CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains statements throughout this report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Words such as, but not limited to, “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “target,” “goal,” “likely,” “will,” “would,” and “could,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions or words, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations that involve risks, changes in circumstances, assumptions and uncertainties. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements include, among others:
 
the ability of Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. (we, our, the Company or Vanda) to continue to commercialize HETLIOZ® (tasimelteon) for the treatment of non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder (Non-24) in the United States (U.S.) and Europe;
uncertainty as to the ability to increase market awareness of Non-24 and the market acceptance of HETLIOZ®;
our ability to continue to generate U.S. sales of Fanapt® (iloperidone) for the treatment of schizophrenia;
our dependence on third-party manufacturers to manufacture HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® in sufficient quantities and quality;
our level of success in commercializing HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® in new markets;
our ability to prepare, file, prosecute, defend and enforce any patent claims and other intellectual property rights;
our ability to reach agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding our regulatory approval strategy, preclinical animal testing requirements or proposed path to approval for tradipitant;
a loss of rights to develop and commercialize our products under our license agreements;
our ability to obtain approval from the FDA for HETLIOZ® for the treatment of Jet Lag Disorder;
the ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval of our products, and the labeling for any approved products;
the timing and success of preclinical studies and clinical trials;
a failure of our products to be demonstrably safe and effective;
limitations on our ability to utilize some or all of our prior net operating losses and orphan drug and research and development credits;
the size and growth of the potential markets for our products and the ability to serve those markets;
our expectations regarding trends with respect to our revenues, costs, expenses, liabilities and cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities;
the scope, progress, expansion and costs of developing and commercializing our products;
our failure to identify or obtain rights to new products;
a loss of any of our key scientists or management personnel;
the cost and effects of litigation;
our ability to obtain the capital necessary to fund our research and development or commercial activities;
regulatory developments in the United States, Europe and other foreign countries;
potential losses incurred from product liability claims made against us; and
use of our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
All written and verbal forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We caution investors not to rely too heavily on the forward-looking statements we make or that are made on our behalf. We undertake no obligation, and specifically decline any obligation, to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
We encourage you to read Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. In addition to the risks described below and in Item 1A of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, other unknown or unpredictable factors also could affect our results. Therefore, the information in this quarterly report should be read

together with other reports and documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K, which may supplement, modify, supersede or update those risk factors. As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this report will prove to be accurate. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material.

VANDA PHARMACEUTICALS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1. Business Organization and Presentation
Business organization
Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the Company) is a leading global biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies to address high unmet medical needs and improve the lives of patients. The Company commenced its operations in 2003 and operates in one reporting segment. The Company’s portfolio includes the following products:
 
HETLIOZ® (tasimelteon), a product for the treatment of non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder (Non-24), was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2014 and launched commercially in the U.S. in April 2014. In July 2015, the European Commission (EC) granted centralized marketing authorization with unified labeling for HETLIOZ® for the treatment of Non-24 in totally blind adults. HETLIOZ® was commercially launched in Germany in August 2016. HETLIOZ® has potential utility in a number of other circadian rhythm disorders and is presently in clinical development for the treatment of Jet Lag Disorder, Smith-Magenis Syndrome (SMS) and pediatric Non-24. An assessment of new HETLIOZ® clinical opportunities, including the treatment of delayed sleep phase disorder and for sleep disorders in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders, is ongoing.
Fanapt® (iloperidone), a product for the treatment of schizophrenia, the oral formulation of which was approved by the FDA in May 2009 and launched commercially in the U.S. by Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis) in January 2010. Novartis transferred all the U.S. and Canadian commercial rights to the Fanapt® franchise to the Company on December 31, 2014. Additionally, the Company's distribution partners launched Fanapt® in Israel in 2014. Fanapt® has potential utility in a number of other disorders. Initial clinical work studying a long acting injectable (LAI) formulation of Fanapt® began in 2018. An assessment of new Fanapt® clinical opportunities, including the treatment of bipolar disorder, is ongoing.
Tradipitant (VLY-686), a small molecule neurokinin-1 receptor (NK-1R) antagonist, which is presently in clinical development for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis, gastroparesis and motion sickness.
VTR-297, a small molecule histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor presently in clinical development for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.
Portfolio of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) activators and inhibitors. An early stage CFTR activator program is planned for the treatment of dry eye and ocular inflammation. In addition, an early stage CFTR inhibitor program is planned for the treatment of secretory diarrhea disorders, including cholera.
VQW-765, a Phase II alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor partial agonist.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. The financial information as of September 30, 2019 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 is unaudited, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for these interim periods have been included. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2018 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or any future year or period.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
With the exception of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases and all related amendments (collectively, Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842) on January 1, 2019, discussed below, there have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Table of Contents

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management continually re-evaluates its estimates, judgments and assumptions, and management’s evaluation could change. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Leases
In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019, the Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from that lease. For leases with a term greater than 12 months, ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease term includes the option to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value. In the case the implicit rate is not available, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date, including publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics, to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company does not combine lease and non-lease elements for office leases. For existing leases as of January 1, 2019, executory costs are excluded from lease expense, which is consistent with the Company's accounting under ASC 840, Leases. For all leases entered into after January 1, 2019, executory costs are allocated between lease and non-lease elements based upon their relative stand-alone prices.

Revenue from Net Product Sales
The Company’s revenues consist of net product sales of HETLIOZ® and net product sales of Fanapt®. Net sales by product for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. This final rule amends certain disclosure requirements that are redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. In addition, the amendments expand the disclosure requirements on the analysis of stockholders' equity for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an analysis of changes in each caption of stockholders' equity presented in the balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. The analysis should present a reconciliation of the beginning balance to the ending balance of each period for which a statement of comprehensive income is required to be filed. This final rule is effective for the Company for all filings made on or after November 5, 2018. The SEC staff clarified that the first presentation of the changes in shareholders' equity may be included in the first Form 10-Q for the quarter that begins after the effective date of the amendments. The adoption of the final rule did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company updated the disclosure of its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders' Equity in 2019 to include a reconciliation for the quarter-to-date and year-to-date comparative periods.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other financial instruments. The standard will require the use of a forward-looking “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The standard is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating this standard to determine if adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s accounts receivable and marketable securities balances and related financial statement disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2, Leases (Topic 842), which was further clarified by ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases - Targeted Improvements, issued in July 2018. ASC 842 supersedes existing lease guidance, including ASC 840 Leases. The new leasing standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new leasing standard requires that lessees will need to recognize an ROU asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases, and allows companies to make a policy election as to whether short term leases will be recognized under the requirements of the new standard. The Company elected to exclude short-term leases in the application of the new standard. The lease liability is equal to the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset is based on the liability subject to certain adjustments. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense, similar to accounting for operating leases under ASC 840, while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern, similar to accounting for capital leases under ASC 840.

The Company adopted the new leasing standard in the first quarter of 2019, using a modified retrospective transition. There was no impact to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the effective date of January 1, 2019 as a result of adoption. Prior period financial statements were not recast. The Company elected the package of transition provisions available for expired or existing contracts, which allowed it to carryforward its historical assessments of (1) whether contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. The adoption of the new leasing standard on January 1, 2019 resulted in the recognition of $15.8 million of operating lease liabilities, $2.2 million of which were classified as current liabilities, with corresponding ROU assets of $12.2 million, net of lease prepayments and the balance of deferred lease incentives. The Company does not have any financing leases.

4. Fair Value Measurements
Authoritative guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
 
Level 1 — defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets
Level 2 — defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable
Level 3 — defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions
Marketable securities classified in Level 1 and Level 2 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 consist of available-for-sale marketable securities. The valuation of Level 1 instruments is determined using a market approach, and is based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets. The valuation of investments classified in Level 2 is also determined using a market approach based upon quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 2 securities include certificates of deposit, commercial paper, corporate notes and asset-backed securities that use as their basis readily observable market parameters. The Company did not transfer any assets between Level 2 and Level 1 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

5. Inventory
The Company evaluates expiry risk by evaluating current and future product demand relative to product shelf life. The Company builds demand forecasts by considering factors such as, but not limited to, overall market potential, market share, market acceptance and patient usage. Inventory levels are evaluated for the amount of inventory that would be sold within one year. At certain times, the level of inventory can exceed the forecasted level of cost of goods sold for the next twelve months. The Company classifies the estimate of such inventory as non-current.
Inventory consisted of the following as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Upon adoption of the new lease standard, discount rates used for existing leases were established at January 1, 2019.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized operating lease cost of $0.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and short-term operating lease cost of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The Company also recognized $0.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of expense related to non-lease elements, such as building maintenance services and utilities, and executory costs associated with the operating leases. For existing leases as of January 1, 2019, executory costs are excluded from operating lease expense, which is consistent with the Company's accounting under ASC 840. For all leases entered into after January 1, 2019, executory costs are allocated between lease and non-lease elements based upon their relative stand-alone prices. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $0.9 million and $2.7 million of rent expense, respectively, inclusive of lease expense, non-lease elements, and executory costs for short and long-term operating leases.
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities is included in operating cash flows was $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

