1.     DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN

 

Organization and Basis of Presentation

ThermoGenesis Holdings, Inc. (“ThermoGenesis Holdings,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us”) develops, commercializes and markets a range of automated technologies for CAR-T and other cell-based therapies. The Company currently markets a full suite of solutions for automated clinical biobanking, point-of-care applications, and automation for immuno-oncology, including its semi-automated, functionally closed CAR-TXpress™ platform, which streamlines the manufacturing process for the emerging CAR-T immunotherapy market. The Company was founded in 1986 and is registered in the State of Delaware and headquartered in Rancho Cordova, CA.

 

The Company previously had two reportable segments, a Device Segment and Clinical Development Segment. Due to the winding down of the Clinical Development Segment in 2019, the Company no longer has any material revenues or expenses in that segment. As a result, the Company’s chief operating decision maker no longer reviews unconsolidated operating results. The Company will no longer report in two segments. The Company provides the AutoXpress^® and BioArchive^® platforms for automated clinical bio-banking, PXP^® platform for point-of-care cell-based therapies and CAR-TXpress™ platform under development for bio-manufacturing for immuno-oncology applications. The Company and its subsidiaries currently manufactures and markets the following products:

 

For Clinical Bio-Banking Applications:

●

AXP® Automated Cell Separation System – an automated, fully closed cell separation system for isolating and retrieving stem and progenitor cells from umbilical cord blood.

 

●

BioArchive® Automated Cryopreservation System – an automated, robotic, liquid nitrogen controlled-rate-freezing and cryogenic storage system for cord blood samples and cell therapeutic products used in clinical applications.

 

For Point-of-Care Applications:

●

PXP® Point-of-Care System – an automated, fully closed, sterile system allows for the rapid, automated processing of autologous peripheral blood or bone marrow aspirate derived stem cells at the point-of-care, such as surgical centers or clinics.

 

For Large Scale Cell Processing and Biomanufacturing:

●

X-Series® Products: X-Lab® for cell isolation, X-Wash® System for cell washing and reformulation, X-Mini® for high efficiency small scale cell purification, and X-BACS™ System under development for large scale cell purification using our proprietary buoyance-activated cell sorting (BACS) technology.

 

●

CAR-TXpress™ Platform – a modular designed, functionally closed platform that addresses the critical unmet need for large scale cellular processing and chemistry, manufacturing and controls (“CMC”) needs for manufacturing chimeric antigen receptor (“CAR”) T cell therapies. CAR-TXpress Bio, Inc. (“CARTXpress Bio”) is owned and developed through a subsidiary in which we own 80% of the equity interest.

 

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company entered into a reorganization of the business and equity ownership of its majority-owned ThermoGenesis Corp. subsidiary. Pursuant to the reorganization, the assets acquired by ThermoGenesis Corp. from SynGen Inc. in July 2017 were contributed to a newly formed Delaware subsidiary of ThermoGenesis Corp., CARTXpress Bio, and the 20% interest in ThermoGenesis Corp. held by a third party was exchanged for 20% interest in CARTXpress Bio. As a result, the Company holds an 80% equity interest in CARTXpress Bio and the Company has become the owner of 100% of ThermoGenesis Corp. The purpose of the reorganization was to allow CARTXpress Bio to focus on the development and commercialization of the newly launched CARTXpress Bio cellular manufacturing platform.

 

In the reorganization, the Company reacquired the non-controlling interest shares in ThermoGenesis Corp., which had an accumulated deficit of $1,711,000, in exchange for 20% equity interest in the newly formed subsidiary, CARTXpress Bio, which amounted to approximately $1,100,000. The total amount of $2,843,000 related to the reorganization of subsidiary and the related increase in non-controlling interest was offset by a charge to additional paid in capital in stockholders’ equity.

