NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the
Period Ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 –
DESCRIPTION OF
BUSINESS
a.
General
Orgenesis
Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), is a pioneering global
biotech company in the Cell & Gene Therapy (“CGT”) industry
focused on unlocking the full potential of its therapeutics
products and personalized therapies and closed processing systems
with the ultimate aim of providing life-changing treatments to
large numbers of patients at reduced costs in a point-of-care
setting. It pursues this strategy through a point-of-care platform
(“CGT Biotech Platform”) that combines therapeutics, technologies,
processes, and systems via a network of collaborative partners, and
research institutes and hospitals around the world.
The
Company’s CGT Biotech Platform consists of: (a) POCare
Therapeutics, a pipeline of licensed CGTs, anti-viral and
proprietary scientific know-how; (b) POCare Technologies, a suite
of proprietary and in-licensed technologies which are engineered to
create customized processing systems for affordable point-of-care
therapies; and (c) a POCare Network, a collaborative, international
ecosystem of leading research institutions and hospitals committed
to clinical development and supply of CGTs at the point-of-care
(“POCare Network”).
The Company
is committed to the validation, adoption and development of
systems, technologies and processes for mobile processing unit and
labs (“OMPUL”). OMPULs are intended to be used and/or distributed
through Company’s point of care network of partners, collaborators
and joint ventures for the purpose of validation, development,
performance of clinical trials, manufacturing and/or processing of
potential or approved cell or gene therapy products in a safe,
reliable and cost-effective manner. This provides an industrial
solution for any clinical institution in the world to provide more
therapies at the point of care.
By combining
science, technology, including its mobile processing units that it
is developing, and a collaborative network, the Company believes
that it is able to identify the most promising new autologous
therapies and provide a pathway for them to reach patients more
quickly, more efficiently and in a scalable way, thereby unlocking
the power of cell and gene therapy for all patients, thus enabling
wide-scale access to these life-changing treatments.
The Company
had historically also operated a Contract Development and
Manufacturing Organization (“CDMO”) platform, which provided
contract manufacturing and development services for
biopharmaceutical companies (the “CDMO Business”). On February 2,
2020, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the
“Purchase Agreement”) with GPP-II Masthercell LLC (“GPP” and
together with the Company, the “Sellers”), Masthercell Global Inc.
(“Masthercell”) and Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. (the “Buyer”).
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, on
February 10, 2020, the Sellers sold
100% of the outstanding equity interests of Masthercell (the
“Masthercell Business”), which comprised the majority of the CDMO
Business, to the Buyer (the “Masthercell Sale”) for an aggregate
nominal purchase price of $315
million, subject to customary adjustments. After accounting for
GPP’s liquidation preference and equity stake in Masthercell as
well as other investor interests in its Belgian subsidiary
MaSTherCell, S.A. (“MaSTherCell”), distributions to Masthercell
option holders and transaction costs, the Company received
approximately $126.7
million. The Company incurred an additional approximately
$5.6
million in transaction costs.
The Company
has determined that the Masthercell Business (“Discontinued
Operation”) meets the criteria to be classified as a discontinued
operation as of the first quarter of 2020. The Discontinued
Operation includes the vast majority of the previous CDMO Business,
including majority-owned Masthercell, including its subsidiaries
Cell Therapy Holdings, MaSTherCell and Masthercell U.S.
(collectively, the “Masthercell Global Subsidiaries”) (See Note
3).
Since the
Masthercell Sale, the Company has entered into restated and updated
joint venture agreements with some of its joint venture partners
and new joint venture agreements with new partners in various
jurisdictions. This has allowed the Company to grow its
infrastructure and expand its processing sites into new markets and
jurisdictions. In addition, the Company has engaged some of these
joint venture partners to perform research and development services
to improve the Orgenesis Background IP. It also has allowed the
Company the manpower and financial resources to focus on
manufacturing and rolling out OMPULs to be used and/or distributed
through Company’s point of care network of partners, collaborators
and joint ventures.
The Chief
Executive Officer (“CEO”) is the Company’s chief operating
decision-maker. Management has determined that effective from the
first quarter of 2020, all of the Company’s continuing operations
are in the point-of-care business via the Company’s CGT Biotech
Platform. Therefore, no segment report has been
presented.
The Company
currently conducts its core CGT business operations through itself
and its subsidiaries which are all wholly-owned except as otherwise
stated (collectively, the “Subsidiaries”). The Subsidiaries are as
follows:
● |
United
States: Orgenesis Maryland Inc. (the “U.S. Subsidiary”) is the
center of activity in North America currently focused on setting up
of the POCare Network. |
|
|
● |
European
Union: Orgenesis Belgium SRL (the “Belgian Subsidiary”) is the
center of activity in Europe currently focused on process
development and preparation of European clinical
trials. |
|
|
● |
Israel:
Orgenesis Ltd. (the “Israeli Subsidiary”) is the center for
research and technology, as well as a provider of regulatory,
clinical and pre-clinical services, and Atvio Biotech Ltd.
(“Atvio”) is a provider of cell-processing services in
Israel. |
|
|
● |
Korea:
Orgenesis Korea Co. Ltd. (the “Korean Subsidiary”), previously
known as CureCell Co. Ltd., is a provider of processing and
pre-clinical services in Korea. The Company owns
94.12% of the Korean Subsidiary. |
These
condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Orgenesis Inc. and its subsidiaries, including the U.S. Subsidiary,
the Belgian Subsidiary, the Israeli Subsidiary, Atvio and the
Korean subsidiary, and the Discontinued Operation.
On April 7,
2020, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the
“Tamir Purchase Agreement”) with Tamir Biotechnology, Inc. (“Tamir”
or “Seller”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire
certain assets and liabilities of Tamir related to the discovery,
development and testing of therapeutic products for the treatment
of diseases and conditions in humans, including all rights to
Ranpirnase and use for antiviral therapy (collectively, the
“Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities” and such acquisition,
the “Tamir Transaction”). The Tamir Transaction closed on April 23,
2020. As aggregate consideration for the acquisition, the Company
paid $2.5
million in cash and issued an aggregate of 3,400,000 shares (the
“Shares”) of Common Stock to Tamir resulting in a total
consideration of $20.2
million. (See Note 6).
