Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

(unaudited)


1. Business and Basis of Presentation


Business

Biodel Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively, "Biodel" or the "Company", and formerly Global Positioning Group Ltd.) is a specialty pharmaceutical company located in Danbury, Connecticut. The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on December 3, 2003 and commenced operations in January 2004. The Company formed a wholly owned inactive subsidiary in the United Kingdom in October 2011 ("Biodel UK Limited").


Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. These condensed consolidated financial statements include Biodel UK Limited. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to fairly present the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP") have been consolidated or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 19, 2014. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any other interim period.

These condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Due to the Company's recurring and expected continuing losses from operations, the Company has concluded there is substantial doubt in the Company's ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. While the Company could sell an additional $9.1 million worth of common stock through its Sales Agreement with MLV & Co. LLC or direct Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC to purchase up to $14 million worth of shares of common stock under the Company's stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, there are certain factors, such as volume of trading in the stock, the stock price and the ability to terminate the agreement with notice, which could limit the amount the Company could raise in a short period of time (see Note 7). The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


2. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to their short term maturities.

ASC Topic 820 ("ASC 820", originally issued as SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used are as follows:

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

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, the Company had assets and liabilities that fell under the scope of ASC 820. The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the Company's warrant liability as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014 for the warrants issued in the May 2011 and June 2012

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

financings (as defined in Note 7). The Black-Scholes valuation model takes into account, as of the valuation date, factors including the current exercise price, the life of the warrant, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock, and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the warrant. Accordingly, the Company's fair value measurements of its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are classified as a Level 1 input and the warrant liability as a Level 3 input.

The fair value of the Company's financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis are as follows:

  Total         $ 23,574         $ 24,588         $         $ (1,014 )

The Company recognizes transfers into and out of the levels indicated above on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer or change. All changes within Level 3 can be found in the following Level 3 reconciliation table below:

                 
  Balance at September 30, 2014         $ (1,014 )
  Decrease in fair value of common stock warrant liability           546  
  Balance at December 31, 2014         $ (468 )

The unrealized gains or losses on the derivative liabilities are recorded as a change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the Company's statement of operations. A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. At each reporting period, the Company reviews the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC Topic 815-40. At each reporting period, all assets and liabilities

(unaudited)

for which the fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs or instruments which trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency are classified as Level 3.


3. Pre-Launch Inventory

Inventory costs associated with product candidates that have not yet received regulatory approval are capitalized if the Company believes there is probable future commercial use and future economic benefit. If the probability of future commercial use and future economic benefit cannot be reasonably determined, then pre-launch inventory costs associated with such product candidates are expensed as research and development expense during the period the costs are incurred. Because all of its product candidates are in early stages of preclinical or clinical development, the Company currently expenses all purchases of pre-launch inventory as research and development, and expects to continue to do so until it can determine the probability of regulatory approval for the applicable product candidate.


4. Stock-Based Compensation

In March 2013, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to and restatement of the Company's 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, the "2010 Plan"). The 2010 Plan replaced the Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and 2005 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan. Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to the Company's closing stock price on the date of the grant. Stock options vest over a period of up to four years with a contractual life of seven years. The Company estimates the fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company uses the following assumptions in its Black Scholes valuation calculations:

Risk-free rate - The Company uses interest rates based on the yield of US Treasury strips on the date the award is granted and the expected term of the award.

Forfeitures - The Company estimates forfeitures based on actual historical and estimated future forfeitures.

Dividends - The Company has assumed that dividends will not be paid.

Volatility - The Company uses its historical volatility.

Expected term - The expected option term represents the period that stock based awards are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method provided in Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 107, Share-Based Payment, ("SAB No. 107"), which averages an award's weighted-average vesting period and expected term for "plain vanilla" share options. Under SAB No. 107, options are considered to be "plain vanilla" if they have the following basic characteristics: (i) granted "at-the money"; (ii) exercisability is conditioned upon service through the vesting date; (iii) termination of service prior to vesting results in forfeiture; (iv) limited exercise period following termination of service; and (v) options are non-transferable and non-hedgeable.

In December 2007, the SEC issued SAB No. 110, Share-Based Payment, ("SAB No. 110"). SAB No. 110 was effective January 1, 2008 and expresses the views of the Staff of the SEC with respect to extending the use of the simplified method, as discussed in SAB No. 107, in developing an estimate of the expected term of "plain vanilla" share options in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The Company will continue to use the simplified method until it has the historical data necessary to provide a reasonable estimate of expected life in accordance with SAB No. 107, as amended by SAB No. 110. For the expected term, the Company has "plain-vanilla" stock options, and therefore used a simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term for options granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 as permitted by SAB No. 107.The Company expenses ratably over the vesting period the cost of the stock options granted to employees and non-employee directors. The total stock-based compensation cost for the three months ended December 2014 which included stock based compensation charges related to the Company's 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was $195. In comparison, the total compensation cost for the three months ended December 2013 was $241.

At December 31, 2014, the stock-based total compensation cost related to non-vested options not yet recognized was $1,861, which will be recognized over the next four years assuming the employees complete their service period for vesting of the options.

The following table summarizes the stock option activity during the three months ended December 31, 2014:

Restricted Stock Units

The Company has granted restricted stock units ("RSUs") to executive officers and employees pursuant to the 2010 Plan from time to time. There is no direct cost to the recipients of RSUs, except for any applicable taxes.

