Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
A discussion of changes in our results of operations during the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 has been omitted from this Annual Report on Form 10-K but may be found in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022, which discussion is incorporated herein by reference and which is available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Overview
We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapeutic products and devices to address serious unmet medical needs for those living with endocrine and orphan lung diseases. Our signature technologies—Technosphere dry-powder formulations and Dreamboat inhalation devices—offer rapid and convenient delivery of medicines to the deep lung where they can exert an effect locally or enter the systemic circulation. In our endocrine business unit, we currently commercialize two products: Afrezza (insulin human) Inhalation Powder, an ultra rapid-acting inhaled insulin indicated to improve glycemic control in adults with diabetes, and the V-Go wearable insulin delivery device, which provides continuous subcutaneous infusion of insulin in adults that require insulin. The first product to come out of our orphan lung disease pipeline, Tyvaso DPI (treprostinil) inhalation powder, received FDA approval in May 2022 for the treatment of PAH and PH-ILD. Our development and marketing partner, United Therapeutics, began commercializing Tyvaso DPI in June 2022 and is obligated to pay us a royalty on net sales of the product. We also receive a margin on supplies of Tyvaso DPI that we manufacture for UT.
Our business is subject to significant risks, including but not limited to our ability to manufacture sufficient quantities of our products and Tyvaso DPI. Other significant risks also include the risk that our products may only achieve a limited degree of commercial success and the risks inherent in drug development, clinical trials and the regulatory approval process for our product candidates, which in some cases depends upon the efforts of our partners.
As of December 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $3.2 billion and a stockholders’ deficit of $250.5 million. We had net loss of $87.4 million, $80.9 million and $57.2 million in the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. To date, we have funded our operations primarily through the sale of our equity and convertible debt securities, from the receipt of upfront and milestone payments from collaborations, from borrowings, from sales of Afrezza and V-Go, from royalties and manufacturing revenue from UT as well as from proceeds of the sale-leaseback of our manufacturing facility in Danbury, CT.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements is in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical to the consolidated financial statements if (i) the estimate is complex in nature or requires a high degree of judgment and (ii) different estimates and assumptions were used, the results could have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and the application of our policies. We base our estimates on historical experience, current conditions and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to revenue recognition and gross-to-net adjustments, inventory costing and recoverability, recognized loss on purchase commitments, impairment of long-lived assets, milestone rights liability, clinical trial expenses, stock-based compensation and accounting for income taxes. These critical accounting policies are also considered significant accounting policies and are more fully described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Revenue Recognition – Net Revenue – Commercial Product Sales — We sell products to a limited number of wholesale distributors and specialty and retail pharmacies, and durable medical suppliers (“DME”) in the U.S. (collectively, “Customers”). Wholesale distributors subsequently resell our products to retail pharmacies and certain medical centers or hospitals. Specialty pharmacies sell directly to patients. In addition to distribution agreements with Customers, we enter into arrangements with payers that provide for government mandated and/or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks, and discounts with respect to the purchase of our products.
43
We recognize revenue on product sales when the Customer obtains control of our product, which occurs at delivery for wholesale distributors and generally at delivery for specialty pharmacies. We recognize revenue on product sales to a retail pharmacy as the product is dispensed to patients. Product revenues are recorded net of applicable reserves including discounts, allowances, rebates, returns and other incentives. See Reserves for Variable Consideration below.
Reserves for Variable Consideration — Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, product returns, provider chargebacks and discounts, government rebates, payer rebates, and other incentives, such as voluntary patient assistance, and other allowances that are offered within contracts between us and our Customers, payers, and other indirect customers relating to the sale of our products. These reserves are based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and result in a reduction of accounts receivable or establishment of a current liability. Significant judgments are required in making these estimates.
Where appropriate, these estimates take into consideration a range of possible outcomes, which are probability-weighted in accordance with the expected value method in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) for relevant factors such as current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reduce recognized revenue to our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts.
The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained, and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur in a future period. Our analysis also contemplates application of the constraint in accordance with the guidance, under which we determined a material reversal of revenue would not occur in a future period for the estimates of gross-to-net adjustments as of December 31, 2022 and, therefore, the transaction price was not reduced further during the year ended December 31, 2022. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from our estimates, we will adjust these estimates, which would affect net revenue — commercial product sales and earnings in the period such variances become known.
Significant judgment is required in estimating gross-to-net adjustments, historical experience, payer channel mix unbilled claims, claim submission time lags and inventory levels in the distribution channel.
Our reserves for variable consideration are reflected in our gross-to-net adjustments which were 42% of gross revenue, or $40.8 million, for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to 39% of gross revenue, or $24.9 million, for the year ended December 31, 2021. If there is a 10% difference between the estimates for accruals and the actual liability in the reserves for variable consideration, the impact to our revenue for commercial product sales would be $2.0 million or a 4.1% change in the gross-to-net adjustment percentage for the year ended December 31, 2022.
These reserves are further detailed under Reserves for Variable Consideration in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Revenue Recognition – Collaborations and Services — We enter into licensing, research or other agreements under which we license certain rights to our product candidates to third parties, conduct research or provide other services to third parties. The terms of these arrangements may include but are not limited to payment to us of one or more of the following: up-front license fees; development, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments; payments for commercial manufacturing and clinical supply services we provide; and royalties on net sales of licensed products and sublicenses of the rights. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we must develop assumptions that require judgment such as determining the performance obligation in the contract and determining the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. With respect to our significant collaboration and service agreement with UT that includes a long-term commercial supply agreement (as amended, the “CSA”), we have identified three distinct performance obligations: (1) the license, supply of product to be used in clinical development, and continued development and approval support for Tyvaso DPI (“R&D Services and License”); (2) development activities for the next generation of the product (“Next-Gen R&D Services”); and (3) a material right associated with current and future commercial manufacturing and supply of product (“Manufacturing Services”). Pre-production activities under the CSA, such as facility expansion services and other administrative services, were considered bundled services under the Manufacturing Services performance obligation as required by ASC 606. Following the FDA’s approval of Tyvaso DPI, UT began issuing purchase orders for the supply of product, which represent distinct contracts and performance obligations under ASC 606. Revenue is recognized for the supply of product at a point in time, once control is transferred to UT. See Note 11 – Collaboration, Licensing and Other Arrangements of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
If an arrangement has multiple performance obligations, the allocation of the transaction price is determined from observable market inputs, and we use key assumptions to determine the stand-alone selling price, which may include development timelines, reimbursement rates for personnel costs, discount rates, and probabilities of technical and regulatory success. Revenue is recognized based on the measurement of progress as the performance obligation is satisfied and consideration received that does not meet the requirements to satisfy the revenue recognition criteria is recorded as deferred revenue. Current deferred revenue consists of amounts that are expected to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months. Amounts that we expect will not be recognized within the next 12 months are classified as long-term deferred revenue.
44
If there is a 10% difference in the estimates used to determine the transaction price for the CSA entered into in December 2022 with UT, the related allocation of the transaction price between performance obligations, the difference between the estimates for accruals and the actual liability for deferred revenue and revenue recognized for collaborations and services would be $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Stock-Based Compensation — Share-based payments to employees, including grants of restricted stock units, performance-based awards, restricted stock units with market conditions (“Market RSUs”), nonqualified stock options (“options”) and the compensatory elements of employee stock purchase plans, are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based upon the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Restricted stock units are valued based on the market price on the grant date. We evaluate stock awards with performance conditions as to the probability that the performance conditions will be met and estimates the date at which the performance conditions will be met in order to properly recognize stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period. The grant date fair value and the effect of the market conditions for the Market RSUs was estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the grant date fair value of employee options and the compensatory elements of employee stock purchase plans.