See Note 10
regarding the material definitive agreement with Koligo
Therapeutics Inc.
The
Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001
per share (the “Common Stock”) is listed and traded on the Nasdaq
Capital Market under the symbol “ORGS.”
As used in
this report and unless otherwise indicated, the term “Company”
refers to Orgenesis Inc. and its Subsidiaries. Unless otherwise
specified, all amounts are expressed in United States
Dollars.
b.
Liquidity
As of
September 30, 2020, the Company has accumulated losses of
approximately $37 Million.
On February
10, 2020, the Company received approximately $126.7
million, of which $7.2
million was used for the repayment of intercompany loans and
payables, from the Masthercell Sale. In addition, on January 20,
2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with
certain investors pursuant to which the Company received gross
proceeds of approximately $9.24
million before deducting related offering expenses (See Note
4).
Based on its
current cash resources and commitments, the Company believes it
will be able to maintain its current planned development activities
and expected level of expenditures for at least 12 months from the
date of the issuance of these financial statements. If there are
further increases in operating costs for facilities expansion,
research and development, commercial and clinical activity or
decreases in revenues from customers, the Company may decide to
seek additional financing.
NOTE 2 -
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
The
accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the
previous financial year except as described below.
Cash and cash
equivalents
The Company
considers cash equivalents to be all short-term, highly liquid
investments, which include money market instruments, that are not
restricted as to withdrawal or use, and short-term bank deposits
with original maturities of three months or less from the date of
purchase that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash.
Discontinued
operations
Upon
divesture of a business, the Company classifies such business as a
discontinued operation, if the divested business represents a
strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an
entity’s operations and financial results. For disposals other than
by sale such as abandonment, the results of operations of a
business would not be recorded as a discontinued operation until
the period in which the business is actually abandoned.
The
Masthercell Business divesture qualifies as a discontinued
operation and therefore have been presented as such.
The results
of businesses that have qualified as discontinued operations have
been presented as such for all reporting periods. Results of
discontinued operations include all revenues and expenses directly
derived from such businesses; general corporate overhead is not
allocated to discontinued operations. Any loss or gain that arose
from the divesture of a business that qualifies as discontinued
operations has been included within the results of the discontinued
operations. The Company included information regarding cash flows
from discontinued operations (See Note 3).
Reclassifications
Certain
reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial
statements to conform to the current year presentation. These
reclassifications had no net effect on previously reported results
of operations.
Newly issued and recently
adopted accounting pronouncements
The Company
early adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2020 which did not have a
material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements except for
the removal of the exception related to intra-period tax
allocations. Commencing from January 1, 2020, the Company followed
the general intra-period allocation of tax expenses. The Company
had incurred a loss from continuing operations and subsequent to
the adoption of ASU 2019-12, the Company determined the amount
attributable to continuing operations without regard to the tax
effect of other items. The ASU 2019-12 amendment related to the
intra-period tax allocation was applied prospectively.
Had the
Company not adopted ASU 2019-12, an approximately $18.7 million tax
benefit would have been recognized along with corresponding
decreases to net loss from continuing operations with a
corresponding increase in tax expenses and decrease in net income
resulting from discontinued operations. The Company had no
intra-period tax allocation items in prior years.
In August
2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06,
Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and
Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40)-Accounting For Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an
Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible
instruments by removing major separation models required under
current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will
be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate
accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes
certain settlement conditions that are required for equity
contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will
permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also
simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain
areas. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods
beginning after December 15, 2021, and early adoption is permitted
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its
consolidated financial statements.
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to
make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and
expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates,
judgments and methodologies. We base our estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are
reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and
equity and the amount of revenues and expenses.
The full
extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may directly or indirectly
impact our business, results of operations and financial condition,
will depend on future developments that are uncertain, including as
a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and
the actions taken to contain it or treat COVID-19, as well as the
economic impact on local, regional, national and international
customers and markets. We have made estimates of the impact of
COVID-19 within our financial statements, and although there is
currently no major impact, there may be changes to those estimates
in future periods. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.
NOTE 3 –
DISCONTINUED
OPERATIONS
On February
2, 2020, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with GPP,
Masthercell and the Buyer. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the Purchase Agreement, Sellers agreed to sell
100% of the outstanding equity interests of Masthercell to
Buyer for an aggregate nominal purchase price of $315
million, subject to customary adjustments. The Company has
determined that the Masthercell Business meets the criteria to be
classified as a discontinued operation.
On February
10, 2020, the Masthercell Sale was consummated in accordance with
the terms of the Purchase Agreement. After accounting for GPP’s
liquidation preference and equity stake in Masthercell, as well as
SFPI – FPIM’s interest in MaSTherCell, distributions to Masthercell
option holders and transaction costs, the Company received
approximately $126.7
million at the closing of the Masthercell Sale, of which $7.2
million was used for the repayment of intercompany loans and
payables, including $4.6
million of payables to MaSTherCell. Included in this amount is
$1.5
million which was deposited into an escrow account in connection
with potential adjustments based on working capital and
indebtedness at closing. The escrow amount was transferred to the
Company at the end of July 2020.
Due to the
sale of the controlling interest in Masthercell, the Company
retrospectively reclassified the assets and liabilities of these
entities as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations and
included the financial results of these entities (as of the
February 10, 2020) in discontinued operations in the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
Discontinued
operations relate to the Masthercell Business. The comprehensive
loss and balance sheet for this operation are separately reported
as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
The
financial results of the Masthercell Business are presented as
income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes on
the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. The
following table presents the financial results associated with the
Masthercell Business operation as reflected in the Company’s
Consolidated Comprehensive loss (in thousands):

by Theracell. The Company by itself, or together with a designee,
will hold a 50% participating interest
in the Greek JV Entity, with the remaining 50%
participating interest being held by Theracell or its affiliate
following the parties’ contributions to the Greek JV Entity as set
forth under the new Greek JVA. The Greek JV Entity will have a
steering committee that will act as the board of directors of the
Greek JV Entity and shall be composed of a total of three members,
with one member appointed by each party and independent member to
be mutually appointed. The Company shall have the option, at its
sole discretion and subject to all rules and regulations to which
it is then subject, to require Theracell to transfer to the Company
the entirety of Theracell’s equity interest in the Greek JV Entity
for a consideration to be calculated in accordance with a valuation
of the JV Entity to be determined by an independent third party
expert to be mutually selected by the parties.

