Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Principles Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
of Pharmacyclics, Inc. (the "company" or "Pharmacyclics")
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not contain all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the
accompanying unaudited, condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the company's interim financial information. These financial
statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements of the company included in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended June 30, 2000 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on September 27, 2000. The results of operations for the three and six months ended
December 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that
may be reported for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2001 or for any other future
period. Revenue Recognition License fees are recognized as revenue when earned over
the period of the arrangement, as evidenced by achievement of the specified
milestones and the absence of any ongoing performance obligation. Contract
revenue is recognized as earned, primarily based on costs incurred to total
estimated costs at completion, pursuant to the terms of each agreement. License
and contract revenues are not subject to repayment. Any amounts received in
advance of performance are recorded as deferred revenue. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are expensed as incurred
and include costs associated with contract research performed pursuant to
collaborative agreements. Research and development costs consist of direct and
indirect internal costs related to specific projects as well as fees paid to
other entities which conduct certain research activities on behalf of the
company. Cash Equivalents and Investments All highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity date of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
The company has classified all its investments as "available-for-
sale." Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are
included in other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses on securities
sold are recorded based on the specific identification method and are included
in interest and other income (expense), net in the statements of operations.
Note 2 - Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings
per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and potential
common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of
the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and
warrants (using the treasury stock method). Options and warrants to purchase
2,603,239 and 1,939,646 shares of common stock were outstanding at December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively. However, such amounts have been excluded from the
computation of dilutive earnings per share because their effect is anti-
dilutive. Note 3 - Equity In March 2000, the company sold 820,000 shares of its common
stock at $73.25 per share resulting in net cash proceeds of approximately
$57,600,000. In September and October 1999, the company sold a total of
2,645,000 shares of its common stock at $38.75 per share which resulted in net
proceeds to the company of approximately $96,200,000. Note 4 - Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains
(losses) on available-for-sale securities which are excluded from the results of
operations. The company's total comprehensive losses were as follows (in thousands): Note 5 - Recent Accounting Pronouncement In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements" ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 requires that license and other
upfront fees received from research collaborators be recognized over the term of
the agreement unless the fee is in exchange for products delivered or services
performed that represent the culmination of a separate earning process. SAB
101, as amended, is effective in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. The company
does not expect the adoption of SAB 101 to have a material effect on its
financial statements. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Factors that May Affect Future
Operating Results In addition to historical information, this report
contains predictions, estimates and other forward looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Actual results could
differ materially from any future performance suggested in this report as a
result of the factors, including those discussed in "Factors That May
Affect Future Operating Results," elsewhere in this report and in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000.
Overview Pharmacyclics is a pharmaceutical company focused on the
development of products that improve existing therapeutic approaches to cancer,
atherosclerosis and retinal disease. We are conducting a multicenter
international Phase III clinical trial of XCYTRIN® (motexafin
gadolinium) Injection to improve the efficacy of radiation therapy of tumors
that have spread to the brain resulting from a variety of cancers, including
those of the lung and breast. We plan to enroll approximately 425 adult
patients in this study. As of January 31, 2001, the study had enrolled over 400
patients. We are conducting a Phase IIb clinical trial for
LUTRIN® (motexafin lutetium) Injection as a photosensitizer for
use in the photodynamic therapy of patients with recurrent breast cancers to the
chest wall that have failed standard therapies. Through our Cooperative Research
and Development Agreement, the National Cancer Institute is conducting Phase I
trials of XCYTRIN for treatment of both primary adult and pediatric brain
tumors, pancreatic cancer and lung cancer and of LUTRIN for prostate cancer.
