1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND OPERATING SEGMENT
(a) Description of Business
Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Spectrum”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is a biopharma company, with a primary strategy comprised of acquiring, developing, and commercializing a broad and diverse pipeline of clinical and commercial products. We have a full in-house development organization including clinical development, regulatory, quality and data management capabilities, as well as commercial and marketing capabilities upon product launch.
We have two drugs in late-stage development:

Poziotinib, a novel irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor under investigation for non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) tumors with various mutations; and

ROLONTIS, a novel long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating (“G-CSF”) for chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.
We have a technology platform that enables the fusion of an interferon-alpha with a monoclonal anti-body:
Anti-CD20-IFNa, the first antibody-interferon fusion molecule directed against CD20 from this platform that is in Phase 1 development for treating relapsed or refractory Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma patients (including diffuse large b-cell lymphoma).
Our business strategy is to develop our late stage assets through commercialization, while sourcing additional assets that are synergistic with our existing portfolio through acquisitions, in-licensing, or co-development and marketing arrangements.
(b) Basis of Presentation
Interim Financial Statements
The interim financial data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is unaudited and is not necessarily indicative of our operating results for a full year. In the opinion of our management, the interim data includes normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 . Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019 ).
Discontinued Operations - Sale of our Commercial Product Portfolio
On March 1, 2019, we completed the sale of our seven then-commercialized drugs, including FUSILEV, KHAPZORY, FOLOTYN, ZEVALIN , MARQIBO, BELEODAQ, and EVOMELA (the “Commercial Product Portfolio”) to Acrotech Biopharma LLC (“Acrotech”) (the “Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction”). Upon closing we received $158.8 million in an upfront cash payment (of which $4 million is held in escrow). We are also entitled to receive up to an aggregate of $140 million upon Acrotech's achievement of certain regulatory (totaling $40 million ) and sales-based milestones (totaling $100 million ) relating to the Commercial Product Portfolio.
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are recast for all periods presented to reflect the sale of the assets and liabilities associated with our Commercial Product Portfolio, as well as the corresponding revenue-deriving activities and allocable expenses of this commercial business within “discontinued operations” - see Note 11 . We have presented our face financial statements in general conformity with our historical format, even where presented values are $-0- within continuing

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


operations due to required discontinued operations classification for all periods presented. We believe this format provides increased clarity and comparability with our previously filed financial statements, as well as our expectation that these financial statement captions and associated footnote disclosures will remain relevant to our future business activities.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements include the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of Spectrum and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All inter-company accounts and transactions among these legal entities have been eliminated in consolidation. In May 2019, we dissolved Spectrum Pharma Canada, previously consolidated as a “variable interest entity” (as defined under applicable GAAP).
(c) Operating Segment
We operate one reportable operating segment that is focused exclusively on developing (and eventually marketing) oncology and hematology drug products. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , all of our revenue and operating costs and expenses were solely attributable to these activities (and as applicable, currently and retrospectively classified as “discontinued” within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations - see Note 11 ). All of our assets are held in the U.S, except for cash held in certain foreign bank accounts.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make informed estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These amounts may materially differ from the amounts ultimately realized and reported due to the inherent uncertainty of any estimate or assumption. On an on-going basis, our management evaluates its most critical estimates and assumptions, including those related to: (i) gross-to-net revenue adjustments; (ii) the timing of revenue recognition; (iii) the collectability of customer accounts; (iv) whether the cost of our inventories can be recovered; (v) the realization of our tax assets and estimates of our tax liabilities; (vi) the fair value of our investments; (vii) the valuation of our stock options and the periodic expense recognition of stock-based compensation; and (viii) the potential outcome of our ongoing or threatened litigation.
Our accounting policies and estimates that most significantly impact the presented amounts within these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are further described below:
(i) Revenue Recognition
Impact of the Adoption of the New Revenue Recognition Standard : ASU No. 2014-09 , Revenue from Contracts with Customers ( “Topic 606” ), became effective for us on January 1, 2018. Our disclosure within the below sections to this footnote reflects our updated accounting policies that are affected by this new standard. We applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation of Topic 606; this resulted in the recognition of an aggregate $4.7 million , net of tax, decrease to our January 1, 2018 “accumulated deficit” on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. We made no adjustments to our previously-reported total revenues, as those periods continue to be presented in accordance with our historical accounting practices under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”) .
Required Elements of Our Revenue Recognition : Revenue from our (a) product sales, (b) out-license arrangements, and (c) service arrangements is recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of our goods and/or services to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:
(1)
we ensure that we have an executed contract(s) with our customer that we believe is legally enforceable;
(2)
we identify the “performance obligations” in the respective contract;
(3)
we determine the “transaction price” for each performance obligation in the respective contract;
(4)
we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation; and

10


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


(5)
we recognize revenue only when we satisfy each performance obligation.
    These five elements, as applied to each of our revenue categories, are summarized below:
(a) Product Sales : We sell our products to pharmaceutical wholesalers/distributors (i.e., our customers). Our wholesalers/distributors in turn sell our products directly to clinics, hospitals, and private oncology-based practices. Revenue from our product sales is recognized as physical delivery of product occurs (when our customer obtains control of the product), in return for agreed-upon consideration.
Our gross product sales (i.e., delivered units multiplied by the contractual price per unit) are reduced by our corresponding gross-to-net (“GTN”) estimates using the “expected value” method, resulting in our reported “product sales, net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, reflecting the amount we ultimately expect to realize in net cash proceeds, taking into account our current period gross sales and related cash receipts, and the subsequent cash disbursements on these sales that we estimate for the various GTN categories discussed below. These estimates are based upon information received from external sources (such as written or oral information obtained from our customers with respect to their period-end inventory levels and sales to end-users during the period), in combination with management’s informed judgments. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, the actual amount incurred (of some, or all) of product returns, government chargebacks, prompt pay discounts, commercial rebates, Medicaid rebates, and distribution, data, and GPO administrative fees may be materially above or below the amount estimated, then requiring prospective adjustments to our reported net product sales.
These GTN estimate categories (that comprise our GTN liabilities within Note 3(g) ) are each discussed below:
Product Returns Allowances : Our customers are contractually permitted to return certain purchased products within the contractual allowable time before/after its expiration date. Returns outside of this aforementioned criteria are not customarily allowed. We estimate expected product returns using our historical return rates. Returned product is typically destroyed since substantially all are due to its expiry and cannot be resold.
Government Chargebacks : Our products are subject to pricing limits under certain federal government programs (e.g., Medicare and 340B Drug Pricing Program). Qualifying entities (i.e., end-users) purchase products from our customers at their qualifying discounted price. The chargeback amount we incur represents the difference between our contractual sales price to our customer, and the end-user’s applicable discounted purchase price under the government program. There may be significant lag time between our reported net product sales and our receipt of the corresponding government chargeback claims from our customers.
Prompt Pay Discounts : Discounts for prompt payment are estimated at the time of sale, based on our eligible customers’ prompt payment history and the contractual discount percentage.
Commercial Rebates : Commercial rebates are based on (i) our estimates of end-user purchases through a group purchasing organization (“GPO”), (ii) the corresponding contractual rebate percentage tier we expect each GPO to achieve, and (iii) our estimates of the impact of any prospective rebate program changes made by us.
Medicaid Rebates : Our products are subject to state government-managed Medicaid programs, whereby rebates are issued to participating state governments. These rebates arise when a patient treated with our product is covered under Medicaid, resulting in a discounted price for our product under the applicable Medicaid program. Our Medicaid rebate accrual calculations require us to project the magnitude of our sales, by state, that will be subject to these rebates. There is a significant time lag in us receiving rebate notices from each state (generally several months or longer after our sale is recognized). Our estimates are based on our historical claim levels by state, as supplemented by management’s judgment.
Distribution, Data, and GPO Administrative Fees : Distribution, data, and GPO administrative fees are paid to authorized wholesalers/distributors of our products for various commercial services including: contract administration, inventory management, delivery of end-user sales data, and product returns processing. These fees are based on a contractually-determined percentage of our applicable sales.
(b) License Fees : Our out-license arrangements allow licensees to market our product(s) in certain territories for a specific term (representing the out-license of “functional intellectual property”). These arrangements may include one or more of the following forms of consideration: (i) upfront license fees, (ii) sales royalties, (iii) sales milestone-achievement fees, and