Japan (the “CT Territory”).
The parties
intend to pursue the CT JVA through a joint venture by forming a JV
entity (the “CT JV Entity”). Until the CT JV Entity is formed, all
JV activities are being carried out by CT. The Company by itself,
or together with a designee, will hold a 50% participating interest
in the CT JV Entity, with the remaining 50%
participating interest being held by CT or its affiliate following
the parties’ contributions to the CT JV Entity. The CT JV Entity
will have a steering committee that will act as the board of
directors of the CT JV Entity and shall be composed of a total of
three members, with one member appointed by each party and an
independent industry expert member to be mutually appointed. The
Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion and subject
to all rules and regulations to which it is then subject, to
require CT to transfer to the Company the entirety of CT’s equity
interest in the CT JV Entity for a consideration to be calculated
in accordance with a valuation of the CT JV Entity to be determined
by an independent third party expert to be mutually selected by the
parties.

incorporated.
Under the CT
JVA, CT will be responsible to obtain required marketing approvals
for the CT and Company Products in the CT Territory based on
clinical trials and regulatory requirements.
In addition,
each of the Parties will be responsible to provide the CT JV with
funding in an amount of at least ten million US Dollars ($10,000,000), to cover
the operation costs of the CT JV, half of which may be in the form
of in kind contributions. Company’s such additional investments may
be made in the form of an equity investment for additional shares
in the CT JV, a convertible loan, and/or procured services (the
“Additional Investment”), if required (as determined by the board
of directors) in order to maintain the activity of the CT JV or to
maintain such Party’s pro-rata holding percentage in the share
capital of the CT JV, in any future financing round.
The Company
may choose to provide the funding required as part of its
obligations under the CT JVA by engaging CT or the CT JV to perform
services, and research and development services to create,
optimize, improve the Orgenesis Background IP, technology,
processes, system, and validation, (“CT-ORGS Procured Services”).
The CT-ORGS Procured Services will be subject to, and will be
carried out by CT or the CT JV (as applicable) in accordance with a
separate Master Services Agreement (the “CT MSA”). All results of
the ORGS Procured Services shall be owned by Company. The Company
and CT executed such CT MSA in the third quarter of 2020, pursuant
to which CT agreed to provide the Company with services in the
amount of $4.5
million
according to an approved work program. The Company did not
recognize any such procured services in the third quarter of 2020
(See Note 10).
CT also
agreed to grant to the CT JV, during the term, an exclusive,
sublicensable right and license to the CT Background IP (as defined
in the CT MSA) as required solely to manufacture, distribute and
market and sell CT Products (as defined in the CT MSA) within the
CT Territory, subject and in accordance with the terms of a
separate license agreement to be signed between CT and the CT JV
(“CT License Agreement”). In consideration of the rights and the CT
licenses to be granted to the CT JV during the Term under the CT
License Agreement, CT shall receive royalty in an amount of up to
ten percent (10%) of
the net sales generated by the CT JV and/or its sublicensees (as
applicable) with respect to the CT Products, as to be more fully
stipulated and set forth under the CT License Agreement; and grant
Company an exclusive, sublicensable right and license to the CT
Background IP as required solely to manufacture, distribute and
market and sell CT Products outside of the CT Territory under the
terms of a separate license agreement to be entered into between CT
and the Company, in consideration for payment of a royalty in an
amount of up to ten percent (10%) of the
net sales generated by the Company and/or its sublicensees (as
applicable) with respect to the CT Products outside of the CT
Territory.
The Company

hold 50%. The Company shall
also have the option to, at its sole discretion and subject to all
rules and regulations to which it is then subject, require Mircod
to transfer to the Company the entirety of Mircod’s equity interest
in the Mircod JV Entity for a consideration of shares of Common

Tamir
Biotechnology, Inc.
On April 7,
2020, the Company entered into the Tamir Purchase Agreement with
Tamir, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire certain
assets and liabilities of Tamir related to the discovery,
development and testing of therapeutic products for the treatment
of diseases and conditions in humans, including all rights to
Ranpirnase and use for antiviral therapy. The Tamir Transaction
closed on April 23, 2020.
As aggregate
consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid $2.5
million in cash and issued an aggregate of 3,400,000 shares (the
“Shares”) of Common Stock to Tamir resulting in a total
consideration of $20.2
million based on the Company’s share price at the closing date.
$59 thousand and 340,000
Shares are being held in an escrow account for a period of 18
months from closing to secure indemnification obligations of Tamir
pursuant to the terms of the Tamir Purchase Agreement. $4.5 million of the consideration
was attributable to research and development related inventory and
most of the remaining amount reflected the cost of intangible
assets.
Included in
the purchased assets was the assumption by the Company of a
worldwide license to a private company of certain Tamir
technologies in the field of treatment, amelioration, mitigation or
prevention of diseases or conditions of the eye and its adnexa in
return for certain development and sales milestone payments to be
paid to Tamir. This license fee and the right to receive future
milestone payments (of up to $11 million assuming that
certain milestones are reached) and royalties (of up to $35 million based on net sales
milestones), were assumed by the Company in connection with the
Tamir Purchase Agreement together with a less than 10% share interest. To date, no
milestones have been reached.
The
Company’s acquired right to Tamir’s intellectual property
represents a single identifiable asset sourced from the agreement.
Because substantially all (more than 90%) of
the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a
single asset being the right to Tamir’s intellectual property and
related assets (“IPR&D”), the Company determined that the
acquisition is not considered a business in accordance with ASC
805-10-55-5A. Therefore, the Company accounted the transaction as
an asset acquisition. The fair value associated with Tamir’s
IPR&D in the amount of $19.5 million was
charged to research and development expenses under ASC 730. The
remaining amount was attributed to the above-mentioned share in a
private company, which is presented in the balance sheet as long
term “other assets.