The grant date fair value for the Market RSUs was $6.10 per unit for the Market RSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $9.30 and $3.77 per unit for the Market RSUs granted during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. If there is a 10% difference in the grant date fair value of the Market RSUs, the impact to our stock-based compensation expense would be $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Results of Operations
Trends and Uncertainties
We continue to maintain an elevated level of safety stock of certain raw materials due to concerns that supply chain interruptions may interfere with the manufacture of Afrezza, V-Go and Tyvaso DPI.
Manufacturing risks may adversely affect our ability to manufacture our products and could reduce our gross margin.
Our future success is dependent on our, and our current and future collaboration partners’, ability to effectively commercialize our approved products. Our future success is also dependent on our pipeline of new products. There is a high rate of failure inherent in the research and development process for new drugs. As a result, there is a high risk that the funds we invest in research programs will not generate sufficient financial returns. Products may appear promising in development but fail to reach market within the expected or optimal timeframe, or at all.
Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021
Revenues
The following table provides a comparison of the revenue categories for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):
Year Ended December 31,
Net revenue — commercial product sales:
Gross-to-net revenue adjustment percentage (42 %) (39 %)
_________________________
* Not meaningful
Afrezza — Gross revenue from sales of Afrezza increased by $7.1 million, or 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year. The increase reflects a combination of higher price (including a more favorable gross-to-net adjustment), higher product demand and a favorable cartridge mix. The gross-to-net adjustment was 39% of gross revenue, or $27.8 million, for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to 39% of gross revenue or $24.9 million, for the prior year. The gross-to-net percentage remained consistent over the prior year and was primarily impacted by an increase in anticipated product returns, offset by a decrease in co-pay assistance and wholesaler distribution fees (as a percentage of gross sales) due to an increased mix of specialty and retail pharmacy sales. As a result, net revenue from sales of Afrezza increased by $4.1 million, or 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year.
45
V-Go — The acquisition of V-Go on May 31, 2022 resulted in an increase in gross revenue from commercial product sales of $25.9 million and net revenue of $12.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The gross-to-net adjustment of 50.2% of gross revenue was mainly attributable to commercial and government rebates and product distribution fees.
Collaborations and Services —Net revenue from collaborations and services decreased by $8.4 million, or 23%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year. The decrease in collaborations and services revenue was primarily attributable to the completion of the R&D Services performance obligation associated with our collaboration with UT during 2021. In August 2021, we entered into a commercial supply agreement with UT (the “CSA”). Revenue associated with the CSA was deferred until we began manufacturing and subsequently selling Tyvaso DPI in the second quarter of 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized $24.8 million of revenue under the CSA. We also recognized royalty revenue from our collaboration with UT of $15.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.
See Note 11 – Collaboration, Licensing and Other Arrangements in the consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Commercial product gross profit
The following table provides a comparison of the commercial product gross profit categories for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):
Year Ended December 31,
Commercial product gross profit:
Gross margin 72 % 57 %
Afrezza — Commercial product gross profit for Afrezza increased by $12.3 million, or 55%, for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the prior year. Gross margin for the year ended December 31 2022 increased to 80% compared to 57% for the prior year. The increase in gross profit and gross margin was attributable to an increase in Afrezza sales as well as a decrease in cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $8.2 million, or 48%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year. The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily attributable to a $4.1 million decrease in excess capacity costs as Tyvaso DPI began commercial production a $1.6 million decrease in inventory write-offs in the current year and a $2.0 million fee incurred for the amendment of the Insulin Supply Agreement with Amphastar in the prior year.
V-Go — The acquisition of V-Go on May 31, 2022 resulted in an increase in commercial product gross profit of $5.6 million with a gross margin of 43% for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Expenses
The following table provides a comparison of the expense categories for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):
Year Ended December 31,
Expenses:
Gain on foreign currency translation (4,811 ) (6,567 ) $ (1,756 ) (27 %)
Loss on purchase commitments — 339 $ (339 ) (100 %)
Cost of revenue — collaborations and services increased by $19.5 million, or 88%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year. The increase was attributable to an increase in manufacturing activities for Tyvaso DPI product.
46
Research and development expenses increased by $7.4 million, or 60%, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to development activities for our product pipeline, increased headcount for pipeline development activities and the Afrezza pediatrics clinical study (INHALE-1).
Selling expenses increased by $8.2 million, or 18%, for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to a pilot promotional effort aimed at primary care physicians that began in the fourth quarter of 2021 and ended in the third quarter of 2022, elimination of a co-promotion for third party product (which permitted some expenses associated with the sales force to be recognized as cost of revenue — collaborations and services in the same period of 2021), V-Go promotional efforts after the acquisition in the second quarter of 2022, partially offset by the net favorable impact of personnel-related costs due to Afrezza sales force restructuring.
General and administrative expenses increased by $5.8 million, or 18%, for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the prior year. This increase was primarily attributable to higher stock-based compensation, increased headcount, and higher professional and consulting fees.
Gain on foreign currency translation was $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $6.6 million for the prior year. Under the Insulin Supply Agreement with Amphastar, payment obligations are denominated in Euros. We are required to record the foreign currency translation impact of the U.S. dollar to Euro exchange rate associated with the recognized loss on purchase commitments. The decrease in year-over-year gain was due to the translation of Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rates.
Other Income (Expense)
The following table provides a comparison of the other income (expense) categories for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):
Year Ended December 31,
Interest expense on financing liability (9,758 ) (1,373 ) $ 8,385 *
Loss on available-for-sale securities (932 ) — $ (932 ) *
_________________________
* Not meaningful
Interest income, consisting of interest on investments net of amortization, increased by $2.4 million compared to the prior year primarily due to higher yields on our marketable securities and money market funds.
Interest expense on financing liability was $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and represented interest incurred on the sale lease-back transaction for our manufacturing facility in Danbury, CT which was entered into in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Interest expense on notes for the year ended December 31, 2022 was comparable to the prior year. See Note 10 — Borrowings.
Loss on available-for-sale securities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $0.9 million as a result of the change in the fair value of the investment that related to credit risk.
Loss on extinguishment of debt of $17.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 consisted of a $22.1 million loss on extinguishment of debt for the amendment to the Mann Group convertible note, which did not result in a change in our financial position, partially offset by a $4.9 million gain on extinguishment of debt as a result of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) forgiveness of the Paycheck Protection Program loan (the “PPP loan”).
Other expense or income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 consisted primarily of the loss associated with a foreign currency hedging transaction which was entered into to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency exchange risks associated with our insulin purchase obligation under the Insulin Supply Agreement with Amphastar.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash, cash equivalents, and investments. Our primary uses of cash include the development of our product pipeline, the manufacturing and marketing of Afrezza and V-Go, manufacturing Tyvaso DPI, the funding of general and administrative expenses, and interest expense on our financing liability and debt.
47
To date, we have funded our operations primarily through the sale of equity and convertible debt securities, from the receipt of upfront and milestone payments from collaborations, from borrowings, from sales of Afrezza and V-Go, from royalties and manufacturing revenue from UT as well as from proceeds from the sale-leaseback transaction.
We believe we will be able to meet our liquidity needs over the next twelve months, as well as longer-term needs, based on the balance of cash, cash equivalents and investments on hand, projected sales of Afrezza and V-Go, and projected royalties and manufacturing revenue from the production and sale of Tyvaso DPI. The following table presents our material cash requirements as of December 31, 2022 associated with contractual commitments for future periods (in thousands):
Mann Group convertible note(3) — 9,233 — — 9,233
_________________________
To date, we have been able to timely make our required interest payments, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so in the future. If we fail to repurchase the Mann Group promissory notes, we will be in default under the applicable instrument for such indebtedness, and may also suffer an event of default under the terms of other borrowing arrangements that we may enter into from time to time. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, up to and including the noteholders initiating bankruptcy proceedings or causing us to cease operations altogether.