11


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


(iv) regulatory milestone-achievement fees. We recognize revenue for each based on the contractual terms that establish our right to collect payment once the performance obligation is achieved, as follows:
(1) Upfront License Fees: We determine whether upfront license fees are earned at the time of contract execution (i.e., when rights transfer to the customer) or over the actual (or implied) contractual period of the out-license. As part of this determination, we evaluate whether we have any other requirements to provide substantive services that are inseparable from the performance obligation of the license transfer. Our customers’ “distinct” rights to licensed “functional intellectual property” at the time of contract execution results in concurrent revenue recognition of all upfront license fees (assuming that there are no other performance obligations at contract execution that are inseparable from this license transfer).

(2) Royalties : Under the “sales-or-usage-based royalty exception” we recognize revenue in the same period that our
licensees complete product sales in their territory for which we are contractually entitled to a percentage-based royalty receipt.

(3) Sales Milestones : Under the “sales-or-usage-based royalty exception” we recognize revenue in full within the period that our licensees achieve annual or aggregate product sales levels in their territories for which we are contractually entitled to a specified lump-sum receipt.

(4) Regulatory Milestones : Under the terms of the respective out-license, regulatory achievements may either be our responsibility, or that of our licensee.

When our licensee is responsible for the achievement of the regulatory milestone, we recognize revenue in full (for the contractual amount due from our licensee) in the period that the approval occurs (i.e., when the “performance obligation” is satisfied by our customer) under the “most likely amount” method. This revenue recognition remains “constrained” (i.e., not recognized) until regulatory approval occurs, given its inherent uncertainty and the requirement of a significant revenue reversal not being probable if achievement does not occur. At each reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of milestone achievement and the associated revenue constraint; any resulting adjustments would be recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis, thus reflected in our financial statements in the period of adjustment.

When we are responsible for the achievement of a regulatory milestone, the “relative selling price method” is applied for purposes of allocating the transaction price to our performance obligations. In such case, we consider (i) the extent of our effort to achieve the milestone and/or the enhancement of the value of the delivered item(s) as a result of milestone achievement and (ii) if the milestone payment is reasonable relative to all of the deliverables and payment terms (including other potential milestone consideration) within the arrangement. We have historically assessed the contractual value of these milestones upon their achievement to be identical to the allocation of value of our performance obligations and thus representing the “transaction price” for each milestone at contract inception. We recognize this revenue in the period that the regulatory approval occurs (i.e., when we complete the “performance obligation”) under the “most likely amount” method, and revenue recognition is otherwise “constrained” until regulatory approval occurs, given its inherent uncertainty and the requirement of a significant revenue reversal not being probable if achievement does not occur. At each reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of milestone achievement and the associated revenue constraint; any resulting adjustments would be recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis, thus reflected in our financial statements in the period of adjustment.
(c) Service Revenue : We receive fees under certain arrangements for (i) sales and marketing services, (ii) supply chain services, (iii) research and development services, and (iv) clinical trial management services.
Our rights to receive payment for these services may be established by (1) a fixed-fee schedule that covers the term of the arrangement, so long as we meet ongoing performance obligations, (2) our completion of product delivery in our capacity as a procurement agent, (3) the successful completion of a phase of drug development, (4) favorable results from a clinical trial, and/or (5) regulatory approval events.
We consider whether revenue associated with these service arrangements is reportable each period, based on our completed services or deliverables (i.e., satisfied “performance obligations”) during the reporting period, and the terms of the

12


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


arrangement that contractually result in fixed payments due to us. The promised service(s) within these arrangements are distinct and explicitly stated within each contract, and our customer benefits from the separable service(s) delivery/completion. Further, the nature of the promise to our customer as stated within the respective contract is to deliver each named service individually (not a transfer of combined items to which the promised goods or services are inputs), and thus are separable for revenue recognition.
(ii) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank deposits and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from the purchase date. Our restricted cash is currently held in an escrow account as part of our completed Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction (see Note 1(b) ).
(iii) Marketable Securities
Our marketable securities consist of our holdings in equity securities, mutual funds, bank certificates of deposit (“Bank CDs”), government-related debt securities, and corporate debt securities. Since we classify these investments as “available-for-sale” any (1) realized gains (losses) or (2) unrealized gains (losses) on these securities are respectively recognized in (1) “other income (expense), net” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, or recognized in (2) “accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholder’s equity on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.
(iv) Accounts Receivable
Our accounts receivable are derived from our product sales and license fees, and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is management’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after appropriate collection efforts are exhausted.
(v) Inventories
We value our inventory at the lower of (i) the actual cost of its purchase or manufacture, or (ii) its net realizable value. Inventory cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method. We regularly review our inventory quantities in process of manufacture and on hand. When appropriate, we record a provision for obsolete and excess inventory to derive its new cost basis, which takes into account our sales forecast by product and corresponding expiry dates of each product lot.
Manufacturing costs of drug products that are pending U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval are exclusively recognized through “research and development” expense on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(vi) Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for equity awards granted to our employees and members of our Board of Directors is recognized on a straight-line basis over each award’s vesting period. Recognized compensation expense is net of an estimated forfeiture rate, representing the percentage of awards that are expected to be forfeited prior to vesting, though is ultimately adjusted for actual forfeitures. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options (as of the date of grant) that have service conditions for vesting. We use the Monte Carlo valuation model to value equity awards (as of the date of grant) that have combined market conditions and service conditions for vesting.
The recognition of stock-based compensation expense and the initial calculation of stock option fair value requires uncertain assumptions, including (a) the pre-vesting forfeiture rate of the award, (b) the expected term that the stock option will remain outstanding, (c) our stock price volatility over the expected term (and that of our designated peer group with respect to certain market-based awards), and (d) the prevailing risk-free interest rate for the period matching the expected term.
With regard to (a)-(d) above: we estimate forfeiture rates based on our employees’ overall forfeiture history, which we believe will be representative of future results. We estimate the expected term of stock options granted based on our employees’ historical exercise patterns, which we believe will be representative of their future behavior. We estimate the volatility of our common stock on the date of grant based on the historical volatility of our common stock for a look-back period that