Each RSU award that was granted to the Company's executive officers and employees represents one share of common stock. Each year following the annual vesting date, between January 1st and March 15th, the Company will issue common stock for each vested RSU. During the period when the RSU is vested but not distributed, the RSUs cannot be transferred and the grantee has no voting rights. If the Company declares a dividend, RSU recipients will receive payment based upon the percentage of RSUs that has vested prior to the date of declaration. The costs of the awards, determined as the fair market value of the shares on the grant date, are expensed per the vesting schedule outlined in the award.

Based on historical experience of option cancellations, the Company has estimated an annualized forfeiture rate of 10%. Forfeiture rates will be adjusted over the requisite service period when actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the estimate.

The stock-based compensation expense associated with the RSUs has been recorded in the statement of operations and in additional paid-in-capital on the balance sheets is as follows:

2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company's 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") was adopted by its board of directors and approved by its stockholders on March 20, 2007. The Purchase Plan became effective upon the closing of the Company's initial public offering. The Purchase Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Under the Purchase Plan, eligible employees may contribute up to 15% of their eligible earnings for the period of that offering withheld for the purchase of common stock under the Purchase Plan. The employee's purchase price is equal to the lower of: 85% of the fair market value per share on the start date of the offering period in which the employee is enrolled or 85% of the fair market value per share on the semi-annual purchase date. The Purchase Plan imposes a limitation upon a participant's right to acquire common stock if immediately after the purchase the employee would own 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of the Company's common stock or of any of its affiliates. The Purchase Plan provides for an automatic rollover when the purchase price for a new offering period is lower than previously established purchase price(s). The Purchase Plan also provides for a one-time election that allows an employee the opportunity to enroll into a new offering period when the new offering is higher than their current offering price. This election must be made within 30 days from the start of a new offering period. Offering periods are twenty-seven months in length. The compensation charge/(credit) in connection with the Purchase Plan for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was $3. In comparison, for the three months ended December 31, 2013, the Company expensed $(1).

An aggregate of 500,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance pursuant to purchase rights to be granted to the Company's eligible employees under the Purchase Plan. The Purchase Plan shares are replenished annually on the first day of each calendar year by virtue of an evergreen provision. The provision allows for share replenishment equal to the lesser of 1% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on that date or 25,000 shares. As of December 31, 2013 and 2014, a total of 361,880 and 376,262 shares, respectively, were reserved and available for issuance under the Purchase Plan. As of December 31, 2013 and 2014, the Company has issued 113,120 and 123,738 shares, respectively, under the Purchase Plan.


5. Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10-25 ("ASC 740-10-25"), Accounting for Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company files U.S. federal and state tax returns and has determined that its major tax jurisdictions are the United States and Connecticut. The tax years through 2014 remain open and subject to examination by the appropriate governmental agencies in the United States and Connecticut.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes limitations on the use of U.S. federal net operating losses ("NOLs") upon a 50% or more change in ownership in the Company within a three-year period. The Company's NOLs will continue to be available to offset taxable income (until such NOLs are either used or expire) subject to the Section

-10-


Biodel Inc.

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

(unaudited)

382 annual limitation. If the Section 382 annual limitation amount is not fully utilized in a particular tax year, then the unused portion from that particular tax year will be added to the Section 382 annual limitation in subsequent years. The Company has determined that ownership change, under Section 382, occurred as a result of the May 2011financing and therefore, the ability to utilize its current NOLs is further limited.

The Company has approximately $58 million of NOLs, which, if not used, expire beginning in 2024 through 2034.

The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 was 0% and differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to net operating losses. Due to the substantial doubt related to Biodel's ability to continue as a going concern and utilize its deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance for the full amount of the deferred tax assets has been established as of December 31, 2013 and 2014.


6. Net Loss per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share has been calculated by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. All potentially dilutive common shares have been excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The amount of options, common shares underlying warrants, common shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock and RSUs excluded are as follows:

                                   
              Three Months Ended  
              December 31,

7. Financings


July 2014 Equity Line Purchase Agreement

On July 25, 2014, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), together with a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC ("LPC"). Under the terms, and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right to sell to LPC, and LPC is obligated to purchase, up to $15 million in shares of common stock, subject to certain limitations, from time to time over the 36-month period commencing on the date that a registration statement, which the Company agreed to file with the SEC pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, is declared effective by the SEC and a final prospectus in connection therewith is filed. The Company's registration statement was declared effective on September 2, 2014. The Company was obligated, within twenty (20) calendar days, to file with the SEC an initial Registration Statement covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities as shall be permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations and interpretations so as to permit the resale of such Registrable Securities by LPC under Rule 415 under the Securities Act at then prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), as mutually determined by both the Company and LPC in consultation with their respective legal counsel, subject to the aggregate number of authorized shares of the Company's Common Stock then available for issuance in its Certificate of Incorporation. The Company must use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act and available for the resale by LPC of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby at all times until the date on which LPC shall have resold all the Registrable Securities covered thereby and no available amount remains under the Purchase Agreement. The Company may direct LPC, at its sole discretion and subject to certain conditions, to purchase up to 150,000 shares of common stock in any business day, increasing to amounts of up to 250,000 shares, depending upon the closing sale price of the common stock. In addition, the Company may direct LPC to purchase additional shares as accelerated purchases if, on the date of a regular purchase, the closing sale price of the common

