Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Nature of Operations


Description of the Business

The Company

Humanigen, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on March 15, 2000 in California and reincorporated as a Delaware corporation in September 2001 under the name KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The Company completed its initial public offering in January 2013. Effective August 7, 2017, the Company changed its legal name to Humanigen, Inc.


The Company has undergone a significant transformation since December 2015.

As a result of challenges facing it at the time, on December 29, 2015, the Company filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On June 30, 2016,disclosed in the Company’s Second Amended Plan of Reorganization, dated May 9, 2016, as amended (the ��Plan”), became effective and the Company emerged from its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. Refer to Note 2 for additional details regarding the Company’s bankruptcy proceedings.


From the time of its emergence from bankruptcy to2017 Form 10-K, since August 29, 2017 the Company’s focus was on its lead product candidate benznidazole for the treatment of Chagas disease, a parasitic illness that can lead to long-term heart, intestinal and neurological problems. As more fully described in Note 10, the Company acquired certain worldwide rights to benznidazole on June 30, 2016 and, until August 29, 2017, was primarily focused on the development necessary to seek and obtain approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for benznidazole and the subsequent commercialization, if approved. According to FDA issued guidance, benznidazole is eligible for review pursuant to a 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway as a potential treatment for Chagas disease and, if it became the first FDA-approved treatment for Chagas disease, the Company would have been eligible to receive a Priority Review Voucher (“PRV”).

However, on August 29, 2017, the FDA announced it had granted accelerated and conditional approval of a benznidazole therapy manufactured by Chemo Research, S.L. (“Chemo”) for the treatment of Chagas disease and had awarded that manufacturer a neglected tropical disease PRV. Chemo’s benznidazole also has received Orphan Drug designation.  As a result of FDA’s actions and with the information currently available, the Company no longer expects to be eligible to receive a PRV with its own benznidazole candidate for the treatment of Chagas disease.  Accordingly, the Company has ceased development of benznidazole and is currently assessing a full range of options with respect to its benznidazole assets and development program.

Since the FDA’s August 29, 2017 announcement, the Company has shifted its primary focus toward developing its proprietary monoclonal antibody portfolio, which comprises lenzilumab, (formerly known as KB003)ifabotuzumab and ifabotuzumab (formerly known as KB004),HGEN005, for use in addressing significant, serious and potentially life-threatening unmet needs in oncology. Both of theseoncology and immunology. These product candidates are in the early stageat various stages of development and will require substantial time, expenses, clinical development, testing, and regulatory approval prior to commercialization.commercialization, if they are approved at all. Furthermore, neithernone of these product candidates has advanced into a pivotal registration study and it may be years before any such a study isstudies are initiated, if at all.

Lenzilumab is currently being developeda recombinant monoclonal antibody, or mAb, that neutralizes soluble granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, or GM-CSF, a critical cytokine in the inflammatory cascade associated with serious and potentially life-threatening CAR-T-related side effects and in the growth of certain hematologic malignancies, solid tumors and other serious conditions.The Company expects to study lenzilumab’s potential to reduce the side effects associated with CAR-T therapy and potentially improve efficacy. Pre-clinical work has been completed to explore lenzilumab’s effectiveness in preventing or ameliorating neurotoxicity and cytokine release syndrome (“CRS”) associated with CAR-T therapy. Pre-clinical animal data shows that there may be an increase in CAR-T cell expansion when CAR-T is combined with lenzilumab, which potentially could translate into improved CAR-T efficacy. This is likely to be an area of further study. In addition, the Company has completed enrollment of patients in a Phase 1 clinical trial for the treatment of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (“CMML”), a rare hematologic cancer with high unmet medical need. The Company has enrolled a totalto identify the maximum tolerated dose, (“MTD”), or recommended Phase 2 dose (“RPTD”) of ninelenzilumab and to assess lenzilumab’s safety, pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity. Fifteen patients in the 200, 400 and 600 mg dose cohorts in itsof the CMML trial have been enrolled, and the Company is currently evaluating subjects in the highest dose cohort of 600 mg for continuing accrual.accrual of up to 18 patients. The Company also plans to review preliminary safety and potential efficacy results and anticipates completionmay use interim data from the lenzilumab CMML Phase 1 study to determine the feasibility of the ad hoc interim analysiscommencing a Phase 1 study in the first half of 2018. Additionally, the Company is exploring lenzilumab’s potential to neutralize circulating Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) which could lead to developing it as a possible treatment for a range of conditions including juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (“JMML”) and the toxicities and adverse eventspatients, or to explore a Phase 2 CMML study. JMML is a rare pediatric cancer, is associated with chimeric antigenpoor outcomes and a very high unmet medical need, for which there are no Unites States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) -approved therapies.

Ifabotuzumab is an anti-Eph Type-A receptor T-cell (“CAR-T”) therapy.


Ifabotuzumab development3, or EphA3, mAb that has begun with an Investigator-Sponsoredthe potential to offer a novel approach to treating solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, serious pulmonary conditions and as a CAR construct. EphA3 is aberrantly expressed on the surface of tumor cells and stroma cells in certain cancers. The Company completed the Phase 1 dose escalation portion of a Phase 1/2 clinical trial for ifabotuzumab in multiple hematologic malignancies for which the preliminary results were published in the journalLeukemia Research in 2016. An investigator-sponsored Phase 0/1 radiolabeledradio-labeled imaging trial of ifabotuzumab in glioblastoma multiforme, (“GBM”), a particularly aggressive and deadly form of brain cancer.cancer, has begun at the Olivia-Newton John Cancer Institute in Melbourne, Australia.   The trial has enrolled 4 patients to date, with more expected. The Company is exploringalso in discussions with a leading center in the U.S. to develop a series of CAR constructs based on ifabotuzumab and may take these constructs, if developed, into pre-clinical testing for a range of cancer types. The Company is continuing to explore partnering opportunities to enable further development of ifabotuzumab,ifabotuzumab.

HGEN005 is a pre-clinical stage anti-human epidermal growth factor-like module containing mucin-like hormone receptor 1, or EMR1, mAb. EMR1 is a therapeutic target for eosinophilic disorders. Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell. If too many are produced in the treatmentbody, chronic inflammation and tissue and organ damage may result. Analysis of certain rare solidblood and hematologic cancers.

bone marrow shows that surface expression of EMR1 is restricted to mature eosinophils and correlated with eosinophilia. Tissue eosinophils also express EMR1. In pre-clinical work, the Company has demonstrated that eosinophil killing is enhanced in the presence of HGEN005 and immune effector cells. A major limitation of current eosinophil targeted therapies is incomplete depletion of tissue eosinophils and/or lack of cell selectivity, which may mean that HGEN005 could offer promise in a range of eosinophil-driven diseases, such as eosinophilic asthma, eosinophilic esophagitis and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. The Company is in discussion with a leading center in the U.S. to develop a series of CAR constructs based on HGEN005 and may take these constructs, if developed, into pre-clinical testing for eosinophilic leukemia, an orphan condition with significant unmet need.

The Company’s monoclonal antibody portfolio was developed with its proprietary, patent-protected Humaneered® technology, which consists of methods for converting antibodies (typically murine) into engineered, high-affinity antibodies designed for human therapeutic use.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company has incurred significant losses since its inception in March 2000 and had an accumulated deficit of $259.5$270.4 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017. The2018.At June 30, 2018, the Company has financed its operations primarily throughhad a working capital deficit of $7.1 million.  On February 27, 2018, the saleCompany issued 91,815,517 shares of equity securities, debt financings,common stock in exchange for the extinguishment of all term loans, related fees and accrued interest income earned onand received $1.5 million in cash proceeds.  See Note 8 for a more detailed discussion of these restructuring transactions. On March 12, 2018 the Company issued 2,445,557 shares of common stock for proceeds of $1.1 million to accredited investors. On June 4, 2018, the Company issued 400,000 shares of common stock for proceeds of $0.2 million to an accredited investor. On June 29, 2018 the Company received aggregate proceeds of $0.4 million from advances made to the Company (the “Advance Notes”) by Dr. Cameron Durrant, the Company’s Chairman and cash equivalents, grantsChief Executive Officer; Cheval Holdings, Ltd., an affiliate of Black Horse Capital, L.P., the Company’s controlling stockholder; and Ronald Barliant, a director of the payments received under its agreements with Novartis Pharma AG and Sanofi Pasteur S.A. (“Sanofi”).Company. See Note 6 for further description of the Advance Notes. To date, none of the Company’s product candidates havehas been approved for sale and therefore the Company has not generated any revenue from product sales. Management expects operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future. The Company will require additional financing in order to meet its anticipated cash flow needs during the next twelve months. As a result, the Company will continue to require additional capital through equity offerings, debt financing and/or payments under new or existing licensing or collaboration agreements. If sufficient funds are not available on acceptable terms when needed, the Company could be required to significantly reduce its operating expenses and delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of its development programs. The Company’s ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if not achieved on a timely basis, could materially harm its business, financial condition and results of operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See Note 12 – “Subsequent Events.”

