CYTOGEN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. THE COMPANY
BACKGROUND
Founded in 1980, Cytogen Corporation (the "Company" or "Cytogen") of
Princeton, NJ is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of
patients with cancer by acquiring, developing and commercializing innovative
molecules targeting the sites and stages of cancer progression. The Company's
marketed products include QUADRAMET (samarium Sm-153 lexidronam injection) and
PROSTASCINT (capromab pendetide) kit for the preparation of Indium In-111
capromab pendetide in the United States. The Company has exclusive United States
marketing rights to COMBIDEX (ferumoxtran-10) for all applications, and the
exclusive right to market and sell ferumoxytol (formerly Code 7228) for oncology
applications in the United States. On March 3, 2005, the FDA's Oncologic Drugs
Advisory Committee (ODAC) voted to not recommend approval of the proposed broad
indication for COMBIDEX being sought by Advanced Magnetics. On March 24, 2005,
Advanced Magnetics, Inc. informed Cytogen that Advanced Magnetics received an
approvable letter from the FDA for COMBIDEX, subject to certain conditions. The
Company is also developing therapeutics targeting prostate-specific membrane
antigen ("PSMA"), a protein highly expressed on the surface of prostate cancer
cells and the neovasculature of solid tumors.
On April 21, 2006, the Company and Savient Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
("Savient") entered into a distribution agreement granting the Company exclusive
marketing rights for SOLTAMOX(TM) (tamoxifen citrate) in the United States.
SOLTAMOX, a cytostatic estrogen receptor antagonist, is the first oral liquid
hormonal therapy approved in the U.S. It is indicated for the treatment of
breast cancer in adjuvant and metastatic settings and to reduce the risk of
breast cancer in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or with high risk of
breast cancer. In addition, the Company entered into a supply agreement with
Rosemont Pharmaceuticals Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Savient
("Rosemont"), for the manufacture and supply of SOLTAMOX. The Company expects to
launch SOLTAMOX during the third quarter of 2006.
Cytogen has a history of operating losses since its inception. The Company
currently relies on two products, PROSTASCINT and QUADRAMET, for substantially
all of its revenues. In addition, the Company has, from time to time, stopped
selling certain products, such as NMP22 BLADDERCHEK, BRACHYSEED and ONCOSCINT,
that the Company previously believed would generate significant revenues. The
Company's products are subject to significant regulatory review by the FDA and
other federal and state agencies, which requires significant time and
expenditures in seeking, maintaining and expanding product approvals. In
addition, the Company relies on collaborative partners to a significant degree,
among other things, to manufacture its products, to secure raw materials, and to
provide licensing rights to their proprietary technologies for the Company to
sell and market to others. The Company is also subject to revenue and credit
concentration risks as a small number of its customers account for a high
percentage of total revenues and corresponding receivables. The loss of one of
these customers or changes in their buying patterns could result in reduced
sales, thereby adversely affecting the Company's operating results.
-5-
The Company has incurred negative cash flows from operations since its
inception, and has expended, and expects to continue to expend substantial funds
to implement its planned product development efforts, including acquisition of
products and complementary technologies, research and development, clinical
studies and regulatory activities, and to further the Company's marketing and
sales programs. The Company expects its existing capital resources should be
adequate to fund operations and commitments at least into 2007. The Company
cannot assure you that its business or operations will not change in a manner
that would consume available resources more rapidly than anticipated. The
Company expects that it will have additional requirements for debt or equity
capital, irrespectively of whether and when profitability is reached, for
further product development, product and technology acquisition costs, and
working capital.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of
Cytogen and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Cytogen are
unaudited and include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary to present fairly the financial condition and results of operations as
of and for the periods set forth in the Consolidated Balance Sheets,
Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
All such accounting adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The
consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, which includes financial statements as of and for the
year ended December 31, 2005. The results of the Company's operations for any
interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company's
operations for any other interim period or for a full year.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash in banks and all
highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of
purchase.
-6-
Inventories
The Company's inventories are primarily related to PROSTASCINT. Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method
and consisted of the following (all amounts in thousands):
MARCH 31, 2006 DECEMBER 31, 2005
------------------ ---------------------
Raw materials..................... $ 291 $ 291
Work-in-process................... 1,459 2,625
Finished goods.................... 339 666
--------- ----------
$ 2,089 $ 3,582
========= ==========
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company's net
loss by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during each period.
Diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss per share for
each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 because the
inclusion of common stock equivalents, which consist of nonvested shares,
warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, would be
antidilutive due to the Company's losses.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company follows the revised Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46R"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities", which addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether it
has a controlling financial interest in an entity through means other than
voting rights and accordingly should consolidate the entity.
In June 1999, Cytogen entered into a joint venture with Progenics
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Progenics," and collectively with Cytogen, the
"Members") to form the PSMA Development Company LLC (the "Joint Venture"). The
Joint Venture is developing antibody-based and vaccine immunotherapeutic
products utilizing Cytogen's exclusively licensed prostate-specific membrane
antigen ("PSMA") technology. The Joint Venture was owned equally by the Members
until April 20, 2006, when the Company sold its 50% interest in the Joint
Venture to Progenics (see Note 3). Cytogen accounted for the Joint Venture using
the equity method of accounting. The Company was not required to consolidate the
Joint Venture under the requirements of FIN 46R.
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME OR LOSS
Other comprehensive income consisted of unrealized holding gains on
marketable securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the unrealized
holding gain for these securities was $96,000 and, as a result, the
comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $7,570,000. For
the three months ended March 31, 2005, the unrealized holding gain on these
securities was $69,000 and, as a result, the comprehensive loss for the three
months ended March 31, 2005 was $6,524,000.
-7-
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Share-Based Payment
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment,"
which revised SFAS No. 123 ("SFAS 123") and superseded Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, " Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25").
SFAS 123(R) requires that companies recognize compensation expense associated
with share-based compensation arrangements, including employee stock options, in
the financial statements effective as of the first interim or annual reporting
period that begins after June 15, 2005. SFAS 123(R) eliminates the Company's
ability to account for such transactions using the intrinsic method of
accounting under APB 25. SFAS 123(R) also requires that companies recognize
compensation expense associated with purchases of shares of common stock by
employees at a discount to market value under employee stock purchase plans that
do not meet certain criteria.
In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced the
adoption of a new rule allowing companies to implement SFAS 123(R) at the
beginning of their next fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005.
Accordingly, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) in its fiscal year beginning
January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. Under this
method, compensation expense is reflected in the financial statements beginning
January 1, 2006 with no restatement to the prior periods. As such, compensation
expense, which is measured based on the fair value of the instrument on the
grant date, is recognized for awards that are granted, modified, repurchased or
cancelled on or after January 1, 2006 as well as for the portion of awards
previously granted that have not vested as of January 1, 2006. The Company has
implemented the straight-line expense attribution method for all options granted
after January 1, 2006. Prior to adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company used the
accelerated attribution method in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 28,
"Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or
Award Plans" ("FIN 28"). The adoption of SFAS 123(R) has a material impact on
the Company's results of operations (see Note 2).
Abnormal Inventory Costs
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, "Inventory Costs, an
amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4" ("SFAS No. 151"), to clarify that abnormal
amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material
(spoilage) should be recognized as current period charges, and that fixed
production overheads should be allocated to inventory based on the normal
capacity of production facilities. This statement is effective for inventory
costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Accordingly,
the Company adopted SFAS No. 151 in its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006.
The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the Company in the
first quarter of 2006.
2. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has various share-based compensation plans that provide for the
issuance of common stock and incentive and non-qualified stock options to
purchase the Company's common stock to employees, non-employee directors and
outside consultants. These plans are administered by the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee"). The Company will
generally issue new common shares to satisfy option exercises or upon
satisfaction of service requirement for nonvested shares.
-8-
Cytogen Stock Options
Currently, the Company has two plans which allow for the issuance of stock
options and other awards: the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2004 Plan") and
the 2004 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan (the "2004 Director Plan").
An aggregate of 1,200,000 and 375,000 shares of Cytogen common stock have been
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options or stock awards (as
applicable) under the 2004 Plan and 2004 Director Plan, respectively. The
Company also has certain other option plans, for which there are options
outstanding but no new options can be granted under those plans.
