Summary of Significant Accounting Polices |
Reverse stock split | Reverse stock split In connection with the IPO, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved a 1-for-12.85 reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock which was effected on June 11, 2015. Stockholders entitled to fractional shares as a result of the reverse stock split received a cash payment in lieu of receiving fractional shares. All share, share equivalent and per share amounts presented herein have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. The ratios by which shares of Preferred Stock were convertible into shares of Common Stock have been adjusted to reflect the effects of the reverse stock split. Shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance have been presented on an as converted basis and the financial statements disclose the adjusted conversion ratios.
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements and the related disclosures are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position for the periods presented. The unaudited interim condensed financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 and notes thereto, included in the Company’s prospectus dated June 24, 2015, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on June 25, 2015 (the “Prospectus”). The unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2015, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2015, or for any future period.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from such estimates. The Company utilized significant estimates and assumptions in determining the fair value of its Common Stock prior to completion of the IPO. The board of directors determined the estimated fair value of the Common Stock based on a number of objective and subjective factors, including external market conditions affecting the biotechnology industry sector and the prices at which the Company sold shares of convertible preferred stock, the achievement of research and development milestones, the superior rights and preferences of securities senior to the Common Stock at the time and the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an initial public offering or sale of the Company. The Company utilized various valuation methodologies in accordance with the framework of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), Audit and Accounting Practice Aid Series: Valuation of Privately Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation (“AICPA Practice Aid”), to estimate the fair value of its Common Stock. The methodologies included the Option Pricing Method utilizing the Backsolve Method (a form of the market approach defined in the AICPA Practice Aid) and the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method based upon the probability of occurrence of certain future liquidity events such as an initial public offering or sale of the Company. Each valuation methodology includes estimates and assumptions that required the Company’s judgment. Significant changes to the key assumptions used in the valuations could result in different fair values of Common Stock at each valuation date. The Company utilizes certain estimates to record expenses relating to research and development contracts. These contract estimates, which are primarily related to the length of service of each contract, are determined by the Company based on input from internal project management, as well as from third-party service providers.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheets for cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, due to their short-term nature. There have been no changes to the valuation methods during the year ended December 31, 2014 or the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Company evaluates transfers between levels at the end of each reporting period. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between levels during the year ended 2014 or the nine months ended September 30, 2015. At September 30, 2015, the carrying value of the Company’s debt approximated fair value, which was determined using Level 3 inputs, including a quoted interest rate.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability rather than as a deferred charge. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its financial statements. In 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”), which is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2014-15 provides new guidance on (1) management’s responsibility in evaluating whether or not there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued each reporting period and (2) related financial statement disclosures. The Company has not adopted the guidance prescribed by ASU 2014-15 and does not expect the new guidance to have a significant effect on its financial statements.
