VOLITIONRX LIMITED

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

($ expressed in United States Dollars)

 

Note 1 – Nature of Operations

 

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 24, 1998. On September 22, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate for Renewal and Revival of Charter with the Secretary of State of Delaware. Pursuant to Section 312(1) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company was revived under the new name of “VolitionRX Limited”. The name change to VolitionRX Limited was approved by FINRA on October 7, 2011 and became effective on October 11, 2011. On October 7, 2016, the Company filed a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware that reflects the name “VolitionRx Limited”.

 

On October 6, 2011, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Singapore Volition Pte. Limited, a Singapore corporation incorporated on August 5, 2010 (“Singapore Volition”), and the shareholders of Singapore Volition. Pursuant to the terms of the share exchange agreement, the former shareholders of Singapore Volition held 85% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company. The issuance was deemed to be a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes and as such, Singapore Volition is regarded as the predecessor of the Company. The number of shares outstanding and per share amounts of the Company have been restated to recognize the foregoing recapitalization.

 

The Company’s principal business objective through its subsidiaries is to develop and bring to market simple, easy to use, cost effective blood tests designed to help diagnose a range of cancers and other diseases. The tests are based on the science of Nucleosomics, which is the practice of identifying and measuring nucleosomes in the bloodstream or other bodily fluid – since changes in these parameters are an indication that disease is present. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary, Singapore Volition. Singapore Volition has one wholly-owned subsidiary, Belgian Volition SPRL, a Belgium private limited liability company formerly known as ValiBioSA (“Belgian Volition”), which it acquired as of September 22, 2010. Belgian Volition has three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Volition Diagnostics UK Limited (“Volition Diagnostics”), which was formed as of November 13, 2015, Volition America, Inc. (“Volition America”), which was formed as of February 3, 2017, and Volition Veterinary Diagnostics Development LLC (“Volition Vet”), which was formed as of June 3, 2019. Following the acquisition of Singapore Volition in 2011, the Company’s fiscal year end was changed from August 31 to December 31.

 

Note 2 - Going Concern

 

The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $82.1 million, has negative cash flows from operations, and currently has no revenues, which creates substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The future of the Company as an operating business will depend on its ability to obtain sufficient capital contributions, financing and/or generate revenues as may be required to sustain its operations. Management plans to address the above as needed by (a) securing additional grant funds, (b) obtaining additional financing through debt or equity transactions, (c) granting licenses to third parties in exchange for specified up-front and/or back-end payments and (d) developing and commercializing its products on an accelerated timeline. Management continues to exercise tight cost controls to conserve cash.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

 

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2019, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.

VOLITIONRX LIMITED

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

($ expressed in United States Dollars)

 

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2019. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are expressed in United States Dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company also regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, impairment of long-lived assets and stock-based compensation.

 

The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2019 include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Singapore Volition, Belgian Volition, Volition Diagnostics, Volition America and Volition Vet. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Leases

 

In February of 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 - Leases (Topic 842), which significantly amends the way companies are required to account for leases. Under the updated leasing guidance, some leases that did not have to be reported previously are now required to be presented as an asset and liability on the balance sheet. In addition, for certain leases, what was previously classified as an operating expense must now be allocated between amortization expense and interest expense. The Company adopted this update as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method and prior periods have not been restated. Upon implementation, the Company recognized an initial operating lease right-of-use asset of $110,630 and operating lease liability of $110,630. Due to the simplistic nature of the Company's leases, no retained earnings adjustment was required. See Note 9(b) for further details.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, “Earnings Per Share,” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. As of June 30, 2019, 6,023,221 potential common shares equivalents from warrants and options were excluded from the diluted EPS calculations as their effect is anti-dilutive.

b) Operating Lease Right-of-Use Obligations

 

The Company adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019. The Company elected to adopt this standard using the optional modified retrospective transition method and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet on the date of adoption. Comparative periods have not been restated. With the adoption of Topic 842, the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet now contains the following line items: Operating lease right-of-use assets, Current portion of operating lease liabilities and Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion.

 

As all the existing leases subject to the new lease standard were previously classified as operating leases by the Company, they were similarly classified as operating leases under the new standard. The Company has determined that the identified operating leases did not contain non-lease components and require no further allocation of the total lease cost. Additionally, the agreements in place did not contain information to determine the rate implicit in the leases, so we used our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. Our weighted average discount rate is 4.45% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 24 months.