7. Intangible Assets
HETLIOZ®. In January 2014, the Company announced that the FDA had approved the New Drug Application (NDA) for HETLIOZ®. As a result of this approval, the Company met a milestone under its license agreement with Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) that required the Company to make a license payment of $8.0 million to BMS. The $8.0 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful life of the related product patents, the latest of which expires in July 2035.
In April 2018, the Company met its final milestone under its license agreement when cumulative worldwide sales of HETLIOZ® reached $250.0 million. As a result of the achievement of this milestone, the Company made a payment to BMS of $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2018. The $25.0 million was determined to be additional consideration for the acquisition of the HETLIOZ® intangible asset and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful life of the related product patents, the latest of which expires in July 2035.
The estimated economic useful life of both the $8.0 million and the $25.0 million intangible assets were changed from February 2035 to July 2035 based on the July 2035 expiration date of U.S. patent number 10,376,487 ('487 Patent) issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in August 2019. The estimated economic useful life of these intangible assets were previously changed from May 2034 to February 2035 based on the February 2035 expiration date of U.S. patent number 10,071,977 ('977 Patent) issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in September 2018.

License Agreements
The Company’s rights to develop and commercialize its products are subject to the terms and conditions of licenses granted to the Company by other pharmaceutical companies.
HETLIOZ®. In February 2004, the Company entered into a license agreement with BMS under which it received an exclusive worldwide license under certain patents and patent applications, and other licenses to intellectual property, to develop and commercialize HETLIOZ®. As a result of the FDA’s approval of the HETLIOZ® NDA in January 2014, the Company made an $8.0 million milestone payment to BMS in the first quarter of 2014 under the license agreement that was capitalized as an intangible asset and is being amortized over the estimated economic useful life of the related product patents for HETLIOZ® in the U.S. In April 2018, the Company met another milestone under its license agreement when cumulative worldwide sales of HETLIOZ® reached $250.0 million. As a result of the achievement of this milestone, the Company made a payment to BMS of $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2018. The $25.0 million milestone obligation was capitalized as an intangible asset in the first quarter of 2015 and is being amortized over the estimated economic useful life of the related product patents for HETLIOZ® in the U.S. The Company has no remaining milestone obligations to BMS. Additionally, the Company is obligated to make royalty payments on HETLIOZ® net sales to BMS in any territory where the Company commercializes HETLIOZ® for a period equal to the greater of 10 years following the first commercial sale in the territory or the expiry of the new chemical entity (NCE) patent in that territory. During the period prior to the expiry of the NCE patent in a territory, the Company is obligated to pay a 10% royalty on net sales in that territory. The royalty rate is decreased by half for countries in which no NCE patent existed or for the remainder of the 10 years after the expiry of the NCE patent. The Company is also obligated under the license agreement to pay BMS a percentage of any sublicense fees, upfront payments and milestone and other payments (excluding royalties) that it receives from a third party in connection with any sublicensing arrangement, at a rate which is in the mid-twenties. The Company has agreed with BMS in the license agreement for HETLIOZ® to use its commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize HETLIOZ®.
Fanapt®. Pursuant to the terms of a settlement agreement with Novartis, Novartis transferred all U.S. and Canadian rights in the Fanapt® franchise to the Company on December 31, 2014. The Company pays directly to Sanofi S.A (Sanofi) a fixed royalty of 3% of net sales through December 2019 related to manufacturing know-how. No further royalties on manufacturing know-how will be payable by the Company after December 2019. The Company is also obligated to pay Sanofi a fixed royalty on Fanapt® net sales equal to 6% on Sanofi know-how not related to manufacturing under certain conditions for a period of up to 10 years in markets where the NCE patent has expired or was not issued. The Company is obligated to pay this 6% royalty on net sales in the U.S. through November 2026. No further royalties on know-how not related to manufacturing will be payable by the Company for net sales in the U.S. after November 2026.
Tradipitant. In April 2012, the Company entered into a license agreement with Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) pursuant to which the Company acquired an exclusive worldwide license under certain patents and patent applications, and other licenses to intellectual property, to develop and commercialize an NK-1R antagonist, tradipitant, for all human indications. The patent describing tradipitant as an NCE expires in April 2023, except in the U.S., where it expires in June 2024 absent any applicable patent term adjustments. Lilly is eligible to receive future payments based upon achievement of specified development and commercialization milestones as well as tiered-royalties on net sales at percentage rates up to the low double digits. As of September 30, 2019, remaining milestone obligations include a $2.0 million pre-NDA approval milestone due upon the filing of the first marketing authorization for tradipitant in either the U.S. or European Union, $10.0 million and $5.0 million for the first approval of a marketing authorization for tradipitant in the U.S. and European Union, respectively, and up to $80.0 million for sales milestones. In the third quarter of 2018, the Company also made a $2.0 million milestone payment to Lilly as a result of enrolling the first subject into a Phase III study for tradipitant in July 2018. The likelihood of achieving this milestone was determined to be probable during 2017 and the obligation of $2.0 million tied to such milestone was recorded as research and development expense in the consolidated statement of operations during the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company is obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize tradipitant.
VQW-765. In connection with a settlement agreement with Novartis relating to Fanapt®, the Company received an exclusive worldwide license under certain patents and patent applications, and other licenses to intellectual property, to develop and commercialize VQW-765, a Phase II alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor partial agonist. Pursuant to the license agreement, the Company is obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize VQW-765 and is responsible for all development costs. The Company has no milestone obligations; however, Novartis is eligible to receive tiered-royalties on net sales at percentage rates up to the mid-teens.
Portfolio of CFTR activators and inhibitors. In March 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with the University of California San Francisco (UCSF), under which the Company acquired an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize a portfolio of CFTR activators and inhibitors. Pursuant to the license agreement, the Company will develop and

commercialize the CFTR activators and inhibitors and is responsible for all development costs under the license agreement, including current pre-investigational new drug development work. UCSF is eligible to receive future payments based upon achievement of specified development and commercialization milestones as well as single-digit royalties on net sales. As of September 30, 2019, remaining milestone obligations include annual maintenance fees, $12.2 million for pre-NDA approval milestones and $33.0 million for future regulatory approval and sales milestones. Included in the $12.2 million pre-NDA approval milestones is a $350,000 milestone due upon the conclusion of a Phase I study for each licensed product but not to exceed $1.1 million in total for the CFTR portfolio. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company also made a $0.2 million pre-NDA approval milestone payment to UCSF, which was determined to be probable and accrued as a current liability in the fourth quarter of 2018. Additionally, the Company paid an initial license fee of $1.0 million in 2017.
Purchase Commitments
In the course of its business, the Company regularly enters into agreements with clinical organizations to provide services relating to clinical development and clinical manufacturing activities under fee-for-service arrangements. The Company’s current agreements for clinical, marketing, and other services generally may be terminated on 90 days’ notice without incurring additional charges, other than charges for work completed but not paid for through the effective date of termination and other costs incurred by the Company’s contractors in closing out work in progress as of the effective date of termination. Purchase commitments included in the noncancellable long-term contractual cash obligations table above include noncancellable purchase commitments longer than one year and primarily relate to commitments for advertising and data services.
10. Public Offering of Common Stock
In March 2018, the Company completed a public offering of 6,325,000 shares of its common stock, including the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase an additional 825,000 shares of common stock, at a price to the public of $17.00 per share. Net cash proceeds from the public offering were $100.9 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.
11. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
The accumulated balances related to each component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes, were as follows as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

12. Stock-Based Compensation
As of September 30, 2019, there were 6,324,304 shares that were subject to outstanding options and restricted stock units (RSUs) under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (2006 Plan) and the Amended and Restated 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (2016 Plan, and together with the 2006 Plan, Plans). The 2006 Plan expired by its terms in April 2016, and the Company adopted the 2016 Plan. Outstanding options and RSUs under the 2006 Plan remain in effect and the terms of the 2006 Plan continue to apply, but no additional awards can be granted under the 2006 Plan. In June 2016, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan has been amended and restated twice to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance, among other administrative changes. Both amendments and restatements of the 2016 Plan were approved by the Company's stockholders. There are a total of 7,100,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan, 3,063,197 shares of which remained available for future grant as of September 30, 2019.
Stock Options
The Company has granted option awards under the Plans with service conditions (service option awards) that are subject to terms and conditions established by the compensation committee of the Company's board of directors. Service option awards have 10 year contractual terms. Service option awards granted to employees and new directors upon their election vest and