In July 2013, in connection with our entry into a loan agreement (which has since been repaid) with Deerfield Private Design Fund II, L.P. and Deerfield Private Design International II, L.P. we issued certain milestone rights (the “Milestone Rights”) to Deerfield Private Design Fund II, L.P. and Horizon Santé FLML SÀRL (the “Original Milestone Purchasers”). The Milestone Rights provided the Original Milestone Purchasers certain rights to receive payments of up to $90.0 million upon the occurrence of specified strategic and sales milestones, $60.0 million of which remains payable to Barings upon achievement of such milestones. See Note 16– Commitments and Contingencies and Note 10 – Borrowings for further information related to the Milestone Rights.
In addition to the above, we also expect to have material cash requirements relating to paying our employees and consultants, professional services fees, marketing expenses, manufacturing expenditures, and clinical trial expenses. In addition, we make substantial and often long-term investments in our supply chain in order to ensure we have enough inventory and drug product to meet current and future revenue forecasts, as well as clinical trial needs.
In February 2018, we entered into a controlled equity offering sales agreement (the “CF Sales Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor Fitzgerald”), as sales agent, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, through Cantor Fitzgerald, shares of our common stock. Under the Sales Agreement, Cantor Fitzgerald may sell shares by any method deemed to be an “at-the-market offering” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In February 2022, we filed a sales agreement prospectus under a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-262981) covering the sale of up to $50.0 million of our common stock through Cantor Fitzgerald under the CF Sales Agreement.
48
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we used $80.7 million of cash for our operating activities, which primarily consisted of $75.1 million of selling, general and administrative expenses, $58.5 million of cost of goods sold, $23.8 million of costs for research and development, $8.9 million of cash paid for interest on notes and $9.6 million of cash paid for interest on the financing liability, partially offset by $108.3 million of revenue.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we used $61.7 million of cash for our operating activities, which primarily consisted of $65.8 million of selling, general and administrative expenses, $35.5 million of cost of goods sold and cost of revenue, $11.7 million of costs for research and development and $6.5 million of cash paid for interest, partially offset by $47.6 million of revenue.
Cash provided from investing activities of $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to the maturity of $107.3 million of debt securities, partially offset by the up-front consideration of $15.3 million for certain assets and assumed liabilities related to V-Go, $5.0 million purchase of available-for-sale securities, the purchase of $74.5 million of debt securities and $7.6 million purchase of property and equipment.
Cash used in investing activities of $151.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily due to the purchase of debt securities of $196.1 million, partially offset by proceeds received from sales of debt securities of $59.1 million.
Cash provided by financing activities of $21.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to net proceeds from at-the-market offering of $19.8 million, partially offset by the milestone payment of $1.1 million.
Cash provided by financing activities of $270.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily due to net proceeds from the offering of Senior convertible notes of $222.7 million and net proceeds from the sale-leaseback transaction of $99.1 million, partially offset by the repayment of $35.1 million of Mann Group non-convertible notes and related unpaid accrued interest and the repayment of $10.0 million of principal and $1.0 million prepayment penalty for the MidCap credit facility.
Future Liquidity Needs
We are not currently profitable and have rarely generated positive net cash flow from operations. In addition, we expect to continue to incur expenditures for the foreseeable future in support of our manufacturing operations, sales and marketing costs for our products and development costs for other product candidates in our pipeline. We believe we will be able to meet our liquidity needs based on our cash, cash equivalents and investments on hand, sales of Afrezza and V-Go, royalties and manufacturing revenue from the production and sale of Tyvaso DPI. As of December 31, 2022, we had capital resources of $69.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, $101.0 million in short-term investments and $2.0 million in long-term investments, and total principal amount of outstanding borrowings of $278.8 million.
We believe our resources will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 – Financial Statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data for information regarding accounting standards we adopted in 2022 and other new accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB but are not effective until after December 31, 2022.
Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Interest on borrowings under the MidCap credit facility accrues interest at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) 8.25% and (ii) the one-month SOFR (subject to a one-month SOFR floor of 1.00%) plus 6.25%. Accordingly, our interest expense under the MidCap credit facility is subject to changes in the one-month SOFR rate.
All other debt has fixed interest rates, so the interest expense associated with such debt is not exposed to changes in market interest rates. Specifically, the interest rate on amounts borrowed under the Mann Group promissory notes is fixed at 2.50% and the interest rate under the Senior convertible notes is fixed at 2.50%. See Note 10 – Borrowings for information about the principal amount of outstanding debt.
If a hypothetical 10% change in the one-month SOFR interest rates on December 31, 2022 were to have occurred, this change would not have had a material effect on our annual interest payment obligation.
49
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
In July 2022 and October 2022, we entered into two separate 90-day foreign currency hedging transactions to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency exchange risks associated with our insulin purchase obligation under the Insulin Supply Agreement. The hedging transaction hedges against short-term currency fluctuations for the remaining current year purchase obligation under the Insulin Supply Agreement for a total of €4.0 million. We realized a $0.1 million loss during the year ended December 31, 2022. This amount is recorded in other income and expense.
We incur and will continue to incur significant expenditures for insulin supply obligations under our Insulin Supply Agreement with Amphastar. Such obligations are denominated in Euros. At the end of each reporting period, the recognized gain or loss on purchase commitment is converted to U.S. dollars at the then-applicable foreign exchange rate. As a result, our business is affected by fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the Euro. For the year ended December 31, 2022, we realized a $4.8 million currency gain, which was included in (gain) loss on foreign currency translation in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely affect our expenses, results of operations, financial position and cash flows. If a change in the U.S. dollar to Euro exchange rate equal to 10% of the U.S. dollar to Euro exchange rate on December 31, 2022 were to have occurred, this change would have resulted in a foreign currency impact to our pre-tax loss of approximately $7.2 million.
Item 8.Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The information required by this Item is included in Items 15(a) (1) and (2) of Part IV of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 9.Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC 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 Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we and our management recognize that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, our management was required to apply its reasonable judgment.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022.
Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2022.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may not operate effectively because of changes in conditions such as replacing consulting resources with permanent personnel or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013 Framework).
Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their attestation report herein, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of MannKind Corporation
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of MannKind Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, of the Company and our report dated February 23, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of MannKind Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MannKind Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 23, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Net Revenue – Commercial Product Sales – Government Rebates – Refer to Note 2 and 9 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
As more fully disclosed in Note 2 and 9 to the financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue for commercial product sales at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, product returns, provider chargebacks and discounts, government rebates, payer rebates, and other incentives, such as voluntary patient assistance, and other allowances that are offered within contracts between the Company and its Customers, payers, and other indirect customers relating to the Company’s sale of its products. Government rebates are provided to Medicare and state Medicaid programs. Government rebates involve the use of significant assumptions and judgments to estimate for rebate claims related to prior period sales for which an invoice has not yet been received, and related estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that will be made for product sales that have been recognized as revenue, but which remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. These significant assumptions and judgments include consideration of historical claims experience, contractual rebate provision, payer channel mix, current contract prices, unbilled claims, claim submission time lags and inventory in the distribution channel.
Given the complexity involved in determining the significant assumptions and judgments used in estimating the government rebates, auditing such estimates required a high degree of auditor judgment and increased extent of audit effort.

MANNKIND CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Description of Business
Business — MannKind Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapeutic products and devices to address serious unmet medical needs for those living with endocrine and orphan lung diseases. The Company is currently commercializing Afrezza (insulin human) Inhalation Powder, an ultra rapid-acting inhaled insulin indicated to improve glycemic control in adults with diabetes, and the V-Go wearable insulin delivery device, which provides continuous subcutaneous infusion of insulin in adults that require insulin. The Company also collaborates with third parties to formulate their drugs on the Company’s Technosphere drug delivery platform. Tyvaso DPI (treprostinil) inhalation powder received FDA approval in May 2022, for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension and for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease. UT began commercializing Tyvaso DPI in June 2022 and is obligated to pay the Company a royalty on net sales of the product. The Company also receives a margin on supplies of Tyvaso DPI that it manufactures for UT.
