1.  Interim Financial Statements

Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. develops innovative medicines for oncology. Our clinical development efforts center on late-stage oncology assets. We are conducting a phase 2 clinical trial of our therapeutic candidate for prostate cancer, PSMA ADC, a fully human monoclonal antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), and have recently completed a phase 2 trial of 1404 (trofolastat), an imaging agent candidate also for prostate cancer. We are resuming a pivotal phase 2 clinical trial of Azedra™, our ultra-orphan radiotherapy candidate for pheochromocytoma.

We have licensed our first commercial drug, Relistor® (methylnaltrexone bromide) subcutaneous injection for the treatment of opioid induced constipation (OIC), to Salix Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which in September 2014 received an expanded approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of OIC in patients taking opioids for chronic non-cancer pain. We have partnered other internally-developed or acquired compounds and technologies with third parties. We continue to consider opportunities for strategic collaborations, out-licenses and other arrangements with biopharmaceutical companies involving proprietary research, development and clinical programs, and may in the future also in-license or acquire additional oncology compounds and/or programs.

We fund our operations to a significant extent from capital-raising. Early this year, we raised $37.5 million in an underwritten public offering of 8.75 million shares of common stock, and entered into an agreement with an investment bank under which we may sell from time to time up to $50 million of our stock. Our current principal sources of revenue from operations are royalty, milestone and revenue-sharing payments from Salix's development and commercialization of Relistor.

Progenics commenced principal operations in 1988, became publicly traded in 1997 and throughout has been engaged primarily in research and development efforts, establishing corporate collaborations and related activities. Certain of our intellectual property rights are held by wholly owned subsidiaries. All of our operations are conducted at our facilities in Tarrytown, New York. We operate under a single research and development segment.

Funding and Financial Matters. At September 30, 2014 we held $85.23 million in cash and cash equivalents, a $0.12 million decrease from the second quarter-end, and a $19.37 million increase from $65.86 million at 2013 year-end. We expect that this amount will be sufficient to fund operations as currently anticipated beyond one year. We expect to require additional funding in the future, the availability of which is never guaranteed and may be uncertain. We expect that we may continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable near future.

Our interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report have been prepared in accordance with applicable presentation requirements, and accordingly do not include all information and disclosures necessary for a presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Our interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data in these financial statements were derived from audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior periods' financial statements to conform to the current presentation. This includes the reclassification of (i) certain expenses for share-based compensation from research and development to general and administrative expenses and (ii) certain non-cash items from general and administrative expenses to intangible impairment charges and change in contingent consideration liability, which reclassifications had no effect on total expenses as previously reported.
