Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 12. Commitments and Contingencies Guarantees and Indemnifications — In the ordinary course of its business, the Company makes certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. The Company, as permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with its Bylaws, indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while the officer or director is or was serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer’s or director’s lifetime. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that may enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company believes the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. However, the Company accrues for losses for any known contingent liability, including those that may arise from indemnification provisions, when future payment is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. No such losses have been recorded to date. Litigation — The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. As of September 30, 2018, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company and no accrual has been recorded. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage to protect the Company’s assets from losses arising out of or involving activities associated with ongoing and normal business operations. The Company records a provision for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company’s policy is to accrue for legal expenses in connection with legal proceedings and claims as they are incurred. Following the public announcement of Sanofi’s election to terminate the Sanofi License Agreement and the subsequent decline in the Company’s stock price, two motions were submitted to the district court at Tel Aviv, Economic Department for the certification of a class action against the Company and certain of its officers and directors. In general, the complaints alleged that the Company and certain of its officers and directors violated Israeli and U.S. securities laws by making materially false and misleading statements regarding the prospects for Afrezza, thereby artificially inflating the price of its common stock. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages. In November 2016, the district court dismissed one of the actions without prejudice. In the remaining action, the district court recently ruled that U.S. law will apply to this case. The plaintiff appealed this ruling to the Supreme Court of Israel, which upheld the ruling of the lower court. The Company will vigorously defend against the claims advanced. Contingencies — In connection with the Facility Agreement, on July 1, 2013, the Company also entered into the Milestone Agreement with the Milestone Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company sold the Milestone Purchasers the Milestone Rights to receive payments up to $90.0 million, of which $75.0 million remain payable, upon the achievement of specified net sales figures (see Note 7 – Borrowings). Commitments — On July 31, 2014, the Company entered into a supply agreement (the “Insulin Supply Agreement”) with Amphastar France Pharmaceuticals S.A.S., a French corporation (“Amphastar”), pursuant to which Amphastar manufactures for and supplies to the Company certain quantities of recombinant human insulin for use in Afrezza. Under the terms of the Insulin Supply Agreement, Amphastar is responsible for manufacturing the insulin in accordance with the Company’s specifications and agreed-upon quality standards. On November 9, 2016, the supply agreement with Amphastar was amended to extend the term over which the Company is required to purchase insulin, without reducing the total amount of insulin to be purchased. Under the amendment, remaining annual minimum quantities of insulin to be purchased for calendar years 2018 through 2023 total an aggregate purchase price of €85.8 million at September 30, 2018. The Insulin Supply Agreement specifies that Amphastar will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations with respect to quantity, if the actual quantity supplied is within plus or minus ten percent (+/- 10%) of the quantity set forth in the applicable purchase order. In addition, the aggregate cancellation fees that the Company would incur in the event that certain insulin quantities are not purchased were reduced from $5.3 million for the period October 1, 2016 through 2018 to $3.4 million over the same period. As of September 30, 2018, the remaining annual purchase requirements under the contract are as follows:
2018 | € | 4.4 million
2019 | € | 11.6 million
2020 | € | 15.5 million
2021 | € | 15.5 million
2022 | € | 19.4 million
2023 | € | 19.4 million
The Company took delivery of the required amount of insulin under the contract in 2017 but was only obligated to pay for half prior to December 31, 2017. Accordingly, approximately $1.6 million was included in accounts payable at December 31, 2017 related to the 2017 purchase commitment, which was paid in January 2018. Unless terminated earlier, the term of the Insulin Supply Agreement with Amphastar expires on December 31, 2023 and can be renewed for additional, successive two year terms upon 12 months’ written notice given prior to the end of the initial term or any additional two year term. The Company and Amphastar each have normal and customary termination rights, including termination for material breach that is not cured within a specific time frame or in the event of liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party. In addition, the Company may terminate the Insulin Supply Agreement upon two years’ prior written notice to Amphastar without cause or upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Amphastar if a controlling regulatory authority withdraws approval for Afrezza, provided, however, in the event of a termination pursuant to either of these two scenarios, the provisions of the Insulin Supply Agreement require the Company to pay the full amount of all unpaid purchase commitments due over the initial term within 60 calendar days of the effective date of such termination. On April 2, 2018, the Company entered into a foreign currency hedging transaction to mitigate its exposure to foreign currency exchange risks. The hedging transaction hedges against short-term currency fluctuations for the remaining current year purchase requirement amount of €4.4 million and is renewable every 90 days. In 2018, the Company realized a currency loss of approximately $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2018 and $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2018. These amounts are recorded in cost of goods sold. At September 30, 2018, the Company has other firm commitments with suppliers for an aggregate of $0.1 million. Warrants - On April 5, 2018, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with certain institutional investors. Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreements, the Company sold to the purchasers in a registered offering an aggregate of 14,000,000 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 14,000,000 shares of its common stock at a combined purchase price of $2.00 per share and accompanying warrant. The shares of the common stock and the warrants were immediately separable. The warrants will be exercisable at a price of $2.38 per share beginning six months following the date of issuance and will expire six months thereafter. The net proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $26.4 million. The offering closed on April 9, 2018. Vehicle Leases – The Company entered into a lease agreement with Enterprise for the lease of approximately 100 vehicles. The lease requires monthly payments of approximately $54,000 per month plus the cost of maintaining the vehicles. The leases commenced when the Company took possession of the majority of the vehicles in the second quarter of 2018. The leases expire 48 months after the delivery date. On March 8, 2018 the Company entered into a standby letter of credit for a total of $0.5 million in connection with the Company’s sales force vehicle lease program. The letter of credit is collateralized by a restricted cash account in the amount of $0.5 million. There were no amounts drawn down on this letter of credit as of September 30, 2018. Office Lease — On May 5, 2017, the Company executed an office lease with Russell Ranch Road II LLC for the Company’s corporate headquarters in Westlake Village, California. The office lease commenced in August 2017. The lease requires monthly payments of $40,951, increased by 3% annually, plus the estimated cost of maintaining the property by the landlord with a five month concession from October 2017 through February 2018. The lease expires January 2023 and provides the Company with a five year renewal option. On November 29, 2017, the Company executed an office lease with Russell Ranch Road II LLC to expand the office space for the Company’s corporate headquarters in Westlake Village, California. The office lease will commence in October 2018. The lease requires monthly payments of $35,969, increased by 3% annually, plus the estimated cost of maintaining the property by the landlord. In addition, the Company was entitled to reimbursement from the landlord of up to $56,325 for tenant improvements. As the Company did not exercise the tenant improvement, the amount was used to offset monthly rent. The lease expires January 2023 and provides the Company with a five year renewal option. Rental expense under all operating leases including office space and equipment was approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. Future minimum lease payments are as follows:
2018 |  | $ | 396,000 |
2019 |  |  | 1,595,000 |