20

become exercisable on the first anniversary of the grant date with respect to 25% of the shares subject to service option awards. The remaining 75% of the shares subject to the service option awards vest and become exercisable monthly in equal installments thereafter over three years. Subsequent annual service option awards granted to directors vest and become exercisable in either equal monthly installments over a period of one year or on the first anniversary of the grant date. Certain service option awards to executives and directors provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control of the Company. Certain service option awards to employees and executives provide for accelerated vesting if the respective employee’s or executive’s service is terminated by the Company for any reason other than cause or permanent disability.
As of September 30, 2019, $10.7 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested service option awards are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years. No option awards are classified as a liability as of September 30, 2019.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted was $10.34 and $10.66 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Proceeds from the exercise of stock options amounted to $4.1 million and $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Restricted Stock Units
An RSU is a stock award that entitles the holder to receive shares of the Company’s common stock as the award vests. The fair value of each RSU is based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. The Company has granted RSUs under the Plans with service conditions (service RSUs) that generally vest over 4 years in equal annual installments provided that the employee remains employed with the Company. Annual service RSUs granted to directors vest on the first anniversary of the grant date.
As of September 30, 2019, $25.3 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested service RSUs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. No RSUs are classified as a liability as of September 30, 2019.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility rates are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s publicly traded common stock and other factors. The risk-free interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has not paid dividends to its stockholders since its inception (other than a dividend of preferred share purchase rights, which was declared in September 2008) and does not plan to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model for stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

13. Income Taxes
For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded income tax benefit of $88.1 million and income tax expense of $0.1 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded income tax benefit of $88.1 million and income tax expense of $0.2 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to the reduction of the Company's tax valuation allowance against substantially all of its deferred tax assets in the U.S. recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net income tax benefit of $1.6 million was also recorded related to the generation of 2019 research and development and orphan drug credits, current taxes payable to certain U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions and uncertain tax positions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. As a result of the tax valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in the U.S., there was no expense for federal income taxes associated with the income before taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. Income taxes were recorded related to certain U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.
The Company assesses the need for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset each quarter through the review of all available positive and negative evidence. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a tax valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2018, there was a full tax valuation allowance against all deferred tax assets in the U.S. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, after considering all available positive and negative evidence, including but not limited to cumulative income in recent periods, historical and current projected results, and significant risks and uncertainties related to forecasts, the Company concluded that it was more likely than not that substantially all of its deferred taxes are realizable in future periods.
Tax benefits are recognized from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit recognized in the financial statements for a particular tax position is based on the largest benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. As of September 30, 2019, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits (UTB) was $9.7 million. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had no UTB. The UTB recognized in 2019 is primarily related to prior year tax positions and has no impact on tax expense as, prior to 2019, a tax valuation allowance was recorded against deferred tax assets in the U.S.

22

Table of Contents

The Company does not expect its unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2019 to change significantly over the next twelve months.
Certain tax attributes of the Company, including net operating losses (NOLs) and credits, would be subject to a limitation should an ownership change as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Section 382, occur. The limitations resulting from a change in ownership could affect the Company’s ability to utilize its NOLs and credit carryforward (tax attributes). Ownership changes occurred in the years ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2008. The Company believes that the ownership changes in 2014 and 2008 will not impact its ability to utilize NOL and credit carryforwards; however, future ownership changes may cause the Company’s existing tax attributes to have additional limitations.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted in December 2017. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company completed its accounting for the tax effects of the TCJA. No material measurement period adjustments were recorded in 2018 to adjust estimated effects of the TCJA that were recorded in 2017. Immaterial measurement period adjustments that were recorded resulted in no tax expense as they were fully offset by a change in the Company's valuation allowance.
14. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus potential outstanding common stock for the period. Potential outstanding common stock includes stock options and shares underlying RSUs, but only to the extent that their inclusion is dilutive.

15. Legal Matters
Fanapt®. The Company has been involved in litigation with Roxane Laboratories, Inc. (Roxane) and its affiliates, West-Ward Pharmaceuticals International Limited and West-Ward Pharmaceuticals Corp (West-Ward), since the Company filed a lawsuit against Roxane in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (Delaware District Court) for patent infringement in June 2014. The lawsuit was filed in response to Roxane’s submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for a generic version of Fanapt® prior to the expiration of certain of the Company’s patents covering Fanapt®, including U.S. Patent No. 8,586,610 (‘610 Patent). In August 2016, the Delaware District Court ruled in the Company’s favor, permanently enjoining Roxane from manufacturing, using, selling, offering to sell, distributing or importing any generic iloperidone product described in Roxane’s ANDA until the expiration of the ‘610 Patent in November 2027, or May 2028 if the Company obtains pediatric exclusivity. In April 2018, following an appeal by Roxane of the Delaware District Court’s decision to the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals (Federal Circuit), the Federal Circuit affirmed the Delaware District Court’s ruling. In June 2018, West-Ward, having replaced Roxane as defendants following the acquisition of Roxane by West-Ward’s parent company, Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC, petitioned the Federal Circuit for a rehearing en banc. In August 2018, the Federal Circuit denied West-Ward's petition. In January 2019, West-Ward filed a petition in the U.S.

Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari seeking reversal of the Federal Circuit’s decision. In March 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court invited the Solicitor General of the U.S. to file a brief in the matter expressing the views of the U.S.
In 2015, the Company filed six separate patent infringement lawsuits in the Delaware District Court against Roxane, Inventia Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. (Inventia), Lupin Ltd. and Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Lupin), Taro Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. and Taro Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd. (Taro), and Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp. (Apotex, and collectively with Roxane, Inventia, Lupin and Taro, the Fanapt® Defendants). These lawsuits were filed in response to the submission to the FDA by each of the Fanapt® Defendants of ANDAs for generic versions of Fanapt® prior to the expiration of the ‘610 Patent in November 2027 or the U.S. Patent No. 9,138,432 in September 2025. The Company entered into separate confidential stipulations with each of Inventia and Lupin regarding any potential launch of their generic versions of Fanapt®. The remaining lawsuits against the other Fanapt® Defendants have been stayed until 14 days after final disposition by the U.S. Supreme Court of the petition for a writ of certiorari filed by West-Ward.
HETLIOZ®. In April and May 2018, the Company filed three separate patent infringement lawsuits in the Delaware District Court against Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva), MSN Pharmaceuticals Inc. and MSN Laboratories Private Limited (MSN) and Apotex (collectively with Teva and MSN, the HETLIOZ® Defendants) after having received Paragraph IV certification notice letters (Paragraph IV Letters) from each of the HETLIOZ® Defendants alleging that certain of the Company's patents covering HETLIOZ® (collectively, the HETLIOZ® Patents) were invalid, unenforceable and/or would not be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of their generic versions of HETLIOZ®, as described in the ANDAs submitted to the FDA by each of the HETLIOZ® Defendants, prior to the expiration of the latest to expire of the HETLIOZ® Patents in 2034. Each of the HETLIOZ® Patents are listed in the Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations (Orange Book). In December 2018, the Company filed amended complaints against each of the HETLIOZ® Defendants following the receipt of additional Paragraph IV Letters from Teva and Apotex concerning its Orange Book listed '977 Patent, which expires in 2035. These lawsuits are scheduled for trial in October 2020.
In March 2019, April 2019, and May 2019, the Company filed three additional patent infringement lawsuits in the Delaware District Court against the HETLIOZ® Defendants following the receipt of additional Paragraph IV Letters from each concerning its Orange Book listed U.S. Patent No. 10,149,829, which expires in 2033. A trial date has not yet been scheduled for these lawsuits.
In October 2019, the Company received an additional Paragraph IV certification notice letter from Teva concerning its Orange Book listed ‘487 Patent, which expires in July 2035. In its notice letter, Teva alleges that the ‘487 Patent, which covers a method of treatment using HETLIOZ®, is invalid, unenforceable and/or will not be infringed by Teva’s manufacture, use or sale of its generic version of HETLIOZ® as described in its ANDA. The Company intends to vigorously pursue a patent infringement lawsuit permanently enjoining Teva from infringing the claims of the ‘487 Patent.
Other Matters. In April 2018, the Company submitted a protocol amendment to the FDA, proposing a 52-week open-label extension (OLE) period for patients who had completed the tradipitant Phase II clinical study (2301) in gastroparesis. In May 2018, based on feedback from the FDA, the Company amended the protocol limiting the duration of treatment in the 2301 study to a total of three months, while continuing to seek further dialogue with the FDA on extending the study duration to 52-weeks. As a part of this negotiation process, in September 2018, the Company submitted a new follow-on 52-week OLE protocol to the FDA (2302) for patients who had completed the 2301 study. While waiting for further feedback, the Company did not enroll any patients in any study beyond 12 weeks. In December 2018, the FDA imposed a partial clinical hold (PCH) on the two proposed studies, stating that the Company is required first to conduct additional chronic toxicity studies in canines, monkeys or minipigs before allowing patients access in any clinical protocol beyond 12 weeks. The original PCH was not based on any safety or efficacy data related to tradipitant. Rather, the FDA informed the Company that these additional toxicity studies are required by a guidance document.
On February 5, 2019, the Company filed a lawsuit against the FDA in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (DC District Court), challenging the FDA’s legal authority to issue the PCH, and seeking an order to set it aside. In February 2019, the FDA filed a Motion for Voluntary Remand to the Agency and for a Stay of the Case. In March 2019, the DC District Court granted the FDA’s request for voluntary remand and returned the matter to the FDA for further consideration. In April 2019, the FDA provided its remand response, in which it indicated that, upon review of scientific literature and tradipitant data, it believes that a partial clinical hold continues to be appropriate until the Company has adequate safety data from a 9-month non-rodent toxicity study. After reviewing the FDA’s remand response, the Company continues to believe that additional chronic toxicity studies are unjustified, and that it has provided the FDA with sufficient information regarding the safety of tradipitant to justify the continued study of tradipitant in patients beyond 12 weeks, in accordance with applicable law and FDA regulations. In May 2019, the Company filed an amended complaint, and in July 2019, the Company filed a Motion for