The 2004 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options,
non-qualified stock options or nonvested shares (see below) to the Company's
employees, officers, consultants and advisors. Generally, options granted to
employees will vest 40%, 30% and 30% one year, two years and three years after
the date of grant, respectively. Options granted to officers will generally vest
annually one third each year over a three-year period from the date of grant.
Performance options, which will vest upon the achievement of certain milestones,
may also be granted under the 2004 Plan. The exercise price of Cytogen stock
options is equal to the average of high and low trading prices for Cytogen
common stock on the date of grant, unless a higher exercise price is specified
by the Compensation Committee. Except for certain circumstances, the options
will generally expire upon the earlier of ten years after the date of grant or
90 days after termination of employment.
The 2004 Director Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified stock
options and shares of Cytogen common stock, in certain circumstances, to members
of the Company's Board of Directors who are not employees of the Company.
According to the 2004 Director Plan, each re-elected Director shall
automatically receive options to purchase shares of Cytogen common stock on the
day following each Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Each new Director who is
appointed after the date of the most recent Annual Meeting of Stockholders will
receive a certain number of options, pro-rated for the number of months
remaining until the next Annual Meeting. All options will become excisable on
the first anniversary of the date of grant, unless options are granted to a
Director who has served on the Company's Board of Directors for at least three
years and retires or resigns after reaching 55 years of age. In such case, the
options may be exercised in full regardless of the time lapse since the date of
grant. The exercise price of Cytogen stock options is equal to the average of
high and low trading prices for Cytogen common stock on the date of grant.
Except for certain circumstances, the options will generally expire upon the
earlier of ten years after the date of grant or 90 days after termination date.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In September 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the 2005
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "2005 ESPP"). The 2005 ESPP, which is subject
to stockholder approval, will be effective October 1, 2005, and will replace the
Company's existing employee stock purchase plan which had no remaining shares
available for future issuance. Under the 2005 ESPP, eligible employees may elect
to purchase shares of Cytogen common stock at 85% of the lower of fair market
value as of the first or last trading day of each participation period. Under
the 2005 ESPP, officers of the Company who purchase shares may not transfer such
shares for a period of 12 months after the purchase date. The initial offering
period will be a nine-month period beginning on October 1, 2005 and ending on
June 30, 2006. Subsequent purchase periods will be three-month periods beginning
on the first day in July, October, January and April. The Company has reserved

The Company will not sell any shares of common stock pursuant to the 2005 ESPP
unless such plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company. The 2005 ESPP
plan will be compensatory under SFAS 123(R).

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) which
requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all
share-based payments at fair value. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the
Company accounted for its stock-based employee compensation expense under the
recognition and measurement principles of APB 25, and related interpretations.
Under APB 25, compensation costs related to stock options granted with exercise
prices equal to or greater than the fair value of the underlying shares at the
date of grant under those plans were not recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations. Compensation costs related to nonvested shares and
stock options granted with exercise prices below fair value of the underlying
shares at the date of grant were recognized in the consolidated statements of
operations over the requisite service period, generally the vesting periods of
the awards. Compensation costs associated with those awards granted prior to the
adoption of SFAS 123(R) were recognized using the accelerated attribution method
in accordance with FIN 28 and forfeitures recorded as incurred. The following
table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share as if the fair
value method of SFAS 123 had been applied for the three months ended March 31,
2005 (all amounts in thousands, except per share data):
Net loss, as reported........................................... $ (6,593)
Add: Share-based employee compensation expense as
reported in net loss.......................................... --
Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense
determined under fair-value-based method for all awards....... (563)
------------
Pro forma net loss.............................................. $ (7,156)
============
Basic and diluted net loss per share, as reported............... $ (0.43)
============
Pro forma basic and diluted net loss per share.................. $ (0.46)
============
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective
transition method, which requires that share-based compensation cost be based on
the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
123(R) and is recognized for all awards granted, modified or settled after the
effective date as well as awards granted to employees prior to the effective
date that remain unvested as of the effective date. For the three months ended
March 31, 2006, the Company recorded $462,000 of stock-based compensation
expense, of which $403,000 was included in selling, general and administrative
expenses and $59,000 in research and development expenses. No stock-based
compensation cost was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2005. During
the three months ended March 31, 2006, there was no modification to the
share-based awards. No compensation cost was capitalized into assets as of March
31, 2006.
The adoption of SFAS 123(R) resulted in a higher loss of $429,000 or $0.02
per share to the Company's net loss and net loss per basic and diluted share,
respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2006, than if the Company had
continued to account for the share-based compensation under APB 25. At March 31,
2006, unrecognized compensation expense, which includes the impact of estimated
forfeitures, related to unvested awards granted under the Company's share-based
compensation plans is approximately $1.6 million and remains to be recognized
over a weighted average period of 1.2 years. The Company recognizes share-based
compensation on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for
grants on or after January 1, 2006. Unrecognized compensation expense related to
grants made prior to adoption
-13-
of SFAS 123(R) are recognized using the accelerated amortization method. Prior
periods were not restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard. No
cumulative effect adjustment was recorded for the accounting change related to
recording actual forfeitures as incurred under APB 25 to estimating forfeitures
in accordance with SFAS 123(R) as the amount was de minimus.
The Company's share-based compensation costs are generally based on the
fair value of the option awards calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing
model on the date of grant. The compensation costs for nonvested share awards
are based on the fair value of Cytogen common stock on the date of grant. The
weighted-average grant date fair value per share of the options granted under
the Cytogen stock option plans during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and
2005 is estimated at $2.40 and $7.25 per share, respectively using the Black-
Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for
the three months ended:
MARCH MARCH
31, 2006 31, 2005
-------- --------
Expected life (years)......................... 5.95 4.10
Expected volatility........................... 99% 91%
Dividend yield................................ 0% 0%
Risk-free interest rate....................... 4.63% 3.60%
The Company calculates the expected life using the simplified method as
described in the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) for "plain
vanilla" options meeting certain criteria. The simplified method is based on the
vesting period and the contractual term for each grant or each vesting-tranche
of awards with graded vesting. The mid-point between the vesting date and the
expiration date is used as the expected term under this method. The Company
calculates expected volatility for stock-based awards using historical
volatility, measured over a period equal to the expected term of the award which
it believes is a reasonable estimate of future volatility.
In addition, under SFAS 123(R), the Company is required to estimate
expected forfeitures of options and stock grants over the requisite service
period and adjust shared-based compensation accordingly. The estimate of
forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period to the extent
that actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates.
Changes in estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative
catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will also impact the amount of
stock compensation expense to be recognized in future periods. Under the
provisions of SFAS 123(R), the Company will record additional expense if the
actual forfeiture rate is lower than what had been estimated and the Company
will record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture rate is higher
than what had been estimated.
During the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, total fair value on
date of vesting of stock options that became vested was $41,000 and $16,000,
respectively. There was no vesting of nonvested shares during the three months
ended March 31, 2006. There were no option exercises during the three months
ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.

3. JOINT VENTURE - THE PSMA DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LLC
In June 1999, Cytogen entered into a joint venture with Progenics to form
the PSMA Development Company LLC (the "Joint Venture"), a development stage
enterprise. The Joint Venture is developing antibody-based and vaccine
immunotherapeutic products utilizing Cytogen's proprietary PSMA technology. The
Joint Venture was owned equally by Cytogen and Progenics until April 20, 2006
(see below). Cytogen accounted for the Joint Venture using the equity method of
accounting. Cytogen had recognized 50% of the Joint Venture's operating results
in its consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March
31, 2006 and 2005.
On April 20, 2006, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement with Progenics providing for the sale to Progenics of the Company's
50% ownership interest in the Joint Venture. In addition, the Company entered
into an Amended and Restated PSMA/PSMP License Agreement with Progenics and the
Joint Venture pursuant to which the Company licensed the Joint Venture certain
rights in PSMA technology. Under the terms of such agreements, the Company sold
its 50% interest in the Joint Venture for an upfront cash payment of $13.2
million, potential future milestone payments totaling up to $52 million payable
upon regulatory approval and commercialization of the Joint Venture products,
and royalties on future product sales of the Joint Venture, if any.
