Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Nature of Business

Nature of Business. Aytu BioScience, Inc. (“Aytu”, the “Company” or “we”) was incorporated as Rosewind Corporation on August 9, 2002 in the State of Colorado. Aytu was re-incorporated in the state of Delaware on June 8, 2015. Aytu is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on global commercialization of novel products addressing significant medical needs such as hypogonadism (low testosterone), cough and upper respiratory symptoms, insomnia, male infertility, various pediatric conditions and the Company plans to expand opportunistically into other therapeutic areas.

 

The Company is currently focused on commercialization of the following products (i) Natesto®, a testosterone replacement therapy, or TRT, (ii) Tuzistra® XR, a codeine–based antitussive, (iii) ZolpiMist™, a short-term insomnia treatment and (iv), MiOXSYS®, a novel in vitro diagnostic system for male infertility assessment. Additionally, the Company completed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Cerecor, Inc (“Cerecor”) on November 1, 2019, acquiring six products, (i) AcipHex® Sprinkle™, (ii) Cefaclor for Oral Suspension, (iii) Karbinal® ER, (iv) Flexichamber™, (v) Poly-Vi-Flor® and Tri-Vi-Flor™ (the “Pediatric Portfolio”) (see below and Note 2). The Company immediately began to include the acquired Pediatric Portfolio in its commercialization efforts.

 

In the future the Company will seek to acquire additional commercial-stage or near-market products, including existing products the Company believes can offer distinct clinical advantages and patient benefits over other marketed products. The management team’s prior experience has involved identifying both clinical-stage and commercial-stage assets that can be launched or re-launched to increase value, with a focused commercial infrastructure specializing in novel, niche products.

 

Financial Condition

Financial Condition. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $5.5 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. The Company’s operations have historically consumed cash and are expected to continue to require cash, but at a declining rate.

 

On November 1, 2019, the Company closed an asset acquisition with Cerecor, Inc. (“Cerecor”) whereby the Company acquired certain of Cerecor’s Portfolio of Pediatric Therapeutics (the “Pediatric Portfolio”) for $4.5 million in cash, approximately 9.8 million shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, the assumption of Cerecor’s financial and royalty obligations, which includes not more than $3.5 million of Medicaid rebates and products returns as they come due, and other assumed liabilities associated with the Pediatric Portfolio (see Note 2).

 

In addition, the Company has assumed obligations in connection with the Pediatric Portfolio acquisition due to an investor including fixed and variable payments. The Company assumed fixed monthly payments equal to $0.1 million from November 2019 through January 2021 plus $15 million due in January 2021. Monthly variable payments due to the same investor are equal to 15% of net revenue generated from a subset of the Product Portfolio, subject to an aggregate monthly minimum of $0.1 million, except for January 2020, when a one-time payment of $0.2 million is due. The variable payment obligation continues until the earlier of: (i) aggregate variable payments of approximately $9.5 million have been made, or (ii) February 12, 2026.

 

The Company expects to require capital beyond operating need to complete and integrate the Pediatric Portfolio acquisition and the merger with Innovus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Innovus”), approved by the shareholders of both companies on February 13, 2020, and expected to close February 14, 2020 (the “Merger”) (see below). Revenues for the three-months ended December 31, 2019 increased 77% compared to the three-months ended December 31, 2018, and revenues increased 100% and 14% for each of the years ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Revenue is expected to continue to increase long-term, allowing the Company to rely less on our existing cash and cash equivalents, and proceeds from financing transactions. Cash used in operations during the six-months ended December 31, 2019 was $9.1 million compared to $7.0 million for the six-months ended December 31, 2018, due primarily to the Company’s acquisition and integration of the Pediatric Portfolio, which consumed additional cash resources.

 

On October 11, 2019, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements (the “Purchase Agreement”) with two institutional investors (the “Investors”) providing for the issuance and sale by the Company (the “October 2019 Offering”) of $10.0 million of, (i) shares of the Company’s Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) which are convertible into shares of common stock (the “Conversion Shares”) and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) which are exercisable for shares of common stock (the “Warrant Shares”), which expire January 10, 2025, for a stated value of $1,000 per unit. The closing of the October 2019 offering occurred on October 16, 2019. The Warrants had an exercise price equal to $1.25 and contain a cashless exercise provision. This provision was dependent on (i) performance of the Company’s stock price between October 11, 2019 and the date of exercise of all, or a portion of the Warrants, and (ii) subject to shareholder approval of the October 2019 Offering, which was approved January 24, 2020. On January 27, 2020, 2.0 million cashless warrants were exercised to acquire 2.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The net proceeds that the Company received from the October 2019 Offering were approximately $9.3 million. The net proceeds received by the Company from the October 2019 Offering will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital.