(unaudited)

stock is not below $2.50 per share (subject to adjustment). The purchase price of shares of common stock to be purchased under the Purchase Agreement are based on the prevailing market prices of such shares at the time of sales, but in no event will the Company be able to sell shares to LPC on a day when the closing sale price of the common stock is less than a floor price of $1.50 per share (subject to adjustment). The Company will control the timing and amount of any sales of common stock to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. As consideration for LPC's commitment to purchase shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to LPC 95,000 shares of Common Stock as commitment shares, with a fair market value of $189, which is recorded as the cost of capital in additional paid in capital. During the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company sold 300,000 shares of common stock and received proceeds, net of expenses, of $469. As of December 31, 2014, the Company sold 600,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and received proceeds, net of expenses, of $959. During the period from January 1, 2015 through the date of this filing, the Company sold an aggregate of 150,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and received proceeds, net of expenses, of $204.

May 2013 At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement


In May 2013, the Company entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with MLV & Co. LLC ("MLV"), under which the Company may initially issue and sell shares of common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $12.4 million from time to time through MLV as the Company's sales agent. During the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company sold 66,057 shares of common stock and received proceeds, net of expenses, of $100. As of December 31, 2014, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,630,878 shares of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement and received proceeds, net of sales agent commissions and expenses, of $3.1 million. During the period from January 1, 2015 through the date of this filing, the Company sold an aggregate of XX shares of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement, and received proceeds, net of expenses, of $XX.


June 2012 Private Placement

In June 2012, the Company completed a private placement (the "2012 Private Placement") of an aggregate of 4,250,020 shares of the Company's common stock, 3,605,607 shares of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,749,469 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.66 per share. For each unit consisting of either a share of common stock or Series B Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock, the purchasers in the June 2012 Private Placement paid a negotiated price of $2.355. The warrants are immediately exercisable and will expire on June 26, 2017, five years from the original issuance date of June 27, 2012. The Company received net proceeds, after deducting placement agents' fees and other transaction expenses, of approximately $17,100 from the 2012 Private Placement. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company's common stock at any time at the option of the holder, except that the securities purchase agreement that the Company entered into in connection with the 2012 Private Placement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") provides that a holder will be prohibited from converting shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of common stock if, as a result of such conversion, such holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.98% of the total number of shares of common stock then issued and outstanding. In the event of the Company's liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will receive a payment equal to $0.01 per share of Series B Preferred Stock before any proceeds are distributed to the holders of common stock. After the payment of this preferential amount, and subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, holders of Series B Preferred Stock and holders of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock will participate ratably in the distribution of any remaining assets with the common stock and any other class or series of capital stock that participates with the common stock in such distributions. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock will generally have no voting rights, except as required by law and except that the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock will be required to amend the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, and the Company is required to pay, dividends on shares of the Series B Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) actually paid on shares of the common stock when, as and if such dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) are paid on shares of the common stock.

As required by the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 27, 2012, which was within

-12-


Biodel Inc.

(unaudited)

30 days after the closing of the 2012 Private Placement. The Registration Statement, which was declared effective on August 13, 2012, registers the resale of the shares of common stock and Series B Preferred Stock issued and sold in the 2012 Private Placement, the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock issued and sold in the 2012 Private Placement, and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued and sold in the 2012 Private Placement. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to pay liquidated damages to the purchasers in the 2012 Private Placement if, after effectiveness of the Registration Statement and subject to certain specified exceptions, the Company suspends the use of the Registration Statement or the Registration Statement ceases to remain continuously effective as to all the securities for which it is required to be effective (each such event, a "Registration Default"). Subject to specified exceptions, for each 30-day period or portion thereof during which a Registration Default remains uncured, the Company is obligated to pay liquidated damages to each purchaser in cash in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by each such purchaser in the 2012 Private Placement, up to a maximum of 8.0% of such aggregate purchase price. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company does not believe that it is probable that it will be obligated to pay any such liquidated damages. Accordingly, the Company has not established an accrual for liquidated damages.

In the event that the Company enters into a merger or change of control transaction, the holders of the warrants issued in the 2012 Private Placement will be entitled to receive consideration as if they had exercised the warrants immediately prior to such transaction, or they may require the Company to purchase the unexercised warrants at the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant) of the warrant on the date of such transaction. The holders have up to 30 days following any such transaction to exercise this right. As a result of this provision, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities at their fair value on each reporting date.

At December 31, 2014, the fair value of the warrant liability determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model was approximately $467. In comparison, the fair value of the warrant liability at September 30, 2014 was $994.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an adjustment to fair value of common stock warrant liability of $527 within Other (income), to reflect a decrease in the valuation of the warrants from September 30, 2014 to December 31, 2014.

