Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2022

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Business

 

Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Corbus”) is focused on the development of immune modulators that will have application in disease states spanning from immuno-oncology to fibrosis. Corbus’ current pipeline includes anti-integrin monoclonal antibodies that block activation of TGFβ and small molecules that activate or inhibit the endocannabinoid system. The Company plans to expand its pipeline in immuno-oncology through internal efforts and business development. Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. The Company’s business is subject to significant risks and uncertainties and the Company will be dependent on raising substantial additional capital before it becomes profitable and it may never achieve profitability.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2022 and the results of its operations and changes in stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The December 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed on March 8, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”). The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year.

 

The Company is continuing to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and operations.

 

 

2. LIQUIDITY

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses since inception and as of September 30, 2022, had an accumulated deficit of $381,202,000. The Company anticipates operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future due to, among other things, costs related to research funding, development of its product candidates and its preclinical and clinical programs, strategic alliances and the development of its administrative organization. The Company expects the cash, cash equivalents, and investments of approximately $66,229,000 at September 30, 2022 to be sufficient to meet its operating and capital requirements at least twelve months from the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

The source, timing and availability of any future financing will depend principally upon market conditions, and, more specifically, on the progress of the Company’s clinical development programs. Funding may not be available when needed, at all, or on terms acceptable to the Company. Lack of necessary funds may require the Company to, among other things, delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of the Company’s planned clinical or preclinical trials.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements is as follows:

 

Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and changes in estimates may occur. The most significant estimates are related to stock-based compensation, the accrual of research, product development and clinical obligations, lease obligations, and the valuation of warrants discussed in Note 14.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

 

The Company considers only those investments which are highly liquid, readily convertible to cash, and that mature within three months from date of purchase to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash equivalents were comprised of money market funds.

 

Restricted cash as of September 30, 2022 included security for a stand-by letter of credit issued in favor of a landlord for $669,900 of which $192,475 was classified in current assets and $477,425 was classified in noncurrent assets as of September 30, 2022.

 

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash consisted of the following:

As of December 31, 2021, all of the Company’s cash was held in the United States, except for approximately $5,752,000 of cash which was held principally in its subsidiary in the United Kingdom.

 

Investments

 

Investments consist of debt securities and term deposits with maturities greater than 90 days at their acquisition date. The Company has classified its investments with maturities beyond one year as current, based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations.

 

The Company classifies all of its marketable debt securities as available-for-sale securities. The Company’s marketable debt securities are measured and reported at fair value using quoted prices in active markets for similar securities. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities are reported as accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The cost of debt securities sold is determined on a specific identification basis, and realized gains and losses are included in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Company evaluates its marketable debt securities with unrealized losses for other-than-temporary impairment. When assessing marketable debt securities for other-than-temporary declines in value, the Company considers such factors as, among other things, how significant the decline in value is as a percentage of the original cost, how long the market value of the investment has been less than its original cost, the Company’s ability and intent to retain the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value and market conditions in general. If any adjustment to fair value reflects a decline in the value of the investment that the Company considers to be “other than temporary,” the Company reduces the investment to fair value through a charge to the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. No such adjustments were necessary during the periods presented.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying values of the notes payable and debt approximate their fair value due to the fact that they are at market terms.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The valuation of the Company’s debt and embedded derivatives are determined primarily by an income approach that considers the present value of net cash flows of the debt with and without prepayment and default features. These embedded debt features, which are determined to be classified as derivative liabilities are marked-to-market each reporting period, with a corresponding non-cash gain or loss charged to the current period. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, there exists a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

 

The Company’s investments, debt, and its derivative liabilities are carried at fair value determined according to the fair value hierarchy described above. The carrying values of the Company’s prepaid expenses and other current assets, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

 

To determine the fair value of our embedded derivatives, management evaluates assumptions regarding the probability of certain future events. Other factors used to determine fair value include the discount rate, risk free interest rate and derivative term. The fair value recorded for the derivative liability varies from period to period. This variability may result in the actual derivative liability for a period either above or below the estimates recorded on our consolidated financial statements, resulting in fluctuations in other income (expense) because of the corresponding non-cash gain or loss recorded.

 

Property and Equipment

 

The estimated life for the Company’s property and equipment is as follows: three years for computer hardware and software and three to five years for office furniture and equipment. The Company’s leasehold improvements and assets under capital lease are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the respective leases. See Note 7 for details of property and equipment and Note 8 for operating and capital lease commitments.

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

Costs incurred for research and development are expensed as incurred.

 

Nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that have the characteristics that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities pursuant to executory contractual arrangements with third party research organizations are deferred and recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed.

