Financial Statements for the

Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 and

Independent Auditors Report

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

 

The Board of Directors and the Shareholders

CVie Therapeutics Limited

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of CVie Therapeutics Limited (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, mezzanine equity and shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements (“financial statements”).

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditors’ Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net deficit amount in its shareholders’ equity, and has stated that substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 4. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND 2016

(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)


 

1.

THE COMPANY AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

CVie Therapeutics Limited (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), incorporated in Taiwan on September 17, 2013, is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing first-in-class innovative drugs with novel mechanisms of action to improve outcomes for patients with cardiovascular and renal diseases, including heart failure and genotyping-specific hypertension. We also have a laboratory, that runs pre-clinical and research and development activities, in Italy.

 

We were formerly known as “CVie International Limited” and, effective May 19, 2015, we changed our name to “CVie Therapeutics Limited” to better reflect our stage of operations and development.

 

We were a wholly-owned subsidiary of CVie Therapeutics Company Limited (“CVie Cayman”). On August 5, 2015, we went through organizational restructuring which made CVie Cayman our wholly-owned subsidiary.

 

On March 2, 2016, we spun off CVie Cayman to better focus on our research and development business. Thus, we reduced our capital by returning our entire interest in CVie Cayman to the shareholders. Please refer to Note 17 for more information.

 

On December 21, 2018, our shareholders and CVie Investment Limited (“CVie Investment”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which CVie Investment acquired from our shareholders all of our outstanding common shares and Series A preferred shares. As a result, we are a wholly-owned subsidiary of CVie Investment. Immediately after the closing of the stock purchase, CVie Investment, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (“Windtree”) and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Windtree (the “Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into CVie Investment, with CVie Investment surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Windtree.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

- 7 -

 

 

Foreign Currency

 

Our foreign subsidiaries use their foreign currency as their functional currency. Functional currency assets and liabilities are translated into New Taiwan dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Resulting translation gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”), until the substantial disposition of a subsidiary, at which time accumulated translation gains or losses are reclassified into net loss. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) within shareholders’ equity.

 

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in other expense, net, on the statements of operation and comprehensive loss. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, net foreign currency transaction gains and losses were net gain $1,392 thousand and net loss $985 thousand, respectively.

 

Cash

 

Our cash consists of demand deposits with banks or financial institutions.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments primarily consist of cash, refundable security deposit, short-term debt, accrued expenses and due to related parties. They are stated at their carrying value, which we believe approximates fair value due to the short period to the expected receipt or payment date of such amounts.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (generally 3 to 5 years). Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with authoritative guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances, which indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was no impairment of the value of the Company’s long-lived assets.

 

Retirement Benefit Plans

 

Our employees in Taiwan adopt a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (the “LPA”), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, we make monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.

 

Our employees in our Italy laboratory are members of a state-managed retirement benefit plan operated by the government of Italy. We are required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll costs to the retirement benefit scheme to fund the benefits. Our obligation with respect to the retirement benefit plan is to make the specified contributions.

 

Payments to the plan are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.

 

- 8 -

 

 

Mezzanine Equity

 

When determining the classification and measurement of our Series A Preferred share, we comply with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Preferred share subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable preferred share (including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, preferred share is classified as permanent equity.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We have not yet generated any revenues from the sale of goods or from the rendering of services. Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, we will recognize any revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and there is reasonable assurance that the related amounts are collectible in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition.

 

Employees’ Compensation and Remuneration of Directors and Supervisors

 

Employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors are accrued at the rates no less than 10% and no higher than 1%, respectively, of net profit before income tax, employees’ compensation, and remuneration of directors and supervisors. We incurred net loss for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016; therefore, no employees’ compensation, and remuneration of directors and supervisors were accrued.

 

If there is a change in the amounts before the annual financial statements were authorized, the differences are recorded as a change in expenses. If there is a change in the amounts after the annual financial statements were authorized, the differences are recorded as a change in accounting estimate.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred and include costs paid to third-party contractors to perform research, conduct clinical trials and develop and manufacture drug materials.

 

Costs incurred related to the purchase of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) for early-stage products or products that are not commercially viable and ready for use, or have no alternative future use, are charged to expense in the period incurred. Costs incurred related to the licensing of products that have not yet received regulatory approval to be marketed, or that are not commercially viable and ready for use, or have no alternative future use, are charged to expense in the period incurred.

