BUSINESS DESCRIPTION [Abstract] |
BUSINESS DESCRIPTION | 1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Business Description. Precipio, Inc., and its subsidiaries, (collectively, “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “Precipio”) is a cancer diagnostics company providing diagnostic products and services to the oncology market. We have built and continue to develop a platform designed to eradicate the problem of misdiagnosis by harnessing the intellect, expertise and technologies developed within academic institutions, and delivering quality diagnostic information to physicians and their patients worldwide. We operate a cancer diagnostic laboratory located in New Haven, Connecticut and have partnered with various academic institutions to capture the expertise, experience and technologies developed within academia to provide a better standard of cancer diagnostics and aim to solve the growing problem of cancer misdiagnosis. We also operate a research and development facility in Omaha, Nebraska which focuses on development of various technologies, among them IV-Cell, HemeScreen and ICE-COLD-PCR, or ICP, the patented technology described further below, which we exclusively licensed from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc., or Dana-Farber, at Harvard University. The research and development center focuses on the development of these technologies, which we believe will enable us to commercialize these and other technologies developed with our current and future academic partners. The facility in Omaha was also recently certified as a CLIA and CAP facility, and we have begun bringing in house several molecular tests that the Company had previously referred out to other laboratories. Our platform also connects patients, physicians and diagnostic experts residing within academic institutions. Going Concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and has used cash in its operating activities for the past several years. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $3.2 million, negative working capital of $5.0 million and net cash used in operating activities of $1.6 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q is dependent upon a combination of achieving its business plan, including generating additional revenue and avoiding potential business disruption due to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and raising additional financing to meet its debt obligations and paying liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan:
| · |  | On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into a second purchase agreement (the “LP 2020 Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of common stock of the Company (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement. The extent we rely on Lincoln Park as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have already received $0.3 million from the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement from the sale of 500,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park from April 1, 2020 through the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q, leaving the Company an additional $9.7 million to draw upon in the coming year; and
| · |  | The Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 on March 27, 2020, as amended on April 9, 2020, to register an indeterminate number of shares of common stock and preferred stock, such indeterminate principal amount of debt securities and such indeterminate number of warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or debt securities as shall have an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $50 million. This registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 13, 2020 and allows the Company, from time to time, to offer up to $50 million of any combination of the securities described in the Form S-3 in one or more offerings. In order for the Company to utilize the effective S-3, it will have to file subsequent prospectus supplement(s) with regard to the securities it will offer, as applicable from time to time. As of the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q, no subsequent prospectus supplements to this effect have been filed by the Company.
Notwithstanding the aforementioned circumstances, there remains substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives summarized above in order to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report Form 10‑Q. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern as a result of the outcome of this uncertainty.