  

As of the date of this Report, the Company expects its commercial costs for its current operation to increase modestly as the Company integrates the acquisition of the Pediatrics Portfolio and continues to focus on revenue growth through increasing product sales. The Company’s total asset position totaling $74.5 million plus the proceeds expected from ongoing product sales will be used to fund operations. The Company will access the capital markets to fund operations when needed, and to the extent it is required. The timing and amount of capital that may be raised is dependent on market conditions and the terms and conditions upon which investors would require to provide such capital. There is no guarantee that capital will be available on terms favorable to the Company and its stockholders, or at all. However, the Company has been successful in accessing the capital markets in the past and is confident in its ability to access the capital markets again, if needed. Since the Company does not have sufficient cash and cash equivalents on-hand as of December 31, 2019 to cover potential net cash outflows for the twelve months following the filing date of this Quarterly Report, ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) requires the Company to report that there exists an indication of substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As of the date of this report, the Company has inadequate capital resources to complete its near-term operating and transaction objectives. In anticipation of the cash outlays related to the merger, the Pediatric Portfolio acquisition, and funding the Company’s operations, the Company has taken the following steps to address its post-closing cash needs, including, but not limited to (i) engaging a placement agent to refinance the fixed obligation, and (ii) engaging in discussions with lenders to establish a debt facility to provide the Company with capital while considering other funding strategies. The Company will also require the investors that participated in the October PIPE to waive the financing prohibition which expires in April 2020. There is no guarantee that capital will be available on terms that the Company considers to be favorable. However, the Company has been successful in accessing the capital markets in the past and the Company is confident in its ability to access the capital markets again, if needed.

 

If the Company is unable to raise adequate capital in the future when it is required, the Company can adjust its operating plans to reduce the magnitude of the capital need under its existing operating plan. Some of the adjustments that could be made include delays of and reductions to commercial programs, reductions in headcount, narrowing the scope of the Company’s commercial plans, or reductions to its research and development programs. Without sufficient operating capital, the Company could be required to relinquish rights to products or renegotiate to maintain such rights on less favorable terms than it would otherwise choose. This may lead to impairment or other charges, which could materially affect the Company’s balance sheet and operating results.

 

The Pending Merger

The Pending Merger. The Company entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) between the Company and Innovus on September 12, 2019. The Merger was approved by the shareholders of both companies February 13, 2020 and is expected to close February 14, 2020.

 

Upon closing, the Merger will cause for the Company to retire all of the outstanding common stock of Innovus for an estimate of (i) up to approximately 3.7 million in shares of the Company’s common stock and, (ii) up to $16 million in milestone payments in the form of contingent value rights (CVRs) may be paid to Innovus shareholders in cash or stock over the next five years if certain revenue and profitability milestones are achieved. Innovus specializes in commercializing, licensing and developing safe and effective over-the-counter consumer health products and supplements. The Company anticipates that this transaction will formally close on February 14, 2020, subject to shareholder approval. The outstanding Innovus warrants with cash out rights will receive Aytu preferred stock and such warrants will be retired. The remaining outstanding Innovus warrants will retain the right to be exercised for merger consideration.

 

Nasdaq Listing Compliance

Nasdaq Listing Compliance. The Company’s common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. In order to maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, the Company must, amongst other requirements, maintain a stockholders’ equity balance of at least $2.5 million pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b). In that regard, on September 30, 2019, the Company’s stockholders’ equity totaled approximately $2.3 million, thereby potentially resulting in a stockholders’ equity deficiency upon the filing of the September 30, 2019 Form 10-Q. However, subsequent to September 30, 2019, the Company completed (i) the Offering with the Investors, raising approximately $9.3 million, net in equity financing (see Note 1), and (ii) the “Asset Purchase Agreement” in which the Company issued approximately 9.8 million shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock worth approximately $5.6 million, resulting in an increase in stockholders’ equity of approximately $14.8 million in the aggregate. Accordingly, as of the filing of this Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, the Company’s stockholders’ equity balance exceeds the minimum $2.5 million threshold and, therefore, the Company believes it is currently in compliance with all applicable Nasdaq Listing Requirements. No formal communication has been received from the Nasdaq Capital Markets indicating anything to the contrary.

Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02 – Topic 842 Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires that most leases be recognized on the financial statements, specifically the recognition of right-to-use assets and related lease liabilities, and enhanced disclosures about leasing arrangements. The objective is to provide improved transparency and comparability among organizations. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The standard requires using the modified retrospective transition method and apply ASU 2016-02 either at (i) latter of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements or commencement date of the lease, or (ii) the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company has elected to apply the standard at the beginning period of adoption, July 1, 2019 which resulted in no cumulative adjustment to retained earnings.

 

The Company has elected to apply the short-term scope exception for leases with terms of 12 months or less at the inception of the lease and will continue to recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis. As a result of the adoption, on July 1, 2019, the Company recognized a lease liability of approximately $0.4 million, which represented the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments using an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 8%. As of December 31, 2019, the Company recognized a right-to-use asset of approximately $0.4 million. Lease expense did not change materially as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.

 

Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2017-11”). In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11 — Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). Part I to ASU 2017-11 eliminates the requirement to consider “down round” features when determining whether certain equity-linked financial instruments or embedded features are indexed to an entity’s own stock. In addition, entities will have to make new disclosures for financial instruments with down round features and other terms that change conversion or exercise prices. Part I to ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018. The Company adopted this standard update as a result of the issuance of the Series F Preferred stock as a result of the October 2019 Offering.

 

Recently Accounting Pronouncements

 

Fair Value Measurements (“ASU 2018-03”). In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” The amendments in the standard apply to all entities that are required, under existing GAAP, to make disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. The standard is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.

 

The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of ASU 2018-13. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of ASU 2018-13 and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2018-13 will have on its financial statements, with the impact mostly related to certain assets acquired or liabilities assumed that comprise Level 3 inputs.

 

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” to require the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. However, in October 2019, the FASB approved deferral of the adoption date for smaller reporting companies for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Accordingly, the Company’s fiscal year of adoption will be the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, but the Company did not elect to early adopt. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.  

  

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