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172018 were prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to meet its total liabilities of $24.1$8.1 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20172018 and to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the availability of future funding. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  See Note 12 – “Subsequent Events.”


Review of Strategic Alternatives
The Company is currently evaluating a full range of strategic alternatives to address or respond to the Company’s lack of liquidity in order to repay its outstanding term loans (See Note 7 – “Debt and Equity Financing”) and other obligations.  The Company has been discussing and continues to discuss with its Term Loan Lenders alternative transactions that might result in the satisfaction, extension or modification of the Company’s obligations including conversion of the Term Loans into equity in the Company, which may occur at a significant discount to the current market price and be dilutive to the ownership interests of existing stockholders. If the Company is able to successfully reach agreement with its Term Loan Lenders and is also able to obtain additional financing, the review of strategic alternatives could result in among other things, pursuit of a litigation strategy relating to its benznidazole intellectual property rights, a sale, merger, consolidation or business combination, asset divestiture, partnering, licensing or other collaboration agreements, or potential acquisitions or recapitalizations, in one or more transactions, or continuing to operate with the Company’s current business plan and strategy. The Company may incur substantial expenses associated with identifying, evaluating and pursuing potential strategic alternatives, and there can be no assurances as to whether any of these may be successfully implemented. If the Company is unable to reach a satisfactory agreement with its Term Loan Lenders on any alternative transactions, the Company may be forced to file for a second bankruptcy. See Note 12 – “Subsequent Events.”


Delisting of Common Stock

On January 13, 2016, the Company’s common stock was suspended from the Nasdaq Global Market and began trading on the over-the-counter market under the KBIOQ symbol.  On January 26, 2016, NASDAQ filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to complete the delisting of the common stock, and the delisting was effective on February 5, 2016.  On June 30, 2016, upon emergence from bankruptcy, the ticker symbol for the trading of the Company’s common stock on the over-the-counter market reverted back to KBIO.  On June 26, 2017 the Company’s common stock began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the same ticker symbol. On August 7, 2017, following the effectiveness of our previously reported name change, the Company’s common stock began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the new ticker symbol “HGEN”.

10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company believes judgment is involved in determining the valuation of the financing derivative, the fair value-based measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals and warrant valuations. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Chapter 11 Filing

On December 29, 2015, the Company filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The filing was made in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Case No. 15-12628 (LSS) (the “Bankruptcy Case”).


In connection with financing efforts related to the Company’s bankruptcy proceedings, on April 1, 2016, the Company entered into a Debtor-in-Possession Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders (the “DIP Lenders”), pursuant to which the Company received $3 million in funds for working capital, bankruptcy-related costs, costs related to its plan of reorganization, payment of certain fees to the DIP Lenders and other costs associated with the ordinary course of business.

On April 1, 2016, the Company also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with the DIP Lenders. The SPA provided for the sale of the Company’s common stock, with share amounts subject to calculation as provided in the SPA, in respect of exit financing in the amount of $11,000,000 to be received upon the Effective Date of the Plan, as defined below.

Bankruptcy Claims Administration


On February 29, 2016, the Company filed its schedules of assets and liabilities and statement of financial affairs (the “Schedules”) with the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court entered an order setting April 1, 2016 as the deadline for filing proofs of claim for creditors other than governmental units and June 27, 2016 as the bar date for filing proofs of claim by governmental units (together, the “Bar Date”). The Bar Date is the date by which proofs of claims against the Company relating to the period prior to the commencement of the Company's Chapter 11 case were required to be filed if such claims were not listed in liquidated, non-contingent and undisputed amounts in the Schedules, or if the claimant disagrees with the amount, characterization or classification of its claim as reflected in the Schedules. Claims that are subject to the Bar Date and that were not filed on or prior to the Bar Date are barred from participating in any distribution that may be made under the Plan.

As of the Effective Date, approximately 195 proofs of claim were outstanding (including claims that were previously identified on the Schedules) totaling approximately $32 million. Prior to the Bar Date, certain investors filed a class action claim in the amount of $20 million in connection with events surrounding the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. On June 15, 2016, a settlement stipulation related to the class action suit was approved under order of the Bankruptcy Court. The settlement stipulation required the Company to issue 300,000 shares of common stock and submit a payment of $250,000 to the claimants. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the 300,000 shares were issued and the $250,000 payment was made. See Note 11 for additional information on this matter and settlement.

Separately, a claim was filed by certain investors in the Company’s 2015 private financing transaction totaling approximately $6.9 million. On May 9, 2016, a settlement stipulation related to this suit was approved under order of the Bankruptcy Court. The settlement stipulation required the Company to issue 327,608 shares of common stock and submit a payment of $250,000 to an escrow account on behalf of the claimants. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the 327,608 shares were issued and the $250,000 payment was made. See Note 11 for additional information on this matter and settlement.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company emerged from bankruptcy. The Company expects the amounts remaining in Liabilities subject to compromise as of the Effective Date to be paid in accordance with the Plan. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2017, Liabilities subject to compromise have been reduced to zero and reclassified according to their payment terms.

In March 2016, the Company entered into a termination agreement (the “Lease Termination Agreement”) related to the lease of its prior facility in South San Francisco, California. The Lease Termination Agreement, approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court issued March 15, 2016, waived all damages related to early termination of the lease, relieved the Company of March rental expenses and set an effective termination date of March 31, 2016. In accordance with the termination of the lease, the Company wrote off remaining deferred rent liabilities of approximately $312,000 and disposed of certain leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures with a net book value of approximately $85,000. The resulting gain of approximately $227,000 is included in Reorganization items, net, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Concurrent with the termination of its prior lease, the Company entered into a lease agreement for a new office facility in Brisbane, California. The new lease commenced in April 2016 and was to expire in March 2017. On February 16, 2017, the Company amended the lease to extend the term of the lease for an additional period of eighteen months such that the lease will expire on September 30, 2018.

The reconciliation of certain proofs of claim filed against the Company in the Bankruptcy Case, including certain General Unsecured Claims, Convenience Class Claims and Other Subordinated Claims, is ongoing.substantially complete.  As a result of its examination of the claims, the Company may askhas asked the Bankruptcy Court to disallow, reduce, reclassify, subordinate or otherwise adjudicate certain claims the Company believes are subject to objection or otherwise improper.  Under the terms of the Plan, the Company had until December 27, 2016 to file additional objections to disputed claims, subject to the Company’s right to seek an extension of this deadline from the Bankruptcy Court. ByThe deadline has been extended by the Bankruptcy Court, most recently by Order dated February 6, 2017,July 13, 2018, under which the Bankruptcy Court extended the claims objection deadline through September 24, 2018. On July 11, 2018, the Company filed an objection to June 26, 2017.the remaining claims. By Order dated July 10, 2017,objection, the Company seeks to disallow in their entirety the remaining claims totaling approximately $0.5 million. The Bankruptcy Court extendedhas scheduled a hearing on the claims objection deadline to September 25, 2017. By Order dated October 23, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court extended the claims objection deadline to December 26, 2017.The Company may compromise certain claims with or without specific prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court as set forth in the Plan and may identify additional liabilities that will need to be recorded or reclassified to liabilities subject to compromise.for August 10, 2018. The resolution of such claims could result in material adjustments to the Company’s financial statements.


As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017, approximately $731,000 in claims remained subject to review and reconciliation by the Company. The Company may file objections to these claims after it completes the reconciliation process. As of September 30, 2017,2018, the Company has recorded $28,000 and $31,000$0.06 million related to these claims in Accounts payable and Notes payable to vendors, respectively, which represents management’s best estimate of claims to be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court.

Although the Bankruptcy Case remains open, other than with respect to certain matters relating to the implementation of the Plan, the administration of certain claims, or over which the Bankruptcy Court may have otherwise retained jurisdiction, the Company is no longer operating under the direct supervision of the Bankruptcy Court.  The Company anticipates that the Bankruptcy Case will be closed following the completion of the claims reconciliation process.

