1.

Nature of Business

 

Anika Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) is a global joint preservation company that creates and delivers meaningful advancements in early intervention orthopedic care, including in the areas of osteoarthritis (“OA”) pain management, regenerative solutions, sports medicine and Arthrosurface joint solutions. The Company has over 30 years of expertise in hyaluronic acid (“HA”) technology.

 

In early 2020, the Company expanded its overall technology platform through its acquisitions of Parcus Medical, LLC (“Parcus Medical”), a sports medicine implant and instrumentation company, and Arthrosurface Incorporated (“Arthrosurface”), a company specializing in less invasive, bone preserving partial and total joint replacement solutions.

 

On October 31, 2024, the Company sold its equity interests in Arthrosurface (Note 15) and the Company announced its intention to divest of the Parcus Medical business. These decisions were a result of a strategic review to focus on the Company’s core HA technology and regenerative solutions products to maximize shareholder value.

 

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the life sciences industry including, but not limited to, development by the Company or its competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, commercialization of existing and new products, and compliance with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and foreign regulations and approval requirements, as well as the ability to grow the Company’s business through appropriate commercial strategies.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The financial statements include the accounts of Anika Therapeutics, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements. The December 31, 2023 balances reported herein were derived from the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements filed with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 are not indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

 

Segment Information

 

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker as of September 30, 2024 was its President and Chief Executive Officer. Based on the criteria established by Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, the Company has one operating and reportable segment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the new guidance will enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows for the entity. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. Under the new guidance, entities must consistently categorize and provide greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and must also disaggregate income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company estimates an allowance for credit losses with its accounts receivable resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. In determining the adequacy of the allowance, management specifically analyzes individual accounts receivable, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, accounts receivable aging trends, and changes in the Company’s customer payment terms.

 

The components of the Company’s accounts receivable are as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company has certain cash equivalents in money market funds that are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets. For cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable, and accrued interest, the carrying amounts approximate fair value, because of the short maturity of these instruments, and therefore fair value information is not included in the table below. There were no transfers between fair value levels during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

As described in more detail in Note 15, the Company sold its Arthrosurface business on October 31, 2024. As a result of this transaction, the Company adjusted the carrying value of the inventories related to the Arthrosurface business to the net realizable value. Accordingly, the company recorded a write-down of inventories of $22.7 million which was charged to Cost of Goods Sold during the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024.

Commitments and Contingencies

 

In certain of its contracts, the Company warrants to its customers that the products it manufactures conform to the product specifications as in effect at the time of delivery of the specific product. The Company may also warrant that the products it manufactures do not infringe, violate, or breach any U.S. or international patent or intellectual property right, trade secret, or other proprietary information of any third party. On occasion, the Company contractually indemnifies its customers against any and all losses arising out of, or in any way connected with, any claim or claims of breach of its warranties or any actual or alleged defect in any product caused by the negligent acts or omissions of the Company. The Company maintains a products liability insurance policy that limits its exposure to these risks. Based on the Company’s historical activity, in combination with its liability insurance coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements are immaterial. The Company had no accrued warranties as of September 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023 and has no history of claims paid.

 

The Company is also involved from time-to-time in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. Although the outcomes of these legal proceedings are inherently difficult to predict, the Company does not expect the resolution of these occasional legal proceedings to have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

Equity Incentive Plan

 

Equity Incentive Plan

 

The Anika Therapeutics, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 13, 2017 and subsequently amended on June 18, 2019, June 16, 2020, June 16, 2021, June 8, 2022 and June 14, 2023. On June 14, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2017 Plan increasing the number of shares by 435,000 shares from 4,850,000 shares to 5,285,000 shares. The 2017 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock awards, performance restricted stock units (“PSUs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), total shareholder return options (“TSRs”) and performance options that may be settled in cash, stock, or other property. In accordance with the 2017 Plan approved by the Company’s stockholders, including the amendments thereto, each share award other than stock options or SARs will reduce the number of total shares available for grant by two shares. Subject to adjustment for specified types of changes in the Company’s capitalization, no more than 4.6 million shares of common stock may be issued under the 2017 Plan. There were 0.7 million shares available for future grant at September 30, 2024 under the 2017 Plan.