 

On November 26, 2019 the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with HealthBanks Biotech Inc. (“HealthBanks”), an affiliate of the Boyalife Group, to form a new company called ImmuneCyte, Inc. (“ImmuneCyte”) to commercialize the Company’s proprietary cell processing platform, CAR-TXpress™, for use in immune cell banking as well as for cell-based contract development and manufacturing services (CMO/CDMO). Under the terms of the JV Agreement, ImmuneCyte was initially owned 80% by HealthBanks and 20% by the Company. The Company currently owns 18.79% of the equity of ImmuneCyte.

 

ThermoGenesis Holdings is an affiliate of the Boyalife Group, a global diversified life science holding company that focuses on stem cell technology and cell-based therapeutics.

 

Reverse Stock Split

On June 4, 2019, the Company effected a one (1) for ten (10) reverse split of its issued and outstanding common stock. The total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance by the Company of 350,000,000 shares did not change in connection with the reverse stock split. All historical share amounts disclosed herein have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse split and subsequent share exchange.

 

Going Concern

The Company has a Revolving Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Boyalife Asset Holding II, Inc. (Refer to Note 3), allowing the Company to borrow up to $10,000,000 in principal amount outstanding at any time. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had drawn down the full amount available under the Credit Agreement and had an outstanding balance of $10,000,000. Boyalife Asset Holding II, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyalife Group Inc., which is owned and controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors.

 

On April 21, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note and received a loan (collectively, the “PPP Loan”) from Comerica Bank (“Comerica”) under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The Company received net proceeds of $646,000 from the PPP Loan. The current portion of the PPP loan is $287,000 and the noncurrent portion is $359,000. The term of the PPP Loan is two years with an interest rate of 1.00% per annum, which shall be deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. Payments of interest and principal commence November 1, 2020. Each monthly payment shall be in the amount which would fully amortize the principal balance outstanding under the PPP Loan. Pursuant to the terms of the CARES Act, the proceeds of the PPP Loan may be used for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs. The promissory note of the PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the promissory note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in a claim for the immediate repayment of the amount outstanding under the PPP Loan.

 

 

At June 30, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6,984,000 and working capital of $8,059,000. The Company has incurred recurring operating losses and as of June 30, 2020 had an accumulated deficit of $247,971,000. These recurring losses raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the filing of this report. The Company may need to raise additional capital to grow its business, fund operating expenses and make interest payments. The Company’s ability to fund its cash needs is subject to various risks, many of which are beyond its control. The Company may seek additional funding through debt borrowings, sales of debt or equity securities or strategic partnerships. The Company cannot guarantee that such funding will be available on a timely basis, in needed quantities or on terms favorable to the Company, if at all.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ThermoGenesis Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ThermoGenesis Corp. and TotipotentRX Cell Therapy, Pvt. Ltd and ThermoGenesis Corp’s majority-owned subsidiary, CARTXpress Bio. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Non-controlling Interests

The 20% ownership interest of CARTXpress Bio that is not owned by ThermoGenesis Holdings is accounted for as a non-controlling interest as the Company has an 80% ownership interest in CARTXpress Bio. Earnings or losses attributable to other stockholders of a consolidated affiliated company are classified separately as "non-controlling interest" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests reflects only its share of the after-tax earnings or losses of an affiliated company. The Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets reflect non-controlling interests within the equity section.

 

Interim Reporting

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and regulations and accounting principles applicable for interim periods. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Events subsequent to the balance sheet date have been evaluated for inclusion in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements through the date of issuance. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in ThermoGenesis Holdings’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

 

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting of Income Taxes,” which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company doesn’t expect the adoption of the standard to have a material impact.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”).” The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (“CECL”), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses and additional disclosures related to credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual period beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. We expect that the impact of adoption will not have a material impact.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

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.” This ASU eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of its disclosure framework project. The standard was adopted and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized based on the five-step process outlined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606.