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications — Certain prior year reported amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Changes were made to the consolidated statements of operations to present selling expense as a separate line item and to disclose a single caption for interest expense on all outstanding notes. Changes were made to the consolidated balance sheets to reclassify interest receivable from investments from accounts receivable, net to other assets.
Segment Information — Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. To date, the Company has viewed its operations and manages its business as one segment operating in the United States of America.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Financial Statement Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates or assumptions. Management considers many factors in selecting appropriate financial accounting policies, and in developing the estimates and assumptions that are used in the preparation of the financial statements. Management must apply significant judgment in this process. These effects could have a material impact on the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The more significant estimates include revenue recognition, including gross-to-net adjustments, stand-alone selling price considerations for recognition of collaboration revenue assessing long-lived assets for impairment, clinical trial expenses, inventory costing and recoverability, recognized loss on purchase commitment, stock-based compensation and the determination of the provision for income taxes and corresponding deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets.
Revenue Recognition — The Company recognizes revenue when its customers obtain control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that are within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under ASC 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer.
At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract, determines those that are performance obligations, and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company has two types of contracts with customers: (i) contracts for commercial product sales with wholesale distributors, specialty and retail pharmacies and (ii) collaboration arrangements.
Revenue Recognition – Net Revenue – Commercial Product Sales – The Company sells its products to a limited number of wholesale distributors, specialty and retail pharmacies, and durable medical equipment suppliers (“DME”) in the U.S. (collectively, its “Customers”). Wholesale distributors subsequently resell the Company’s products to retail pharmacies and certain medical centers or hospitals. Specialty and retail pharmacies sell directly to patients. In addition to distribution agreements with Customers, the Company enters into arrangements with payers that provide for government mandated and/or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks, and discounts with respect to the purchase of the Company’s products.
72
The Company recognizes revenue on product sales when the Customer obtains control of the Company's product, which occurs at delivery for wholesale distributors and generally at delivery for specialty pharmacies. The Company recognizes revenue on product sales to a retail pharmacy as the product is dispensed to patients. Product revenues are recorded net of applicable reserves,including discounts, allowances, rebates, returns and other incentives. See Reserves for Variable Consideration below.
Free Goods Program – From time to time, the Company offers programs to potential new patients that allow them to obtain free goods (prescription fills) from a pharmacy. The Company excludes such amounts related to these programs from both gross and net revenue. The cost of product associated with the free goods program is recognized as cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations.
Reserves for Variable Consideration — Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, product returns, provider chargebacks and discounts, government rebates, payer rebates, and other incentives, such as voluntary patient assistance, and other allowances that are offered within contracts between the Company and its Customers, payers, and other indirect customers relating to the Company’s sale of its products. These reserves, as further detailed below, are based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and result in a reduction of accounts receivable or establishment of a current liability. Significant judgments are required in making these estimates.
Where appropriate, these estimates take into consideration a range of possible outcomes, which are probability-weighted in accordance with the expected value method in ASC 606 for relevant factors such as current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reduce recognized revenue to the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts.
The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained, and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur in a future period. The Company’s analysis also contemplates application of the constraint in accordance with the guidance, under which it determined a material reversal of revenue would not occur in a future period for the estimates of gross-to-net adjustments as of December 31, 2022 and, therefore, the transaction price was not reduced further during the year ended December 31, 2022. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates, which would affect net revenue — commercial product sales and earnings in the period such variances become known.
Significant judgment is required in estimating gross-to-net adjustments, historical experience, payer channel mix, unbilled claims, claim submission time lags and inventory levels in the distribution channel.
Trade Discounts and Allowances — The Company generally provides Customers with discounts which include incentives, such as prompt pay discounts, that are explicitly stated in the Company’s contracts and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized. In addition, the Company compensates (through trade discounts and allowances) its Customers for sales order management, data, and distribution services. However, the Company has determined such services received to date are not distinct from the Company’s sale of products to the Customer and, therefore, these payments have been recorded as a reduction of revenue and as a reduction to accounts receivable, net.
Product Returns — Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers Customers a right of return for unopened product that has been purchased from the Company for a period beginning six months prior to and ending 12 months after its expiration date, which lapses upon shipment to a patient. The Company estimates the amount of its product sales that may be returned by its Customers and records this estimate as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized, as well as reductions to accounts receivable, net. The Company currently estimates product returns using available industry data and its own sales information, including its visibility into the inventory remaining in the distribution channel. The Company’s current return reserve percentage is estimated to be in the single-digits. Adjustments to the returns reserve have been made in the past and may be necessary in the future based on revised estimates to the Company’s assumptions.
Provider Chargebacks and Discounts — Chargebacks for fees and discounts to providers represent the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products to qualified healthcare providers at prices lower than the list prices charged to Customers who directly purchase products from the Company. Customers charge the Company for the difference between what they pay for products and the ultimate selling price to the qualified healthcare providers. These reserves are established in the same period that the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability that is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Chargeback amounts are generally determined at the time of resale to the qualified healthcare provider by Customers, and the Company generally issues credits for such amounts within a few weeks of the Customer’s notification to the Company of the resale. Reserves for chargebacks consist of credits that the Company expects to issue for units that remain in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expects will be sold to qualified healthcare providers, and chargebacks that Customers have claimed, but for which the Company has not yet issued a credit.
Government Rebates — The Company is subject to discount obligations under Medicare and state Medicaid programs. These reserves are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability that is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Estimates around Medicaid have historically required significant
73
judgment due to timing lags in receiving invoices for claims from states.For Afrezza, the Company also estimates the number of patients in the prescription drug coverage gap for whom the Company will owe an additional liability under the Medicare Part D program. The Company’s liability for these rebates consists of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that have not been paid or for which an invoice has not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that will be made for products that have been recognized as revenue, but which remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. The Company’s estimates include consideration of historical claims experience, payer channel mix, current contract prices, unbilled claims, claim submission time lags and inventory in the distribution channel.
Payer Rebates — The Company contracts with certain private payer organizations, primarily insurance companies and pharmacy benefit managers, for the payment of rebates with respect to utilization of its products. The Company estimates these rebates, including estimates for product that has been recognized as revenue, but which remains in the distribution channel, and records such estimates in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The Company’s estimates include consideration of historical claims experience, payer channel mix, current contract prices, unbilled claims, claim submission time lags and inventory in the distribution channel.
Other Incentives — Other incentives which the Company offers include voluntary patient support programs, such as the Company's co-pay assistance program, which are intended to provide financial assistance to qualified commercially-insured patients with co-payments required by payers. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance is based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expects to receive associated with the products that have been recognized as revenue, but remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period. The adjustments are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability that is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
Revenue Recognition — Revenue — Collaborations and Services — The Company enters into licensing, research or other agreements under which the Company licenses certain rights to its product candidates to third parties, conducts research or provides other services to third parties. The terms of these arrangements may include, but are not limited to payment to the Company of one or more of the following: up-front license fees; development, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments; payments for commercial manufacturing and clinical supply services the Company provides; and royalties on net sales of licensed products and sublicenses of the rights. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, the Company must develop assumptions that require judgment such as determining the performance obligation in the contract and determining the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. With respect to our significant collaboration and service agreement with UT that includes a long-term commercial supply agreement (“as amended, the CSA”), we have identified three distinct performance obligations: (1) the license, supply of product to be used in clinical development, and continued development and approval support for Tyvaso DPI (“R&D Services and License’), (2) development activities for the next generation of the product (“Next-Gen R&D Services”), and (3) a material right associated with current and future manufacturing and supply of product (“Manufacturing Services”). Pre-production activities under the CSA, such as facility expansion services and other administrative services, were considered bundled services under the Manufacturing Services performance obligation as required by ASC 606. Following the FDA’s approval of Tyvaso DPI, UT began issuing purchase orders for the supply of product, which represents distinct contracts and performance obligations under ASC 606. Revenue is recognized for the supply of product at a point in time, once control is transferred to UT. See Note 11 – Collaboration, Licensing and Other Arrangements.