 

In July 2017, we purchased patents of our two new drugs, Rostafuroxin and Istaroxime, for our IPR&D from third parties at a total amount of $120,520 thousand. The patents have no alternative future use, and thus we expensed the purchase costs.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Because we have never realized a profit, management has fully provided with allowance the net deferred tax asset since realization is not assured.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

ASC 606 (ASU 2014-09, 2016-10 and 2016-12)

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new standard related to revenue recognition. Under the new standard, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued an amendment to defer the effective date. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 for nonpublic company, and early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March and April 2016, the FASB issued two accounting updates to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations, performance obligations and the licensing. In addition, the FASB issued another accounting update in May 2016 to address narrow-scope improvements to the guidance on collectability, noncash consideration, and completed contracts at transition and provides a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition. The new guidance is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application. Since we do not have revenue, the adoption of this new standard will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

 

ASC 740 (Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17)

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued an accounting update to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendment requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in this guidance. This amendment is effective prospectively or retrospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 for nonpublic company, and early application is permitted. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

 

ASC 825 (ASU 2016-01)

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting update regarding the subsequent measurement of equity investment. The amendment requires all equity investment to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income other than those accounted for under equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee. The amendment also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair value by requiring assessment for impairment qualitatively and eliminating the complexity of the other-than-temporary impairment guidance. For financial reporting, the amendment requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 for nonpublic company, and early application is prohibited. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

 

- 10 -

 

 

ASC 842 (ASU 2016-02 and 2018-01)

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard regarding leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases other than that the entity elects the short-term lease recognition and measurement exemption. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures will be enhanced to better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. In January 2018, the FASB issued an amendment permits an entity to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under Topic 842 land easements that exist or expired before the entity’s adoption of Topic 842 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840, the current standard regarding leases. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 for nonpublic company, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

 

ASC 326 (ASU 2016-13)

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting update to amend the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value through profit and loss. The amendment introduces a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost and requires a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate expected credit loss. In addition, under the amendment, an entity recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost and available-for-sale debt securities rather than the current methodology of delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 for nonpublic company, and earlier adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

LIQUIDITY RISKS AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

 

As of December 31, 2017, we had cash of $5,570 thousand and current liabilities of $155,089 thousand. Since inception, we have not generated revenue from the sale of products and have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations, including a net loss of $287,066 thousand and $116,046 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and cash used in operations of $254,726 thousand and $133,252 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

We have incurred operating losses and has an accumulated deficit as a result of ongoing efforts to develop product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical trials and providing general and administrative support for these operations. We expect to continue to incur losses and will require additional capital from our parent company, Windtree, to support our operations, develop our product candidates, and satisfy existing obligations, and we do not currently have sufficient cash and cash equivalents for at least the next year following the date that the financial statements are issued. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, Windtree plans to secure additional capital through a combination of public or private equity offerings, and strategic transactions, including potential alliances and collaborations, as well as potential strategic corporate transactions. If such transactions are not available, or if available, Windtree remains unable to secure sufficient capital to develop our product candidates, we would likely not have sufficient cash resources and liquidity to fund our business operations, which could significantly limit our ability to continue our operations and develop our product candidates. If Windtree is unable to raise the required capital, we may be forced to curtail some or all of our activities and, ultimately, cease operations. Accordingly, management has concluded that substantial doubt exists with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern through one year after the issuance of the accompanying financial statements.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments relating to recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

 

Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

 

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

 

Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Our financial instruments primarily consist of cash, refundable security deposit, short-term debt, accrued expenses, and due to related parties. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the carrying values approximated their fair values due to the short period to the expected receipt or payment date of such amounts.

MEZZANINE EQUITY

 

The Company’s board of directors resolved on April 12, 2017 to issue 2,750 thousand Series A Preferred shares (the “Series A”) in cash, with a par value of $10, for a consideration of $82.05 per share. The record date of issuing Series A was June 2, 2017, and the registration with the government was completed on June 30, 2017. The rights, obligations and other important conditions for issuing the Series A are as follows:

 

 

a.

The Series A are non-cumulative. When we distribute earnings or capital surplus as dividend, the Series A shareholders have the same right to receive dividends as the holders of common share and have the same distribution order and ratio.

 

- 14 -

 

 

 

b.

In an event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the proceeds shall be used first to pay the Series A shareholders their original investment amount plus accrued dividends, if any. Then, any remaining proceeds are distributed to the holders of Series A and common share on a pro rata basis.

 

 

c.

In an event that we are merged by or become a subsidiary of other company in a business combination or that we sell, lease, transfer, exclusively license, or by any other means dispose all or substantially all of our assets, we should redeem the entire outstanding Series A at the price described above, unless 60% of Series A shareholders elect not to do so.

 

 

d.

The Series A shareholders have rights to vote and be elected in a shareholders’ meeting, and the determination of number of votes is the same as the common shares.

 

 

e.

If we intend to issue new common shares for capital increase in cash, and the price per share is lower than the subscription price of Series A share, we shall obtain an approval from the Series A shareholders in a meeting.

 

 

f.

We shall not undertake any of the following decisions or actions without the consent of at least 50% of the Series A shareholders:

 

 

1)

Liquidate, dissolve or wind-up; merge by or become a subsidiary of other company in a business combination; or sell, lease, transfer, exclusively license, or by any other means dispose all or substantially all of our assets.

 

 

2)

Amend, alter, or repeal any provision of the Articles of Incorporation in a manner adverse to the Series A shareholders.

