Description of Business



1.           Description of Business

Antares Pharma, Inc. (“Antares”Antares,” the “Company” or the “Company”“we”) is a product development company committed to improving pharmaceuticals through its patented drug delivery systems. Antares has multiple development partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies. The Company’s products are designed to improve safety and efficacy profiles by minimizing dosing and reducing side effects while enabling improved patient compliance. Antares has three validated drug delivery systems: the ATDTM Advanced Transdermal Gel Delivery system; subcutaneous injection technology platforms, including VibexTM disposable pressure-assisted auto injectors, ValeoTM/Vision® reusable needle-free injectors, and disposable multi-use pen injectors; and Easy TecTM oral disintegrating tablets. Two of the systems have generated FDA-approved products.


Our Parenteral Medicines (device) division is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where we develop and manufacture with partners novel pressure assistedpressure-assisted injectors, with and without needles, which allow patients to self-inject drugs. We make a reusable, needle-free, spring-action injector device known as the Medi-Jector VISION®, which is marketed for use with insulin and human growth hormone.hormone (“hGH”).  We have had success in achieving distribution of our device for use with hGH through licenses to pharmaceutical partners, and itwhich has resulted in continuing market growth and, we believe, a high degree of customer satisfaction. Distribution of growth hormone injectors occurs in Europe, Japan and other Asian countries through our pharmaceutical company relationships.  Recently, our needle-free injector was approved for use in the U.S. with Tev-Tropin®, which is the brand of human growth hormonehGH sold by our pharmaceutical partner Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Teva”).


We have also developed variations of the needle-free injector by adding a very small hidden needle to a pre-filled, single-use disposable injector, called the Vibex™ pressure assisted auto injectionpressure-assisted autoinjection system. This system is an alternative to the Medi-Jector Vision® system for use with injectable drugs in unit dose containers and is suitable for branded and branded generic injectables.  We also developed a disposable multi-dose pen injector for use with standard multi-dose cartridges.  We have entered into multiple licenses for these devices mainly in the U.S. and Canada with Teva.


Our Pharma division is located in Basel, Switzerland, where we develop pharmaceutical products utilizing our transdermal systems.  Several licensing agreements with pharmaceutical companies of various sizes have led to successful clinical evaluation of our formulations.  In 2006, the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved our first transdermal gel with a partner’s drug product for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms in post-menopausal women.  We are also developing our own transdermal gel-based products for the market and have initiated a pivotal Phase III safety and efficacy trial for Anturol™Anturol®, our oxybutynin transdermal gel product for overactive bladder.


Our corporate headquarters is located in Ewing, New Jersey.

Subsequent Events


In July

As discussed in Note 9, the Company elected early adoption of ASU 2009-13.  The Company elected to adopt ASU 2009-13 on a prospective basis, with retrospective application to January 1, 2009.

During the third quarter of 2009, the Company raised gross proceeds of $8,500,000amended the License, Development and Supply Agreement with Teva originally entered into in a registered direct offering through the sale of shares of its common stock and warrants. The Company sold a total of 10,625,000 units, each unit consisting of (i) one share of common stock and (ii) one warrant to purchase 0.4 of a share of common stock (or a total of 4,250,000 shares), at a purchase price of $0.80 per unit. The warrants will be exercisable six months after issuance at $1.00 per share and will expire 5 years from the date of issuance.

In July of 2009,2006.  Under the terms of the amendment, the Company received a payment of $4,076,375 from Teva for tooling in the amount of approximately $4,000,000 in connection with an amendment to a License, Development and Supply Agreement signed in July 2006. Teva purchased tooling from the Companyprocess that had a carrying value of approximately $1,200,000 and paid the Company infor an advance for the design, development and purchase of additional tooling and automation equipment.