On April 1, 2016,  the Company entered into the Credit Agreement with Black Horse Capital Master Fund Ltd., as administrative agentprocess and lender (“BHCMF” or “Agent”), Black Horse Capital LP, as a lender (“BHC”), Cheval Holdings, Ltd., as a lender (“Cheval”) and Nomis Bay LTD, as a lender (“Nomis” and, together with BHCMF, BHC and Cheval, the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement provided for a debtor-in-possession credit facility in the original principal amount of $3,000,000 (the “Term Loan”). The Credit Agreement provided that the Term Loan will be made by the Lenders at an original discount equalseek to $191,000 (the “Upfront Fee”) and required the payment by the Company to the Lenders of a commitment fee equal to $150,000 (the “Commitment Fee”).

On October 28, 2016, the SPA was amended to require the Company to file a registration statement by January 10, 2017 with effectiveness to be no later than March 31, 2017. On December 19, 2016, the SPA was amended again to require the Company to file a registration statement by March 17, 2017 with effectiveness to be no later than June 20, 2017.

It requires that the financial statements for periods subsequent to the Chapter 11 filing distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Revenues, expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses that can be directly associated with the reorganization and restructuring of the business must be reported separately as reorganization items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The balance sheet must distinguish pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise from both those pre-petition liabilities that are not subject to compromise and from post-petition liabilities. Liabilities that may be subject to a plan of reorganization must be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed in the Company’s Chapter 11 case, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts as a result of the plan of reorganization or negotiations with creditors.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies tosince those previously disclosed in the 20162017 Annual Report.


4. Potentially Dilutive Securities


The Company’s potentialpotentially dilutive securities, which include stock options, restricted stock units and warrants, have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share as the effect of including those securities would be to reduce the net loss per common share and be antidilutive. Therefore, the denominator used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per common share is the same in each period presented.

The following outstanding potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computations of diluted net loss per common share:

6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash, accounts payable term loans and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which approximates fair value given their short-term nature. Marketable securities and cash equivalents are carried at fair value.


The Company has money market funds of $71 and $101 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, that are reported as restricted cash on the balance sheet. The amortized cost of these funds equals their fair value as there were no unrealized gains or losses at June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

The fair value of financial instruments reflects the amounts that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, of which the first two are considered observable, and the third is considered unobservable, as follows:


Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


Level 2 — Inputs other than those included in Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.


Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the highest level of inputs that are reasonably available as of the measurement date. The following tables summarize the fair value of financial assets that are measured at fair value and the classification by level of input within the fair value hierarchy:

As required by the MDC Agreement, on the Effective Date, the Company made payments to Savant totaling $2,687,500, consisting of the remaining portion of the Initial Payment less the deposit in the amount of $2,500,000, an initial monthly Joint Development Program Cost payment of $87,500, and reimbursement of Savant’s legal fees capped at $100,000. The MDC Agreement provides for milestone payments, including payments related to U.S. and foreign regulatory submissions of up to $21 million and certain other contingent payments.  Additionally, the Company will pay Savant royalties in the mid-teens on net sales of any benznidazole product on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, which royalty will be reduced to the high single digits in the United States if a priority review voucher is not granted subsequent to regulatory approval of any benznidazole product.  The MDC Agreement also provides that Savant is entitled to a portion of the amount the Company receives upon the sale, if any, of a PRV relating to the Compound.

In addition, on the Effective Date the Company and Savant also entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company granted Savant a continuing senior security interest in the assets and rights acquired by the Company pursuant to the MDC Agreement and certain future assets developed from those acquired assets.

On the Effective Date, the Company issued to Savant a five year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $2.25 per share, subject to adjustment. The Warrant is exercisable for 25% of the shares immediately and exercisable for the remaining shares upon reaching certain regulatory related milestones. In addition, pursuant toAs of June 30, 2018 the MDC Agreement, the Company has granted Savant certain “piggyback” registration rightsnumber of shares for the shares issuable under the Warrant.

The Company determined the fair value ofwhich the Warrant to be approximately $670,000. During the courseis currently exercisable totals 100,000 shares at an exercise price of 2016, the Company reevaluated the performance conditions and expected vesting of the Warrant at the end of each quarter and recorded expense of approximately $361,000 during the year ended December 31, 2016 in Research and development expenses.
$2.25 per share.

The Company reevaluated the performance conditions and expected vesting of the Warrant as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and recorded a reduction in expense of approximately $59,000$0.01 and $0.04 million during the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, and a reduction of expense of approximately $97,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017respectively, due to a decline in the fair value, which reduction is included in Research and development expensesexpense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Specifically, asAs a result of the FDA granting accelerated and conditional approval of a benznidazole therapy manufactured by Chemoa competitor for the treatment of Chagas disease and awarding Chemosuch competitor a neglected tropical disease PRV in August 2017, the Company re-evaluated the final two vesting milestones and concluded that the probability of achievement of these milestones had decreased to 0%.The Company will continue to reevaluate the performance conditions and expected vesting of the Warrant on a quarterly basis until all performance conditions have been met.

.

Before a compound receives regulatory approval, the Company records upfront and milestone payments made to third parties under licensing arrangements as expense. Upfront payments are recorded when incurred and milestone payments are recorded when the specific milestone has been achieved.

The Company determined that the acquisition of the Compound should be treated as a purchase of in-process research and development. Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded $3,250,000, which includes an additional $250,000 payment made in 2015 to Savant, as a Research and development expense. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded $262,500 in connection with the Joint Development Program and recorded $100,000 in legal fee reimbursement as a Research and development expense.

On May 26, 2017, the Company submitted its benznidazole IND to FDA which became effective on June 26, 2017. The Company recorded expense of $1,000,000$1.0 million during the three monthsyear ended June 30,December 31, 2017 as a Research and development expense related to the milestone achievement associated with the IND being declared effective.

On July 10, 2017 FDA notified the Company that it granted Orphan Drug Designation to benznidazole for the treatment of Chagas disease. The Company recorded an expense of $1,000,000$1.0 million during the three monthsyear ended September 30,December 31, 2017 as a Research and development expense related to the milestone achievement associated with Orphan Drug Designation.

In July 2017, the Company commenced litigation against Savant alleging that Savant breached the MDC Agreement and seeking a declaratory judgement. Savant has asserted counterclaims for breaches of contract under the MDC Agreement and the Security Agreement. The dispute primarily concerns the Company’s right under the MDC Agreement to offset certain costs incurred by the Company in excess of the agreed upon budget against payments due Savant. See Note 10, below, for more information regarding the Savant litigation. The aggregate cost overages as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017 that the Company asserts are Savant’s responsibility total approximately $3.4 million, net of a $500,000$0.5 million deductible. The Company asserts that it is entitled to offset $2$2.0 million in milestone payments due Savant against the cost overages, such that as of June 30, 2017, Savant owed the Company approximately $1.4 million. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2018, the cost overages totaled $4.1 million such that Savant owed the Company approximately $2.1 million in cost overages. Such cost overages have been charged to Research and development expense as incurred. Recovery of such cost overages, if any, will be recorded as a reduction of Research and development expense in the period received. See Part II, Item 1

The $2.0 million in milestone payments due Savant are included in Accrued expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of this Form 10-Q for more information about this pending matter.June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017

10. Litigation


Bankruptcy Proceeding


The Company filed for protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on December 29, 2015. See Note 2 for additional information related to the bankruptcy.


Securities Class Action

Savant Litigation


On December 18, 2015,July 10, 2017, the Company filed a putative class action lawsuit (captioned Li v. complaint against Savant Neglected Diseases, LLC (“Savant”) in the Superior Court for the State of Delaware, New Castle County (the “Delaware Court”).KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al.v. Savant Neglected Diseases, LLC, 5:15-cv-05841-EJD)No. N17C-07-068 PRW-CCLD. The Company asserted breach of contract and declaratory judgment claims against Savant arising under the MDC Agreement. See Note 9 - “Savant Arrangements” for more information about the MDC Agreement. The Company alleges that Savant has breached its MDC Agreement obligations to pay cost overages that exceed a budgetary threshold as well as other related MDC Agreement representations and obligations. In the litigation, the Company has alleged that as of June 30, 2017, Savant was filedresponsible for aggregate cost overages of approximately $3.4 million, net of a $0.5 million deductible under the MDC. The Company asserts that it is entitled to offset $2.0 million in milestone payments due Savant against the cost overages, such that as of June 30, 2017 Savant owed the Company approximately $1.4 million.

On July 12, 2017, Savant removed the case to the Bankruptcy Court, claiming that the action is related to or arises under the Bankruptcy Case from which we emerged in July 2016. On July 27, 2017, Savant filed an Answer and Counterclaims. Savant’s filing alleges breaches of contracts under the MDC Agreement and the Security Agreement, claiming that the Company breached its obligations to pay the milestone payments and other related representations and obligations.

On August 1, 2017, the Company moved to remand the case back to the Delaware Court (the “Motion to Remand”).

On August 2, 2017, Savant sent a foreclosure notice to the Company, demanding that it provide the Collateral as defined in the United States DistrictSecurity Agreement for inspection and possession on August 9, 2017, with a public sale to be held on September 1, 2017. The Company moved for a Temporary Restraining Order (the “TRO”) and Preliminary Injunction in the Bankruptcy Court on August 4, 2017. Savant responded on August 7, 2017. On August 7, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Company’s motion for a TRO, entering an order prohibiting Savant from collecting on or selling the Northern District of California (the “Class Action Court”), alleging violationsCollateral, entering our premises, issuing any default notices to us, or attempting to exercise any other remedies under the MDC Agreement or the Security Agreement. The parties have stipulated to continue the provisions of the federal securities laws by the Company, Herb CrossTRO in full force and Martin Shkreli, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  On December 23, 2015, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Class Action Court (captioned Sciabacucchi v. KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al., 3:15-cv-05992-CRB), similarly alleging violationseffect until further order of the federal securities lawsappropriate court.

On January 22, 2018, Savant wrote to the Bankruptcy Court requesting dissolution of the TRO. On January 29, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Motion to Remand and denied Savant’s request to dissolve the TRO, ordering that any request to dissolve the TRO be made to the Delaware Court.

On February 13, 2018 Savant made a letter request to the Delaware Superior Court to dissolve the TRO. Also on February 13, 2018, Humanigen filed its Answer and Affirmative defenses to Savant’s Counterclaims. On February 15, 2018 Humanigen filed a letter opposition to Savant’s request to dissolve the TRO and requesting a status conference. A hearing on Savant’s request to dissolve the TRO was held before the Delaware Superior Court on March 19, 2018. The Delaware Superior Court denied Savant’s request to dissolve the TRO and the TRO remains in effect.

On April 11, 2018, Humanigen advised the Delaware Superior Court that it would meet and confer with Savant regarding a proposed case management order and date for trial. On April 26, 2018 the Delaware Superior Court so-ordered a proposed case management order submitted by the Company and Mr. Shkreli.  On December 31, 2015, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against the CompanySavant.

There have been no further proceedings in the Class Action Court (captioned Isensee v. KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al., Case No. 15-cv-06331-EJD) also alleging violation of the federal securities laws by the Company, a former officer and Mr. Shkreli.  On April 18, 2016, an amended complaint was filed in the Isensee suit, adding Herb Cross and Ronald Martell as defendants. On April 28, 2016, the Class Action Court consolidated these cases (the “Securities Class Action Litigation”) and appointed certain plaintiffs as the lead plaintiffs.  The lead plaintiffs in the Securities Class Action Litigation were seeking damages of $20.0 million on behalf of all the affected members of the class represented in the Securities Class Action Litigation, (the “Securities Class Action Members”).this matter to date.

16 

On June 15, 2016, a settlement stipulation (the “Securities Class Action Settlement”), was approved by the Bankruptcy Court. The Securities Class Action Settlement required the Company to issue 300,000 shares of common stock and submit a payment of $250,000 to the Securities Class Action Members and advance insurance proceeds of $1.25 million to the Securities Class Action Members (collectively, the consideration is the “Securities Class Action Settlement Consideration”).  On January 20, 2017, the Class Action Court preliminarily approved the Securities Class Action Settlement and on June 22, 2017, the Class Action Court issued its final approval order. The Securities Class Action Settlement provides that any Securities Class Action Member is entitled to share in the Securities Class Action Settlement Consideration.  The Securities Class Action Settlement provides for releases and related injunctions to be granted for the benefit of, among others, the Company, Ronald Martell, Herb Cross and all of the Company’s past, present and future directors, officers and employees, excluding Mr. Shkreli. Securities Class Action Members had the option to exclude themselves from the Securities Class Action Settlement and are thereby not bound by the terms of the Securities Class Action Settlement nor entitled to receive any amount of the Securities Class Acton Settlement Consideration. Such Securities Class Action Members, to the extent they properly excluded themselves from the Securities Class Action Settlement and timely and properly filed a proof of claim in the bankruptcy case, may have certain rights under the Plan with respect to such claims. Pursuant to the Plan and Confirmation Order, such claims are subordinated to the level of the Company’s common stock that was issued and outstanding when the Company’s bankruptcy case was filed. Such claims are also subject to the Company’s objection.

The Company’s agreement to the Securities Class Action Settlement was not in any way an admission of the Company’s wrongdoing or liability. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the 300,000 shares were issued and the $250,000 payment was made.

PIPE Litigation

On January 7, 2016, certain investors (the “PIPE Claimants”), commenced an adversary proceeding (captioned Gregory Rea, et al. v. KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Adv. Pro. No. 16-50001 (LSS)) in the Bankruptcy Court against the Company alleging implied trust theories, breach of contract, fraud and violations of the federal securities laws in connection with the PIPE Claimants’ purchase of the Company’s common stock in the Private Placement (the “PIPE Litigation”).  The PIPE Claimants also raised certain other objections to the Company’s bankruptcy proceeding.  The PIPE Claimants sought an aggregate total of approximately $6.9 million in damages.

On May 9, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving a settlement stipulation between the Company and the PIPE Claimants (the “Settlement Stipulation”).  Under the Settlement Stipulation, in connection with the effectiveness of the Plan, and per the terms of the Settlement Stipulation, the Company became obligated to issue 327,608 shares to the PIPE Claimants and make a payment of $250,000 to the PIPE Claimants for the purpose of satisfying expenses related to the PIPE Litigation. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the 327,608 shares were issued and the $250,000 payment was made.

Claim by Marek Biestek

Marek Biestek was a director of the Company who, while not a plaintiff in the above described PIPE Litigation, filed a proof of claim alleging damages from the PIPE transaction and filed an objection to the confirmation of the Plan.  To resolve his objection to the Plan and his proof of claim, the Company settled with him individually by issuing him 3,750 additional shares of common stock. Mr. Biestek, as a former director of the Company, was excluded from the Securities Class Action Members and therefore received nothing from the Securities Class Action Litigation.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company recorded an obligation in stockholders’ equity to issue the shares related to the above claims totaling approximately $2.8 million and recorded the cash liability of $500,000 in Liabilities subject to compromise. During the year ended December 31, 2016, all of the above claims were satisfied and shares issued.

Savant Litigation

See Note 10 – “Savant Arrangements” and Part II, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for information about litigation between the Company and Savant that was instituted in July 2017.

12. Subsequent Events

Vendor Negotiations

In October 2017, the Company reached agreement with certain vendors which reduced trade payables by $2.0 million, which includes $1.1 million reclassified to a long-term liability, as it is based on future revenue. The gain of $900,000, will be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended December 31, 2017 as Other Income.
Term Loans

The outstanding principal balance of $14.7 million under the Term Loans, plus accrued interest and fees, became due on October 31, 2017.  See Note 7 – “Debt and Equity Financing” for further information about the Term Loans. As of October 31, 2017, the aggregate amount of the Company’s obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, including accrued interest and fees, approximated $16.1 million.
The Company does not have access to sufficient funds to repay the outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. Accordingly, on October 31, 2017, the Company obtained a short-term extension of the maturity of the Company’s obligations under the Term Loans. On November 16, 2017, the Company obtained an additional short-term extension of the maturity of the Company’s obligations under the Term Loans.  The extension agreed with the Term Loan Lenders extends the maturity date of the Company’s obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement to the earlier of (i) December 1, 2017, or (ii) the date that the Company consummates one or more alternative transactions with the Term Loan Lenders. Aside from the extension of the Maturity Date, the extensions did not modify any of the terms under the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

The Company has been discussing and continues to discuss with its Term Loan Lenders alternative transactions that might result in the satisfaction, extension or modification of the Company’s obligations including conversion of the Term Loans into equity in the Company, which may occur at a significant discount to the current market price and be dilutive to the ownership interests of existing stockholders. There can be no assurances that the Term Loan Lenders will agree to continue discussing any such alternative transactions or that the Company ultimately will be able to reach agreement with such Term Loan Lenders on the terms of any alternative transaction.

If the Company is unable to reach a satisfactory agreement with the Term Loan Lenders on any alternative transaction, the Company’s Board has authorized the Company’s management to prepare for a second bankruptcy filing while exploring other options in parallel.
Departure of Directors
On November 9, 2017, Dale Chappell and Ezra Friedberg resigned from the Board, effective immediately. Dr. Chappell is an affiliate of BHCMF, BHC and Cheval, each of which is a Term Loan Lender under the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

Overview

We were incorporated on March 15, 2000 in California and reincorporated as a Delaware corporation in September 2001 under the name KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. We completed our initial public offering in January 2013. Effective August 7, 2017, we changed our legal name to Humanigen, Inc.


We have undergone a significant transformation

As disclosed in our 2017 Form 10-K, since December 2015. As a result of challenges facing us at the time, on December 29, 2015, we filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On June 30, 2016, our Second Amended Plan of Reorganization, dated May 9, 2016, as amended, or the Plan, became effective and we emerged from our Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. For further information on our bankruptcy and emergence from bankruptcy, see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

On January 13, 2016, our common stock was suspended from the Nasdaq Global Market and began trading on the over-the-counter market under the ticker symbol KBIOQ.  On January 26, 2016, NASDAQ filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to complete the delisting of our common stock, and the delisting was effective on February 5, 2016.  On June 30, 2016, upon emergence from bankruptcy, the ticker symbol for the trading of our common stock on the over-the-counter market reverted back to KBIO. On June 26, 2017 our common stock began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the same ticker symbol. On August 7, 2017, following effectiveness of our previously reported name change to Humanigen, Inc., our common stock began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the new ticker symbol “HGEN”.
From the time of our emergence from bankruptcy to August 29, 2017, our lead product candidate was benznidazole for the treatment of Chagas disease, a parasitic illness that can lead to long-term heart, intestinal and neurological problems.

On June 30, 2016, we acquired certain worldwide rights to benznidazole from Savant Neglected Diseases, LLC, or Savant, and until August 29, 2017, we were primarily focused on the development necessary to seek and obtain approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for benznidazole and the subsequent commercialization, if approved.  According to FDA-issued guidance, benznidazole is eligible for review pursuant to a 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway as a potential treatment for Chagas disease and, if it became the first FDA-approved treatment for Chagas disease, we would have been eligible to receive a Priority Review Voucher (“PRV”).
However, on August 29, 2017, the FDA announced it had granted accelerated and conditional approval of a benznidazole therapy manufactured by Chemo Research, S.L. or Chemo, for the treatment of Chagas disease and had awarded that manufacturer a neglected tropical disease PRV. Chemo’s benznidazole also has received Orphan Drug designation. As a result of FDA’s actions and with the information currently available, we no longer expect to be eligible to receive a PRV with our own benznidazole candidate for the treatment of Chagas disease.  Accordingly, we have ceased development for benznidazole and are currently assessing a full range of options with respect to our benznidazole assets and development program.
Since the FDA’s August 29, 2017 announcement, we have shifted our primary focus toward developing our proprietary monoclonal antibody portfolio, which comprises lenzilumab, (formerly known as KB003)ifabotuzumab and ifabotuzumab (formerly known as KB004),HGEN005, for use in addressing significant unmet needs in oncology. Both of theseoncology and immunology. These product candidates are in the early stageat various stages of development and will require substantial time, expenses, clinical development, testing, and regulatory approval from the FDA prior to commercialization.commercialization, if they are approved at all. Furthermore, neithernone of these product candidates has advanced into a pivotal registration study studies and it may be years before any such a study isstudies are initiated, if at all.

Lenzilumab is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, or mAb that neutralizes soluble granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, or GM-CSF, a critical cytokine forin the inflammatory cascade associated with serious and potentially life-threatening CAR-T-related side effects and in the growth of certain hematologic malignancies, and solid tumors and potentially involved in other serious conditions. We expect to study lenzilumab’s potential in reducing the side effects associated with CAR-T therapy and potentially improving efficacy. We have begun to explore lenzilumab’s effectiveness in preventing or ameliorating neurotoxicity and CRS associated with CAR-T therapy. Pre-clinical animal data suggests there may be an increase in CAR-T cell expansion when combined with lenzilumab, which potentially could translate into improved CAR-T efficacy and this is likely to be an area of further study. In July 2016,addition, we initiated dosinghave completed enrollment of patients in a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia orfor CMML to identify the maximum tolerated dose,MTD, or recommended Phase 2 doseRPTD of lenzilumab and to assess lenzilumab’s safety, pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity.

We have enrolled a total of nine Fifteen patients in the 200, 400 and 600 mg dose cohorts of ourthe CMML trial have been enrolled, and we are currently evaluating subjects in the highest dose cohort of 600 mg for continuing accrual.accrual of up to 18 patients. We also plan to review preliminary safety and potential efficacy results and anticipate completion of the ad hoc interim analysis in the first half of 2018.

We also expect to explore lenzilumab’s effectiveness in reducing adverse events associated with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell, or CAR-T, therapy.  Specifically, we intend to explore lenzilumab’s effectiveness in preventing, ameliorating or treating CAR-T-cell-related adverse events. We may also use the interim data from the lenzilumab CMML Phase I1 study to determine the feasibility of rapidly commencing a Phase I1 study in JMML patients, or to explore progressing directly with a JMML Phase I2 CMML study. JMML is a rare pediatric cancer, is associated with a very high unmet medical need and there are no FDA-approved therapies.

Ifabotuzumab is an anti-EphA3EphA3 mAb that has the potential to offer a novel approach to treating solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, and serious pulmonary conditions.conditions and as a CAR construct. EphA3 is aberrantly expressed on the surface of tumor cells and stromalstroma cells in certain cancers. We completed the Phase 1 dose escalation portion of a Phase 1/2 ifabotuzumab clinical trial for ifabotuzumab in multiple hematologic malignancies for which the preliminary results were published in the journalLeukemia Research in 2016. An Investigator-Sponsoredinvestigator-sponsored Phase 0/1 radiolabeledradio-labeled imaging trial of ifabotuzumab in glioblastoma multiforme, (aa particularly aggressive and deadly form of brain cancer) cancer, has begun at the Olivia-Newton John Cancer Institute in Melbourne, Australia.   We are currently exploringalso in discussions with a leading center in the U.S. to develop a series of CAR constructs based on ifabotuzumab and may take these constructs, if developed, into pre-clinical testing for a range of cancer types. We will also continue to explore partnering opportunities to enable further development of ifabotuzumab.


Lenzilumab

HGEN005 is a pre-clinical stage anti-EMR1 mAb. EMR1 is a therapeutic target for eosinophilic disorders. Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell. If too many are produced in the body, chronic inflammation and ifabotuzumab were eachtissue and organ damage may result. Analysis of blood and bone marrow shows that surface expression of EMR1 is restricted to mature eosinophils and correlated with eosinophilia. Tissue eosinophils also express EMR1. In pre-clinical work, we demonstrated that eosinophil killing is enhanced in the presence of HGEN005 and immune effector cells. A major limitation of current eosinophil targeted therapies is incomplete depletion of tissue eosinophils and/or lack of cell selectivity, which may mean that HGEN005 could offer promise in a range of eosinophil-driven diseases, such as eosinophilic asthma, eosinophilic esophagitis and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. We are in discussion with a leading center in the U.S. to develop a series of CAR constructs based on HGEN005 and may take these constructs, if developed, into pre-clinical testing for eosinophilic leukemia, an orphan condition with significant unmet need.

We have incurred significant losses and had an accumulated deficit of $259.5$270.4 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2018. We expect to continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future as we develop our drug candidates, expand pre-clinical and clinical trials for our drug candidates currently in clinical development, expand our development activities and seek regulatory approvals. Significant capital is required to continue to develop and to launch a product and many expenses are incurred before revenue is received, if any. We are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will receive revenue or become profitable, if at all.

We

Despite completing the Restructuring Transactions, the common stock financings and the Advance Note financings (as discussed below), we will require substantial additional capital to continue as a going concern and to support our business efforts, including obtaining regulatory approvals for our product candidates, clinical trials and other studies, and, if approved, the commercialization of our product candidates.

 As discussed in further detail below under the caption “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” We anticipate that we do not have access to sufficient funds to repay our outstanding obligations totaling approximately $16.1 million under our outstanding Term Loans. We have been discussing and continue to discuss with our Term Loan Lenders alternative transactions that might result in the satisfaction, extension or modification of our obligations including conversion of the Term Loans into equity of the Company, which may occur at a significant discount to the current market price and be dilutive to the ownership interests of existing stockholdersIf we are unable to reach agreement with our Term Loan Lenders to satisfy, extend or modify these obligations, we may be forced to file for a second bankruptcy. Even if we were to successfully reach such an agreement with our Term Loan Lenders, in the future we would need towill seek additional financing from a number of sources, including, but not limited to, the sale of equity or debt securities, strategic collaborations, and licensing of our product candidates. Additional funding may not be available to us on a timely basis or onat acceptable terms, if at all. Our ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if not achieved on a timely basis, would materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our development programs. We may also be required to sell or license to others our technologies, product candidates, or development programs that we would have preferred to develop and commercialize ourselves and on less than favorable terms, if at all.
Based If in the best interests of our stockholders, we may also find it appropriate to enter into a strategic transaction that could result in, among other things, a sale, merger, consolidation or business combination.

If management is unsuccessful in efforts to raise additional capital, based on our current levels of operating expenses, our current capital willis not expected to be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements for the quarterthree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2018 were prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. Our ability to meet our liabilities and to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the availability of future funding. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

We are currently evaluating a full range of strategic alternatives to address or respond to our lack of liquidity to repay our outstanding term loans and other obligations. If we are able to successfully reach agreement with our Term Loan Lenders and are also able to successfully obtain additional financing, the review of strategic alternatives could result in, among other things, pursuit of a litigation strategy relating to our benznidazole intellectual property rights, a sale, merger, consolidation or business combination, asset divestiture, partnering, licensing or other collaboration agreements, or potential acquisitions or recapitalizations, in one or more transactions, or continuing to operate with our current business plan and strategy. We may incur substantial expenses associated with identifying, evaluating and pursuing potential strategic alternatives, and there can be no assurances as to whether any of these may be successfully implemented. If we are not successful in reaching agreement with our Term Loan Lenders, we may have to file a second petition for bankruptcy.  See Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates


Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Our management believes judgment is involved in determining revenue recognition, valuation of financing derivative, the fair value-based measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals and warrant valuations. Our management evaluates estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. If our assumptions change, we may need to revise our estimates, or take other corrective actions, either of which may also have a material adverse effect on our statements of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

We are an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act. Emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, we may not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.


There were no significant and material changes in our critical accounting policies and use of estimates during the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2018, as compared to those disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates” in our 2016 Annual Report on2017 Form 10-K, (File No. 001-35798), filed with the SEC on March 9, 2017.27, 2018.

Results of Operations


General


We have not generated net income from operations except for the year ended December 31, 2007 during which we recognized a one-time license payment from Novartis.any periods presented. At SeptemberJune 30, 20172018, we had an accumulated deficit of $259.5$270.4 million primarily as a result of research and development and general and administrative expenses. While we may in the future generate revenue from a variety of sources, including license fees, milestone payments, and research and development payments in connection with strategic partnerships, our product candidates may never be successfully developed or commercialized and we may therefore never realize revenue from any product sales, particularly because most of our product candidates are at an early stage of development. Accordingly, we expect to continue to incur substantial losses from operations for the foreseeable future, and there can be no assurance that we will ever generate significant revenue or profits.


Our operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily related to our status as a debtor in possession and other matters in connection with our Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, in addition to our efforts to obtain certain rights related to our former lead product candidate benznidazole. Our operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, which are now largely related to advancing our development programs, have changed substantially from the same period in 2016. Accordingly, comparisons of our operations and results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 to our operations and results in the prior year periods may only provide a limited benefit, and similarly should not be relied on as an indicator of our future operations or results.

Research and Development Expenses


Conducting research and development is central to our business model. We expense both internal and external research and development costs as incurred. We track external research and development costs incurred by project for each of our clinical programs. We began tracking our external costs by project beginning January 1, 2008, and we have continued to refine our systems and our methodology in tracking external research and development costs. Our external research and development costs consist primarily of:


·expenses incurred under agreements with contract research organizations, investigative sites, and consultants that conduct our clinical trials and a substantial portion of our preclinical activities;

·the cost of acquiring and manufacturing clinical trial and other materials; and
·other costs associated with development activities, including additional studies.

Other research and development costs consist primarily of internal research and development costs such as salaries and related fringe benefit costs for our employees (such as workers compensation and health insurance premiums), stock‑basedstock-based compensation charges, travel costs, lab supplies, overhead expenses such as rent and utilities, and external costs not allocated to one of our clinical programs. Internal research and development costs generally benefit multiple projects and are not separately tracked per project.

The following table shows our total research and development expenses for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172018 and 2016:

Restructuring Transactions

On December 1, 2017, our emergence from bankruptcy in June 2016, we closed an $11 million financing that providedobligations matured under the funds required to enable our exit from Chapter 11, as well as to fund our current working capital needs. In December 2016, we entered into a Credit and Security Agreement (the “TermTerm Loan Credit Agreement”) providing for an original $3.0 million credit facility (the “December 2016Agreement with the Term Loan”), net of certain fees and expenses.Loan Lenders. On MarchDecember 21, 2017, we entered into an amendment tothe Restructuring Agreements, each with the Term Loan Lenders, in connection with a series of transactions providing for, among other things, the satisfaction and extinguishment of our outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement to obtain an additional $5.5 million (the “March 2017 Term Loan”), net of certain fees and expenses, providing additional working capital. On July 8, 2017, we entered into a second amendment to the Term Loan Credit Agreement to obtain an additional $5.0 million (the “July 2017 Term Loan” and together with the December 2016 Term Loan and the March 2017 Term Loan, the “Term Loans”), netinfusion of certain fees and expenses, providing additional working$3.0 million of new capital. As of September 30, 2017, we had receivedFebruary 27, 2018, the entiredate the Restructuring Transactions were completed, the aggregate amount available under the July 2017 Term Loan,   bringing the total principal amount of the Term Loans to $14.7 million.  The outstanding balance of $16.1 million under the Term Loans, including accrued interest and fees, became due on October 31, 2017.  On October 31, 2017, we obtained a short-term extension from our Term Loan Lenders of the maturity of our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, until November 10, 2017. including the Bridge Loan, the Claims Advances Loan (each as discussed below) and all accrued interest and fees, approximated $18.4 million.

On November 16, 2017, we obtained an additional short-term extensionFebruary 27, 2018 (the “Restructuring Effective Date”), the Restructuring Transactions were completed in accordance with the Restructuring Agreements. As a result, on the Restructuring Effective Date, we: (i) in exchange for the satisfaction and extinguishment of the maturityentire $18.4 million balance of our obligations under the Term Loans, including the Bridge Loan, Credit Agreement.  The extension agreed withthe Claims Advances Loan and all accrued interest and fees, (a) issued to the Term Loan Lenders extends the maturity datean aggregate of 59,786,848 shares of our obligations undercommon stock (the “New Lender Shares”), and (b) transferred and assigned to Madison, an entity owned 70% by Nomis Bay and 30% by us, the Benz Assets, our former drug candidate, capable of being so assigned; and (ii) issued to Cheval an aggregate of 32,028,669 shares of our common stock (the “New Black Horse Shares” and, collectively with the New Lender Shares, the “New Common Shares”) for total consideration of $3.0 million (collectively, the “Restructuring Transactions”), $1.5 million of which we received on December 22, 2017 in the form of a bridge loan (the “Bridge Loan”).

On the Restructuring Effective Date, the aggregate amount of the Term Loans that were deemed to be satisfied and extinguished (i) previously owed to the Black Horse Entities, including the Bridge Loan and all accrued interest and fees, totaled $9.9 million, and (ii) previously owed to Nomis Bay, including the Claims Advances Loan totaling $0.1 million and all accrued interest and fees, totaled $8.5 million. In addition, on the Restructuring Effective Date, (i) each of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, toall promissory notes issued thereunder and the earlierIntellectual Property Security Agreement, dated as of (i) December 1, 2017, or (ii) the date that we consummate one or more alternative transactions with the Term Loan Lenders. Aside from the extension of the Maturity Date, the extensions did not modify any of the terms under the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

We do not have access to sufficient funds to repay the outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. Accordingly, we have been discussing21, 2016, by and continue to discuss with our Term Loan Lenders alternative transactions that might result in the satisfaction, extension or modification of our obligations including conversion of the Term Loans into equity of the Company, which may occur at a significant discount to the current market pricebetween us and be dilutive to the ownership interests of existing stockholders.  There can be no assurances that the Term Loan Lenders, were terminated and are of no further force or effect, and (ii) all security interests of the Black Horse Entities and Nomis Bay in our assets were released. Although the Term Loans were satisfied and extinguished, if Madison (at the election of Nomis Bay) elects to keep the Benz Assets after the Restructuring Effective Date, Nomis Bay will agreebe obligated to continue discussing any such alternative transactionspay or that we ultimatelycause Madison to pay $0.3 million in legal fees and expenses owed by us to our litigation counsel, which remain unpaid in our Accounts payable as of June 30, 2018.

