Substantial Doubt about Going Concern [Text Block] | Note 3 - Liquidity and Going Concern The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2018 of approximately $85.5 million and a net loss of approximately $1.8 million and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $1 million for the three months then ended. In addition, the Company has not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated in the foreseeable future. Since May 2005, the Company has been engaged exclusively in research and development activities focused on developing targeted antiviral drugs. The Company has not yet commenced any product commercialization. Such losses are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and until such time, if ever, as the Company is able to attain sales levels sufficient to support its operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or maintain profitability in the future. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents of approximately $6.1 million. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management adjusted its planned expenditures, activities, and programs, in accordance with budgetary constraints and in accordance with its expectations of obtaining additional financing. The Company has made several adjustments to its past expenditures in the ensuing annual budget, eliminating several expenses including a reduction in workforce and consultants to the extent feasible without affecting its program of drug development. In addition, the Company has focused its efforts primarily on a single lead program to minimize cost outlays, namely taking the shingles drug candidate against VZV into human clinical trials. Management’s budget indicates that these changes have freed up sufficient funds to allow for the ensuing costs of the external advanced IND-enabling studies of this drug candidate. Management has considered several options for obtaining additional funds that will be needed for future human clinical trials and to obtain the additional license from TheraCour for VZV and the remaining human herpes viruses. The Company is also evaluating the possibility of obtaining a mortgage on its fully owned cGMP-capable laboratory facility in Shelton, CT, in order to free up a portion of the fixed capital for usage as liquid working capital. In addition, the Company believes that it has several important milestones that it will be achieving in the ensuing year. Management believes that as it achieves these milestones, the Company would experience substantial improvement in the liquidity of the Company’s stock, and would significantly improve the Company’s ability to raise funds on the public markets at terms that may be substantially superior to the terms we are offered at present. Management believes that as a result of the management plan, the Company’s existing resources and access to the capital markets will be sufficient to fund the Company’s planned operations and expenditures through November 2019. However, the Company cannot provide assurance that its plans will not change or that changed circumstances will not result in the depletion of its capital resources more rapidly than it currently anticipates. The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of such unidentified uncertainties. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