 

 

3)

Issue any preferred share having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on parity with the Series A shares, or issue another Series A preferred shares.

 

 

4)

Purchase or redeem or pay any dividend on any capital share that have higher priority than the Series A.

 

 

5)

Issue any debt security, except for the needs for equipment leases or bank loan.

 

 

6)

Acquire or increase investment in any subsidiary, except for our wholly-owned subsidiary, or dispose of any subsidiary or all or substantially all of any subsidiary’s assets.

 

 

7)

Increase or decrease the number of directors stated in the Articles of Incorporation.

 

 

8)

Issue common shares at a price lower than the Series A’s issuance price, or issue convertible preferred shares or convertible corporate bonds with a conversion price lower than the Series A’s issuance price.

 

 

g.

The Series A shareholders have the right to convert their one Series A share to one common share, in whole or in part, at any time. Within the scope of relevant regulations, the anti-dilution provisions applicable to common shares, including the preemptive right when issuing new shares, shall be also applicable to the Series A.

 

 

h.

Three years after the issuance date, the Series A shareholders may request us to redeem the entire class of Series A at the price of original investment amount plus accrued dividends, if any. The redemption should be paid in three years and equal portion.

 

Our Series A have certain redemption rights that we consider to be outside of our control. Accordingly, the Series A are presented as temporary equity on the balance sheets.

14.

SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

 

a.

Common share

 

On February 6, 2016, the Company’s board of directors resolved to carry out a capital reduction plan that reduced the Company’s capital by $110,000 thousand, eliminated 11,000 thousand shares, and returned the capital to the shareholders by properties other than cash, i.e., the Company’s entire equity interest (13,500 thousand shares) in CVie Cayman. The reduction rate was 35.03%, and the transaction price was $8.15 per share; please refer to Note 17 for more information. The capital reduction was resolved in the special shareholders’ meeting held on March 2, 2016. The record date of the capital reduction was March 2, 2016, and the registration with the government was completed on March 25, 2016.

 

 

b.

Additional paid-in capital (“APIC”)

 

Our APIC consist of $124 thousand arising from shares issued in excess of par and $7,959 arising from the difference between consideration received from disposing the subsidiary and the carrying amount of the subsidiary’s net assets. Please refer to Note 17 for more information on the disposal of subsidiary. The above APIC may be used to offset a deficit, and when we have no deficit, such APIC may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to share capital (limited to a certain percentage of our APIC and once a year.

 

 

c.

Accumulated deficit and dividend policy

 

In accordance with the amendments to the Company Act in May 2015, the recipients of dividends and bonuses are limited to shareholders and do not include employees. The Company made consequential amendments to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) including the policy on dividend distribution and the addition of the policy on distribution of employees’ compensation; the amendments were resolved in the special shareholders’ meeting held on March 2, 2016.

 

Under the dividend policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Company made profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Company’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for distribution of dividends and bonus to shareholders.

 

The Company’s dividend policy is in line with the current and future development plans, taking into account the investment environment, capital requirements, and domestic and foreign competition conditions as well as the interests of shareholders. When making appropriation of earnings, dividends to shareholders should not be less than 50% of distributable earnings; when, the accumulated earnings is less than 50% of the Company’s paid-in capital, distribution may not be made. Distribution of earnings can be made in cash or in share, of which cash dividend shall not be less than 30% of total dividends declared.

 

Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. Legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

 

Except for non-Taiwan resident shareholders, all shareholders receiving dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Company.

 

- 16 -

 

 

There were no appropriations of earnings for 2017 and 2016 because the Company had accumulated deficit.

 

The loss offsetting proposals for 2017 and 2016 were resolved in the shareholders’ meetings held on June 29, 2018 and June 27, 2017, respectively.

DISPOSAL OF SUBSIDIARY

 

Our board of directors and special shareholders’ meeting resolved on February 6 and March 2, 2016, respectively, to carry out a capital reduction plan that reduced our capital by $110,000 thousand, eliminated 11,000 thousand outstanding shares, and returned the capital to the shareholders by our entire interest in CVie Cayman that amount to 13,500 thousand shares. The reduction percentage was 35.03%, and the record date of capital reduction was March 2, 2016. The transaction price of $8.15 per share was determined based on CVie Cayman’s unaudited net asset value per share on January 31, 2016, and we engaged an independent accountant in assisting the reasonableness of the price.

 

The disposal of CVie Cayman was accounted as among entities under common control, and no gain or loss was recognized. Therefore, we recorded a credit of $7,959 thousand to the APIC.

Research and development

 

We extensively rely on contract research organizations (“CROs”), including Zhaoke Pharmaceutical (Hefei) Co., Ltd. (“Zhaoke HF”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Lee’s Holding, to perform most of our preclinical and clinical trial activities, including document preparation, site identification, screening and preparation, pre-study visits, training, program management and bioanalytical analysis.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018

(In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)


 

 

1.