For the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, Cytogen recorded
$133,000 and $498,000, respectively, of the Joint Venture's net losses. As of
March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the carrying value of the Company's
investment in the Joint Venture was $246,000 and $379,000, respectively, which
represents Cytogen's investment in the Joint Venture, less its cumulative share
of losses, which net investment is recorded in other assets. Selected financial

During the first quarter of 2005, the Company recognized $41,000 of
contract revenues for limited research and development services provided by the
Company to the Joint Venture. The Company did not provide any research services
to the Joint Venture in 2006.
4. BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB MEDICAL IMAGING, INC.
Effective January 1, 2004, the Company entered into a new manufacturing and
supply agreement with Bristol-Myers Squibb Medical Imaging, Inc. ("BMSMI"),
whereby BMSMI will manufacture, distribute and provide order processing and
customer service for Cytogen relating to QUADRAMET. Under the terms of the
agreement, Cytogen is obligated to pay at least $4.7 million annually, subject
to future annual price adjustment, through 2008, unless terminated by BMSMI or
Cytogen on two years prior written notice. This agreement will automatically
renew for five successive one-year periods unless terminated by BMSMI or Cytogen
on two years prior written notice. During each of the three months ended March
31, 2006 and 2005, Cytogen incurred $1.1 million of manufacturing costs for
QUADRAMET, all of which is included in cost of product revenue. The Company also
pays BMSMI a variable amount per month for each QUADRAMET order placed to cover
the costs of customer service which is included in selling, general and
administrative expenses.
The two primary components of QUADRAMET, particularly Samarium-153 and
EDTMP, are provided to BMSMI by outside suppliers. BMSMI obtains its supply of
Samarium-153 from a sole supplier, and EDTMP from another sole supplier.
Alternative sources for these components may not be readily available, and any
alternate suppliers would have to be identified and qualified, subject to all
applicable regulatory guidelines. If BMSMI cannot obtain sufficient quantities
of these components on commercially reasonable terms, or in a timely manner, it
would be unable to manufacture QUADRAMET on a timely and cost-effective basis.
5. LAUREATE PHARMA, L.P.
In September 2004, the Company entered into a non-exclusive manufacturing
agreement with Laureate Pharma, L.P. pursuant to which Laureate shall
manufacture PROSTASCINT and its primary raw materials for Cytogen in Laureate's
Princeton, New Jersey facility. Laureate is the sole manufacturer of PROSTASCINT
and its antibodies. The agreement will terminate, unless terminated earlier
pursuant to its terms, upon Laureate's completion of the specified production
campaign for PROSTASCINT and shipment of the resulting products from Laureate's
facility. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company anticipates it will pay
at least an aggregate of $5.1 million through the end of the term of contract.
Approximately $4.1 million
-16-
has been incurred under this agreement through March 31, 2006, and was recorded
as inventory when purchased. No amount was recorded during the first quarter of
2006.
6. WARRANT LIABILITY
In July and August 2005, the Company sold 3,104,380 shares of common stock
and 776,096 warrants to purchase shares of its common stock having an exercise
price of $6.00 per share. These warrants are exercisable beginning six months
and ending ten years after their issuance. The shares of common stock underlying
the warrants were registered under the Company's existing shelf registration
statement. The Company is required to maintain the effectiveness of the
registration statement as long as any warrants are outstanding.
Under EITF 00-19, to qualify as permanent equity, the equity derivative
must permit the issuer to settle in unregistered shares. The Company does not
have that ability under the securities purchase agreement for the warrants
issued in July and August 2005 and, as EITF 00-19 considers the ability to keep
a registration statement effective as beyond the Company's control, the warrants
cannot be classified as permanent equity and are instead classified as a
liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. At March 31, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, the Company recorded the warrant liability at its fair value
of $2.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively, using a Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31,
2006 2005
----------- -------------
Dividend yield.............................. 0% 0%
Expected volatility......................... 106% 106%
Expected life............................... 9.3 years 9.6 years
Risk-free interest rate..................... 4.40% 4.40%
Company Common Stock Price.................. $3.62 $2.74
Equity derivatives not qualifying for permanent equity accounting are
recorded at fair value and are remeasured at each reporting date until the
warrants are exercised or expired. Changes in the fair value of the warrants
will be reported in the consolidated statements of operations as non-operating
income or expense. At March 31, 2006, the fair value of the warrants increased
to $2.5 million, resulting in a charge of $631,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2006.
7. SAVIENT PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
In February 2006, the Company and Savient Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Savient")
executed a binding letter of intent to negotiate a definitive agreement granting
Cytogen exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX (tamoxifen citrate) in the
United States. SOLTAMOX, a cytostatic estrogen receptor antagonist, is the first
oral liquid hormonal therapy approved in the U.S. It is indicated for the
treatment of breast cancer in adjuvant and metastatic settings and to reduce the
risk of breast cancer in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or with high
risk of breast cancer.
In April 2006, the Company and Savient entered into a distribution
agreement granting the Company exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX. In
addition, the Company entered into a supply agreement with Rosemont
Pharmaceuticals Ltd. ("Rosemont"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Savient, for the
manufacture and supply of SOLTAMOX. See Note 9.
-17-
8. LITIGATION
In December 2005, Trapeziod Healthcare Communications LLC filed a complaint
against the Company in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Mercer
County, seeking approximately $426,000 in damages arising from the Company's
alleged failure to pay Trapezoid for marketing services allegedly provided to
the Company. The Company cannot predict the outcome of such litigation with
certainty. The Company plans to conduct a vigorous defense of such claim. At
March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company has established a reserve for
the full amount of this claim.
In January 2006, the Company filed a complaint against Advanced Magnetics
in the Massachusetts Superior Court for breach of contract, fraud, unjust
enrichment, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing in
connection with the parties' 2000 license agreement. The complaint seeks damages
along with a request for specific performance requiring Advanced Magnetics to
take all reasonable steps to secure FDA approval of COMBIDEX in compliance with
the terms of the licensing agreement. In February 2006, Advanced Magnetics filed
an answer to the Company's complaint and asserted various counterclaims,
including tortuous interference, defamation, consumer fraud and abuse of
process. The Company believes these counterclaims have no merit and plans to
conduct a vigorous defense of such counterclaims. Legal proceedings are subject
to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Consequently, the
Company is unable to estimate the ultimate financial impact, if any, to its
results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, the Company is, from time to time, subject to claims and suits
arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the
ultimate resolution of any such current matters would not have a material effect
on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 19, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the
Cytogen Corporation 2006 Equity Compensation Plan (the "2006 Plan"), subject to
stockholder approval. The Board of Directors of the Company has directed that
the proposal to approve the 2006 Plan be submitted to the Company's stockholders
for their approval at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders scheduled to be
held on June 13, 2006. Under the 2006 Plan, eligible participants may receive
grants in any of the following forms: (i) incentive stock options, (ii)
nonqualified stock options, (iii) stock units, (iv) stock awards, (v) stock
appreciation rights, and (vi) other stock-based awards. The Company has reserved
1,500,000 shares of Cytogen common stock for future issuance under the 2006
Plan.
On April 20, 2006, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement with Progenics providing for the sale to Progenics of the Company's
50% ownership interest in the Joint Venture. In addition, the Company entered
into an Amended and Restated PSMA/PSMP License Agreement with Progenics and the
Joint Venture pursuant to which the Company licensed the Joint Venture certain
rights in PSMA technology. Under the terms of such agreements, the Company sold
its 50% interest in the Joint Venture for an upfront cash payment of $13.2
million, potential future milestone payments totaling up to $52 million payable
upon regulatory approval and commercialization of the Joint Venture products,
and royalties on future product sales of the Joint Venture, if any.
-18-
On April 21, 2006, the Company and Savient entered into a distribution
agreement granting the Company exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX(TM)
(tamoxifen citrate) in the United States. In addition, the Company entered into
a supply agreement with Rosemont for the manufacture and supply of SOLTAMOX.
Under the terms of the final transaction, the Company paid Savient an upfront
licensing fee of $2 million and may pay additional contingent sales-based
milestone payments of up to a total of $4 million to Savient and Rosemont
Pharmaceuticals. The Company is required to pay Savient and Rosemont royalties
on net sales of SOLTAMOX.
