Liquidity and Financial Condition

The Company reported a net loss of $7,252,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company’s accumulated deficit amounted to $149,465,000 and $142,213,000, respectively. The Company had working capital of $8,346,000 and $7,066,000 as of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively. The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and may need to raise additional capital to pursue its product development initiatives, penetrate markets for the sale of its products and continue as a going concern.

 

Pursuant to an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement with MLV & Co. LLC dated April 2, 2014, the Company may issue and sell shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $9,159,000 from time to time through MLV acting as the Company’s sales agent. During the nine months ended December 31, 2015, the Company sold 2,077,338 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $3,055,000 and net proceeds of $2,949,000 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. Sales subsequent to December 31, 2015 are disclosed in Note 12.

 

Management believes that the Company has access to additional capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, the Company cannot provide any assurance that other new financings will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if needed. If the economic climate in the U.S. deteriorates, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital could be negatively impacted. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail its research and development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations. These measures could cause significant delays in the Company’s efforts to commercialize its products, which is critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
