NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Description of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Description of Operations

 

Innoviva, Inc. (referred to as “Innoviva”, the “Company”, or “we” and other similar pronouns) is focused on royalty management. Innoviva’s portfolio includes the respiratory assets partnered with Glaxo Group Limited (“GSK”), including RELVAR®/BREO®ELLIPTA® (fluticasone furoate/ vilanterol, “FF/VI”), ANORO® ELLIPTA®(umeclidinium bromide/ vilanterol, “UMEC/VI”) and TRELEGY® ELLIPTA® (the combination FF/UMEC/VI). Under the Long-Acting Beta2 Agonist (“LABA”) Collaboration Agreement, Innoviva is eligible to receive the associated royalty revenues from RELVAR®/BREO® ELLIPTA® and ANORO® ELLIPTA®. Innoviva is also entitled to 15% of royalty payments made by GSK under its agreements originally entered into with us, and since assigned to our consolidated variable interest entity, Theravance Respiratory Company, LLC (“TRC”), relating to TRELEGY® ELLIPTA® and any other product or combination of products that may be discovered and developed in the future under the LABA Collaboration Agreement and the Strategic Alliance Agreement with GSK (referred to herein as the “GSK Agreements”), which have been assigned to TRC other than RELVAR®/BREO® ELLIPTA® and ANORO® ELLIPTA®.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 or any other period.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 23, 2018 (“2017 Form 10-K”).

 

Variable Interest Entity

 

We evaluate our ownership, contractual and other interest in entities to determine if they are variable interest entities (“VIE”), whether we have a variable interest in those entities and the nature and extent of those interests. Based on our evaluations, if we determine we are the primary beneficiary of such VIEs, we consolidate such entities into our financial statements. We consolidate the financial results of TRC, which we have determined to be a VIE, because we have the power to direct the economically significant activities of TRC and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, TRC.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which supersedes the lease recognition requirements in ASC Topic 840, Leases. The standard requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases in the consolidated balance sheets but recognize the impact on the consolidated statement of operations and cash flows in a similar manner under current GAAP. The standard also requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. The standard is effective for us at the beginning January 1, 2019 and requires transition under a modified retrospective method. The most significant impact of the update to us is that we will be required to recognize a “right-of-use” asset and lease liability for the operating lease agreement that was not previously included on the balance sheet under the existing lease guidance. We anticipate that the treatment of the lease on our consolidated statement of operations and cash flows will not materially be affected by the adoption of the new standard.

 

2. Net Income Per Share

 

Basic net income per share attributable to Innoviva stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to Innoviva stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net income per share attributable to Innoviva stockholders is computed by dividing net income attributable to Innoviva stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive potential common stock equivalents then outstanding. Dilutive potential common stock

equivalents include the assumed exercise, vesting and issuance of employee stock awards using the treasury stock method, as well as common stock issuable upon assumed conversion of our convertible subordinated notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) using the if-converted method.

 

Our convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) are convertible, based on the applicable conversion rate, into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof, at our election. Our current intent is to settle the principal amount of the 2025 Notes in cash upon conversion. The impact of the assumed conversion premium to diluted net income per share is computed using the treasury stock method. As the average market price per share of our common stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global Select Market during the relevant periods was lower than the initial conversion price of $17.26 per share, there was no dilutive effect of the assumed conversion premium for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

3. Revenue Recognition and Collaborative Arrangements

 

Revenue is recognized when our customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized through a five-step process: (i) identify the contract with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price for the contract; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied. We recognize the royalty revenue on licensee net sales of products with respect to which we have contractual royalty rights in the period in which the royalties are earned and reported to us. Royalties are recognized net of amortization of capitalized fees associated with any approval and launch milestone payments made to GSK.

The fair value of our marketable securities classified within Level 2 is based upon observable inputs that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data, including market research publications.

 

The fair value of our 2023 Notes and of our 2025 Notes is based on recent trading prices of the instruments. The carrying amount of our initial senior secured term loan (the “Term B Loan”) before deducting debt issuance costs approximates fair value as the loan carries a variable interest rate that is tied to the LIBOR rate plus an applicable spread.

