1.
Operations and Organization
 
Operations
 
Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”, “Rexahn Pharmaceuticals”), a Delaware corporation, is a development stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery, development and commercialization of innovative treatments for cancer, central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders, sexual dysfunction and other medical needs.  The Company had an accumulated deficit of $57,473,894 at September 30, 2011 and anticipates incurring losses through the remainder of fiscal 2011 and beyond.  The Company has not yet generated commercial sales revenue and has been able to fund its operating losses to date through the sale of its common stock, warrants exercisable for common stock, units, issuance of long-term debt, and proceeds from reimbursed research and development costs.  Management has the capability of managing the Company’s operations within existing cash available by focusing on core research and development activities.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 have been included.  Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2011. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2010 (“2010 Form 10-K/A”).  Information included in the condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in the 2010 Form 10-K/A.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future.  Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.  These estimates are reviewed periodically and as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they become available.
 
Reclassification
 
The Company has reclassified previously reported amortization of Rexgene’s research and development arrangement, as disclosed in Note 9, “Deferred Research and Development Arrangement”, from revenue to a reduction of research and development expenses in the statement of operations.  The reclassification had no effect on the Company’s balance sheets, net loss, or cash flows from operating activities.

2. 
Prior Period Adjustment
 
The financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 have been restated as a result of management’s determination that the Company had misclassified warrants issued to investors through offerings occurring in December 2007, March 2008, June 2009, October 2009 and June 2010.  The warrants were previously reported as equity, but further review by management concluded that these warrants should have been classified as liabilities at inception due to provisions within the warrant agreements, and should be reported at fair value at the balance sheet date.

Management also determined that the anti-dilution make whole provision (the “Anti-dilution provision”) which is a put on the common stock, issued in the 2007 and 2008 offerings were also misclassified as equity.  In the event that the Company issued shares or share indexed contracts below an effective purchase price paid by the investors, the investor would receive additional shares equal to a ratio of the initial purchase price per share less the original number of common shares issued.  The Anti-dilution provision expired on the second anniversary of the financing and should have been reported as a liability at fair value at inception.

The restatement had no effect on the Company’s cash, loss from operations or net cash used in operating activities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.  After reviewing the circumstances leading up to the restatement, management believes that the errors were inadvertent and unintentional.  In addition, following the discovery of these errors, the Company began implementing procedures intending to strengthen its internal control processes and prevent a recurrence of these errors.

The effects of the restatement on the Company’s statement of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 are as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Affecting the Company

    Fair Value Measurements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update  2011-04 to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) which amends the disclosure requirements for fair value instruments.  The new disclosures required include disclosure regarding the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs, and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs.  The guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011.

    Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for presentation and disclosure of comprehensive income in the financial statements.  Under the new guidance, a Company may no longer present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in the Statement of Stockholder’s Equity, and instead must present the components of comprehensive income either in the Statement of Operations or in a separate statement immediately following the Statement of Operations.  In addition, reclassification adjustments between comprehensive income and net income must be disclosed on the financial statements.  This guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011.

Deferred Research and Development Arrangement
 
In 2003, the Company entered into a collaborative research agreement with Rexgene Biotech Co., Ltd. (“Rexgene”), a shareholder.  Rexgene is engaged in the development of pharmaceutical products in Asia and has agreed to assist the Company with the research, development and clinical trials necessary for registration of the Company’s drug candidate, Archexin, in Asia.  This agreement provides Rexgene with exclusive rights to license, sublicense, make, have made, use, sell and import Archexin in Asia.  In accordance with the agreement, Rexgene paid the Company a one-time fee of $1,500,000 in 2003.  The agreement terminates at the later of 20 years or the term of the patent.  The amortization reduces research and development expenses for the periods presented.
 
The Company is using 20 years as its basis for recognition and accordingly $18,750 and $56,250 reduced research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The remaining $843,750 and $900,000 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, is reflected as deferred research and development arrangement on the balance sheet.  The contribution is being used in the cooperative funding of the costs of development of Archexin. Royalties of 3% of net sales of licensed products will become payable to the Company on a quarterly basis once commercial sales of Archexin begin in Asia.  The product is still under development and commercial sales in Asia are not expected to begin until at least 2013.  Under the terms of the agreement, Rexgene does not receive royalties on Company net sales outside of Asia.

Deferred Lease Incentive

On June 29, 2009, the Company entered into a five year office lease agreement as disclosed in Note 18.  The lessor agreed to grant a leasehold improvement allowance of $100,000 to the Company to be used for the construction cost of improvements to the leased property, which included architectural and engineering fees, government agency plan check, permit and other fees, sales and use taxes, testing and inspection costs, and telephone and data cabling and wiring in the premises.  The Company accounts for the benefit of the leasehold improvement allowance as a reduction of rental expense over the five-year term of the office lease.

Deferred Office Lease Expense
 
The office lease agreement, disclosed above, requires an initial annual base rent with annual increases over the next five years.  The Company recognizes rental expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which resulted in a deferred rent liability of $58,640 and $63,117 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

11.
Comprehensive Loss

The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss as of December 31, 2010 was $2,340 which is computed as the difference between the cost and fair value of the Company’s marketable securities as of the balance sheet date. The Company did not have an accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2011.  The total comprehensive (loss) income for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was ($1,469,218) and $218,891 respectively, and the total comprehensive loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was $11,731,891 and $11,411,775, respectively.

12.
Net Loss per Common Share
 
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and excluding any potential dilution.  Diluted loss per common share is also computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, but also reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from the issuance of common stock that would then share in earnings, and such calculation excludes common shares in treasury.   Basic and diluted loss per common share are identical for all periods presented, with the exception of the three months ended September 30, 2010 as potentially dilutive securities of the Company have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted net loss per common share because the inclusion of such securities would be anti-dilutive.  The Company did not disclose earnings per share and the diluted shares outstanding for three months ended September 30, 2010 since the impact is immaterial and the Company had a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there were stock options and warrants to acquire 16,857,937 and 13,701,378 shares of our common stock, respectively, which were the potentially dilutive securities of the Company.