The National Cancer Institute also intends to conduct several additional Phase I
clinical trials of XCYTRIN and LUTRIN, each for a variety of additional cancer
indications. We are now conducting a multicenter randomized Phase II clinical
trial with ANTRIN® (motexafin lutetium) Injection
photoangioplasty for treatment of patients with peripheral arterial disease and
a Phase I trial for treatment of coronary artery disease. In addition, Alcon is
conducting a Phase II clinical trial with OPTRIN™ (motexafin lutetium)
Injection for the photodynamic therapy of patients with a degenerative disease
of the retina caused by growths of small blood vessels in the retina known as
age-related macular degeneration. Alcon is conducting this trial under a 1997
evaluation and license agreement that gave Alcon the right to conduct worldwide
development, marketing and sales of OPTRIN for ophthalmology indications. Also
in 1997, we entered into a collaborative agreement with Nycomed to sell and
market LUTRIN for cancer therapy outside the United States, Canada and
Japan. To date, we have devoted substantially all of our resources
to research and development. We have not derived any commercial revenues from
product sales, and we do not expect to receive product revenues for at least the
next several years. We have incurred significant operating losses since our
inception in 1991 and, as of December 31, 2000, had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $106.9 million. We expect to continue to incur significant
operating losses over the next several years as we continue to incur increasing
research and development costs, in addition to costs related to clinical trials
and manufacturing activities. We expect that losses will fluctuate from quarter
to quarter and that such fluctuations may be substantial. Our achieving
profitability depends upon our ability, alone or with others, to successfully
complete the development of our products under development, and obtain required
regulatory clearances and successfully manufacture and market our products.
Results of Operations Revenues Revenues were $229,000 for the three months ended December
31, 2000, compared to $1,168,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999.
The revenue decrease in fiscal 2001 was primarily related to the recognition, in
the prior fiscal year, of a non-refundable milestone payment from Alcon in
connection with their continuing clinical development of OPTRIN. Revenues for
the six month period ended December 31, 2000 were $339,000, compared to
$1,303,000 in the comparable fiscal 2000 period. Research and Development Research and development expenses for the three months ended
December 31, 2000, were $9,159,000, compared to $7,458,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1999, which represents a 22.8% increase. The increase was
due primarily to increased clinical trial and personnel costs associated with
supporting the company's clinical trials. These cost increases were partially
offset by reduced drug purchase costs. Drug purchase costs have declined with
the completion of large scale manufacturing capability. Our contract
manufacturers have produced enough XCYTRIN to treat more than 20,000 patients,
once XCYTRIN has been approved by the FDA. Until the commercial viability of
XCYTRIN has been demonstrated and the necessary regulatory approvals received,
all XCYTRIN purchases are charged to research and development expense. For the six months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, research
and development expenses were $19,198,000 and $10,967,000, respectively.
Expenses in the six months ended December 31, 1999 were reduced by a credit of
$3,540,000 associated with the termination of our manufacturing development and
supply agreement with Celanese, Ltd. Pursuant to the termination agreement,
Celanese assigned to us all rights, title and interest in the manufacturing
technology and intellectual property for the Company's texaphyrin-based products
and agreed to make a cash payment to the Company of $750,000. The termination
agreement also relieved us of all obligations to pay Celanese for shared
development costs incurred prior to termination of the Agreement. As of June
30, 1999, we had accrued $2,790,000 associated with such costs. Excluding the
impact of the Celanese termination agreement, research and development expenses
increased $4,691,000, (32.3%), to $19,198,000 for the six months ended December
31, 2000 compared to $14,507,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999.
The increase was due primarily to increased clinical trial and personnel costs
associated with supporting the company's clinical trials. We expect research
and development spending to increase further over the next several years as
product development, clinical trials and core research efforts continue to
expand. Marketing, General and Administrative Marketing, general and administrative expenses for the three
months ended December 31, 2000 were $1,626,000, compared to $996,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 1999, which represents a 63.3% increase. For
the six months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, marketing, general and
administrative expenses were $2,860,000 and $1,934,000, respectively, an
increase of 47.9%. The increase in both periods was primarily related to
greater spending associated with building awareness of our XCYTRIN product among
physicians and higher personnel costs needed to support our growth. Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net Interest and other income (expense), net was $2,679,000 and
$1,879,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively,
an increase of 42.6%. For the six months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
interest and other income, net was $5,627,000 and $2,549,000, respectively, an
increase of 20.8%. The increases were primarily attributable to increased
earnings from higher investment balances resulting from the proceeds of a public
equity offering of our common stock completed in September and October 1999, and
a private placement of common stock completed in March 2000. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our principal sources of working capital have been private
and public equity financings and proceeds from collaborative research and
development agreements, as well as grant and contract revenues and interest
income. As of December 31, 2000, we had approximately $166,332,000 in
cash, cash equivalents and investments. Net cash used in operating activities
of $12,742,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2000 resulted primarily
from the net loss for the period, partially offset by an increase in accounts
payable. Net cash used in operating activities of $10,923,000 during the six