Upon completion of the Restructuring Transactions, the Black Horse Entities collectively held 66,870,851 shares of our common stock, or approximately 62.6% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, the completion of the Restructuring Transactions on the Restructuring Effective Date resulted in a change in control of our company, as the Black Horse Entities and their affiliates owning more than a majority of our outstanding common stock. Dr. Dale Chappell, a member of our board of directors from June 30, 2016 until November 10, 2017, controls the Black Horse Entities and accordingly, will be able to reach agreement with such Term Loan Lenders on the termsexert control over matters of any alternative transaction.

If we are unable to reach a satisfactory agreement with the Term Loan Lenders on any alternative transactions, the Company’s board of directors has authorized the Company’s management team to prepare for a second bankruptcy filing while exploring other options in parallel.
Please see Note 7 – “Debtour company and Equity Financing” and Note 12 – “Subsequent Events” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information relating to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. See also Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
Even if we werewill be able to reach agreement withdetermine all matters of our company requiring stockholder approval.

Despite completing the Term Loan Lenders,Restructuring Transactions, the March 12, 2018 and the June 4, 2018 common stock issuances and the June 29, 2018 Advance Notes, we wouldwill require substantial additional capital to continue as a going concern and to support our business efforts, including obtaining regulatory approvals for our product candidates, clinical trials and other studies, and, if approved, the commercialization of our product candidates. The amount of capital we would will require and the timing of our need for additional capital will depend on many factors, including:

·the type, number, timing, progress, costs, and results of the product candidate development programs that we are pursuing or may choose to pursue in the future;

·the scope, progress, expansion, costs, and results of our pre-clinical and clinical trials;

·the timing of and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approvals;

·the success, progress, timing and costs of our efforts to evaluate or consummate various strategic alternatives if in the best interests of our stockholders;

·our ability to re-listpreserve our stock quotation on the OTCQB Venture Market or, in the future, to list our common stock on a national securities exchange, whether through a new listing or by completing a strategic transaction;

·our ability to establish and maintain development partnering arrangements and any associated funding;

·the emergence of competing products or technologies and other adverse market developments;
·the costs and outcome of pending and future litigation;

·the costs of maintaining, expanding, and protecting our intellectual property portfolio, including potential litigation costs and liabilities;

·the resources we devote to marketing, and, if approved, commercializing our product candidates;

·the scope, progress, expansion and costs of manufacturing our product candidates; and

·the costs associated with being a public company.

We are pursuing efforts to raise additional capital from a number of sources, including, but not limited to, the sale of equity or debt securities and strategic collaborations, and licensing of our product candidates.collaborations. Additional funding may not be available to us on a timely basis or at acceptable terms, if at all. Our ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if not achieved on a timely basis, would materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Any financing we may obtain may be dilutive to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our development programs. We may also be required to sell or license to others our technologies, product candidates, or development programs that we would have preferred to develop and commercialize ourselves and on less than favorable terms, if at all. If in the best interests of our stockholders, we may also find it appropriate to enter into a strategic transaction that could result in, among other things, a sale, merger, consolidation or business combination.

Based

If management is unsuccessful in efforts to raise additional capital, based on our current levels of operating expenses, our current capital will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.


On January 13, 2016, our

Our common stock was suspended from the Nasdaq Global Market and began trading on the over-the-counter market under the ticker symbol KBIOQ.  On January 26, 2016, NASDAQ filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to complete the delisting of our common stock, and the delisting was effective on February 5, 2016.  On June 30, 2016, upon emergence from bankruptcy, the ticker symbol for the trading of our common stock on the over-the-counter market reverted back to KBIO. On June 26, 2017 we began tradingcurrently trades on the OTCQB Venture Market under the same ticker symbol. On August 7, 2017, following the effectiveness of our previously reported name change, our common stock began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the new ticker symbol “HGEN”. Although our common stock is eligible to trade inlisted for quotation on the OTCQB Venture Market, trading is limited and an active market for our common stock may never develop in the future, which could harm our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations.

Committed Equity Financing Facility

On August 24, 2017,March 12, 2018, we entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement, dated asnotified Aperture of August 23, 2017 (the "ELOC Purchase Agreement"), with Aperture Healthcare Ventures Ltd. ("Aperture") pursuantour decision to which we may, subject to certain conditions and limitations set forth interminate the ELOC Purchase Agreement, require Aperture to purchase up to $15.0 million worth of newly issued shares of our common stock, over the 36-month term following the effectiveness of the initial resale registration statement described below (the “Investment Period”). From time to time over the Investment Period, and in our sole discretion, we may present Aperture with one or more notices requiring Aperture to purchase a specified dollar amount of shares of our common stock, based on the price per share per day over five consecutive trading days (the “Pricing Period”). In addition, in our sole discretion, but subject to certain limitations, we may require Aperture to purchase a percentage of the daily trading volume of our common stock for each trading day during the Pricing Period.


On August 23, 2017, in connection with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "ELOC RRA”) with Aperture, pursuant to which we granted to Aperture certain registration rights related to the shares issuable in accordance with the ELOC Purchase Agreement. Under the ELOC RRA, wehad agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and fileprovide us with the SEC one or more registration statements for the purposean equity line of registering the resale of the maximumcredit. We did not sell any shares issuable pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement.
The actual amountequity line of funds that can be raised under the Aperture committed equity financing facility will depend on the number of shares of our common stock sold under the ELOC Purchase Agreement and the market value of our common stock during the Pricing Period of each sale. We have yetcredit prior to file a registration statement under the ELOC RRA. Sales of common stock under the ELOC Purchase Agreement cannot commence until such registration statement is filed and declared effective by the SEC. There can be no assurance that we will use the Aperture facility to raise funds in the future. See Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding the ELOC Purchase Agreement and the ELOC RRA.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

Management’s Evaluation of our Disclosure Controls and Procedures


“Disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a‑15(e)13a-15(e) and 15d‑15(e)15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act 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, those designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon the evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172018 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely discussion regarding required disclosure.


Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


There has been no change

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting duringas of June 30, 2018. In making this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer used the quarter ended Septembercriteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO, inInternal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on that assessment and using the COSO criteria, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,2018, our internal control over financial reporting.reporting was not effective because of the material weaknesses described below.

A material weakness is defined as “a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.”

24 

The ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at June 30, 2018, was due to an insufficient degree of segregation of duties among our accounting and financial reporting personnel.

During 2018, we intend to work to remediate the material weaknesses identified above, which could include the addition of accounting and financial reporting personnel and/or the engagement of accounting and personnel consultants on a limited-time basis until we add a sufficient number of personnel. However, our current financial position could make it difficult for us to add the necessary resources.

Inherent Limitations of Controls

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. Controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost‑cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. 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. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision‑decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is 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, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost‑cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.Legal Proceedings.

Please see Note 1110 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of other legal proceedings.


On July 10, 2017,proceedings and developments during the Company filed a complaint against Savant Neglected Diseases, LLC (“Savant”) in the Superior Court for the State of Delaware, New Castle County (the “Delaware Court”).  KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Savant Neglected Diseases, LLC, No. N17C-07-068 PRW-CCLD.  The Company asserted breach of contract and declaratory judgment claims against Savant arising under the MDC Agreement. See Note 10 - “Savant Arrangements” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for more information about the MDC Agreement.  The Company alleges that Savant has breached its MDC Agreement obligations to pay cost overages that exceed a budgetary threshold as well as other related MDC Agreement representations and obligations. In the litigation, the Company has alleged that as ofquarter ended June 30, 2017,  Savant was responsible for aggregate cost overages of approximately $3.4 million, net of a $500,000 deductible under the MDC.   The Company asserts that it is entitled to offset $2 million in milestone payments due Savant against the cost overages, such that as of June 30, 2017 Savant owed the Company approximately $1.4 million.

