.0 million stock options outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and 10.8 million and 9.8 million stock options outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
8. Income taxes
We recorded income tax expense of $7.9 million and $17.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, net of discrete benefits related to stock option exercises and dispositions of $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 consisted primarily of reductions in our deferred tax assets of $4.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively, caused by utilization of our federal and state net operating losses and research tax credits, and income tax expense of $3.0 million and $7.0 million, respectively, for federal and in states where we do not have net operating loss carryforwards.
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, our income tax expense was $5.6 million and $7.4 million, respectively, consisting primarily of reductions of $4.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively, in our deferred tax assets caused by utilization of our federal and state net operating losses, and income tax expense of $0.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively, in states where we do not have net operating loss carryforwards.
Our effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate due to state income taxes and non-deductible stock-based compensation, which increased our tax expense, offset by research and development tax credits and the excess tax deduction arising from the exercise of employee stock options, which reduced our tax expense.
Each quarter, we assess the likelihood that we will generate sufficient taxable income to use our federal and state deferred tax assets. If we believe that recovery of these deferred tax assets is not more likely than not, we will establish a valuation allowance. Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax
