BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) (1) DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Biokeys Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the Company) is a development stage enterprise, which conducts biomedical research and development focused on treatments for cancer and certain viral infections, including HIV. The Company currently does not market any product. Through its license agreements with University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (M.D. Anderson) and University of Southern California (USC), the Company has rights to drug candidates in varying early stages of development. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, the interim statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements and related notes in the Company's Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all necessary adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Biokeys Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Biokeys, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ from those estimates. -7- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) The most significant accounting estimates relate to valuing equity transactions. The values assigned to stock warrants granted to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 96-18, ACCOUNTING FOR EQUITY INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE ISSUED TO OTHER THAN EMPLOYEES FOR ACQUIRING, OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH SELLING, GOODS OR SERVICES, which require that such costs be measured at the end of each reporting period to account for changes in the fair value of the Company's common stock until the options or warrants are vested. The Company values warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Common stock is valued using the market price of common stock on the measurement date as defined in EITF 96-18. Preferred stock is valued at its liquidation value. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for employee stock-based compensation, and includes the required footnote disclosures of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 in its audited financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-KSB. The Company accounts for nonemployee stock-based compensation in accordance with EITF 96-18. Amounts are based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. CASH EQUIVALENTS Highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. GOODWILL Goodwill (excess of purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired) was being amortized using the straight-line method over two years. The Company recorded amortization of goodwill of $1,900,709 and $3,801,418 during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001. Through December 31, 2001, the Company had not been able to raise sufficient capital to ensure future funding of its research and development; consequently, the Company reviewed the carrying value of goodwill for impairment and reduced its carrying value to zero through a noncash charge of $5,702,130 at December 31, 2001. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The costs of improvements that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS Costs associated with arranging debt financing are deferred and amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the notes payable. -8- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) DEBT DISCOUNT The discount on notes payable is being amortized using the effective interest method through the stated due date. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS All research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include Company-sponsored research and development. LICENSE AGREEMENTS Costs of license agreements for patent rights and technology rights that currently have no alternative future uses are expensed as research and development costs. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that property and equipment and intangible or other noncurrent assets may be impaired, an evaluation of the recoverability of currently recorded costs will be made. If an evaluation is required, the estimated value of undiscounted future net cash flows associated with the asset is compared to the asset's carrying value to determine if impairment exists. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. INCOME TAXES Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of the change in the asset or liability during the period. SUPPLEMENTARY CASH FLOW INFORMATION Noncash investing and financing transactions excluded from the statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 are accrued Series A preferred stock dividends payable of $135,518 and $128,000, respectively. -9- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (SFAS No. 141) which eliminates the pooling of interests method of accounting and requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method. Adoption of SFAS No. 141 did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. The FASB also issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (SFAS No. 142), which was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2002. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives no longer be amortized. SFAS No. 142 further requires that the fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives be tested for impairment upon adoption of this statement, annually and upon the occurrence of certain events and be written down to fair value if considered impaired. Adoption of SFAS No. 142 did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations because, as of December 31, 2001, it had no goodwill or other intangible assets with indefinite lives. The FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS (SFAS No. 143), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement applies to all entities that have legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, or normal use of the assets. SFAS No. 143 will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2003. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 143 will have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations. The FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS (SFAS No. 144), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. While SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, it retains many of the fundamental provisions of that statement. SFAS No. 144 also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, REPORTING THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - REPORTING THE EFFECTS OF DISPOSAL OF A SEGMENT OF A BUSINESS, AND EXTRAORDINARY, UNUSUAL, AND INFREQUENTLY OCCURRING EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS, for the disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2002. Adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. -10- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) The FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145, RESCISSION OF FASB STATEMENTS NO. 4, 44, AND 64, AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENTS NO. 13 AND TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS (SFAS No. 145), which provides guidance for income statement classification of gains and losses on extinguishments of debt and accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. SFAS No. 145 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 145 will have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations. The FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, ACCOUNTING FOR EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES (SFAS No. 146), which addresses significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for pursuant the guidance set forth in EITF Issue No. 94-3, LIABILITY RECOGNITION OF CERTAIN EMPLOYEE TERMINATION BENEFITS AND OTHER COSTS TO EXIT AN ACTIVITY. SFAS No. 146 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 146 will have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations. (3) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 were as follows: USEFUL JUNE 30, LIVES 2002 DECEMBER 31, 2001 ------------------- -------------------- -------------------- Office furniture and equipment 5 years $ 32,198 32,198 Computer software and equipment 3 years 9,160 9,160 -------------------- -------------------- 41,358 41,358 Less accumulated depreciation and amortization (28,954) (27,746) -------------------- -------------------- $ 12,404 13,612 ==================== ==================== (4) NOTES PAYABLE In October and December 2001, the Company issued notes payable totaling $300,000 and $150,000 respectively. The notes bear interest at 12% and are due on the earlier of November 1, 2002 or the date of receipt by the Company of gross proceeds of at least $600,000 from private placement offerings. Interest accrues at 12% annually and will be paid in shares of common stock when the notes are repaid, based on the five-day average closing price of common stock preceding the date when interest is due. The notes were issued with detachable warrants to purchase a total of 450,000 shares of common stock through November 2006 at an exercise price of $4.00 per share through December 31, 2002, and thereafter at an exercise price that will be fixed at the higher of $2.50 or the average closing price of the Company's common stock during the 20 trading days prior to December 31, 2002, not to exceed $4.00 per share. -11- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) The entire proceeds of $450,000 were allocated to the warrants. The fair value of the warrants, calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, is greater than the proceeds. Of the original debt discount of $450,000, $118,668 and $237,335 was amortized during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, and the debt is reported at $291,774, net of debt discount of $158,226, at June 30, 2002. The discount is being amortized to the redemption value of the debt through the stated due date of the notes payable. (5) PREFERRED STOCK Shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into common stock at $4.00 per share. The preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends, carries cumulative dividends at 8% per annum payable semi-annually, and provides for future adjustments in conversion price if specified dilutive events take place. The preferred stock is redeemable at the option of the Company at any time the closing price of common stock remains at a level of at least $8 per share for 20 consecutive days if the Company is listed on the American Stock Exchange or NASDAQ at such time, with the redemption price being equal to the liquidation preference. In addition, at any time after July 1, 2003, the Company may call all or any portion of the outstanding preferred stock for redemption on at least 30 days' notice, at a redemption price equal to 105% of the liquidation preference plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. The Company entered into an agreement with a corporate investor under which the investor purchased, for $300,000 in cash in April 2002, 200,000 shares of a new class of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock which will be authorized and issued by the Company. The new Series B shares will have a par value of $0.01 per share and a liquidation preference of $1.50 per share and, at the election of the investor, will be convertible into shares of common stock on a share for share basis after a date to be determined. Under the agreement with the investor, the Company will be obligated to issue and deliver the new Series B shares to the investor, as well as five-year warrants entitling the investor to purchase, after a date to be determined, up to 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. (6) EQUITY TRANSACTIONS In February 2001, the Company granted 100,000 shares of common stock to a consulting firm for financial consulting services to be provided in 2001. The Company recognized the value of these shares, $375,000, as a noncash charge to expense during 2001. In May 2001, the Company repurchased warrants to purchase 50,254 shares of common stock and sold the same warrants in June 2001. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.49 per share. In August 2001, two warrant holders exercised warrants through a cashless exercise. Warrants to purchase a total of 271,758 shares of common stock were exchanged for a total of 218,493 shares of common stock. In October 2001, the Company issued 93,421 shares of common stock valued at $213,000 to pay dividends on the Series A convertible preferred stock through June 30, 2001. -12- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) In December 2001, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a third party for financial consulting services. The services are being paid through the issuance of 273 shares of Series A preferred stock, 12,585 shares of common stock, and five-year warrants to purchase 34,125 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The compensation vests 50% in December 2001 and 50% in December 2002. The Company recognized the value of 50% of these equity instruments, $179,911, as a noncash charge to expense in 2001. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Common stock was valued using the market price of common stock as defined in EITF 96-18. Series A preferred stock was valued at the liquidation value of $1,000 per share. The Company will measure the costs at the end of each reporting period, until the second vesting date in December 2002, to account for changes in the fair value of the unvested equity instruments. The Company recognized expense of $43,724 and $87,452 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively. In March 2002, the Company transferred warrants which had previously been held in escrow to three investors who immediately exercised the warrants for the purchase of a total of 229,573 shares of common stock at $0.49 per share. The Company recognized general and administrative expense of $289,262, which represents the difference between the fair value and exercise price on the date of the transfer.