Accruals for Research and Development Expenses and Clinical Trials

 

As part of the process of preparing its financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its expenses resulting from its obligations under contracts with vendors, clinical research organizations and consultants and under clinical site agreements in connection with conducting clinical trials. The financial terms of these contracts are subject to negotiations, which vary from contract to contract and may result in payment terms that do not match the periods over which materials or services are provided under such contracts. The Company’s objective is to reflect the appropriate expenses in its financial statements by matching those expenses with the period in which services are performed and efforts are expended. The Company accounts for these expenses according to the timing of various aspects of the expenses. The Company determines accrual estimates by taking into account discussion with applicable internal personnel and outside service providers as to the progress of clinical trials, or the services completed. During the course of a clinical trial, the Company adjusts its clinical expense recognition if actual results differ from its estimates. The Company makes estimates of its accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date based on the facts and circumstances known to it at that time. The Company’s clinical trial accruals are dependent upon the timely and accurate reporting of contract research organizations (“CROs”) and other third-party vendors. Although the Company does not expect its estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred, its understanding of the status and timing of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and may result in it reporting amounts that are too high or too low for any particular period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no material adjustments to the Company’s prior period estimates of accrued expenses for clinical trials.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities, current and noncurrent in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. This is the rate the Company would have to pay if borrowing on a collateralized basis over a similar term to each lease. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company has subleased a portion of its leased facility under an agreement considered to be an operating lease according to GAAP. The Company has not been legally released from its primary obligations under the original lease and therefore it continues to account for the original lease as it did before commencement of the sublease. The Company will record both fixed and variable payments received from the sublessee in its statements of operations and comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis as an offset to rent expense.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other hedging arrangements. The Company may from time to time have cash in banks in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. However, the Company believes the risk of loss is minimal as these banks are large financial institutions.

 

Segment Information

 

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. To date, the Company has viewed its operations and manages its business as principally one operating segment, which is developing and commercializing therapeutics for autoimmunity, fibrosis, and cancer. As of September 30, 2022, all of the Company’s assets were located in the United States, except for approximately $2,806,000 of cash, cash equivalents, and investments and $442,000 of prepaid expenses and other assets which were held outside of the United States, principally in its subsidiary in the United Kingdom. As of December 31, 2021, all of the Company’s assets were located in the United States, except for approximately $22,504,000 of cash, cash equivalents, and investments, $973,000 of prepaid expenses and other assets, and $1,000 of property and equipment, net which were held outside of the United States, principally in its subsidiary in the United Kingdom.

Income Taxes

 

For federal and state income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based upon temporary differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are based upon prescribed rates and enacted laws applicable to periods in which differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce a net deferred tax benefit when it is not more likely than not that the tax benefit from the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, given the cumulative losses since inception, the Company has provided a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the deferred tax assets in order to eliminate the deferred tax assets amounts.

 

Tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns are required to be evaluated to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold, as well as accrued interest and penalties, if any, would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. There were no uncertain tax positions that require accrual or disclosure to the financial statements as of September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when expected undiscounted cash flows of an asset are less than an asset’s carrying value. Accordingly, when indicators of impairment are present, the Company evaluates the carrying value of such assets in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying assets. An impairment loss equal to the excess of the fair value of the asset over its carrying amount, is recorded when it is determined that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $606,000 of which $380,000 was included in research and development and $226,000 was included in general and administrative during the third quarter of 2021 to write down the value of leasehold improvements as a result of entering into a sublease. The Company notes no impairment charges were taken in 2022. See Note 8 for more details on sublease agreement.

 

Stock-based Payments

 

The Company recognizes compensation costs resulting from the issuance of stock-based awards to employees, non-employees and directors as an expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss over the service period based on a measurement of fair value for each stock-based award. The fair value of each option grant is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, net of estimated forfeitures. The fair value of each option grant is amortized as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period.

 

Foreign Currency

 

Transaction gains and losses arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. Dollar functional currency are recorded in the Company’s statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Such transaction gains and losses may be realized or unrealized depending upon whether the transaction settled during the period or remains outstanding at the balance sheet date. The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2021, the FSB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options which is intended to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after modification of exchange. This standard is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2021-04 as of January 1, 2022 had no impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity which is intended to simplify various aspects of GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The standard is effective for public companies that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities that are smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2021. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2024 or when it ceases being eligible to be a smaller reporting company. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of the adoption of ASU 2020-06 and the potential impact that this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes may result in earlier recognition of credit losses. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, which narrowed the scope and changed the effective date for non-public entities for ASU 2016-13. The FASB subsequently issued supplemental guidance within ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief (“ASU 2019-05”). ASU 2019-05 provides an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. For public entities that are SEC filers, excluding entities that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. This standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 or when it ceases being eligible to be a smaller reporting company. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that this standard may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

6. LICENSE AGREEMENTS

 

The Company entered into a license agreement (the “Jenrin Agreement”) with Jenrin Discovery, LLC, a privately-held Delaware limited liability company (“Jenrin”), effective September 20, 2018. Pursuant to the Jenrin Agreement, Jenrin granted the Company exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize the Licensed Products (as defined in the Jenrin Agreement) which includes the Jenrin library of over 600 compounds and multiple issued and pending patent filings. The compounds are designed to treat inflammatory and fibrotic diseases by targeting the endocannabinoid system.