13


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


corresponds with the expected term. We estimate the risk-free interest rate based upon the U.S. Department of the Treasury yields in effect at award grant, for a period equaling the expected term of the stock option.
(vii) Basic and Diluted Net (Loss) Income per Share
We calculate basic and diluted net (loss) income per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. In periods of a net loss, basic and diluted loss per share are the same. For the diluted earnings per share calculation, we adjust the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to include only dilutive stock options, warrants, and other common stock equivalents outstanding during the period.
(viii) Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the financial statements, as well as operating losses and tax credit carry forwards using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, the timing and amount of which are uncertain.
We have recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets, because we believe that, based upon a weighting of positive and negative factors, it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized. If/when we were to determine that our deferred tax assets are realizable, an adjustment to the corresponding valuation allowance would increase our net income in the period that such determination was made.
In the event that we are assessed interest and/or penalties from taxing authorities that have not been previously accrued, such amounts would be included in “benefit (provision) for income taxes from continuing operations” within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period in which we received the notice.
(ix) Research and Development Costs
Our research and development costs are expensed as incurred (see Note 9(c) ), or as certain milestone payments become contractually due to our licensors, as triggered by the achievement of clinical or regulatory events.
(x) Fair Value Measurements
We determine measurement-date fair value based on the proceeds that would be received through the sale of the asset, or that we would pay to settle or transfer the liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. We utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include the following:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are publicly accessible at the measurement date.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but that are corroborated by market data. These inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or quoted market prices in markets that are not active to the general public.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.
3. BALANCE SHEET ACCOUNT DETAIL
The composition of selected financial statement captions that comprise the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are summarized below:
(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

14


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , our “cash and cash equivalents” were held with major financial institutions. As of June 30, 2019, our “marketable securities” include our equity holdings in CASI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“CASI”), mutual funds, government-related debt securities, corporate debt securities, and bank certificates of deposits (“bank CDs”).
We maintain cash balances in excess of federally insured limits with select financial institutions. To a limited degree, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and other third parties insure these deposits. However, these cash deposits are not insured against the possibility of a complete loss of principal and are inherently subject to the credit risk of the corresponding financial institution.
Our investment policy requires that purchased investments may only be in highly-rated and liquid financial instruments and limits our holdings of any single issuer (excluding any debt or equity securities received from our strategic partners in connection with licensing arrangements, as discussed in Note 7 ).
 
The carrying amount of our equity securities, money market funds, and Bank CDs approximates their fair value (utilizing “ Level 1” or “ Level 2” inputs – see Note 2(x) ) because of our ability to immediately convert these instruments into cash with minimal expected change in value. As of June 30, 2019 , no ne of the securities that we hold were in an unrealized loss position with respect to our cost basis.

* Beginning January 1, 2018, under the requirements of ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities , the unrealized gain (loss) on our CASI equity securities are recognized as an increase (decrease) to “other income (expense), net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (rather than through “other comprehensive income (loss)” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income). Our adoption of ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 resulted in a $17.2 million cumulative-effect adjustment, net of income tax, reported as a decrease to “accumulated other comprehensive loss” and a decrease to “accumulated deficit” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our unrealized gain (loss) on these equity securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $0.4 million and $(11.8) million , respectively, as reported in “other income (expense), net” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
** Beginning in the second quarter of 2019, we purchased government and corporate debt securities. We have classified these as “available-for-sale” since we may redeem or sell these investments before their stated maturity to fund our operations. Under the requirements of ASC 320, Investments - Debt and Equity Securities: (i) we record these securities at initial “book value” and then amortize, through maturity, the determined “discount” or “premium” within “interest income” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and (ii) we recognize the “unrealized gains” of these securities (i.e., June 30, 2019 fair value versus amortized book value) as a separate component of “accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 .

* The reported amount of “deferred compensation investments” is based on the cash surrender value of life insurance policies of named current and former employees at each period-end. The reported amount of “deferred executive compensation liability” is based on the period-end market value of mutual fund investments selected by employee participants of the deferred compensation plan.
We did not have any transfers between “Level 1” and “Level 2” (see Note 2(x) ) measurement categories for any periods presented except for “money market funds” included within Level 1 as of June 30, 2019 that remain presented within Level 2 as of December 31, 2018. We believe this change is appropriate since these money market funds have quoted daily prices in active markets that are publicly accessible.
Our carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their related fair values due to their short-term nature.

7. CASI HOLDINGS AND EVOMELA SUPPLY CONTRACT
Overview of CASI Transaction
In 2014, we executed three perpetual out-license agreements for our former products ZEVALIN, MARQIBO, and EVOMELA (“CASI Out-Licensed Products”) with CASI, a publicly-traded biopharmaceutical company (NASDAQ: CASI) with a primary focus on the China market (collectively, the “CASI Out-License”). Under the CASI Out-License, we received

20


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


CASI common stock and a secured promissory note and CASI gained the exclusive rights to distribute the CASI Out-Licensed Products in greater China (which includes Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau).
On March 1, 2019, we completed the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction (see Note 1(b) ) and substantially all of the contractual rights and obligations associated with these products, including the CASI Out-License, were transferred to Acrotech at closing. However, we will tentatively supply CASI with EVOMELA under an active contract not yet assumed by Acrotech (see Note 3(h) ). After we fulfill this open order, Acrotech will assume all future supply of this product to CASI and we will not have any further involvement with this arrangement.

Our Ownership in CASI at June 30, 2019

Under certain conditions that expired in December 2017, we exercised our rights during 2016 and 2017 to purchase additional shares of CASI common stock at par value in order to maintain our post-investment ownership percentage. Our aggregate holding of 10.0 million CASI common shares as of June 30, 2019 represented an approximate 10.5% ownership with a fair market value of $32.2 million (see Note 3(a) ) . In April 2019, we completed the sale of 1.5 million of these shares under a forward-sales contract and recognized a $2.7 million gain within “other income (expense), net” within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 .
8. CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES AND INTEREST EXPENSE

Overview of 2013 Convertible Notes
On December 17, 2013, we entered into an agreement for the sale of $120 million aggregate principal amount of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2013 Convertible Notes”). During 2016 and 2017 we completed certain open market purchases to retire $79.5 million of principal. Maturity of the 2013 Convertible Notes occurred on December 15, 2018 and substantially all remaining notes were converted into our common stock at a rate of 95 shares per $1,000 principal units.
Components of Interest Expense on 2013 Convertible Notes

9. FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENCIES AND KEY LICENSE AGREEMENTS

(a) Facility and Equipment Leases
Overview
In the ordinary course of our business, we enter into leases with unaffiliated parties for the use of (i) office and research facilities and (ii) office equipment. Our current leases have remaining terms ranging from less than one year to five years . None include any residual value guarantees, restrictive covenants, term extension, or early-termination options.
 