equipment, all of which is related to an undisclosed, fixed, single-dose, disposable injector product using the Company’s Vibex™ autoinjector platform.  The Company believes thatchanges to the recent equity financing,agreement related to this payment along with various other changes to the recent paymentoriginal terms resulted in a material modification to the agreement.  Because the agreement was materially modified, the accounting was re-evaluated under ASU 2009-13, and the provisions of ASU 2009-13 were applied as if they were applicable from Tevainception of the agreement.  The re-evaluation resulted in the agreement being separated into three units of accounting and projected product sales, product development,resulted in changes to both the method of revenue recognition and the period over which revenue will be recognized.  Under the new accounting, the original license revenues,fee and milestone payments received will be recognized as revenue over the development period, the $4,076,375 payment received will be recognized as revenue as various tools and equipment are completed and delivered, and revenue during the manufacturing period will be recognized as devices are sold and royalties will provide sufficient fundsare earned.  The accounting literature applicable at the time of the original agreement required the entire arrangement to supportbe considered a single unit of accounting.  Therefore, the payments received and the development costs incurred were being deferred and would have been recognized from the start of manufacturing through the end of the initial contract period.  The amendment and adoption of ASU 2009-13 resulted in the recognition of revenue previously deferred of $434,111 and the recognition of costs previously deferred of $536,732 recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis in the third quarter of 2009.  Also, tooling in process of approximately $1,200,000 sold to Teva was reclassified from equipment, molds, furniture and fixtures to deferred costs.  Adoption of ASU 2009-13 had no impact on the accounting for any of the Company’s other revenue arrangements containing multiple deliverables.


The table below shows amounts with adoption of ASU 2009-13 as reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and the amounts as they would have been reported without adoption of ASU 2009-13.

In addition, you should refer to the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for a discussion of other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those described by our forward-looking statements.  As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements contained in this report will prove to be accurate and, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material.


We encourage readers of this report to understand forward-looking statements to be strategic objectives rather than absolute targets of future performance.  Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.  We do not intend to update publicly any forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by law.  In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should read not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame, if at all.


The following discussion and analysis, the purpose of which is to provide investors and others with information that we believe to be necessary for an understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations, should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes and other information contained in this report.


Overview


We develop, produce and market pharmaceutical delivery products, including transdermal gels, oral disintegrating tablets and reusable needle-free and disposable pressure assisted auto injectorpressure-assisted autoinjector and pen injector systems. In addition, we have several products and compound formulations under development.  We have operating facilities in the U.S. and Switzerland.  Our U.S. operation manufactures and markets reusable needle-free injection devices and related disposables, and develops disposable pressure assisted auto injectorpressure-assisted autoinjector and pen injector systems. These operations, including all development and some U.S. administrative activities, are located in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  We also have operations located in Basel, Switzerland, which consist of administration and facilities for the development of transdermal gels and oral disintegrating tablet products.  Our Swiss operations focus principally on research, development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products and include a number of license agreements with pharmaceutical companies for the application of its drug delivery systems.  Our corporate offices are located in Ewing, New Jersey.


We operate as a product development/drug delivery company in the broader pharmaceutical industry.  Companies in this sector generally bring technology and know-how in the area of drug formulation and/or delivery to pharmaceutical product marketers through licensing and development agreements

15

Index

while actively pursuing development of their own products.  We currently view pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies as our primary customers.  We have negotiated and executed licensing relationships in the growth hormone segment (reusable needle-free devices in the U.S., Europe and Asia) and the transdermal gels segment (several development programs in place worldwide, including the U.S.

16

and Europe).  In addition, we continue to support existing customers of our reusable needle-free devices for the home or alternate site administration of insulin in the U.S. market through distributors and have licensed both disposable auto and pen injection devices to Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd. (“Teva”) for use in undisclosed fields and territories.  On June 29, 2009, we announced with Teva that Teva received approval of a Supplemental New Drug Application which added “needle-free injection” to its Tev-Tropin® brand human growth hormone drug label.  Teva will market our needle-free device as the Tev-Tropin Tjet Injector system.


In the third quarter of 2009, we raised gross proceeds of $11,500,000 through the sale of shares of our common stock and warrants.  We used approximately $3,000,000 of these proceeds to pay off the remaining balance of our credit facility.  We also received a payment of $4,076,375 from Teva for tooling in process that had a carrying value of approximately $1,200,000 and for an advance for the design, development and purchase of additional tooling and automation equipment, all of which is related to an undisclosed, fixed, single-dose, disposable injector product using the Company’s Vibex™ autoinjector platform.

We incurred a net loss of $4,990,318$7,884,152 for the six-monthnine month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 and we expect to report a net loss for the year ending December 31, 2009.  We have not historically generated sufficient revenue to provide the cash needed to support our operations, and we have continued to operate primarily by raising capital and incurring debt.  Capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the status of collaborative arrangements and payments received under such arrangements, the progress of research and development programs, the receipt of revenues from sales of products and royalties and the ability to control costs.


Results of Operations


Critical Accounting Policies


We have identified certain of our significant accounting policies that we consider particularly important to the portrayal of our results of operations and financial position and which may require the application of a higher level of judgment by management and, as a result, are subject to an inherent level of uncertainty.  These policies are characterized as “critical accounting policies” and address revenue recognition, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill and accounting for debt and equity instruments, as more fully described under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  WeOther than with respect to the revenue recognition critical accounting policy described below, we have made no changes to these policies during the six-monthnine month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009.