 

In consideration of the license and other rights granted by Jenrin, the Company paid Jenrin a $250,000 upfront cash payment and is obligated to pay potential milestone payments to Jenrin totaling up to $18,400,000 for each compound it elects to develop based upon the achievement of specified development and regulatory milestones. In addition, Corbus is obligated to pay Jenrin royalties in the mid, single digits based on net sales of any Licensed Products, subject to specified reductions.

 

The Company entered into a license agreement (the “Milky Way License Agreement”) with Milky Way BioPharma, LLC (“Milky Way”), a subsidiary of Panorama Research Inc., effective May 25, 2021. Pursuant to the Milky Way License Agreement, the Company received an exclusive license, under certain patent rights and know-how owned or controlled by Milky Way, to develop, commercialize, and otherwise exploit products containing antibodies against integrin αvβ6 and/or integrin αvβ8 (“Licensed Products”), one of which the Company is referring to as CRB-602. Under the terms of the Milky Way License Agreement, the Company will have sole responsibility for research, development, and commercialization of any Licensed Products, and Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform these activities.

 

In consideration for the license and other rights granted to the Company under the Milky Way License Agreement, the Company paid Milky Way an upfront payment of $500,000 and issued to Milky Way 147,875 shares of its common stock. The Company is obligated to pay up to $53,000,000 in potential milestone payments for the achievement of certain development, regulatory, and sales milestones. At the Company’s election, the Company may satisfy a portion of certain milestone payments by issuing shares of its common stock. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay royalties in the low, single digits on sales of Licensed Products during the life of the applicable licensed patents on a country-by-county and product-by-product basis, which is subject to a minimum annual royalty obligation, as well as a percentage share of certain payments received by Company from sublicensees.

 

The Company entered into a license agreement (the “UCSF License Agreement”) with the Regents of the University of California (“The Regents”) effective May 26, 2021. Pursuant to the UCSF License Agreement, the Company received an exclusive license to certain patents relating to humanized antibodies against integrin αvβ8, one of which the Company is referring to as CRB-601, along with non-exclusive licenses to certain related know-how and materials.

 

In consideration for the license and other rights granted to the Company under the UCSF License Agreement, the Company paid The Regents a license issue fee of $1,500,000 and is obligated to pay an annual license maintenance fee, as well as up to $153,000,000 in potential milestone payments for the achievement of certain development, regulatory, and sales milestones. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay royalties in the low, single digits on sales of products falling within the scope of the licensed patents, which is subject to a minimum annual royalty obligation, and a percentage share of certain payments received by Company from sublicensees or in connection with the sale of the licensed program.

 

The Company determined that substantially all of the fair value of the Jenrin Agreement was attributable to a single in-process research and development asset which did not constitute a business. The Company determined that substantially all of the fair value of the Milky Way License Agreement and the UCSF License Agreement was attributable to separate groups of in-process research and development assets which did not constitute a business. The Company concluded that it did not have any alternative future use for the acquired in-process research and development assets. Thus, the Company recorded the various upfront payment to research and development expenses in the quarter the license deals became effective. The Company will account for the development, regulatory, and sales milestone payments in the period that the relevant milestones are achieved as either research and development expense or as an intangible asset as applicable. To date, the Company has made no milestone payments under any of the above agreements.

Loan and Security Agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC

 

On July 28, 2020, the Company, with its subsidiary, Corbus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., as borrower, entered into a $50,000,000 secured Loan and Security Agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC (“K2HV”), an unrelated third party (the “Loan Agreement”) and received the first $20,000,000 tranche upon signing. The second tranche of $20,000,000 and the third tranche of $10,000,000 will be made available at the Company’s option subject to the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones. The loan matures on August 1, 2024 and the Company is obligated to make interest only payments for the first 24 months and then interest and equal principal payments for the next 24 months. Interest accrues at a variable annual rate equal to the greater of (i) 8.5% and (ii) the rate of interest noted in The Wall Street Journal, Money Rates section, as the “Prime Rate” plus 5.25%, in each case, subject to a step-down of 25 basis points upon the funding of the second tranche. The interest rate used at September 30, 2022 was 11.5%.

 

K2HV may elect to convert up to $5,000,000 of the outstanding loan into common stock at a conversion price of $9.40 per share.

 

In connection with the Loan Agreement, on July 28, 2020, the Company issued to the Lenders (as defined in the Loan Agreement) a warrant to purchase up to 86,206 common shares (the “K2 Warrant”) at an exercise price of $6.96 (the “Warrant Price”). The K2 Warrant may be exercised either for cash or on a cashless “net exercise” basis and expires on July 28, 2030. The total proceeds attributed to the K2 Warrant was approximately $472,000 based on the relative fair value of the K2 Warrant as compared to the sum of the fair values of the K2 Warrant, prepayment feature, default feature, and debt. Total proceeds attributed to the prepayment and default features was approximately $546,000. The Company also incurred approximately $1,244,000 of debt issuance costs and is required to make a final payment equal to approximately $1,190,000. See Note 14 for more detail on assumptions used in the valuation of the K2 Warrant and see Note 15 for more information on the assumptions used in valuation of the default and prepayment features.

