Vyrex Corporation

(A Development Stage Enterprise)

Notes To Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring accruals) for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2004, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and for the period from inception through September 30, 2004. The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in Vyrex’s Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2004, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,377,793, a stockholders’ deficiency of $263,204 and negative working capital of $65,704. Due to the Company’s recurring losses and stockholders’ deficiency, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional operating capital, which may impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company continues to seek additional collaborative or other arrangements with larger pharmaceutical and nutraceutical companies, under which such companies would provide additional capital to the Company in exchange for exclusive or non-exclusive licenses or other rights to certain of the technologies and products the Company is developing. Competition for corporate partnering arrangements with major pharmaceutical and nutraceutical companies is intense, with a large number of biopharmaceutical companies attempting to arrive at such arrangements. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that an agreement will arise in a timely manner, or at all, or that any agreement that may be reached will successfully reduce the Company’s short-term or long-term funding requirements.

 

The Company’s major activities through September 30, 2004 have consisted of seeking additional licensing opportunities for its intellectual properties and joint ventures to market its nutraceutical products and initiating the research necessary to take its drug candidates forward into clinical trials. Currently, a major focus for the Company is the testing of its proprietary ProFlavone technology. ProFlavones are proprietary nutraceuticals being developed by the Company for cardiovascular, skeletal and cellular health. ProFlavones are novel delivery forms of isoflavones. Isoflavones are chemicals (phytochemicals) found in beans, particularly soy. Isoflavones are antioxidants and possess estrogenic activity (phytoestrogens) and are thought to have anti-atherogenic, anti-carcinogenic and anti-osteoporotic activities as well. Recently, some isoflavones have also been shown to be protective against ionizing radiation (radioprotectants). Radioprotectants have application in oncology, space travel, radiological terrorism and military scenarios. The Company has synthesized and is testing a number of its isoflavone prodrug forms covered under U.S. Patent Number 6,541613 and U.S. Patent Application 20030212009. A high priority for the Company is the

testing of its ProFlavones for radioprotective activity. On September 5, 2004 the Company announced that it was proceeding with its plans to use its antioxidant and prodrug technologies to develop radioprotective agents against nuclear/radiologic terrorism. The first such agent, GEN-VYX1-2004, has been synthesized, has undergone initial animal toxicity studies and found to be non-toxic. The Company continually works toward raising funds for outsourcing research and development on its novel technology, seeking additional collaborative partners through exclusive or non-exclusive licensing of its technology and continuing to work with its current partners to generate additional revenues based on existing licensing and royalty agreements. These activities have not generated any significant revenues; accordingly, the Company has been in the development stage since its inception. Successful completion of the Company’s development program and its transition, ultimately, to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining additional financing adequate to fulfill its research and development activities, and achieving a level of revenue adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these areas. To supplement its existing resources, the Company will require additional capital through the sale of debt or equity. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available on favorable terms, or at all, and if additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders is likely to result.

 

(2) Notes Payable

 

During March 2003, the Company obtained a note from a private investor to loan the Company $200,000 in the form of a convertible note at an interest rate of 10% per annum. Interest is paid quarterly with the principal due and payable at the end of the third year. The note is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The investor had the option to convert the principal amount into Vyrex common shares at a price of $0.25 during the first year, $0.50 the second year and $0.75 the third year. Further in connection with the Promissory Note, the investor was issued warrants, exercisable within three years from the date of issuance, entitling the investor to purchase Vyrex Corporation common shares in the amount of 100,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.11 per share. The warrants had a fair value of $6,000 as of the date of issuance; accordingly, the Company discounted the note by $6,000 which was added to additional paid-in capital. The Company is accreting the discount on a straight-line basis over the term of the note. The Company has recognized $1,500 additional interest expense related to the accretion of this debt discount for the period ended September 30, 2004. On August 24, 2004 the Company obtained an additional note from the same private investor in the amount of $7,500. The principal amount plus 10% interest is due and payable on February 24, 2005. As further consideration for the loan the Company agreed to amend the strike price terms of the right to convert the principal amount of the March 2003 note into Vyrex common shares from $0.50 to $0.25 the second year and from $0.75 to $0.50 the third year.

 

(3) Stock-Based Compensation

 

As explained in Note 8 in the Form 10-KSB, the Company accounts for stock options granted to employees based on their intrinsic values under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations”, and has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123”. Since the exercise price of all of the options granted by the Company to its employees has been equal to or greater than fair value, the Company has not recognized any earned or unearned compensation costs in its financial statements in connection with those options. The Company’s historical net loss and basic net loss per share, and pro forma net loss and basic net loss per share, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 assuming compensation cost had been determined based on the fair value of all options at the respective dates of grant determined using a pricing model consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123 are set forth below:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

This report on Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three months ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003

 

Licensing and royalty revenue remained the same at $23,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. Royalty revenue is comprised of our boron compound licensed by the FutureCeuticals Division of Van Drunen Farms.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased $8,000 to $15,000 in the current period, compared to $23,000 for the same period in 2003. Third quarter expenses were limited to maintenance of patents and general office expenses such as accounting fees, utility expenses, telephone expenses, rent and postage. Research and development expenses increased $2,000 to $11,000 in the current period, compared to $9,000 for the same period in 2003. Research and development expenses consisted of royalty expenses for our Boron patent and for purchased services.

 

Net loss decreased $7,000 to $9,000 in the current period, compared to $16,000 for the same period during 2003. Basic and diluted loss per share remained the same at $0.00 in the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003.

 

Nine months ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003

 

Royalty revenue remained the same at $68,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. Royalty revenue for this period was comprised of our boron compound licensed by the FutureCeuticals Division of Van Drunen Farms. Royalty revenue for carnochrome is no longer received due to the March 2004 termination elected by FutureCeuticals based on the terms of the license agreement.

General and administrative expenses decreased $29,000 to $80,000 in the current period, compared to $109,000 for the same period in 2003. Expenses were limited to maintenance of patents and general office expenses such as accounting fees, utility expenses, telephone expenses, rent and postage. Research and development expenses increased $3,000 to $15,000 in the current period, compared to $12,000 for the same period in 2003. Research and development expenses consisted of royalty expenses for our Boron patent and for purchased services.

 

Net loss decreased $25,000 to $44,000 in the current period compared to $69,000 for the same period during 2003. Basic and diluted loss per share remained the same at $0.01 in the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company has financed its operations since inception solely through the sales of debt and equity securities. As of September 30, 2004, the Company had negative working capital of $66,000. Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $17,000, compared to net cash used by operating activities of $24,000 for the same period during 2003.

 

There can be no assurance that any further revenues will be realized in 2004 or that they will be significant and therefore without additional financing the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company is actively pursuing collaborations with potential partners in both the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical divisions with the objective of raising financing to enable the Company to continue operations. At September 30, 2004, the Company does not have any commitments for additional financing and has no prospects for merger or acquisition. The Company does not have any lease or other commitments. The Company does not have an existing bank line of credit or other form of revolving or renewable credit facility. There can be no assurance the Company will generate significant revenues during 2004 to continue its operations, or that funds will be available through the public or private markets.

 

The Company believes but cannot assure that its current cash reserves and other resources will fund the business through at least September 30, 2005. The Company does not anticipate having significant revenues in the foreseeable future and will likely be required to raise additional funds to continue operations. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available.

 

Item 3. Controls and Procedures

 

As of September 30, 2004, the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company, required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings. There were no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation.