Extracellular Vesicle
(“EV”) Technology License
During the
third quarter of 2020, the Company purchased the IP and related EV
technology from a service provider (the “Service Provider”)
pursuant to an EV agreement (the “EV agreement”). According to the
EV agreement, the Service Provider sold to the Company all of its
rights in the EV technology that it had produced, in the amount of
$500 thousand, to be paid in equal installments over the next 12
months from September 2020. During September 2020, the Company paid
$ thousand to the Service Provider.
The $500 thousand were
recorded in R&D expenses. In addition, the Service Provider
granted the Company an exclusive worldwide license to use the EV IP
technology for any purpose.

SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
1.
Material Definitive Agreement with Koligo Therapeutics
Inc.
On September
26, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the
Company, Orgenesis Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Koligo
Therapeutics Inc., a Kentucky corporation (“Koligo”), the
shareholders of Koligo (collectively, the “Shareholders”), and Long
Hill Capital V, LLC (“Long Hill”), solely in its capacity as the
representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the Shareholders. The
Merger Agreement provides for the acquisition of Koligo by the
Company through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Koligo, with
Koligo surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the
“Merger”). The Merger was
announced in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on October 1, 2020, to which a copy of the
Merger Agreement, along with copies of certain other ancillary
agreements, were annexed as exhibits. On October 15, 2020
(the “Effective Time”), the Company closed the Merger.
Koligo
was a privately-held US regenerative medicine company. Koligo’s
first commercial product is KYSLECEL® (autologous pancreatic
islets) for chronic and acute recurrent pancreatitis. Koligo’s 3D-V
technology platform incorporates the use of advanced 3D bioprinting
techniques and vascular endothelial cells to support development of
transformational cell and tissue products for serious
diseases.
Pursuant to
the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the
shares of capital stock of Koligo that were issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time were automatically
cancelled and converted into the right to receive, subject to
customary adjustments, an aggregate of 2,061,713 shares of
Company common stock were issued to Koligo’s accredited investors
(with certain non-accredited investors being paid solely in cash in
the amount of approximately $20 thousand) in
accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. In connection
with the Merger, the Company assumed an aggregate of approximately
$1.9 million of Koligo’s
liabilities, which were substantially all of Koligo’s liabilities
at the closing of the Merger.
The
Merger Agreement contains customary indemnification provisions
whereby the Shareholders of Koligo will indemnify the Company and
certain affiliated parties for any losses arising out of breaches
of the representations, warranties and covenants of Koligo and the
Shareholders under the Merger Agreement. As partial security for
the indemnification and purchase price adjustment obligations of
Koligo shareholders under the Merger Agreement, $7 thousand in cash and
328,587 shares of Company
common stock of the merger consideration otherwise payable in the
Merger to the Shareholders were placed in a third party escrow
account. The aggregate indemnification obligations of the Koligo
shareholders under the Merger Agreement is capped at the amounts in
escrow, subject to certain limited exceptions.
In addition,
according to the agreement between the parties, the Company has
also funded an additional cash consideration of $500 thousand (with
$100 thousand of
such reducing the ultimate consideration payable to Koligo) for the
acquisition of the assets of Tissue Genesis, LLC (“Tissue Genesis”)
by Koligo that was consummated on October 14, 2020. The Tissue
Genesis assets include the entire inventory of Tissue Genesis
Icellator® devices, related kits and reagents, a broad patent
portfolio to protect the technology, registered trademarks,
clinical data, and existing business relationships for commercial
and development stage use of the Icellator technology.
In
connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company, Long Hill and
Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”) entered into a Registration Rights and
Lock-Up Agreement pursuant to which Long Hill will have one demand
registration right to require the registration of the shares of
Company common stock received by Long Hill in the Merger and Long
Hill and Maxim will have certain piggyback registration rights. In
addition, Long Hill agreed with the Company that, during the
applicable Restriction Period (as defined below), it shall not sell
or transfer, subject to certain limited exceptions, the portion of
the shares received in the Merger during the applicable Restriction
Period, subject to a limitation on the number of shares sold per
any trading day not to exceed 10% of the
average daily trading volume of the Common Stock, as reported by
Bloomberg Financial L.P. “Restriction Period” means (a) in relation to 70% of
all of the shares received in the Merger that Long Hill is entitled
to receive under or in connection with the Merger Agreement, the
period beginning on the date of the closing and ending on the date
that is the four month anniversary thereof, and (b) in relation to
the remaining 30% of all of the shares received in the Merger that
Long Hill is entitled to receive under or in connection with the
Merger Agreement, the period beginning on the date of the closing
and ending on the date that is the twelve month anniversary
thereof.
In addition,
pursuant to separate Lock-Up Agreements entered into by the
Shareholders other than Long Hill with the Company (the
“Shareholders Lock-Up Agreement”), such Shareholders agreed that
they will not transfer any of their shares received in the Merger
except in accordance with the following lock-up release schedule
whereby one fifth of such holder’s respective shares will be
released from such restriction every six months, starting six
months from the closing of the Merger. Each holder’s sales of such
shares are subject to a resale limit of its pro rata portion of 10%
of the average daily trading volume, allocated to the Shareholders
other than Long Hill pro-rata.
The
acquisition will be accounted in accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification Topic 805, “Business Combinations”. As the
acquisition was completed subsequent to September 30, 2020, the
consolidated financial statements do not include the results or the
financial position of Koligo. Under the disclosure requirements of
ASC 805 the Company is required to provide information regarding
the effect of the business combination. Because the Company hasn’t
completed the work of the purchase price allocation needed under
ASC 805, the initial accounting for the business combination was
incomplete at the time of the issuance of the financial statements,
therefore, the Company did not include the above mentioned
information as permitted by ASC 805-10-50-4 and ASC
805-30-50-3.

Corporate
Overview
We are a
pioneering global biotech company in the Cell & Gene Therapy
(“CGT”) industry focused on unlocking the full potential of
personalized therapies and closed processing systems with the
ultimate aim of providing life-changing treatments to large numbers
of patients at reduced costs in a point-of-care setting. We pursue
this strategy through a point-of-care platform (“CGT Biotech
Platform”) that combines therapeutics and technologies via a
network of collaborative research institutes and hospitals, and
including via its mobile processing units, around the
world.