Summary Judgment. The FDA filed a reply and cross-motion for summary judgment in October 2019. A hearing has been set for December 13, 2019. The Company intends to continue vigorously pursuing its interests in the matter.
In February 2019, a qui tam action filed against the Company was unsealed by order of the DC District Court. The qui tam action, which was filed under seal in March 2017, was brought by a former Company employee on behalf of the U.S., 28 states and the District of Columbia (collectively, the Plaintiff States) and the policyholders of certain insurance companies under the Federal False Claims Act and state law equivalents to the Federal False Claims Act and related state laws. The complaint alleged that the Company violated these laws through the promotion and marketing of its products Fanapt® and HETLIOZ® and sought, among other things, treble damages, civil penalties for each alleged false claim, and attorneys’ fees and costs. By virtue of the DC District Court having unsealed the original complaint, the Company learned that in January 2019, the U.S. Department of Justice (the DOJ), as well as the Plaintiff States, elected not to intervene in the qui tam action at that time. In May 2019, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint under seal repeating the same allegations and seeking the same relief. In August 2019, the Company filed a motion to dismiss, and in October 2019 the plaintiff filed a reply. According to a filing unsealed in June 2019, the DOJ reaffirmed its decision not to intervene and incorporated its prior filing, indicating that neither the DOJ nor the Plaintiff States were intervening regarding the original complaint. Although the DOJ and the Plaintiff States have elected not to intervene, the plaintiff may litigate this action and the DOJ and the Plaintiff States may later seek to intervene in the action. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in the case.
In February 2019, a securities class action, Gordon v. Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York naming the Company and certain of its officers as defendants. An amended complaint was filed in July 2019. The amended complaint, filed on behalf of a purported stockholder, asserts claims on behalf of a putative class of all persons who purchased the Company’s publicly traded securities between November 4, 2015 and February 11, 2019, for alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The amended complaint alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements and/or omissions regarding Fanapt®, HETLIOZ® and the Company’s interactions with the FDA regarding tradipitant between November 3, 2015 and February 11, 2019. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit. The Company does not anticipate that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition. However, this lawsuit is subject to inherent uncertainties, the actual cost may be significant, and the Company may not prevail. The Company believes it is entitled to coverage under its relevant insurance policies, subject to a retention, but coverage could be denied or prove to be insufficient.
In July 2019, a shareholder derivative complaint, Samuel Williams vs. Mihael Polymeropoulos, et al., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York naming certain current and former Company directors and officers as defendants. In September 2019, a shareholder derivative complaint, Michael Bavaro v. Mihael Polymeropoulos, et al., was filed in the Delaware District Court naming certain current and former Company directors and officers as defendants. In October 2019, the Company filed a motion to transfer the Bavaro case to the Eastern District of New York, where the Gordon and Williams cases are pending. These complaints, filed on behalf of purported stockholders, derivatively on behalf of the Company, assert claims for alleged breach of fiduciary duties by certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously defend these lawsuits. The Company does not anticipate that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition. However, these lawsuits are subject to inherent uncertainties, the actual cost may be significant, and the Company may not prevail. The Company believes it is entitled to coverage under its relevant insurance policies, subject to a retention, but coverage could be denied or prove to be insufficient.

ITEM 2
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. (we, our or Vanda) is a leading global biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies to address high unmet medical needs and improve the lives of patients. We commenced operations in 2003 and our product portfolio includes:
HETLIOZ® (tasimelteon), a product for the treatment of non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder (Non-24), was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2014 and launched commercially in the U.S. in April 2014. In July 2015, the European Commission (EC) granted centralized marketing authorization with unified labeling for HETLIOZ® for the treatment of Non-24 in totally blind adults. HETLIOZ® was commercially launched in Germany in August 2016. HETLIOZ® has potential utility in a number of other circadian rhythm disorders and is presently in clinical development for the treatment of Jet Lag Disorder, Smith-Magenis Syndrome (SMS) and pediatric Non-24. An assessment of new HETLIOZ® clinical opportunities including the treatment of delayed sleep phase disorder (DSPD) and for sleep disorders in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders is ongoing.
Fanapt® (iloperidone), a product for the treatment of schizophrenia, the oral formulation of which was approved by the FDA in May 2009 and launched commercially in the U.S. by Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis) in January 2010. Novartis transferred all the U.S. and Canadian commercial rights to the Fanapt® franchise to us on December 31, 2014. Additionally, our distribution partners launched Fanapt® in Israel in 2014. Fanapt® has potential utility in a number of other disorders. Initial clinical work studying a long acting injectable (LAI) formulation of Fanapt® began in 2018. An assessment of new Fanapt® clinical opportunities including the treatment of bipolar disorder is ongoing.
Tradipitant (VLY-686), a small molecule neurokinin-1 receptor (NK-1R) antagonist, which is presently in clinical development for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis, gastroparesis and motion sickness.
VTR-297, a small molecule histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor presently in clinical development for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.
Portfolio of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) activators and inhibitors. An early stage CFTR activator program is planned for the treatment of dry eye and ocular inflammation. In addition, an early stage CFTR inhibitor program is planned for the treatment of secretory diarrhea disorders, including cholera.
VQW-765, a Phase II alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor partial agonist.
Operational Highlights
Tradipitant
Enrollment in EPIONE, the Phase III clinical study of tradipitant in atopic dermatitis, is complete. Results from EPIONE are expected in the first quarter of 2020. 
In October 2019, EPIONE II, a second Phase III clinical study of tradipitant in atopic dermatitis, began enrolling patients.     
Enrollment in the Phase III study of tradipitant in gastroparesis is ongoing as Vanda continues to engage with the FDA on tradipitant’s regulatory path.
Vanda plans to initiate the Phase III program of tradipitant in motion sickness in the fourth quarter of 2019. Vanda expects to file a New Drug Application with the FDA for tradipitant for the treatment of motion sickness in 2020.
HETLIOZ® 
Vanda received a complete response letter (CRL) on August 16, 2019 from the FDA related to the supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) of HETLIOZ® for the treatment of Jet Lag Disorder. Vanda met with the FDA to discuss the CRL in a Post Action meeting and is determining its next steps.
Vanda plans to meet with the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2019 to discuss the HETLIOZ® SMS clinical study results and expects to submit an sNDA by year-end 2019.  
An observational study of DSPD is ongoing. Vanda plans to initiate a Phase III clinical study of HETLIOZ® in DSPD patients by year-end 2019.
Fanapt® 
A pharmacokinetic study for the once-a-month LAI formulation of Fanapt® is ongoing.
A study of Fanapt® in bipolar disorder is planned to begin by year-end 2019.

