PAXVAX GLOBAL, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

PaxVax Global, L.P. and its subsidiaries (PaxVax Global, L.P., PaxVax, or the Company) primarily focus on the development and commercialization of specialty vaccines for the overlooked traveler segment. The Company is headquartered in Redwood City, California, USA, and maintains research and development and Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) facilities in San Diego, California, USA, and in Thörishaus, Switzerland. The Company sells and distributes vaccines in the United States, United Kingdom, Italy, Spain and Switzerland.  The Company is also in the business of marketing and selling priority review vouchers (PRV) we may obtain by developing new drug and biological products for the prevention and treatment of certain tropical diseases which qualify for U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) PRV status. In 2016, the Company obtained its first priority review voucher from the U.S. FDA upon approval of its application for a biological license for Vaxchora, a Cholera vaccine.  The voucher was sold during 2016 for $290.0 million to a third party.   The Company uses the list of U.S. FDA qualified PRV eligible tropical diseases as a basis for defining its portfolio of research and development projects.

 

The Company’s commercial portfolio includes Vivotif, a Typhoid vaccine, and Vaxchora, a vaccine for Cholera.  The Company began recognizing net product revenues from sales of Vaxchora and related cost of sales in 2016.  The Company also distributes Dukoral and Ixiaro for Valneva Austria GMBH in Italy, Spain, and Portugal as well as Measles and Diptheria for Sanofi in Switzerland.  The clinical-stage product portfolio includes a licensed vaccine for chikungunya that is currently in phase 2 trials, adenovirus strains 4 and 7, and adenovirus-based vaccines for pandemic H5N1 influenza, and HIV all of which have included phase 1 clinical trials.  The Company’s proprietary adenoviral-based technology platform is intended to provide a platform technology for the rapid development of oral vaccines that can target both viral and bacterial antigens, and to be suitable for use in both developed and developing countries. In addition, the Company has preclinical vaccine candidates for the mosquito-borne Zika virus.

 

PaxVax, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in 2006 and commenced operations in 2007. On December 3, 2015, PaxVax, Inc. effected a recapitalization in which a newly formed company, PaxVax Global, L.P., became its parent holding company of the worldwide consolidated subsidiaries.  Simultaneous with this transaction, existing investors of PaxVax, Inc. became the sole owners of PaxVax Global, L.P. through a newly formed company, 2015 Shareholder Holding Company Limited (Holding Company).  Holding Company and PaxVax Global G.P. (the general partner of PaxVax Global, L.P. and controlled by Holding Company) were the original sole owners of PaxVax Global, L.P.  On December 4, 2015, Cerberus PaxVax, L.P. (Cerberus PaxVax), an affiliate of Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. (Cerberus) acquired a 70% interest in PaxVax Global, L.P. for a net cash amount of $102.0 million (the Cerberus Transaction).  Concurrent with the acquisition, Holding Company also transferred its interests in and control of PaxVax Global G.P. to Cerberus PaxVax Global GP Holdings, Ltd., an affiliate of Cerberus. The Holding Company holds the remaining 30% interest in the Company, (together referred to as the Partnership).

 

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and include the accounts of PaxVax Global, L.P. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that these condensed consolidated financial statements include all necessary and recurring adjustments for the fair presentation of the interim period results. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts - As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, trade receivables from product sales was $7.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively.  Research contracts receivables were $1.1 million as of June 30, 2018 of which $0.5 million was recorded as accounts receivable and $0.6 million as earned but unbilled revenue included in prepaid expenses and current other assets.  Research contracts receivables were $1.2 million as of December 31, 2017 of which $0.7 million was recorded as accounts receivable and $0.5 million as earned but unbilled revenue included in prepaid expenses and current other assets.  As