We had
historically also operated a Contract Development and Manufacturing
Organization (“CDMO”) platform, which provided contract
manufacturing and development services for biopharmaceutical
companies (the “CDMO Business”). On February 2, 2020, we sold our
CDMO Business when we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the
“Purchase Agreement”) with GPP-II Masthercell LLC (“GPP” and
together with the Company, the “Sellers”), Masthercell Global and
Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. (the “Buyer”). Pursuant to the
terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, on February 10,
2020, the Sellers sold 100% of the outstanding equity interests of
Masthercell Global to Buyer (the “Masthercell Sale”) for an
aggregate nominal purchase price of $315 million, subject to
customary adjustments. After accounting for GPP’s liquidation
preference and equity stake in Masthercell as well as other
investor interests in MaSTherCell, distributions to Masthercell
Global option holders and transaction costs, we received
approximately $126.7 million. We determined that the Masthercell
Global business (“Discontinued Operation”) met the criteria to be
classified as a discontinued operation as of the first quarter of
2020. The Discontinued Operation includes the vast majority of the
previous CDMO Business, including majority-owned Masthercell
Global, including its subsidiaries Cell Therapy Holdings S.A.,
MaSTherCell and Masthercell U.S. (collectively, the “Masthercell
Global Subsidiaries”).
We conduct
our operations through our wholly-owned subsidiaries (unless
otherwise stipulated below). The subsidiaries are as
follows:
● |
United
States: Orgenesis Maryland Inc. is the center of activity in North
America currently focused on technology licensing and the setting
up of the POCare Network (as defined below). |
|
|
● |
European
Union: Orgenesis Belgium SRL is the center of activity in Europe
currently focused on process development and preparation of
European clinical trials. |
|
|
● |

as a provider of regulatory, clinical and pre-clinical services,
and Atvio Biotech Ltd. is a provider of cell-processing services in
Israel. |
|
|
● |
Korea:
Orgenesis Korea Co. Ltd., previously known as CureCell Co. Ltd., is
a provider of processing and pre-clinical services in Korea. We own
94.12% of the Korean Subsidiary. |
CGT
Biotech Platform
Business
Strategy
Our CGT
Biotech Platform consists of: (a) POCare Therapeutics, a pipeline
of licensed CGTs, anti-viral and proprietary scientific know-how;
(b) POCare Technologies, a suite of proprietary and in-licensed
technologies which are engineered to create customized processing
systems for affordable point-of-care therapies; and (c) a POCare
Network, a collaborative, international ecosystem of leading
research institutions and hospitals committed to clinical
development and supply of CGTs at the point-of-care (“POCare
Network”). By combining science, technologies and a collaborative
network, we believe that we are able to identify the most promising
new autologous therapies and provide a pathway for them to reach
patients more quickly, more efficiently and in a scalable way,
thereby unlocking the power of cell and gene therapy for all
patients. Autologous therapies are produced from a patient’s own
cells, instead of mass-cultivated donor-cells, or allogeneic cells.
Allogeneic therapies are derived from donor cells and, through the
construction of master and working cell banks, are produced on a
large scale. Autologous therapies are derived from the treated
patient and manufactured through a defined protocol before
re-administration and generally demand a more complex supply chain.
Currently with the CGT market relying heavily on production and
supply chain of manufacturing sites, we believe our CGT Biotech
Platform may help overcome some of the development and supply
challenges with bringing these therapies to patients.
In pursuit
of this focus, we have been forming key strategic relationships
with leading research institutions and hospitals around the world.
We are also licensing breakthrough technologies, including via our
mobile processing units, which complement our offerings and support
our model. As a result, we believe that we now have significant
expertise and capabilities across a wide range of therapies and
supporting technologies including, but not limited to, Tumor
Infiltrating Lymphocytes (“TILs”), CAR-T and CAR-NK, dendritic cell
technologies, exosomes and bioxomes and viral vectors. We believe
that these capabilities enable us to launch an aggressive push into
a wide array of promising new potential therapies.
The Company
is committed to the validation, adoption and development of
systems, technologies and processes for mobile processing unit and
labs (“OMPUL”). OMPULs will be used and/or distributed through
Company’s point of care network of partners, collaborators and JV’s
for the purpose of validation, development, performance of clinical
trials, manufacturing and/or processing of potential or approved
cell or gene therapy products in a safe, reliable and
cost-effective manner. This provides an industrial solution for any
clinical institution in the world to provide more therapies at the
point of care.
By combining
science, technology, including its mobile processing units that it
is developing, and a collaborative network, the Company believes
that it is able to identify the most promising new autologous
therapies and provide a pathway for them to reach patients more
quickly, more efficiently and in a scalable way, thereby unlocking
the power of cell and gene therapy for all patients, thus enabling
wide-scale access to these life-changing treatments.
We are
developing an efficient and streamlined organization, whereby we
are able to share both costs and revenues with our partners in
order to avoid the historically high development costs associated
with CGT drug development. We believe we have developed a truly
unique model with the ability to cost-effectively develop and
produce CGTs at scale, which we believe has the potential to
transform the CGT industry.
We consider
the following to be the four pillars in order to advance our
business strategy under our CGT Biotech Platform:
● |
Innovation – This leverages our
unique know-how and expertise for industrial processes, operational
excellence, process development and optimization, quality control
assays development, quality management systems and regulatory
expertise. |
|
|
● |
Systems – We are developing
cell production cGMP systems utilizing sensor technology and unique
systems for biological production, closed system technology for
processing cells, proprietary virus/ media technologies and
partnerships with key system providers. |
|
|
● |
Cell & Gene Products – We
intend to grow our internal asset pipeline consisting of our unique
portfolio of immuno-oncology related technologies, anti-viral
therapies, MSC and liver-based therapies and secretome-based
therapies. |
|
|
● |
Distribution – This is our
POCare Network which is designed to enable development,
commercialization and distribution of CGTs via the installation of
point-of-care systems in major hospitals in key geographies (i.e.,
Europe, North America, Asia, South America etc.), thereby creating
a regional and international system network to serve as our
distribution channel. |
While our
CGT Biotech Platform is currently limited to early stage
development to overcome certain industry challenges, we intend to
continue developing our global POCare Network, with the goal of
developing CGTs via joint ventures with partners who bring strong
regional networks. Such networks include partnerships with leading
research institutions and local hospitals which allows us to engage
in continuous in-licensing of, namely, autologous therapies from
academia and research institutes, co-development of hospital and
academic-based therapies, and utilization of hospital networks for
clinical development of therapies.