THE COMPANY AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

CVie Therapeutics Limited (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), incorporated in Taiwan on September 17, 2013, is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing first-in-class innovative drugs with novel mechanisms of action to improve outcomes for patients with cardiovascular and renal diseases, including heart failure and genotyping-specific hypertension. We also have a laboratory, that runs pre-clinical and research and development activities, in Italy.

 

We were formerly known as “CVie International Limited” and, effective May 19, 2015, we changed our name to “CVie Therapeutics Limited” to better reflect our stage of operations and development.

 

We were a wholly-owned subsidiary of CVie Therapeutics Company Limited (“CVie Cayman”). On August 5, 2015, we went through organizational restructuring which made CVie Cayman our wholly-owned subsidiary.

 

On March 2, 2016, we spun off CVie Cayman to better focus on our research and development business. Thus, we reduced our capital by returning our entire interest in CVie Cayman to the shareholders.

 

On December 21, 2018, our shareholders and CVie Investment Limited (“CVie Investment”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which CVie Investment acquired from our shareholders all of our outstanding common shares and Series A preferred shares. As a result, we are a wholly-owned subsidiary of CVie Investment. Immediately after the closing of the stock purchase, CVie Investment, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (“Windtree”) and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Windtree (the “Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into CVie Investment, with CVie Investment surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Windtree.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments that the management believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. These interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full fiscal year or for any subsequent interim period.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

- 4 -

 

 

Foreign Currency

 

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net, on the statements of operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, net foreign currency transaction gain was $1,777 thousand and $977 thousand, respectively.

 

Cash

 

Our cash consists of demand deposits with banks or financial institutions.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments primarily consist of cash, accounts receivable, refundable security deposit, short-term debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and due to related parties. They are stated at their carrying value, which we believe approximates fair value due to the short period to the expected receipt or payment date of such amounts.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are trade receivables due from consignment sales. Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowance for doubtful accounts and commissions payable to the consignee. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable at the date of the financial statements, assessments of collectability based on an evaluation of historical and anticipated trends, the financial condition of our consignee and an evaluation of the impact of economic conditions.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist of finished goods held for sale stated at the lower of cost or market, which means current replacement cost provided that if should not (1) exceed net realizable value or (2) be lower than net realizable value less a normal profit margin. Inventory cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. We periodically review the composition of inventories in order to identify obsolete, slow-moving or otherwise unsaleable items. If unsaleable items are observed and there are no alternate uses for the inventory, we record a write-down to net realizable value in the period that the impairment is first recognized.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (generally 3 to 5 years). Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Upon disposal of property and equipment, the accounts are relieved of the costs and related accumulated depreciation and amortization, and resulting gains or losses are recorded in other income (expense), net, on the statements of operations.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with authoritative guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances, which indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. For the year ended September 30, 2018, there was no impairment of the value of the Company's long-lived assets.

 

- 5 -

 

 

Retirement Benefit Plans

 

Our employees in Taiwan adopt a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (the “LPA”), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, we make monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages.

 

Our employees in our Italy laboratory are members of a state-managed retirement benefit plan operated by the government of Italy. We are required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll costs to the retirement benefit scheme to fund the benefits. Our obligation with respect to the retirement benefit plan is to make the specified contributions.

 

Payments to the plan are recognized as expenses when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.

 

Mezzanine Equity

 

When determining the classification and measurement of our Series A Preferred share. We comply with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Preferred share subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable preferred share (including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, preferred share is classified as permanent equity.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We sell our products through consignment arrangement with our sole distributor (the “Consignee”), a third party. We recognize revenue when sales to ultimate customers occur, at which point control of the products transfers from the consignor to the end customers, in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from contracts with customers.

 

Employees’ Compensation and Remuneration of Directors and Supervisors

 

Employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors and supervisors are accrued at the rates no less than 10% and no higher than 1%, respectively, of net profit before income tax, employees’ compensation, and remuneration of directors and supervisors. We incurred net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017; therefore, no employees’ compensation, and remuneration of directors and supervisors were accrued.

 

If there is a change in the amounts before the annual financial statements were authorized, the differences are recorded as a change in expenses. If there is a change in the amounts after the annual financial statements were authorized, the differences are recorded as a change in accounting estimate.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred and include costs paid to third-party contractors to perform research, conduct clinical trials and develop and manufacture drug materials.

 

Costs incurred related to the purchase of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) for early-stage products or products that are not commercially viable and ready for use, or have no alternative future use, are charged to expense in the period incurred. Costs incurred related to the licensing of products that have not yet received regulatory approval to be marketed, or that are not commercially viable and ready for use, or have no alternative future use, are charged to expense in the period incurred.

 

- 6 -

 

 

In July 2017, we purchased patents of our two new drugs, Rostafuroxin and Istaroxime, for our IPR&D from third parties at a total amount of $120,520 thousand. The patents have no alternative future use, and thus we expensed the purchase costs.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Because we have never realized a profit, management has fully provided with allowance the net deferred tax asset since realization is not assured.