months ended December 31, 1999 resulted primarily from the net loss for the
period and an increase in accounts payable. Cash provided by investing activities of $21,683,000 for the
six months ended December 31, 2000, consisted primarily of proceeds of
maturities and sales of investments, net of purchases of investments. Cash used
in investing activities of $28,524,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1999 consisted primarily of purchases of investments, net of proceeds of
maturities of investments. Net cash provided by financing activities of $1,110,000 and
$96,681,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively,
primarily consisted of proceeds from the sale of common stock. Based on the current status of our product development and
commercialization plans, we believe cash, cash equivalents and short and long-
term investments will be adequate to satisfy our capital needs through at least
the calendar year 2002. However, our actual capital requirements will depend on
many factors, including: the status of product development; the time and cost
involved in conducting clinical trials and obtaining regulatory approvals;
filing, prosecuting and enforcing patent claims; competing technological and
market developments; and our ability to market and distribute our products and
establish new collaborative and licensing arrangements. Our forecast of the period of time through which our
financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-
looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results
could vary materially. The factors described above will impact our future
capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds. We may be
required to raise additional funds through public or private financings,
collaborative relationships or other arrangements. There can be no assurance
that such additional funding, if needed, will be available on terms attractive
to us, or at all. Furthermore, any additional equity financing may be dilutive
to existing stockholders and debt financing, if available, may involve
restrictive covenants. Collaborative arrangements, if necessary to raise
additional funds, may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our
technologies, products or marketing territories. Our failure to raise capital
when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. Recent Accounting Pronouncement In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements" ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 requires that license and other
upfront fees received from research collaborators be recognized over the term of
the agreement unless the fee is in exchange for products delivered or services
performed that represent the culmination of a separate earning process. SAB
101, as amended, is effective in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. The company
does not expect the adoption of SAB 101 to have a material effect on its
financial statements. Market Risk Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our investment
portfolio. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely
impacted due to fluctuations in interest rates, while floating rate securities
may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to
these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectations due
to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to
sell securities which have declined in market value due to changes in interest
rates. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve
principal while at the same time maximize yields without significantly
increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we invest our excess cash in debt
instruments of the U.S. Government and its agencies and high-quality corporate
issuers, and, by policy, restrict our exposure to any single corporate issuer by
imposing concentration limits. To minimize the exposure due to adverse shifts in
interest rates, we maintain investments at an average maturity of generally less
than two years. One of our cancelable drug supply agreements is denominated
in a foreign currency. We have not entered into any agreements or transactions
to hedge the risk associated with potential fluctuations in currencies;
accordingly, we are subject to foreign currency exchange risk related to this
contract. While we may enter into hedge or other agreements in the future to
actively manage this risk, we do not believe this risk is material to our
financial statements. FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS Risks Related to Pharmacyclics All of our product candidates are in development, and we
cannot be certain that any of our products under development will be
commercialized To be profitable, we must successfully research, develop,
obtain regulatory approval for, manufacture, introduce, market and distribute
our products under development. The time frame necessary to achieve these goals
for any individual product is long and uncertain. Before we can sell any of our
products under development, we must demonstrate through preclinical (animal)
studies and clinical (human) trials that each product is safe and effective for
human use for each targeted disease. We have conducted and plan to continue
extensive and costly clinical trials to assess the safety and effectiveness of
our potential products. We cannot be certain that we will be permitted to begin
or continue our planned clinical trials for our potential products, or if
permitted, that our potential products will prove to be safe and to produce
their intended effects. The completion rate of our clinical trials depends upon,
among other factors, the rate of patient enrollment. We may fail to obtain
adequate levels of patient enrollment in our clinical trials. Delays in planned
patient enrollment may result in increased costs, delays or termination of
clinical trials, which could have a material adverse effect on us. Additionally, demands on our clinical staff have been
increasing and we expect they will continue to increase as a result of later-
stage clinical trials of our products in development and our monitoring of
additional clinical trials. We may fail to effectively oversee and monitor these
many simultaneous clinical trials, which would result in increased costs or
delays of our clinical trials. Even if these clinical trials are completed, we
may fail to complete and submit a new drug application as scheduled. Even if we
are able to submit a new drug application as scheduled, the Food and Drug
Administration may not clear our application in a timely manner or may deny the
application entirely. Data already obtained from preclinical studies and clinical
trials of our products under development do not necessarily predict the results
that will be obtained from later preclinical studies and clinical trials.