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In July 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-11, Leases. Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”). In issuing ASU 2018-11, the FASB decided to provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-11 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income. Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, that gives entities the option to reclassify to retained earnings tax effects related to items that have been stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Act). An entity that elects to reclassify these amounts must reclassify stranded tax effects related to the Act’s change in U.S. federal tax rate for all items accounted for in other comprehensive income. These entities can also elect to reclassify other stranded effects that relate to the Act but do not directly relate to the change in the federal rate. Entities can choose whether to apply the amendments retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the Act is recognized or to apply the amendments in the period of adoption. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU No. 2016-15 eliminates the diversity in practice related to the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows by adding or clarifying guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. ASU No. 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within that fiscal year.  The new accounting pronouncement is not expected to have a significant impact on the its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and additional ASUs subsequently during 2018, which requires lessees to recognize a liability associated with obligations to make payments under the terms of the arrangement in addition to a right-of-use asset representing the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of the given asset assumed under the lease. The standard will be effective for the Company in 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this new standard and the impact it will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Since May 2014, additional ASUs have been issued that addresses certain implementation issues that have surfaced since the issuance of ASU No. 2014-09. This guidance applies to any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including most industry-specific guidance, as well as certain related guidance on accounting for contract costs. In July 2015, FASB deferred the adoption dates of this standard whereby the standard becomes effective for the Company in 2019. Early adoption is permitted for nonpublic entities. An entity should apply the guidance using one of two methods: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with practical expedients or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initial adoption of the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

There are no other recently issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The accounting guidance for fair value states that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value, as follows:

 

Level 1— Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 — Directly or indirectly observable inputs other than in Level 1 that include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 

The Company estimate the fair values of its corporate debt securities by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income- and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trades of and broker or dealer quotes on the same or similar securities; issuer credit spreads; benchmark securities; prepayment or default projections based on historical data; and other observable inputs.

Based on the Company’s review of its available-for-sale securities, the Company believes there were no other-than-temporary impairments on these securities as of December 31, 2017.  The Company does not intend to sell these securities nor believes that it will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost. Gross realized gains and gross realized losses were immaterial for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, financial instruments measured using Level 3 inputs on a recurring basis consisted of convertible unsecured loans where the Company has elected the fair value option to account for these financial instruments.

 

The Company estimates the fair value of the convertible unsecured loans using a discounted cash flow model based on the probability of a Winding-Up Event, as defined, amount and timing of expected payouts and an assumed discount rate.  The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the repayment of the principal and interest of the loans, or a Winding-Up Event occurs.  On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Emergent BioSolutions Inc.  As a result of this Winding-Up Event, the Company recognized a the fair value adjustment for the six months ending June 30, 2018 to approximate the Company’s assessment of the present-value of estimated future repayment amount.  See also Convertible Unsecured Loans at Note 6, Debt Financing, and Note 11, Subsequent Events.

NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Operating Leases — The Company’s office and manufacturing facilities located in San Diego and Redwood City, California, are subject to noncancelable operating lease agreements.  The Company provided aggregate cash deposits of $0.2 million as security for the operating leases, as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.  The cash deposits related to property leases were recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other long-term assets within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

 

Included within the lease agreements are tenant improvement allowances totaling approximately $0.4 million. The Company is amortizing the portion of the deferred rent liability related to the tenant improvement allowances as a reduction to rent expense over the remaining term of the lease.

 

The Company’s leases contain rent escalation clauses. Rent expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. The difference between the base rent payment and the straight-line rent amount is recorded as a deferred rent liability.  As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has deferred rent liabilities of approximately $0.1 million included in other current liabilities and $0.1 million included in other long term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Rent expense, including common area charges, was $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the six months ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Licensing Agreements - The Company has entered into licensing agreements with certain parties, whereby the Company has been granted exclusive and nonexclusive licenses to certain patented technology and know-how of certain additional proprietary technology. In addition to licensing fees, the agreements obligate the Company to pay royalties to the Licensors on certain milestones and revenue generated from the Company’s use of the licensed patents and technology, including product sales revenue and proceeds from sublicensing agreements.

 

The agreements typically terminate on the last to expire patent right associated with the related agreement. The agreements obligate the Company to make annual licensing payments until expiration. For the six months ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, amounts due and recognized for licensing, royalty, and patent reimbursement fees were insignificant.

Related Party Convertible Notes Payable

 

In September 2015, the Company executed convertible promissory notes and received $7.0 million in net cash proceeds from an investment fund that held two of five of the Company’s Board of Director seats and a controlling voting interest in the Company at that time. The terms of the notes bear interest at 0.56% per annum.

 

In December 2015, the terms of the $7.0 million convertible promissory note were amended.  All outstanding principal and all accrued but unpaid interest under the note is due and payable upon demand at any time on or after the occurrence of: a winding up and/or dissolution of the partnership; a sale or exclusive license of all or substantially all  of the assets of the partnership or its subsidiaries to an unrelated third party; a merger, acquisition, or sale of partnership interests; in which the partners immediately prior to such event have received consideration for no less than half of the value of their partnership interests, or upon default.  In the event Cerberus or its affiliate proposes to make an additional investment into the partnership, the note may also be converted into common limited partnership interests of PaxVax Global, L.P., in accordance with, and subject to, certain terms and provisions. The amendment to the convertible promissory notes was considered to be a modification and accounted for prospectively as it did not result in a significant change in their fair value.

