Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations. Avadel Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: AVDL) (“Avadel,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a biopharmaceutical company. The Company is registered as an Irish public limited company. The Company’s headquarters are in Dublin, Ireland with operations in Dublin, Ireland and St. Louis, Missouri, United States (“U.S.”). LUMRYZ is an extended-release formulation of sodium oxybate indicated to be taken once at bedtime for the treatment of cataplexy or excessive daytime sleepiness (“EDS”) in patients seven years of age and older with narcolepsy. LUMRYZ was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) on May 1, 2023 for the treatment of cataplexy or EDS in adults with narcolepsy. The FDA also granted Orphan Drug Exclusivity (“ODE”) to LUMRYZ for treatment of cataplexy or EDS in adults with narcolepsy for a period of seven years until May 1, 2030. In June 2023, the Company commercially launched LUMRYZ in the U.S for the treatment of cataplexy or EDS in adults living with narcolepsy. LUMRYZ was approved by the FDA for use in the treatment of cataplexy or EDS in the pediatric narcolepsy population seven years of age and older on October 16, 2024, and was granted ODE for this patient population through October 16, 2031. The FDA required implementation of a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (“REMS”) to help ensure the benefits of the drug outweigh the risks of serious adverse outcomes resulting from inappropriate prescribing, misuse, abuse, and diversion of the same. Under the LUMRYZ REMS, healthcare providers who prescribe the drug must be specially certified, pharmacies that dispense the drug must be specially certified, and the drug must be dispensed only to patients who have enrolled in the LUMRYZ REMS and completed all REMS requirements, including documentation of safe use conditions. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company’s only commercialized product is LUMRYZ. The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to expand its product portfolio. Liquidity. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The adequacy of the Company’s cash resources depends on the outcome of certain business conditions including the Company’s ongoing LUMRYZ commercialization activities, the Company’s cost structure, and other factors set forth in “Risk Factors” within Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 3, 2025 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”). Ordinary Shares Effective April 15, 2024, the Company’s ordinary shares, nominal value $0.01 per share (“ordinary shares”), became directly listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Company caused a mandatory exchange of its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) for the underlying ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. Accordingly, the Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY Mellon”), as Depositary for the ADSs, issued a notice of termination of its American Depository Receipt program (“ADR Program”) of ADSs to the registered holders of ADSs according to the requirements under the deposit agreement dated January 3, 2017 (the “Deposit Agreement”) among the Company, BNY Mellon and holders of ADSs. The Deposit Agreement terminated on July 15, 2024. At-the-Market Offering Program On May 8, 2024, the Company entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement SM (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”) pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell its ordinary shares, from time to time, with respect to an at-the-market offering program (“ATM Program”) under which Jefferies will act as sales agent. The Sales Agreement provides that Jefferies will be entitled to aggregate compensation for its services of an amount up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any ordinary shares sold through Jefferies under the Sales Agreement. The ordinary shares will be offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-267198), filed with the SEC on August 31, 2022, as amended, and declared effective by the SEC on September 12, 2022, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated May 8, 2024 (the “Prospectus Supplement”). The Company may offer and sell ordinary shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $100,000 under the Prospectus Supplement. The Company did not issue or sell ordinary shares under at-the-market offering program during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Basis of Presentation. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, consequently, do not include all information or footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements or all the disclosures normally made in an Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified within the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements to condense line items of the same nature to conform with the current year presentation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. Share-based Compensation. The Company accounts for share-based compensation based on the estimated grant-date fair value. The fair value and requisite service period of market-based performance non-qualified stock options ("market-based NQSOs") is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation methodology on the date of grant. For market-based NQSOs, the Company uses a straight-line method to recognize compensation expense over the award’s requisite service period, net of estimated forfeiture rates. Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of ASU 2023-09 will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), to require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact adopting ASU 2024-03 will have on its financial statement disclosures.