The following summarizes the changes in value of the warrant liability from September 30, 2014 through December 31, 2014:

                 
  Balance at September 30, 2014           994  
  Decrease in fair value of common stock warrant liability           (527 )
  Balance at December 31, 2014           467  


May 2011 Registered Direct Offering

In May 2011, the Company completed a registered direct offering (the "May 2011 Offering") of an aggregate of 3,018,736 shares of the Company's common stock, 1,813,944 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,256,929 shares of the Company's common stock. The shares and warrants were sold in units consisting of (i) one share of common stock and (ii) one warrant to purchase 0.1625 of a share of common stock, at an exercise price of $9.92 per share of the Company's common stock. However, one investor also purchased units consisting of one share of Series A Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 0.1625 of a share of common stock. No fractional warrants were issued. Each unit was sold at a price of $8.64 per unit. These units were not issued or certificated. The shares and warrants were immediately separated. The warrants will expire on May 17, 2016, five years from the original issuance date of May 18, 2011. The Company received net proceeds, after deducting placement agents' fees and other offering expenses, of approximately $28,000 from the May 2011 Offering. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into one quarter of a share of the Company's common stock at any time at the option of the holder, provided that the holder will be prohibited from converting the shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of the Company's common stock if, as a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.98% of the total number of shares of the Company's common stock then issued and outstanding. In the event of the Company's liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will receive a payment equal to $0.01 per share of Series A Preferred Stock before any proceeds are distributed to the holders of the Company's common stock. After the payment of this preferential amount, and subject to the rights of holders of any class or series of capital

stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Series A Preferred Stock, holders of Series A Preferred Stock will participate ratably in the distribution of any remaining assets with the Company's common stock and any other class or series of capital stock that participates with the common stock in such distributions. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will generally have no voting rights, except as required by law and except that the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock will be required to amend the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive any dividends, unless and until specifically declared by the Company's board of directors. As of December 31, 2014, all Series A Preferred Stock has been converted into common stock and none is outstanding.

In the event that the Company enters into a merger or change of control transaction, the holders of the warrants issued in the May 2011 Offering will be entitled to receive consideration as if they had exercised the warrants immediately prior to such transaction, or they may require the Company to purchase the unexercised warrants at the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant) of the warrant on the date of such transaction. As per terms of the warrant, the holders have up to 30 days following any such transaction to exercise this right. As a result of this provision, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities at their fair value on each reporting date.

At December 31, 2014, the fair value of the warrant liability determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model was approximately $1. In comparison, the fair value of the warrant liability at September 30, 2014 was $20.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an adjustment to fair value of common stock warrant liability of $19 within Other (income), to reflect a decrease in the valuation of the warrants from September 30, 2014 to December 31, 2014.

The following summarizes the changes in value of the warrant liability from September 30, 2014 through December 31, 2014:

                 
  Balance at September 30, 2014         $ 20  
  Decrease in fair value of common stock warrant liability           (19 )
  Balance at December 31, 2014         $ 1  


Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Warrant Liability

The Company has determined its warrant liability to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate, as of December 31, 2014, the fair value of the warrants issued in the June 2012 Private Placement and the May 2011 Offering.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company estimated such fair value using the following assumptions:

                 
  June 2012 Financing           December 31, 2014  
  Stock price         $ 1.33  
  Exercise price         $ 2.66  
  Risk-free interest rate           0.67 %
  Expected remaining term (years)           2.49  
  Expected volatility           58 %
  Dividend yield            
  Warrants outstanding           2,749,469  

                 
  May 2011 Offering           December 31, 2014  
  Stock price         $ 1.33  
  Exercise price         $ 9.92  
  Risk-free interest rate           0.25 %
  Expected remaining term (years)           1.38  
  Expected volatility           58 %
  Dividend yield            
  Warrants outstanding           2,256,929

(unaudited)

Risk-Free Interest Rate. This is the United States Treasury rate for the measurement date having a term equal to the expected remaining term of the warrant. An increase in the risk-free interest rate will increase the fair value and the associated derivative liability.

Term of Warrants. This is the period of time over which the warrant is expected to remain outstanding and is based on management's estimate, taking into consideration the remaining contractual life.

Expected Volatility. This is a measure of the amount by which the stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate. The Company uses a weighted-average of its historic volatility over the retrospective period corresponding to the expected remaining term of the warrants on the measurement date. An increase in the expected volatility will increase the fair value and the associated derivative liability.

Dividend Yield. The Company has not made any dividend payments nor does it have plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. An increase in the dividend yield will decrease the fair value and the associated derivative liability.


Participating Securities

If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells securities or other property to holders of any class of common stock, the holders of the warrants are entitled to also acquire those same securities as if they held the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon complete exercise of the warrants.

As such, given that the warrant holders will participate fully on any dividends or dividend equivalents, the Company determined that the warrants are participating securities and therefore are subject to ASC 260-10-55 earnings per share. These securities were excluded from the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 loss per share calculation since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.


8. Commitments


Leases

As of December 31, 2014, the Company leased three facilities in Danbury, Connecticut.

The Company renewed its lease for laboratory space in October 2014 for one year. This lease provides for annual basic lease payments of $68, plus the annual Consumers Price Index ("CPI") increase for October, not to exceed 6%, plus operating expenses.

The Company also renewed its lease agreement for additional office space adjacent to its laboratory space in October 2014 for one year. This lease provides for annual basic lease payments of $31, plus the annual CPI increase for October, not to exceed 6%, plus operating expenses.

