Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
|
Business
BioLife Solutions, Inc. ("BioLife,” “us,” “we,” “our,” or the “Company”) develops, manufactures and markets patented hypothermic storage and cryopreservation solutions for cells and tissues. The Company’s proprietary HypoThermosol® FRS, CryoStor®, and generic BloodStor®, biopreservation media products and SAVSU® precision thermal packaging products are marketed to the biobanking, drug discovery, and regenerative medicine markets, including hospital-based stem cell transplant centers, pharmaceutical companies, cord blood and adult stem cell banks, hair transplant centers, and suppliers of cells to the drug discovery, toxicology testing and diagnostic markets. BioLife’s products are serum-free and protein-free, fully defined, and are formulated to reduce preservation-induced, delayed-onset cell damage and death. BioLife’s enabling technology provides academic and clinical researchers significant improvements in post-thaw cell, tissue, and organ viability and function. Additionally, for our direct, distributor, and contract customers, we perform custom formulation, fill, and finish services.
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to these rules and regulations, we have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures we normally include in our annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In management’s opinion, we have made all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Our interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 on file with the SEC.
There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Concentrations of credit risk and business risk
In the three months ended March 31, 2015, we derived approximately 11% of our product revenue from one customer. In the three months ended March 31, 2014, we derived approximately 45% of our product revenue from our relationship with one contract manufacturing customer. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2015 or 2014. At March 31, 2015, two customers accounted for approximately 25% of total gross accounts receivable. At December 31, 2014, two customers accounted for approximately 25% of total gross accounts receivable.
Revenue from customers located in foreign countries represented 21% and 9% of total revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Internal Use Software
We capitalize costs associated with the development of the biologistex web and mobile applications, which we consider internal-use software. Capitalization of costs began in the first quarter of 2015, when we reached the application development stage. Such capitalized costs include external direct costs utilized in developing or obtaining the applications and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees, who are directly associated with the development of the applications. Capitalization will cease once we have completed all substantial testing, at which time the applications are complete and ready for their intended use.
In the three months ended March 31, 2015, we capitalized $0.3 million in costs related to the development of the biologistex web and mobile applications. Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, will be expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized. Capitalized costs will be amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful life of three years once the software has been commercially deployed.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. We have not yet selected a transition method and we are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
With the exception of the new revenue standard discussed above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective that have significance, or potential significance, to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurement
|
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," (“ASC Topic 820”), the Company measures its cash and cash equivalents and short term investments at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier value fair hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company does not have liabilities that are measured at fair value.
The following tables set forth the Company's financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy:

As of March 31, 2015, there was $523,956 of aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding stock options, including $514,621 of aggregate intrinsic value of exercisable stock options. Intrinsic value is the total pretax intrinsic value for all “in-the-money” options (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the quarter and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2015. This amount will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock. There were no options granted in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. During the quarter ended March 31, 2015 intrinsic value of awards exercised was $20,937.
The fair value of share-based payments made with stock options to employees and non-employee directors was estimated on the measurement date using the Black-Scholes model using the following weighted average assumptions.

Management applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is derived from historical employee termination data. The estimated forfeiture rate applied for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was approximately 7%.
As of March 31, 2015, we had approximately $294,196 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options. We expect to recognize this compensation expense over a weighted average period of approximately 2.75 years.
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we issued or committed to issue common stock of the Company with a value of $80,000 for services rendered during the period. These costs were recorded in general and administrative expenses during the period.
On May 4, 2015 the Board of Directors approved the grant of stock options exercisable into approximately 1.2 million shares to be granted to executive and directors following shareholder approval of proposed amendments to the Company’s 2013 Performance Incentive Plan at the Company’s annual meeting on May 4, 2015.

Net Loss per Common Share
|
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents are excluded for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, since the effect is anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses. Common stock equivalents include stock options and warrants.
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding, and the potentially dilutive securities excluded from loss per share computations because they are anti-dilutive, are as follows as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