 

The following tables summarize the revenues by product line:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Contract Balances

Generally, all sales are contract sales (with either an underlying contract or purchase order). The Company does not have any material contract assets. When invoicing occurs prior to revenue recognition, a contract liability is recorded (as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheet). Revenues recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 that were included in the beginning balance of deferred revenue were $144,000 and $432,000, respectively. Short-term deferred revenues increased from $620,000 to $787,000 and long-term deferred revenues decreased from $1,901,000 to $1,739,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

 

Exclusivity Fee

On August 30, 2019, the Company entered into a Supply Agreement with Corning Incorporated (the “Supply Agreement”). The Supply Agreement has an initial term of five years with automatic two-year renewal terms, unless terminated by either party in accordance with the terms of the Supply Agreement (collectively, the “Term”). Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Company has granted to Corning exclusive worldwide distribution rights for substantially all X-Series^® products under the CAR-TXpress™ platform (the “Products”) manufactured by its subsidiary, ThermoGenesis Corp., for the duration of the Term, subject to certain geographical and other exceptions. As consideration for the exclusive worldwide distribution rights for the Products, Corning paid a $2,000,000 exclusivity fee, in addition to any amounts payable throughout the Term for the Products.

 

The Company performed an evaluation of the revenue recognition of the $2,000,000 fee under ASC 606. It determined that the $2,000,000 will be recognized over time, based on the term of the contract. It was determined that the most likely outcome is the agreement is extended for one additional two-year term after the initial five-year contract is complete. Consequently, the term to recognize the exclusivity fee is over seven years. The Company will allocate the upfront fee evenly to each daily performance obligation of providing exclusivity and recognize the revenue ratably over the seven-year period. As each day passes, the Company will recognize the portion of the exclusivity fee allocated to that day. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded revenue of $71,000 and $143,000, respectively, related to the exclusivity fee. The remaining balance of the $2,000,000 payment of $1,762,000 was recorded to deferred revenue, with $286,000 in short-term deferred revenue and $1,476,000 recorded in long-term deferred revenue.

 

 

Backlog of Remaining Customer Performance Obligations

The following table includes revenue expected to be recognized and recorded as sales in the future from the backlog of performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period.

 

 

Revenues are net of normal discounts. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in net revenues, while the related costs are included in cost of revenues.

 

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date.

 

The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short duration. The fair value of the Company’s derivative obligation liability is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy since the valuation model of the derivative obligation is based on unobservable inputs. The derivative obligation is not material to the financial statements of the Company. The impairment of goodwill and intangible assets is a non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurement.

 

Net Loss per Share

Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the pre-funded warrants. For the purpose of calculating basic net loss per share, the additional shares of common stock that are issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants have been included since the shares are issuable for a negligible consideration and have no vesting or other contingencies associated with them. As of June 30, 2020, all pre-funded warrants previously issued have been exercised and none are currently outstanding. The calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share is the same for all periods presented, as the effect of the potential common stock equivalents noted below is anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss position for all periods presented. Anti-dilutive securities consisted of the following at June 30:

 

___________

(1)

The unvested Series A warrants were subject to vesting based upon the amount of funds actually received by the Company in the second close of the August 2015 financing which never occurred. The warrants will remain outstanding but unvested until they expire in February 2021.

 

 

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications did not have an impact on net loss as previously reported.

 

3.     Related Party Transactions

 

HealthBanks Biotech (USA) Inc.

On November 26, 2019 the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with HealthBanks Biotech (USA) Inc. (the “JV Agreement”) to form a new company called ImmuneCyte, Inc. (“ImmuneCyte”) to commercialize the Company’s proprietary cell processing platform, CAR-TXpress™, for use in immune cell banking as well as for cell-based contract development and manufacturing services (CMO/CDMO). Under the terms of the JV Agreement, ImmuneCyte was initially owned 80% by HealthBanks Biotech and 20% by the Company. The Company currently owns 18.79% of the equity of ImmuneCyte. ImmuneCyte will be among the first immune cell banks in the U.S. and offer customers the ability to preserve younger, healthier and uncontaminated immune cells for future potential use in dendritic and chimeric antigen receptor (“CAR-T”) cell therapies in a GMP compliant processing environment. The Company’s principal contribution to ImmuneCyte was a supply agreement under which ImmuneCyte will have the exclusive right to purchase the Company’s proprietary cell processing equipment in the immune cell banking business and a non-exclusive right to purchase it for other cell-based contract development and manufacturing (“CMO/CDMO”) services at a price equal to 115% of the Company’s cost. The Company also contributed to ImmuneCyte intellectual property and trademarks relating to the Company’s clinical development assets, which were fully impaired by the Company in 2018 and had no book value. HealthBanks contributed to ImmuneCyte a paid-up, royalty free license to use its proprietary business management system, customer relationship management software, and laboratory information statement, and it will also make available a $1,000,000 unsecured, non-convertible line of credit to ImmuneCyte to provide initial operating capital. Healthbanks is a subsidiary of Boyalife Group, Inc. (USA), the owner of Boyalife Asset Holding II, Inc., which is the largest stockholder of the Company, and is owned by Dr. Xiaochun (Chris) Xu, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors.