Revenue Recognition

In the third quarter of 2009, we elected early adoption of FASB ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.”  ASU 2009-13, which amended FASB ASC 605-25, “Multiple-Element Arrangements,” is effective for arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, but allows for early adoption.  ASU 2009-13 requires a vendor to allocate revenue to each unit of accounting in arrangements involving multiple deliverables based on the relative selling price of each deliverable.  It also changes the level of evidence of standalone selling price required to separate deliverables by allowing a vendor to make its best estimate of the standalone selling price of deliverables when more objective evidence of selling price is not available.  As discussed further in Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements, adoption of this accounting pronouncement resulted in the recognition of revenue previously deferred of $434,111 and recognition of costs previously
17

deferred of $536,732.  As a result of adoption of ASU 2009-13, deferred revenues and deferred costs associated with one of our License, Development and Supply Agreements with Teva will be recognized as revenues and expenses earlier than would otherwise have occurred.  We also expect revenues and expenses generated in connection with future multiple element arrangements will often be recognized over shorter periods than would have occurred prior to adoption of ASU 2009-13.

Three and SixNine Months Ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 and 2008


Revenues


Total revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 were $1,661,844$2,041,172 and $3,688,247,$5,729,419, respectively, compared to revenues for the same prior-year periods of $1,390,115$1,388,582 and $2,504,493. $3,893,075, respectively.

Product revenue increased to $1,168,620was $923,155 and $1,992,371$2,915,526 in the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 compared to $945,017$995,710 and $1,683,386$2,679,096 in the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008.  The increases were primarilydecrease in the quarter was mainly due to initiala decrease in sales of needle-free injection devices and disposable componentsto Ferring, which was partially offset by sales to Teva in anticipation ofconnection with Teva’s launch of our Tjet needle-free device with their human growth hormonehGH Tev-Tropin®.  In the year-to-date period the sales to Teva more than offset the decrease in sales to Ferring, resulting in an increase in product sales in 2009 compared to 2008 (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements).  We believe Ferring sales fluctuations from quarter to quarter and the decrease from the prior year are driven mainly by Ferring inventory management practices and we expect product sales to Ferring to normalize in the first quarter of 2010.

Development revenue also increased in the three and sixnine month periods ended September 30, 2009 to $299,674$382,788 and $979,844 in 2009$1,362,632 compared to $106,101$99,730 and $210,098$309,828 in the same periods of the prior year.  Licensing revenue increased in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 to $658,276 and $1,166,362 from $173,451 and $621,745 in the same periods of the prior year.  In the third quarter of 2009, $111,111 of development revenue and $323,000 of licensing revenue recognized had been previously deferred and represents a portion of payments received from Teva under a License, Development and Supply Agreement for a product utilizing our autoinjector technology.  This revenue was recognized as a result of adopting a new revenue recognition accounting standard, as described in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements.  The increases weredevelopment revenue in 2009 related primarily due to transdermal gel development work for Population Council and autoinjector development work for Teva.  The development revenue in 2008 was generated from projects related to our transdermal gel, and auto injector technologies. Licensing revenue decreased in the three month period to $82,379 in 2009 from $225,321 in 2008. The decrease was due primarily to the termination of a license agreement related to our oral disintegrating tablet technologyand autoinjector technologies.  The licensing revenue increase in the first quarter of 2009 under which revenue was being recognized in 2008.

Licensing revenue increased in the six month period to $508,086 in 2009 from $448,294 in 2008 primarily due to recognitionthe revenue recognized after adoption of the new accounting standard and to a milestone payment received from Teva in connection with Teva’s launch of our Tjet needle-free device with their hGH Tev-Tropin®.  The licensing revenue for the first quarter ofnine month periods ended September 30, 2009 of approximately $338,000 ofand 2008 included revenue recognized in connection with a previously deferred license fee related to our oral disintegrating tablet technologytechnology.  In the first quarter of 2009, approximately $338,000 of this previously deferred license fee was recognized after the customer terminated the agreement due to technical challenges with their drug molecule.

Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales was 45%55% and 54%57% in three monththree-month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and was 49%51% and 55%56% for the sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales was lower in 2009 than in 2008 mainly as a result of higher average selling prices in 2009 as compared to 2008.  In addition, the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 periods included a write-down of inventory of approximately $55,000.