 

As of June 30, 2019, operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities arising from operating leases were $179,158 and $180,146, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, cash paid for amounts included for the measurement of lease liabilities was $25,171 and the Company recorded operating lease expense of $28,306.

Company Overview

 

VolitionRx Limited is a multi-national life sciences company developing simple, easy to use, cost effective blood tests designed to help diagnose a range of cancers and other diseases. We hope that through earlier diagnosis we can help save and improve the quality of many people’s lives throughout the world.

 

Our tests are based mainly on the science of NucleosomicsTM, which is the practice of identifying and measuring nucleosomes in the bloodstream or other bodily fluid – since changes in these parameters are an indication that disease is present. We are developing a novel suite of blood assays for epigenetically-altered circulating nucleosomes as biomarkers in cancer and other diseases. Nu.QTM products are simple, low-cost, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, or ELISA, platform tests and can incorporate other biomarkers such as anti-inflammatory markers and/or off patent, low cost ELISA tests in our panels (e.g. CEA, PSA, and CA125) for higher accuracy.

 

Our diagnostic target in the blood includes the same tumor chromosome fragment as targeted by ctDNA tests, but our approach is to test for chromosome protein and nucleic acid changes in intact chromosome fragments by ELISA, rather than chemically extracting, amplifying, and sequencing the circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA, and discarding the rest of the nucleosome. ELISA is possible because the targets of our tests occur globally across all nucleosomes within a tumor cell, whereas individual ctDNA changes must be identified within the three billion base-pair genomes. This means that the targets of our tests are exponentially more prevalent in circulating blood, and detectable using simple laboratory methods.

 

We are developing blood-based tests for the most prevalent cancers focusing on colorectal cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and pancreatic cancer, using our Nucleosomics biomarker discovery platform. Our development pipeline includes assays to be used for symptomatic patients, asymptomatic (screening) patients and high-risk populations. The platform employs a range of simple Nu.Q immunoassays on industry standard ELISA formats, which allows rapid quantification of epigenetic changes in biofluids (whole blood, plasma, serum, sputum, urine, etc.) compared to other approaches such as bisulfite conversion and polymerase chain reaction. We are researching the use of our assays across multiple platforms worldwide.

 

We believe that given the global prevalence of cancer and the low cost, accessible routine nature of our tests, Nu.Q will eventually be used throughout the world. Our launch sequence is determined to a large extent by regulatory hurdles - consequently, we aim to launch in Europe and Asia, and subsequently in the United States. We plan to work with partners and/or distributors to commercialize Nu.Q worldwide. Additionally, we are working on complete Nucleosome analysis (Nu.Q Capture). The goal of this project is to investigate ways to specifically target for ctDNA. The ability of enriching for ctDNA will allow us to use mass spectrometry to analyze histone and DNA modifications and moreover to sequence the DNA present around the nucleosomes. This extremely valuable information might enable cancer diagnosis to identify the tissue of origin of that given cancer.

 

In addition to human diagnostics we are also researching the use of the Nu.Q technology in veterinary applications. An initial proof of concept study demonstrated that nucleosomes can be detected in dogs and, therefore, the potential to differentiate cancer from other diseases. We will now test Nu.Q Vet in larger trials in veterinary medicine. Our extensive intellectual property portfolio includes coverage of veterinary medicine applications.

 

The U.S. is currently the largest veterinary market in the world and has a clearly defined regulatory pathway via the USDA, requiring fewer and smaller clinical studies than the FDA process for human diagnostics. This generally allows a much faster route to revenue for veterinary products as compared to human products.

.

Overview of Plan of Operations

 

We have identified the specific processes and resources required to achieve the near and medium-term objectives of our business plan, including personnel, facilities, equipment, research and testing materials including antibodies and clinical samples, and the protection of intellectual property. To date, operations have proceeded satisfactorily in relation to our business plan. However, it is possible that some resources will not readily become available in a suitable form or on a timely basis or at an acceptable cost. It is also possible that the results of some processes may not be as expected, and that modifications of procedures and materials may be required. Such events could result in delays to the achievement of the near and medium-term objectives of our business plan, in particular the progression of clinical validation studies and regulatory approval processes for the purpose of bringing products to the IVD market.