Our facility leases have minimum annual rents, payable monthly, and some carry fixed annual rent increases. Under some of these arrangements, real estate taxes, insurance, certain operating expenses, and common area maintenance are reimbursable to the lessor. These amounts are expensed as incurred, as they are variable in nature and therefore excluded from the

21


Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


measurement of our reported lease asset and liability discussed below. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , we had no sublease arrangements.
Adoption of the New Lease Accounting Standard
    Beginning January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ Topic 842 ”). Under this new lease accounting standard, we recognized a "right-of-use asset" and "lease liability" on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for all leases (except for any lease with an original term of less than 12 months). We elected the “optional transition method” upon adoption of Topic 842 and the available practical expedients. Accordingly, we did not reassess (i) lease classification (as either operating or financing) or (ii) initial direct costs for existing leases.
  
This reported asset and liability, respectively, represents (i) the economic benefit of our use of leased facilities and equipment and (ii) the present-value of our contractual minimum lease payments, applying our estimated incremental borrowing rate as of the lease commencement date (since an implicit interest rate is not readily determinable in any of our leases). We recorded $4.2 million to our January 1, 2019 balance sheet for both (i) our right-of-use asset within “facility and equipment under lease” and (ii) our lease liability within “accounts payable and accrued liabilities” and “other long-term liabilities.” The recorded asset and liability associated with each lease is amortized over the respective lease term using the “effective interest rate” method.

We elected to (1) not separate “lease components” from “non-lease components” in our measurement of minimum payments for (i) facility leases and (ii) office equipment leases and (2) not recognize a lease asset and liability for a term of 12 months or less.
    
We recognize lease expense on a straight-line basis over the expected term of these operating leases, as reported within “selling, general and administrative” expense on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , this expense aggregated $0.6 million , $0.4 million , $1.1 million and $0.9 million , respectively.

(b) In/Out Licensing Agreements and Co-Development Arrangements
Overview

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(all tabular amounts presented in thousands, except share, per share, interest rate, and number of years)
(Unaudited)


The in-license agreements for our development-stage drug products provide us with territory-specific rights to their manufacture and distribution (including further sub-licensing/out-licensing rights). We are generally responsible for all related clinical development costs, patent filings and maintenance costs, marketing costs, and liability insurance costs. We are also obligated to make specified milestone payments to our licensors upon the achievement of certain regulatory and sales milestones, and to pay royalties based on our net sales of all in-licensed products. We also may enter into out-license agreements for territory-specific rights to these drug products which include one or more of: upfront license fees, royalties from our licensees’ sales, and/or milestone payments from our licensees’ sales or regulatory achievements. For certain drug products, we may enter into cost-sharing arrangements with licensees and licensors.
Impact of Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction on Rights and Obligations associated with the Product Portfolio
On March 1, 2019, we completed the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction and substantially all of the contractual rights and obligations associated with the Product Portfolio that were previously disclosed in Note 17(b) to our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K were transferred to Acrotech at closing. However, under the terms of this transaction we retained our trade “accounts receivable” and GTN liabilities included within “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” (see Note 3(g) ) associated with our product sales made on and prior to February 28, 2019.
Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are recast for all periods presented to reflect the sale of the assets and liabilities associated with our Product Portfolio, as well as the corresponding revenue-deriving activities and allocable expenses of this commercial business within “discontinued operations” - see Notes 1 and 11 . The most significant remaining agreements associated with our continuing operations are listed below, along with the key financial terms and our corresponding accounting and reporting conventions for each:
(i) ROLONTIS: Co-Development and Commercialization Agreement with Hanmi Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd
In October 2014, we exercised our option under a License Option and Research Collaboration Agreement dated January 2012 (as amended) with Hanmi Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., or Hanmi, for ROLONTIS (formerly referred to as “LAPS-G-CSF” or “SPI-2012”), a drug based on Hanmi’s proprietary LAPSCOVERY™ technology for the treatment of chemotherapy induced neutropenia. Under the terms of this agreement, as amended, we have primary financial responsibility for the ROLONTIS development plan and hold its worldwide rights (except for Korea, China, and Japan). We are contractually obligated to pay Hanmi tiered royalties that range from the low double-digits to mid-teen on our net sales of ROLONTIS.
In January 2016, the first patient was dosed with ROLONTIS as part of our clinical trial. This triggered our contractual milestone payment to Hanmi, and in April 2016, we issued 318,750 shares of our common stock to Hanmi. We are responsible for further contractual payments upon the achievement, at our expense, of a regulatory milestone for $10 million and sales milestones of up to $120 million per calendar year.
Depending on the nature of the milestone achievement we will either (a) capitalize the value to “intangible assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets or (b) recognize the value within “research and development” or “cost of product sales” within Consolidated Statements of Operations. The corresponding payment due to this licensor will be recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” in the earliest period that we determine the respective milestone achievement is probable or occurs.
(ii) Poziotinib: In-License Agreement with Hanmi and Exclusive Patent and Technology License Agreement with MD Anderson
In February 2015, we executed an in-license agreement with Hanmi for poziotinib, a pan-HER inhibitor in Phase 2 clinical trials, (which has also shown single agent activity in the treatment of various cancer types during Phase 1 studies, including breast, gastric, colorectal, and lung cancers) and made an upfront payment for these rights.
Under the terms of this agreement, we received the exclusive rights to commercialize poziotinib, excluding Korea and China. Hanmi and its development partners are fully responsible for the completion of on-going Phase 2 trials in Korea. We are financially responsible for all other clinical studies. We are contractually obligated to make payments to Hanmi upon the achievement, at our expense, of various regulatory milestones aggregating $33 million and sales milestones of up to $325 million . We are also contractually obligated to pay Hanmi royalties in the low to mid-teen digits on our net sales of poziotinib, potentially reduced by royalties due to other third parties.
Depending on the nature of the milestone achievement we will either (a) capitalize the value to “intangible assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets or (b) recognize the value within “research and development” or “cost of product sales” within Consolidated Statements of Operations. The corresponding payment due to this licensor will be recognized in the Consolidated

