Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
BUSINESS COMBINATION | BUSINESS COMBINATION: On November 10, 2019, Menlo entered into the Merger Agreement with Foamix, and Merger Sub, a direct and wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary of Menlo. On March 9, 2020, the Merger was completed and Foamix is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The combined Company changed its name to VYNE in September 2020. On the Effective Date, each ordinary share of Foamix was exchanged for 0.5924 shares of common stock of Menlo. In addition, on the Effective Date, Foamix shareholders received one contingent stock right (a “CSR”) for each Foamix ordinary share held by them. The CSRs were issued pursuant to the Contingent Stock Rights Agreement (the “CSR Agreement”), dated as of March 9, 2020, by and between Menlo and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, and represented the non-transferable contractual right to receive shares of common stock of Menlo depending on the results of Menlo’s phase III clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of once daily oral serlopitant for the treatment of prurigo nodularis (the “Phase III PN Trials”). On April 6, 2020, the Company announced that each of Menlo’s Phase III PN Trials (study MTI-105 and study MTI-106) did not meet their respective primary endpoint of demonstrating statistically significant reduction in pruritus in patients treated with serlopitant compared to placebo based upon a 4-point improvement responder analysis. Accordingly, on April 6, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the CSR Agreement, each CSR was converted into 1.2082 additional shares of Menlo common stock, resulting in an effective Exchange Ratio in the Merger of 1.8006 shares of Menlo common stock for each Foamix ordinary share. The CSR conversion resulted in the issuance and delivery of 74,544,413 additional shares of Menlo common stock underlying the CSRs, adjusted retrospectively to 18,636,103 shares of common stock upon the reverse stock split effective February 12, 2021. Following the conversion of the CSRs, pre-Merger Foamix shareholders and pre-Merger Menlo stockholders owned approximately 82% and 18% of post-Merger Menlo, respectively, each calculated on a fully diluted basis. For accounting purposes, the Merger is treated as a “reverse acquisition” under U.S. GAAP and Foamix is considered the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, upon consummation of the Merger, the historical financial statements of Foamix became the Company’s historical financial statements, and the historical financial statements of Foamix are included in the comparative prior periods. Under reverse acquisition accounting, the U.S. dollar amount for common stock in the financial statements is based on the value and number of shares issued by Menlo (reflecting the legal structure of Menlo as the legal acquirer) on the Merger date plus subsequent shares issued by the Company. The amounts in additional paid-in capital represent that of Foamix and include the fair value of shares deemed for accounting purposes to have been issued by Foamix on the merger date and the fair value of the Menlo equity awards included in the purchase price calculation. The Foamix additional paid-in capital was also adjusted for the difference between the number of common stock and the historical number of shares of Foamix’s ordinary shares. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred transaction costs of approximately $11.7 million, which are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. This amount includes $8.1 million of severance benefits for employees terminated after the Effective Date. Purchase Price The following is the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) was transferred to effect the Merger:
(in thousands) | Total
Deemed (for accounting purposes only) issuance of Foamix shares to Menlo stockholders | $ | 123,757 |
Deemed (for accounting purposes only) conversion of Menlo equity awards | 7,322 |
Total consideration* | $ | 131,079 |
* This amount reflects total consideration prior to reduction in respect of the CSRs (which had a fair value of $19.6 million as of the Merger Date) that were issued to Foamix shareholders and that reduced the Menlo stockholders’ relative ownership in the combined company. If the effect of the CSRs is included, the total consideration deemed paid by Foamix, as the accounting acquirer, to Menlo stockholders and equity award holders in the Merger would be reduced to approximately $111.4 million, as shown in the purchase price allocation table below. Based on Foamix’s closing share price of $2.99 as of March 9, 2020, the Merger Consideration under reverse acquisition accounting was approximately $131.1 million, consisting of $123.8 million for the deemed (for accounting purposes only) issuance of 41.4 million Foamix shares assuming that no upwards adjustment was made to the Exchange Ratio relating to the CSR, and $7.3 million for the fair value of Menlo equity awards deemed (for accounting purposes only) to be converted into Foamix equity awards. The converted stock options represent the fair value of such options attributable to service prior to the Merger date using the Foamix closing share price of $2.99 as of March 9, 2020 as an input to the Black Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the options. Purchase Price Allocation The Company completed its analysis of the allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:
(in thousands) | March 9, 2020
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 38,641 |
Investment in marketable securities | 22,703 |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets | 1,581 |
In-process research and development | 49,800 |
Goodwill | 4,545 |
Total assets | 117,270 |
Current liabilities | (5,827) |
Total liabilities | (5,827) |
Estimated purchase price* | $ | 111,443 |
* Reflects reduction in the purchase price deemed paid to Menlo stockholders in the Merger on the assumption that the CSRs, in an aggregate value of $19.6 million, convert into additional shares of the combined company for the Foamix shareholders, thereby resulting in a lower percentage of the combined company’s outstanding shares being owned by Menlo stockholders following the Merger. Goodwill Goodwill is recorded with the acquisition of a business and is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred and the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. None of the Goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The purchase price of the transaction and the excess purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, are calculated as follows:
(in thousands) | March 9, 2020
Purchase price | $ | 111,443 |
Less: fair value of net assets acquired, including other identifiable intangibles | (106,898) |
Goodwill | $ | 4,545 |
On April 6, 2020, the Company announced that each of Menlo’s Phase III PN Trials (study MTI-105 and study MTI-106) did not meet their respective primary endpoint of demonstrating statistically significant reduction in pruritus in patients treated with serlopitant compared to placebo based upon a 4-point improvement responder analysis. The Company does not intend to further pursue the development of serlopitant. As such, the Company recorded a full impairment charge of $4.5 million related to goodwill in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2020. There were no impairment charges in the year ended December 31, 2021. In-Process Research and Development (“IPR&D") The IPR&D recognized relates to Menlo’s once-daily oral serlopitant for the treatment of pruritus (itch) associated with PN that has not reached technological feasibility as follows:
(in thousands) |  |
Intangible asset |  | Estimated Fair Value
Acquired indefinite life intangible assets* |  | $ | 49,800 |
Fair value of identified intangible assets |  | $ | 49,800 |
* Represents acquired IPR&D assets which are initially recognized at fair value and are classified as indefinite-lived assets until the successful completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. Accordingly, during the research and development period, these assets will not be amortized into earnings; instead these assets will be subject to periodic impairment testing. The fair value of IPR&D has been estimated utilizing a multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach, which reflects the present value of the projected cash flows that are expected to be generated, less charges representing the contribution of other assets to those cash flows that use projected cash flows with and without the intangible asset in place. On April 6, 2020, the Company announced that each of Menlo’s Phase III PN Trials (study MTI-105 and study MTI-106) did not meet their respective primary endpoint of demonstrating statistically significant reduction in pruritus in patients treated with serlopitant compared to placebo based upon a 4-point improvement responder analysis. The Company does not intend to further pursue the development of serlopitant. As such, the Company recorded a full impairment charge of $49.8 million related to the IPR&D asset in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2020. There were no impairment charges in the year ended December 31, 2021. CSR The CSR was issued pursuant to the CSR Agreement, dated as of March 9, 2020, by and between Menlo and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, and represented the non-transferable contractual right to receive shares of common stock of Menlo depending on the results of Menlo’s Phase III PN Trials. The Company recognized a liability of $19.6 million in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 9, 2020. The liability was measured at fair value and categorized as level 3 as of the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 805-31-25-5 and subsequently at each reporting date thereafter. The fair value of the CSR was estimated as the incremental value that Foamix would be able to achieve on a probability weighted basis assuming three different potential probabilities of the following scenarios: (a) serlopitant significance was achieved in both Phase III PN Trials (b) serlopitant significance was achieved in only one Phase III PN Trial and (c) serlopitant significance was not achieved or was not determined on or before May 31, 2020. On April 6, 2020, the Company announced that each of Menlo’s Phase III PN Trials (study MTI-105 and study MTI-106) did not meet their respective primary endpoint of demonstrating statistically significant reduction in pruritus in patients treated with serlopitant compared to placebo based upon a 4-point improvement responder analysis. Accordingly, on April 6, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the CSR Agreement, each CSR was converted into 1.2082 additional shares of Menlo common stock, resulting in an effective Exchange Ratio in the Merger of 1.8006 shares of Menlo common stock for each Foamix ordinary share. The CSR conversion resulted in the issuance and delivery of 74.5 million additional shares of Menlo common stock underlying the CSRs, adjusted retrospectively to 18.6 million shares of common stock upon the reverse stock split effective February 12, 2021. Following the conversion of the CSRs, pre-Merger Foamix shareholders and pre-Merger Menlo stockholders own approximately 82% and 18% of post-Merger Menlo, respectively, each calculated on a fully diluted basis. The conversion of the CSR also affected the Exchange Ratio of the pre-Merger Foamix equity awards and warrants outstanding as of March 9, 2020 and increased the awards available for grant under the Company's equity plan. The contingent consideration associated with the CSR was recognized and measured at fair value as of the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 805-30-25-5. An acquirer's obligation to pay contingent consideration should be classified as a liability or equity in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, and other applicable U.S. GAAP. The contingent consideration associated with the CSR was initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. The CSR was classified as a liability, as it was settled by issuing a variable number of the Company's common stock. On April 6, 2020, the Company recorded $84.7 million of expense in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss to remeasure the CSR liability in its consolidated balance sheet to its fair value of $104.4 million (calculated based on 74,544,413 shares issued, adjusted retrospectively to 18,636,103 shares of common stock upon the reverse stock split effective February 12, 2021, and a share price of $1.40 on April 6, 2020) and then settled in connection with the issuance of shares. Pro Forma The actual Menlo net loss included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2020 (for the period from March 9, 2020, the Effective Date, through December 31, 2020, which are not indicative of the results to be expected for a full year) and the supplemental unaudited pro forma revenue and net loss of the combined entity had the acquisition been completed on January 1, 2019.