(10) OPERATIONAL STATUS The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and had a net loss of $1,436,355 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. -15- (Continued)
BIOKEYS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (A Development Stage Enterprise) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 (unaudited) To date, the Company has been principally engaged in licensing and research and development efforts. The Company has no current revenues, is not marketing any products, and projects a loss from operations for 2002. The Company will require additional capital, which it intends to obtain through equity and debt offerings and/or strategic partnership in order to continue to operate its business. The Company's ability to meet its obligations as they become due and to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the expenses, difficulties and delays frequently encountered in operating a new business, particularly since the Company will focus on research, development and unproven technology which may require a lengthy period of time and substantial expenditures to complete. Even if the Company is able to successfully develop new products or technologies, there can be no assurance that the Company will generate sufficient revenues from the sale or licensing of such products and technologies to be profitable. Management believes that the Company's ability to meet its obligations as they become due and to continue as a going concern are dependent upon obtaining additional financing. (11) LITIGATION In the normal course of business, the Company may become subject to lawsuits and other claims and proceedings. Such matters are subject to uncertainty and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened lawsuit or proceeding that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations. -16-
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL Biokeys Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as BioQuest, Inc. (the "Company" or "we"), is a development stage enterprise which conducts biomedical research and development focused on treatments for cancer and certain viral infections, including HIV. The Company currently does not market any product. Through its license agreements with the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and the University of Southern California, the Company has rights to drug candidates in varying early stages of development. On October 10, 2000, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BioQuest, Inc. merged with Biokeys, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the Company changed its name from BioQuest, Inc. to Biokeys Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and the shareholders of Biokeys, Inc. became stockholders of the Company. For financial reporting purposes, the merger was accounted for as a purchase and the Company was considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a development-stage biomedical research company, we have not yet generated any revenues from our anticancer and antiviral drug candidates and have had no earnings since inception. Our expenses from inception have related to costs incurred in research activities for the development of our drug candidates and administrative expenses required to support these efforts. As of June 30, 2002 we have an accumulated development-stage deficit of $(25,479,697), which includes charges totaling $15,205,675 during 2000 and 2001 for amortization of goodwill and an impairment loss resulting in a write-off of the goodwill resulting from the merger with Biokeys, Inc. We expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future, and such losses will likely increase as we approach human clinical trials for our CoFactor drug and our HIV drugs. Future profitability will be dependent upon our ability to complete the development of our pharmaceutical products, obtain necessary regulatory approvals and effectively market such products. Also, the Company, which has only limited resources, will be required to establish agreements with other parties for the clinical testing, manufacturing, commercialization and sale of its products. The Company's efforts are currently being hampered by a lack of working capital, and we will need to obtain significant additional financing in order to conduct clinical trials and support our operations, as discussed below under "Liquidity and Capital Resources." The Company is subject to the risks of not being able to arrange such financing and the other risk factors listed under "Management's Discussion and Analysis - Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES -17-
VALUATION OF EQUITY TRANSACTIONS The most significant accounting estimates relate to valuing equity transactions. The values assigned to stock options or warrants granted to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services," which require that such costs be measured at the end of each reporting period to account for changes in the fair value of the Company's common stock until the options or warrants are vested. Series A preferred stock is valued at the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share and Series B preferred stock is being valued at its liquidation preference of $1.50 per share. Common stock is valued using the market price of common stock on the measurement date as defined in EITF 96-18. The Company values warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The model considers a number of factors, including the market price and expected volatility of our common stock at the date of measurement or re-measurement. The expense related to all equity transactions is amortized over the vesting period of the related equity instruments. The amount of compensation expense we record in future periods could fluctuate significantly from period to period as a result of: (a) the periodic re-measurement of equity instruments from non-employees principally as a result of fluctuations in the market price of our common stock; (b) the method and period over which the value is amortized as charges to operations; (c) additional equity instruments granted; and (d) subsequent forfeitures or cancellations of unvested instruments. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS Research and development costs consist of costs incurred for Company-sponsored as well as collaborative research and development activities. These costs include direct and research-related overhead expenses and are expensed as incurred. Patent costs and technology license fees for technologies that are utilized in research and development and have no alternative future use are expensed when incurred. THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 The Company continued to have no revenues and only minimal interest income in the calender quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, compared with $28,741 of interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2001, earned on the balance of funds from the Company's 2000 private placement which were applied to operations. During the second quarter of 2002, we continued our research and development efforts in connection with our CoFactor product for colorectal cancer and our EradicAide and BlockAide products for HIV/AIDS. We incurred research and development expenses of $146,449 for the quarter, down from $509,544 in the year-earlier period. The earlier period reflected a front-end payment of $407,245 on account of the Company's Sponsored Research Agreement No. 4 for -18-
research being conducted for the Company at University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Such research provided further pre-clinical data on the Company's EradicAide and BlockAide HIV therapeutic products under development. General and Administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2002 decreased to $397,484 from $805,109 in the year-earlier period. The year-earlier period included a non-cash expense of $359,375 in the second quarter of 2001 relating to a consulting agreement for which the Company issued 100,000 shares of its common stock. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $969,249 compared to $1,052,827 in the year-earlier period. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company incurred a non-cash expense of $289,262 resulting from the transfer and exercise in March 2002 of escrowed warrants, originally issued in 2000 at an exercise price of $0.49, in order to generate working capital for the Company. Depreciation and amortization amounted to $128,272 for the second quarter and $256,758 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, compared with $1,902,367 for the three months and $3,804,734 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The larger amounts in 2001 included quarterly goodwill amortization expense of $1,900,709 resulting from the October 2000 merger with Biokeys, Inc., which expense is now eliminated for periods subsequent to December 31, 2001 because of a write down of the carrying value of such goodwill through a non-cash charge of $5,702,130 as of December 31, 2001. During the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company amortized debt discount of $118,668 and $237,335 relating to $450,000 of notes payable that were issued in the fourth quarter of 2001. Interest expense amounted to $13,465 for the three months and $26,780 for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared with no such expense in the year-earlier periods, as interest was accrued on $450,000 of notes issued to investors in late 2001 to obtain working capital. Debt discount related to the $450,000 of notes payable is being amortized through the stated due date of November 1, 2002, and amortization of debt discount recorded during 2002 is discussed above. As a result of the substantial reduction in amortization expense primarily related to goodwill resulting from the merger with Biokeys, Inc. and the other factors noted above, the Company's loss for the second quarter declined to $(685,111) from a loss of $(3,140,388) for the year-earlier period, and the loss per share decreased to $(0.05) from $(0.22) per share in the year-earlier period. For the six-month period, the loss declined to $(1,436,355) or $(0.10) per share from $(5,338,367) or $(0.37) per share in the first half of 2001. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has incurred negative cash flows since its inception, and has funded its activities primarily through short-term loans and sales of equity securities. As of June 30, 2002, cash amounted to $56,446, compared with $164,476 on December 31, 2001. The Company does not have any bank or any other commercial financing arrangements. The Company's operations since the merger with Biokeys, Inc. have been funded primarily from the proceeds of its overseas private placement offering consummated in August and September 2000, by which the Company raised a total of $3.2 million through the issuance of its Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock. As previously reported, the Company intends to move its CoFactor product into human clinical trials in the U.S., since the FDA has approved the Company's Investigational New Drug Application ("IND") for Phase II studies. Also, the Company intends to seek approval and begin trials in Sweden for Phase II and Phase III testing of CoFactor during the second half of 2002. In addition, the Company intends to pursue a study of its BlockAide drug candidate for HIV/AIDS beginning during the second half of 2002, and plans to file an IND for its EradicAide product for HIV/AIDS by early 2003. The Company will need, and continues to seek, significant funding to conduct these trials and studies, either through a commercial partnership, additional financing, or -19-
