Aradigm Corporation (OTCBB: ARDM.OB)

 

 

HAYWARD, Calif.—May 13-- Aradigm Corporation (OTC BB: ARDM.OB) (the "Company") today announced financial results for the first quarter and three months ended March 31, 2010.

 

Total revenue was $4.0 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with zero revenue for the first quarter of 2009. Revenue for the first quarter of 2010 reflects the receipt of the milestone payment due from Zogenix, Inc. upon the first U.S. sale of SUMAVEL* DosePro* needle-free delivery system for treatment of acute migraine and cluster headaches.

 

We anticipate recording recurring royalty revenue beginning with the three months ending September 30, 2010 since the terms of our asset sale agreement with Zogenix provides for royalty payments to be based on cash received by Zogenix on their product sales and there is a sixty day lag following the end of the quarter in royalty reporting. We have been informed by Zogenix that wholesalers distributing the SUMAVEL DosePro product were given net 90 day payments terms for the first quarter sales, resulting in the effective delay of first quarter 2010 royalties until the second quarter 2010 royalty payment due in late August 2010. After the first quarter of 2010, the payment terms for wholesalers reverted to net 30 days.

Financial Results

 

The net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $(166.6) million, or $(0.76) per share, compared with a net loss of $(11.1) million, or $(0.64) per share, for the first quarter of 2009. At March 31, 2010, Genta had cash and cash equivalents totaling $19.6 million compared with $1.2 million at December 31, 2009. Net cash used in operating activities through March 31, 2010 was $2.3 million.

 

As previously reported, in March 2010, the Company closed on a financing, whereby it issued $25 million of units consisting of $20 million of various senior unsecured convertible notes, $5 million of senior secured convertible notes and warrants to purchase additional senior unsecured convertible notes of $10.0 million. The Company had direct access to $20 million of the proceeds, and the remaining $5 million of the proceeds were placed in a blocked account as collateral security for the $5 million of secured notes. Also in March 2010, three investors who had participated in our April 2009 financing, exercised their rights to acquire convertible notes of $0.9 million. There was an insufficient number of authorized shares of common stock in order to permit conversion of all of the notes and warrants associated with these transactions. Accordingly, the conversion obligation for the notes and warrants were classified as liabilities and measured at fair value on the balance sheet, resulting in a total non-cash expense of $153.8 million for the first quarter of 2010. The conversion feature liabilities and the warrant liabilities will be accounted for using mark-to-market accounting at each future reporting date until all the criteria for permanent equity have been met. The Company has filed a proxy with the Securities and Exchange Commission that seeks authorization from Genta's stockholders to authorize the Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split that would among other effects provide sufficient equity to meet the permanent equity criteria.
