Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Organization | Organization Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. (the "Company," "Arcadia" or "management"), was incorporated in Arizona in 2002 and maintains its headquarters in Dallas, Texas, with additional office space in Davis, California, and additional facilities in American Falls, Idaho. The Company was reincorporated in Delaware in March 2015. The Company is a producer and marketer of innovative, plant-based food and beverage products. Its history as a leader in science-based approaches to developing high-value crop improvements, as well as nutritionally enhanced food ingredients, has laid the foundation for its path forward. The Company used advanced breeding techniques to develop these proprietary innovations which are now being commercialized through the sales of seed and grain, as well as food ingredients and products. The acquisition of the assets of Live Zola, LLC (“Zola”) added coconut water to the Company's portfolio of products. In May 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Arcadia Wellness, LLC (“Arcadia Wellness” or “AW”) acquired the businesses of Eko, Lief, and Zola. The acquisition included consumer CBD brands like Soul Spring™, a CBD-infused botanical therapy brand in the natural category, Saavy Naturals™, a line of natural body care products and ProVault™, a CBD-infused sports performance formula made with natural ingredients, providing effective support and recovery for athletes. Also included in the purchase is Zola, a coconut water sourced exclusively with sustainably grown coconuts from Thailand. In July 2022, the Company licensed Saavy Naturals™ to Radiance Beauty and Wellness, Inc. ("Radiance Beauty"). In July 2023, the Company announced its decision to exit the remaining body care brands, ProVault and Soul Spring. In August 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Legacy Ventures Hawaii, LLC (“Legacy,” see Note 6) to grow, extract, and sell hemp products. The partnership Archipelago Ventures Hawaii, LLC (“Archipelago”), combines the Company’s extensive genetic expertise and resources with Legacy’s experience in hemp extraction and sales. In October 2021, Arcadia and Legacy mutually agreed to wind down the cultivation activities of Archipelago, due to regulatory challenges and a saturated hemp market. In February 2012, the Company formed Verdeca, which was equally owned with Bioceres. Verdeca was formed to develop and deregulate soybean varieties using both partners’ agricultural technologies. In November 2020, Arcadia sold its membership interest in Verdeca to Bioceres in a transaction in which Arcadia received cash, shares of Bioceres stock and a royalty stream of up to $10.0 million on sales of Haab 4 soybeans (“HB4”). An additional $2.0 million in cash is to be paid upon achievement by Verdeca of reaching commercial plantings of at least 200,000 hectares of HB4 or China approving the HB4 soybean trait for “food and feed”. During 2022, Bioceres received China's approval of the HB4 soybean trait and as a result, Arcadia recorded license revenue of $862,000 and a gain on sale of Verdeca of $1.1 million on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company received the full payment of $2.0 million as of June 30, 2023.
Reverse Stock Split | Reverse Stock Split In February 2023, the Company’s board of directors approved a reverse split of 40:1 on the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. On F ebruary 15, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the certificate of amendment, which the Company filed on February 27, 2023 with the Secretary of State of Delaware to effect the reverse split on March 1, 2023. As a result of the reverse stock split, additional shares of common stock of 19,118 were issued in lieu of fractional shares. All issued and outstanding common stock, options to purchase common stock and per share amounts contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and are in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Arcadia Wellness, and Archipelago. The Company uses a qualitative approach in assessing the consolidation requirement for variable interest entities ("VIEs"). This approach focuses on determining whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and whether the Company has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. For all periods presented, the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of Archipelago, a joint venture, as it has a controlling interest in Archipelago. Accordingly, the Company consolidates Archipelago in the condensed consolidated financial statements after eliminating intercompany transactions. For consolidated joint ventures, the non-controlling partner’s share of the assets, liabilities and operations of the joint venture is included in non-controlling interests as equity of the Company. The non-controlling partner’s interest is generally computed as the joint venture partner’s ownership percentage of Archipelago. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of $20,000 and $142,000 is recorded as an adjustment to net loss to arrive at net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. There was minimal activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The non-controlling partner’s equity interests are presented as non-controlling interests on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The information included in these condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023.
Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern | Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities during the normal course of business. Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through equity and debt financings. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $266.4 million, cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 million and short-term investments of $5.0 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $8.6 million and net cash used in operations of $8.3 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, the Company had net losses of $15.6 million and net cash used in operations of $14.0 million. With cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 million and short-term investments of $5.0 million as of June 30, 2023, the Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will not be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 12-18 months from the issuance date of these financial statements, and thus raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company may seek to raise additional funds through debt or equity financings. The Company may also consider entering into additional partner arrangements. The sale of additional equity would result in dilution to the Company’s stockholders. The incurrence of debt would result in debt service obligations, and the instruments governing such debt could provide for additional operating and financing covenants that would restrict operations. If the Company requires additional funds and is unable to secure adequate additional funding at terms agreeable to the Company, the Company may be forced to reduce spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets, or suspend or curtail planned product launches. Any of these actions could materially harm the business, results of operations and financial condition.