Our IP
portfolio includes trans-differentiation technology licensed by our
Israeli Subsidiary. Our development plan calls for conducting
additional pre-clinical safety and efficacy studies with respect to
diabetes and other potential indications prior to initiating human
clinical trials.
We own or
have exclusive rights to twenty eight (28) United States, thirty
two (32) foreign-issued patents, thirty three (33) pending
applications in the United States, fifty eight (58) pending
applications in foreign jurisdictions, including Europe, Australia,
Brazil, Canada, China, Eurasia, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan,
Mexico, New Zealand, Panama, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, and
South Korea, and five (5) international Patent Cooperation Treaty
(“PCT”) patent applications. These patents and applications relate,
among others, to (1) the trans-differentiation of cells (including
hepatic cells) to cells having pancreatic β-cell-like phenotype and
function and to their use in the treatment of degenerative
pancreatic disorders, including diabetes, pancreatic cancer and
pancreatitis; (2) scaffolds, including alginate and sulfated
alginate scaffolds, polysaccharides thereof, and scaffolds for use
for cell propagation, trans-differentiation, and transplantation in
the treatment of autoimmune diseases, including diabetes; (3)
bioconjugates comprising sulfated polysaccharides and diverse
bioactive peptides, and their use in the treatment of inflammatory
conditions; (4) bioreactors for cell culture; (5) dendritic and
macrophages based vaccines, and their use for treating cancer and
viral diseases; (6) compositions comprising ranpirnase and other
ribonucleases for treating viral diseases; (7) tumor infiltrating
lymphocytes (TILs) and their use for treating cancer; (8)
compositions comprising plasma from recovered patients and their
use for treating COVID-19; (9) methods for producing antibodies;
(10) cysteinazed ribonucleases; (11) transdifferentiated cells for
treating central nervous system (CNS) disorders and methods for
administering them intranasally; (12) chimeric antigen receptors
(CARs); (13) whole-cell antiviral vaccines; (14) therapeutic
compositions comprising exosomes, bioxomes, and redoxomes; and (15)
extracorporeal therapeutic devices for processing cells or
derivatives thereof. In June 2019, the United States Food &
Drug Administration (the “FDA”) granted us the Orphan Drug
designation for our Autologous Insulin Producing (“AIP”) cells as a
cell replacement therapy for the treatment of severe
hypoglycemia-prone diabetes resulting from total pancreatectomy
(“TP”) due to chronic pancreatitis (“CP”).
Since the
Masthercell Sale, the Company has entered into a restated and
updated joint venture agreements with some of our joint venture
partners and new joint venture agreements with new partners in
various jurisdictions. This has allowed the Company to grow its
infrastructure and expand its processing sites into new markets and
jurisdictions. In addition, the Company has engaged some of these
joint venture partners to perform research and development services
to improve the Orgenesis Background IP. It also has allowed the
Company the manpower and financial resources to focus on
manufacturing and rolling out OMPULs to be used and/or distributed
through Company’s point of care network of partners, collaborators
and JV’s
Revenue
Model
We believe
that our CGT Biotech Platform is a novel business model in that it
brings autologous therapies in a cost-effective, high-quality and
scalable manner to patients. We believe that this approach is an
attractive proposition for personalized medicine because
point-of-care therapy facilitates the development of technologies
through our strategic partnerships and utilizes closed systems that
have the potential of reducing the required grade of clean room
facilities, thus substantially reducing manufacturing costs.
Furthermore, cell transportation, which is a high-risk and costly
aspect of the supply chain, could be minimized or eliminated. We
are establishing and positioning our CGT Biotech Platform in order
to bring therapies to patients in a scalable way via a network of
leading research institutions and hospitals committed to clinical
development and supply of CGTs, including facilities in Germany,
Austria, Greece, the U.S., Korea and India, or otherwise referred
to as our POCare Network. We established our POCare Network through
licensing, collaboration and joint venture agreements. Once
established, along with our POCare Therapeutics and POCare
Technologies, this network can then reach patients at the
point-of-care. Our POCare Therapeutics and POCare Technologies
allow us to offer a range of technologies and processes to provide
CGTs worldwide that potentially generate revenues within our POCare
Network. This includes:
● |
Development Services – These
are services for industrial manufacturing know-how to our network
of licensing partners, thus reducing cost of goods and facilitating
regulatory scrutiny, higher automation level required to increase
process robustness and reduce attrition rates, biological assay
development, assay validation and assay optimization. |
● |
Licensing Fees – Such fees are
for (a) innovative technologies such as scaffolds and IoT sensors
and closed system-related technologies that allow autologous cell
manufacturing in lower grade clean rooms and (b) out-licensing of
our portfolio of CGTs to our POCare Network. |
|
|
● |
Point-of-Care Services – This
includes regulatory, development and training assistance to local
partners who bring strong regional networks through (a) joint
venture partnerships with local hospitals, (b) local regulatory
know-how, and (c) local therapeutic development. |
Recent
Developments During the Three Months Ended September 30,
2020
Restated,
new and updated joint venture agreements
During the
third quarter of 2020, we entered into restated and updated joint
venture agreements with some of our joint venture partners and new
joint venture agreements with new partners in various
jurisdictions. This has allowed us to grow our infrastructure and
expand our processing sites into new markets. In addition, we have
engaged some of these joint venture partners to perform research
and development services to improve the Orgenesis Background IP
(“ORGS Procured Services”) in an amount of approximately $46
million under separate master services agreements, according to
work programs that have been approved by the board of directors,
during 2020 and 2021. The results of such ORGS Procured Services
shall be owned by the Company. During the third quarter of 2020,
these joint venture partners provided such services in the amount
of $1.5 million which are reflected in R&D and R&D
services.