Balance Sheets within “other accrued liabilities” in the earliest period that we determine the respective milestone achievement is probable or occurs.
In April 2018, we executed an exclusive patent and technology agreement for the use of poziotinib in treating patients with EGFR and HER2 exon 20 mutations in cancer and HER2 exon 19 mutations in cancer with The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (“MD Anderson”) that had discovered its use in treating these patient-types (“Exon 19/20 Patients”) and made an upfront payment for these rights.
We are contractually obligated to pay nominal fixed annual license maintenance fees to MD Anderson and pay additional fees upon the achievement, at our expense, of various regulatory milestones aggregating $9 million and sales milestones of up to $30 million . We are also contractually obligated to pay MD Anderson royalties in the low single-digits on our net sales of poziotinib, potentially reduced by royalties due to other third parties.
Depending on the nature of the milestone achievement we will either (a) capitalize the value to “intangible assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets or (b) recognize the value within “research and development” or “cost of product sales” within Consolidated Statements of Operations. The corresponding payment due to this licensor will be recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” in the earliest period that we determine the respective milestone achievement is probable or occurs.
(iii) In-License Agreement with ImmunGene for FIT Drug Delivery Platform and Two Early-Stage Drugs
In April 2019, we executed an asset transfer, license, and sublicense agreement with ImmunGene, Inc. (“ImmunGene”) for an exclusive license for the intellectual property related to the Focused Interferon Therapeutics (“FIT”) drug delivery platform and two early-stage drugs: (i) Anti-CD20-IFNa, an antibody-interferon fusion molecule directed against CD20 that is in Phase 1 development for treating relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including diffuse large b-cell lymphoma patients, representing a considerable unmet medical need and (ii) an antibody-interferon fusion molecule directed against GRP94, a target for which currently there are no existing approved therapies that has the potential for treating both solid and hematologic malignancies.
We made upfront payments aggregating $2.8 million to ImmunGene and to several other third parties, all of which were recorded within “research and development” expense within our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 . We will make further payments to ImmunGene upon our achievement, at our expense, of various regulatory milestones that aggregate $26.1 million , plus an additional $5 million milestone payment for each new indication (beyond those described above) approved for either drug in the U.S., Europe, or Japan.
Our contractual royalties to ImmunGene are in the high-single digits on our net sales of each drug, potentially reduced by our royalties due to other third parties. We are also contractually obligated to pay nominal fixed annual license maintenance fees to two FIT platform licensors.
Depending on the nature of the milestone achievement we will either (a) capitalize the value to “intangible assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets or (b) recognize the value within “research and development” or “cost of product sales” within Consolidated Statements of Operations. The corresponding payment due to this licensor will be recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” in the earliest period that we determine the respective milestone achievement is probable or occurs.
(c) Service Agreements for Research and Development Activities
We have entered into various contracts with numerous third party service providers for the execution of our research and development initiatives (to which we assign discreet project codes in order to compile and monitor such expenses). These vendors include raw material suppliers and contract manufacturers for drug products not yet FDA approved, clinical trial sites, clinical research organizations, and data monitoring centers, among others. The financial terms of these agreements are varied and generally obligate us to pay in stages, depending on the achievement of certain events specified in the agreements - such as contract execution, progress of service completion, delivery of drug supply, and the dosing of patients in clinical studies.
We recognize these “research and development” expenses and corresponding “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” in the accompanying financial statements based on estimates of our vendors’ progress of performed services, patient enrollments and dosing, completion of clinical studies, and other events. Should we decide to discontinue and/or slow-down the work on any project, the associated costs for those projects would typically be limited to the extent of the work completed, as we are generally able to terminate these contracts with adequate notice.

(Unaudited)


(d) Supply and Service Agreements Associated with Product Production
We have entered into various agreements and/or have issued purchase orders to vendors which obligate us to agreed-upon raw material purchases from certain vendors and purchase drug production services through designated contract manufacturers. These commitments do not exceed our planned commercial requirements and the contracted prices for these goods and services do not exceed current fair market values.
(e) Employment Agreements
We entered into revised employment agreements with each of our named executive officers (chief executive officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, chief legal officer, and chief medical officer) in April/June 2018 and June 2019, which supersede any prior Change in Control Severance Agreements with such individuals. These agreements provide for the payment of certain benefits to each executive upon his separation of employment under specified circumstances. These arrangements are designed to encourage each to act in the best interests of our stockholders at all times during the course of a change in control event or other significant transaction.
(f) Deferred Compensation Plan
The Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “DC Plan”) is administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors and is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
The DC Plan is maintained to provide special benefits for a select group of our employees (the “DC Participants”). DC Participants make annual elections to defer a portion of their eligible cash compensation which is then placed into their DC Plan accounts. We match a fixed percentage of these deferrals, and may make additional discretionary contributions. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the aggregate value of this DC Plan liability was $7.4 million and $6.2 million , respectively, and is included within “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” and “other long-term liabilities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(g) Litigation
We are involved from time-to-time with various legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims and legal proceedings are of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to a pharmaceutical business, and may include product liability, intellectual property, employment matters, and other general claims. We may also be subject to derivative lawsuits from time to time.
We make provisions for liabilities when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Such provisions are assessed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of any settlement negotiations, judicial and administrative rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. Although the ultimate resolution of these various matters cannot be determined at this time, we do not believe that such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.
Stockholder Litigation
Olutayo Ayeni v. Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al. (Filed September 21, 2016 in the United States District Court, Central District of California; Case No. 2:16-cv-07074) (the “Ayeni Action”) and Glen Hartsock v. Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al. (Filed September 28, 2016 in the United States District Court, District Court of Nevada Case; No. 2:16-cv-02279-RFB-GWF) (the “Hartsock Action”). On November 15, 2016, the Ayeni Action was transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. The parties have stipulated to a consolidation of the Ayeni Action with the Hartsock Action. These class action lawsuits allege that we and certain of our executive officers made false or misleading statements and failed to disclose material facts about our business and the prospects of approval for our New Drug Application to the FDA for QAPZOLA in violation of Section 10(b) (and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
On July 23, 2019, we entered into a memorandum of understanding with these plaintiffs for a collective settlement that is pending court approval. The value of this proposed settlement is included within “other receivables” (see Note 3(d) ) and “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” on the accompanying June 30, 2019 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