Stock-Based Compensation
 
On August 5, 2003, the Company established a stock option plan (the “Plan”).  Under the Plan, the Company grants stock options to key employees, directors and consultants of the Company.  For all grants prior to September 12, 2005 and grants to employees of the Company after September 12, 2005, the vesting period is 30% on the first anniversary of the grant date, an additional 30% on the second anniversary and the remaining 40% on the third anniversary.  Options expire between five and ten years from the date of grant.
 
For grants to non-employee consultants of the Company after September 12, 2005, the vesting period is between one to three years, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions in the individual stock option grant agreements, or 100% upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the individual stock option grant agreements.  Options authorized for issuance under the Plan total 17,000,000 after giving effect to an amendment to the Plan approved at the Annual Meeting of the Stockholders of the Company on June 2, 2006.  At September 30, 2011, 8,218,000 shares of common stock were available for issuance.
 
Prior to adoption of the Plan, the Company made restricted stock grants.  During 2003 all existing restricted stock grants were converted to stock options.  The converted options maintained the same full vesting period as the original restricted stock grants.
 
Accounting for Employee Awards
 
The Company’s results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 include share-based employee compensation expense totaling $161,876 and $115,907 respectively.  The Company’s results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 include share-based compensation expense totaling $466,739 and $338,899 respectively.  Such amounts have been included in the statement of operations in general and administrative and research and development expenses.  No income tax benefit has been recognized in the statement of operations for share-based compensation arrangements as the Company has provided for a 100% valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.
 
Employee stock option compensation expense is the estimated fair value of options granted amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting service period for the entire portion of the award.
 
Accounting for Non-Employee Awards
 
Stock compensation expenses related to non-employee options were ($20,787) and ($4,305) for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Stock compensation expenses related to non-employee options were $46,515 and $96,406, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Such amounts have been included in the statement of operations in general and administrative and research and development expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation (cont’d)
 
The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The Company took into consideration guidance under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” and Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 107 when reviewing and updating assumptions.  The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s stock.  The expected term is based upon the simplified method as allowed under SAB 107.

The assumptions made in calculating the fair values of options are as follows:

At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the average remaining contractual life of the outstanding warrants was 3.4 years.

The warrants, which were issued to investors in the December 2007, March 2008, May 2009, October 2009, June 2010, and March 2011 offerings, contain a provision for net cash settlement in the event that there is a fundamental transaction (contractually defined as a merger, sale of substantially all assets, tender offer, or share exchange).   If a fundamental transaction occurs in which the consideration issued consists principally of cash or stock in a non-public company, then the warrant holder has the option to receive cash, equal to the fair value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrant.  Due to this contingent redemption provision, the warrants require liability classification in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” (“ASC 480”) and are recorded at fair value.  In addition, the warrants issued in the May 2009, October 2009, June 2010 and March, 2011 offerings contain a cashless exercise provision that is exercisable only in the event that a registration statement is not effective, which provision may not be operative if an effective registration statement is not available because of an exemption under the U.S. Securities laws may not be available to issue unregistered shares.  As a result, net cash settlement may be required.

ASC 820 provides requirements for disclosure of liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to the initial recognition.  Fair values for warrants are determined using the Binomial Lattice (“Lattice”) valuation technique. The Lattice model provides for dynamic assumptions regarding volatility and risk-free interest rates within the total period to maturity. Accordingly, within the contractual term, the Company provided multiple date intervals over which multiple volatilities and risk free interest rates were used. These intervals allow the Lattice model to project outcomes along specific paths which consider volatilities and risk free rates that would be more likely in an early exercise scenario.

Significant assumptions are determined as follows:
Trading market values—published trading market values;
Exercise price—Stated exercise price;
Term—remaining contractual term of the warrant;
Volatility—Historical trading volatility for periods consistent with the remaining terms;
Risk-free rate—Yields on zero coupon government securities with remaining terms consistent with the remaining terms of the warrants.

Warrants (cont’d)

Due to the fundamental transaction provision, which could provide for early redemption of the warrants, the model also considered the probability the Company would enter into a fundamental transaction during the remaining term of the warrant. Since the Company is still in its development stage and is not yet achieving positive cash flow, management believes the probability of a fundamental transaction occurring over the term of the warrant is approximately 5%.  For valuation purposes, the Company also assumed that if such a transaction did occur, it was more likely to occur towards the end of the term of the warrants.

The warrants issued in December 2007 and March 2008 are not only subject to traditional anti-dilution protection, such as stock splits and dividends, but they are also subject to down-round anti-dilution protection. Accordingly, if the Company sells common stock or common stock indexed financial instruments below the stated exercise price, the exercise price related to these warrants will adjust to that lower amount.  The Lattice model used to value the warrants with down-round anti-dilution protection provides for multiple, probability-weighted scenarios at the stated exercise price and at five additional decrements/scenarios on each valuation date in order to encompass the value of the anti-dilution provisions in the estimate of fair value of the warrants. Calculations were performed at the stated exercise price and at five additional decrements/scenarios on each valuation date. The calculations provide for multiple, probability-weighted scenarios reflecting decrements that result from declines in the market prices. Decrements are predicated on the trading market prices in decreasing ranges below the contractual exercise price. For each valuation date, multiple Binomial Lattice calculations were performed which were probability weighted by considering both the Company’s (i) historical market pricing trends, and (ii) an outlook for whether or not the Company may need to issue equity or equity-indexed instruments in the future with a price less than the current exercise price.