 

Concentration of Supplier and Credit Risk

 

We currently sell only one product that is purchased from a single supplier, Lee's Pharmaceutical (Hong Kong) Limited (“Lee's HK”), a subsidiary of Lee’s Holding. If delivery of such product from Lee's HK was interrupted for any reason, we may be unable to ship our commercial products.

 

We are potentially subject to a concentration of credit risk with respect to the accounts receivable that is due from our single consignee. If the financial condition and operations of the consignee deteriorate, our risk of collection could increase substantially.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

ASC 606 (ASU 2014-09, 2016-10 and 2016-12)

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new standard related to revenue recognition. Under the new standard, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued an amendment to defer the effective date. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 for nonpublic company, and early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March and April 2016, the FASB issued two accounting updates to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations, performance obligations and the licensing. In addition, the FASB issued another accounting update in May 2016 to address narrow-scope improvements to the guidance on collectability, noncash consideration, and completed contracts at transition and provides a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition. The new guidance is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application. Since we began to generate revenue from sale of product in 2018, we elected to early adopt this amendment. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

 

- 7 -

 

 

ASC 740 (Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17)

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued an accounting update to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendment requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in this guidance. This amendment is effective prospectively or retrospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 for nonpublic company, and early application is permitted. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

ASC 825 (ASU 2016-01)

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting update regarding the subsequent measurement of equity investment. The amendment requires all equity investment to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income other than those accounted for under equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee. The amendment also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair value by requiring assessment for impairment qualitatively and eliminating the complexity of the other-than-temporary impairment guidance. For financial reporting, the amendment requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 for nonpublic company, and early application is prohibited. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

 

ASC 842 (ASU 2016-02 and 2018-01)

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard regarding leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases other than that the entity elects the short-term lease recognition and measurement exemption. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures will be enhanced to better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. In January 2018, the FASB issued an amendment permits an entity to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under Topic 842 land easements that exist or expired before the entity’s adoption of Topic 842 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840, the current standard regarding leases. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 for nonpublic company, and early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt these standards on the effective date by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on January 1, 2019.

 

As we continue to evaluate the impact of the adoption of these standards, we anticipate recognition of additional assets and corresponding liabilities related to leases on our balance sheets with no material impact to our statements of operation. We plan to elect the practical expedients upon transition that will retain the lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to the adoption of these standards. We will not reassess whether any contracts entered into prior to the adoption are leases. We are in the process of implementing a new lease accounting system and updating our controls and procedures for maintaining and accounting for our lease portfolio under the new guidance.

 

- 8 -

 

 

ASC 326 (ASU 2016-13)

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting update to amend the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value through profit and loss. The amendment introduces a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost and requires a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate expected credit loss. In addition, under the amendment, an entity recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost and available-for-sale debt securities rather than the current methodology of delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 for nonpublic company, and earlier adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and financial statement disclosures.

LIQUIDITY RISKS AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

 

As of September 30, 2018, we had cash of $1,974 thousand and current liabilities of $260,339 thousand. In June 2018, we started to generate revenue from sale of product, though the gross profit from the sales was not able to cover our operating expenses. Thus, we have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations, including a net loss of $105,605 thousand and $220,340 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and cash used in operations of $80,734 thousand and $230,500 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

We have incurred operating losses and has an accumulated deficit as a result of ongoing efforts to develop product candidates, including conducting preclinical and clinical trials and providing general and administrative support for these operations. We expect to continue to incur losses and will require additional capital from our parent company, Windtree, to support our operations, develop our product candidates, and satisfy existing obligations, and we do not currently have sufficient cash and cash equivalents for at least the next year following the date that the financial statements are issued. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, Windtree plans to secure additional capital through a combination of public or private equity offerings, and strategic transactions, including potential alliances and collaborations, as well as potential strategic corporate transactions. If such transactions are not available, or if available, Windtree remains unable to secure sufficient capital to develop our product candidates, we would likely not have sufficient cash resources and liquidity to fund our business operations, which could significantly limit our ability to continue our operations and develop our product candidates. If Windtree is unable to raise the required capital, we may be forced to curtail some or all of our activities and, ultimately, cease operations. Accordingly, management has concluded that substantial doubt exists with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern through one year after the issuance of the accompanying financial statements.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments relating to recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

 

- 9 -

 

 

Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

 

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

 

Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Our financial instruments primarily consist of cash, accounts receivable, refundable security deposit, short-term debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and due to related parties. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the carrying values approximated their fair values due to the short period to the expected receipt or payment date of such amounts.

 

 

6.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

MEZZANINE EQUITY

 

The Company’s board of directors resolved on April 12, 2017 to issue 2,750 thousand Series A Preferred shares (the “Series A”) in cash, with a par value of $10, for a consideration of $82.05 per share. The record date of issuing Series A was June 2, 2017, and the registration with the government was completed on June 30, 2017. The rights, obligations and other important conditions for issuing the Series A are as follows:

 

 

a.