10. INCOME TAXES
We apply an estimated annual effective tax rate (“ETR”) approach for calculating a tax provision for interim periods, as required under GAAP. We recorded a benefit for income taxes from continuing operations of $8.5 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our ETR differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% primarily as a result of nondeductible expenses and the impact of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.
Our provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined using the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not the future realization of all or some of the deferred tax assets will not be achieved. The evaluation of the need for a valuation allowance is performed on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis, and includes a review of all available positive and negative evidence. We recognize the impact of a tax position in our financial statements only if that position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions will be reflected in income tax expense.
The intraperiod tax allocation guidance requires that we allocate income taxes between continuing operations and other categories of earnings. When we have a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and year-to-date pre-tax income in discontinued operations, applicable GAAP ( ASC 740-20-45-7 ) requires that we allocate the income tax provision to other categories of earnings (including discontinued operations), and then record a related tax benefit in continuing operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , we recognized net income from discontinued operations while sustaining losses from continuing operations. Because of the required allocation, we recorded an income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 of $8.5 and $0.7 million , respectively, within “benefit (provision) for income taxes from continuing operations” and income tax expense of $7.0 million and $0.7 million , respectively, within “income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , we recorded an income tax benefit of $0.2 million and income tax expense of $0.4 million , respectively, within “benefit (provision) for income taxes from continuing operations,” and income tax expense of $0.2 million and income tax benefit of $0.4 million , respectively, within “income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Our net tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , prior to the application of intraperiod tax allocation guidance was $0 and $1.5 million , respectively. The $1.5 million tax benefit arose from the reversal of deferred tax liabilities recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2018 that were associated with indefinite-lived intangible assets that were sold as part of our Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction. The tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , prior to the application of intraperiod tax allocation guidance was $3 thousand and $6 thousand , respectively.
11. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Overview
On March 1, 2019, we completed the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction -- see Note 1(b) (as we first announced on January 17, 2019 on Form 8-K, upon the signing of a definitive asset purchase agreement).
In accordance with applicable GAAP ( ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements ), the revenue-deriving activities and allocable expenses of our sold commercial operation, as well as the assets and liabilities connected to the Commercial Product Portfolio, are separately classified as “discontinued” for all periods presented within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

*This pre-tax gain on sale represents the $158.8 million proceeds from the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction less our $121.2 book value of transferred net assets (inclusive of assumed liabilities) to Acrotech on the March 1, 2019 closing date, less legal and banker fees for the six months ended June 30, 2019 aggregating $3.9 million .
**This income tax provision (benefit) represents an allocation of taxes as required under intraperiod allocation guidance (see Note 10 ). Due to our aggregate net operating loss-carryforwards, no federal or state income tax payments are expected to be made relating to our current year activity, inclusive of our recognized gain on sale of the Commercial Product Portfolio.
***The “Product sales, net” is inclusive of our commercial product sales for January and February 2019, as well as recognized EVOMELA product sales during the second quarter of 2019 to a single customer under an active contract not yet assumed by Acrotech (see Note 7 ). The negative revenue value for the second quarter of 2019 reflects actual government chargeback claims we received during the three months ended June 30, 2019 that were in excess of our estimated allowance for government chargebacks (see Note 3(g) ).
****The “Restructuring - employee severance” negative value in the second quarter of 2019 reflects a current period reclassification to continuing operations “selling, general and administrative” and “research and development” expenses within the accompanying Statements of Operations. This $2.4 million amount was previously included within “income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes” in the first quarter of 2019.
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
Accounts receivable derived from our product sales on and prior to February 28, 2019 were not transferred to Acrotech as part of Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction, nor were our GTN liabilities and trade accounts payable assumed by Acrotech that were associated with our commercial activities on and prior to February 28, 2019 (see Note 3(g) ). Accordingly, these specific assets and liabilities remain presented within “accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts” and “accounts payable and other accrued liabilities” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

12. RESTRUCTURING COSTS RELATED TO SALE OF COMMERCIAL PRODUCT PORTFOLIO
Employee Severance
On March 1, 2019, we completed the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction (see Note 1(b) ) and 87 of our employees were (1) terminated March 1, 2019 or (2) given notice of May 31, 2019 termination and asked to provide transition services for the benefit of Acrotech through that date (as provided by a transition services agreement with Acrotech entered contemporaneously with our sale). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , we recognized $0.5 million and $0.7 million of income for services rendered to Acrotech under this agreement within “other income (expense), net” on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The employees in (1) above were entitled to cash severance payments and acceleration of their unvested restricted stock awards and stock options. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 , we fully recognized the aggregate value of $5.1 million for this severance benefit, of which $3.9 million , $1.0 million , and $0.2 million is included on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within “income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes” (see Note 11 ), “selling, general, and administrative” expenses and “research and development” expenses, respectively.
The employees in (2) above were also entitled to cash severance payments and acceleration of their unvested restricted stock awards and stock options, though on May 31, 2019. The aggregate value of these one-time cash payments and stock-based award accelerations was $0.5 million . Due to then ongoing service requirements of these employees, we amortized this value through expense on a ratable basis beginning March 1, 2019 through May 31, 2019. For the three and six months ended

29

June 30, 2019 , we recognized $0.3 million and $0.5 million for this severance benefit, which is included within “selling, general, and administrative” expenses on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and within “accrued payroll and benefits” and “additional paid-in capital” (for stock-based awards) on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Unpaid cash severance for our former employees was $0.4 million at June 30, 2019 , and is recorded within “accrued payroll and benefits” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

13. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Sale of Common Stock Under ATM Agreement
We entered into a new collective at-market-issuance (ATM) sales agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC and B. Riley FBR, Inc. (the “April 2019 ATM Agreement”) connected to our automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR, filed with the SEC on April 5, 2019.
The April 2019 ATM Agreement allows us to raise aggregate gross proceeds of $150 million from the periodic sales of our common stock on the public market. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we raised aggregate net proceeds of $1.8 million under this ATM. These proceeds and any future proceeds raised will support the advancement of our in-development drug candidates, activities in connection with the launch of our in-development drug candidates, including hiring and building inventory supply, making acquisitions of assets, businesses, companies or securities, capital expenditures, and for working capital.

Company Overview
Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Spectrum”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is a biopharma company, with a primary strategy comprised of acquiring, developing, and commercializing a broad and diverse pipeline of clinical and commercial products. We have a full in-house development organization including clinical development, regulatory, quality and data management capabilities, as well as commercial and marketing capabilities upon product launch.

31



We have two drugs in late-stage development:
Poziotinib, a novel irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor under investigation for non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) tumors with various mutations; and