On May 8, 2006, the Company entered into a royalty buyout agreement with
Berlex, Inc. for QUADRAMET. Under the terms of the agreement, Cytogen will no
longer pay Berlex a royalty on QUADRAMET sales in exchange for a one-time cash
payment of $6 million and the issuance of 623,441 shares of Cytogen common stock
to Berlex. The closing of the transaction is expected within 90 days, subject to
certain closing conditions. As additional consideration, Cytogen will also pay
Berlex one-time, sales-based milestone payments of $3.3 million and $5.0 million
the first time net sales of QUADRAMET in the U.S. territory reach $20 million
and $30 million, respectively, in any consecutive 12-month period. The two
sales-based milestone payments will be made in four equal quarterly
installments.

OVERVIEW
Founded in 1980, Cytogen Corporation of Princeton, New Jersey is a
biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients with
cancer by acquiring, developing and
-20-
commercializing innovative molecules targeting the sites and stages of cancer
progression. Our marketed products include QUADRAMET (samarium Sm-153 lexidronam
injection) and PROSTASCINT (capromab pendetide) kit for the preparation of
Indium In-111 capromab pendetide in the United States. On April 21, 2006, we and
Savient Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Savient") entered into a distribution agreement
granting us exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX(TM) (tamoxifen citrate) in
the United States. SOLTAMOX, a cytostatic estrogen receptor antagonist, is the
first oral liquid hormonal therapy approved in the U.S. It is indicated for the
treatment of breast cancer in adjuvant and metastatic settings and to reduce the
risk of breast cancer in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or with high
risk of breast cancer. We expect to launch SOLTAMOX during the third quarter of
2006. We also have exclusive United States marketing rights to COMBIDEX
(ferumoxtran-10) for all applications, and the exclusive right to market and
sell ferumoxytol (formerly Code 7228) for oncology applications in the United
States. Our development pipeline consists of therapeutics targeting
prostate-specific membrane antigen ("PSMA"), a protein highly expressed on the
surface of prostate cancer cells and the neovasculature of solid tumors.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN 2006
Cytogen Announces FDA Clears IND for CYT-500, a Monoclonal Antibody for the
Treatment of Metastatic Hormone-Refractory Prostate Cancer
On May 8, 2006, we announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
cleared an Investigational New Drug application for CYT-500, our lead
therapeutic candidate targeting PSMA. We expect to begin the first U.S. Phase I
clinical trial of CYT-500 in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer,
subject to Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval at the planned clinical
site. CYT-500 uses the same monoclonal antibody from our PROSTASCINT molecular
imaging agent, but is linked through a higher affinity linker than is used for
PROSTASCINT to a therapeutic as opposed to an imaging radionuclide. This novel
product candidate is designed to enable targeted delivery of a cytotoxic agent
to PSMA-expressing cells. We retain full and exclusive development rights to
CYT-500.
Cytogen Sells Ownership in PSMA Development Joint Venture to Progenics
On April 20, 2006, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement
with Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Progenics") providing for the sale to
Progenics of our 50% ownership interest in PSMA Development Company LLC ("PDC"),
our joint venture with Progenics for the development of in vivo cancer
immunotherapies based on PSMA. In addition, we entered into an Amended and
Restated PSMA/PSMP License Agreement with Progenics and PDC pursuant to which we
licensed PDC certain rights in PSMA technology. Under the terms of such
agreements, we sold our 50% interest in PDC for an upfront cash payment of $13.2
million, potential future milestone payments totaling up to $52 million payable
upon regulatory approval and commercialization of PDC products, and royalties on
future PDC product sales, if any. We will no longer be responsible for funding
PDC.

Cytogen and Savient Execute Marketing Agreement for SOLTAMOX(TM)
On April 21, 2006, we and Savient entered into a distribution agreement
granting us exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX(TM) (tamoxifen citrate) in
the United States. SOLTAMOX, a cytostatic estrogen receptor antagonist, is the
first oral liquid hormonal therapy approved in the U.S. It is indicated for the
treatment of breast cancer in adjuvant and metastatic settings and to reduce the
risk of breast cancer in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or with high
risk of breast cancer. In addition, we entered into a supply agreement with
Rosemont Pharmaceuticals Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Savient
("Rosemont"), for the manufacture and supply of SOLTAMOX. Under the terms of the
final transaction, we paid Savient an upfront licensing fee of $2 million and
may pay additional contingent sales-based milestone payments of up to a total of
$4 million to Savient and Rosemont Pharmaceuticals. We are required to pay
Savient and Rosemont royalties on net sales of SOLTAMOX. We expect to launch
SOLTAMOX during the third quarter of 2006.
Cytogen Enters into QUADRAMET Royalty Buyout Agreement with Berlex
On May 8, 2006, we entered into a royalty buyout agreement with Berlex,
Inc. for QUADRAMET. Under the terms of the agreement, we will no longer pay
Berlex a royalty on QUADRAMET sales in exchange for a one-time cash payment of
$6 million and the issuance of 623,441 shares of our common stock to Berlex. The
closing of the transaction is expected within 90 days, subject to certain
closing conditions. As additional consideration, we will also pay Berlex
one-time, sales-based milestone payments of $3.3 million and $5.0 million the
first time net sales of QUADRAMET in the U.S. territory reach $20 million and
$30 million, respectively, in any consecutive 12-month period. The two
sales-based milestone payments will be made in four equal quarterly
installments.

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2006 were $4.4 million compared to
$4.0 million for the same period in 2005. Product revenues accounted for 100%
and 99% of total revenues for the first quarters of 2006 and 2005, respectively.
License and contract revenues accounted for the remainder of revenues.
-22-
QUADRAMET. QUADRAMET sales were $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2006,
compared to $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2005. QUADRAMET sales accounted
for 51% and 52% of product revenues for the first quarters of 2006 and 2005,
respectively. The increase from the prior year period was due, in part, to the
effect of a 5% price increase implemented in June 2005. Currently, we market
QUADRAMET only in the United States and have no rights to market QUADRAMET in
Europe. We believe that the future growth and market penetration of QUADRAMET is
dependent upon, among other things: (i) distinguishing the physical properties
of QUADRAMET from first-generation agents within its class; (ii) empowering and
marketing to key prescribing audiences; (iii) broadening palliative use within
label beyond prostate cancer to include breast, lung and multiple myeloma; (iv)
evaluating the role of QUADRAMET in combination with other commonly used
oncology agents; and (v) expanding clinical development to demonstrate the
potential tumoricidal versus palliative attributes of QUADRAMET. We cannot
assure you that we will be able to successfully market QUADRAMET or that
QUADRAMET will achieve greater market penetration on a timely basis or result in
significant revenues for us.
PROSTASCINT. PROSTASCINT sales were $2.2 million for the first quarter of
2006, compared to $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2005. PROSTASCINT sales
accounted for 49% and 48% of product revenues for the first quarters of 2006 and
2005, respectively. The increase from the prior year period was due to the
implementation of a price increase for PROSTASCINT in June 2005, increased
demand associated with our focused marketing programs and our continued
identification of new distribution channels to better accommodate customer
needs. We believe that future growth and market penetration of PROSTASCINT is
dependent upon, among other things: (i) improving image quality through fusion
technology; (ii) validating the antigen targeted by PROSTASCINT as an
independent prognostic factor; (iii) the publication and presentation of
outcomes data; (iv) development of image-guided applications including
brachytherapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy, surgery, and cryotherapy;
and (v) expanding clinical development to demonstrate the potential for
PROSTASCINT to monitor response to cytotoxic therapies and image other cancers.
We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully market PROSTASCINT, or
that PROSTASCINT will achieve greater market penetration on a timely basis or
result in significant revenues for us.
LICENSE AND CONTRACT REVENUES. License and contract revenues were $2,000
and $41,000 for the first quarters of 2006 and 2005, respectively. During the
first quarter of 2005, we recognized $41,000 of contract revenues for limited
research and development services provided by us to the PSMA Development Company
LLC, our joint venture with Progenics. We did not provide any research services
to the joint venture in 2006.

======== ======== =======
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2006 were $11.8 million
compared to $10.7 million in the same quarter of 2005.