5. Stock-Based Compensation

 

Market-Based RSAs and RSUs

 

2016 Market-Based RSAs and RSUs

 

On January 14, 2016, the Compensation Committee approved and granted 282,394 RSAs and 46,294 RSUs to senior management. These awards include a market condition based on Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) and a service condition that requires continued employment, collectively the “Performance Measures I”. The vesting percentages of these awards are calculated based on the two-year TSR with a catch-up provision opportunity measured on January 13, 2019 for RSAs and on September 30, 2018 for RSUs. Two-thirds of amounts earned at the end of year two would vest and be distributed on February 20, 2018, while the final one-third earned after two years as well as the catch-up amount earned will vest and be distributed on February 20, 2019 for RSAs and November 20, 2018 for RSUs. The actual payout of shares may range from a minimum of zero shares to a maximum of 328,688 shares granted upon the actual performance against the Performance Measures I. The grant date fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The aggregate value of $2.0 million is recognized as compensation expense over the implied service period and will not be reversed if the market condition is not met, but with the exception of such person’s continued employment with the Company.

 

In February 2018, the Compensation Committee certified the maximum achievement of the TSR as of the first measurement date, January 12, 2018. 69,440 RSAs and 30,862 RSUs representing two-thirds of the amounts were released on February 20, 2018, and the remaining 34,720 RSAs and 15,432 RSUs will vest on February 20, 2019 subject to each eligible person’s continued employment with the Company. Additionally, in connection with certain members of senior management’s separation from the Company in early February 2018, the Board agreed to accelerate the vesting and distribution of an aggregate of 118,821 RSAs to these members of senior management. The remaining 59,411 RSAs for these members of senior management were forfeited. As a net result of the vesting acceleration of the RSAs and the forfeiture of those unvested RSAs, an additional $0.7 million compensation expense was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

2017 Market-Based RSAs and RSUs

 

On January 17, 2017, the Compensation Committee approved and granted 353,508 RSAs and 53,360 RSUs to senior management. These awards include a market condition based on the TSR of Innoviva’s common stock as compared to the TSR of NASDAQ Biotechnology Index (“Index”) and a service condition that requires continued employment, collectively the “Performance Measures II”. The vesting percentages of these awards are calculated based on the two-year performance period with a catch-up provision opportunity measured on December 31, 2019 for RSAs and on September 30, 2019 for RSUs. Two-thirds of amounts earned at the end of year two will vest and be distributed on February 20, 2019, while the final one-third earned after two years as well as the catch-up amount earned will vest and be distributed on February 20, 2020 for RSAs and November 20, 2019 for RSUs. The actual payout of shares may range from a minimum of zero shares to a maximum of 406,868 shares granted upon the actual performance against the Performance Measures II. The grant date fair value of these awards is determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The aggregate value of $3.2 million is recognized as compensation expense over the implied service period and will not be reversed if the market condition is not met, but with the exception of such person’s continued employment with the Company.

 

In connection with certain members of senior management’s separation from the Company mentioned above, an aggregate of 233,448 RSAs for these members of senior management were forfeited, and $0.8 million of previously recognized compensation expense was reversed during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

2018 Market-Based RSAs and RSUs

 

On March 2, 2018, the Compensation Committee approved and granted 111,668 RSAs and 49,630 RSUs to senior management. These awards include a market condition based on the TSR of Innoviva’s common stock over a three-year performance period from the date of grant for the RSAs and from the date of grant until September 30, 2020 for RSUs, and a service condition that requires continued employment, collectively the “Performance Measures III”. The actual payout of shares may range from a minimum of zero shares to a maximum of 161,298 shares granted upon the actual performance against the Performance Measures III. The grant date fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The aggregate value of $1.7 million is recognized as compensation expense over the implied service period and will not be reversed if the market condition is not met, but with the exception of such person’s continued employment with the Company.

Prepayment of Senior Secured Term Loans

 

On February 28, 2018, we paid down the principal balance of the Term B Loan by $120.0 million. With the prepayment, we incurred a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $3.1 million representing unamortized debt issuance costs. The loss on the extinguishment of debt is presented as part of other income (expense), net in our consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding principal balance of the Term B Loan was reduced to $123.8 million.

 

Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025

 

In accordance with accounting guidance for debt with conversion and other options, we separately account for the liability and equity components of the 2025 Notes by allocating the proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion option (“equity component”) due to our ability to settle the conversion obligation of the 2025 Notes in cash, common stock or a combination of cash and common stock, at our option. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature using the income approach. The allocation was performed in a manner that reflected our non-convertible debt borrowing rate for similar debt. The equity component of the 2025 Notes was recognized as a debt discount and represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Notes and the fair value of the liability of the 2025 Notes on the date of issuance. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. The equity component is not re-measured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In connection with the issuance of the 2025 Notes, we incurred approximately $5.4 million of debt issuance costs, which primarily consisted of placement, legal and other professional fees, and allocated these costs to the liability and equity components based on the allocation of the proceeds. Of the total $5.4 million of debt issuance costs, $1.9 million were allocated to the equity component and recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital and $3.5 million were allocated to the liability component and recorded as a reduction to the carrying amount of the liability component on the consolidated balance sheet. The portion allocated to the liability component is amortized to interest expense over the expected life of the 2025 Notes using the effective interest method.