 

In December 2019, ImmuneCyte closed a $3,000,000 equity investment with a private institution. The investor received 600,000 shares of Class A common stock at $5.00 per share, representing a 5.66% ownership in the joint venture.  As a result of this equity investment in ImmuneCyte, the Company’s equity in the joint venture is no longer subject to anti-dilution provisions.  After this investment, ImmuneCyte is owned 75.16% by HealthBanks, 18.79% by the Company and 6.05% by the private institution.

 

 

The Company initially determined that ImmuneCyte would be considered a variable interest entity, as a result of the significant influence the Company has over operations and its’ lack of sufficient equity at inception. After the additional investment of $3,000,000, ImmuneCyte’s equity at risk was considered sufficient and the Company determined it would no longer be classified as a variable interest entity. The Company’s investment in ImmuneCyte will be accounted for under the equity method based on management’s conclusion that the Company can exercise significant influence over ImmuneCyte via its equity interest and the related Supply Agreement. The Company recorded the investment initially at the value of the nonfinancial assets contributed of $28,000, which consisted of the book value of certain assets contributed at the time of formation.

 

The Company entered into a supply agreement with ImmuneCyte with an effective date of April 22, 2020.  Under the supply agreement, ImmuneCyte could sell a COVID antibody detection test kit under the name SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Antibody Fast Detection Kit (Colloidal Gold) to the Company.  The supply agreement has a term of one year from the effective date, thirty (30) day renewal terms and contains the Company’s standard supply contract provisions.  The Company purchased approximately $3,600,000 of kits from ImmuneCyte during the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  In August 2020, due to concerns over the consistency of performance of these kits, the Company voluntarily withdrew its application for an Emergency Use Authorization.  Accordingly, the Company determined that it was unlikely that it would be able to sell the remaining testing kits.  As a result, the Company recorded a reserve for the carrying value of these kits of approximately $3,600,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  In order to continue to pursue its strategy to sell COVID antibody detection test kits, the Company entered into a supply agreement with BioHit Healthcare (Hefei) Co., Ltd. for kits to be marketed under the ThermoGenesis brand.

 

In April 2020, ImmuneCyte purchased intellectual property for developing monoclonal antibody therapeutics for COVID-19. The intellectual property includes four fully human high-affinity monoclonal antibody drug candidates against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) and tools for screening and quantifying efficacy of such neutralizing antibodies. 

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a loss of $0 and $13,000, respectively, on its equity investment in ImmuneCyte as ImmuneCyte has recorded a cumulative loss since the Company made its investment.  At June 30, 2020, the value of the Company’s investment in ImmuneCyte will remain at $0.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, ImmuneCyte had net income (loss) of $375,000 and $(163,000), respectively.  As of June 30, 2020, its current assets were $4,047,000 and current liabilities were $885,000.