The Series A are non-cumulative. When we distribute earnings or capital surplus as dividend, the Series A shareholders have the same right to receive dividends as the holders of common share and have the same distribution order and ratio;

 

- 12 -

 

 

 

b.

In an event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the proceeds shall be used first to pay the Series A shareholders their original investment amount plus accrued dividends, if any. Then, any remaining proceeds are distributed to the holders of Series A and common share shareholders on a pro rata basis.

 

 

c.

In an event that we are merged by or become a subsidiary of other company in a business combination or that we sell, lease, transfer, exclusively license, or by any other means dispose all or substantially all of our assets, we should redeem the entire outstanding Series A at the price described above, unless 60% of Series A shareholders elect not to do so.

 

 

d.

The Series A shareholders have rights to vote and be elected in a shareholders’ meeting, and the determination of number of votes is the same as the common shares.

 

e.

If we intend to issue new common shares for capital increase in cash, and the price per share is lower than the subscription price of Series A share, we shall obtain an approval from the Series A shareholders in a meeting.

 

 

f.

We shall not undertake any of the following decisions or actions without the consent of at least 50% of the Series A shareholders:

 

 

1)

Liquidate, dissolve or wind-up; merge by or become a subsidiary of other company in a business combination; or sell, lease, transfer, exclusively license, or by any other means dispose all or substantially all of our assets.

 

 

2)

Amend, alter, or repeal any provision of the Articles of Incorporation in a manner adverse to the Series A shareholders.

 

 

3)

Issue any preferred share having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on parity with the Series A shares, or issue another Series A preferred shares.

 

 

4)

Purchase or redeem or pay any dividend on any capital share that have higher priority than the Series A.

 

 

5)

Issue any debt security, except for the needs for equipment leases or bank loan.

 

 

6)

Acquire or increase investment in any subsidiary, except for our wholly-owned subsidiary, or dispose of any subsidiary or all or substantially all of any subsidiary’s assets.

 

 

7)

Increase or decrease the number of directors stated in the Articles of Incorporation.

 

 

8)

Issue common shares at a price lower than the Series A’s issuance price, or issue convertible preferred shares or convertible corporate bonds with a conversion price lower than the Series A’s issuance price.

 

 

g.

The Series A shareholders have the right to convert their one Series A share for one common share, in whole or in part, at any time. Within the scope of relevant regulations, the anti-dilution provisions applicable to common shares, including the preemptive right when issuing new shares, shall be also applicable to the Series A.

 

 

h.

Three years after the issuance date, the Series A shareholders may request us to redeem the entire class of Series A at the price of original investment amount plus accrued dividends, if any. The redemption should be paid in three years and equal portion.

 

Our Series A have certain redemption rights that we consider to be outside of our control. Accordingly, the Series A are presented as temporary equity on the balance sheets.

15.

SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

 

a.

Common share

 

On February 6, 2016, the Company’s board of directors resolved to carry out a capital reduction plan that reduced the Company’s capital by $110,000 thousand, eliminated 11,000 thousand shares, and returned the capital to the shareholders by properties other than cash, i.e., the Company’s entire equity interest (13,500 thousand shares) in CVie Cayman. The reduction rate was 35.03%, and the transaction price was $8.15 per share. The capital reduction was resolved in the special shareholders’ meeting held on March 2, 2016. The record date of the capital reduction was March 2, 2016, and the registration with the government was completed on March 25, 2016.

 

 

b.

Additional paid-in capital (“APIC”)

 

Our APIC consist of $124 thousand arising from shares issued in excess of par and $7,959 arising from the difference between consideration received and the carrying amount of the subsidiary’s net assets during actual disposal transactions as described in the above capital reduction and return of capital in 2016. The above APIC may be used to offset a deficit, and when we have no deficit, such APIC may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to share capital (limited to a certain percentage of our APIC and once a year.

 

 

c.

Accumulated deficit and dividend policy

 

Under the dividend policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Company made profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Company’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for distribution of dividends and bonus to shareholders.

 

The Company’s dividend policy is in line with the current and future development plans, taking into account the investment environment, capital requirements, and domestic and foreign competition conditions as well as the interests of shareholders. When making appropriation of earnings, dividends to shareholders should not be less than 50% of distributable earnings; when, the accumulated earnings is less than 50% of the Company’s paid-in capital, distribution may not be made. Distribution of earnings can be made in cash or in share, of which cash dividend shall not be less than 30% of total dividends declared.

 

Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. Legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

 

Except for non-Taiwan resident shareholders, all shareholders receiving dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Company.

 

There were no appropriations of earnings for 2017 and 2016 because the Company had accumulated deficit.

INCOME TAX

 

 

a.

