Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Condensed Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.              Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Business

Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company” or “Madrigal”) was incorporated on August 19, 2011 and commenced operations in September 2011.  On September 14, 2011, the Company entered into an Assignment and Issuance Agreement pursuant to which the Company was assigned the rights, title and interest in and to the tangible and intangible assets owned by Bay City Capital Fund IV, L.P. (“Lender A”) and Bay City Capital Fund IV Co-Investment Fund, L.P (“Lender B” and together with Lender A, “BCC”), in exchange for the assumption of outstanding convertible promissory notes, including accrued interest, in the amount of approximately $23,400,000 (see Note 4).  Assets contributed to the Company were primarily intangible assets related to several drug development programs of VIA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“VIA”), which was an investee company of BCC.

The underlying assets of VIA transferred to BCC and subsequently contributed to the Company were notionally valued at $3 million.  BCC credit bid $3 million for the VIA assets as part of an assignment for the benefit of creditors process.  Due to the common control nature of the transaction and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the assigned assets and liabilities were recorded by the Company at their respective carryover basis which was zero for the tangible and intangible assets and $23.4 million for the assumed debt.  In 2012, Madrigal entered into a transaction with Tallikut Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Tallikut”) whereby Madrigal sold certain assets to Tallikut in exchange for the assumption of $2 million of convertible promissory notes.  On July 22, 2016 the Company merged into Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. (the “Merger”) (see Note 9).  These financial statements do not give any effect to the merger.

The Company is developing novel, high-quality small-molecule drugs addressing major unmet needs in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.  The lead compound MGL-3196 is Phase II ready and is being advanced for indications in dyslipidemia, particularly LDL-cholesterol lowering, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, a liver disease that commonly affects people with metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes.

Basis of Presentation

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted.  Accordingly, the unaudited condensed financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements.  However, we believe that the disclosures included in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such interim results.  The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that we will have for the full year ended December 31, 2016 or any subsequent period.  These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

2.              Liquidity and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to development stage companies in the Bio-Pharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, uncertainty of product development and commercialization, dependence on key personnel, uncertainty of market acceptance of products and product reimbursement, product liability, uncertain protection of proprietary technology, potential inability to raise additional financing necessary for development and commercialization, and compliance with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other government regulations.

The Company has incurred losses since inception, including approximately $4,590,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, resulting in an accumulated deficit of approximately $53,509,000 as of June 30, 2016.  Management expects to incur losses for the foreseeable future and has a working capital deficit of approximately $42,279,000 at June 30, 2016.  To date, the Company has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of convertible debt with a maturity date of December 31, 2016.

On April 13, 2016, the Company amended and restated the terms of its March 1, 2016 Note Purchase Agreement to increase the principal amount of the notes available thereunder to $9,000,000 (see Note 4) in order to provide funding for working capital and general corporate purposes through the date of the anticipated merger, as described below.  In addition, all of the Note Purchase Agreements were amended in April 2016 to (1) add mandatory conversion features whereby the principal will automatically convert into shares of common stock of the Company immediately prior to the consummation of the merger) (2) waive all accrued interest thereunder through April 13, 2016 and (3) make such notes non-interest bearing from April 13, 2016 through the consummation or termination of the anticipated merger.

On April 13, 2016, the Company also entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (“the Merger Agreement”) with Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. (“Synta”)  which was consummated and approved by the stockholders of Synta and completed in the third quarter of 2016 (see Note 9).  The working capital obtained through the merger together with the proceeds from the issuance of the March 1, 2016 Note Purchase Agreement, as well as the permanent waiver of accrued interest and the conversion of all outstanding convertible notes is anticipated to fund the Company’s operations for at least the next twelve months from the balance sheet date.  Total post combination cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand at August 31, 2016 was $41.4 million.

3.              Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of six months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.  The Company maintains its cash in a bank account, which at times, exceeds Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Research and development costs are comprised of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including internal costs, costs for consultants, associated with the Company’s preclinical and clinical programs.  In particular, Madrigal has conducted safety studies in animals, optimized and implemented the API manufacturing, and conducted Phase I clinical trials, all of which are considered research and development expenditures.

Patents

Costs to secure and defend patents are expensed as incurred and are classified as general and administrative expense in the Company’s statements of operations.  Patent expenses were approximately $28,000 and $95,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively and $39,000 and $141,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the Company’s financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The Company currently maintains a 100% valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

Convertible Promissory Notes-Related Parties

On July 15, 2016, the Company issued a total of $1,625,000 of convertible notes to Lenders A, B, C and D in the amounts of $353,470, $7,605, $902,850 and $361,075, respectively, under the March 1, 2016 Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement.  These notes were converted to the Company’s common stock prior to the Merger.

Immediately prior to the consummation of the merger, the September 14, 2011, September 16, 2011 and March 1, 2016 (amended and restated April 13, 2016) convertible note issuances outstanding totaling $45.1 million on July 22 were converted into 44.5 million shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to their respective amended and restated terms. 

Merger

On July 22, 2016, prior to the closing of the merger, Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. (“Synta”) completed a one-for-35 reverse stock split.

On July 22, 2016, the Company, Synta, and Saffron Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Synta (“Merger Sub”) completed their merger transaction pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into the Company with the Company becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Synta and the surviving corporation of the merger.  Each outstanding share of Madrigal common stock was converted into 1.593 shares of common stock of the post-merger combined company.  As a result, Synta issued 7.3 million shares of common stock to the stockholders of the Company in exchange for common shares of Madrigal. For accounting purposes, the Company is considered to be acquiring Synta in the merger. The Company was determined to be the accounting acquirer based upon the terms of the Merger Agreement and other factors including: (i) Madrigal security holders own approximately 64% of the voting interests of the combined company immediately following the closing of the merger; (ii) directors appointed by Madrigal hold a majority of board seats in the combined company; and (iii) Madrigal management hold a majority of the key positions in the management of the combined company. As the accounting acquirer, the Company’s assets and liabilities will be recorded at their pre combination carrying amounts and the historical operations that will be reflected in the financial statements will be those of the Company.

Following the reverse stock split and the merger, the post-merger combined company had approximately 11.3 million shares outstanding and the former stockholders of the Company owned approximately 64% of the outstanding capital stock of the post-merger combined company.

Upon the closing of the merger transaction on July 22, 2016, the Company incurred an expense for a success fee of $750,000 in cash plus $500,000 settled in shares of the post-merger combined company’s common stock with a third party financial advisor (see Note 8).

Bonus Plan Awards