 

Convertible Promissory Note and Revolving Credit Agreement

In March 2017, ThermoGenesis Holdings entered into a Credit Agreement with Boyalife Investment Fund II, Inc., which later merged into Boyalife Asset Holding II, Inc. (the “Lender”). The Lender is a wholly owned subsidiary of Boyalife Group Inc., which is owned and controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors. The Credit Agreement and its subsequent amendments, grants to the Company the right to borrow up to $10,000,000 (the “Loan”) at any time prior to March 6, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). In February 2020, the Company and the Lender completed a series of transactions in which the Company completed a draw down for $1,869,000 and the Lender converted a total of $3,000,000 of the outstanding balance of the convertible note into an aggregate of 1,666,670 shares of our common stock in two conversions. As a result of the conversions, the Company recorded a $2,486,000 charge to interest expense for the unamortized portion of the beneficial conversion feature related to the unamortized portion of the beneficial conversion feature of outstanding principal balance that was converted. On April 28, 2020, the Company borrowed an additional $2,418,000 under the Loan. Immediately after that draw down, the outstanding principal balance under the Loan was $10,000,000 and accrued but unpaid interest was $580,000. The principal purpose of the draw down was to provide working capital to fund the Company’s purchase of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) IgM/IgG Antibody Fast Detection Kits from ImmuneCyte. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan was $10,000,000.

 

The Credit Agreement and the Convertible Promissory Note issued thereunder (the “Note”) provide that the principal and all accrued and unpaid interest under the Loan will be due and payable on the Maturity Date, with payments of interest-only due on the last day of each calendar year. The Loan bears interest at 22% per annum, simple interest. The Company has five business days after the Lender demands payment to pay the interest due before the Loan is considered in default. The Note can be prepaid in whole or in part by the Company at any time without penalty.

 

 

The Maturity Date of the Note is subject to acceleration at the option of the Lender upon customary events of default, which include; a breach of the Loan documents, termination of operations, or bankruptcy. The Lender’s obligation to make advances under the Loan is subject to the Company’s representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement continuing to be true at all times and there being no continuing event of default under the Note.

 

The Credit Agreement and Note were amended in April 2018. The amendment granted the Lender the right to convert, at any time, outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $16.10 per share and if the Company issues shares of Common Stock at a lower price per share, the conversion price of the Note is lowered to the reduced amount. The Company completed two transactions in 2018, lowering the conversion price to $1.80.

 

It was concluded that the conversion option of the draw down in February 2020 of $1,869,000 contained a beneficial conversion feature and the Company recorded a debt discount for the full amount in the quarter ended March 31, 2020. It was also concluded that the conversion option of the draw down in April 2020 of $2,418,000 contained a beneficial conversion feature and the Company recorded a debt discount for the full amount in the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Such discount represented the fair value of the incremental shares up to the proceeds received from the convertible notes. The Company amortized $729,000 and $1,275,000 of debt discount to interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $586,000 and $1,172,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an interest payable balance of $957,000 as compared to $1,869,000 at December 31, 2019 related to the Note.

 

Distributor Agreement

On August 21, 2017, ThermoGenesis Corp. entered into an International Distributor Agreement with Boyalife W.S.N. Under the terms of the agreement, Boyalife W.S.N. was granted the exclusive right, subject to existing distributors and customers (if any), to develop, sell to, and service a customer base for ThermoGenesis Corp’s AXP^® AutoXpress System and BioArchive^® System in the People’s Republic of China (excluding Hong Kong and Taiwan), Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines (the “Territories”). Boyalife W.S.N. is related to our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors, and an affiliate of Boyalife (Hong Kong) Limited. Boyalife W.S.N,’s rights under the agreement include the exclusive right to distribute AXP^® Disposable Blood Processing Sets and use rights to the AXP^® AutoXpress System, BioArchive^® System and other accessories used for the processing of stem cells from cord blood in the Territories. Boyalife W.S.N. is also appointed as the exclusive service provider to provide repairs and preventative maintenance to ThermoGenesis Corp. products in the Territories.

 

The term of the agreement is for three years with ThermoGenesis Corp. having the right to renew the agreement for successive two-year periods at its option. However, ThermoGenesis Corp. has the right to terminate the agreement early if Boyalife W.S.N. fails to meet specified minimum purchase requirements.

 

Revenues

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded no revenue and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded $315,000 and $581,000, respectively, of revenues from Boyalife related to the aforementioned distributor agreement.

