Note 10. Stockholders’ Equity

Series B Preferred Stock

In March 1999, the Company issued 3,327 shares of the Company’s Series B preferred stock to Fenwal, Inc. (“Fenwal”) (formerly, Baxter International Inc.). The Series B preferred stock had no voting rights, except with respect to the authorization of any class or series of stock having preference or priority over the Series B preferred stock as to voting, liquidation or conversion or with respect to the determination of fair value of non-publicly traded shares received by the holder of Series B preferred stock in the event of a liquidation, or except as required by Delaware law. At any time, the holder had the ability to convert each share of Series B preferred stock into 100 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company had the right to redeem the Series B preferred stock prior to conversion for a payment of $9.5 million. In June 2012, Fenwal exercised its right to convert all 3,327 shares of the Company’s Series B preferred stock. As a result, the Company issued 332,700 shares of its common stock to Fenwal and retired the outstanding Series B preferred stock.

Common Stock and Associated Warrant Liability

In August 2009, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $12.1 million, after deducting placement agent’s fees and stock issuance costs of approximately $1.1 million, from a registered direct offering of 6.0 million units. Each unit sold consisted of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase 4/10 of a share of common stock. Each unit was sold for $2.20, resulting in the issuance of 6.0 million shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 2.4 million shares of common stock, exercisable at an exercise price of $2.90 per share. The warrants issued in August 2009 (“2009 Warrants”) are exercisable for a period of five years from the issue date. The fair value on the date of issuance of the 2009 Warrants was determined to be $2.8 million using the binomial-lattice option valuation model and applying the following assumptions: (i) a risk-free rate of 2.48%, (ii) an expected term of 5.0 years, (iii) no dividend yield and (iv) a volatility of 77%.

In November 2010, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $19.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and stock issuance costs of approximately $1.3 million, from an underwritten public offering of 7.4 million units. Each unit sold consisted of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase 1/2 of a share of common stock. Each unit was sold for $2.85, resulting in the issuance of 7.4 million shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 3.7 million shares of common stock, exercisable at an exercise price of $3.20 per share. The warrants issued in November 2010 (“2010 Warrants”) became exercisable on May 15, 2011 and are exercisable for a period of five years from the issue date. The fair value on the date of issuance of the 2010 Warrants was determined to be $5.8 million using the binomial-lattice option valuation model and applying the following assumptions: (i) a risk-free rate of 1.23%, (ii) an expected term of 5.0 years, (iii) no dividend yield and (iv) a volatility of 85%.

The fair value of the 2009 Warrants and 2010 Warrants was recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a liability pursuant to “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity” Topics of ASC and will be adjusted to fair value at each financial reporting date thereafter until the earlier of exercise or modification to remove the provisions which require the warrants to be treated as a liability, at which time, these warrants would be reclassified into stockholders’ equity. The Company classified the 2009 Warrants and 2010 Warrants as a liability as these warrants contain certain provisions that, under certain circumstances, which may be out of the Company’s control, could require the Company to pay cash to settle the exercise of the warrants or may require the Company to redeem the warrants.

 

The fair value of the warrants at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

                 
    June 30,
2012		     December 31,
2011		  

2009 Warrants

   $ 2,772     $ 3,010  

2010 Warrants

     5,977       4,969  
   

 

 

    

 

 

  

Total warrant liability

   $ 8,749     $ 7,979  
   

 

 

    

 

 

  

The fair value of the Company’s warrants was based on using the binomial-lattice option valuation model and using the following assumptions at June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011:

 

                 
    June 30,
2012		     December 31,
2011		  

2009 Warrants:

                

Expected term (in years)

     2.15       2.65  

Estimated volatility

     52 %      74 % 

Risk-free interest rate

     0.33 %      0.36 % 

Expected dividend yield

     0 %      0 % 

2010 Warrants:

                

Expected term (in years)

     3.36       3.86  

Estimated volatility

     70 %      70 % 

Risk-free interest rate

     0.41 %      0.60 % 

Expected dividend yield

     0 %      0 % 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, the Company recorded non-cash gains (losses) of $3.7 million and $(0.3) million, respectively, on its condensed consolidated statements of operations within non-operating expense, net, due to the changes in fair value of the warrants. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, and 2011, the Company recorded non-cash losses of $0.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively, on its condensed consolidated statements of operations within non-operating expense, net, due to the changes in fair value of the warrants. Significant changes to the Company’s market price for its common stock will impact the implied and/or historical volatility used to fair value the warrants. As a result, any significant increases in the Company’s stock price will likely create an increase to the fair value of warrant liability. At June 30, 2012, the 2010 Warrants to purchase 5,084 shares of common stock were exercised. At December 31, 2011, no warrants had been exercised.

At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement

The Company entered into an At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) in June 2011, as amended in January 2012, with MLV & Co. LLC, formerly McNicoll, Lewis & Vlak LLC (“MLV”) that provides for the issuance and sale of shares of its common stock over the term of the Sales Agreement having an aggregate offering price of up to $20.0 million through MLV. In conjunction with the Sales Agreement, MLV acts as the Company’s sales agent and receives compensation based on an aggregate of 3% of the gross proceeds on the sale price per share of its common stock. The issuance and sale of these shares by the Company pursuant to the Sales Agreement are deemed an “at-the-market” offering and are registered under the Securities Act. During the year ended December 31, 2011, approximately 3.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock were sold under the Sales Agreement for aggregate net proceeds of $9.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company sold approximately 3.1 million additional shares of its common stock for aggregate net proceeds of $9.5 million.

Stockholder Rights Plan

In October 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted an amendment to its 1999 stockholder rights plan, commonly referred to as a “poison pill,” to reduce the exercise price, extend the expiration date and revise certain definitions under the plan. The stockholder rights plan is intended to deter hostile or coercive attempts to acquire the Company. The stockholder rights plan enables stockholders to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, or the common stock of an acquirer, at a substantial discount to the public market price should any person or group acquire more than 15% of the Company’s common stock without the approval of the Board of Directors under certain circumstances. The Company has designated 250,000 shares of Series C Junior Participating preferred stock for issuance in connection with the stockholder rights plan.