 

The total principal amount of the loan under the Loan Agreement outstanding at September 30, 2022, including the $1,190,000 final payment discussed above, is $21,190,000.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the applicable rate of interest, described above, will be increased by 5.00% per annum. The secured term loan maturity date is August 1, 2024, and the Loan Agreement includes both financial and non-financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2022. The obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured on a senior basis by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The subsidiaries of the Company are guarantors of the obligations of the Company under the Loan Agreement.

 

The total debt discount related to Lenders of approximately $2,262,000 is being charged to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the debt. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of our outstanding debt, which is considered level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, approximates carrying value. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $811,000 and $2,193,000, respectively. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $686,000 and $2,016,000, respectively.

11. DEVELOPMENT AWARDS

 

2018 CFF Award

 

On January 26, 2018, the Company entered into the Cystic Fibrosis Program Related Investment Agreement with the CFF, a non-profit drug discovery and development corporation, pursuant to which the Company received an award for up to $25,000,000 in funding (the “2018 CFF Award”) to support a Phase 2b Clinical Trial (the “Phase 2b Clinical Trial”) of lenabasum in patients with cystic fibrosis, of which the Company has received $25 million in the aggregate through September 30, 2022 upon the Company’s achievement of milestones related to the progress of the Phase 2b Clinical Trial, as set forth in the Investment Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement and an amendment entered into on June 20, 2022 (the "Investment Agreements"), in the event Corbus licenses the right to develop and commercialize lenabasum to a third party the Company is obligated to pay the CFF 10% of the first $2 million received, 15% of amounts exceeding $2 million up to $5 million and 23% of amounts exceeding $5 million.

 

Additionally, the Company is obligated to make (i) royalty payments to CFF of two and one-half percent of net sales from lenabasum due within sixty days after any quarter in which such net sales occur in the Field (as defined in the Investment Agreement), (ii) royalty payments to CFF of one percent of net sales of Non-Field Products (as defined in the Investment Agreement) due within sixty days after any quarter in which such net sales occur, and (iii) royalty payment to CFF of 10% of any amount the Company and its stockholders receive in connection with a change of control transaction, except that such payment shall not exceed five times the amount of the 2018 CFF Award, with such payments to be credited against any other net sales royalty payments due. Accordingly, the Company will owe to CFF a royalty payment equal to 10% of any amounts the Company receives as payment under the collaboration agreement with Kaken, provided that the total royalties that the Company will be required to pay under the Investment Agreement resulting from income from licenses or sales subject to the Investment Agreement are capped at five times the total amount of the 2018 CFF Award. The Company may credit such royalties against any royalties on net sales otherwise owed to CFF under the Investment Agreement. Accordingly, the Company was required to pay CFF $2,700,000 in May 2019 as a result of its receipt of the $27,000,000 upfront cash payment from Kaken.

 

Either CFF or the Company may terminate the Investment Agreement for cause, which includes the Company’s material failure to achieve certain commercialization and development milestones. The Company’s payment obligations survive the termination of the Investment Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, the Company issued a warrant to CFF to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “CFF Warrant”). The CFF Warrant is exercisable at a price equal to $13.20 per share and all shares are vested as of September 30, 2022. The CFF Warrant expires on January 26, 2025. Any shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon exercise of the CFF Warrant will be unregistered and subject to a one-year lock-up.

 

Under the Investment Agreement, the Company recorded no revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $97,323 and $881,705 of revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The Company concluded that the contract counterparty, CFF, is a customer. The Company identified the following material promise under the arrangement: research and development activities and related services under the Phase 2b Clinical Trial. Based on these assessments, the Company identified one performance obligation at the outset of the Investment Agreement, which consists of: Phase 2b Clinical Trial research and development activities and related services.

 

 

-20-


 

To determine the transaction price, the Company included the total aggregate payments under the Investment Agreement which amount to $25,000,000 and reduced the revenue to be recognized by the payment to the customer of $6,215,225 in the form of the CFF Warrant representing its fair value, leaving the remaining $18,784,775 as the transaction price as of the outset of the arrangement, which will be recognized as revenue over the performance period as discussed below. The $6,215,225 fair value of the warrant was also recorded as an increase to additional paid in capital.

 

The Company has invoiced and received $25,000,000 in milestone payments, including $12,500,000 in 2018, $5,000,000 in 2019, $5,000,000 in 2020, and $2,500,000 in 2021. The Company notes there are no further development milestones under this agreement.

 

The CFF Warrant is accounted for as a payment to the customer. See Note 14 for further information related to the CFF Warrant. The Company notes that the Investment Agreement contains an initial payment that was received upon contract execution and subsequent milestone payments, which are a form of variable consideration that require evaluation for constraint considerations. The Company concluded that the related performance milestones are generally within the Company’s control and as result are considered probable. Revenue associated with the performance obligation is being recognized as revenue as the research and development services are provided using an input method, according to the costs incurred as related to the research and development activities on each program and the costs expected to be incurred in the future to satisfy the performance obligation. The transfer of control occurs over this time period and, in management’s judgment, is the best measure of progress towards satisfying the performance obligation. The research and development services related to this performance obligation were performed over approximately three-year period and were completed in 2021. The amounts recognized as revenue, but not received or invoiced were recognized as a contract asset on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

 

 

12. COMMON STOCK

 

The Company has authorized 300,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of which 125,280,881 and 125,230,881 shares were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

On August 7, 2020, the Company entered into the August 2020 Sale Agreement with Jefferies pursuant to which Jefferies is serving as the Company’s sales agent to sell shares of the Company’s common stock through an “at the market offering.” As of August 7, 2020, the Company was authorized to sell up to $150,000,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the August 2020 Sale Agreement.

