Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue

(2) Revenue

 

The Company generates most of its revenue from license and royalty arrangements. At inception of each contract, the Company identifies the goods and services that have been promised to the customer and each of those that represent a distinct performance obligation, determines the transaction price including any variable consideration, allocates the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations and determines whether control transfers to the customer at a point in time or over time. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company reassesses its reserves for variable consideration at each reporting date and makes adjustments, if necessary, which may affect revenue and earnings in periods in which any such changes become known.

 

See Note 7 for a description of the Verity License Agreement. See Note 11 for a description of the agreement with Spriaso, a related party.

 

License Fees

 

For distinct license performance obligations, upfront license fees are recognized when the Company satisfies the underlying performance obligation. Performance obligations under these licenses, which consist of the right to use the Company’s proprietary technology, are satisfied at a point in time corresponding with delivery of the underlying technology rights to the licensee, which is generally upon transfer of the licensed technology/product to the customer. In addition, license arrangements may include contingent milestone payments, which are due following achievement by our licensee of specified sales or regulatory milestones and the licensee and/or Company will fulfill its performance obligation prior to achievement of these milestones. Because of the uncertainty of the milestone achievement, and/or the dependence on sales of our licensee, variable consideration for contingent milestones is fully constrained and is not recognized as revenue until the milestone is achieved by our licensee, to the extent collectability is reasonably certain.

 

Royalties

 

Royalties revenue consists of sales-based and minimum royalties earned under license agreements for our products. Sales-based royalties revenue represents variable consideration under license agreements and is recognized in the period a customer sells products incorporating the Company’s licensed technologies/products. The Company estimates sales-based royalties revenue earned but unpaid at each reporting period using information provided by the licensee. The Company’s license arrangements may also provide for minimum royalties, which the Company recognizes upon the satisfaction of the underlying performance obligation, which generally occurs with delivery of the underlying technology rights to the licensee. Sales-based and minimum royalties are generally due within 45 days after the end of each quarter in which they are earned.

 

Revenue Concentration

 

A major partner is considered to be one that comprises more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues.

The revenue recognized in 2024 was 99% from one major customer, Verity Pharma. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized a reversal of revenue relating of variable consideration of the Antares License Agreement of approximately $3.1 million due to the termination of the License Agreement. In addition, the Company recognized license revenue of $55,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was 100% from a related-party, Spriaso.