VTR-297
Enrollment in the Phase I clinical study (1101) of VTR-297 in hematologic malignancies is ongoing.
Corporate
Vanda announced the appointment of Anne Sempowski Ward to its Board of Directors, effective October 28, 2019, increasing the total number of members on the Board to six.
Vanda announced the hiring of Scott L. Howell as its Chief People Officer, Aranthan "AJ" Jones II as its Chief Corporate Affairs and Communications Officer and Joakim "Kim" Wijkstrom as its Chief Marketing Officer, further bolstering the executive leadership team.
Since we began operations, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the in-licensing, clinical development and commercialization of our products. Our ability to generate meaningful product sales and achieve profitability largely depends on our ability to successfully commercialize HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® in the U.S. and Europe, on our ability, alone or with others, to complete the development of our products, and to obtain the regulatory approvals for and to manufacture, market and sell our products. The results of our operations will vary significantly from year-to-year and quarter-to-quarter and depend on a number of factors, including risks related to our business, risks related to our industry, and other risks which are detailed in Risk Factors reported in Item 1A of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Item 1A of Part II of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
As described in Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have initiated lawsuits to enforce our patent rights against certain generic pharmaceutical companies.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
With the exception of the accounting related to our lease agreements as a result of adoption of the new lease accounting standard on January 1, 2019, there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies including estimates, assumptions and judgments from those described in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. A summary of our significant accounting policies appears in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. We believe that the following accounting policies are important to understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and we have accordingly included them in this discussion.
Leases. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019, we determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Right-of-use (ROU) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from that lease. For leases with a term greater than 12 months, ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease term includes the option to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain we will exercise that option. We do not combine lease and non-lease elements for office leases. For existing leases as of January 1, 2019, executory costs are excluded from lease expense, which is consistent with our accounting under ASC 840, Leases. For all leases entered into after January 1, 2019, executory costs are allocated between lease and non-lease elements based upon their relative stand-alone prices.

When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Our incremental borrowing rate is derived from information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Since we do not have outstanding debt that could provide an indication of the appropriate discount rate we used publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics when calculating our incremental borrowing rates. In making this estimation we considered market comparable data on companies with similar credit rating, secured contracts and contract length terms. We use the lease term to determine the incremental borrowing rate.

Net Product Sales. Our net product sales consist of sales of HETLIOZ® and sales of Fanapt®. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which we adopted January 1, 2018, we account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. We recognize revenue when control of the product is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those product sales, which is typically once the product physically arrives at the customer. Sales, value-added, and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues.
HETLIOZ® is available in the U.S. for distribution through a limited number of specialty pharmacies, and is not available in retail pharmacies. Fanapt® is available in the U.S. for distribution through a limited number of wholesalers and is available in retail pharmacies. We invoice and record revenue when customers, specialty pharmacies and wholesalers, receive product from the third-party logistics warehouse which is the point at which control is transferred to the customer. Revenues and accounts receivable are concentrated with these customers. Outside the U.S., we commercially launched HETLIOZ® in Germany in August 2016. We have also entered into a distribution agreement with Megapharm Ltd. for the commercialization of Fanapt® in Israel.
The transaction price is determined based upon the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange for transferring product to the customer. Our product sales are recorded net of applicable discounts, rebates, chargebacks, service fees, co-pay assistance and product returns that are applicable for various government and commercial payors. We estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing the most likely amount method and update our estimate at each reporting date.
Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in our judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. Reserves for variable consideration for rebates, chargebacks and co-pay assistance are based upon the insurance benefits of the end customer, which are estimated using historical activity and, where available, actual and pending prescriptions for which we have validated the insurance benefits. Reserves for variable consideration are classified as product revenue allowances on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with the exception of prompt-pay discounts which are classified as reductions of accounts receivable. The reserve for product returns for which the product may not be returned for a period of greater than one year from the balance sheet date is classified as other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Uncertainties related to variable consideration are generally resolved in the quarter subsequent to period end, with the exception of product returns which are resolved during the product expiry period specified in the customer contract. We currently record sales allowances for the following:
Prompt-pay: Specialty pharmacies and wholesalers are offered discounts for prompt payment. We expect that the specialty pharmacies and wholesalers will earn prompt payment discounts and, therefore, deduct the full amount of these discounts from total product sales when revenues are recognized.
Rebates: Allowances for rebates include mandated and supplemental discounts under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program as well as contracted rebate programs with other payors. Rebate amounts owed after the final dispensing of the product to a benefit plan participant are based upon contractual agreements or legal requirements with public sector benefit providers, such as Medicaid. The allowance for rebates is based on statutory or contracted discount rates and expected patient utilization.
Chargebacks: Chargebacks are discounts that occur when contracted indirect customers purchase directly from specialty pharmacies and wholesalers. Contracted indirect customers, which currently consist primarily of Public Health Service institutions, non-profit clinics, and Federal government entities purchasing via the Federal Supply Schedule, generally purchase the product at a discounted price. The specialty pharmacy or wholesaler, in turn, charges back the difference between the price initially paid by the specialty pharmacy or wholesaler and the discounted price paid to the specialty pharmacy or wholesaler by the contracted customer.
Medicare Part D Coverage Gap: Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit mandates manufacturers to fund approximately 50% of the Medicare Part D insurance coverage gap for prescription drugs sold to eligible patients through 2018. Public Law No. 115-123, also known as the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 enacted on February 9, 2018 increased the manufacturer discount from 50% to 70% effective on January 1, 2019 for applicable drugs. We account for the Medicare Part D coverage gap using a point of sale model. Estimates for expected Medicare Part D coverage gap are based in part on historical activity and, where available, actual and pending prescriptions for which we have validated the insurance benefits.
Service Fees: We receive sales order management, data and distribution services from certain customers. These fees are based on contracted terms and are known amounts. We accrue service fees at the time of revenue recognition, resulting in a reduction of product sales and the recognition of an accrued liability, unless it is a payment for a distinct good or service

from the customer in which case the fair value of those distinct goods or services are recorded as selling, general and administrative expense.
Co-payment Assistance: Patients who have commercial insurance and meet certain eligibility requirements may receive co-payment assistance. Co-pay assistance utilization is based on information provided by our third-party administrator.
Product Returns: Consistent with industry practice, we generally offer direct customers a limited right to return as defined within our returns policy. We consider several factors in the estimation process, including historical return activity, expiration dates of product shipped to specialty pharmacies, inventory levels within the distribution channel, product shelf life, prescription trends and other relevant factors. We do not expect returned goods to be resalable. There was no right of return asset as of September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

The provision of $44.5 million for rebates and chargebacks for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily represents Medicaid rebates applicable to sales of Fanapt® and HETLIOZ®. The provision of $19.9 million for discounts, returns and other for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily represents wholesaler distribution fees applicable to sales of Fanapt® and, to a lesser extent, co-pay assistance costs and prompt pay discounts applicable to the sales of both HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® as well as estimated product returns of Fanapt®.
Stock-based compensation. Compensation costs for all stock-based awards to employees and directors are measured based on the grant date fair value of those awards and recognized over the period during which the employee or director is required to perform service in exchange for the award. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options. The determination of the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using an option pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include the expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. Expected volatility rates are based on the historical volatility of our publicly traded common stock and other factors. The risk-free interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. We have not paid dividends to our stockholders since our inception (other than a dividend of preferred share purchase rights which was declared in September 2008) and do not plan to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses consist primarily of fees for services provided by third parties in connection with the clinical trials, costs of contract manufacturing services for clinical trial use, milestone payments made under licensing agreements prior to regulatory approval, costs of materials used in clinical trials and research and development, costs for regulatory consultants and filings, depreciation of capital resources used to develop products, related facilities costs, and salaries, other employee-related costs and stock-based compensation for research and development personnel. We expense research and development costs as they are incurred for products in the development stage, including manufacturing costs and milestone payments made under license agreements prior to FDA approval. Upon and subsequent to FDA approval, manufacturing and milestone payments made under license agreements are capitalized. Milestone payments are accrued when it is deemed probable that the milestone event will be achieved. Costs related to the acquisition of intellectual property are expensed as incurred if the underlying technology is developed in connection with our research and development efforts and has no alternative future use.
Clinical trials are inherently complex, often involve multiple service providers, and can include payments made to investigator physicians at study sites. Because billing for services often lags delivery of service by a substantial amount of time, we often are required to estimate a significant portion of our accrued clinical expenses. Our assessments include, but are not limited to:

(i) an evaluation by the project manager of the work that has been completed during the period, (ii) measurement of progress prepared internally and/or provided by the third-party service provider, (iii) analyses of data that justify the progress, and (iv) management’s judgment. In the event that we do not identify certain costs that have begun to be incurred or we under- or over-estimate the level of services performed or the costs of such services, our reported expenses for such period would be too low or too high.
Intangible Assets. Our intangible assets consist of capitalized license costs for products approved by the FDA. We amortize our intangible assets on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful economic life of the related product patents. We assess the impairment of intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important, which could trigger an impairment review, include significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, a significant adverse change in legal or regulatory factors that could affect the value or patent life including our ability to defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights and significant negative industry or economic trends. When we determine that the carrying value of our intangible assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the indicators of impairment, we measure any impairment based on the amount that carrying value exceeds fair value. No impairments have been recognized on our intangible assets.
Income taxes. We assess the need for a valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset each quarter through the review of all available positive and negative evidence. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a tax valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2018, there was a full tax valuation allowance against all deferred tax assets in the U.S. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, after considering all available positive and negative evidence, including but not limited to cumulative income in recent periods, historical and current projected results, and significant risks and uncertainties related to forecasts, we concluded that it was more likely than not that substantially all of our deferred taxes are realizable in future periods. Tax benefits are recognized from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit recognized in the financial statements for a particular tax position is based on the largest benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Summary of Significant Accounting Policies footnote to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for information on recent accounting pronouncements.
Results of Operations
We anticipate that our results of operations will fluctuate for the foreseeable future due to several factors, including our and our partners’ ability to successfully commercialize our products, any possible payments made or received pursuant to license or collaboration agreements, progress of our research and development efforts, the timing and outcome of clinical trials and related possible regulatory approvals. Since our inception, we have incurred significant losses resulting in an accumulated deficit of $224.9 million as of September 30, 2019. Our total stockholders’ equity was $400.9 million as of September 30, 2019.
Three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to three months ended September 30, 2018
Revenues. Total revenues increased by $10.4 million, or 21%, to $59.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $49.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Revenues were as follows:

Fanapt® product sales, net increased by $2.7 million, or 14%, to $21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $19.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase to net product sales was attributable to an increase in price net of deductions.
Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold increased by $1.7 million, or 34%, to $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Cost of goods sold includes third party manufacturing costs of product sold, third party royalty costs and distribution and other costs. Third party royalty costs were 10% and 5% of net product sales of HETLIOZ® in the U.S. and Germany, respectively, and 9% of net product sales of Fanapt®. Third party royalty costs on net product sales of Fanapt® will decrease to 6% beginning January 2020.
In addition to third party royalty costs, HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue depends upon our cost to manufacture inventory at normalized production levels with our third party manufacturers. We expect that, in the future, total HETLIOZ® manufacturing costs included in cost of goods sold will continue to be less than 2% of our net product sales of HETLIOZ®. We expect that, in the future, total Fanapt® manufacturing costs included in cost of goods sold will continue to be less than 3% of our net product sales of Fanapt®.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were $11.3 million and $11.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in clinical trial expenses associated with our HETLIOZ® and tradipitant development programs were offset by an increase in clinical trial expenses associated with our Fanapt® development programs as well as an increase in stock-based compensation expense. The following table summarizes the costs of our product development initiatives for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

We record direct costs, including personnel costs and related benefits, on a project-by-project basis. Many of our research and development costs are not attributable to any individual project because we share resources across several development projects. We record indirect costs that support a number of our research and development activities in the aggregate, including stock-based compensation.
We expect to incur significant research and development expenses as we continue to develop our products. In addition, we expect to incur licensing costs in the future that could be substantial, as we continue our efforts to expand our product pipeline.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $4.2 million, or 16%, to $30.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $26.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily the result of increased spending on corporate and legal related activities and investment in U.S. commercial capabilities.
Intangible asset amortization. Intangible asset amortization was $0.4 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Other income. Other income was $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Other income primarily relates to investment income on our marketable securities.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded income tax benefit of $88.1 million and income tax expense of $0.1 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to the reduction of our tax valuation allowance against substantially all of our deferred tax assets in the U.S. Net income tax benefit of $1.6 million was also recorded related to the generation of 2019 research and development and orphan drug credits, current taxes payable to certain U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions and uncertain tax positions. As a result of the tax valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in the U.S., there was no expense (benefit) for federal income taxes associated with the income before taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Income taxes were recorded related to certain U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

The increase to net product sales was attributable to an increase in volume and an increase in price net of deductions.
Fanapt® product sales, net increased by $5.2 million, or 9%, to $61.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $56.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase to net product sales was attributable to an increase in price net of deductions.
Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold increased by $3.4 million, or 23%, to $18.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $14.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Cost of goods sold includes third party manufacturing costs of product sold, third party royalty costs and distribution and other costs. Third party royalty costs were 10% and 5% of net product sales of HETLIOZ® in the U.S. and Germany, respectively, and 9% of net product sales of Fanapt®. Third party royalty costs on net product sales of Fanapt® will decrease to 6% beginning January 2020.
In addition to third party royalty costs, HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue depends upon our cost to manufacture inventory at normalized production levels with our third party manufacturers. We expect that, in the future, total HETLIOZ® manufacturing costs included in cost of goods sold will continue to be less than 2% of our net product sales of HETLIOZ®. We expect that, in the future, total Fanapt® manufacturing costs included in cost of goods sold will continue to be less than 3% of our net product sales of Fanapt®.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $4.9 million, or 16%, to $35.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $30.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in clinical trial expenses associated with our tradipitant and Fanapt® development programs and preclinical expenses associated with the CFTR programs as well as an increase in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a decrease in expenses associated with the HETLIOZ® development programs. The following table summarizes the costs of our product development initiatives for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

We record direct costs, including personnel costs and related benefits, on a project-by-project basis. Many of our research and development costs are not attributable to any individual project because we share resources across several development projects. We record indirect costs that support a number of our research and development activities in the aggregate, including stock-based compensation.
We expect to incur significant research and development expenses as we continue to develop our products. In addition, we expect to incur licensing costs in the future that could be substantial, as we continue our efforts to expand our product pipeline.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $11.9 million, or 15%, to $92.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $80.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily the result of increased spending on corporate and legal related activities and investment in U.S. commercial capabilities.
Intangible asset amortization. Intangible asset amortization was $1.1 million for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018.
Other income. Other income was $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Other income primarily relates to investment income on our marketable securities.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded income tax benefit of $88.1 million and income tax expense of $0.2 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to the reduction of our tax valuation allowance against substantially all of our deferred tax assets in the U.S. Net income tax benefit of $1.6 million was also recorded related to the generation of 2019 research and development and orphan drug credits, current taxes payable to certain U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions and uncertain tax positions. As a result of the tax valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in the U.S., there was no expense (benefit) for federal income taxes associated with the income before taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Income taxes were recorded related to certain U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2019, our total cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities (Cash) was $299.6 million compared to $257.4 million at December 31, 2018. Our cash and cash equivalents are deposits in operating accounts and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at date of purchase and consist of investments in money market funds with commercial banks and financial institutions, government agencies and commercial paper of high-quality corporate issuers. Our marketable securities consist of investments in government sponsored and corporate enterprises, commercial paper and asset-backed securities.

As of September 30, 2019, we maintained all of our Cash in two financial institutions. Deposits held with these institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits, but we do not anticipate any losses with respect to such deposits.
We expect to incur substantial costs and expenses throughout the remainder of 2019 and beyond in connection with our continued clinical development of tradipitant and our other products, U.S. commercial activities for HETLIOZ® and Fanapt®, the European commercial launch activities for HETLIOZ® and payments due upon achievement of milestones under our license agreements. Additionally, we continue to pursue market approval of HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® in other regions. The actual costs to advance tradipitant and our research and development projects and commercial activities for HETLIOZ® and Fanapt® may vary significantly. We believe that the upcoming activities associated with our tradipitant and other development programs will result in an increase in research and development expenses in the near term. We believe that our existing funds will be sufficient to meet our operating plans for at least the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, primarily including our ability to generate revenue, the scope and costs of our commercial, manufacturing and process development activities, the magnitude of our discovery, preclinical and clinical development programs, and potential costs to acquire or license the rights to additional products.
We may need or desire to obtain additional capital to finance our operations through debt, equity or alternative financing arrangements. We may also seek capital through collaborations or partnerships with other companies. The issuance of debt could require us to grant liens on certain of our assets that may limit our flexibility and debt securities may be convertible into common stock. If we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, the terms and prices for these financings may be much more favorable to the new investors than the terms obtained by our existing stockholders. These financings also may significantly dilute the ownership of our existing stockholders. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our future activities which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. There can be no assurance that any additional financing required in the future will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

The increase of $21.4 million in net cash provided by operating activities reflects an increase of $13.0 million from the net change in operating assets and liabilities and an increase of $96.5 million in net income, partially offset by a decrease of $88.0 million in non-cash charges primarily due to the reduction of our tax valuation allowance against substantially all of our deferred tax assets in the U.S. during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase of $13.0 million from the net change in operating assets and liabilities primarily relates to a decrease in accounts receivable attributable to the timing of shipments and payments and an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities attributable to the timing of activities and payments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $21.8 million includes net reinvestment of $61.1 million of available cash and cash equivalents in our portfolio of marketable securities.