Coronavirus disease
19 (COVID-19)
Due to the
global outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, the novel strain of coronavirus that
causes Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19), we experienced minor
impacts on certain aspects of our business during the three months
ended September 30, 2020. The scope and duration of any
disruptions, for example, as a result of governmental “stay at
home” orders in the interests of public health and safety and the
ultimate impacts of COVID-19 on our operations, are currently
unknown. We are continuing to actively monitor the situation and
may take further precautionary and preemptive actions as may be
required by federal, state or local authorities or that we
determine are in the best interests of public health and safety and
that of our patient community, employees, partners, and
stockholders. We cannot predict the effects that such actions, or
the impact of COVID-19 on global business operations and economic
conditions, may have on our business, strategy, collaborations, or
financial and operating results.
Sponsored
Research and Exclusive License Agreement with Health Corporation of
the Wolfson Medical Center
During the third quarter of 2020, we entered into a Framework
Agreement (“Framework Agreement”) with Health Corporation of the
Wolfson Hospital (“MRC”) whereby we will provide financial support
for sponsored research by MRC with the scope of the research and
the budget to be agreed by parties in advance. Any clinical trial
will be governed by the terms of a clinical trial agreement to be
negotiated between us and MRC. We shall provide a Mobile Processing
Unit to be stationed on the MRC site. Ownership of the results of
the sponsored research shall belong to us. The term of the
Framework Agreement is 5 years unless terminated sooner according
to its terms.

thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2019,
representing an increase of 68%.The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses in the three months ended September
2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019 is
primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and related
expenses and stock based compensation due to increased
compensation, and an increase in accounting and legal fees of
$1,232 thousand, which is mainly attributable to additional legal
fees incurred for recent business and collaboration
agreements.

for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $5,356 thousand,
as compared to $2,782 thousand for the nine months ended September
30, 2019, representing an increase of 93%. The increase in revenues
for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is attributable to the
increase in point-of-care services revenue as a result of increased
activity under master service agreements with our joint venture
partners.

an increase of 32%. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses in the nine months ended in September 2020
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily
attributable to the following:
|
(i) |
A decrease
in salaries and related expenses and stock-based compensation of
$383 thousand, due the reassignment of certain employees from
selling, general, and administration to research and development
services; and |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
An increase
in accounting and legal fees of $3,428 thousand, which is mainly
attributable to legal fees incurred for recent business and
collaboration agreements. |

As mentioned
in above, on February 2, 2020, we entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with GPP-II Masthercell LLC
(“GPP” and together with us, the “Sellers”), Masthercell Global
Inc. (“Masthercell”) and Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. (the
“Buyer”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase
Agreement, on February 10, 2020, the Sellers sold 100% of the
outstanding equity interests of Masthercell to Buyer (the
“Masthercell Sale”) for an aggregate nominal purchase price of $315
million, subject to customary adjustments. After accounting for
GPP’s liquidation preference and equity stake in Masthercell as
well as SFPI – FPIM’s interest in MaSTherCell, distributions to
Masthercell option holders and transaction costs, we received
approximately $126.7 million, of which $7.2 million was used for
the repayment of intercompany loans and payables.
During the
nine month period ended September 30, 2020, we funded our
operations with the proceeds of the Masthercell Sale and through
various financing activities consisting of proceeds primarily from
private placements of our equity securities, debt securities and
equity-linked instruments in the net amount of approximately $9
million.
Net cash
used in operating activities for the nine months ended September
30, 2020 was approximately $33 million, as compared to net cash
used in operating activities of approximately $11 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Net cash
provided by investing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2020 was approximately $104 million, as compared to
net cash used in investing activities of approximately $7 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Net cash
provided by financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2020 was approximately $6 million, as compared to net
cash provided by financing activities of approximately $14 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Liquidity
& Capital Resources Outlook
We believe
that the proceeds from the Masthercell Sale, as well as our
business plan, will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our
operating needs for at least the next 12 months. However, there are
factors that can impact our ability to continue to fund our
operating needs, including:
● |
restrictions
on our ability to expand sales volume from our CGT Biotech
Platform; and |
● |
the need for
us to continue to invest in operating activities to remain
competitive or acquire other businesses and technologies and to
complement our products, expand the breadth of our business,
enhance our technical capabilities or otherwise offer growth
opportunities. |
The net
proceeds from the sale of Masthercell were approximately $126.7
million, of which $7.2 million were used for the repayment of
intercompany loans and payables. In addition, on January 20, 2020,
we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain
investors pursuant to which we issued an aggregate of 2,200,000
shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate
of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock, which resulted in our receipt
of gross proceeds of approximately $9.24 million before deducting
related offering expenses.
If there are
further increases in operating costs in general and administrative
expenses for facilities expansion, funding for some of our
collaborations and joint ventures, research and development,
commercial and clinical activity or decreases in revenues from
customers, we may decide to seek additional financing.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
The Company
has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably
likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s
financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or
expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or
capital resources that is material to stockholders.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market Risk
Not
applicable.
Item 4. Controls and
Procedures
Evaluation of
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules
and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing
disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was
required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit
relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The
design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in
part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future
events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed
in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this
report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing,
our principal executive officer and principal financial officer
concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report,
the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable
assurance level.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 that have
materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We know of
no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or its
subsidiaries are a party or of which any of its properties, or the
properties of its subsidiaries, are the subject. In addition, we do
not know of any such proceedings contemplated by any governmental
authorities.
We know of
no material proceedings in which any of the Company’s directors,
officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder
is a party adverse to the Company or its Subsidiaries or has a
material interest adverse to the Company or its
subsidiaries.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An
investment in the Company’s Common Stock involves a number of very
significant risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors
included in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the SEC on
March 9, 2020, in addition to other information contained in our
reports and in this quarterly report in evaluating the Company and
its business before purchasing shares of our Common Stock. Except
as set forth below, there have been no material changes to our risk
factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2019. The Company’s business, operating results
and financial condition could be adversely affected due to any of
those risks. In addition:
Risks
Related to Our Company and POC Business
We have
entered into collaborations and may form or seek collaborations or
strategic alliances or enter into additional licensing arrangements
in the future, and we may not realize the benefits of such
alliances or licensing arrangements.