ROLONTIS, a novel long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating (“G-CSF”) for chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.
We have a technology platform that enables the fusion of an interferon-alpha with a monoclonal anti-body:
Anti-CD20-IFNa, the first antibody-interferon fusion molecule directed against CD20 from this platform that is in Phase 1 development for treating relapsed or refractory Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma patients (including diffuse large b-cell lymphoma).
Our business strategy is to develop our late stage assets through commercialization, while sourcing additional assets that are synergistic with our existing portfolio through acquisitions, in-licensing, or co-development and marketing arrangements.
Recent Highlights of Our Business, Product Development Initiatives, and Regulatory Approvals
During the six months ended June 30, 2019 , we continued our strategic shift in our business following the completion of the sale of our legacy commercialized drug portfolio. We also continued to make meaningful progress in the advancement of our product pipeline, as summarized below:
Sale of Our Commercial Product Portfolio:
On March 1, 2019, we completed the sale of our seven then-commercialized drugs, including: FUSILEV, KHAPZORY, FOLOTYN, ZEVALIN , MARQIBO, BELEODAQ, and EVOMELA (the “Commercial Product Portfolio”) to Acrotech Biopharma LLC (“Acrotech”) (the “Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction”). Upon the closing of the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction, we received $158.8 million in an upfront cash payment (of which $4 million is held in escrow). We are also entitled to receive up to an aggregate of $140 million upon Acrotech's achievement of certain regulatory and sales-based milestones relating to this Product Portfolio.
Poziotinib, an irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor:
In September 2018, we announced preliminary poziotinib data from the University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center ("MD Anderson") Phase 2 NSCLC study which were released during an oral presentation at the IASLC 19th World Conference on Lung Cancer. The MD Anderson study is the single largest data set of patients with an exon 20 mutation in EGFR or HER2.  This Phase 2 study demonstrated high anti-tumor activity for poziotinib in metastatic, heavily pretreated EGFR exon 20 mutant NSCLC, a group for which no targeted agents have proved to be effective to date. This data is summarized below:
In 44 evaluable patients with EGFR exon-20 mutations, the confirmed overall response rate was 43% and disease control rate was 90%. Median progression free survival was 5.5 months.
In evaluable patients with HER2 exon-20 mutations, the confirmed overall response rate was 42% and disease control rate was 83%. Median progression free survival was 5.1 months.
EGFR-related toxicities (including rash, diarrhea, and paronychia) were manageable and required dose reductions in 60% of patients. Discontinuation due to poor tolerance was rare (approximately 3% of patients).

In July 2019, we announced our expansion of the poziotinib clinical program by adding three new cohorts to the ZENITH20 clinical trial in the U.S., Canada, and Europe to further evaluate the impact of poziotinib treatment on NSCLC patients. Accordingly, the ZENITH20 trial now consists of seven cohorts of NSCLC patients: Cohorts 1 (EGFR) and 2 (HER2) were previously-treated for EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations. Cohort 3 (EGFR) and 4 (HER2) are in the first-line treatment setting and are currently enrolling patients. Cohorts 1- 4 are each independently powered for a pre-specified statistical hypothesis and the primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR). Additional endpoints include duration of response (DOR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Cohort 5 includes previously treated or treatment-naïve NSCLC patients with EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations. Cohort 6 includes NSCLC patients with classical EGFR mutations who progressed while on treatment with first-line osimertinib and developed an additional EGFR mutation. Cohort 7 includes NSCLC patients with a variety of less common mutations in EGFR or HER2 exons 18-21 or the extracellular or transmembrane domains. Cohorts 1 and 2 are fully enrolled and we are currently enrolling patients in Cohorts 3-7.

32



We expect to announce topline clinical results from Cohort 1 in the fourth quarter of 2019, and expect topline results for Cohort 2 in mid-2020.
ROLONTIS, a novel long-acting G-CSF:
On June 2, 2019, integrated results from our two identically designed Phase 3 trials - ADVANCE and RECOVER - were presented during a poster session at the 2019 Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology. The integrated efficacy and safety data from both trials were consistent with results from the individual trials, demonstrating that ROLONTIS was non-inferior to pegfilgrastim in the reduction of duration of severe neutropenia in all four cycles of treatment. The integrated data also demonstrated that eflapegrastim provided an absolute risk reduction of severe neutropenia of 6.5% compared to pegfilgrastim in Cycle 1.
We submitted our Biologics License Application ("BLA") with the FDA in December 2018. However, in March 2019, we voluntarily withdrew this BLA due to the FDA’s request for additional manufacturing-related information for ROLONTIS that requires our additional documentation. The FDA did not cite concerns related to the pre-clinical and clinical modules of the BLA or the need for additional clinical studies. We continue to update this BLA and expect to submit a revised filing during the fourth quarter of 2019.

Selling, General and Administrative . Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.8 million in the current period. This increase is primarily due to $1.8 million of reclassifications made to this account in the current period that were previously presented within “discontinued operations” in the first quarter of 2019 (see Note 11 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations), partially offset by $1.1 million of legal and consulting costs (substantially related to non-recurring legal expense associated with the termination of our former chief executive officer).
Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by $0.4 million in the current period. The increase is primarily due to (i) $0.6 million of reclassifications made to this account in the current period that were previously presented within “discontinued operations” in the first quarter of 2019 (see Note 11 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations) and (ii) $2.8 million upfront payment made to third-party licensors for an exclusive license for the intellectual property related to the FIT drug delivery platform and two early stage drugs (see Note 9(b)(iii) ). These increases were partially offset by (i) $1.9 million decrease in ROLONTIS manufacturing and development costs and (ii) $1.1 million decrease in ROLONTIS clinical trial expenses with the completion of the ADVANCE and RECOVER clinical studies in the first-half of 2018.

Total other income decreased by $43.1 million primarily due to (i) $48.1 million decrease in unrealized gain for the mark-to-market of our CASI equity securities in the current period (see Note 3(a) to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). The decrease in other income related to our CASI equity securities was partially offset in the current period by (i) $2.7 million of realized gain from the sale of 1.5 million shares of CASI through a forward-sales contract that settled in April 2019 (see Note 7 ), (ii) $0.9 million interest expense decrease due to the December 2018 maturity of our 2013 Convertible Notes (see Note 8 ), (iii) $0.8 million increase in interest income on our money-market investments (see Note 3(a) ), and (iv) $0.5 million of invoiced services rendered to Acrotech as part of a transition services agreement (see Note 12 ).

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , we reported pre-tax losses from continuing operations and pre-tax income from discontinued operations. This requires our application of intraperiod tax allocation guidance (see Note 10 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), resulting in the presented income tax benefit (provision) values (though is not indicative of income tax refunds due to us).  Further, the current period income tax benefit (provision) value in each period is substantially offset by the corresponding income tax benefit (provision) within “discontinued operations” (see Note 11 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and “other comprehensive income (loss)” within stockholders’ equity.

Selling, General and Administrative . Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million in the current period. This increase is primarily due to $1.5 million of severance expense in the current period related to the Commercial Product Portfolio transaction (see Note 12 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), partially offset by $1.3 million of decreased legal and consulting costs (substantially related to non-recurring legal expense associated with the termination of our former chief executive officer).
Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by $8.9 million in the current period. This increase is primarily due to (i) $6.9 million of additional manufacturing, development, and consulting costs associated with ROLONTIS, (ii) $2 million increase of clinical and development initiatives for poziotinib, (iii) $2.8 million upfront payment made to third-party licensors for an exclusive license for the intellectual property related to the FIT drug delivery platform and two early stage drugs (see Note 9(b)(iii) ), and (iv) $0.3 million of severance expense in the current period related to the Commercial Product Portfolio transaction (see Note 12 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). These increases were partially offset by $3.4 million decrease in ROLONTIS clinical trial expenses with the completion of the ADVANCE and RECOVER clinical studies in the first-half of 2018.