13. STOCK BASED AWARDS

 

In April 2014, the Company adopted the Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”).

Pursuant to the terms of an annual evergreen provision in the 2014 Plan, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2014 Plan shall automatically increase on January 1 of each year by at least seven percent (7%) of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year, or, pursuant to the terms of the 2014 Plan, in any year, the Board may determine that such increase will provide for a lesser number of shares.

 

In accordance with the terms of the 2014 Plan, and pursuant to the annual evergreen provision contained in the 2014 Plan, effective as of January 1, 2022, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2014 Plan increased by 8,766,162 shares, which was seven percent (7%) of the outstanding shares of common stock on December 31, 2021. As of January 1, 2022, the 2014 Plan had a total reserve of 34,337,004 shares and there were 16,760,151 shares available for future grants. As of September 30, 2022 there were 13,121,151 shares available for future grants.

 

In accordance with the terms of the 2014 Plan, and pursuant to the annual evergreen provision contained in the 2014 plan, effective as of January 1, 2021, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2014 Plan increased by 2,500,000 shares, which was less than seven percent (7%) of the outstanding shares of common stock on December 31, 2020.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The Company uses historical data, as well as subsequent events occurring prior to the issuance of the financial statements, to estimate option exercises and employee terminations in order to estimate its forfeiture rate. The expected term of options granted under the 2014 Plan, all of which qualify as “plain vanilla” per SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, is determined based on the simplified method due to the Company’s limited operating history, and is 6.25 years based on the average between the vesting period and the contractual life of the option. For non-employee options, the expected term is the contractual term. The risk-free rate is based on the yield of a U.S. Treasury security with a term consistent with the option.

 

The weighted average assumptions used principally in determining the fair value of options granted to employees were as follows:

The Company issued a warrant to CFF in January 2018, to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “CFF Warrant”). The CFF Warrant is exercisable at a price equal to $13.20 per share and is immediately exercisable for 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The CFF Warrant is exercisable at a price equal to $13.20 per share and all shares are vested as of September 30, 2022. The CFF Warrant expires on January 26, 2025. Any shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon exercise of the CFF Warrant will be unregistered and subject to a one-year lock-up. The CFF Warrant is classified as equity as it meets all the conditions under GAAP for equity classification. In accordance with GAAP, the Company has calculated the fair value of the warrant for initial measurement and will reassess whether equity classification for the warrant is appropriate upon any changes to the warrants or capital structure, at each balance sheet date. No such changes have occurred through September 30, 2022. The weighted average assumptions used in determining the $6,215,225 fair value of the CFF Warrant were as follows:

On July 28, 2020, in connection with the funding of the first $20,000,000 tranche, the Company issued a warrant exercisable for 86,206 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “K2 Warrant”) at an exercise price of $6.96 per share. The K2 Warrant is immediately exercisable for 86,206 shares and expires on July 28, 2030. Any shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon exercise of the K2 Warrant are permitted to be settled in unregistered shares. The K2 Warrant is classified as equity as it meets all the conditions under GAAP for equity classification. In accordance with GAAP, the Company has calculated the fair value of the warrant for initial measurement and will reassess whether equity classification for the warrant is appropriate upon any changes to the warrants or capital structure, at each balance sheet date. No such changes have occurred through September 30, 2022. The weighted average assumptions used in determining the $472,409 fair value of the K2 Warrant were as follows:

15. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

On July 28, 2020, the Company, with its subsidiary, Corbus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., as borrower, entered into a $50,000,000 secured Loan and Security Agreement with K2HV, an unrelated third party (the “Loan Agreement”) and received the first $20,000,000 tranche upon signing. The Company has determined that a prepayment feature and default feature needed to be separately valued and marked to market each reporting period after assessing the agreement under ASC 815.

 

The value of these features are determined each reporting period by taking the present value of net cash flows with and without the prepayment features. The significant assumption used to determine the fair value of the debt without any features is the discount rate which has been estimated by using published market rates of triple CCC rated public companies. All other inputs are taken from the Loan Agreement. The additional significant assumptions used when valuing the prepayment feature is the probability of a change of control event. The Company has determined the probability from December 31, 2021 to September 30, 2022 has stayed consistent. The additional significant assumption used when valuing the default feature is the probability of defaulting on the repayment of loan. The Company has determined the probability from December 31, 2021 to September 30, 2022 has remained consistent. The value of these features was determined to be approximately $133,710 at December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2022, which resulted in no expense recognized in the first nine months of 2022. The Company considers the fair value of the derivative liability to be Level 3 under the three-tier fair value hierarchy.