Moreover, data such as ours is susceptible to varying interpretations which
could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval. A number of companies in the
pharmaceutical industry, including biotechnology companies like us, have
suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials, even after promising
results in earlier trials. The failure to adequately demonstrate the safety and
effectiveness of a product under development could delay or prevent regulatory
clearance of the potential product and would materially harm our business. Our
clinical trials may not demonstrate the sufficient levels of safety and efficacy
necessary to obtain the requisite regulatory approval or may not result in
marketable products. We have a history of operating losses and we expect to
continue to have losses in the future We have incurred significant operating losses since our
inception in 1991 and, as of December 31, 2000, had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $106.9 million. We expect to continue to incur significant
operating losses over the next several years as we continue to incur increasing
costs for research and development, clinical trials and manufacturing. Our
ability to achieve profitability depends upon our ability, alone or with others,
to successfully complete the development of our proposed products, obtain the
required regulatory clearances and manufacture and market our proposed products.
To date, we have not generated revenue from the commercial sale of our products
and do not expect to receive any such revenue in the near future. All revenues
to date are primarily from license and milestone payments and, to a lesser
extent, funding from one government research grant. Failure to obtain product approvals or comply with ongoing
governmental regulations could adversely affect our business The manufacture and marketing of our products and our
research and development activities are subject to extensive regulation for
safety, efficacy and quality by numerous government authorities in the United
States and abroad. Before receiving FDA clearance to market a product, we will
have to demonstrate that the product is safe and effective on the patient
population and for the diseases that will be treated. Clinical trials,
manufacturing and marketing of products are subject to the rigorous testing and
approval process of the FDA and equivalent foreign regulatory authorities. The
Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and other federal, state and foreign
statutes and regulations govern and influence the testing, manufacture,
labeling, advertising, distribution and promotion of drugs and medical devices.
As a result, clinical trials and regulatory approval can take a number of years
to accomplish and require the expenditure of substantial resources. Data
obtained from clinical trials are susceptible to varying interpretations which
could delay, limit or prevent regulatory clearances. We compared the results of
our Phase Ib/II clinical trial of XCYTRIN to historical data using a 528-patient
database containing information on clinical features and outcomes in comparable
patients receiving treatment with identical doses of radiation alone. Historical
analyses have many limitations and, while supportive, are not considered proof
that XCYTRIN improved the outcome of patients enrolled in the study. In addition, we may encounter delays or rejections based upon
additional government regulation from future legislation or administrative
action or changes in FDA policy during the period of product development,
clinical trials and FDA regulatory review. We may encounter similar delays in
foreign countries. We may be unable to obtain requisite approvals from the FDA
and foreign regulatory authorities, and even if obtained, such approvals may not
be on a timely basis, or they may not cover the clinical uses that we
specify. Marketing or promoting a drug for an unapproved use is
subject to very strict controls. Furthermore, clearance may entail ongoing
requirements for post-marketing studies. The manufacture and marketing of drugs
are subject to continuing FDA and foreign regulatory review and later discovery
of previously unknown problems with a product, manufacturer or facility may
result in restrictions, including withdrawal of the product from the market. Any
of the following events, if they were to occur, could delay or preclude us from
further developing, marketing or realizing full commercial use of our products,
which in turn would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations:

Manufacturers of drugs also must comply with the applicable FDA good manufacturing practice regulations, which include quality control and quality assurance requirements as well as the corresponding maintenance of records and documentation. Manufacturing facilities are subject to ongoing periodic inspection by the FDA and corresponding state agencies, including unannounced inspections, and must be licensed before they can be used in commercial manufacturing of our products. We or our present or future suppliers may be unable to comply with the applicable good manufacturing practice regulations and other FDA regulatory requirements. We have not been subject to a GMP inspection by the FDA. We may be subject to delays in commercializing our products for photodynamic therapies due to delays in approvals of the third- party light sources required for these products.
Acceptance of our products in the marketplace is uncertain, and failure to achieve market acceptance will harm our business
Even if approved for marketing, our products may not achieve market acceptance. The degree of market acceptance will depend upon a number of factors, including:
Physicians, patients, payors or the medical community in general may be unwilling to accept, utilize or recommend any of our products.
