Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company adopted the following significant accounting policies in addition to those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Liability related to the sale of future royalties and related interest expense
The Company assesses the relevant accounting criteria under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 470, Debt (ASC 470) to determine whether the upfront payment received from the purchaser should be accounted for as debt or deferred income depending on the facts and circumstances. If the criteria in ASC 470 is met, the Company accounts for net proceeds from sales of its rights to receive future royalty payments as a liability that is amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the arrangement. The liability related to future royalties is presented net of unamortized issuance costs on the consolidated balance sheets. Interest expense on the liability related to future royalties is recognized using the effective interest rate method over the life of the arrangement. The Company calculates an effective interest rate which will amortize its related obligation to zero over the anticipated repayment period. The liability related to future royalties and the related interest expense are based on the Company’s current estimates of future royalties expected to be received over the life of the arrangement, which the Company determines by using internal sales projections and external information from market data sources, which are considered Level 3 inputs. The Company periodically assesses the expected payments and to the extent the Company’s estimates of future royalty payments are greater or less than previous estimates or the estimated timing of such payments is materially different than previous estimates, the Company will adjust the effective interest rate and recognize related non-cash interest expense on a prospective basis. Non-cash amortization is reflected as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