If an arrangement has multiple performance obligations, the allocation of the transaction price is determined from observable market inputs, and the Company uses key assumptions to determine the stand-alone selling price, which may include development timelines, reimbursement rates for personnel costs, discount rates, and probabilities of technical and regulatory success. Revenue is recognized based on the measurement of progress as the performance obligation is satisfied and consideration received that does not meet the requirements to satisfy the revenue recognition criteria is recorded as deferred revenue. Current deferred revenue consists of amounts that are expected to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months. Amounts that the Company expects will not be recognized within the next 12 months are classified as long-term deferred revenue. For further information, see Note 11 – Collaboration, Licensing and Other Arrangements.
The Company recognizes upfront license payments as revenue upon delivery of the license only if the license is determined to be a separate unit of accounting from the other undelivered performance obligations. The undelivered performance obligations typically include manufacturing or development services or research and/or steering committee services. If the license is not considered as a distinct performance obligation, then the license and other undelivered performance obligations would be evaluated to determine if such should be accounted for as a single unit of accounting. If concluded to be a single performance obligation, the transaction price for the single performance obligation is recognized as revenue over the estimated period of when the performance obligation is satisfied. If the license is considered to be a distinct performance obligation, then the estimated revenue is included in the transaction price for the contract, which is then allocated to each performance obligation based on the respective standalone selling prices.
Whenever the Company determines that an arrangement should be accounted for over time, the Company determines the period over which the performance obligations will be performed, and revenue will be recognized over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations. Significant management judgment is required in determining the level of effort required under an arrangement and the period over which the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations under an arrangement.
The Company’s collaboration agreements typically entitle the Company to additional payments upon the achievement of development, regulatory and sales milestones. If the achievement of a milestone is considered probable at the inception of the collaboration, the related milestone payment is included with other collaboration consideration, such as upfront fees and research funding, in the Company’s revenue
74
calculation. If these milestones are not considered probable at the inception of the collaboration, the milestones will typically be recognized in one of two ways depending on the timing of when the milestone is achieved. If the milestone is improbable at inception and subsequently deemed probable of achievement, such will be added to the transaction price, resulting in a cumulative adjustment to revenue. If the milestone is achieved after the performance period has been completed and all performance obligations have been delivered, the Company will recognize the milestone payment as revenue in its entirety in the period the milestone was achieved.
The Company’s collaborative agreements, for accounting purposes, represent contracts with customers and therefore are not subject to accounting literature on collaborative agreements. The Company grants licenses to its intellectual property, supplies raw materials, semi-finished goods or finished goods, provides research and development services and offers sales support for the co-promotion of products, all of which are outputs of the Company’s ongoing activities, in exchange for consideration. Accordingly, the Company concluded that its collaborative agreements must generally be accounted for pursuant to ASC 606.
For collaboration agreements that allow collaboration partners to select additional optioned products or services, the Company evaluates whether such options contain material rights (i.e., have exercise prices that are discounted compared to what the Company would charge for a similar product or service to a new collaboration partner). The exercise price of these options includes a combination of licensing fees, event-based milestone payments and royalties. When these amounts in aggregate are not offered at a discount that exceeds discounts available to other customers, the Company concludes the option does not contain a material right, and therefore is not included in the transaction price at contract inception. The Company assessed the CSA agreement with UT and determined that a material right existed for the manufacturing services performance obligation. The transaction price is allocated to the material right as well as the remaining performance obligations in accordance with ASC 606. The Company also evaluates grants of additional licensing rights upon option exercises to determine whether such should be accounted for as separate contracts.
Revenue Recognition — Royalties — The Company recognizes royalty revenue for a sales-based or usage-based royalty if it is promised in exchange for an intellectual property license. The royalty revenue is recognized as the latter of the subsequent sale of the product occurs or if the performance obligation to which the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied or partially satisfied. The Company’s collaborative agreement with UT entitles it to receive low double-digit royalties on net sales of Tyvaso DPI for the license of the Company’s IP that was considered to be interdependent with the development activities that supported the approval of Tyvaso DPI.
The Company’s net revenue and cost of revenue and goods sold as shown on the consolidated statement of operations is comprised of revenue generated from product sales, services and royalties as shown below (in thousands):

The Company follows detailed accounting guidance in measuring revenue and certain judgments affect the application of its revenue policy. For example, in connection with its existing collaboration agreements, the Company has recorded on its consolidated balance sheets short-term and long-term deferred revenue based on its best estimate of when such revenue will be recognized. Short-term deferred revenue consists of amounts that are expected to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months. Amounts that the Company expects will not be recognized within the next 12 months are classified as long-term deferred revenue. However, this estimate is based on the Company’s current project development plan and, if the development plan should change in the future, the Company may recognize a different amount of deferred revenue over the next 12-month period.
Milestone Payments — At the inception of each arrangement that includes development milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether the milestones are considered probable of being reached and estimates the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within the control of the Company or the customer, such as regulatory approvals, are not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. The transaction price is then allocated to each performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price basis, for which the Company recognizes revenue as, or when, the performance obligations under the contract are satisfied. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, the Company will re-evaluate the probability of achievement of such development milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjusts its estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis, which would affect license, collaboration, other revenue, and earnings in the period of adjustment.
Cost of Goods Sold — Cost of goods sold includes material, labor costs and manufacturing overhead. Cost of goods sold also includes a component of current period manufacturing costs in excess of costs capitalized into inventory (“excess capacity costs”). These costs, in addition to the impact of the revaluation of inventory for standard costing, and write-offs of inventory are recorded as expenses in the period in which they are incurred, rather than as a portion of inventory costs. Cost of goods sold excludes the cost of insulin purchased under the Company’s Insulin Supply Agreement (the “Insulin Supply Agreement”) with Amphastar Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Amphastar”). All insulin inventory on hand was written off and the full purchase commitment contract to purchase future insulin was accrued as a recognized loss on purchase commitments as of the end of 2016.
Cost of Revenues – Collaborations and Services — Cost of revenues – collaborations and services includes material, labor costs, manufacturing overhead, and excess capacity costs. These costs, in addition to the write-offs of inventory are recorded as expenses in the period in which they are incurred, rather than as a portion of inventory costs. Cost of revenues – collaborations and services also includes the cost of product development.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash — The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original or remaining maturities of 90 days or less at the time of purchase, that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, cash equivalents were comprised of money market, corporate bonds and commercial paper accounts with original maturities less than 90 days from the date of purchase.
The Company records restricted cash when cash and cash equivalents are restricted as to withdrawal or usage. The Company presents amounts of restricted cash that will be available for use within 12 months of the reporting date as restricted cash in current assets.