We may fail to adequately protect or enforce our intellectual property rights or secure rights to third-party patents
A number of third-party patent applications have been published, and some have issued, relating to biometallic and expanded porphyrin chemistries. It is likely that competitors and other third parties have and will continue to file applications for and receive patents relating to similar or even the same compositions, methods or designs as those of our products. If any third-party patent claims are asserted against the company's products and are upheld as valid and infringed, we could be prevented from practicing the subject matter claimed in such patents, require license(s) or have to redesign our products or processes to avoid infringement. Such licenses may not be available or, if available, may not be on terms acceptable to us. Alternatively, we may be unsuccessful in any attempt to redesign our products or processes to avoid infringement. Litigation or other legal proceedings may be necessary to defend against claims of infringement, to enforce our patents, or to protect our trade secrets, and could result in substantial cost to the company, and diversion of our efforts.
We are aware of several U.S. patents owned or licensed to Schering AG that relate to pharmaceutical formulations and methods for enhancing magnetic resonance imaging. We have obtained the opinion of special patent counsel that the technologies we employ for our imaging product under development and magnetic resonance imaging detectable compounds do not infringe the claims of such patents. Nevertheless, Schering AG may still choose to assert one or more of those patents. If any of our products were legally determined to be infringing a valid and enforceable claim of any such patents, our business could be materially adversely affected. Further, any allegation by Schering AG that we infringed their patents would likely result in significant legal costs and require the diversion of substantial management resources. Schering AG sent communications to us suggesting that our oral magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent, CITRA VU, may infringe certain of their patents. We are aware that Schering AG has asserted patent rights against at least one other company in the contrast agent imaging market and that a number of companies have entered into licensing arrangements with Schering AG with respect to one or more of such patents. We cannot be certain that we would be successful in defending a lawsuit or able to obtain a license on commercially reasonable terms from Schering AG, if required.
We also rely upon trade secrets, technical know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position. We require our employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators to execute appropriate confidentiality and assignment-of-inventions agreements with us. These agreements typically provide that all materials and confidential information developed or made known to the individual during the course of the individual's relationship with us is to be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties except in specific circumstances, and that all inventions arising out of the relationship with Pharmacyclics shall be our exclusive property. These agreements may be breached, and in some instances, we may not have an appropriate remedy available for breach of the agreements. Furthermore, our competitors may independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques, reverse engineer our information and techniques, or otherwise gain access to our proprietary technology. We may be unable to meaningfully protect our rights in unpatented proprietary technology.
We rely heavily on third parties
We currently depend heavily and will depend heavily in the future on third parties for support in product development, manufacturing, marketing and distribution. We have a collaboration agreement with Nycomed. We rely on Nycomed for a portion of our LUTRIN development costs in the form of milestone payments, and for the commercialization, when and if LUTRIN is approved, of this product outside the United States, Canada and Japan. In the field of retinal degeneration, we depend on Alcon for preclinical and clinical studies, regulatory filings and sales and marketing of OPTRIN for ophthalmology uses worldwide. Alcon may terminate their agreement with us at their election. We cannot be certain that any of these parties will fulfill their obligations in a manner that maximizes our revenues. Our failure to receive milestone payments or any reduction or discontinuance of efforts by our partners or the termination of these alliances could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We also depend upon the National Cancer Institute for the sponsoring and funding of certain of the clinical trials of our XCYTRIN radiation enhancer and LUTRIN photosensitizer products in development. We cannot be certain that the National Cancer Institute will enlist support for all such trials or that it will continue the funding of these trials. If the National Cancer Institute did not support such trials, we may have to fund the continuation of such trials ourselves or reduce the number of disease indications in our clinical trials.
We may be unsuccessful in entering into additional strategic alliances for the development or commercialization of other product candidates. Even if we did enter into any such alliances, they may not be on terms favorable to us or they may ultimately be unsuccessful.
We have no expertise in the development of light sources and associated light delivery devices required for our photoangioplasty and photodynamic therapy products under development. Successful development, manufacturing, approval and distribution of our photosensitization products will require third party participation for the required light sources, associated light delivery devices and other equipment. We currently obtain lasers from Diomed, Inc. and cylindrically diffusing light fibers from CardioFocus, Inc. on a purchase order basis, and such entities are under no obligation to continue to deliver light devices on an ongoing basis. Failure to maintain such relationships may require us to develop additional supply sources which may require additional clinical trials and regulatory approvals and could materially delay commercialization of our LUTRIN and ANTRIN products under development. We may be unable to establish or maintain relationships with other supply sources on a commercially reasonable basis, if at all, or alternatively, the enabling devices may not receive regulatory approval for use in photoangioplasty or photodynamic therapy.