 

A roll forward of the fair value of the derivative liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is presented below.

Amended Loan and Security Agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC

 

On October 25, 2022, the Company, with its subsidiary, Corbus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., as borrower, entered into an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of July 28, 2020 with K2 HealthVentures LLC (“K2HV”), an unrelated third party to defer the commencement of principal repayments by a one year period from September 1, 2022 to September 1, 2023 and if the Company raises at least $30 million in net proceeds through capital raising transactions, the commencement of principal repayments will be deferred by an additional six months to March 1, 2024. Pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement, the Company paid $119,000 at the time of entering into the Amended Loan Agreement and will pay $400,000 at the maturity of the loan. In addition, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lenders may jointly elect at any time and from time to time prior to the payment in full of the loans to convert any portion (in a minimum amount of $500,000) of the principal amount of the loans then outstanding into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $9.40 per share, provided that the aggregate principal amount of loans converted by the Lenders into common stock may not exceed $5,000,000. The Amended Loan Agreement adjusts the conversion price of a $2,000,000 portion of the maximum $5,000,000 convertible amount by adjusting the conversion price of $875,000 of the loan from $9.40 per share to $0.15 per share, and $1,125,000 of the loan from $9.40 per share to $0.2625 per share.

Item 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our financial statements and the related notes and the other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, particularly those under “Risk Factors.”

Overview

 

Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Corbus”) is focused on the development of immune modulators that will have application in disease states spanning from immuno-oncology to fibrosis. Corbus’ current pipeline includes anti-integrin monoclonal antibodies that block activation of TGFβ and small molecules that activate or inhibit the endocannabinoid system. The company plans to expand its pipeline in immuno-oncology through internal efforts and business development.

 

The pipeline includes the following programs:

 

1.
Anti-integrin monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that inhibit the activation of TGFβ for the treatment of cancer and fibrosis. CRB-601 is an anti-αvβ8 mAb being developed as a potential treatment for solid tumors in combination with existing therapies, including checkpoint inhibitors. The solid tumor program is scheduled for an IND submission to the FDA in the first half of 2023. CRB-602 is a discovery stage anti-αvβ6/αvβ8 mAb currently being explored in disease indications including oncology and fibrosis.
2.
Second generation cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) inverse agonists designed to treat obesity and related metabolic diseases. In animal models of diet-induced obesity, our compounds induce weight loss both as a monotherapy and in combination with a GLP-1 agonist. The program is progressing through preclinical studies and regulatory pathway evaluation.
3.
Lenabasum, a novel, synthetic, oral molecule that selectively activates cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2). We completed a Phase 3 study in dermatomyositis in June 2021 which did not meet its primary endpoint. The National Institutes of Health-sponsored Phase 2 study of lenabasum in systemic lupus erythematosus has completed its last patient visit and the clinical database had been locked. The Company awaits topline results. The Company does not plan to conduct additional clinical studies for Lenabasum and is seeking licensing partners to fund future development.

Financial Operations Overview

We are an immunology company and have not generated any revenues from the sale of products. We have never been profitable and at September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $381,202,000. Our net losses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were approximately $8,782,000 and $2,176,000, respectively. For nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our net losses were approximately $31,468,000 and $35,380,000, respectively,

 

We expect to continue to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future. We expect our expenses to continue to decline in 2022 as compared to 2021 due to the completion of our lenabasum clinical studies and a reduction in personnel. We do not plan to conduct additional clinical studies for lenabasum. While we expect expenses to decline in 2022, we will still incur significant operating losses and accordingly we will need additional financing to support our continuing operations. We will seek to fund our operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include government grants and collaborations with third parties. Adequate additional financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategy. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, and we may never do so.

 

We expect to continue to incur operating losses for at least the next several years in connection with our ongoing activities, as we:

conduct preclinical and clinical trials for our product candidates;
continue our research and development efforts; and
manufacture drugs for clinical studies.

Revenue Recognition

 

To date, we have not generated any revenues from the sales of products. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for the marketing of lenabasum or other of our product candidates, which we expect will take a number of years and is subject to significant uncertainty.

 

We have not recognized revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized approximately $97,000 and $882,000 of revenue, respectively.

 

Amounts recognized in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were in connection with our entry on January 26, 2018 into the Cystic Fibrosis Program Related Investment Agreement (“Investment Agreement") with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (“CFF”), a non-profit drug discovery and development corporation, pursuant to which we received a development award for up to $25,000,000 in funding (the “2018 CFF Award”) to support a Phase 2b Clinical Trial (the “Phase 2b Clinical Trial”) of lenabasum in patients with cystic fibrosis of which we received $6,250,000 in the first quarter of 2018, $6,250,000 in the second quarter of 2018, $5,000,000 in the second quarter of 2019, $5,000,000 in the third quarter of 2020, and $2,500,000 in the fourth quarter of 2021, upon our achievement of a milestone related to the progress of the Phase 2b Clinical Trial, as set forth in the Investment Agreement. We received the entire $25 million from the CFF and have recorded a total of $25 million in revenue to date. We will not be recognizing revenue in the future from the 2018 CFF award.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

Revenue

 

To date, we have not generated any revenues from the sales of products. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for the marketing of lenabasum or other of our product candidates, which we expect will take a number of years and is subject to significant uncertainty.