ITEM 3
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest rate risks
Our exposure to market risk is currently confined to our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. We have not used derivative financial instruments for speculation or trading purposes. Because of the short-term maturities of our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, we do not believe that an increase in market rates would have any significant impact on the realized value of our investments.
Concentrations of credit risk
We deposit our cash with financial institutions that we consider to be of high credit quality and purchase marketable securities which are generally investment grade, liquid, short-term fixed income securities and money-market instruments denominated in U.S. dollars. Our marketable securities consist of certificates of deposit, commercial paper, corporate notes, asset-backed securities and U.S. government agency notes.
Revenues and accounts receivable are concentrated with specialty pharmacies and wholesalers. There were five major customers that each accounted for more than 10% of total revenues and, as a group, represented 96% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. There were five major customers that each accounted for more than 10% of accounts receivable and, as a group, represented 93% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2019. We mitigate our credit risk relating to accounts receivable from customers by performing ongoing credit evaluations.
Foreign currency risk
We are exposed to risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates relating to our foreign operations. The functional currency of our international subsidiaries is the local currency. We are exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that we

36

Table of Contents

enter into transactions denominated in currencies other than our subsidiaries’ respective functional currencies. We are also exposed to unfavorable fluctuations of the U.S. dollar, which is our reporting currency, against the currencies of our operating subsidiaries when their respective financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars for inclusion in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not currently hedge our foreign currency exchange rate risk. Foreign currency has not had a material impact on our results of operations.
Effects of inflation
Inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations.

ITEM 4
Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act)) as of September 30, 2019. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of September 30, 2019, the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the third quarter of 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1
Legal Proceedings
Fanapt®. We have been involved in litigation with Roxane Laboratories, Inc. (Roxane) and its affiliates, West-Ward Pharmaceuticals International Limited and West-Ward Pharmaceuticals Corp (West-Ward), since we filed a lawsuit against Roxane in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (Delaware District Court) for patent infringement in June 2014. The lawsuit was filed in response to Roxane’s submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for a generic version of Fanapt® prior to the expiration of certain of our patents covering Fanapt®, including U.S. Patent No. 8,586,610 (‘610 Patent). In August 2016, the Delaware District Court ruled in our favor, permanently enjoining Roxane from manufacturing, using, selling, offering to sell, distributing or importing any generic iloperidone product described in Roxane’s ANDA until the expiration of the ‘610 Patent in November 2027, or May 2028 if we obtain pediatric exclusivity. In April 2018, following an appeal by Roxane of the Delaware District Court’s decision to the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals (Federal Circuit), the Federal Circuit affirmed the Delaware District Court’s ruling. In June 2018, West-Ward, having replaced Roxane as defendants following the acquisition of Roxane by West-Ward’s parent company, Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC, petitioned the Federal Circuit for a rehearing en banc. In August 2018, the Federal Circuit denied West-Ward's petition. In January 2019, West-Ward filed a petition in the U.S. Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari seeking reversal of the Federal Circuit’s decision. In March 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court invited the Solicitor General of the U.S. to file a brief in the matter expressing the views of the U.S.
In 2015, we filed six separate patent infringement lawsuits in the Delaware District Court against Roxane, Inventia Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. (Inventia), Lupin Ltd. and Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Lupin), Taro Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. and Taro Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd. (Taro), and Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp. (Apotex, and collectively with Roxane, Inventia, Lupin and Taro, the Fanapt® Defendants). These lawsuits were filed in response to the submission to the FDA by each of the Fanapt® Defendants of ANDAs for generic versions of Fanapt® prior to the expiration of the ‘610 Patent in November 2027 or the U.S. Patent No. 9,138,432 in September 2025. We entered into separate confidential stipulations with each of Inventia and

37

Table of Contents

Lupin regarding any potential launch of their generic versions of Fanapt®. The remaining lawsuits against the other Fanapt® Defendants have been stayed until 14 days after final disposition by the U.S. Supreme Court of the petition for a writ of certiorari filed by West-Ward.
HETLIOZ®. In April and May 2018, we filed three separate patent infringement lawsuits in the Delaware District Court against Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva), MSN Pharmaceuticals Inc. and MSN Laboratories Private Limited (MSN) and Apotex (collectively with Teva and MSN, the HETLIOZ® Defendants) after having received Paragraph IV certification notice letters (Paragraph IV Letters) from each of the HETLIOZ® Defendants alleging that certain of our patents covering HETLIOZ® (collectively, the HETLIOZ® Patents) were invalid, unenforceable and/or would not be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of their generic versions of HETLIOZ®, as described in the ANDAs submitted to the FDA by each of the HETLIOZ® Defendants, prior to the expiration of the latest to expire of the HETLIOZ® Patents in 2034. Each of the HETLIOZ® Patents are listed in the Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations (Orange Book). In December 2018, we filed amended complaints against each of the HETLIOZ® Defendants following the receipt of additional Paragraph IV Letters from Teva and Apotex concerning our Orange Book listed '977 Patent, which expires in 2035. These lawsuits are scheduled for trial in October 2020.
In March 2019, April 2019, and May 2019, we filed three additional patent infringement lawsuits in the Delaware District Court against the HETLIOZ® Defendants following the receipt of additional Paragraph IV Letters from each concerning our Orange Book listed U.S. Patent No. 10,149,829, which expires in 2033. A trial date has not yet been scheduled for these lawsuits.
In October 2019, we received an additional Paragraph IV certification notice letter from Teva concerning our Orange Book listed U.S. Patent No. 10,376,487 ('487 Patent), which expires in July 2035. In its notice letter, Teva alleges that the ‘487 Patent, which covers a method of treatment using HETLIOZ®, is invalid, unenforceable and/or will not be infringed by Teva’s manufacture, use or sale of its generic version of HETLIOZ® as described in our ANDA. We intend to vigorously pursue a patent infringement lawsuit permanently enjoining Teva from infringing the claims of the ‘487 Patent.
Other Matters. In April 2018, we submitted a protocol amendment to the FDA, proposing a 52-week open-label extension (OLE) period for patients who had completed the tradipitant Phase II clinical study (2301) in gastroparesis. In May 2018, based on feedback from the FDA, we amended the protocol limiting the duration of treatment in the 2301 study to a total of three months, while continuing to seek further dialogue with the FDA on extending the study duration to 52-weeks. As a part of this negotiation process, in September 2018, we submitted a new follow-on 52-week OLE protocol to the FDA (2302) for patients who had completed the 2301 study. While waiting for further feedback, we did not enroll any patients in any study beyond 12 weeks. In December 2018, the FDA imposed a partial clinical hold (PCH) on the two proposed studies, stating that we are required first to conduct additional chronic toxicity studies in canines, monkeys or minipigs before allowing patients access in any clinical protocol beyond 12 weeks. The original PCH was not based on any safety or efficacy data related to tradipitant. Rather, the FDA informed us that these additional toxicity studies are required by a guidance document.
On February 5, 2019, we filed a lawsuit against the FDA in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (DC District Court), challenging the FDA’s legal authority to issue the PCH, and seeking an order to set it aside. In February 2019, the FDA filed a Motion for Voluntary Remand to the Agency and for a Stay of the Case. In March 2019, the DC District Court granted the FDA’s request for voluntary remand and returned the matter to the FDA for further consideration. In April 2019, the FDA provided its remand response, in which it indicated that, upon review of scientific literature and tradipitant data, it believes that a partial clinical hold continues to be appropriate until we have adequate safety data from a 9-month non-rodent toxicity study. After reviewing the FDA’s remand response, we continue to believe that additional chronic toxicity studies are unjustified, and that we have provided the FDA with sufficient information regarding the safety of tradipitant to justify the continued study of tradipitant in patients beyond 12 weeks, in accordance with applicable law and FDA regulations. In May 2019, we filed an amended complaint, and in July 2019, we filed a Motion for Summary Judgment. The FDA filed a reply and cross-motion for summary judgment in October 2019. A hearing has been set for December 13, 2019. We intend to continue vigorously pursuing our interests in the matter.
In February 2019, a qui tam action filed against us was unsealed by order of the DC District Court. The qui tam action, which was filed under seal in March 2017, was brought by a former employee of ours on behalf of the U.S., 28 states and the District of Columbia (collectively, the Plaintiff States) and the policyholders of certain insurance companies under the Federal False Claims Act and state law equivalents to the Federal False Claims Act and related state laws. The complaint alleged that we violated these laws through the promotion and marketing of our products Fanapt® and HETLIOZ® and sought, among other things, treble damages, civil penalties for each alleged false claim, and attorneys’ fees and costs. By virtue of the DC District Court having unsealed the original complaint, the Company learned that in January 2019, the U.S. Department of Justice (the DOJ), as well as the Plaintiff States, elected not to intervene in the qui tam action at that time. In May 2019, the plaintiff filed