 

 

 

4.     CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

On January 29, 2019, the Company agreed to issue and sell an unsecured note payable to an accredited investor (the “Accredited Investor”) for an aggregate of $800,000 face value (the “January 2019 Note”) that, after six months, is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of (a) $1.80 per share or (2) 90% of the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date of conversion (subject to a floor conversion price of $0.50).

The January 2019 Note bears interest at the rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum and is payable quarterly in arrears. Unless sooner converted in the manner described below, all principal under the January 2019 Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereupon, will be due and payable eighteen (18) months from the date of the issuance of the January 2019 Note. The January 2019 Note may be prepaid without penalty at any time after it becomes convertible (at which time the holder will have the right to convert it before prepayment thereof).

 

On the date that is six months after the issuance of the January 2019 Note, and for so long thereafter as any principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the January 2019 Note remains outstanding, the holder of the January 2019 Note may convert such holder’s January 2019 Note, in whole or in part, into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to (i) the principal amount being converted, together with any accrued or unpaid interest thereon, divided by (ii) the conversion price in effect at the time of conversion. The January 2019 Note has customary conversion blockers at 4.99% and 9.99% unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and the holder. It was concluded that the conversion option was beneficial. Accordingly, the Company recorded a debt discount in the amount of $800,000, upon stockholder approval of the conversion feature, which occurred on May 30, 2019. The discount represented the fair value of the incremental shares up to the proceeds received from the convertible note.

 

On July 23, 2019, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the January 2019 Note (“Amended Note”). Under the terms of the amendment, the maturity date of the January 2019 Note was extended from July 29, 2020 to July 31, 2022. All other terms of the January 2019 Note remain the same. The Amended Note was accounted for as an extinguishment of the January 2019 Note as the change in the fair value of the embedded conversion option featured in the January 2019 Note immediately before and after the amendment exceeded 10% of the carrying amount of the January 2019 Note. Accordingly, the Company recorded a loss on the constructive extinguishment of this debt in the amount of $840,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The fair value of the Amended Note, which amounted to $1,473,000 was recorded as a liability. The Company also evaluated the conversion option embedded in the Amended Note and determined it was beneficial. Accordingly, the Company recorded a debt discount in the amount of $556,000 on the Amended Note for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company amortized $77,000 of the debt discount for the January 2019 Note to interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of the Amended Note.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the holder converted the remainder of the face value of the note into shares of common stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, $369,000 was converted into 204,445 shares of common stock. Additionally, the unamortized premium for the portion of the note that was converted of $46,000 was recorded to interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

On July 23, 2019, the Company entered into a private placement with the Accredited Investor, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to such investor an unsecured convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “July 2019 Note”). After six months and subject to the receipt of stockholder approval of the conversion feature of the July 2019 Note, such note is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of (a) $1.80 per share or (b) 90% of the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date of conversion (subject to a floor conversion price of $0.50). The July 2019 Note bears interest at the rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum and is payable quarterly in arrears. Unless sooner converted in the manner described below, all principal under the July 2019 Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereupon, will be due and payable three years from the date of the issuance on July 31, 2022.

 

The July 2019 Note may be prepaid without penalty at any time after it becomes convertible (at which time the holder will have the right to convert it before prepayment thereof). On the date that is six months after the issuance of the July 2019 Note, the holder may convert the July 2019 Note, in whole or in part, into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to (i) the principal amount being converted, together with any accrued or unpaid interest thereon, divided by (ii) the conversion price in effect at the time of conversion. The Company had accounted for the July 2019 Note as a debt instrument until the conversion feature was approved by the Company’s stockholders. Accordingly, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $694,000, upon stockholder approval of the conversion feature, which occurred on June 4, 2020. The discount represented the fair value of the incremental shares up to the proceeds received from the convertible note.

 

 

5.     LEASES

 

The Company leases the Rancho Cordova, California and Gurgaon, India facilities pursuant to operating leases. The Rancho Cordova lease expires in May 2024. The Gurgaon lease expires in September 2023; however, either party can terminate after September 2019 with three months’ notice. As such, it was accounted for as a short-term lease.