In November 2013, the Company renewed its lease for its corporate office for five years. This lease provides for annual basic lease payments of $388, plus the annual CPI increase for May, not to exceed 6%, plus operating expenses.

Rent expense for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $166 and $165, respective.


Other Commitments

The Company has entered into certain licensing and collaboration agreements for products currently under development. The Company may be obligated in future periods to make additional payments, which would become due and payable only upon the achievement of certain research and development, regulatory, and approval milestones. The specific timing of such milestones cannot be predicted and depend upon future discretionary research and clinical developments, as well as, regulatory agency actions. Further, under the terms of certain agreements the Company may be obligated to pay commercial milestones contingent upon the realization of sales revenues and sublicense revenues. Due to the long range nature of such commercial milestones, they are neither probable at this time nor predictable, and consequently are not considered contingent milestone payment amounts.


9. Government Grants

Grants received are recognized as grant income when the grants become receivable, provided there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and there is reasonable assurance the

grant will be received. The Company requests cash funding under approved grants as expenses are incurred (not in advance) and reports these receipts on the statement of operations as a separate line item entitled "Government Grants." The corresponding expenses are included in research and development expenses. In July and September 2012, the Company was awarded two National Institutes of Health grants for the development of a concentrated ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulation and a stable glucagon formulation, respectively, for use in an artificial pancreas. Both awards are for two years and total approximately $582 and $583, respectively.

Work on the grant for the development of a concentrated ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulation started in August 2012 and completed in June 2014. Expenses incurred were $0 and $41 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Work on the grant for the stable glucagon formulation started in January 2013 and completed in June 2014. Expenses incurred were $0 and $56 respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

The Company reported grant income of $0 and $97 respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Overview

We are a specialty biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative treatments for diabetes that may be safer, more effective and more convenient for patients. We develop our product candidates by applying our formulation technologies to existing drugs in order to improve their therapeutic profiles. Our glucagon formulations and presentations are designed to be stable at room temperature and are intended for use by caregivers with little to no medical training as a rescue treatment for diabetes patients experiencing severe hypoglycemia. Our proprietary insulin formulations are designed to be more rapid-acting than the formulations currently available to Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes patients. We refer to these as "ultra-rapid-acting" insulin formulations.

Our lead product candidate is a glucagon emergency management, or GEM, device that is intended to treat diabetes patients experiencing severe hypoglycemia, or very low concentrations of blood glucose. GEM is comprised of lyophilized glucagon and an aqueous diluent in a proprietary injection device from Unilife Medical Solutions, Inc., or Unilife. The GEM device is a dual-chamber design that automatically reconstitutes lyophilized glucagon immediately prior to injection and features automatic needle retraction on full dose delivery. We have designed the GEM device with the goal of optimizing its ease of use for patient caregivers in an emergency.

In the third quarter of calendar year 2014, we submitted an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for our GEM product candidate. We have initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial to assess the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of BIOD-961, the reconstituted glucagon formulation intended for use in the GEM device, in the fourth calendar quarter of 2014. If the Phase 1 clinical trial is successful, we intend to complete the pivotal trial for our GEM product candidate by the end of calendar year 2015 and submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, to the FDA in calendar year 2016.

In addition to our GEM product candidate, we are developing ultra-rapid-acting proprietary insulin formulations that are designed to be more rapid-acting than the formulations currently available to Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes patients. For example, BIOD-123, which was evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical trial, combines recombinant human insulin, or RHI, with our proprietary combination of excipients to increase the rate of absorption following subcutaneous injection when compared to other commercially available insulin formulations, including "rapid-acting" mealtime insulin analogs such as Humalog®, marketed by Eli Lilly, NovoLog®, marketed by Novo Nordisk, and Apidra®, marketed by Sanofi. Similarly, we have developed BIOD-531, a concentrated ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulation. BIOD-531 contains 400 units of RHI per milliliter (instead of the standard 100 units per milliliter), and, like BIOD-123, is formulated with EDTA, citrate and magnesium sulfate. When delivered by subcutaneous injection, BIOD-531 is characterized by a rapid onset of action and a prolonged duration of action, which we believe could address an unmet medical need for a concentrated insulin with an initial rate of absorption superior to that of existing concentrated insulins and prandial/basal premixed insulins.

In addition to our RHI-based ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulations, we are using our proprietary excipients to develop analog-based ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulations using either insulin lispro, the active pharmaceutical ingredient in Humalog®, or insulin aspart, the active pharmaceutical ingredient in NovoLog®.

We were incorporated in December 2003 and commenced active operations in January 2004. To date, we have generated no revenues and have incurred significant losses. We expect to continue to incur operating losses as we continue our efforts to develop and commercialize our product candidates. We have financed our operations and internal growth through various financing transactions, including our initial public offering in May 2007 and several subsequent transactions, including, more recently, our June 2013 underwritten public offering. In addition, we recently raised funds pursuant to our At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement, or the sales agreement, with MLV & Co. LLC, or MLV, and our stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, or LPC, and we may issue shares of our common stock pursuant to these agreements in the future. We have devoted substantially all of our efforts to research and development activities, including clinical trials. Our net loss was $4.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

As of December 31, 2014 we had approximately $19.7 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $24.6 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2014. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating expenses and capital expenditures at least until the third calendar

-19-


quarter of 2015. See "Going Concern Consideration", below. We believe that future cash expenditures will be partially offset by raising additional capital from capital markets, revenues from research grants and proceeds derived from potential collaborations, including, but not limited to, upfront fees, research and development funding, milestone payments and royalties. We can give no assurances that such funding will, in fact, be realized in the time frames we expect, or at all. We may be required to secure alternative financing arrangements or defer or limit some or all of our research, development or clinical projects.