Held-to-Maturity Investments — The Company’s investments generally consist of commercial paper, corporate notes or bonds and U.S. Treasury securities. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company held short-term and long-term investments of debt securities, including commercial paper and bonds. The Company assesses whether it has any intention to sell the investment before maturity, whether any declines in fair value are the result of credit losses, as well as whether there were other-than-temporary impairments associated with the available for sale investment. The Company intends to hold its investments until maturity; therefore, these investments are stated at amortized cost. The investments with maturities less than 12 months are included in short-term investments and investments with maturities in excess of twelve months are included in long-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets. The amortization or accretion of the Company’s investments is recognized as interest income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Available-for-Sale Investment — In June 2021, the Company purchased a $3.0 million convertible promissory note (the “Thirona convertible note”) issued by Thirona Bio, Inc. (“Thirona”). In January 2022, the Company purchased an additional $5.0 million convertible promissory note issued by Thirona. Unless earlier converted into conversion shares pursuant to the note purchase agreement, the principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable by Thirona on demand by the Company at any time after the maturity date of December 31, 2023. Interest accrues at a rate of 6% per annum. The Thirona convertible notes are general unsecured obligations of Thirona. The Thirona convertible notes are classified as an available-for-sale security and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Available-for-sale investments are subsequently measured at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income until realized. The Company assesses whether it has any intention to sell the investment, determines fair value of its available-for-sale investments using level 3 inputs as well as assesses its allowance for credit losses associated with the available for sale investment. In June 2021, the Company and Thirona also entered into a collaboration agreement to develop a compound for the treatment of fibrotic lung diseases. See Note 11 – Collaboration, Licensing and Other Arrangements for additional information.
Concentration of Credit Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and investments. Cash and cash equivalents are held in high credit quality institutions. Cash equivalents consist of interest-bearing money market funds and U.S. Treasury securities with original or remaining maturities of 90 days or less at the time of purchase. Investments generally consist of commercial paper, corporate notes or bonds and U.S. Treasury securities. The cash equivalents and investments are regularly monitored by management.
76
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses — Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are not interest bearing. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for credit losses if there are estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company makes ongoing assumptions relating to the collectability of its accounts receivable in its calculation of the allowance for credit losses. The allowance for expected credit losses is based primarily on past collections experience relative to the length of time receivables are past due. However, when available evidence reasonably supports an assumption that future economic conditions will differ from current and historical payment collections, an adjustment is reflected in the allowance for expected credit losses. Accounts receivable are also presented net of an allowance for product returns and trade discounts and allowances because the Company’s customers have the right of setoff for these amounts against the related accounts receivable.
Pre-Launch Inventory — An improvement to the manufacturing process for the Company’s primary excipient fumaryl diketopiperazine (“FDKP”) was demonstrated to be viable and management expects to realize an economic benefit in the future as a result of such process improvement. Accordingly, the Company is required to assess whether to capitalize inventory costs related to such excipient prior to regulatory approval of the new supplier and the improved manufacturing process. In doing so, management must consider a number of factors in order to determine the amount of inventory to be capitalized, including the historical experience of achieving regulatory approvals for the Company’s manufacturing process, feedback from regulatory agencies on the changes being effected and the amount of inventory that is likely to be used in commercial production. The shelf life of the excipient will be determined as part of the regulatory approval process; in the interim, the Company must assess the available stability data to determine whether there is likely to be adequate shelf life to support anticipated future sales occurring beyond the expected approval date of the new raw material. If management is aware of any specific material risks or contingencies other than the normal regulatory review and approval process, or if the criteria for capitalizing inventory produced prior to regulatory approval are otherwise not met, the Company would not capitalize such inventory costs, choosing instead to recognize such costs as a research and development expense in the period incurred.
Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company determines the cost of inventory using the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with the Company’s products based on management’s judgment that future economic benefits are expected to be realized; otherwise, such costs are expensed as incurred as cost of goods sold. The Company uses a contract manufacturing organization outside of the U.S. for certain stages of V-Go inventory.
The Company periodically analyzes its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value and writes down such inventories, as appropriate. In addition, the Company’s products are subject to strict quality control and monitoring which the Company performs throughout the manufacturing process. If certain batches or units of product no longer meet quality specifications or may become obsolete or are forecasted to become obsolete due to expiration, the Company will record a charge to write down such unmarketable inventory to its estimated net realizable value.
The Company analyzes its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value. The Company performs an assessment of projected sales and evaluates the lower of cost or net realizable value and the potential excess inventory on hand at the end of each reporting period.
Property and equipment — Property and equipment is recorded at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recorded over the assets’ useful lives on a straight-line basis. See Note 7 – Property and Equipment.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — Long-lived assets include property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets and other intangible asset. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Assets are considered to be impaired if the carrying value is considered to be unrecoverable.
If the Company believes an asset to be impaired, the impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Fair value is determined using the market, income or cost approaches as appropriate for the asset. Any write-downs are treated as permanent reductions in the carrying amount of the asset and recognized as an operating loss.
In August 2019, the Company recorded a $1.5 million commitment asset and a $0.4 million other asset for deferred debt issuance costs related to the future funding commitments of the MidCap Credit Facility. A quarterly assessment was performed during the second quarter of 2020 to determine if the Company was on target to achieve certain required milestone conditions in order for the Company to access further borrowings under the MidCap Credit Facility. The Company determined that such milestone conditions related to Afrezza trailing net revenue were unlikely to be achieved. As a result, an asset impairment of $1.9 million was recognized during the second quarter of 2020 and is reflected in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. See Note 10 – Borrowings for further information on the MidCap Credit Facility.
The Company recorded $0.1 million of asset impairments for the year ended December 31, 2021. There were no asset impairments for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Acquisitions — The Company first determines whether a set of assets acquired constitute a business and should be accounted for as a business combination. If the assets acquired do not constitute a business, the Company accounts for the transaction as an asset acquisition. Business combinations are accounted for by means of the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired,
77
including in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects, and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The excess of the fair value of consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Contingent consideration obligations incurred in connection with a business combination (including the assumption of an acquiree’s liability arising from an acquisition it consummated prior to the Company’s acquisition) are recorded at their fair values on the acquisition date and remeasured at their fair values each subsequent reporting period until the related contingencies have been resolved. The resulting changes in fair values are recorded in earnings. In contrast, asset acquisitions are accounted for by using a cost accumulation and allocation model. Under this model, the cost of the acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. IPR&D projects with no alternative future use are recorded in R&D expense upon acquisition, and contingent consideration obligations incurred in connection with an asset acquisition are recorded when it is probable that they will occur and they can be reasonably estimated. See Note 3 – Acquisitions.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — The fair value of acquired intangible assets is determined using an income-based approach referred to as the excess earnings method utilizing Level 3 fair value inputs. Market participant valuations assume a global view considering all potential jurisdictions and indications based on discounted after-tax cash flow projections, risk adjusted for estimated probability of technical and regulatory success.
The Company tests for impairment annually on a reporting unit basis, at the beginning of the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit is less than its estimated fair value, an impairment charge will be recorded.
Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. Estimated useful lives are determined considering the period assets are expected to contribute to future cash flows. Finite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment when facts or circumstances suggest that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying value exceeds the projected undiscounted pretax cash flows of the intangible asset, an impairment loss equal to the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value (discounted after-tax cash flows) is recognized.
No impairments to goodwill or other intangible assets were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Recognized Loss on Purchase Commitments — The Company assesses whether losses on long-term purchase commitments should be accrued. Losses that are expected to arise from firm, non-cancellable, commitments for the future purchases are recognized unless recoverable. When making the assessment, the Company also considers whether it is able to renegotiate with its vendors. The recognized loss on purchase commitments is reduced as inventory items are received. If, subsequent to an accrual, a purchase commitment is successfully renegotiated, the gain is recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The liability balance of the recognized loss on insulin purchase commitments as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $72.3 million and $82.8 million, respectively. No new contracts were identified in 2022 that required a new loss on purchase commitment accrual.
