NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1995.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is based upon the Company's aggregate net loss
divided by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
during the respective periods. All options and warrants were antidilutive and,
accordingly, excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares.
2. Principles of Consolidation
At the end of 1994, the Company established a wholly-owned operating
subsidiary in Sweden, OXiGENE (Europe) AB. This subsidiary manages and controls
the Company's research and development work, and monitors the European clinical
trials. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and OXiGENE Europe AB, effective January 1, 1995.
Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
3. Stockholder's Equity
During the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, the Company issued
397,982 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of previously granted warrants.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Description of Business
OXiGENE is a development stage pharmaceutical company engaged
primarily in developing products designed to enhance traditional treatments for
cancer, aging, and autoimmune diseases. Currently under development are (1)
therapeutics that inhibit the ability of cancer cells to repair their DNA
structure after damage produced by radiation or chemotherapy; (2)
chemopreventive agents that stimulate DNA repair to strengthen the body's
immune system; and (3) diagnostics that measure DNA activity to determine
immune function and status. Since its inception in February, 1988, the Company
has devoted substantially all of its efforts and resources to research and
development conducted on its own behalf and through collaborations with
clinical institutions, primarily the University of Lund, Sweden. The Company
has generated a cumulative net loss of $14,811,000 for the period from its
inception through June 30, 1996. The Company expects to incur additional
operating losses in the year ending December 31, 1996, and for several years
thereafter, principally as a result of its continuing anticipated research and
development and clinical trials expenditures. The major source of the Company's
working capital has been the proceeds of private and public equity financings.
Most recently, in the summer of 1995, the Company completed a private placement
of approximately $10,000,000, before expenses. As of June 30, 1996, the Company
had no long-term debt or loans payable. Since its inception, the Company has
had no licensing or other fee income, and does not anticipate any such income
for the foreseeable future.
Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
During the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company
had no income, except for interest income of approximately $254,000 and $82,000
for those respective periods. The increase in interest income is attributable
primarily to the increase in cash and cash equivalents as a result of the
completion of a $10 million (before expenses) private placement in the summer
of 1995. The operating expenses for those periods were approximately $3,665,000
and $1,919,000, respectively. The research and development expenses for the
same periods were approximately $2,356,000 and $1,273,000, respectively, and
the general and administrative expenses were approximately $1,309,000 and
$646,000, respectively. The increase in reported research and development
expenses was attributable to a charge for financial reporting purposes of
approximately $1,007,000. This charge was recorded because the market value per
share of Common Stock on June 30, 1996 ($25.50) exceeded the exercise price of
stock appreciation rights previously granted by the Company to certain clinical
investigators and consultants. Without giving effect to such charge, research
and development expenses increased by approximately $76,000, compared to the
comparable 1995 period. Generally, the Company makes payments to its clinical
investigators if and when certain predetermined milestones in its clinical
trials are reached, rather than on a fixed quarterly or monthly basis. As a
result of the foregoing and the existence of outstanding stock appreciation
rights, research and development expenses have fluctuated, and are expected to
continue to fluctuate, from quarter to quarter. General and administrative
expenses increased primarily as a result of an increase in the Company's
activities, mostly in Sweden.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The company has experienced net losses and negative cash flow from
operations each year since its inception and, as of June 30, 1996, the Company
had a cumulative deficit of $14,811,000. To date, the Company has financed its
operations primarily through the proceeds of private and public equity
financings. The Company has attempted to contain costs and reduce cash outflow
by maintaining low overhead costs, using consultants as required and utilizing
facilities available at the University of Lund, Sweden, for research and
development.
At December 31, 1995, the Company had approximately $10,909,000 in
cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities available for sale. In the
first quarter of 1996, the Company disposed of its marketable securities. The
proceeds from this disposition were mostly used to finance operations during
the three months ended March 31, 1996. In the quarter ended June 30, 1996, an
aggregate of 240,100 options and warrants were exercised, with proceeds to the
Company of $1,427,285. A portion of these proceeds was used to finance
operations during the three months ended June 30, 1996. The Company had cash
and cash equivalents of approximately $10,710,000 at June 30, 1996, compared to
approximately $10,407,000 at March 31, 1996.
The Company expects to incur additional expenses which will
probably result in significant losses over the next several years as it
continues to expand its research and development activities and undertakes the
clinical trials required to bring its products to the marketplace.
The Company's policy is to maintain a relatively small number of
executives and to rely as much as possible on outside services for its clinical
research, clinical trials and administration. The Company maintains small
executive offices in New York and in Lund, Sweden, both of which are subleased.
Further, the Company contemplates subleasing new laboratory space in the New
York metropolitan area that will complement research activities with those at
the Lund facility. The Company contracts with Cato Research, Ltd., Durham,
North Carolina, for the coordination of the Company's clinical trials and
retention of its clinical files. The Company pays the University of Lund,
Sweden and other hospitals, where applicable, on a per patient basis for
conducting its clinical trials.
The Company's working capital and capital requirements may,
however, vary materially from those now planned due to numerous factors
including, but not limited to, the progress of the Company's research and
development programs, the results of preclinical testing and clinical trials,
the timing and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approvals, the level of
resources that the Company will devote to the development of its manufacturing,
marketing and sales capabilities, technological advances, the approval of
pending patent applications and the status of collaborative agreements with
other companies to provide funding and services to the Company to support or
defray some of or all of the costs associated with any of or all these
activities. The Company anticipates that its cash and cash equivalents will be
sufficient to complete the perquisite clinical trials prior to regulatory
approval for its current compounds, Sensamide(TM) and Neu-Sensamide(TM). A
collaborative agreement with a third party to complete development of these or
other products or bring products to market will be sought during 1996 and
thereafter. There can be no assurance that the Company's cash and cash
equivalents will be sufficient to attain clinical trials milestones or that a
third party collaboration can be realized or that additional financing, if
required, will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. The Company had no
material commitments for capital expenditures as of June 30, 1996.
<PAGE>
Tax Matters
As of December 31, 1995, the Company had, for Federal income tax
purposes, net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $10,672,000.
Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of 1986, annual utilization of the Company's net
operating loss carryforwards may be limited if a cumulative change in ownership
of the Company's stock of more than 50% (within the meaning of the Internal
Revenue Code) occurs within any three-year period. The Company has made no
determination concerning whether there has been such a cumulative change in
ownership and it is possible that such a change in ownership may be deemed to
have occurred following the Company's initial public offering, which was
completed in October, 1993, and/or the private placement of 1,666,700 shares of
Common Stock, which was completed in July 1995.