Financial Operations Overview


Revenues

To date, we have generated no revenues. We do not expect to begin generating any revenues unless any of our product candidates receive marketing approval, or if we receive payments in connection with strategic collaborations that we may enter into for the commercialization of our product candidates.


Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist of the costs associated with our basic research activities, as well as the costs associated with our drug development efforts, conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing efforts and activities related to regulatory filings. Our research and development expenses consist of:

external research and development expenses incurred under agreements with third-party contract research organizations and investigative sites, third-party manufacturing organizations and consultants;

employee-related expenses, which include salaries and benefits for the personnel involved in our preclinical and clinical drug development and manufacturing activities; and

facilities, depreciation and other allocated expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, depreciation of leasehold improvements and equipment and laboratory and other supplies.

We intend to focus our research and development efforts on conducting preclinical studies and Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials to determine our preferred development, clinical and regulatory program for our ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulations and our glucagon formulations and presentations. We also expect to conduct a pivotal clinical trial in support of an NDA for our GEM product candidate. We anticipate that our research and development expenses for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015 will increase as compared to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, as we continue to:

conduct the development work necessary to finalize the formulation and design of our GEM product candidate and undertake manufacturing activities in support of clinical trials with that product candidate;

produce validation and registration batches of our GEM product candidate to support the submission of an NDA with the FDA;

conduct clinical trials with our GEM product candidate, including at least one pivotal clinical trial required for FDA approval of an NDA;

conduct clinical trials with our BIOD-531 product candidate, including a planned Phase 2, parallel group study in patients with Type 2 diabetes over a six-month treatment period;

conduct the required stability, preclinical and human factors and user acceptability studies to support the approval of our GEM device and one or more insulin injection devices intended for use with BIOD-531; and

purchase active pharmaceutical ingredients and other materials in support of our product candidates.

Over the longer term, we anticipate that these expenses will increase further as we:

prepare and file an NDA for our GEM product candidate; and

conduct later stage clinical trials of BIOD-531, including, potentially, pivotal clinical trials required for FDA approval of an NDA.

We have used our employee and infrastructure resources across multiple research projects and our drug development programs. A substantial majority of our research and development expenses incurred to date are attributable to our ultra-rapid-acting insulin program.

In July and September 2012, we were awarded two National Institutes of Health grants for the development of a concentrated ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulation and a stable glucagon formulation, respectively, for use in an artificial

-20-


pancreas. The July 2012 award was intended to fund research to develop a proprietary ultra-rapid-insulin product candidate at high concentrations suited to provide sufficient quantities of insulin in an external artificial pancreas pump device that has limited volume capacity. The July 2012 award was for two years and totals $582 thousand. The September 2012 award was intended to fund research to develop a proprietary glucagon product candidate optimized to algorithmically deliver glucagon as part of a bi-hormonal closed loop system to mitigate hypoglycemic events. The September 2012 award was for two years and totals $583 thousand. As of September 30, 2014, all grant income was earned and recorded.

The following table illustrates, for each period presented, our research and development costs by nature of the cost.

The following table illustrates, for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2014, our research and development costs by project. Inception to date is not noted because we did not track expenses by project in prior years, and therefore cannot accurately reflect past expense history by project.

  Other           865           840  
  Total         $ 3,741           3,407  

The successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, specific timing and estimated costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the remainder of the development of, or the period, if any, in which material net cash inflows may commence from our product candidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing drugs, including the uncertainty of:

the progress, timing or success of our research and development and clinical programs for our product candidates, particularly our GEM product candidate and our BIOD-531 product candidate;

our ability to conduct the development work necessary to finalize the formulation and presentation of our GEM product candidate, as well as the preclinical studies, clinical trials and manufacturing activities necessary to support the submission of an NDA for that candidate;

the ability and willingness of our existing strategic partners, service providers and suppliers, upon which we rely in the advancement of our product candidates, to meet the obligations set forth in our agreements with them, including Unilife, which is responsible for designing and manufacturing the device intended for use with our GEM product candidate, as well as delivering three registration lots of the filled and finished GEM device required for submitting an NDA to the FDA;

the success of our formulation development work to improve the stability of our newer ultra-and rapid-acting insulin analog-based formulations while maintaining the pharmacokinetic and injection site toleration characteristics associated with earlier formulations;