 

Operating Leases

Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, we use the Company’s cost of capital based on existing debt instruments. Our material leases typically contain rent escalations over the lease term. We recognize expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The following summarizes the Company’s operating leases:

 

 

Maturities of lease liabilities by year for our operating leases are as follows:

 

 

Statement of Cash Flows 

In January 2019, the Company signed a new amendment to its lease for office space at its corporate headquarters in Rancho Cordova, CA. The amendment was accounted for as a modification and resulted in a right-of-use asset of $966,000 being recognized as a non-cash addition on the date of the amendment. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $149,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and is included in cash flows from operating activities.

 

Operating Lease Costs

Operating lease costs were $105,000 and $208,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These costs are primarily related to long-term operating leases, but also include immaterial amounts for variable lease costs and short-term leases with terms greater than 30 days.

 

 

Finance Leases

Finance leases are included in equipment and other current and non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The amortization and interest expense are included in general and administrative expense and interest expense, respectively on the statement of operations. These leases are not and were not material for the three and six months ended of June 30, 2020.

 

6.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Financial Covenants 

Effective March 16, 2020, the Company and CBR Systems, Inc. (“CBR”) entered into a Manufacturing and Supply Amending Agreement #1 (the “Amendment”). The Amendment amends the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement entered into on May 15, 2017 by the Company and CBR (the “Original Agreement”). The Amendment, among other things, amends the Original Agreement by reducing from $2.0 million to $1.0 million the required amount of cash and short-term investments, net of debt or borrowed funds due in one year or less, that the Company and must have on hand at the end of any month to avoid being in default under the Original Agreement.

 

The Company was in compliance with this financial covenant as of June 30, 2020.

 

Warranty

The Company offers a warranty on all of its non-disposable products of one to two years. The Company warrants disposable products through their expiration date. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

 

The warranty liability is included in other current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The change in the warranty liability for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is summarized in the following table:

 

 

Contingencies and Restricted Cash

In fiscal 2016, the Company signed an engagement letter with a strategic consulting firm (“Mavericks”). Included in the engagement letter was a success fee due upon the successful conclusion of certain transactions. On May 4, 2017, a lawsuit was filed in California Superior Court against the Company and its Chief Executive Officer by the consulting firm, which argued that it was owed a transaction fee of $1,000,000 under the terms of the engagement letter due to the conversion of the Boyalife debentures in August 2016. In October 2017, to streamline the case by providing for the dismissal of claims against the Company’s Chief Executive Officer based on alter ego theories and without acknowledging any liability, the Company deposited $1,000,000 with the Court, which was recorded as restricted cash. The trial completed in February 2020 with an adverse jury verdict in favor of Mavericks in the total amount of $1,000,000. As a result, the Company recorded in other current liabilities a $1,400,000 loss in general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2019. The loss includes the $1,000,000 transaction fee and an estimated $400,000 in interest due. The $1,000,000 deposited with the court will be used to settle the transaction fee. At the conclusion of the trial, no judgment had been entered as the parties were disputing whether the defense of equitable estoppel should bar entry of judgment and the proper pre-judgment interest start date. In April 2020, the Company received notice that equitable estoppel defense was denied by the Court. After that ruling, Mavericks and the Company reached agreement for the interest start date and the total amount of Mavericks’ trial-related expenses that must be reimbursed by the Company as result of the verdict. On May 1, 2020 the parties agreed that the Company would pay Mavericks $480,000, representing $369,000 for interest and $111,000 for trial-related expenses. Additionally, the Company agreed not to contest the jury verdict and allowing the Court to release the $1,000,000 cash bond deposited by the Company early in the litigation to Mavericks, effectively ending the case.

 

 

In the normal course of operations, the Company may have disagreements or disputes with customers, employees or vendors. Such potential disputes are seen by management as a normal part of business. As of June 30, 2020, except as disclosed, management believes any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operating results or cash flows.