The recognized expense from this decline in CASI stock value was partially offset in the current period by (i) $2.7 million of realized gain from the sale of 1.5 million shares of CASI through a forward-sales contract that settled in April 2019 (see Note 7 ), (ii) $1.8 million interest expense decrease due to the December 2018 maturity of our 2013 Convertible Notes (see Note 8 ), (iii) $1.2 million increase in interest income on our our money-market investments (see Note 3(a) ), (iv) $0.8 million increase in the value of deferred compensation plan assets (see Notes 3(e) and 3(i) ), and (v) $0.7 million of invoiced services rendered to Acrotech as part of a transition services agreement (see Note 12 ).

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $76.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $39.2 million in the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , our cash collections from customers totaled $42.7 million and $64.8 million , respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , our cash payments for products, services, chargebacks, and rebates to our employees, vendors, and product end-users totaled $127.6 million and $116.0 million , respectively.
Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $35.0 million  for the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to $4.1 million during the prior year period. The cash provided by investing activities for the six months of 2019 substantially relates to (i) $158.8 million of proceeds received from the sale of our Commercial Product Portfolio (see Note 11 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and (ii) $5.1 million of proceeds received from our sale of CASI stock (see Note 7 ). These proceeds were partially offset by (i) $127.6 million of purchases of available-for-sale securities beginning in the three months ended June 30, 2019 (see Note 3(a) to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and (ii) $1.2 million of equipment purchases for ROLONTIS manufacture (see Note 3(b) ).

36



Net Cash Provided by (Used In) Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to net cash used in financing activities of $17.5 million in the prior year period. Our cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2019 relates to (i) $3.9 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock because of the exercise of employee stock options, (ii) $1.8 million of proceeds received from common shares sold under an at-the-market-issuance sales agreement (see Note 13 to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), and (iii) $0.4 million of proceeds from employee stock purchases under our employee stock purchase plan. In the prior year, we operated as the counterparty when our employees exercised stock options or had RSA vesting, concurrently retired such shares, and made tax remittances on behalf of these employees, resulting in a $27.7 million use of cash that did not recur in current year period.

Sale of Common Stock Under ATM Agreements
We entered into a new collective at-market-issuance (ATM) sales agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC and B. Riley FBR, Inc. (the “April 2019 ATM Agreement”) connected to our automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR, filed with the SEC on April 5, 2019.
The April 2019 ATM Agreement allows us to raise aggregate gross proceeds of $150 million from the periodic sales of our common stock on the public market. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we raised aggregate gross net proceeds of $1.8 million under this ATM. These proceeds and any future proceeds raised will support the advancement of our in-development drug candidates, activities in connection with the launch of our in-development drug candidates, including hiring and building inventory supply, making acquisitions of assets, businesses, companies or securities, capital expenditures, and for working capital.
Future Capital Requirements
We believe that the future growth of our business will depend on our ability to successfully develop and acquire new drugs for the treatment of cancer and successfully bring these drugs to market.
The timing and amount of our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:  
the need for additional capital to fund future development programs;
the need for additional capital to fund strategic acquisitions;
the need for additional capital to fund licensing arrangements;
our requirement for additional information technology infrastructure and systems; and
adverse outcomes from potential litigation and the cost to defend such litigation.
We believe that our $282 million in aggregate cash and equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash as of June 30, 2019 will allow us to fund our current and planned operations into 2020. However, we may seek additional capital through the sale of debt or equity securities, if necessary, especially in conjunction with opportunistic acquisitions or licensing arrangements. We may be unable to obtain such additional capital on terms favorable to us or our current stockholders, if at all.

Proceeds From the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction
On March 1, 2019, we completed the sale of our commercialized Product Portfolio to Acrotech (See Note 1(b) ) to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Upon the closing of the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction, we received $158.8 million in an upfront cash payment (of which $4 million is held in escrow). We are also entitled to receive up to an aggregate of $140 million upon Acrotech's achievement of certain regulatory and sales-based milestones relating to the Commercial Product Portfolio.
We are using the proceeds from the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction to advance our in-development drug pipeline, as well as providing for our general working capital requirements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that provide financing, liquidity, market or credit risk support, or involve derivatives. In addition, we have no arrangements that may expose us to liability that are not expressly reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and/or notes thereto.

37



As of June 30, 2019 , we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as “structured finance” or “special purpose entities,” established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not subject to any material financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
On March 1, 2019, we completed the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction. Substantially all of the contractual rights and obligations associated with the Product Portfolio were transferred to Acrotech at closing as previously disclosed in Note 17(b) and our Contractual Obligations table for applicable “purchase orders” and “contingent milestone obligations” and “drug development liability” within Item 7 to our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates, credit ratings and foreign currency exchange rates.
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal, while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. Because of our ability to generally redeem these investments at par at short notice and without penalty, changes in interest rates would have an immaterial effect on the fair value of these investments. If a 10% change in interest rates were to have occurred on June 30, 2019 , any decline in the fair value of our investments would not be material in the context of our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, we are exposed to certain market risks associated with credit ratings of corporations whose corporate bonds we may purchase from time-to-time. If these companies were to experience a significant detrimental change in their credit ratings, the fair market value of such corporate bonds may significantly decrease. If these companies were to default on these corporate bonds, we may lose part or all of our principal. We believe that we effectively manage this market risk by diversifying our investments, and investing in highly-rated securities.
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations relating to payments we make to vendors, suppliers and license partners in Euros (and other currencies to a lesser extent). We mitigate such risk by maintaining a limited portion of our cash in Euros.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019 . The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These include controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019 , our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of that date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the second fiscal quarter of 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are met. Because of inherent limitations in any control system, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all

38



control issues within a company have been detected. We continuously seek to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our business operations and accompanying internal controls.
 
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved from time-to-time with various legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims and legal proceedings are of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to a pharmaceutical business, and may include product liability, intellectual property, employment matters, and other general claims. We may also be subject to derivative lawsuits from time to time.

We make provisions for liabilities when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Such provisions are assessed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of any settlement negotiations, judicial and administrative rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. Although the ultimate resolution of these various matters cannot be determined at this time, we do not believe that such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

Certain of the legal proceedings in which we are involved are discussed in Note 9(g) , “Financial Commitments & Contingencies and Key License Agreements,” to our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and are hereby incorporated by reference.
ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS
As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes to the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 , as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019 , except as included below:

We currently generate no revenue from commercial sales and the proceeds from our recent asset sale may not be sufficient to sustain our business operations.

We recently completed the sale of our seven FDA-approved hematology/oncology products in the Commercial Product Portfolio Transaction. These product sales and royalties represented all of our revenue from commercial operations. We will not generate any further revenue until our pipeline products, including the late-stage development products poziotinib and ROLONTIS, are approved for commercial sale by the FDA and/or other regulatory agencies. There is no guarantee as to when, if ever, our pipeline products will be approved for commercial sale. Accordingly, while we have significant capital resources from this recent sale, we may need to raise additional capital to fund our business operations. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, it could result in further dilution to our stockholders and adversely impact our stock price.
