Deferred Revenue Disclosure [Abstract] |
Deferred Revenue Disclosure [Text Block] | 10. Deferred Revenue In December 2003, the Company entered into the Mitek ORTHOVISC Agreement with Ortho Biotech Products, L.P., a member of the Johnson & Johnson family of companies, to market ORTHOVISC in the U.S. In mid-2005, the agreement was assigned to Mitek. Under the Mitek ORTHOVISC Agreement, Mitek performs sales, marketing, and distribution functions, and Mitek licenses the right to further develop and commercialize ORTHOVISC, as well as other new products for the treatment of pain associated with osteoarthritis based on the Company’s viscosupplementation technology. In support of the license, the Mitek ORTHOVISC Agreement provides that Mitek will fund post-marketing clinical trials for new indications of ORTHOVISC. The Company received an initial payment of $2,000,000 upon entering into the Mitek ORTHOVISC Agreement, a milestone payment of $20,000,000 in February 2004 as a result of obtaining FDA approval of ORTHOVISC, and a milestone payment of $5,000,000 in December 2004 for planned upgrades to our manufacturing operations. The Company evaluated the terms of the Mitek ORTHOVISC Agreement and determined that the upfront fee and milestone payments did not meet the conditions to be recognized separately from the supply agreement. In December 2011, the Company entered into a fifteen-year licensing agreement (the “Mitek MONOVISC Agreement”) with DePuy Synthes Mitek Sports Medicine, a division of DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc., to exclusively market MONOVISC in the U.S. The Company received an upfront payment of $2,500,000 in December 2011. This non-refundable upfront payment did not have standalone value without Anika’s completion of development obligations, which included obtaining regulatory approval of the product and resolving the related patent litigation. As a result, the Company recognized the upfront payment over the development obligation period. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company received FDA approval of MONOVISC and resolved the patent lawsuit with Genzyme Corporation. As a result of the full delivery of its development obligations under this agreement, the Company recognized approximately $2,200,000, which represented the remaining balance of deferred revenue relating to the initial $2,500,000 payment, in accordance with current generally accepted principles on revenue recognition. In the first quarter of 2014, the Company also received a milestone payment of $17,500,000 as a result of achieving FDA approval for MONOVISC and resolving the patent litigation with Genzyme. This milestone payment was fully recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2014. On April 15, 2014 the first U.S. commercial sale of MONOVISC was made by our commercial partner, Mitek. Under the terms of the Mitek MONOVISC Agreement, the Company earned and collected a milestone payment of $5 million, which was fully recognized as revenue in the second quarter of 2014. On November 10, 2014, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") assigned a unique Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System ("HCPCS") code, or J-Code, to MONOVISC. The issuance of this code by CMS set national Medicare reimbursement rates for the product. The new J-Code became effective on January 1, 2015. As a result of CMS assigning the J-Code, the Company collected a milestone payment of $5,000,000, which was fully recognized as revenue in the fourth quarter of 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recognized a total of $29,652,778 in milestone revenue related to MONOVISC. The Company had current and long-term deferred revenue of $126,702 at December 31, 2014, which consisted primarily of customer prepayments. Current and long term deferred revenue was $2,235,374 at December 31, 2013, and consisted primarily of the unamortized upfront payment from the Mitek MONOVISC Agreement.