-21-


the results of our real-time stability programs for our glucagon-, RHI-, and insulin analog-based product candidates, including the reproducibility of earlier, smaller scale, stability studies and our ability to accurately project long term stability on the basis of accelerated testing;

our ability to accurately anticipate technical challenges that we may face in the development of our glucagon-, RHI-, and insulin analog-based product candidates;

our ability to secure approval by the FDA for our product candidates under Section 505(b)(2) of the FFDCA;

our ability to enter into collaboration arrangements for the commercialization of our product candidates and the success or failure of any such collaborations into which we enter, or our ability to commercialize our product candidates ourselves;

our ability to enforce our patents for our product candidates and our ability to secure additional patents for our product candidates;

our ability to protect our intellectual property and operate our business without infringing upon the intellectual property rights of others;

the degree of clinical utility of our product candidates, particularly with regard to our ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulations, which have not yet been shown to be clinically superior to existing rapid-acting insulin analogs;

the emergence of competing technologies and products and other adverse market developments, such as advancements in glucagon stabilization technologies that could enable a room-temperature rescue product in a portable, easy to use presentation;

the ability of our contract manufacturing organizations or collaborators to produce our products in our final dosage form and in the quantities we may require;

our ability to secure adequate supplies of active pharmaceutical ingredients to support our product development programs and, if successful, the commercialization of one or more product candidates;

our capabilities and strategies for manufacturing, marketing and commercializing a product candidate; and

our ability to accurately estimate anticipated operating losses, future revenues, capital requirements and the ability to fulfill our needs for additional financing.

A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulations or our liquid glucagon formulation, could mean a significant change in the costs and timing associated with product development.


General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for personnel, including stock-based compensation expenses, in our executive, legal, accounting, finance and information technology functions. Other general and administrative expenses include travel expenses, costs associated with industry conventions, professional fees, such as legal and accounting fees and consulting costs and facility-related costs not otherwise allocated to research and development expense.

We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses in the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015 will remain substantially the same as in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 as we continue to focus our efforts on product formulation activities and begin advancing our product candidates into later stage clinical trials, including Phase 3 pivotal trials. Over the longer term, however, these expenses could increase as we prepare to file an NDA in support of our GEM product candidate and, possibly, commence pre-commercialization activities.


Warrant Liability

In June 2012, we issued warrants to purchase 2,749,469 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.66 per share in connection with our June 2012 private placement. These warrants will expire on June 26, 2017, five years from the original issuance date of June 27, 2012. In May 2011, we issued warrants to purchase 2,256,929 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $9.92 per share in connection with our May 2011 registered direct offering. These warrants will expire on May 17, 2016, five years from the original issuance date of May 18, 2011. Under the terms of both the 2012 warrants and the 2011 warrants, if we enter into a merger or change of control transaction, the holders of the warrants will be entitled to receive consideration as if they had exercised the warrants immediately prior to such transaction, or they may require us to purchase the unexercised warrants at the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the

-22-


applicable warrant) of the warrant on the date of such transaction. The holders have up to 30 days following any such transaction to exercise this right. As a result of this provision, we recognize the 2012 and 2011 warrants as liabilities at their fair value on each reporting date.

We use the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of the warrants. The Black-Scholes valuation model takes into account, as of the valuation date, factors including the current exercise price, the expected life of the warrant, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock, and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the warrant. Using this model, we recorded an initial warrant liability of $4.8 million for the 2012 warrants and $9.4 million for the 2011 warrants, in each case as of the initial warrant issuance date. The liability for both the 2012 and 2011 warrants is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized currently in the statements of operations under the caption "Adjustment to fair value of common stock warrant liability."


Interest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. In November 2007, our board of directors approved investment policy guidelines, the primary objectives of which are the preservation of capital, the maintenance of liquidity and maintenance of appropriate fiduciary control - subject to our business objectives and tax situation. We have maintained an investment strategy of investing primarily in a premier commercial money market account, which consists primarily of short-term debt securities issued by the U.S. government, Treasury securities and U.S. government agencies. We intend to maintain this conservative strategy for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015.


Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various 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.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 and in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe that our accounting policies relating to research and development costs, warrant liability, and stock-based compensation are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. These policies are described under "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. There have been no material changes to such policies since the filing of such Annual Report.

The change to fair value of common stock warrant liability during the three months ended December 31, 2014 was primarily a result of a decrease in the price of our common stock from $1.67 per share as of September 30, 2014 to $1.33 per share as of December 31, 2014. The change to fair value of common stock warrant liability during the three months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily a result of a decrease in the price of our common stock from $3.15 per share as of September 30, 2013 to $2.28 per share as of December 31, 2013.

Net loss was $(4.7) million, or $(0.20) per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $(2.4) million, or $(0.12) per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to the expenses described above. We expect our losses to continue for the foreseeable future as we continue our development efforts.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Sources of Liquidity and Cash Flows

As a result of our significant research and development expenditures and the lack of any approved products or other sources of revenue, we have not been profitable and have generated significant operating losses since we were incorporated in 2003. We initially funded our research and development operations through aggregate gross proceeds of $26.6 million from our private financing transactions that we completed prior to our initial public offering. We received an aggregate of approximately $206 million from our initial public offering in May 2007, our follow-on offering in February 2008, our registered direct offerings in August 2010 and May 2011, our private placement in June 2012, our public offering in June 2013, our sales agreement with MLV, and purchase agreement with LPC.

At December 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling approximately $19.7 million. We currently invest our excess funds in a premium commercial money market fund with one major financial institution. We plan to continue to invest our cash and cash equivalents in accordance with our approved investment policy guidelines, which set forth our policy to hold investment securities to maturity.