38

Table of Contents

an amended complaint under seal repeating the same allegations and seeking the same relief. In August 2019, we filed a motion to dismiss, and in October 2019 the plaintiff filed a reply. According to a filing unsealed in June 2019, the DOJ reaffirmed its decision not to intervene and incorporated its prior filing, indicating that neither the DOJ nor the Plaintiff States were intervening regarding the original complaint. Although the DOJ and the Plaintiff States have elected not to intervene, the plaintiff may litigate this action and the DOJ and the Plaintiff States may later seek to intervene in the action. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves in the case.
In February 2019, a securities class action, Gordon v. Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York naming us and certain of our officers as defendants. An amended complaint was filed in July 2019. The amended complaint, filed on behalf of a purported stockholder, asserts claims on behalf of a putative class of all persons who purchased our publicly traded securities between November 4, 2015 and February 11, 2019, for alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The amended complaint alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements and/or omissions regarding Fanapt®, HETLIOZ® and our interactions with the FDA regarding tradipitant between November 3, 2015 and February 11, 2019. We believe that we have meritorious defenses and intend to vigorously defend this lawsuit. We do not anticipate that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. However, this lawsuit is subject to inherent uncertainties, the actual cost may be significant, and we may not prevail. We believe we are entitled to coverage under our relevant insurance policies, subject to a retention, but coverage could be denied or prove to be insufficient.
In July 2019, a shareholder derivative complaint, Samuel Williams vs. Mihael Polymeropoulos, et al., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York naming certain of our current and former ofdirectors and officers as defendants. In September 2019, a shareholder derivative complaint, Michael Bavaro v. Mihael Polymeropoulos, et al., was filed in the Delaware District Court naming certain of our current and former directors and officers as defendants. In October 2019, we filed a motion to transfer the Bavaro case to the Eastern District of New York, where the Gordon and Williams cases are pending. These complaints, filed on behalf of purported stockholders, derivatively on our behalf, assert claims for alleged breach of fiduciary duties by certain of our current and former directors and officers. We believe that we have meritorious defenses and intend to vigorously defend these lawsuits. We do not anticipate that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. However, these lawsuits are subject to inherent uncertainties, the actual cost may be significant, and we may not prevail. We believe we are entitled to coverage under our relevant insurance policies, subject to a retention, but coverage could be denied or prove to be insufficient.
ITEM 1A
Risk Factors
We previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 19, 2019, important factors which could affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future operations under the heading Risk Factors. Our business, financial condition and operating results can be affected by a number of factors, whether current known or unknown, including but not limited to those described as risk factors, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual operating results and financial condition to vary materially from past, or anticipated future, operating results and financial condition. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and the price of our common stock. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors subsequent to the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
If the FDA does not accept for filing the NDAs that we may submit for tradipitant for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis, the treatment of gastroparesis and the treatment of motion sickness, regulatory authorities determine that our clinical trial results for tradipitant for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis, the treatment of gastroparesis or the treatment of motion sickness do not demonstrate adequate safety and efficacy, or the FDA does not approve an applicable PDUFA-VI date, continued development of tradipitant will be significantly delayed or terminated, our business will be significantly harmed, and the market price of our stock could decline.
We announced the results in September 2017 from a randomized Phase II clinical study of tradipitant as a monotherapy in the treatment of chronic pruritus in patients with atopic dermatitis. Tradipitant was shown to improve the intensity of the worst itch patients experienced, as well as atopic dermatitis disease severity.
We announced results in December 2018 from a randomized clinical study (2301) of tradipitant as a monotherapy in the treatment of gastroparesis. Tradipitant met the primary endpoint of the study of change in nausea score as measured by patient daily diaries and also met the related endpoint of improvement in the number of nausea free days. Tradipitant also showed significant improvement in most of the secondary endpoints studied, including the several key scales reflecting overall

gastroparesis symptoms, specifically Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI); Patient Assessment of Gastrointestinal Disorders Symptom Severity Index (PAGI-SYM); Clinical Global Impression Severity (CGI-S); and Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C).
We announced the results in July 2019 from a randomized Phase II clinical study of tradipitant as a monotherapy in the treatment of motion sickness, which demonstrated that tradipitant was effective in treating motion sickness. The study had two primary endpoints: percentage of participants vomiting, and Motion Sickness Severity Scale (MSSS) Worst score. In the overall population, a significantly higher percentage of participants experienced vomiting in the placebo arm as compared to the tradipitant arm. The MSSS Worst score endpoint also favored tradipitant, but the difference did not reach statistical significance.
If the results of our ongoing Phase III clinical study of tradipitant for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis and/or our ongoing Phase III clinical study of tradipitant for the treatment of gastroparesis and/or our planned Phase III clinical study of tradipitant for the treatment of motion sickness are positive, we will likely submit an NDA with the FDA for these indications. Any adverse developments or results or perceived adverse developments or results with respect to our pre-NDA meeting with the FDA, our regulatory submission or the tradipitant clinical programs in either or both indications will significantly harm our business and could cause the market price of our stock to decline. Examples of such adverse developments include, but are not limited to:
the FDA determining that additional clinical studies are required with respect to the tradipitant for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis and/or the treatment of gastroparesis and/or motion sickness;
safety, efficacy or other concerns arising from clinical or non-clinical studies in these programs; or
the FDA determining that the tradipitant clinical trial programs raise safety concerns or do not demonstrate adequate efficacy.
In April 2018, we submitted a protocol amendment to the FDA, proposing a 52-week open-label extension (OLE) period for patients who had completed the tradipitant Phase II clinical study (2301) in gastroparesis. In May 2018, based on feedback from the FDA, we amended the protocol limiting the duration of treatment in the 2301 study to a total of three months, while continuing to seek further dialogue with the FDA on extending the study duration to 52-weeks. As a part of this negotiation process, in September 2018, we submitted a new follow-on 52-week OLE protocol to the FDA (2302) for patients who had completed the 2301 study. While waiting for further feedback, we did not enroll any patients in any study beyond 12 weeks. In December 2018, the FDA imposed a partial clinical hold (PCH) on the two proposed studies, stating that we are required first to conduct additional chronic toxicity studies in canines, monkeys or minipigs before allowing patients access in any clinical protocol beyond 12 weeks. The original PCH was not based on any safety or efficacy data related to tradipitant. Rather, the FDA informed us that these additional toxicity studies are required by a guidance document.
On February 5, 2019, we filed a lawsuit against the FDA in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (DC District Court), challenging the FDA’s legal authority to issue the PCH, and seeking an order to set it aside. In February 2019, the FDA filed a Motion for Voluntary Remand to the Agency and for a Stay of the Case. In March 2019, the DC District Court granted the FDA’s request for voluntary remand and returned the matter to the FDA for further consideration. In April 2019, the FDA provided its remand response, in which it indicated that, upon review of scientific literature and tradipitant data, it believes that a partial clinical hold continues to be appropriate until we have adequate safety data from a 9-month non-rodent toxicity study. After reviewing the FDA’s remand response, we continue to believe that additional chronic toxicity studies are unjustified, and that we have provided the FDA with sufficient information regarding the safety of tradipitant to justify the continued study of tradipitant in patients beyond 12 weeks, in accordance with applicable law and FDA regulations. In May 2019, we filed an amended complaint, and in July 2019, we filed a Motion for Summary Judgment. The FDA filed a reply and cross-motion for summary judgment in October 2019. A hearing has been set for December 13, 2019. We intend to continue vigorously pursuing our interests in the matter.
We do not expect the PCH to have any impact on our ongoing clinical studies in atopic dermatitis and gastroparesis, each of which is under 12 weeks in duration, or our planned Phase III study in motion sickness, none of which are subject to the PCH. Nor do we expect the PCH to impact the potential timing of an NDA filing. If the matter has not been fully resolved prior to the date on which we are ready to file the first NDA for tradipitant, then we may choose to file with the safety data we have available at that time. We may pursue additional studies of durations in excess of 12 weeks in countries where the conduct of such studies may be permitted (or we may choose to file for approval of a limited indication). If the FDA determines that our NDA does not contain safety data sufficient for approval, it may not accept the NDA for filing. We will continue to reassess the situation as events unfold.

Even if our lawsuit challenging the FDA’s authority to issue the PCH is successful, there can be no assurances that the FDA will not attempt to impose a clinical hold or PCH on other grounds. While we believe we have a strong legal basis, this litigation is subject to uncertainties and we may not prevail. Because the PCH could, however, impede our ability to conduct longer term studies of tradipitant, whether the PCH impacts the timing or approvability of NDA filings with the FDA for any indication will depend on a number of factors, including whether the PCH is resolved through the lawsuit described above, whether we resolve the PCH out of court through discussions with the FDA, and, in addition to the non-clinical animal studies, whether the FDA considers the clinical trials that we conduct to be sufficient. A delay in filing, or FDA delay or denial of approval, of NDA filings for tradipitant for the treatment of chronic pruritus in atopic dermatitis, gastroparesis or motion sickness could materially adversely impact our business.