Convertible Unsecured Loans

 

In June 2008, the Company received strategic award funding in the amount of $12.8 million (First Award). In June 2010, the Company received a second strategic award funding in the amount of $3.0 million (Second Award). These awards are from a charitable foundation trust, The Wellcome Trust Limited (Wellcome Trust), in the form of convertible unsecured loans (Loans) related to certain research and development programs.  As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $15.8 million in total from both awards.

 

The Loans initially accrued interest at 2.00% above the NatWest Bank plc base rate. At Wellcome Trust’s discretion, it could require the Company to convert some or all of the respective Loans into the next round of financing offered by the Company at the earlier of certain events or upon an event of default. The strategic award with Wellcome Trust also did not allow them to require the Company to repay the award if such repayment would have caused doubts as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

On December 4, 2015, the Master Amendment Deed (the Deed) was signed by and among PaxVax Inc., The Wellcome Trust Limited, and PaxVax Global, L.P., which amended the original agreement and stated that, effective upon the Deed, Wellcome Trust shall not demand conversion of each Loan and demand repayment of any Loan (or part thereof) or accrued interest.  The only automatic conversion will occur upon a Winding-Up Event, as defined in the deed, such as a dissolution, sale, merger, acquisition, recapitalization or reorganization of the partnership or a material breach of the Company’s obligations under the Funding Agreement.  In the Deed, all parties agreed that, upon the occurrence of a Winding-Up Event after the effective date of the Deed, only the principal amounts of both First and Second Awards will be converted to common limited partnership interests of PaxVax Global, L.P., and all accrued interest under each award shall be extinguished.  As of December 4, 2015, the date of the Deed, the accrued interest that has not been recorded was $2.9 million. Thus the Deed released the Company’s liability to any accrued interest.

 

The Company elected to apply the fair value option to account for the Loans. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company is in compliance with its covenant obligations under the Funding Agreement.

 

As the Company has elected the fair value option to account for the Loans, the change in fair value was recorded as part of the fair value adjustment in the consolidated statements of operations for the six years months ended June 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017.

Royalty Obligation Payable

 

In July 2014, the Company executed a secured loan and security agreement with a previous third-party lender for an available loan amount of up to $50.0 million in three tranches subject to certain requirements at the date of funding. In December 2015, the Company terminated all commitments under the loan agreement, except for payment of future royalties (royalty obligation payable), by repaying the obligations and liabilities under the agreement which comprised full repayment of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the then-outstanding debt and certain prepayment penalties and fees.

 

The Royalty Obligation Payable contains repayment terms of future royalties estimated by the Company at $2.9 million as of December 31, 2015.  These future royalties are computed at 3% of the Company’s revenues earned and payable to the lender in three yearly payments beginning on September 15, 2017.  The Company records the net present value of the estimated expected future royalty payments as a liability, and accretes interest expense based on the future payment dates.  A new effective interest rate is computed when the estimated future payments change, and the carrying amount of the royalty obligation payable liability is adjusted as if the new effective interest rate had been used since inception.  Interest expense is recognized at the new effective rate beginning in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

 

As of December 31, 2016, the royalty repayment amount of $4.1 million represents the estimated fair value of future royalties, and is presented as current and noncurrent royalty obligation payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In June 2017, the royalty obligation payable was settled for $3.5 million.   The extinguishment of royalty obligation resulted in a gain of $0.6 million, which the Company recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

NOTE 7 - FOUNDERS’ UNITS

 

PaxVax Founders’ Incentive Unit Plan

 

On December 4, 2015, Holding Company established the PaxVax Founders’ Incentive Unit Plan (PFIUP). Under the PFIUP, 50,000,000 units were reserved for grant of which 30,180,412 units were subsequently awarded to certain holders of outstanding awards in the PaxVax, Inc.’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the Plan) which was terminated in 2015.  These shares are known as modification units because they qualify for modification treatment of share based payments under US GAAP.