Milestone Rights Liability — In July 2013, in conjunction with the execution of a (now repaid) loan agreement with Deerfield Private Design Fund II, L.P. and Deerfield Private Design International II, L.P. (collectively, “Deerfield”), the Company entered into Milestone Rights Purchase Agreement (the “Milestone Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company issued certain milestone rights to Deerfield Private Design Fund II, L.P. and Horizon Santé FLML SÀRL, (the “Original Milestone Purchasers”). The foregoing milestone rights provided the Original Milestone Purchasers certain rights to receive payments of up to $90.0 million upon the occurrence of specified strategic and sales milestones, $60.0 million of which remains payable upon achievement of such milestones (collectively, the “Milestone Rights’). In December 2021, the Milestone Rights were purchased by Barings Global Special Situations Credit Fund 4 (Delaware), L.P. and Barings Global Special Situations Credit 4 (LUX) S.ar.l. (together the “Milestone Purchasers”). As a result, the Milestone Purchasers have assumed the obligations of the Original Milestone Purchasers and is now entitled to all rights under the Milestone Rights Agreement. As of December 31, 2022, $60.0 million remained payable pursuant to the Milestone Rights Agreement upon achievement of Afrezza net sales milestones. The Milestone Rights liability is reported at fair value at the date of the agreement which is periodically offset against payments. See Note 12 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
The initial fair value estimate of the Milestone Rights was calculated using the income approach in which the cash flows associated with the specified contractual payments were adjusted for both the expected timing and the probability of achieving the milestones and discounted to present value using a selected market discount rate. The expected timing and probability of achieving the milestones was developed with consideration given to both internal data, such as progress made to date and assessment of criteria required for achievement, and external data, such as market research studies. The discount rate was selected based on an estimation of required rate of returns for similar investment opportunities using available market data. The Milestone Rights liability will be remeasured as the specified milestone events are achieved. Specifically, as each milestone event is achieved, the portion of the initially recorded Milestone Rights liability that pertains to the milestone event being achieved, will be remeasured to the amount of the specified related milestone payment. The resulting change in the balance of the Milestone Rights liability due to remeasurement will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as interest expense. Furthermore, the Milestone Rights liability will be reduced upon the settlement of each milestone payment. As a result, each milestone payment would be effectively allocated between a reduction of the recorded Milestone Rights liability and an expense representing a return on a portion of the Milestone Rights liability paid to the investor for the achievement of the related milestone event. See Note 10 – Borrowings.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments —The Company applies various valuation approaches in determining the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities within a hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the source of inputs as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
Income Taxes — The provisions for federal, foreign, state and local income taxes are calculated on pre-tax income based on current tax law and include the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those used previously in determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce net deferred income tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.
For uncertain tax positions, the Company determines whether it is “more likely than not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit can be recorded in the financial statements. For those tax positions where it is “not more likely than not” that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit is recognized. Penalties, if probable and reasonably estimable, are recognized as a component of income tax expense. The Company has reduced its deferred tax assets for uncertain tax positions but has not recorded liabilities for income tax expense, penalties, or interest.
Contingencies — The Company records a loss contingency for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These accruals represent management’s best estimate of probable loss. Disclosure also is provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether an exposure is reasonably estimable. Because of uncertainties related to these matters, accruals are based only on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation and may revise its estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation — Share-based payments to employees, including grants of RSUs, performance-based non-qualified stock options awards (“PNQs”), restricted stock units with market conditions (“Market RSUs”), options and the compensatory elements of employee stock purchase plans, are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based upon the fair value of the awards at the grant date. RSUs are valued based on the market price on the grant date. Market RSUs are valued using a Monte Carlo valuation model and RSUs with performance conditions are evaluated for the probability that the performance conditions will be met and estimates the date at which the performance conditions will be met in order to properly recognize stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the grant date fair value of employee options and the compensatory elements of employee stock purchase plans.
Clinical Trial Expenses — Clinical trial expenses, which are primarily reflected in research and development expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, result from obligations under contracts with vendors, consultants and clinical site agreements in addition to internal costs associated with conducting clinical trials.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock — Basic net income or loss per share excludes dilution for potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income or loss per share reflects the potential dilution under the treasury method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For periods where the Company has presented a net loss, potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as they would be anti-dilutive.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards — In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard to ease the financial reporting burdens caused by the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, commonly referred to as reference rate reform. The new standard provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to current GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting. In January 2021, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that expanded the scope of the original March 2020 standard to include derivative instruments on discounting transactions. In December 2022, the FASB deferred the sunset date to an alternative reference rate from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company adopted these standards in the third quarter of 2022 using the prospective method and determined there was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
79
Recently Issued Accounting Standards — In November 2021, the FASB issued a new accounting standard around the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The new standard clarifies that contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination from an acquiree should initially be recognized by applying revenue recognition principles and not at fair value. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. The impact of this standard will depend on the facts and circumstances of future transactions.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
3. Acquisitions
V-Go
In May 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) to purchase from Zealand Pharma A/S and Zealand Pharma US, Inc. (together “Zealand”) certain assets and assume certain liabilities associated with the V-Go wearable insulin delivery device. The transaction closed on May 31, 2022 (the “Acquisition Date”).
Under the terms of the APA, the Company paid up-front consideration of $15.3 million for certain assets and assumed liabilities related to V-Go. In addition, the Company will be obligated to make one-time, sales-based milestone payments to Zealand totaling up to a maximum of $10.0 million upon the achievement of specified annual revenue milestones between $40 million and $100 million.
The total preliminary purchase consideration for V-Go was as follows (in thousands):
Fair value of consideration: Amount
Cash consideration $ 15,341
Fair value of contingent consideration 610
The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at their respective fair values as of the Acquisition Date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill, which will be amortized over a period of 15 years for tax purposes. The estimates and assumptions used include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates to reflect the risk inherent in the future cash flows. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and resulting goodwill are subject to adjustment as the Company finalizes its purchase price accounting. The significant items for which a final fair value has not been determined include, but are not limited to the valuation of the intangible asset and assumed liabilities for rebates and return reserves. The Company does not expect its fair value determinations to materially change; however, there may be differences between the amounts recorded at the Acquisition Date and the final fair value analysis, which is expected to be complete no later than the second quarter of 2023.
The information below reflects the preliminary amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition Date (in thousands):
Amount
Assets:
Property and equipment 2,921
Intangible asset - Developed technology 1,200
Operating lease right-of-use assets 1,812
Liabilities:
Liabilities assumed 1,750
Operating lease liability 1,812
Total liabilities 3,562
Net assets acquired $ 15,951
Inventory of $11.2 million consisted of raw materials, semi-finished goods and finished goods. The fair value of the inventory was determined based on the estimated selling price to be generated from the finished goods, less costs to sell, including a reasonable margin, which are level 3 inputs not observable in the market. Property and equipment and assumed liabilities were recorded at their carrying amounts which were deemed to approximate their fair values based on level 3 unobservable inputs. The fair values of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for assumed operating leases were assessed in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, based on discounted cash flow from lease payments, utilizing the Company’s incremental borrowing rate of 7.25%.
The fair value of the intangible asset was determined by applying the income approach based on significant level 3 unobservable inputs.
80
The income approach estimates fair value based on the present value of cash flow that the assets could be expected to generate in the future. We developed internal estimates for expected cash flows in the present value calculation using inputs and significant assumptions that include historical revenues and earnings, long-term growth rate, discount rate, contributory asset charges and future tax rates, among others.
The fair value of the contingent milestone liability was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation method for the calculation of the potential payment and the Geometric Brownian Motion forecasting model to estimate the underlying revenue. Market based inputs and other level 3 inputs were used to forecast future revenue. The key inputs used included a risk-free rate of 2.95%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 65%, period of 15 years and credit risk of 12%.