Overview
Management’s discussion and analysis provides additional insight into the Company and is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC.
We were incorporated in Delaware in 1987 under the name Trans Time Medical Products, Inc. In 2002, the Company, then known as Cryomedical Sciences, Inc., and engaged in manufacturing and marketing cryosurgical products, completed a merger with our wholly-owned subsidiary, BioLife Solutions, Inc., which was engaged as a developer and marketer of biopreservation media products for cells and tissues. Following the merger, we changed our name to BioLife Solutions, Inc. We have one majority-owned subsidiary, biologistex CCM, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.
Our proprietary, clinical grade HypoThermosol® FRS and CryoStor® biopreservation media products are marketed to the regenerative medicine, biobanking and drug discovery markets, including hospital-based stem cell transplant centers, pharmaceutical companies, cord blood and adult stem cell banks, hair transplant centers, and suppliers of cells to the drug discovery, toxicology testing and diagnostic markets. All of our biopreservation media products are serum-free and protein-free, fully defined, and are manufactured under current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) using United States Pharmacopia (USP)/Multicompendial or the highest available grade components.
12
Our patented biopreservation media products are formulated to reduce preservation-induced, delayed-onset cell damage and death. Our platform enabling technology provides our customers significant shelf life extension of biologic source material and final cell products, and also greatly improved post-preservation cell, tissue, and organ viability and function. We believe that our products have been incorporated into the manufacturing, storage, shipping, freezing, and clinical delivery processes of over 185 pre-clinical projects and clinical trials in the regenerative medicine market segment applications
.
The discoveries made by our scientists and consultants relate to how cells, tissues, and organs respond to the stress of hypothermic storage, cryopreservation, and the thawing process. These discoveries enabled the formulation of innovative biopreservation media products that protect biologic material from preservation-related cellular injury, much of which is not apparent immediately after return to normothermic body temperature. Our product formulations have demonstrated notable reduction in apoptotic (programmed) and necrotic (pathologic) cell death mechanisms and are enabling the clinical and commercial development of dozens of innovative regenerative medicine products.
On September 29, 2014, we entered into a limited liability company agreement with SAVSU Technologies, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company to create a 20-year joint venture for the purpose of acquiring, developing, maintaining, owning, operating, marketing and selling an integrated platform of a cloud-based information service and precision thermal shipping products. The EVO™ line is our new line of “smart shippers” designed for the shipment of materials, which must be maintained frozen, at 2-8˚C and/or controlled room temperature temperatures and where near real time monitoring of temperature, location, and payload status information is necessary. A sophisticated electronics package embedded in the EVO provides streaming data to the biologistex web-based application; where real time shipment status, history, and reports can be generated. Designed for small volume shipments; it fills a critical need in chain-of-custody scenarios for temperature sensitive shipments of cells, tissues, and other cell based products.
Highlights for
the First Quarter of 2015
|
●
|
Proprietary core products revenue in the first quarter of 2015 increased 30% over the first quarter of 2014 to a record $1.5 million, reflecting continued adoption of our products in clinical trials in the regenerative medicine market, as well as increased sales to our US and international distributors.
|
|
●
|
Gross margin in the first quarter of 2015 was 59%, compared to 44% in the first quarter of 2014. The improvement over 2014 is a result of a change in our product mix, with essentially all revenue in the quarter realized from sales of our proprietary biopreservation media products as compared to the first quarter of 2014 that included a significant amount of low margin contract-manufacturing revenue.
|
|
●
|
Consolidated net loss attributable to BioLife for the first quarter of 2015 was $1.0 million or $0.09/share, compared to a net loss of $0.6 million or $0.10/share in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in the loss is primarily the result of increased headcount and spending related to development and launch activities of our biologistex joint venture.
|
|
●
|
New Product Introductions: Cell Thawing Media - We commenced GMP manufacturing of low molecular weight dextran solutions for use in thawing human cells after cryopreservation in response to inquiries from numerous customers and clinicians who have been subjected to an extended worldwide shortage of dextran solutions that are used off-label to transition frozen cells to room temperature.
|
|
●
|
New Data Published by the Mayo Clinic on Product Performance: We announced that our CryoStor cell freeze media was utilized in a Mayo Clinic porcine animal study of umbilical cord blood-derived mononuclear cells (UBC-MNC) to evaluate the safety and feasibility of these cells for cardiac regeneration in pediatric congenital heart disease (CHD).
|
|
●
|
New Patent: We expanded our intellectual property protection with the granting of new Australian patent number 2009228056
titled, “Materials and Methods for Hypothermic Collection of Whole Blood”.
|
|
●
|
Innovation Recognition: We received the 2015 Silver Award for Achievement in Medical Technology from Seattle Business Magazine.
|
|
●
|
Executive Appointments & Awards: Dr. Aby J. Mathew, PhD, Chief Technology Officer, was appointed to the founding board of directors of the newly formed Cord Blood Association. Also, Kevin O’Donnell, Vice President, Cold Chain Standards, Practices, and Compliance was named 2014 Distinguished Editor/Author of the Year by the Parenteral Drug Association, for his published book “Cold Chain Chronicles.

Results of Operations
Our revenue, results of operations and cash balances are likely to fluctuate significantly from quarter-to-quarter. These fluctuations are due to a number of factors, specifically the progress of our customers’ clinical trials, where the pace of enrollment affects customer orders for our products. The majority of our net sales come from a relatively small number of customers and a limited number of market sectors. Each of these sectors is subject to macroeconomic conditions as well as trends and conditions that are sector specific. Any weakness in the market sectors in which our customers are concentrated could affect our business and results of operations.