Net cash used in operating activities was $5.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and $4.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013. This increase was primarily due to increased clinical trial expenses during this period. Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and $6 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2013. This decrease was due to a decrease in the purchase of laboratory equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $579 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and $10 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2013. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2014 reflect proceeds from the sale of our common stock through our equity line, ATM and our employee stock purchase plan. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2013 reflect proceeds from the sale of our common stock through our employee stock purchase plan.


Funding Requirements

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating expenses and capital expenditures at least until the third calendar quarter of 2015. We have based this estimate upon assumptions that may prove to be wrong and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our existing capital resources are not sufficient to complete our clinical development program for our GEM device or an ultra-rapid-acting insulin product candidate. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development and commercialization of our product candidates, and to the extent that we may or may not enter into collaborations with third parties to participate in their development and commercialization, we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenditures associated with our current anticipated clinical trials.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

the progress, timing or success of our research and development and clinical programs for our product candidates, particularly our GEM product candidate and our BIOD-531 product candidate;

our ability to conduct the development work necessary to finalize the formulation and presentation of our GEM product candidate, as well as the preclinical studies, clinical trials and manufacturing activities necessary to support the submission of an NDA for that candidate;

the ability and willingness of our existing strategic partners, service providers and suppliers, upon which we rely in the advancement of our product candidates, to meet the obligations set forth in our agreements with them, including Unilife, which is responsible for designing and manufacturing the device intended for use with our GEM product candidate, as well as delivering three registration lots of the filled and finished GEM device required for submitting an NDA to the FDA;

the success of our formulation development work to improve the stability of our newer ultra-and rapid-acting insulin analog-based formulations while maintaining the pharmacokinetic and injection site toleration characteristics associated with earlier formulations;

-25-


the results of our real-time stability programs for our glucagon-, RHI-, and insulin analog-based product candidates, including the reproducibility of earlier, smaller scale, stability studies and our ability to accurately project long term stability on the basis of accelerated testing;

our ability to accurately anticipate technical challenges that we may face in the development of our glucagon-, RHI-, and insulin analog-based product candidates;

our ability to secure approval by the FDA for our product candidates under Section 505(b)(2) of the FFDCA;

our ability to enter into collaboration arrangements for the commercialization of our product candidates and the success or failure of any such collaborations into which we enter, or our ability to commercialize our product candidates ourselves;

our ability to enforce our patents for our product candidates and our ability to secure additional patents for our product candidates;

our ability to protect our intellectual property and operate our business without infringing upon the intellectual property rights of others;

the degree of clinical utility of our product candidates, particularly with regard to our ultra-rapid-acting insulin formulations, which have not yet been shown to be clinically superior to existing rapid-acting insulin analogs;

the emergence of competing technologies and products and other adverse market developments, such as advancements in glucagon stabilization technologies that could enable a room-temperature rescue product in a portable, easy to use presentation;

the ability of our contract manufacturing organizations or collaborators to produce our products in our final dosage form and in the quantities we may require;

our ability to secure adequate supplies of active pharmaceutical ingredients to support our product development programs and, if successful, the commercialization of one or more product candidates;

our capabilities and strategies for manufacturing, marketing and commercializing a product candidate; and

our ability to accurately estimate anticipated operating losses, future revenues, capital requirements and the ability to fulfill our needs for additional financing.

We do not anticipate generating product revenue for the next few years. In the absence of additional funding, we expect our continuing operating losses to result in increases in our cash used in operations over the next several years. To the extent our capital resources are insufficient to meet our future capital requirements, we will need to finance our future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. Other than our agreements with MLV and LPC, we do not currently have any commitments for future external funding.

Currently, there are warrants outstanding from our May 2011Offering and our 2012 Private Placement which have exercise prices of $9.92 and $2.66, respectively.  These warrants will expire, if unexercised, on May 17, 2016 and June 26, 2017, respectively.

While we continue to pursue cost saving initiatives to reduce operating expenses, we will also need to raise additional funds and periodically explore sources of equity or debt financing. We may seek to raise such capital through public or private equity financings, partnerships, joint ventures, debt financings, bank borrowings or other sources. However, additional funding may not be available on favorable terms or at all. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, substantial dilution to existing shareholders may result. If we fail to obtain additional capital when needed, we may be required to delay, scale back, or eliminate some or all of our research and development programs. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Going Concern Consideration

Our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm issued a report included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 that included an explanatory paragraph referring to our recurring and expected continuing future losses from operations and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. While we could sell an additional $9.1 million worth of common shares through the sales agreement with MLV or direct LPC to purchase up to $14 million worth of shares of common stock under our stock purchase agreement with LPC, there are certain factors, such as volume of trading in the stock, the stock price and the

-26-


ability to terminate the agreement with notice, which could limit the amount we could raise in a short period of time. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to generate revenue. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our exposure to market risk is limited to our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. We invest in high-quality financial instruments, as permitted by the terms of our investment policy guidelines. Currently, our excess funds are invested in a premium commercial money market fund with one major financial institution. We do not hedge interest rate exposure. A portion of our investments may be subject to interest rate risk and could fall in value if interest rates were to increase. The effective duration of our portfolio is currently less than one year, which we believe limits interest rate and credit risk.

Because most of our transactions are denominated in United States dollars, we do not have any material exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures


Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.


Changes in internal controls

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