 

The Anika Therapeutics, Inc. 2021 Inducement Plan (the “Inducement Plan”) was adopted by the Company’s board of directors on November 4, 2021 and subsequently amended on December 22, 2023 and May 2, 2024. On May 2, 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved an amendment to the Inducement Plan increasing the number of shares by 100,000 shares. The Inducement Plan reserves 350,000 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to equity-based awards granted under the Inducement Plan. Such awards may be granted only to an individual who was not previously the Company’s employee or director with the Company. The Inducement Plan provides for the grant of awards under terms substantially similar to the 2017 Plan (as amended). There were 0.1 million shares available for future grant at September 30, 2024 under the Inducement Plan.

 

The Company may satisfy the awards upon exercise, or upon fulfillment of the vesting requirements for other equity-based awards, with either newly issued shares or shares reacquired by the Company. Stock-based awards are granted with an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. Awards contain service conditions or service and performance conditions, and they generally become exercisable ratably over three years with a maximum contractual term of ten years.

 

The Company presents the expenses related to stock-based compensation awards in the same expense line items as cash compensation paid to each of its employees as follows:

Stock Options

 

Stock options are granted to purchase common shares at prices that are equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date the options are granted or, in the case of premium options, are granted with an exercise price at 110% of the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Options generally vest in equal annual installments over a period of three years and expire 10 years after the date of grant. The grant-date fair value of options is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.

    2,223,265     $ 31.92       7.5     $ 248  

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of options granted. The calculation of the fair value of stock options is affected by the stock price on the grant date, the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock over the expected term of the award, the expected life of the award, the risk-free interest rate and the dividend yield.

 

The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model for options granted during the nine months September 30, 2024 and 2023, along with the weighted-average grant-date fair values, were as follows:

As of September 30, 2024, there was $7.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

 

Restricted Stock Units

 

RSUs generally vest in equal annual installments over a three-year period. The grant-date fair value of RSUs is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The Company determines the fair value of RSUs based on the closing price of its common stock on the date of grant.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of RSUs granted was $26.62 and $26.66 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The total fair value of RSUs vested was $9.6 million and $6.8 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, there was $7.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to time-based RSUs that are expected to settle in shares, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 years.

 

The Company’s annual grant of RSU awards in March 2024 can be settled at vesting in cash or shares at the Company’s election. The Company has recorded these RSUs as a liability due to the expectation that the Company will settle the vesting of the March 2024 RSU awards in cash due to a potential shortage of shares in the 2017 Plan at the time of vesting. As a result, these RSUs will be subject to change in value at the time of each reporting period. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 381,029 shares outstanding in which a liability of $1.6 million was recorded in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities. There was $7.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost for these RSUs recorded as a liability which was expected to vest over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years.

 

 

12.

Income Taxes

 

The income tax expense was $2.3 million and $3.2 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, resulting in effective tax rates of (8.4%) and (10.2%), respectively. The income tax benefit was $0.5 million and $2.5 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, resulting in an effective tax rate of 6.6% and 11.1%, respectively.

 

The net change in the effective tax rate for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same periods in 2023, was primarily due to the impact of the valuation allowance in the US in both the current and prior periods and the impact of recording of $1.5 million of discrete items during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024.  The Company’s effective tax rate for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by the full valuation on the Company's deferred tax assets in the US and the projected taxable income for the Company resulting in expected current tax expense in 2024.