COST OF PRODUCT REVENUE. Cost of product revenue for each of the first
quarters of 2006 and 2005 was $2.4 million and primarily reflects manufacturing
costs for PROSTASCINT and QUADRAMET, royalties on our sales of products and
amortization of the up-front payment to Berlex Laboratories to reacquire the
marketing rights to QUADRAMET in 2003.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
expenses for the first quarter of 2006 were $6.2 million compared to $7.0
million in the same period of 2005. The decrease from the prior year period is
primarily driven by $706,000 of pre-launch costs in 2005 associated with
COMBIDEX, which is currently awaiting approval from the FDA, and the expanded
investment for the commercial support of both QUADRAMET and PROSTASCINT in 2005,
partially offset by the recognition of $403,000 of share-based compensation in
2006 for options and nonvested shares granted to employees. Any future changes
to our share-based compensation strategy or programs would likely affect the
amount of compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123(R).
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses for the first
quarter of 2006 were $3.0 million compared to $739,000 in the same period of
2005. The increase from the prior year period is primarily driven by new
clinical development initiatives for both QUADRAMET and PROSTASCINT and the
preclinical development costs associated with our radiolabeled therapeutic
program to attach the therapeutic radionuclide lutetium-177 as a payload to the
7E11 monoclonal antibody utilized in PROSTASCINT.
EQUITY IN LOSS OF JOINT VENTURE. Our share of the loss of PDC, our joint
venture with Progenics, was $133,000 and $498,000 during the first quarters of
2006 and 2005, respectively. Such amounts represented 50% of the joint venture's
net losses. We equally shared ownership and costs of the joint venture with
Progenics and accounted for the joint venture using the equity method of
accounting. On April 20, 2006, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement with Progenics providing for the sale to Progenics of our 50%
ownership interest in PDC. In addition, we entered into an Amended and Restated
PSMA/PSMP License Agreement with Progenics and PDC pursuant to which we licensed
PDC certain rights in PSMA technology. Under the terms of such agreements, we
sold our 50% interest in PDC for an upfront cash payment of $13.2 million,
potential future milestone payments totaling up to $52 million payable upon
regulatory approval and commercialization of PDC products, and royalties on
future PDC product sales, if any. We will no longer be responsible for funding
PDC.
-24-
INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE. Interest income for the first quarter of 2006 was
$297,000 compared to $143,000 in the same period of 2005. The increase in 2006
from the prior year period was due to a higher average yield on higher average
cash balances in 2006. Interest expense for the first quarter of 2006 was $6,000
compared to $42,000 in the same period in 2005. Interest expense includes
interest on outstanding debt, which was paid off in August 2005, and finance
charges related to various equipment leases that are accounted for as capital
leases.
INCREASE IN WARRANT LIABILITY. In connection with the sale of our common
stock and warrants in July and August 2005, we recorded the warrants as a
liability at their fair value using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and
will remeasure them at each reporting date until exercised or expired. Changes
in the fair value of the warrants are reported in the statements of operations
as non-operating income or expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2006,
we reported a charge of $631,000 related to the increase in fair value of these
warrants since December 31, 2005. The market price for our common stock has been
and may continue to be volatile. Consequently, future fluctuations in the price
of our common stock may cause significant increases or decreases in the fair
value of these warrants since December 31, 2005. The market price for our common
stock has been and may continue to be volatile. Consequently, future
fluctuations in the price of our common stock may cause significant increases or
decreases in the fair value of these warrants.
NET LOSS. Net loss for the first quarter of 2006 was $7.7 million compared
to $6.6 million reported in the first quarter of 2005. The basic and diluted net
loss per share for the first quarter of 2006 was $0.34 based on 22.5 million
weighted average common shares outstanding, compared to a basic and diluted net
loss per share of $0.43 based on 15.5 million weighted average common shares
outstanding for the same period in 2005.

(1) Effective January 1, 2004, we entered into a new manufacturing and supply
agreement with BMS-MI for QUADRAMET whereby BMS-MI manufactures,
distributes and provides order processing and customer services for us
relating to QUADRAMET. Under the terms of our agreement, we are obligated
to pay at least $4.7 million annually, subject to future annual price
adjustment, through 2008, unless terminated by BMS-MI or us on a two year
prior written notice. This agreement will automatically renew for five
successive one-year periods unless terminated by BMS-MI or us on a two-year
prior written notice. Accordingly, we have not included commitments beyond
March 31, 2008.
Additionally, in September 2004, we entered into a non-exclusive
manufacturing agreement with Laureate Pharma, L.P. under which Laureate
manufactures PROSTASCINT for us in its Princeton, New Jersey facility. The
agreement will terminate, unless earlier terminated pursuant to its terms,
upon Laureate's completion of the production campaign for PROSTASCINT and
shipment of the resulting products from Laureate's facility. Under the
terms of the agreement, we anticipate paying at least an aggregate of $5.1
million through the end of the term of the contract, of which approximately
$4.1 million was incurred through March 31, 2006.
(2) We acquired an exclusive license from The Dow Chemical Company for
QUADRAMET for the treatment of osteoblastic bone metastases in certain
territories. The agreement requires us to pay Dow royalties based on a
percentage of net sales of QUADRAMET, or a guaranteed contractual minimum
payment, whichever is greater, and future payments upon achievement of
certain milestones. Future annual minimum royalties due to Dow are $1.0
million per year in 2006 through 2012 and $833,000 in 2013.
In addition to the above, we are obligated to make certain royalty payments
based on sales of the related product and certain milestone payments if our
collaborative partners achieve specific development milestones or commercial
milestones.

========
OVERVIEW
Our cash and cash equivalents were $26.1 million as of March 31, 2006,
compared to $30.3 million as of December 31, 2005. During the three months ended
March 31, 2006 and 2005, net cash used in operating activities was $4.2 million
and $9.5 million, respectively. The decrease in cash usage from the prior year
period was primarily due to the prior year's build-up of PROSTASCINT inventory,
pre-launch costs associated with COMBIDEX in 2005 and a reduction in 2006 of our
investment in the joint venture. On April 20, 2006, we sold our 50% interest in
PDC for an upfront cash payment of $13.2 million. Effective after that date, we
are no longer funding the PDC's operations. In 2006, we expect operating
expenditures to continue at approximately the same levels as 2005.
Historically, our primary sources of cash have been proceeds from the
issuance and sale of our stock through public offerings and private placements,
product related revenues, revenues from contract research services, fees paid
under license agreements and interest earned on cash and short-term investments.
Our long-term financial objectives are to meet our capital and operating
requirements through revenues from existing products and licensing arrangements.
To achieve these objectives, we may enter into research and development
partnerships and acquire, in-license and develop other technologies, products or
services. Certain of these strategies may require payments by us in either cash
or stock in addition to the costs associated with developing and marketing a
product or technology. However, we believe that, if successful, such strategies
may increase long-term revenues. We cannot assure you of the success of such
strategies or that resulting funds will be sufficient to meet cash requirements
until product revenues are sufficient to cover operating expenses, if ever. To
fund these strategic and operating activities, we may sell equity, debt or other
securities as market conditions permit or enter into credit facilities.
OTHER LIQUIDITY EVENTS
On April 20, 2006, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement
with Progenics providing for the sale to Progenics of our 50% ownership interest
in PDC. In addition, we entered into an Amended and Restated PSMA/PSMP License
Agreement with Progenics and PDC pursuant to which we licensed PDC certain
rights in PSMA technology. Under the terms of
-27-
such agreements, we sold our 50% interest in PDC for an upfront cash payment of
$13.2 million, potential future milestone payments totaling up to $52 million
payable upon regulatory approval and commercialization of PDC products, and
royalties on future PDC product sales, if any. Effective after the sale, we are
no longer funding the PDC's operations.
On April 21, 2006, we and Savient entered into a distribution agreement
granting us exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX(TM) (tamoxifen citrate) in
the United States. SOLTAMOX, a cytostatic estrogen receptor antagonist, is the
first oral liquid hormonal therapy approved in the U.S. It is indicated for the
treatment of breast cancer in adjuvant and metastatic settings and to reduce the
risk of breast cancer in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or with high
risk of breast cancer. In addition, we entered into a supply agreement with
Rosemont for the manufacture and supply of SOLTAMOX. Under the terms of the
final transaction, we paid Savient an upfront licensing fee of $2 million and
may pay additional contingent sales-based milestone payments of up to a total of
$4 million to Savient and Rosemont Pharmaceuticals. We are required to pay
Savient and Rosemont royalties on net sales of SOLTAMOX. We expect to launch
SOLTAMOX during the third quarter of 2006.