Core Product Sales.
Our core products are sold through both direct and indirect channels to customers in the regenerative medicine, biobanking and drug discovery markets. Sales of our core proprietary products in the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased compared to the same period in 2014, due primarily to a 33% increase in volume sold. Proprietary revenue growth was driven by a 92% year over year increase from customers in the regenerative medicine segment. Several new regenerative medicine customers commenced product evaluations in the quarter and others started using CryoStor and HypoThermosol to preserve cell-based therapeutics in clinical trials focused on various cancers including leukemia, melanoma, renal cancer, liver cancer, as well as limb ischemia and dermal defects. We believe our products are incorporated in over 185 pre-clinical projects and clinical trials in the regenerative medicine segment. We anticipate that revenue from this market will become fully realized over the next three to five years as some customers receive regulatory and marketing approvals for their clinical cell and tissue-based products. We expect to see continued growth in adoption and use of our proprietary biopreservation media products, and estimate 20% - 30% growth in core product revenue over 2014. Additionally, we expect to fully commercialize our biologistex Cold Chain Management service starting early in the second half of this year and to report revenue from this service in the third quarter.
Contract Manufacturing Services.
In the first quarter of 2015, contract manufacturing revenue was the result of process validation work performed for one customer. Based on recent communication from this customer regarding the pace of their clinical trial, we do not expect any future revenue from this customer. In 2014, contract manufacturing services represented sales of product to one significant customer. The contract with this customer was terminated in May of 2014.
Cost of Sales.
Cost of sales consists of raw materials, labor and overhead expenses. Cost of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased compared to the same periods in 2014 due primarily to the reduction in contract manufacturing services revenue and costs related to the manufacture of this product.
Gross Margin.
Gross margin as a percentage of revenue was 59% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to 44% in the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase was due an increase in core product revenue and a decrease in low margin contract manufacturing revenue.
For the full year, we expect gross margin to be in the range of
55
% to 60%.
Revenue Concentration.
In the three months ended March 31, 2015, we derived approximately 11% of our product revenue from one customer. In the three months ended March 31, 2014, we derived approximately 45% of our product revenue from our relationship with one contract manufacturing customer. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2015 or 2014.

Research and Development.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, consulting and other outside services, laboratory supplies, and other costs. We expense all research and development costs as incurred. Research and development expenses excludes the costs associated with development of customized internal-use software systems. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, due primarily to higher personnel costs, with the addition of personnel in the fourth quarter of 2014, and salary increases that were effective on January 1, 2015.
Sales and Marketing.
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, consulting, trade shows and advertising. The increase in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 were due primarily to higher personnel costs, with the addition of personnel in 2014 and costs related to the initial marketing activities of our biologistex joint venture, and salary increases that were effective on January 1, 2015.
General and Administrative Expenses.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, non-cash stock-based compensation for administrative personnel and members of the board of directors, professional fees, such as accounting and legal, corporate insurance, and participation fees to SAVSU related to the biologistex joint venture. The increases in general and administrative expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 includes approximately $0.2 million in participation fees to SAVSU related to the biologistex joint venture, which represents two monthly installments. We recorded approximately $0.1 million more in higher personnel costs, including recruitment costs in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to 2014. Additionally, we recorded $0.6 million in higher corporate costs, including insurance, taxes, director fees and consulting fees in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014.
Other Income (Expenses)
Interest Expense.
The reduction in interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 is due to the conversion to equity of all outstanding notes and interest through March 25, 2014.
Amortization of Deferred Financing Costs.
Amortization of deferred financing costs represented the cost of warrants issued which were amortized over the life of the debt. In connection with the termination of the note facility agreements in March 2014, we recorded $101,852, the remaining unamortized costs, as an adjustment to additional paid in capital.
Liquidity
We expect to end the year with approximately $4 million in cash, cash equivalents and short term investments. The estimated use of cash in 2015 includes substantial costs related to the development and marketing launch of our biologistex Cold Chain Management service. We anticipate that our current level of cash and cash equivalents is sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future and do not expect a need to raise operating capital in 2015 or 2016.
We expect to have ongoing cash requirements which we plan to fund through total available liquidity and cash flows generated from operations. Our future uses of cash, which may vary from time to time based on market conditions and other factors, are centered on growing our core business, launching and deploying our biologistex service, and continuing to strengthen our balance sheet and competitive position.
On March 31, 2015, we had $8.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and short term investments, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $9.9 million at December 31, 2014.
Net Cash Used In Operating Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, net cash used in operating activities was $1.3 million compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Cash used in operating activities increased primarily due to the use of cash to fund a higher net loss, which was offset by cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities during the period ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014.
Net Cash Provided by/Used in Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities totaled $1.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015, which was the result of sales and maturities of short term investments, net of purchases of short term investments and purchases of equipment during the quarter. Cash used in investing activities was $19,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which was primarily the result of purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements.
15
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $25,000 and $13.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was the result of proceeds received from employee stock option exercises. Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily the result of proceeds received from the registered public stock offering completed on March 25, 2014, net of placement agent fees and offering costs.
Upon conversion of all of our outstanding notes and interest to equity on March 25, 2014, we terminated the facility agreements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements requires that we 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 consolidated financial statements as well as reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including, but not limited to those related to accounts receivable allowances, determination of fair value of share-based compensation, contingencies, income taxes, useful lives and impairment of intangible assets and internal use software, and expense accruals. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other factors that we believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed significantly from those policies and estimates disclosed under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates” in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC.
Contractual Obligations
We previously disclosed certain contractual obligations and contingencies and commitments relevant to us within the financial statements and Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the SEC on March 12, 2015. There have been no significant changes to these obligations in the three months ended March 31, 2015. For more information regarding our current contingencies and commitments, see note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included above.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as required by the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Control.
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors 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 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 our Company have been detected.