We have limited manufacturing experience and thus rely heavily upon contract manufacturers
We must manufacture our products in commercial quantities, either directly or through third parties, in compliance with regulatory requirements and at an acceptable cost. We do not own manufacturing facilities necessary to provide clinical and commercial quantities of our products.
In September 1996, we entered into an agreement with Hoechst Celanese Corporation, a manufacturer of chemicals and pharmaceutical components, to optimize and scale up a manufacturing process for and supply of our texaphyrin-based products. In October 1997, Hoechst Celanese assigned the agreement to Celanese, Ltd., in connection with Hoechst Celanese's corporate restructuring. This agreement granted Celanese exclusive worldwide manufacturing rights and required Celanese to supply all of our texaphyrin-based products for late-stage clinical and commercial use. As a result of the change in its business focus, Celanese requested that we pursue alternative supply sources. On August 27, 1999, we entered into an agreement to terminate the manufacturing and supply agreement with Celanese. Pursuant to that agreement, Celanese assigned to us all right, title and interest in and to the manufacturing technology and intellectual property for our texaphyrin-based products.
During discussions with Celanese that resulted in termination of the manufacturing and supply agreement, we entered into agreements with three new manufacturers to evaluate their ability to supply us with the components of the texaphyrin-based products. These three manufacturers have completed delivery of commercial quantities of XCYTRIN drug substance to us in accordance with the agreements. Due to the addition of alternative manufacturers, we must demonstrate to the FDA the substantial equivalence of the materials produced by these manufacturers to the materials used in our clinical trials to date. Failure to demonstrate equivalence of the material produced by these manufacturers could involve performing additional clinical trials and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have entered into commercial supply agreements with two of the three manufacturers and are negotiating a supply agreement with the third manufacturer. We cannot be certain that we will be able to successfully negotiate this third supply agreement at all or on commercially acceptable terms.
We have entered into an agreement with Cook Pharmaceutical Solutions to formulate, fill, package and label clinical and commercial quantities of XCYTRIN. Cook also supplies us with clinical quantities of ANTRIN and LUTRIN. Any interruption of supply of our products from Cook could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Any failure by these third parties to supply our requirements or the National Cancer Institute's requirements for clinical trial materials would jeopardize the completion of such trials and could therefore have a material adverse effect on us.
We lack marketing and sales experience
We currently do not have marketing, sales or distribution experience. Therefore, to service markets in which we have retained sales and marketing rights and in the event that either of our agreements with Alcon or Nycomed is terminated, we must develop a sales force with technical expertise. We have no experience in developing, training or managing a sales force. We will incur substantial additional expenses in developing, training and managing such an organization. We may be unable to build such a sales force, the cost of establishing such a sales force may exceed any product revenues, or our direct marketing and sales efforts may be unsuccessful. In addition, we compete with many other companies that currently have extensive and well-funded marketing and sales operations. Our marketing and sales efforts may be unable to compete successfully against such other companies.
Our capital requirements are uncertain and we may have difficulty raising needed capital in the future
We have expended and will continue to expend substantial funds to complete the research, development and clinical testing of our products. We will require additional funds for these purposes, to establish additional clinical-and commercial-scale manufacturing arrangements and to provide for the marketing and distribution of our products. Additional funds may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are unavailable from operations or additional sources of financing, we may have to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our research or development programs which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operations.
We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and investments, will be adequate to satisfy our capital needs through at least calendar year 2002. However, our actual capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
We may seek to raise any necessary additional funds through equity or debt financings, collaborative arrangements with corporate partners or other sources which may be dilutive to existing stockholders. In addition, in the event that additional funds are obtained through arrangements with collaborative partners or other sources, such arrangements may require us to relinquish rights to some of our technologies, product candidates or products under development that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize ourselves.
Risks Related to Our Industry
We face rapid technological change and intense competition
The pharmaceutical industry is subject to rapid and substantial technological change. Developments by others may render our products under development or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete, or we may be unable to keep pace with technological developments or other market factors. Technological competition in the industry from pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, universities, governmental entities and others diversifying into the field is intense and is expected to increase. Many of these entities have significantly greater research and development capabilities than we do, as well as substantially more marketing, manufacturing, financial and managerial resources. These entities represent significant competition for us. Acquisitions of, or investments in, competing pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies by large corporations could increase such competitors' financial, marketing, manufacturing and other resources.