The major components of tax expense recognized in profit or loss

 

The reconciliation of income tax benefit calculated at the statutory rate statutory tax rate with income tax expense recognized in profit or loss is summarized as follows:

Income tax expense recognized in profit or loss

  $ -     $ -  

 

The statutory income tax rate is 20% and 17% for 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

The Income Tax Act in Taiwan was amended in 2018 and the corporate income tax rate was adjusted from 17% to 20% effective in 2018. In addition, the rate of the corporate surtax applicable to 2018 unappropriated earnings has been reduced from 10% to 5%. This change of income tax rate increased our deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance by $17,050 thousand.

 

 

b.

Deferred income tax

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

We are in a net deferred tax asset position at September 30, 2018, December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 before the consideration of a valuation allowance. Because we have never realized a profit, management has fully provided with allowance the net deferred tax asset since realization is not assured.

Income tax assessments

 

Our tax returns through 2017 have been assessed by the tax authorities.

b.

Research and development

 

We extensively rely on contract research organizations (“CROs”), including Zhaoke Pharmaceutical (Hefei) Co., Ltd. (“Zhaoke HF”) and Zhaoke Pharmaceutical (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd. (“Zhaoke GZ”), subsidiaries of Lee’s Holding, to perform most of our preclinical and clinical trial activities, including document preparation, site identification, screening and preparation, pre-study visits, training, program management and bioanalytical analysis.

Exhibit 99.3

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

On December 21, 2018, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Windtree”) and WT Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with CVie Investments Limited (“CVie”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into CVie, with CVie surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company will operate CVie, and its wholly-owned subsidiary CVie Therapeutics Limited (“CVie Therapeutics”), a Taiwan corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of China and CVie's operating company, as a business division focused on development of drug product candidates in cardiovascular diseases. 

 

The Merger was undertaken by the Company as part of a strategic initiative to create stockholder value that resulted from a multi-year process focused on identifying strategic opportunities, including potential strategic alliances, collaborations (primarily outside the United States), joint development opportunities, acquisitions, technology licensing arrangements, as well as potential combinations (including by merger or acquisition) or other corporate transactions.

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), to CVie’s former shareholders, at an exchange ratio of 0.3512 share of Common Stock for each share of CVie outstanding prior to the Merger, resulting in the issuance of 16,265,060 shares of Common Stock being issued in exchange for the shares of CVie. The Merger closed on December 21, 2018. The preliminary purchase price for the CVie acquisition was approximately $67.5 million.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements included herein use the acquisition method of accounting, with the Company treated as the acquirer. The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and upon assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. A final determination of the purchase price and allocation thereof to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed has not been made and, therefore, the allocation reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be considered preliminary and is subject to the completion of a more comprehensive valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final determination of the purchase price and allocation thereof could differ from the pro forma information included herein. Amounts preliminarily allocated to intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, inventory, and goodwill may change significantly, and amortization methods and useful lives may differ from the assumptions that have been used in this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, any of which could result in a material change in operating expenses.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 are based on the separate historical financial statements of the Company and CVie Therapeutics after giving effect to the acquisition and the assumptions and preliminary pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet presents the Company’s historical financial position combined with CVie Therapeutics as if the acquisition and financing had occurred on September 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are presented as if the acquisition and financing had occurred on January 1, 2017 and combines the historical results of the Company and CVie Therapeutics for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for year ended December 31, 2017. The historical financial results have been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are directly attributable to the acquisition, factually supportable, and with respect to the statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results of the companies. 

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are provided for illustrative purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the results that would have been achieved had the acquisition been completed as of the date indicated or that may be achieved in the future and should not be taken as representative of future consolidated results of operations or financial condition of the Company. Furthermore, no effect has been given in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for synergistic benefits and potential cost savings, if any, that may be realized through the combination of the companies or the costs that may be incurred in integrating their operations.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read together with the accompanying notes, the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30,2018, and the historical financial statements of CVie Therapeutics and accompanying notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, included in Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.

Description of Transaction and Basis of Presentation

 

On December 21, 2018, the Company completed the purchase of CVie in a non-taxable transaction. The aggregate purchase price is approximately $67.5 million, which is comprised of the issuance of approximately 16.3 million shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, of Windtree (the “Consideration Shares”). The fair value of the common stock was determined based on the closing price on December 20, 2018, of $4.15, as outlined within the Merger Agreement.

 

For the purposes of these pro forma financial statements, the estimated aggregate purchase price has been preliminarily allocated based on an estimate of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. The allocation of the estimated acquisition consideration for CVie is based on estimates, assumptions, valuations and other studies which have not yet been finalized in order to make a definitive allocation. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed could differ materially from the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

 

The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary estimated aggregate purchase price to the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired as of December 21, 2018 (in thousands):

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statement Adjustments

 

The pro forma adjustments are preliminary, based on estimates, and are subject to change as more information becomes available and after final analyses of the fair values of both tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are completed. Accordingly, the final fair value adjustments may be materially different from those presented herein.

 

The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are: (i) directly attributable to the transaction; (ii) factually supportable; and (iii) with respect to the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the business combination.