On July 12, 2017, Savant removed the case to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, claiming that the action is related to or arises under the bankruptcy court case from which the Company emerged in July 2016. In re KaloBios Pharmaceuticals, Inc., No. 15-12628-LSS (Bankr. D. Del.). On July 27, 2017, Savant filed an Answer and Counterclaims.  Savant’s filing alleges breaches of contracts under the MDC Agreement and the Security Agreement, claiming that the Company breached its obligations to pay the milestone payments and other related representations and obligations.

On August 1, 2017, the Company moved to remand the case back to the Delaware Superior Court. Briefing on that motion is completed and awaiting determination by the Bankruptcy Court.

On August 2, 2017, Savant sent a foreclosure notice to the Company, demanding that the Company provide the Collateral as defined in the Security Agreement for inspection and possession on August 9, 2017, with a public sale to be held on September 1, 2017.  The Company moved for a Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction in the bankruptcy court on August 4, 2017.  Savant responded on August 7, 2017.  On August 7, 2017, the bankruptcy court granted the Company’s motion for a Temporary Restraining Order, entering an order prohibiting Savant from collecting on or selling the Collateral, entering the Company’s premises, issuing any default notices to the Company, or attempting to exercise any other remedies under the MDC Agreement or the Security Agreement.  The parties have stipulated to continue the provisions of the Temporary Restraining Order in full force and effect until further order of the appropriate court.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors26 

We do not have sufficient funds to repay our outstanding term loan obligations in full or significant part. If we cannot reach agreement with our Term Loan Lenders on alternative transactions providing for the satisfaction, extension or modification of our term loan obligations, we may have to file for bankruptcy in the near future.

               As of October 31, 2017, the aggregate amount of our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, including accrued interest and fees, approximated $16.1 million. The extension agreed with the Term Loan Lenders extends the maturity date of our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement to the earlier of (i) December 1, 2017, or (ii) the date that we consummate one or more alternative transactions with the Term Loan Lenders.
             We do not have access to sufficient funds to repay these outstanding obligations in full or in part. We have been discussing and continue to discuss with our Term Loan Lenders alternative transactions that might result in the satisfaction, extension or modification of these obligations, including conversion of the Term Loans into equity in the Company, which may occur at a significant discount to the current market price. There can be no assurances that the Term Loan Lenders will agree to continue discussing any such alternative transactions or that we ultimately will be able to reach agreement with such Term Loan Lenders on the terms of any alternative transaction.
If we are unable to reach a satisfactory agreement with our Term Loan Lenders our board of directors has authorized us to begin preparing the company to file a second bankruptcy petition. Given our lack of liquidity, it is reasonably likely that any such filing would result in a complete loss of value for our unsecured creditors and holders of our common stock.

If we are able to reach agreement with our Term Loan Lenders to convert the Term Loans into equity of the Company, the share ownership of our existing stockholders will be significantly diluted.

We have been discussing and continue to discuss with our Term Loan Lenders alternative transactions that might result in the satisfaction, extension or modification of our Term Loan obligations, including conversion of the Term Loans into equity in the Company, at a discount from the current market price.  If the Term Loan Lenders agree to convert the Term Loan into equity of the Company at a discount from current market prices, current stockholders will experience significant dilution in their shares ownership.

Even if we were able to reach agreement with our Term Loan Lenders, we will need substantial additional capital to develop and commercialize our product candidates and to continue as a going concern, but our access to capital funding is uncertain.

We will require substantial additional capital to continue as a going concern and to support our business efforts, including obtaining regulatory approvals for lenzilumab and ifabotuzumab, clinical trials and other studies, and, if approved, the commercialization of our product candidates. The amount of capital we will require and the timing of our need for additional capital will depend on many factors, including:
the type, number, timing, progress, costs, and results of the product candidate development programs that we are pursuing or may choose to pursue in the future;
the scope, progress, expansion, costs, and results of our pre-clinical and clinical trials;
the timing of and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approvals;
the success, progress, timing and costs of our efforts to evaluate or consummate various strategic alternatives if in the best interests of our stockholders;
our ability to re-list our common stock on a national securities exchange, whether through a new listing or by completing a strategic transaction;
our ability to establish and maintain development partnering arrangements and any associated funding;
the emergence of competing products or technologies and other adverse market developments;
the costs of maintaining, expanding, and protecting our assets and intellectual property portfolio, including potential litigation costs and liabilities;
the resources we devote to marketing, and, if approved, commercializing our product candidates;
the scope, progress, expansion and costs of manufacturing our product candidates; and
the costs associated with being a public company.
We will need to seek additional financing from a number of sources, including, but not limited to, the sale of equity or debt securities, strategic collaborations, and licensing of our product candidates. Additional funding may not be available to us on a timely basis or at acceptable terms, if at all. Our ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if not achieved on a timely basis, would materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, to the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, such issuance will result in further dilution to our stockholders.
If management is unsuccessful in efforts to raise additional capital, based on our current levels of operating expenses, our current capital is not expected to be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We may not be able to recover any portion of our investment in benznidazole after the FDA’s award of a Priority Review Voucher to a competitor’s drug candidate.

From the time of our emergence from bankruptcy to August 29, 2017, our lead product candidate was benznidazole for the treatment of Chagas disease. We acquired certain worldwide rights to benznidazole on June 30, 2016 and, until August 29, 2017, were primarily focused on the development necessary to seek and obtain approval by the FDA for benznidazole and the subsequent commercialization, if approved. According to FDA issued guidance, benznidazole is eligible for review pursuant to a 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway as a potential treatment for Chagas disease and, if it became the first FDA-approved treatment for Chagas disease, we would have been eligible to receive a PRV.  We invested a significant portion of our time and financial resources in the approval of benznidazole with a more limited focus on our other product candidates.
However, on August 29, 2017, the FDA announced it had granted accelerated and conditional approval of a benznidazole therapy manufactured by Chemo for the treatment of Chagas disease and had awarded that manufacturer a tropical disease PRV. Chemo’s benznidazole also received Orphan Drug designation.  As a result of FDA’s actions and with the information currently available, we no longer expect to be eligible to receive a PRV with our own benznidazole candidate for the treatment of Chagas disease.
We are currently assessing a full range of options with respect to our benznidazole assets and development program, which may include an asset divestiture or pursuit of a litigation strategy if we believe our benznidazole intellectual property rights have been violated by any of our competitors. Litigation may be necessary to protect our rights, which could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to our management team. There can be no assurance that the exploration or pursuit of one or more of these options will result in our ability to recover all or any portion of our investment in benznidazole.

If we can obtain funding, our forward-looking business operations will depend on the success of our product candidates, lenzilumab and ifabotuzumab. We cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain regulatory approval for, or successfully commercialize, any of our product candidates.
. We have a limited pipeline of product candidates and are not conducting active research at this time for discovery of new molecules or antibodies. We are currently dependent on the successful continued development and regulatory approval of our current product candidates for our future business success. Since the FDA’s August 29, 2017 announcement, our primary focus has shifted to investing our time and financial resources in the development of lenzilumab and ifabotuzumab.
We will need to successfully enroll and complete clinical trials of lenzilumab and ifabotuzumab, and potentially obtain regulatory approval to market these products. The future clinical, regulatory and commercial success of our product candidates is subject to a number of risks, including the following:
we may not be able to enroll adequate numbers of eligible patients in the clinical trials we propose to conduct;
we may not have sufficient financial and other resources to complete the clinical trials;
we may not be able to provide acceptable evidence of safety and efficacy for our product candidates;
the results of our clinical trials may not meet the level of statistical or clinical significance, or product safety, required by FDA for marketing approval;
we may not be able to obtain, maintain and enforce our patents and other intellectual property rights; and
we may not be able to obtain and maintain commercial manufacturing arrangements with third-party manufacturers or establish commercial-scale manufacturing capabilities.
Furthermore, even if we do receive regulatory approval to market any of our product candidates, any such approval may be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for which we may market the product. If any of our product candidates are unsuccessful, that could have a substantial negative impact on our business.
Accordingly, even if we are able to obtain the requisite financing to continue to fund our development programs, we cannot assure you that our product candidates will be successfully developed or commercialized. If we or any future development partners are unable to develop, or obtain regulatory approval for or, if approved, successfully commercialize, one or more of our product candidates, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to continue our business.