On May 8, 2006, we entered into a royalty buyout agreement with Berlex,
Inc. for QUADRAMET. Under the terms of the agreement, we will no longer pay
Berlex a royalty on QUADRAMET sales in exchange for a one-time cash payment of
$6 million and the issuance of 623,441 shares of our common stock to Berlex. The
closing of the transaction is expected within 90 days, subject to certain
closing conditions. As additional consideration, we will also pay Berlex
one-time, sales-based milestone payments of $3.3 million and $5.0 million the
first time net sales of QUADRAMET in the U.S. territory reach $20 million and
$30 million, respectively, in any consecutive 12-month period. The two
sales-based milestone payments will be made in four equal quarterly
installments.
In September 2004, we entered into a non-exclusive manufacturing agreement
with Laureate Pharma, L.P. pursuant to which Laureate is manufacturing
PROSTASCINT and its primary raw materials for us in its Princeton, New Jersey
facility. Our agreement will terminate, unless terminated earlier pursuant to
its terms, upon Laureate's completion of the production campaign and shipment of
the resulting products from Laureate's facility. Under the terms of the
agreement, we anticipate paying at least an aggregate of $5.1 million through
the end of the contract term. Approximately $4.1 million has been incurred under
this agreement through March 31, 2006, and is recorded as inventory when
purchased. No payment was made during the first quarter of 2006. In October
2004, Laureate was acquired by Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. Laureate has
continued to operate as a full service contract manufacturing organization and
we have not experienced any disruption in Laureate's performance of its
obligations to produce PROSTASCINT.
Effective January 1, 2004, we entered into a new manufacturing and supply
agreement with BMS-MI whereby BMS-MI manufactures, distributes and provides
order processing and customer services for us relating to QUADRAMET. Under the
terms of the new agreement, we are obligated to pay at least $4.7 million
annually, subject to future annual price adjustment, through 2008, unless
terminated by BMS-MI or us on two years prior written notice. During the three
months ended March 31, 2006, we incurred $1.1 million of manufacturing costs for
QUADRAMET. This agreement will automatically renew for five successive one-year
periods
-28-
unless terminated by BMS-MI or us on a two year prior written notice. We also
pay BMS-MI a variable amount per month for each QUADRAMET order placed to cover
the costs of customer service. In addition, we expect our QUADRAMET sales and
marketing expenses to increase in 2006.
We acquired an exclusive license from The Dow Chemical Company for
QUADRAMET for the treatment of osteoblastic bone metastases in certain
territories. The agreement requires us to pay Dow royalties based on a
percentage of net sales of QUADRAMET, or a guaranteed contractual minimum
payment, whichever is greater, and future payments upon achievement of certain
milestones. Future annual minimum royalties due to Dow are $1.0 million per year
in 2006 through 2012 and $833,000 in 2013.
On May 6, 2005, we entered into a license agreement with The Dow Chemical
Company to create a targeted oncology product designed to treat prostate and
other cancers. The agreement applies proprietary MeO-DOTA bifunctional chelant
technology from Dow to radiolabel our PSMA antibody with a therapeutic
radionuclide. Under the agreement, proprietary chelation technology and other
capabilities, provided through ChelaMedSM radiopharmaceutical services from Dow,
will be used to attach a therapeutic radioisotope to the 7E11-C5 monoclonal
antibody utilized in our PROSTASCINT molecular imaging agent. As a result of the
agreement, we are obligated to pay a minimal license fee and aggregate future
milestone payments of $1.9 million for each licensed product and royalties based
on sales of related products, if any. Unless terminated earlier, the Dow
agreement terminates at the later of (a) the tenth anniversary of the date of
first commercial sale for each licensed product or (b) the expiration of the
last to expire valid claim that would be infringed by the sale of the licensed
product. We may terminate the license agreement with Dow on 90 days written
notice.
We have incurred negative cash flows from operations since our inception,
and have expended, and expect to continue to expend in the future, substantial
funds to implement our planned product development efforts, including
acquisition of products and complementary technologies, research and
development, clinical studies and regulatory activities, and to further our
marketing and sales programs. We expect that our existing capital resources
should be adequate to fund our operations and commitments at least into 2007. We
cannot assure you that our business or operations will not change in a manner
that would consume available resources more rapidly than anticipated. We expect
that we will have additional requirements for debt or equity capital,
irrespective of whether and when we reach profitability, for further product
development costs, product and technology acquisition costs, and working
capital.
Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will
depend on numerous factors, including: (i) the successful commercialization of
our products; (ii) the costs associated with the acquisition of complementary
products and technologies; (iii) progress in our product development efforts and
the magnitude and scope of such efforts; (iv) progress with clinical trials; (v)
progress with regulatory affairs activities; (vi) the cost of filing,
prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual
property rights; (vii) competing technological and market developments; and
(viii) the expansion of strategic alliances for the sales, marketing,
manufacturing and distribution of our products. To the extent that the currently
available funds and revenues are insufficient to meet current or planned
operating requirements, we will be required to obtain additional funds through
equity or debt financing, strategic
-29-
alliances with corporate partners and others, or through other sources. We
cannot assure you that the financial sources described above will be available
when needed or at terms commercially acceptable to us. If adequate funds are not
available, we may be required to delay, further scale back or eliminate certain
aspects of our operations or attempt to obtain funds through arrangements with
collaborative partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to
certain of our technologies, product candidates, products or potential markets.
If adequate funds are not available, our business, financial condition and
results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Financial Reporting Release No. 60 requires all companies to include a
discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of
financial statements. Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as amended,
includes a summary of our significant accounting policies and methods used in
the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. The following is a
brief discussion of the more significant accounting policies and methods used by
us. The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ materially from
those estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Product revenues include product sales by us to our customers. Product
sales are recognized when the customer takes ownership of the products and
assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable,
persuasive evidence of an agreement exists and the sales price is fixed or
determinable. Product returns are accepted under limited circumstances and an
allowance for returned products is estimated based upon historical experience.
We may provide rebates and volume discounts to our customers from time to time.
Such rebates and discounts are recorded as a reduction of product sales when
earned by the customer.
License and contract revenues include milestone payments and fees under
collaborative agreements with third parties, revenues from research services,
and revenues from other miscellaneous sources. We defer non-refundable up-front
license fees and recognize them over the estimated performance period of the
related agreement, when we have continuing involvement. Since the term of the
performance periods is subject to management's estimates, future revenues to be
recognized could be affected by changes in such estimates.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Our accounts receivable balances are net of an estimated allowance for
uncollectible accounts. We continuously monitor collections and payments from
our customers and maintain an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon
our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we
have identified. While we believe our reserve estimate to be appropriate, we may
find it necessary to adjust our allowance for uncollectible accounts if the
-30-
future bad debt expense exceeds our estimated reserve. We are subject to
concentration risks as a limited number of our customers provide a high percent
of total revenues, and corresponding receivables.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, as determined using
the first-in, first-out method, which most closely reflects the physical flow of
our inventories. Our products and raw materials are subject to expiration
dating. We regularly review quantities on hand to determine the need for
reserves for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on our estimated
forecast of product sales. Our estimate of future product demand may prove to be
inaccurate, in which case we may have understated or overstated our reserve for
excess and obsolete inventories.
CARRYING VALUE OF FIXED AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Our fixed assets and certain of our acquired rights to market our products
have been recorded at cost and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over
the estimated useful life of those assets. If indicators of impairment exist, we
assess the recoverability of the affected long-lived assets by determining
whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through undiscounted
future operating cash flows. If impairment is indicated, we measure the amount
of such impairment by comparing the carrying value of the assets to the present
value of the expected future cash flows associated with the use of the asset.
Adverse changes regarding future cash flows to be received from long-lived
assets could indicate that an impairment exists, and would require the write
down of the carrying value of the impaired asset at that time.
WARRANT LIABILITY
We follow Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 00-19, "Accounting for
Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Company's Own Stock" which provides guidance for distinguishing between
permanent equity, temporary equity and assets and liabilities. Under EITF 00-19,
to qualify as permanent equity, the equity derivative must permit us to settle
in unregistered shares. We do not have that ability under the securities
purchase agreement for the warrants issued in July and August 2005 and, as EITF
00-19 considers the ability to keep a registration statement effective as beyond
our control, the warrants cannot be classified as permanent equity and are
instead classified as a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet.