 

We have recognized approximately $0 and $97,000 of revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Amounts recognized in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were in connection with our entry on January 26, 2018 into the Cystic Fibrosis Program Related Investment Agreement (“Investment Agreement) with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (“CFF”), a non-profit drug discovery and development corporation, pursuant to which we received a development award for up to $25 million in funding (the “2018 CFF Award”) to support a Phase 2b Clinical Trial (the “Phase 2b Clinical Trial”) of lenabasum in patients with cystic fibrosis of which we received $6.25 million in the first quarter of 2018, $6.25 million in the second quarter of 2018, $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2019, $5.0 million in the third quarter of 2020, and $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 upon our achievement of a milestone related to the progress of the Phase 2b Clinical Trial, as set forth in the Investment Agreement. We received the entire $25 million from the CFF and have recorded a total of $25 million in revenue to date. We will not be recognizing revenue in the future from the 2018 CFF award.

 

Research and Development. Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 totaled approximately $4,108,000, a decrease of $4,588,000 from the $8,696,000 recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in fiscal quarter 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily attributable to decreases of $2,247,000 in compensation costs, $966,000 in consulting costs, and lower clinical expenses of approximately $671,000 all associated with the end of lenabasum clinical studies and a corresponding reduction in headcount.

 

During 2018, the Company formed a subsidiary in each of the United Kingdom and Australia and approximately 48% and 23% of research and development expenses recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively was recorded in these entities.

 

General and Administrative. General and Administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 totaled approximately $4,073,000, a decrease of $1,204,000 from the $5,277,000 recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2021 was primarily attributable to decreases in compensation costs of $734,000 driven by reductions in headcount as the company transitioned to the pre-clinical phase and needed less support staff, as well as impairment losses of $226,000 as a result of the sublease agreement.

 

Other Income (Expense), Net. Other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $600,000 as compared to other income of approximately $11,699,000 recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease of $12,299,000 in 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily attributable to the receipt of approximately $12,300,000 from a foreign tax authority for refundable research and development credits in 2021. The current year refundable research and development credits are expected in Q4 2022.

Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

 

Revenue

 

We had recognized $0 and $882,000 in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Research and Development. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled approximately $9,894,000, a decrease of $20,788,000 from the $30,682,000 recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2021 was primarily attributable to lower clinical expenses of approximately $7,721,000, as well as decreases of $6,934,000 in compensation costs, $1,768,000 in consulting costs, and $1,156,000 in data analysis costs all associated with the end of lenabasum clinical studies and a corresponding reduction in headcount. There was also a decrease of $2,269,000 in the upfront payments made to in-license integrin drugs.

 

During 2018, the Company formed a subsidiary in each of the United Kingdom and Australia and approximately 36% and 25% of research and development expenses recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively was recorded in these entities.

 

General and Administrative. General and Administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled approximately $14,145,000, a decrease of $2,046,000 from the $16,191,000 recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2021 was primarily attributable to decreases in compensation costs of $2,183,000 driven by reductions in headcount as the company transitioned to the pre-clinical phase and needed less support staff.

 

Litigation Settlement. Litigation Settlement expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $5,000,000 as a result of the settlement with Venn Therapeutics, LLC. There was no litigation settlement for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The decrease of $13,040,000 in 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily attributable to the receipt of approximately $12,300,000 from a foreign tax authority for refundable research and development credits in 2021. The current year refundable research and development credits are expected in Q4 2022.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since inception, we have experienced negative cash flows from operations. We have financed our operations primarily through sales of equity-related securities. In addition, the majority of the costs of the SLE clinical trial has been or is expected to be funded by NIH grants and our phase 2b clinical trial in cystic fibrosis was supported by the 2018 CFF Award. At September 30, 2022, our accumulated deficit since inception was approximately $381,202,000.

 

At September 30, 2022, we had total current assets of approximately $67,348,000 and current liabilities of approximately $17,469,000, resulting in working capital of approximately $49,879,000. Of our total cash, cash equivalents, investments, and restricted cash of $66.9 million at September 30, 2022, approximately $64.1 million was held within the United States.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $30,089,000, which includes a net loss of approximately $31,468,000, adjusted for non-cash expenses of approximately $7,365,000 largely related to stock-based compensation expense, and approximately $5,987,000 of cash used by net working capital items principally due to paying down accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled approximately $18,294,000, which was principally related to sales and purchases of marketable securities.

 

Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled approximately $768,000, which was related to the repayment of short-term borrowings.

Under current SEC regulations, if at any time our public float is less than $75.0 million, and for so long as our public float remains less than $75.0 million, the amount we can raise through primary public offerings of securities in any twelve-month period using shelf registration statements is limited to an aggregate of one-third of our public float, which is referred to as the baby shelf rules. As of March 8, 2022, at the time of the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, our calculated public float was below $75.0 million and we will be subject to baby shelf rules for any offerings conducted on our shelf registration statement. As of November 8, 2022, the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates, or the public float, was $27.4 million, which was calculated based on 124,855,879 shares of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates at a price of $0.22 per share, the closing price of our common stock on September 13, 2022. As such, we will be restricted from selling more than $9.1 million of securities pursuant to a shelf registration statement in any twelve-month period, so long as the aggregate market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $75.0 million.