 

The business combination was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. As the acquirer for accounting purposes, the Company has estimated the fair value of CVie’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

 

The pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the consolidated company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the acquisition occurred on the dates indicated. They also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the consolidated company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

 

 

 

 

The pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect the realization of any expected cost savings or other synergies from the acquisition of CVie as a result of restructuring activities and other planned cost savings initiatives following the completion of the business combination.

 

There were no material intercompany balances or transactions between the Company and CVie as of the dates and for the periods of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The Company has not identified any pre-acquisition contingencies where the related asset, liability or impairment is probable and the amount of the asset, liability or impairment can be reasonably estimated. Prior to the end of the purchase price allocation period, if information becomes available which would indicate it is probable that such events have occurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, such items will be included in the purchase price allocation.

 

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are as follows:

 

 

a.

Included in this amount is approximately $32.0 million of cash proceeds from the private placement financing the Company entered into in connection with the transaction. On December 21, 2018, the Company agreed to issue and sell approximately 11.8 million shares of Common Stock to select institutional investors at a price per share of $3.31312, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $39.0 million. As part of the private placement financing, investors also received: (i) Series F warrants to purchase approximately 2.0 million shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $3.68 per share and (ii) Series G warrants to purchase approximately 3.9 million shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $4.05 per share (the “Warrants”). The difference between the aggregate purchase price of $39.0 million and the net cash proceeds of $32.0 million represents the conversion of certain of the Company’s payables and debt into Common Stock. See Footnote e for discussion.

 

 

b.

Included in this amount is approximately $3.15 million of transaction costs not reflected in the historical financial statements. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the transaction and factually supportable but nonrecurring are reflected in the pro forma balance sheet as pro forma adjustments to retained earnings.

 

 

c.

Represents acquisition accounting adjustment for the preliminary estimated fair value of acquired intangible assets. The fair value is a preliminary estimate and may be adjusted within one year of the proposed transaction in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The fair value of the intangible assets is determined primarily using the “income approach” which requires management forecasts of all of the expected future cash flow. The Company acquired two in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) intangible assets relating to two primary clinical stage drug candidates. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of CVie’s identifiable intangible assets (dollars in thousands):

 

   

Estimated Fair

Value

 
         

In process research and development:

       

Istaroxime ("Ista") - drug candidate

  $ 19,910  

Rostafuroxin ("Rosta") - drug candidate

    50,380  

Total

  $ 70,290  

 

Under ASC 805, all intangible assets acquired in a business combination that are used in research and development activities (IPR&D assets) are capitalized as indefinite-lived intangible assets and are tested for impairment in accordance with ASC 350. The acquired assets will remain indefinite-lived assets until completion or abandonment, where the Company will perform an impairment test immediately prior to the change in classification and determine the useful life upon completion or write off the asset to expense in the period of abandonment.

 

 

d.

Represents the adjustment necessary to reflect the preliminary estimated goodwill associated with the acquisition.

 

 

e.

Represents the conversion of certain of the Company’s payables and debt into Common Stock in connection the private placement financing, as discussed in Footnote a. As of December 21, 2018, the Company converted $1.0 million of payables and $6.0 million of debt into Common Stock. As of September 30, 2018, the date that the pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet was prepared, the Company had an outstanding balance of approximately $4.3 million relating to the debt that was converted. Based on the outstanding balance as of September 30, 2018, the conversion resulted in the Company recording a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $3.9 million, based on the difference between the fair value of the Common Stock and warrants issued of approximately $9.1 million and the aggregate outstanding balance converted at approximately $5.3 million.

 

 

f.

Represents the acquisition accounting adjustment for the preliminary deferred tax liabilities associated with the transaction.

 

 

 

 

 

g.

Represents the following transactions: (i) recognition of the impact of the private placement (as discussed in Footnote a) on the Company’s equity by recording the net proceeds to common stock at par and additional paid in capital, (ii) recognition of transaction costs as an adjustment to accumulated deficit (as discussed in Footnote b), (iii) recognition of the conversion of debt (as discussed in Footnote e) by recording the fair value of the common stock and warrants issued to common stock at par and additional paid capital and the loss on extinguishment of debt to accumulated deficit, (iv) recognition of the purchase consideration to additional paid in capital, and (v) the elimination of CVie Therapeutics’s historical equity.

 

 

h.

Included in this amount is approximately $0.5 million of private placement fees, paid in the form of Windtree Common Stock.

 

 

i.

Represents the elimination of transactions costs that are included in the historical financial results of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 that would have been incurred in the year ended December 31, 2016 assuming a January 1, 2017 acquisition date.

 

 

j.

Represents the elimination of interest expense related to Lee’s debt and the Battelle Payables that were paid by the Company as part of the private placement, assuming the debt and accrued interest were paid on January 1, 2017.

 

 

k.

Represents the pro forma earnings per share, calculated to include the impact of the issuance of 16.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock as acquisition consideration and the issuance of 11.8 million shares of the Company’s common stock as part of the private placement. The weighted average shares used to compute basic earnings per share assumes that the acquisition and private placement took place on January 1, 2017.