We record the warrant liability at its fair value using a Black-Scholes
option-pricing model and remeasure it at each reporting date until the warrants
are exercised or expired. Changes in the fair value of the warrants are reported
in the consolidated statements of operations as non-operating income or expense.
The fair value of the warrants is subject to significant fluctuation based on
changes in our stock price, expected volatility, expected life, the risk-free
interest rate and dividend yield. The market price for our common stock has been
and may continue to be volatile. Consequently, future fluctuations in the price
of our common stock may cause significant increases or decreases in the fair
value of the warrants issued in July and August 2005.
-31-
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
We account for share-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R),
"Share-Based Payment." Under the fair value recognition provision of this
statement, the share-based compensation, which is generally based on the fair
value of the awards calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on
the date of grant, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service period, generally the vesting period, for grants on or after January 1,
2006. Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date
requires judgment, including estimating expected dividend yield, expected
forfeiture rates, expected volatility, the expected term and expected risk-free
interest rates. If we were to use different estimates or a different valuation
model, our share-based compensation expense and our results of operations could
be materially impacted.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Share-Based Payment
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment,"
which revised SFAS No. 123 ("SFAS 123") and superseded Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, " Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25").
SFAS 123(R) requires that companies recognize compensation expense associated
with share-based compensation arrangements, including employee stock options, in
the financial statements effective as of the first interim or annual reporting
period that begins after June 15, 2005. SFAS 123(R) eliminates the Company's
ability to account for such transactions using the intrinsic method of
accounting under APB 25. SFAS 123(R) also requires that companies recognize
compensation expense associated with purchases of shares of common stock by
employees at a discount to market value under employee stock purchase plans that
do not meet certain criteria.
In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced the
adoption of a new rule allowing companies to implement SFAS 123(R) at the
beginning of their next fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005.
Accordingly, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) in its fiscal year beginning
January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. Under this
method, compensation expense is reflected in the financial statements beginning
January 1, 2006 with no restatement to the prior periods. As such, compensation
expense, which is measured based on the fair value of the instrument on the
grant date, is recognized for awards that are granted, modified, repurchased or
cancelled on or after January 1, 2006 as well as for the portion of awards
previously granted that have not vested as of January 1, 2006. The Company has
implemented the straight-line expense attribution method for all options granted
after January 1, 2006. Prior to adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company used the
accelerated attribution method in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 28,
"Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or
Award Plans" ("FIN 28"). The adoption of SFAS 123(R) has a material impact on
the Company's results of operations.
-32-
Abnormal Inventory Costs
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, "Inventory Costs, an
amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4" ("SFAS No. 151"), to clarify that abnormal
amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material
(spoilage) should be recognized as current period charges, and that fixed
production overheads should be allocated to inventory based on the normal
capacity of production facilities. This statement is effective for inventory
costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Accordingly,
the Company adopted SFAS No. 151 in its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006.
The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the Company in the
first quarter of 2006.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not have operations subject to risks of foreign currency
fluctuations, nor do we use derivative financial instruments in our operations.
Our exposure to market risk is principally confined to interest rate
sensitivity. Our cash equivalents and short-term investments are conservative in
nature, with a focus on preservation of capital. Due to the short-term nature of
our investments and our investment policies and procedures, we have determined
that the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations related to these
financial instruments are not material to our business.
We are exposed to certain risks arising from changes in the price of our
common stock, primarily due to potential effect of changes in fair value of the
warrant liability related to the warrants issued in July and August 2005. The
warrant liability is measured at fair value using a Black-Scholes option-pricing
model at each reporting date and is subject to significant increases or
decreases in value and a corresponding loss or gain in the statement of
operations due to the effects of changes in the price of common stock at period
end and the related calculation of volatility.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and
chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls
and procedures as of March 31, 2006. The term "disclosure controls and
procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, means controls and other procedures of a company that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in
the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures
include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files
or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and
communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and
principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure. Management recognized that any controls and procedures, no
matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
achieving their objectives and management necessarily applied its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based
-33-
on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer
concluded that, as of March 31, 2006, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective.
(2) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal
quarter ended as of March 31, 2006 that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
-34-
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In December 2005, Trapezoid Healthcare Communications LLC filed a complaint
against us in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Mercer County,
seeking approximately $426,000 in damages arising our of our alleged failure to
pay Trapezoid for marketing services allegedly provided to us. We plan to
conduct a vigorous defense of such claim. At March 31, 2006, the Company has
established a reserve for the full amount of this claim.
In January 2006, we filed a complaint against Advanced Magnetics in the
Massachusetts Superior Court for breach of contract, fraud, unjust enrichment,
and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing in connection
with the parties' 2000 license agreement. The complaint seeks damages along with
a request for specific performance requiring Advanced Magnetics to take all
reasonable steps to secure FDA approval of COMBIDEX in compliance with the terms
of the licensing agreement. In February 2006, Advanced Magnetics filed an answer
to our complaint and asserted various counterclaims, including tortuous
interference, defamation, consumer fraud and abuse of process. We believe these
counterclaims have no merit and we plan to conduct a vigorous defense of such
counterclaims.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
This section sets forth changes in the risks factors previously disclosed
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K due to our activities during the quarter ended
March 31, 2006.
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with the
other risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the information
included or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and
our Annual Report on Form 10-K in your decision as to whether or not to invest
in our common stock. If any of the risks or uncertainties described below or in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K actually occur, our business, financial condition
or results of operations would likely suffer. In that case, the trading price of
our common stock could fall, and you may lose all or part of the money you paid
to buy our common stock.
We have a history of operating losses and an accumulated deficit and expect to
incur losses in the future.
Given the high level of expenditures associated with our business and our
inability to generate revenues sufficient to cover such expenditures, we have
had a history of operating losses since our inception. We had net losses of $7.7
million and $6.6 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. We had an accumulated deficit of $420 million as of March 31,
2006.
In order to develop and commercialize our technologies, particularly our
prostate-specific membrane antigen technology, and expand our products, we
expect to incur significant increases in our expenses over the next several
years. As a result, we will need to generate significant additional revenue to
become profitable.
-35-
To date, we have taken affirmative steps to address our trend of operating
losses. Such steps include, among other things:
o undergoing steps to realign and implement our focus as a product-driven
biopharmaceutical company;
o establishing and maintaining our in-house specialty sales force;
o reacquiring North American and Latin American marketing rights to
QUADRAMET from Berlex Laboratories in August 2003; and
o enhancing our marketed product portfolio through marketing alliances and
strategic arrangements.
Although we have taken these affirmative steps, we may never be able to
successfully implement them, and our ability to generate and sustain significant
additional revenues or achieve profitability will depend upon the risk factors
discussed elsewhere in this section entitled, "Risk Factors" or in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. As a result, we may
never be able to generate or sustain significant additional revenue or achieve
profitability.
We depend on sales of QUADRAMET and PROSTASCINT for substantially all of our
near-term revenues.
We expect QUADRAMET and PROSTASCINT to account for substantially all of our
product revenues in the near future. For the quarter ended March 31, 2006,
revenues from QUADRAMET and PROSTASCINT accounted for approximately 51% and 49%,
respectively, of our product revenues. For the quarter ended March 31, 2005,
revenues from QUADRAMET and PROSTASCINT accounted for approximately 52% and 48%,
respectively, of our product revenues. If QUADRAMET or PROSTASCINT does not
achieve broader market acceptance, either because we fail to effectively market
such products or our competitors introduce competing products, we may not be
able to generate sufficient revenue to become profitable.
A Small Number of Customers Account for the Majority of Our Sales, and the Loss
of One of Them, or Changes in Their Purchasing Patterns, Could Result in Reduced
Sales, Thereby Adversely Affecting Our Operating Results.
We sell our products to a small number of radiopharmacy networks. During
the quarter ended March 31, 2006, we received 65% of our total revenues from
three customers, as follows: 43% from Cardinal Health (formerly Syncor
International Corporation); 13% from Mallinckrodt Inc.; and 9% from GE
Healthcare (formerly Amersham Health). During the year ended December 31, 2005,
we received 67% of our total revenues from three customers, as follows: 47% from
Cardinal Health (formerly Syncor International Corporation); 11% from
Mallinckrodt Inc.; and 9% from GE Healthcare (formerly Amersham Health). During
the year ended December 31, 2004, we received 68% of our total revenues from
three customers, as follows:
-36-
46% from Cardinal Health (formerly Syncor International Corporation); 12% from
Mallinckrodt Inc.; and 10% from GE Healthcare (formerly Amersham Health).