 

We expect our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of approximately $66.2 million at September 30, 2022 will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements through the second quarter of 2024, based on current planned expenditures.

 

We will need to raise significant additional capital to continue to fund operations and the discovery and pre-clinical costs for our product candidates. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital in the future, we may be required to undertake cost-cutting measures, including delaying or discontinuing certain clinical activities. We may seek to sell common stock, preferred stock or convertible debt securities, enter into a credit facility or another form of third-party funding or seek other debt financing. In addition, we may seek to raise cash through collaborative agreements or from government grants. The sale of equity and convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders and certain of those securities may have rights senior to those of our common shares. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of preferred stock, convertible debt securities or other debt financing, these securities or other debt could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Any other third-party funding arrangement could require us to relinquish valuable rights.

 

The source, timing and availability of any future financing will depend principally upon market conditions, and, more specifically, on the progress of our clinical development programs.

 

Funding may not be available when needed, at all, or on terms acceptable to us. Lack of necessary funds may require us, among other things, to delay, scale back or eliminate expenses including some or all of our planned clinical trials.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors, other than future royalty payments under development award agreements discussed as follows:

The UCSF Agreement may be terminated earlier in specified situations, including termination for material breach, termination by Corbus with advance notice and termination upon a party's bankruptcy.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs of expenses and related disclosures in the condensed consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current economic and industry conditions and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. This forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our critical accounting policies that involve the most judgement and complexity are those relating to:

 

stock based compensation;

accrued research and development expenses; and

right of use assets and lease liabilities;

 

 

-31-


 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock options are granted with an exercise price at no less than fair market value at the date of the grant. The stock options normally expire ten years from the date of grant. Stock option awards vest upon terms determined by our Board.

 

We recognize compensation costs resulting from the issuance of stock-based awards to employees, members of our Board and consultants. The fair value of each option grant was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value is amortized as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. We estimate volatility by analyzing the volatility of the trading price of our common stock. We use historical data, as well as subsequent events occurring prior to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements, to estimate option exercise and employee forfeitures within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted to employees under our stock plans is based on the average of the contractual term (generally 10 years) and the vesting period (generally 48 months). The expected term of options granted under the 2014 Plan, all of which qualify as “plain vanilla” per SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, is based on the average of the 6.25 years. For non-employee options, the expected term is the contractual term. The risk-free rate is based on the yield of a U.S. Treasury security with a term consistent with the option. We estimate the forfeiture rate at the time of grant and revise it, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures were estimated based on management’s expectation through industry knowledge and historical data. We have never paid dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we have assumed no dividend yield for purposes of estimating the fair value of our share-based compensation.

 

Accrued Research and Development Expenses

As part of the process of preparing financial statements, we are required to estimate and accrue expenses, the largest of which are research and development expenses. This process involves: communicating with our applicable personnel to identify services that have been performed on our behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service when we have not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of actual cost; estimating and accruing expenses in our financial statements as of each balance sheet date based on facts and circumstances known to us at the time; and periodically confirming the accuracy of our estimates with selected service providers and making adjustments, if necessary.

Examples of estimated research and development expenses that we accrue include:

 

fees paid to CROs in connection with nonclinical studies;
fees paid to contract manufacturers in connection with the production of lenabasum for clinical trials;
fees paid to CRO and research institutions in connection with conducting of clinical studies; and
professional service fees for consulting and related services.

We base our expense accruals related to clinical studies on our estimates of the services performed pursuant to contracts with multiple research institutions and clinical research organizations that conduct and manage clinical studies on our behalf. The financial terms of these agreements vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows. Payments under some of these contracts depend on factors, such as the successful enrollment of patients and the completion of clinical study milestones. Our service providers invoice us monthly in arrears for services performed. In accruing service fees, we estimate the time period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period. If we do not identify costs that we have begun to incur or if we underestimate or overestimate the level of services performed or the costs of these services, our actual expenses could differ from our estimates.

To date, we have not experienced significant changes in our estimates of accrued research and development expenses following each applicable reporting period. However, due to the nature of estimates, we cannot assure you that we will not make changes to our estimates in the future as we become aware of additional information regarding the status or conduct of our clinical studies and other research activities.

We lease our office space. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities, current and noncurrent in our consolidated balance sheets.

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 the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. This is the rate we would have to pay if borrowing on a collateralized basis over a similar term to each lease. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has subleased a portion of its leased facility under an agreement considered to be an operating lease according to GAAP. The Company has not been legally released from its primary obligations under the original lease and therefore it continues to account for the original lease as it did before commencement of the sublease. The Company will record both fixed and variable payments received from the sublessee in its statement of operations on a straight-line basis as an offset to rent expense.

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Our Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
