Impairment Charge

Note 7 – Impairment Charge

During the three months ended December 31, 2019, the Company determined that the intangible asset related to Edge’s NEWTON 2 clinical trial for EG-1962 was impaired  due  to  significantly reduced activity in the data room and a lack of new interest from third parties to purchase or license the product. Further the Company does not have the internal resources to pursue EG 1962 as an internal development project and has stated publicly that it had intended to find a partner to fund and run the EG 1962 program.  The drop off in interest from third parties and the lack of any new inbound interest has made this an extremely low probability of success. As a result for the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded an impairment charge - IPR&D of $2,974,000 for the estimated value of the IPR&D asset of $2,974,000 in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