We have
entered into collaborations and joint ventures and may form or seek
strategic alliances, create joint ventures or collaborations, or
enter into additional licensing arrangements with third parties
that we believe will complement or augment our development and
commercialization efforts with respect to our product candidates
and any future product candidates that we may develop. Any of these
relationships may require us to incur non-recurring and other
charges, increase our near and long-term expenditures, issue
securities that dilute our existing stockholders, or disrupt our
management and business. In addition, we face significant
competition in seeking appropriate strategic partners for which the
negotiation process is time-consuming and complex. Moreover, we may
not be successful in our efforts to establish a strategic
partnership or other alternative arrangements for our product
candidates because they may be deemed to be at too early of a stage
of development for collaborative effort and third parties may not
view our product candidates as having the requisite potential to
demonstrate safety and efficacy. Further, collaborations involving
our product candidates, such as our collaborations with third-party
research institutions, are subject to numerous risks, which may
include the following:
|
● |
collaborators have
significant discretion in determining the efforts and resources
that they will apply to a collaboration; |
|
● |
collaborators may not
perform their obligations as expected; |
|
● |
collaborators may not
pursue development and commercialization of our product candidates
or may elect not to continue or renew development or
commercialization programs based on clinical trial results, changes
in their strategic focus due to the acquisition of competitive
products, availability of funding, or other external factors, such
as a business combination that diverts resources or creates
competing priorities; |
|
● |
collaborators may delay
clinical trials, provide insufficient funding for a clinical trial,
stop a clinical trial, abandon a product candidate, repeat or
conduct new clinical trials, or require a new formulation of a
product candidate for clinical testing; |
|
● |
collaborators could fail to make timely regulatory submissions for
a product candidate; |
|
● |
collaborators may not
comply with all applicable regulatory requirements or may fail to
report safety data in accordance with all applicable regulatory
requirements; |
|
● |
collaborators could
independently develop, or develop with third parties, products that
compete directly or indirectly with our products or product
candidates; |
|
● |
product
candidates developed in collaboration with us may be viewed by our
collaborators as competitive with their own product candidates or
products, which may cause collaborators to cease to devote
resources to the commercialization of our product
candidates; |
|
● |
a
collaborator with marketing and distribution rights to one or more
products may not commit sufficient resources to their marketing and
distribution; |
|
● |
collaborators may not
properly maintain or defend our intellectual property rights or may
use our intellectual property or proprietary information in a way
that gives rise to actual or threatened litigation that could
jeopardize or invalidate our intellectual property or proprietary
information or expose us to potential liability; |
|
● |
disputes may
arise between us and a collaborator that cause the delay or
termination of the research, development or commercialization of
our product candidates, or that result in costly litigation or
arbitration that diverts management attention and
resources; |
|
● |
collaborations may be
terminated and, if terminated, may result in a need for additional
capital to pursue further development or commercialization of the
applicable product candidates; and |
|
● |
collaborators may own or
co-own intellectual property covering our products that results
from our collaborating with them and, in such cases, we would not
have the exclusive right to commercialize such intellectual
property. |
As a result,
if we enter into collaboration agreements and strategic
partnerships or license our products or businesses, we may not be
able to realize the benefit of such transactions if we are unable
to successfully integrate them with our existing operations and
company culture, which could delay our timelines or otherwise
adversely affect our business. The success of our existing and
future collaboration arrangements and strategic partnerships, which
include research and development services by our collaborators to
improve our intellectual property, will depend heavily on the
efforts and activities of our collaborators and may not be
successful. We also cannot be certain that, following a strategic
transaction or license, we will achieve the revenue or specific net
income that justifies such transaction. Any delays in entering into
new collaborations or strategic partnership agreements related to
our product candidates could delay the development and
commercialization of our product candidates in certain geographies
for certain indications, which would harm our business prospects,
financial condition, and results of operations.
Our
success will depend on strategic collaborations with third parties
to develop and commercialize therapeutic product candidates, and we
may not have control over a number of key elements relating to the
development and commercialization of any such product
candidate.
A key aspect
of our strategy is to seek collaborations with partners, such as a
large pharmaceutical organization, that is willing to further
develop and commercialize a selected product candidate. To date, we
have entered into a number of collaborative arrangements with cell
therapy organizations. By entering into any such strategic
collaborations, we may rely on our partner for financial resources
and for development, regulatory and commercialization expertise.
Our partner may fail to develop or effectively commercialize our
product candidate because they:
|
● |
do not have
sufficient resources or decide not to devote the necessary
resources due to internal constraints such as limited cash or human
resources; |
|
● |
decide to
pursue a competitive potential product developed outside of the
collaboration; |
|
● |
cannot
obtain the necessary regulatory approvals; |
|
● |
determine
that the market opportunity is not attractive; or |
|
● |
cannot
manufacture or obtain the necessary materials in sufficient
quantities from multiple sources or at a reasonable
cost. |
We may not
be able to enter into additional collaborations on acceptable
terms, if at all. We face competition in our search for partners
from other organizations worldwide, many of whom are larger and are
able to offer more attractive deals in terms of financial
commitments, contribution of human resources, or development,
manufacturing, regulatory or commercial expertise and support. If
we are not successful in attracting a partner and entering into a
collaboration on acceptable terms, we may not be able to complete
development of or commercialize any product candidate. In such
event, our ability to generate revenues and achieve or sustain
profitability would be significantly hindered and we may not be
able to continue operations as proposed, requiring us to modify our
business plan, curtail various aspects of our operations or cease
operations.
The
coronavirus outbreak has the potential to cause disruptions in our
business, including our clinical development
activities.
The outbreak
of the novel strain of coronavirus, or COVID-19, has currently
impacted and may continue to impact our business, including our
preclinical studies and clinical trials. COVID-19 has spread to
multiple countries, including the United States and Israel, where
the Company conducts its operations.
Efforts to
contain the spread of COVID-19 have intensified and the United
States and Israel, among other countries, have implemented and may
continue to implement severe travel restrictions, shelter in place
orders, social distancing and delays or cancellations of elective
surgeries. These and other disruptions have caused, and may
continue to cause, a delay in the supply of consumable goods, which
could result in further delays and affect our ability to
commercialize and develop our product candidates.
The spread
of an infectious disease, including COVID-19, may also result in a
period of business disruption, and in reduced operations, any of
which could materially affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations. Although, as of the date of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, we do not expect any material impact on our
long-term activity, the extent to which COVID-19 impacts our
business will depend on future developments, which are highly
uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which
may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to
contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others.