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, carryback potential if permitted under the tax law, and results of recent operations. The Company has incurred operating losses in recent years. As a result, the Company anticipates that deferred tax assets originating during the year ended December 31, 2024 will exceed the availability of reversing taxable temporary differences. Due to significant negative evidence, including the Company’s prior year operating losses, the Company concluded its anticipated net deferred tax assets in the U.S. are not more likely than not to be realizable. Accordingly, the estimated annual effective tax rate used to compute the income tax provision for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 includes an adjustment for the valuation allowance required against the U.S. deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2024, the Company continues to believe its foreign deferred tax assets are realizable based upon future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and projected future taxable income.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the United States on a federal basis, in certain U.S. states, and in certain foreign jurisdictions. The associated tax filings remain subject to examination by applicable tax authorities for a certain length of time following the tax year to which those filings relate, which varies by jurisdiction. In September 2024, the Company was notified by the Italian tax authorities that it had selected the Company’s tax returns for its Italian subsidiary for 2021 for examination and remains under review.

 

 

13.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

 

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Unvested restricted shares, although legally issued and outstanding, are not considered outstanding for purposes of calculating basic EPS. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding share-based awards using the treasury stock method. Due to the Company’s loss position, the share-based payment awards are anti-dilutive.

 

The Company had a net loss during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and therefore all potential common shares would have been anti-dilutive and accordingly were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Stock options of 2.2 million shares and 1.8 million shares were outstanding at September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Restricted stock units totaling 0.9 million and 0.8 million were outstanding at September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These securities were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the awards’ impact on EPS would have been anti-dilutive.

 

 

14.

Share Repurchase

 

In May 2024, the Company agreed to implement a share repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $40.0 million to occur as follows: (i) first $15.0 million was effected through a Rule 10b5-1 Plan initiated prior to June 1, 2024 and to be effective through June 30, 2025, and (ii) the remaining amount to be purchased in the open market through June 2026.  In the event of positive “free cash flow” as defined in the Cooperation Agreement dated May 28, 2024, with Caligan Partners LP, Caligan Partners Master Fund LP and David Johnson, for the period from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025, the amount under the share repurchase program shall be increased by 50% of such positive amount and in no event would we be required to make any purchases in the event that the Company’s cash would be less than $45.0 million after taking into account the share repurchase and reasonably anticipated capital expenditures and restructuring costs. This new authorization replaces our share repurchase program previously announced in April 2023.

 

16

 

On May 28, 2024, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement under a Rule 10b5-1 with Bank of America. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had repurchased 205,404 shares at an average cost of $25.99 per share for a total cost of $5.3 million.

 

 

15.

Subsequent Event

 

On October 31, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed the sale of all of the outstanding equity interests (the “Transaction”) of Arthrosurface Incorporated, a Delaware corporation and former wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Arthrosurface”), which held the Company’s Arthrosurface business, to Phoenix Brio, Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Arthrosurface and Buyer (the “Transaction”).

 

As consideration for the Transaction, at the closing Buyer delivered to the Company a ten-year non-interest bearing promissory note in the principal amount of $7.0 million. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company is also eligible to receive: (i) for each calendar quarter, an amount equal to a percentage of the net sales (the “Revenue Payments”) for the sale of certain commercial and pipeline products during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date or the date on which the Buy-Out Payment (as defined below) is paid to the Company; and (ii) a percentage of the gross proceeds with respect to the sale of certain commercial and pipeline products in a bona-fide arm’s length transaction with a third party that is not an affiliate of Buyer or the Company occurring within the first twenty four (24) months following the Closing Date. The Buyer can also elect to make a payment in an amount equal to the greater of (A) $14.0 million or (B) ten (10) times the Revenue Payments ((A) and (B) together, the “Buy-Out Payment”) paid to the Company during the last full calendar year prior to the consummation of a change of control transaction or Buyer’s written notice to the Company that it is electing to make the Buy-Out Payment. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the aggregate consideration is subject to customary post-closing adjustments.

 

As a result of the Transaction, the Company tested the assets associated with the Arthrosurface business to determine if the carrying value of the assets at September 30, 2024 were fully recoverable. Given that the expected proceeds from the sale of the Arthrosurface business is expected to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, the Company recorded asset impairment charges totaling $27.4 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 related to a write-down of its accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment and intangible assets related to the Arthrosurface business.