The cost of development revenue consists of labor costs, direct external costs and an allocation of certain overhead expenses based on actual costs and time spent in revenue-generating activities. CostIn the third quarter of 2009, we recognized $536,732 of previously deferred development costs related to a License, Development and Supply Agreement with Teva for a product utilizing our autoinjector technology.  These costs were recognized after adoption of the new revenue recognition accounting standard, as described in Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements.  Development costs that were being deferred in connection with the Teva agreement were related to both licensing and development revenue that had been deferred.  Excluding the development costs and revenue recognized in the third quarter related to the accounting change, cost of development revenue as a percentage of development revenue was 32%61% and 20%32% for the secondthird quarters of 2009 and 2008, respectively, and was 37%40% and 28%29% for the six-monthnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 and 2008.2008, respectively.  The increases in each period were due mainly to development projects in 2009 that have a higher rate of direct external costs than the development projects in 2008 and to an increase in the overhead allocation rate used in 2009 compared to the rate used in 2008.


Research and Development


The majority of research and development expenses consist of external costs for studies and analysis activities, design work and prototype development.  While we are typically engaged in research and development activities involving each of our drug delivery platforms, overOver 75% of our total research and development expenses in each period were generated in connection with projects related to transdermal gel products, primarily AnturolTMthe Phase III study of Anturol®.  The balance of our research and development expenses are related primarily to development of our disposable Vibex™ autoinjector platform.  Research and development expenses were $1,745,309$2,004,921 and $3,952,068$5,956,989 in the three and six-monthnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009, respectively, compared to $1,791,214$2,153,267 and $3,757,486$5,910,753 in the same periods of the prior year. The increase in the first half of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008 was due primarily to the Phase III study of AnturolTM.


Sales, Marketing and Business Development


Sales, marketing and business development expenses totaled $216,863$173,797 and $552,380$726,177 for the three and six-monthnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009, respectively, compared to $574,566$347,326 and $1,005,230$1,352,556 in the same periods of the prior year periods.year.  The decreases in each period were primarily due to reductions in payroll costs associated with headcount reductions and decreases in consulting fees.

The increases were due primarily to decreases in interest income of $137,507$94,162 in the three-month period and $364,307$458,469 in the six-monthnine month period due to both a reduction in funds available for investment and a reduction in market interest rates received on invested funds.  The impactIn the third quarter of the decreases in interest income was partially offset by decreases in2009 a total of $129,907 of interest expense was recognized in connection with the retirement of $104,234our credit facility.  Excluding the interest related to the retirement of our credit facility, interest expense decreased $99,005 and $297,274 in the three-month periodthree and $198,269 innine month periods ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the six-month periodthree and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 due primarily due to a lower notes payablecredit facility principal balance.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


We have not historically generated, and do not currently generate, sufficient revenue to provide the cash needed to support our operations and we have continued to operate primarily by raising capital and incurring debt.

In the first halfthird quarter of 2009, we received net proceeds of $53,667 in connection with exercises of warrants and options to purchase shares$10,527,650 through the sale of our common stock which resulted in the issuance of 85,333 shares of our common stock. In 2008, we received proceeds of $1,319,950 in connection with exercises ofand warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, which resulted in the issuance of 2,400,000 shares of our common stock.

In 2007, we borrowed $7,500,000 under a note payable in two tranches of $5,000,000 and $2,500,000. The total remaining principal balance was $3,736,618 at June 30, 2009. The per annum interest rate under the note payable is 12.7% for the first tranche and 11% for the second tranche. The maturity dates under the note payable are (i) 42 months from the first funding date for the first tranche, and (ii) 36 months from the second funding date for the second tranche. We have scheduled debt payments of $2,930,671 and $805,947 for the 12 month periods ending June 30, 2010 and 2011. The amount payable under the note is secured by all of our personal property, including all intellectual property. The credit agreement governing the note payable contains certain covenants and provisions, including, without limitation, covenants and provisions that:

restrict our ability to create or incur indebtedness (subject to enumerated exceptions);

restrict our ability to create or incur certain liens on our property (subject to enumerated exceptions);

in certain circumstances, require us to maintain, on a consolidated basis, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of at least $2,500,000;

in certain circumstances, restrict our ability to declare or pay any dividends on any shares of our capital stock, purchase or redeem any shares of our capital stock, return any capital to any holder of our equity securities or payment of certain bonuses; and

restrict our ability to make certain investments.