7. Related Party Transaction

 

On February 12, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Sarissa Capital Management LP, and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “Sarissa Group”) related to the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2018 Annual Meeting”). The agreement provided for, among other things, the concurrent appointment of three designees of the Sarissa Group as members of the Company’s Board of Directors and an agreement to recommend and nominate a five-person slate of directors for election at the 2018 Annual Meeting composed of the three new directors and two current directors of the Company and partially reimburse the Sarissa Group $2.7 million for expenses, which reimbursement obligation relating to the 2018 Annual Meeting arose upon execution of the agreement. The Sarissa Group is considered to be a related party due to its representation on the Board of Directors.

 

8. Income Taxes

 

There was no income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Should we continue to generate taxable income in 2018, we expect that the taxable income will be substantially offset by the utilization of net operating losses or other deferred tax assets, and potential release of valuation allowance. The difference between the consolidated effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate is primarily attributable to a change in valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.

Collaborative Arrangements with GSK

 

LABA Collaboration

 

In November 2002, we entered into our LABA Collaboration Agreement with GSK to develop and commercialize once-daily LABA products for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“COPD”) and asthma. The collaboration has developed three combination products: (1) RELVAR®/BREO® ELLIPTA® (FF/VI) (BREO® ELLIPTA® is the proprietary name in the U.S. and Canada and RELVAR® ELLIPTA® is the proprietary name outside the U.S. and Canada), a once-daily combination medicine consisting of a LABA, vilanterol (VI), and an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), fluticasone furoate (FF), (2) ANORO® ELLIPTA® (UMEC/VI), a once-daily medicine combining a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (“LAMA”), umeclidinium bromide (UMEC), with a LABA, VI and (3) TRELEGY® ELLIPTA®, fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI), a once-daily combination medicine consisting of an ICS, LAMA and LABA.

 

As a result of the launch and approval of RELVAR®/BREO® ELLIPTA® and ANORO® ELLIPTA® in the U.S., Japan and Europe, in accordance with the LABA Collaboration Agreement, we paid milestone fees to GSK totaling $220.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. The milestone fees paid to GSK were recognized as capitalized fees paid to a related party, which are being amortized over their estimated useful lives commencing upon the commercial launch of the products.

 

2004 Strategic Alliance

 

In March 2004, we entered into the Strategic Alliance Agreement with GSK where GSK received an option to license exclusive development and commercialization rights to product candidates from certain of our discovery programs on pre-determined terms and on an exclusive, worldwide basis. In 2005, GSK licensed our MABA program for the treatment of COPD, and in October 2011, we and GSK expanded the MABA program by adding six additional Innoviva-discovered preclinical MABA compounds (the “Additional MABAs”). The development program has been funded in full by GSK and is in Phase II clinical studies stage. GSK is in the process of determining next steps for the program. For a detailed discussion of our alliance with GSK, see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on February 23, 2018 (“2017 Form 10-K”).

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). 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 as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenue generated and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue recognition

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard, ASC 606. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 on a modified prospective basis. Under the new guidance, revenue is recognized when our customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized through a five-step process: (i) identify the contract with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price for the contract; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as we do not have any unrecognized transaction price, other than sales-based royalty revenue, or any remaining performance obligations under our collaboration agreements. We continue to recognize the royalty revenue on licensee net sales of products with respect to which we have contractual royalty rights in the period in which the royalties are earned and reported to us. Royalties are recognized net of amortization of capitalized fees associated with any approval and launch milestone payments made to GSK.

 

Income tax valuation allowance

 

As of December 31, 2017, we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1.0 billion and federal research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $45.2 million.  As of June 30, 2018, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on its gross deferred taxes.  In assessing whether a valuation allowance is required against the deferred tax assets, the Company has considered the positive and negative evidence as well as sources of taxable income in assessing the realizability of the deferred tax assets. Realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income.  We have considered our 3-year cumulative income position as well as strategic options available to the Company that may raise uncertainty regarding continued profitability.  Provided that Innoviva continues to generate profits in future quarters and also narrows its strategic options to exclude those that raise uncertainty regarding future profitability, it is reasonably possible that the valuation allowance on the federal deferred tax assets could be removed in the near term.  This change in estimate on the realization of the deferred tax asset could result in an income tax benefit of approximately $0.2 billion in the period of change.