The small number of radiopharmacies, consolidation in this industry or
financial difficulties of these radiopharmacies could result in the combination
or elimination of customers for our products. We anticipate that our results of
operations in any given period will continue to depend to a significant extent
upon sales to a small number of customers. As a result of this customer
concentration, our revenues from quarter to quarter and business, financial
condition and results of operations may be subject to substantial
period-to-period fluctuations. In addition, our business, financial condition
and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by the failure
of customer orders to materialize as and when anticipated. None of our customers
have entered into an agreement requiring on-going minimum purchases from us. We
cannot assure you that our principal customers will continue to purchase
products from us at current levels, if at all. The loss of one or more major
customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
We rely heavily on our collaborative partners.
Our success depends largely upon the success and financial stability of our
collaborative partners. We have entered into the following agreements for the
development, sale, marketing, distribution and manufacture of our products,
product candidates and technologies:
o a license agreement with The Dow Chemical Company relating to the
QUADRAMET technology;
o a manufacturing and supply agreement for the manufacture of QUADRAMET
with Bristol-Myers Squibb Medical Imaging, Inc.;
o a manufacturing agreement for the manufacture of PROSTASCINT with
Laureate Pharma, L.P.;
o marketing, license and supply agreements with Advanced Magnetics, Inc.
related to COMBIDEX and ferumoxytol (formerly Code 7228);
o a distribution services agreement with Cardinal Health 105, Inc.
(formerly Cord Logistics, Inc.) for PROSTASCINT;
o a license agreement with The Dow Chemical Company relating to Dow's
proprietary MeO-DOTA bifunctional chelant technology for use with our
Therapeutic 7E11-C5 Monoclonal Antibody program;
o a development and manufacturing agreement with Laureate Pharma, L.P.
for the scale-up for the cGMP manufacturing of a MeO-DOTA chelator
conjugate of the 7E11-C5 monoclonal antibody; and
-37-
o a distribution agreement with Savient Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and a
manufacture and supply agreement with Savient and Rosemont
Pharmaceuticals Limited related to the supply and marketing of SOLTAMOX.
Because our collaborative partners are responsible for certain
manufacturing and distribution activities, among others, these activities are
outside our direct control and we rely on our partners to perform their
obligations. In the event that our collaborative partners are entitled to enter
into third party arrangements that may economically disadvantage us, or do not
perform their obligations as expected under our agreements, our products may not
be commercially successful. As a result, any success may be delayed and new
product development could be inhibited with the result that our business,
financial condition and results of operation could be significantly and
adversely affected.
In January 2006, we filed a complaint against Advanced Magnetics in the
Massachusetts Superior Court for breach of contract, fraud, unjust enrichment,
and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing in connection
with the parties' 2000 license agreement. The complaint seeks damages along with
a request for specific performance requiring Advanced Magnetics to take all
reasonable steps to secure FDA approval of COMBIDEX in compliance with the terms
of the licensing agreement. In February 2006, Advanced Magnetics filed an answer
to our complaint and asserted various counterclaims, including tortuous
interference, defamation, consumer fraud and abuse of process. We believe these
counterclaims have no merit and we plan to conduct a vigorous defense of these
claims.
Our products, generally, are in the early stages of development and
commercialization and we may never achieve the revenue goals set forth in our
business plan.
We began operations in 1980 and have since been engaged primarily in
research directed toward the development, commercialization and marketing of
products to improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other diseases. In
October 1996, we introduced for commercial use our PROSTASCINT imaging agent. In
March 1997, we introduced for commercial use our QUADRAMET therapeutic product.
In April 2006, we executed a distribution agreement with Savient granting
us exclusive marketing rights for SOLTAMOX (tamoxifen citrate) in the United
States. SOLTAMOX, an oral liquid hormonal therapy, is approved for marketing in
the United States. We expect to launch SOLTAMOX in the third quarter of 2006.
In May 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared an
Investigational New Drug application for CYT-500, our lead therapeutic candidate
targeting PSMA. We expect to begin the first U.S. Phase I clinical trial of
CYT-500 in patients with hormone- refractory prostate cancer, subject to
Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval at the planned clinical site. CYT-500
uses the same monoclonal antibody from our PROSTASCINT molecular imaging agent,
but is linked through a higher affinity linker than is used for PROSTASCINT to a
therapeutic as opposed to an imaging radionuclide. This PSMA technology is still
in the early stages of development.
-38-
In August 2000, we entered into a license and marketing agreement with
Advanced Magnetics for COMBIDEX, for all applications, and ferumoxytol (formerly
Code 7228) for oncology applications only. We have exclusive United States
marketing rights to COMBIDEX. On March 3, 2005, the FDA's Oncologic Drugs
Advisory Committee (ODAC) voted 15 to 4 to not recommend approval of the
proposed broad indication for COMBIDEX being sought by Advanced Magnetics. On
March 24, 2005, Advanced Magnetics, Inc. informed us that Advanced Magnetics
received an approvable letter from the FDA for COMBIDEX, subject to certain
conditions.
We cannot assure you, however, that Advanced Magnetics will obtain approval
from the FDA for COMBIDEX on a timely basis, if at all. If Advanced Magnetics
does not secure regulatory approval for COMBIDEX, we will not be permitted to
sell and market COMBIDEX as we have anticipated and we will not realize any
return on the significant amount of time and resources we have allocated to
COMBIDEX. Ferumoxytol is being developed by Advanced Magnetics for use as an
iron replacement therapeutic in chronic kidney disease patients and Advanced
Magnetics has stated that no clinical applications are currently planned or
contemplated for oncology applications. We cannot assure you that ferumoxytol
will be developed for oncology applications.
In July 2004, as part of our continuing efforts to reduce non-strategic
expenses, we initiated the closure of facilities at our AxCell Biosciences
subsidiary. Research projects through academic, governmental and corporate
collaborators will continue to be supported and additional applications for the
intellectual property and technology at AxCell are being pursued. We may be
unable to further develop or commercialize any of these products and
technologies in the future.
Our business is therefore subject to the risks inherent in an early-stage
biopharmaceutical business enterprise, such as the need:
o to obtain sufficient capital to support the expenses of developing our
technology and commercializing our products;
o to ensure that our products are safe and effective;
o to obtain regulatory approval for the use and sale of our products;
o to manufacture our products in sufficient quantities and at a reasonable
cost;
o to develop a sufficient market for our products; and
o to attract and retain qualified management, sales, technical and
scientific staff.
The problems frequently encountered using new technologies and operating in
a competitive environment also may affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations. If we fail to properly address these risks and attain our
business objectives, our business could be significantly and adversely affected.
-39-
We may need to raise additional capital, which may not be available.
Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $26.1 million at
March 31, 2006. We expect that our existing capital resources should be adequate
to fund our operations and commitments into 2007.
We have incurred negative cash flows from operations since our inception
and have expended, and expect to continue to expend in the future, substantial
funds based upon the:
o success of our product commercialization efforts;
o success of any future acquisitions of complementary products and
technologies we may make;
o magnitude, scope and results of our product development and research and
development efforts;
o progress of preclinical studies and clinical trials;
o progress toward regulatory approval for our products;
o costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and
other intellectual property rights;
o competing technological and market developments; and
o expansion of strategic alliances for the sale, marketing and
distribution of our products.
Our business or operations may change in a manner that would consume
available resources more rapidly than anticipated. We expect that we will have
additional requirements for debt or equity capital, irrespective of whether and
when we reach profitability, for further product development costs, product and
technology acquisition costs and working capital. To the extent that our
currently available funds and revenues are insufficient to meet current or
planned operating requirements, we will be required to obtain additional funds
through equity or debt financing, strategic alliances with corporate partners
and others, or through other sources. These financial sources may not be
available when we need them or they may be available, but on terms that are not
commercially acceptable to us. If adequate funds are not available, we may be
required to delay further scale back or eliminate certain aspects of our
operations or attempt to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative
partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our
technologies, product candidates, products or potential markets. If adequate
funds are not available, our business, financial condition and results of
operations will be materially and adversely affected.