Onseparate transactions.  In July 29, 2009, we closed on a registered direct offering in which we raised gross proceeds of $8,500,000 through the sale of shares of our common stock and warrants.  We sold a total of 10,625,000 units, each unit consisting of (i) one share of common stock and (ii) one warrant to purchase 0.4 of a share of common stock (or a total of 4,250,000 shares), at a purchase price of $0.80 per unit. The warrants will be exercisable six months after issuance at $1.00 per share and will expire 5five years from the date of issuance.

Index In September 2009, we raised gross proceeds of $3,000,000 through the sale of 2,727,273 units to certain institutional investors, each unit consisting of (i) one share of common stock and (ii) one warrant to purchase 0.4 of a share of common stock (or a total of 1,090,909 shares), at a purchase price of $1.10 per unit. The warrants will be exercisable six months after issuance at $1.15 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance.


In JulySeptember 2009, we used proceeds from the second sale of common stock to pay off the remaining principal balance of our credit facility, making a final payment of $2,932,907.


In the third quarter of 2009, the Companywe received a payment from Teva in the amount of approximately $4,000,000$4,076,375 in connection with an amendment to a License, Development and Supply Agreement signed in July 2006.  Teva purchased tooling in process from the Company that had a carrying value of approximately $1,200,000 and paid the Company in advance for the design, development and purchase of additional tooling and automation equipment.


In addition, in the first nine months of 2009 we received proceeds of $95,322 in connection with exercises of warrants and options to purchase shares of our common stock, which resulted in the issuance of 137,916 shares of our common stock.  In 2008, we received proceeds of $1,319,950 in connection with exercises of warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, which resulted in the issuance of 2,400,000 shares of our common stock.

We believe that the recent equity financing,financings, the recent payment from Teva and projected product sales, product development, license revenues, milestone payments and royalties will provide sufficient funds to support operations for at least the next 12 months.  We do not currently have any bank credit lines.  In the

future, if we need additional financing and are unable to obtain such financing when needed, or obtain it on favorable terms, we may be required to curtail development of new products, limit expansion of operations or accept financing terms that are not as attractive as we may desire.

AnturolTMAnturol®.  We are currently evaluating AnturolTMAnturol® for the treatment of overactive bladder (“OAB”).  In the fourth quarter of 2007 we initiated a Phase III pivotal trial designed toevaluateto evaluate the efficacy of AnturolTM

21

Anturol® when administered topically once daily for 12 weeks in patients predominantly with urge incontinence episodes. The randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial is expected to involve 600 patients (200 per arm) using two dose strengths (selected from the Phase II clinical trial) versus a placebo. Enrollment expanded to approximately sixty centers throughout the United States in 2009.  In addition to the Phase III trial, we have incurred significant costs related to AnturolTMAnturol® manufacturing development.  We have contracted with Patheon, Inc. (“Patheon”), a manufacturing development company, to supply clinical quantities of Anturol™Anturol® and to develop a commercial manufacturing process for AnturolTMAnturol®.  With Patheon, we have completed limited commercial scale up activities associated with AnturolTMAnturol® manufacturing.  As of JuneSeptember 30, 2009, we have incurred total external costs of approximately $10,400,000$11,700,000 in connection with our AnturolTMAnturol® research and development, of which approximately $2,700,000$4,000,000 was incurred in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009.  We intend to seek a marketing partner to help fund the development of AnturolTMAnturol® and to complete the Phase III trial.  To date, we have not entered into an agreement with a marketing partner.  However, in Julythe third quarter of 2009, we raised gross proceeds of $8,500,000 in a registered direct offering$11,500,000 through the sale of shares of our common stock and warrants.  Because of the additional funding received, we will continue the AnturolTMAnturol® development program and expect total expenses for Anturol® to be approximately $5,000,000 in 2009.  Although the Phase III program for AnturolTMAnturol® will continue, the rate of progress of the program will be determined by the level of expenditures, which may be affected by the timing of engaging a marketing partner.  If we cannot find a marketing partner, we may not have the resources to complete the development program and may have to delay or stop enrollment in the trial.


Device Development Projects.  We are engaged in research and development activities related to our Vibex™ disposable pressure assisted auto injectorspressure-assisted autoinjectors and our disposable pen injectors.  We have signed license agreements with Teva for our VibexTM system for two undisclosed products and for our pen injector device for two undisclosed products.  Our pressure assisted auto injectorspressure-assisted autoinjectors are designed to deliver drugs by injection from single dosesingle-dose prefilled syringes.  The auto injectorsautoinjectors are in the advanced commercial stage of development.  The disposable pen injector device is designed to deliver drugs by injection through needles from multi-dose cartridges.  The disposable pen is in the early stage of development where devices are being evaluated in clinical studies.  Our development programs consist of determination of the device design, development of prototype tooling, production of prototype devices for testing and clinical studies, performance of clinical studies, and development of commercial tooling and assembly.  As of JuneSeptember 30, 2009, we have incurred total external costs of approximately $2,400,000$4,100,000 in connection with research and development activities associated with our auto and pen injectors, of which approximately $140,000$700,000 was incurred in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009.  As of JuneSeptember 30, 2009, $1,300,000approximately $3,000,000 of the total costs haveof $4,100,000 had been deferred, of which approximately $700,000 has been recognized as expense and $2,300,000 remains deferred.  This remaining deferred balance will be recognized as an expense over the same period as the related deferred revenue will be recognized.  The development timelines of the auto and pen injectors related to the Teva products are controlled by Teva.  We expect development related to the Teva products to continue in 2009, but the timing and extent of near-term future development will be dependent on certain decisions made by Teva.  We recently received a payment from Teva in the amount of approximately $4,000,000$4,076,375 in connection with an amendment to a License, Development and Supply Agreement signed in July 2006 related to an undisclosed, fixed, single-dose, disposable injector product using our Vibex™ autoinjector platform. Although this payment and certain upfront and milestone payments have been received from Teva, there have been no commercial sales, timelines have been extended and there can be no assurance that there ever will be commercial sales or future milestone payments under these agreements.

Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R (revised 2007),ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (“(formerly SFAS 141R”)141R).  SFAS 141RThis establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired in the business combination.  SFAS 141RASC 805 also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination.  Our adoptionAdoption of SFAS 141RASC 805 will apply prospectively to any business combinations completed after January 1, 2009.

Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted the required provisions of FASB Staff Position No. FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This guidance will be applied prospectively to our intangible assets acquired on or after January 1, 2009. The adoption of FSP 142-3 had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.


Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” that were issued with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 07-1, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (“EITF 07-1”). EITF 07-1 provides guidance on how to determine whether an arrangement constitutes a collaborative arrangement, how costs incurred and revenue generated on sales to third parties should be reported by the participants in a collaborative arrangement, how payments made between participants in a collaborative arrangement should be characterized, and what participants should disclose in the notes to the financial statements about a collaborative arrangement. The adoption of EITF 07-1 had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock.”  EITF 07-5This provides that an entity should use a two step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument's contingent exercise and settlement provisions.  EITF 07-5 was effective as of January 1, 2009.  The adoption of EITF 07-5this pronouncement did not have a materialan impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Staff Position No. FAS 107-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“FSP 107-1”). FSP 107-1 expands the fair value disclosures required for all financial instruments within the scope of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 to include interim periods. We adopted the provisions of FSP 107-1 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption of FSP 107-1 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 165,ASC 855, “Subsequent Events” (“FAS 165”)(formerly SFAS 165), which establishes general standards of accounting for, and requires disclosure of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. We adopted the provisions of FAS 165ASC 855 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption of FAS 165ASC 855 did not have a materialan impact on our consolidated financial statements.


In Junethe third quarter of 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — A Replacementwe elected early adoption of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS 168”). SFAS 168 establishes the “FASB Accounting Standard Codification™ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.”  (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by theASU 2009-13, which amended FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. On the effective date of SFAS 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Item 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Our primary market risk exposure is foreign exchange rate fluctuations of the Swiss Franc to the U.S. dollar as the financial position and operating results of our subsidiaries in Switzerland are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation.  Our exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations also arises from transferring funds to our Swiss subsidiaries in Swiss Francs.  In addition, we have exposure to exchange rate fluctuations between the Euro and the U.S. dollar in connection with the licensing agreement entered into in January 2003 with Ferring, which established pricing in Euros for products sold under the supply agreement and for all royalties.  In March 2007, we amended our 2003 agreement with Ferring, to establish prices in U.S. dollars rather than Euros for certain products and effectively reducing our exchange rate risk.  Most of our sales and licensing fees are denominated in U.S. dollars, thereby significantly mitigating the risk of exchange rate fluctuations on trade receivables. We do not currently use derivative financial instruments to hedge against exchange rate risk.  Because exposure increases as intercompany balances grow, we will continue to evaluate the need to initiate hedging programs to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on intercompany balances.  The effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our financial results for the sixnine month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2009 was not material.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report have been designed and are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance
24

with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