 

Utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Annual limitations may result in expiration of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before some or all of such amounts have been utilized.  The Company conducted a Section 382 analysis through December 31, 2016 to determine whether an ownership change had occurred since inception. The Section 382 study concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company did not experience an ownership change during the testing period. However, notwithstanding the applicable annual limitations, no portion of the net operating loss or credit carryforwards are expected to expire before becoming available to reduce federal and state income tax liabilities as a result of those identified ownership changes. If we undergo another ownership change, the utilization of the pre-ownership change net operating loss carryforwards or pre-ownership change tax attributes, such as research tax credits, to offset the post-ownership change income may be subject to an annual limitation, pursuant to Section 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

There were no other significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on February 23, 2018 provides a more complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Total net revenue increased to $67.1 million and $119.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $58.6 million and $99.1 million, respectively, for the same periods a year ago primarily due to the growth in prescriptions and market share quarter over quarter for both RELVAR®/BREO® ELLIPTA® and ANORO® ELLIPTA®, and initiation of sales by GSK of TRELEGY® ELLIPTA® in the fourth quarter of 2017.

 

Research & Development

 

We did not incur research and development expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in research and development activities related to the late-stage partnered respiratory assets with GSK.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were $4.4 million compared with $10.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $6.0 million. The amount for the three months ended June 30, 2017 included $4.3 million of proxy contest and associated litigation costs. The rest of the decrease in general and administrative expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2018 is mainly attributable to lower personnel-related expenses, including stock-based compensation expenses, as a result of lower headcount.

 

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $13.4 million compared with $21.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $7.8 million. The amount for the six months ended June 30, 2017 included $8.5 million of proxy contest and associated litigation costs. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included $3.2 million cash severance payments in connection with certain members of senior management’s separation from the Company and payment of $2.7 million to Sarissa to partially reimburse expenses pursuant to a settlement agreement in February 2018. The rest of the decrease in general and administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2018 is mainly attributable to lower personnel-related expenses, including stock-based compensation expenses, as a result of lower headcount.

Other income (expense), net for the six months ended June 30, 2018, mainly consists of the loss on the extinguishment of debt of $3.1 million in relation to the $120.0 million prepayment of our Term B Loan. Other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 mainly consists of the write-off of debt issuance costs of $0.8 million in relation to our partial prepayment of our non-recourse notes due 2029 (“2029 Notes”).

 

Interest income increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period a year ago primarily due to higher interest generated from our investments in marketable securities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity

 

Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through private placements and public offerings of equity and debt securities and payments received under collaborative arrangements. In the six months ended June 30, 2018, we generated gross royalty revenues from GSK of $126.4 million. Net cash and cash equivalents, short term investments and marketable securities totaled $107.5 million, and royalties receivable from GSK totaled $70.5 million as of June 30, 2018.

 

On August 7, 2017, we completed a private placement of $192.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 2025 Notes. The proceeds include the 2025 Notes sold pursuant to the $17.5 million over-allotment option granted by us to the initial purchasers, which option was exercised in full. The 2025 Notes were sold in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The 2025 Notes will mature on August 15, 2025, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Concurrently with the pricing of the offering, we repurchased and retired 1,317,771 shares of our common stock for approximately $17.5 million of the net proceeds from the offering, in privately negotiated transactions effected through one of the initial purchasers or its affiliate, as our agent. The remaining net proceeds from the sale of the 2025 Notes in the offering were used to redeem a portion of the principal outstanding under the 2029 Notes on August 15, 2017.

 

On August 18, 2017, we entered into a Credit Agreement and completed a financing of $250.0 million Term B Loan, the proceeds of which were used to repay the remaining balance of the 2029 Notes. The Term B Loan will mature on August 18, 2022. Two and a half percent (2.5%) of the initial principal amount was originally due quarterly beginning December 31, 2017. The remaining outstanding balance is due at maturity. Prepayments, in whole or in part, can be made at any time without a penalty. The Credit Agreement also provides us the ability to request one or more additional tranches of term loans (or increase an existing term loan) at any time prior to maturity. On February 28, 2018, we paid down the principal balance of the Term B Loan by $120.0 million. The outstanding principal balance of the Term B Loan as of June 30, 2018 was $123.8 million.