We are a relatively new enterprise and are engaged in the development of novel therapeutic technologies. As a result, our resources are limited and we may experience technical challenges inherent in such novel technologies.
Competitors have developed or are in the process of developing technologies that are, or in the future may be, the basis for competitive products. Some of these products may have an entirely different approach or means of accomplishing similar therapeutic, diagnostic and imaging effects than our products. We are aware that one of our competitors in the market for photodynamic therapy drugs has received marketing approval of a product for certain uses in the United States and other countries. Our competitors may develop products that are safer, more effective or less costly than our products and, therefore, present a serious competitive threat to our product offerings.
The widespread acceptance of therapies that are alternatives to ours may limit market acceptance of our products even if commercialized. The diseases for which we are developing our therapeutic products can also be treated, in the case of cancer, by surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, and in the case of atherosclerosis, by surgery, angioplasty, drug therapy and the use of devices to maintain and open blood vessels. These treatments are widely accepted in the medical community and have a long history of use. The established use of these competitive products may limit the potential for our products to receive widespread acceptance if commercialized.
The price of our common stock may be volatile
The market prices for securities of small capitalization biotechnology companies, including ours, have historically been highly volatile. The market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly due to a variety of factors, including:
In addition, if any of the risks described in these "Risk Factors" actually occurred, it could have a dramatic and material adverse impact on the market price of our common stock.
We are subject to uncertainties regarding health care reimbursement and reform
The continuing efforts of government and insurance companies, health maintenance organizations and other payors of healthcare costs to contain or reduce costs of health care may affect our future revenues and profitability, and the future revenues and profitability of our potential customers, suppliers and collaborative partners and the availability of capital. For example, in certain foreign markets, pricing or profitability of prescription pharmaceuticals is subject to government control. In the United States, given recent federal and state government initiatives directed at lowering the total cost of health care, the U.S. Congress and state legislatures will likely continue to focus on health care reform, the cost of prescription pharmaceuticals and on the reform of the Medicare and Medicaid systems. While we cannot predict whether any such legislative or regulatory proposals will be adopted, the announcement or adoption of such proposals could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our ability to commercialize our products successfully will depend in part on the extent to which appropriate reimbursement levels for the cost of our products and related treatment are obtained from governmental authorities, private health insurers and other organizations, such as HMOs. Third-party payors are increasingly challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. Also, the trend toward managed health care in the United States and the concurrent growth of organizations such as HMOs, which could control or significantly influence the purchase of health care services and products, as well as legislative proposals to reform health care or reduce government insurance programs, may all result in lower prices for or rejection of our products. The cost containment measures that health care payors and providers are instituting and the effect of any health care reform could materially adversely affect our ability to operate profitably.
Our business exposes us to product liability claims
The testing, manufacture, marketing and sale of our products involve an inherent risk that product liability claims will be asserted against us. Although we are insured against such risks up to a $10,000,000 annual aggregate limit in connection with clinical trials and commercial sales of our products, our present product liability insurance may be inadequate. A successful product liability claim in excess of our insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Any successful product liability claim may prevent us from obtaining adequate product liability insurance in the future on commercially desirable or reasonable terms. In addition, product liability coverage may cease to be available in sufficient amounts or at an acceptable cost. An inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or otherwise to protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of our pharmaceutical products. A product liability claim or recall would have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business involves environmental risks
In connection with our research and development activities and our manufacture of materials and products, we are subject to federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and policies governing the use, generation, manufacture, storage, air emission, effluent discharge, handling and disposal of certain materials, biological specimens and wastes. Although we believe that we have complied with the applicable laws, regulations and policies in all material respects and have not been required to correct any material noncompliance, we may be required to incur significant costs to comply with environmental and health and safety regulations in the future. Our research and development involves the controlled use of hazardous materials, including but not limited to certain hazardous chemicals and radioactive materials. Although we believe that our safety procedures for handling and disposing of such materials comply with the standards prescribed by state and federal regulations, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials. In the event of such an occurrence, we could be held liable for any damages that result and any such liability could exceed our resources.