 

Our future as an operating business will depend on our ability to obtain sufficient capital contributions, financing and/or generate revenues as may be required to sustain our operations. Management plans to address the above as needed by: (a) securing additional grant funds; (b) obtaining additional equity or debt financing; (c) granting licenses to third parties in exchange for specified up-front and/or back-end payments; and (d) developing and commercializing our products on an accelerated timeline. Management continues to exercise tight cost controls to conserve cash.


20



Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our accomplishment of the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to attain profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have financed our operations since inception primarily through private placements and public offerings of our common stock. As of June 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $18.5 million.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $6.4 million and $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was primarily due to decreased expenditures on research and development and general and administrative activities.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The increase was primarily due to investment in software and laboratory equipment.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.8 million and $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The increase in cash provided by financing activities for the period ended June 30, 2019 when compared to same period in 2018 was primarily due to $11.7 million in cash received from the exercise of warrants in 2019 compared to $7.8 million in net cash proceeds through the sale and issuance of 3.5 million shares of common stock in 2018.

 

The following table summarizes our approximate contractual payments due by year as of June 30, 2019:

We intend to use our cash reserves to predominantly fund further research and development activities. We do not currently have any substantial source of revenues and expect to rely on additional future financing, through the sale of equity or debt securities, or the sale of licensing rights, to provide sufficient funding to execute our strategic plan. There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising further funds.

 

In the event that additional financing is delayed, we will prioritize the maintenance of our research and development personnel and facilities, primarily in Belgium, and the maintenance of our patent rights. In such instance, the completion of clinical validation studies and regulatory approval processes for the purpose of bringing products to the IVD market would be delayed. In the event of an ongoing lack of financing, it may be necessary to discontinue operations, which will adversely affect the value of our common stock.

 

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 an explanatory paragraph regarding factors that raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

Other Expenses

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s total other expenses increased to $260,173 from $49,538 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was primarily due the exercise of warrants to purchase approximately 1.7 million shares of our common stock by Cotterford Company Limited at an amended price of $2.90 which resulted in a $196,957 expense.

 

Net Loss

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s net loss was $8.4 million, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million, or 10%, in comparison to a net loss of $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The change was a result of the factors described above.

Going Concern

 

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining external financing to continue to pursue our operational and strategic plans. For these reasons, management has determined that there is substantial doubt that the business will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

 

Future Financings

 

We may seek to obtain additional capital through the sale of debt or equity securities, if we deem it desirable or necessary. However, we may be unable to obtain such additional capital when needed, or on terms favorable to us or our stockholders, if at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, or such equity securities may provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, the terms of such securities may place restrictions on our ability to operate our business.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all applicable new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. The Company does not believe that there are any other applicable new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK 

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed 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 our company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


26



Our management carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded, as they previously concluded as of December 31, 2018, that our disclosure controls and procedures continue to not be effective as of June 30, 2019, because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as described below and in detail in our Annual Report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors meets regularly with our financial management, and with the independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us. Internal accounting controls and the quality of financial reporting are discussed during these meetings. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm matters required to be discussed by the auditing standards adopted or established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). In addition, the Audit Committee and the independent registered public accounting firm have discussed the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence from the Company and its management, including the matters in the written disclosures required by PCAOB Rule 3526 “Communicating with Audit Committees Concerning Independence.”

 

As of June 30, 2019, we did not maintain sufficient internal controls over financial reporting due to insufficient:

 

segregation of duties in some areas of Finance; 

oversight in the area of IT, where certain processes may affect the internal controls over financial reporting; and  

monitoring of review controls with respect to accounting for complex transactions. 

 

We have developed, and are currently implementing, a remediation plan for these material weaknesses. Specifically, we have identified and selected a system for financial reporting that will allow further automation of the reporting process, thereby strengthening the control environment over financial reporting.

 

As we continue to evaluate and work to enhance our internal controls over financial reporting, we may determine that additional measures should be taken to address these or other control deficiencies, and/or that we should modify our remediation plan.

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2019, other than those described above, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls

 

Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.

 

The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving our stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