a combination of both, the cost of which is expected to total between $8 million and $10 million for both product groups over the next 18 months. In the second quarter, we were able to obtain $300,000 in funding from the sale of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to a corporate investor, and $117,600 in funding through the exercise of outstanding warrants. We believe our current resources are sufficient to fund our general and administrative overhead until the end of September 2002, at which time we will need to obtain additional financing of approximately $1,000,000 to cover corporate overhead, including accounts payable, through the first quarter of 2003. We are seeking the additional resources required to fund the research projects described above, as well as general and administrative expenses, and such activities can proceed only after such financing is available. We are currently formulating plans for such financing and, while the Company is actively seeking such financing, no commitments have been obtained. The Company raised approximately $450,000 through the issuance of short-term notes and warrants to nine accredited investors in October and December 2001. The notes mature November 1, 2002, and the Company will be required to negotiate an extension of such maturity date or make other provision for the disposition of the notes in connection with seeking additional financing for 2002 and 2003. The Company will be required to obtain such funding through equity or debt financing, strategic alliances with corporate partners and others, or through other sources not yet identified. The Company cannot guarantee that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay, scale-back or eliminate certain aspects of its operations or attempt to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies, product candidates, products or potential markets. The Company's dependence on obtaining additional capital will continue at least until the Company is able to begin marketing its new technologies. The Company's future capital requirements and the adequacy of its financing will depend upon numerous factors, including the successful commercialization of the Company's drug candidates, progress in its product development efforts, progress with preclinical studies and clinical trials, government grants, the cost and timing of production arrangements, the development of effective sales and marketing activities, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing intellectual property rights, competing technological and market developments, and the development of strategic alliances for the marketing of its products. PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS [None] ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES. AUTHORIZATION OF SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK In April 2002, the Company entered into a preliminary agreement (the "Preliminary Agreement") with a corporate investor under which the investor agreed to subscribe for 200,000 shares of a new class of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to be authorized and issued by the -20-
Company. The Preliminary Agreement contemplated an initial subscription payment of $300,000, which was received by the Company in April 2002, with an option to purchase additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The subscription also included the issuance 5-year warrants entitling the investor to purchase up to 50,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. The Company also granted the investor a right of first refusal to serve as a provider of an oral delivery system for future company products, which expired in June 2002. The Preliminary Agreement was to be replaced with more detailed and definitive agreements. However, the Company and the corporate investor have agreed not to proceed with such definitive agreements. Accordingly, the Company will be required to issue 200,000 shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and 50,000 warrants to the investor, which issuance is expected to take place in the third quarter. During the second quarter, the Company received $117,600 in funding from the exercise of outstanding warrants for the purchase of a total of 240,000 shares of Common Stock. Such warrants were transferred from Dr. Francis O'Donnell, a stockholder of the Company and a director of its Biokeys, Inc. subsidiary, to accredited investors who agreed to exercise such warrants as a means of providing cash for the Company's working capital needs. The warrants were contributed for the benefit of the Company by Dr. O'Donnell, who received no consideration from the Company or the investors in connection with the transfer. The warrants, and the shares being issued to the investors described above, were delivered under agreements containing appropriate investment representations, were endorsed with the Company's restricted stock legend, and are subject to a stop transfer instruction recorded by the transfer agent. Accordingly, the Company views the warrants and such shares as exempt from registration under Section 4(2) and/or 4(6) of the Securities Act. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES None. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matter was submitted to a vote of securities holders, through solicitation of proxies or otherwise, during the first six months of 2002. ITEM 5.