The Company incurred acquisition-related costs of approximately $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Net revenue and loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $12.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively, since the Acquisition Date. The following unaudited pro-forma summary presents consolidated information of the Company as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2021 (in thousands):

QrumPharma
In December 2020, the Company acquired QrumPharma, Inc., a privately held pharmaceutical company developing inhalation treatments for severe chronic and recurrent pulmonary infections. The Company purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of QrumPharma for consideration consisting of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment for cash on hand, unpaid indebtedness, unpaid transaction expenses, and net working capital as follows (in thousands):
Consideration
Cash consideration $ 3,574
Transaction costs 531
Repayment of debt 11
Liabilities assumed 22
Cash acquired (155 )
Total consideration paid for IPR&D $ 13,233
The stock purchase of QrumPharma was accounted for under ASC 805, Business Combinations, as an asset acquisition since the transaction did not include the acquisition of inputs or processes and the fair value of the assets acquired were concentrated in a single identifiable asset, MNKD-101, which consisted of an in-process research and development asset (“IPR&D”). Under ASC 805, an entity that acquires IPR&D in an asset acquisition should follow the guidance in ASC 730, Research and Development, which requires that both tangible and intangible identifiable research and development assets with no alternative future use be allocated a portion of the consideration transferred and charged to expense at the acquisition date. Due to the stage of development of MNKD-101 at the date of acquisition, significant risk remained that the product would not obtain regulatory approval and it was not yet probable that there would be future economic benefit for the Company. Absent successful clinical results and regulatory approval, it was determined that there was no alternative future use associated with MNKD-101. Accordingly, the value of this asset was expensed at the time of acquisition and the total accumulated cost of $13.2 million, was allocated to the IPR&D asset using a relative fair value basis and the total consideration was recognized as in-process research and development expense in the consolidated statement of operations.
The acquisition of QrumPharma also included a potential future royalty payment of 1.5% of net sales in each of the calendar years in which the total annual and global adjusted net sales of specified products exceeds $50 million and a royalty payment of 1.0% of net sales in each of the calendar years in which the total annual and global adjusted net sales of nebulized clofazimine are greater than or equal to $200 million. The contingent consideration in the form of royalty payments will be expensed as incurred since the probability of MNKD-101 obtaining FDA approval and generating net sales that exceed the specified thresholds could not be reasonably estimated on the date of acquisition.

4. Investments
Cash Equivalents — Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original or remaining maturities of 90 days or less at the time of purchase that are readily convertible into cash. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company held $69.8 million and $124.2 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents.
Available-for-Sale Investment — The Thirona convertible note is classified as an available-for-sale security and is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Available-for-sale investments are subsequently measured at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income until realized. The Company determines fair value of its available-for-sale investments using level 3 inputs. As of December 31, 2022, the Company evaluated the fair value of its investment in Thirona using a Monte Carlo simulation which resulted in a fair value of $7.1 million. In addition, the Company determined that there was a related credit loss of $0.9 million on the investment which was recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Held-to-Maturity Investments — Investments consist of highly liquid investments that are intended to facilitate liquidity and capital preservation. As of December 31, 2022, the Company held $101.1 million of short-term investments and $2.0 million of long-term investments. As of December 31, 2021, the Company held $79.9 million of short-term investments and $56.6 million of long-term investments. The amortization or accretion of the Company’s investments is recognized as interest income in the consolidated statements of operations and was approximately $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. No allowance for credit losses on held-to-maturity securities was required as of December 31, 2022 or 2021.

6. Inventories
Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):
December 31,
Work-in-process and finished goods as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 include conversion costs and exclude the cost of insulin. All insulin inventory on hand was written off and the projected loss on the purchase commitment contract to purchase future insulin was accrued as of the end of 2016. Raw materials inventory included $0.8 million of pre-launch inventory as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, which consisted of FDKP received in November 2019 that will be used to manufacture Afrezza under an enhanced manufacturing process for FDKP. The Company expects to receive FDA approval of the new source of FDKP in 2024.
The Company analyzed its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value. The Company also performed an assessment of projected sales and evaluated the lower of cost or net realizable value and the potential excess inventory on hand at December 31, 2022 and 2021. Inventory that was forecasted to become obsolete due to expiration as well as inventory that does not meet acceptable standards is recorded in costs of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There was an inventory write-off of $2.2 million as a result of this assessment for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2021, there was an inventory write-off of $1.9 million as a result of this assessment, including $0.7 million related to the start of an agreement with a retail pharmacy. There was an inventory write-off of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Estimated Useful December 31,
Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 5-10 2,976 2,969
Total property and equipment, net $ 45,126 $ 36,612
_________________________
Depreciation expense related to property and equipment for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $3.3 million, $2.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company retired $2.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively of manufacturing equipment, computer hardware and software, computer equipment, lab equipment, and building improvements, as it was no longer in service. The net book value for the disposed assets was de minimis.
On November 8, 2021, the Company sold certain land, building and improvements located in Danbury, CT (the “Property”) to an affiliate of Creative Manufacturing Properties (the “Purchaser”) for a sales price of $102.3 million, subject to the terms and the conditions contained in a purchase and sale agreement. Effective with the closing of this transaction, the Company entered into a 20-year lease agreement with the Purchaser (the “Sale-Leaseback Transaction”). The sale of the Property and subsequent lease did not result in the transfer of control of the Property to the Purchaser; therefore, the Sale-Leaseback Transaction qualified as a failed sale leaseback transaction whereby the lease is accounted for as finance lease and the Property remains as a long-lived asset of the Company and is depreciated at its remaining useful life of 20 years or less. See Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies.
8. Goodwill and Other Intangible Asset
Goodwill — Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired plus liabilities assumed arising from business combinations. The balance of goodwill was approximately $2.4 million as of December 31, 2022 as a result of our acquisition of V-Go in May 2022. Goodwill is tested at least annually for impairment by assessing qualitative factors in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of net assets is below their carrying amounts. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Other Intangible Asset — Other intangible asset consisted of the following (in thousands):
Estimated Useful December 31, 2022
Life (Years) Cost Accumulated Amortization Net Book Value
Amortization expense related to the other intangible asset was de minimis for the year ended December 31, 2022.
The estimated annual amortization expense for the other intangible asset for the years ended December 31, 2023 through 2027 will be approximately $0.1 million per year and $0.7 million, thereafter.
The Company evaluates its other intangible asset for potential impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Senior convertible notes – In March 2021, the Company issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior convertible notes in a private offering. Pursuant to an option to purchase additional senior convertible notes in the purchase agreement between the Company and the initial purchasers of the Senior convertible notes, the Company issued an additional $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior convertible notes on March 15, 2021. The Senior convertible notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated March 4, 2021 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.
The Senior convertible notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on March 1, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The Senior convertible notes will bear cash interest from March 4, 2021 at an annual rate of 2.50% payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2021. The Senior convertible notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 1, 2025, only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2021 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the Senior convertible notes on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which the trading price (as defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the Senior convertible notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Senior convertible notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as set forth in the Indenture. On or after December 1, 2025 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture.
The initial conversion rate is 191.8281 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $5.21 per share of common stock). The initial conversion price of the Senior convertible notes represents a premium of approximately 30% to the last reported sale price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on March 1, 2021. The conversion rate for the Senior convertible notes is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the Senior convertible notes or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the Senior convertible notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the Senior convertible notes for a holder who elects to convert its Senior convertible notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called for redemption during the related redemption period (as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be.
The Company may not redeem the Senior convertible notes prior to March 6, 2024. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Senior convertible notes, at its option, on or after March 6, 2024 and prior to the 36th scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, if the last reported sale price of common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the Senior convertible notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior convertible notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company elects to redeem less than all of the outstanding Senior convertible notes, at least $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior convertible notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the relevant redemption notice date. No sinking fund is provided for the Senior convertible notes.
If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), then, subject to certain conditions and except as described in the Indenture, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior convertible notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
