Manufacturing Facility

On July 31, 2018, the Company completed its purchase of a 135,000 square foot manufacturing facility located in Smithfield, Rhode Island for a purchase price of $8.0 million. In August 2018, the Company began renovations to customize this facility to manufacture clinical supply of its product candidates. Of the total purchase price, $1.3 million was allocated to the value of land acquired based on the value of comparable assets, and $6.7 million was allocated to construction in progress, as the building was not ready for its intended use.

Construction-in-progress capitalized to date totaled $17.3 million.

In addition, the Company capitalized interest of $0.3 million and personnel-related costs of $1.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and to date during the construction period.