Adequacy of Cash Resources to Meet Future Needs

 

We believe that cash from projected future royalty revenues and our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated debt service and operating needs for at least the next twelve months based upon current operating plans and financial forecasts. If our current operating plans and financial forecasts change, we may require additional funding sooner in the form of public or private equity offerings or debt financings. Furthermore, if in our view favorable financing opportunities arise, we may seek additional funding at any time. However, future financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. This could leave us without adequate financial resources to fund our operations as currently planned. In addition, from time to time we may restructure or reduce our debt, including through tender offers, redemptions, amendments, repurchases or otherwise, all consistent with the terms of our debt agreements.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

 

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $101.6 million, consisting primarily of our net income of $86.9 million, adjusted for non-cash items such as $6.9 million of depreciation and amortization, $4.0 million amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, $3.6 million of stock-based compensation expense and $3.1 million of loss on extinguishment of debt, partially offset by a reduction in accrued personnel-related expenses and other accrued liabilities of $1.5 million.

 

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $50.4 million, consisting primarily of our net income of $52.0 million, adjusted for non-cash items such as $7.0 million of depreciation and amortization and $4.9 million for stock-based compensation expense, offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities, including an increase in receivables from collaborative arrangements of $14.9 million.

 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

 

Net cash flows from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $35.6 million was primarily due to $54.9 million proceeds received from maturities of marketable securities, partially offset by $19.3 million in purchases of marketable securities.

 

Net cash flows from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $24.4 million was primarily due to $36.4 million proceeds received from maturities of marketable securities, partially offset by $12.0 million in purchases of marketable securities.

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $123.3 million was primarily due to $120.0 million prepayment on our Term B Loan and $2.8 million paid for the repurchase of shares to satisfy tax withholding.

 

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $65.2 million was primarily due to $64.4 million principal repayments of the 2029 Notes and $0.8 million paid for repurchase of shares to satisfy tax withholding.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

In June 2014, our facility leases in South San Francisco, California were assigned to Theravance Biopharma, Inc. (“Theravance Biopharma”) in connection with the spin-off of Theravance Biopharma. However, if Theravance Biopharma were to default on its lease obligations, we would be held liable by the landlord and thus, we have in substance guaranteed the lease payments for these facilities. We would also be responsible for lease-related payments including utilities, property taxes, and common area maintenance, which may be as much as the actual lease payments. As of June 30, 2018, the total remaining lease payments for the duration of the lease, which runs through May 2020, were $12.4 million. The carrying value of this lease guarantee was $0.6 million as of June 30, 2018 and is reflected in other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

 

There have been no significant changes in our market risk or how our market risk is managed compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

We conducted an evaluation as of June 30, 2018, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which are defined under SEC rules as 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 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods. Based upon that evaluation, our Interim Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance levels.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all frauds. 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 benefit of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the 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 Innoviva have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

2.              Cash Compensation.  The Company will pay you a starting annual base salary of $300,000, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule.  This salary will be subject to adjustment by the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation CommitteeIn addition, you will be eligible to be considered for an incentive bonus for each fiscal year of the Company.  The bonus (if any) will be awarded based on objective or subjective criteria established and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee.  Your target bonus will be equal to 60% of your annual base salary.  Any bonus for the fiscal year in which your employment begins will be prorated, based on the number of days you are employed by the Company during that fiscal year.  Any bonus for a fiscal year is expected to be paid within 2.5 months after the close of that fiscal year, but only if you are still an active employee of the Company in good standing at the time of payment.  The determinations of the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee with respect to your bonus will be final and binding.

4.              Stock Options.  Subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee, you will be granted an option to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee at a later date (the “Option”).  The exercise price per share of the Option will be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee when the Option is granted.  The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to options granted under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the applicable Stock Option Agreement.  You will vest in 25% of the Option shares after 12 months of continuous service with the Company (the “One-year Anniversary”), and the balance will vest in 12 equal installments on each Company Vesting Date thereafter, provided you remain in continuous service

 



 

through each such vesting date, as described in the applicable Stock Option Agreement.  A “Company Vesting Date” means February 20, May 20, August 20 or November 20.

Such payment will be made within 60 days after your Separation; however, if such 60-day period spans two calendar years, then the payment will be made on the first pay period in the second calendar year after expiration of any revocation period.

 

c.               Cash Bonus.

d.              Severance Plan.   You hereby agree that you are not entitled to any payments, equity acceleration or other benefits pursuant to the Company’s 2009 Severance Plan, as amended, and that the only benefits you may be entitled to upon the termination of your employment with the Company are set forth in this Section 5.

c.               Tax Advice. You are encouraged to obtain your own tax advice regarding your compensation from the Company.
