Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisition of Ceregene | NOTE 6 – ACQUISITION OF CEREGENE In August 2013, Sangamo acquired all the outstanding shares of Ceregene, a privately held biotechnology company focused on the development of AAV gene therapies. The acquired assets included certain intellectual property rights relating to the manufacturing of AAV, and certain toxicology data and safety and efficacy data from Ceregene’s human clinical trials, that were be used in the preparation and filing of IND applications for Sangamo’s in vivo ZFP Therapeutics, particularly those that target the brain. The acquisition closed in October 2013 (the Closing Date). The aggregate consideration transferred or transferable by Sangamo to former Ceregene stockholders at closing consisted of 100,000 shares of Sangamo common stock, with an approximate fair value of $1.2 million and a contingent earn-out of $1.5 million on the Closing Date. Sangamo was not required to make the contingent earn-out payments (the Earn-Out Payments) to the stockholders of Ceregene as Sangamo has not pursued the development of Ceregene’s AAV gene therapies as the Company decided to discontinue CERE-110 and CERE-120 clinical trial programs. Also on the Closing Date, Sangamo, Ceregene and certain of Ceregene’s stockholders entered into an indemnity escrow agreement, pursuant to which $0.3 million of Ceregene remaining cash was deposited in an escrow account and released subsequent to April 1, 2015 for the benefit of Sangamo to satisfy indemnity obligations of the stockholders under the Merger Agreement. In-Process Research and Development Intangible assets include IPR&D, which consists of Ceregene’s two clinical product candidates, CERE-110 for the treatment of AD and CERE-120 for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. The Company determined that the combined Closing Date estimated fair values of CERE-110 and CERE-120 was $1.9 million. The Company used an income approach, which is a measurement of the present value of the net economic benefit or cost expected to be derived from an asset or liability, to measure the fair value of these two product candidates. Under the income approach, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows (excess earnings) attributable solely to the intangible asset over its remaining useful life. In the first quarter of 2015, the Company decided to discontinue the CERE-110 and CERE-120 clinical trial programs. As such, the probability of achieving projected revenues and cash flows associated with these programs were adversely affected. The Company does not believe the programs have an alternative future use for itself or other market participants. Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recognized a $1.9 million impairment charge related to these assets Goodwill The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was $1.6 million, which represents the goodwill resulting from the acquisition. Goodwill represents benefits that Sangamo believes will result from combining its operations with the operations of Ceregene and any intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, as well as any future, yet unidentified products. The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or sooner, if deemed necessary. There have been no changes to the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, including goodwill, since the Closing Date Liability for Contingent Consideration In addition the Company was required to make contingent Earn-Out Payments in the future if the Company grants a third-party license to develop and commercialize products based on the technology acquired from Ceregene (the “Earn-out Products”) or if the Company commercializes any Earn-Out Products itself. The fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration recognized on the Closing Date was $1.5 million. The Company determined the fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the recognized amount of the liability for contingent consideration decreased by $1.8 million due to the decrease in the probability of incurring potential future royalty payments associated with the impairment of the in-process research and development (IPR&D) assets acquired from Ceregene (see Note 7).