 

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 48,610,107 and 48,352,549 units had been awarded, respectively.  As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 40,223,194 and 36,663,495 PFIUP units were fully vested, respectively.  As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 8,386,914 and 11,689,054 PFIUP unvested units outstanding, respectively. The remaining units vest over various terms up to 48 months and are divided between shares subject to modification accounting treatment and Top-Up (issued) units not subject to modification treatment. All PFIUP units automatically vest upon a Liquidity Event which is defined as a winding up, dissolution, sale of all assets, merger or similar corporate event of PaxVax Global, L.P. or IPO of PaxVax Global, L.P. or PaxVax, Inc. Participants who hold vested Incentive Units at the time of any other dividend or distribution to holders of common stock of Holding Company or at the time of a Liquidity Event will be entitled to a cash payment.  The Company recognizes compensation expense for the original grant date fair value of the modified shares over the remaining vesting period. The Company did not recognize any compensation expense related to the PFIUP Top-Up (issued) units for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 because the occurrence of the performance condition required for payment associated with these awards did not occur and therefore there is no fair value associated with these units.

On January 24, 2017, the Partnership Agreement was amended primarily to revise clauses relating to the distribution of proceeds from the sale of PaxVax Bermuda’s priority review voucher (PRV) issued in connection with the approval of Vaxchora.  PaxVax Bermuda distributed to the Company $122.2 million relating to PRV proceeds.  In turn, the Company made distributions to its partners as follows: $121.3 million was distributed to Cerberus PaxVax and $0.9 million was distributed to Series A Profits Interests holders.  Further distributions to the Company by PaxVax Bermuda, and in turn, by the Company to the Limited Partners holding Series A Profits Interests, of up to $2.9 million were made and will be made in a series of quarterly installments from March 31, 2017 to December 31, 2019, as the Series A Profits Interests vest.  For each of the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $0.5 million had been reflected as bonus or board member fees and included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.   PaxVax Bermuda retained $82.6 million from PRV proceeds in lieu of distributing such amount to the Company for distribution to the Holding Company.  These funds will be used by the Holding Company to purchase additional equity in the Company if there is a future investment opportunity in the Company.  If there is no new investment opportunity, the Holding Company will receive a distribution equal to this amount in preference to any distribution to Cerberus PaxVax or holders of Profits Interests. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, restricted cash of $10.7 million was released from the Holding Company to the Company for use in operations.

 

PaxVax Profits Interests Plan

 

On December 4, 2015, the Company established the PaxVax Global, L.P. Profits Interests Plan (PPIP). Under the PPIP, each participant is granted the number of profits interests set forth in the award agreement. Profits interests are subject to vesting; for which 6.25% shall vest upon each calendar quarter end date after grant date. Participants in the PPIP have the right to share in distributions of the Company as set forth in the PPIP and the Company’s Partnership Agreement. Upon termination of employment of the participant with the Company or its affiliate, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the vested portion of the participant’s profits interests.   The number of profit interests that are reserved for issuance under the PPIP represent 15% of the outstanding equity of PaxVax Global, L.P. of which and 13% is reserved for issuance to PaxVax management and Board of Directors as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Awards of profits interest are not considered to be a substantive class of partnership ownership and are therefore accounted for as a profit sharing arrangement.  There were no liabilities outstanding relating to this plan as of each balance sheet dates. Bonus expense recognized under this plan was $0.4 million for each of the six-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

 

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the provision for income taxes reflected on the condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect an effective rate of negative 1.18% and a negative 0.82%, respectively.  During the six months ended June 30, 2018, because of the United States and Switzerland losses that are subject to full valuation allowance, those jurisdictions are not able to realize the income tax benefit of those losses.  The Company also has activity in foreign jurisdictions which is subject to a lower tax rate than the United States Federal statutory tax rate.  Finally, the Company has losses in pass-through entities that are not subject to income tax.  As a result, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s effective tax rate is less than the United States Federal statutory tax rate, or 34% and 21%, respectively.

 

In December of 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued State Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”), which allows the Company to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year from the enactment date.  Because the Tax Act was enacted in the December 2017 and ongoing guidance and accounting interpretations are expected over the next 12 months, the analysis required to record the provisional amounts for the accounting of deferred tax re-measurements and other items, such as cost recovery and state tax considerations, may be revised causing adjustments to these provisions.  The Company expects to complete the analysis and update the provisional amounts within the measurement period in accordance with SAB 118.
