1. Organization and Description of Business

Fortress Biotech, Inc. (“Fortress” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to acquiring, developing and commercializing novel pharmaceutical and biotechnology products. Fortress plans to continue to develop and commercialize products both within Fortress and its subsidiaries, also referred to herein as the “Fortress Companies”. In addition to its internal development programs, the Company plans to leverage its biopharmaceutical business expertise and drug development capabilities to help the Fortress Companies innovate, develop and commercialize products. Additionally, the Company will provide funding and management services to each of the Fortress Companies and, from time to time, the Company and the Fortress Companies will seek licensing, acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures and/or public and private financings to accelerate and provide additional funding to support their research and development programs.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company has several consolidated Fortress Companies, which contain product licenses, including Avenue Therapeutics, Inc. (“Avenue”), Journey Medical Corporation (“JMC”), Coronado SO Co. (“Coronado SO”), Checkpoint Therapeutics, Inc. (“Checkpoint”), Mustang Bio, Inc. (“Mustang”), Helocyte, Inc. (“Helocyte”), Escala Therapeutics, Inc. (“Escala”) and other consolidated Fortress subsidiaries which have minimal activity, including Innmune Limited, CB Securities Corporation (holds investments classified as cash and cash equivalents in 2016 and 2015), and Cyprium Therapeutics, Inc. 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statement results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any future period.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 15, 2016, from which the Company derived the balance sheet data at December 31, 2015.

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries: Innmune Limited, Coronado SO, Cyprium Therapeutics, Inc., Escala, JMC, CB Securities Corporation, Avenue, Checkpoint, Mustang and Helocyte. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Use of Estimates

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include certain amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The Company’s significant estimates include, but are not limited to, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, fair value measurements, stock-based compensation, common stock issued to acquire licenses, investments, accrued expenses, provisions for income taxes and contingencies. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows accounting guidance on fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Under the accounting guidance, fair value is defined as 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 at the measurement date. 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 a liability.

The accounting guidance requires that fair value measurements be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability.

Certain of the Company’s financial instruments are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are recorded at amounts that approximate their fair value due to their liquid or short-term nature, such as accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The carrying value of the amount owed to Ovamed GmbH (“Ovamed”) upon the acquisition of certain manufacturing rights in December 2012 under the amendment to the Company’s sublicense agreement with Ovamed has been recorded at its net present value, which approximates its fair value. The amounts due to Ovamed are included in current liabilities at June 30, 2016 and at December 31, 2015 on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 9).

Segment Reporting

Effective April 1, 2016, consistent with the increase in JMC’s operations, the Company now operates in two operating and reportable segments, Dermatology Product Sales and Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Product Development. The chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. There are no significant inter-segment sales. The Company evaluates the performance of each segment based on operating profit or loss. There is no inter-segment allocation of interest expense and income taxes.  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2016 and at December 31, 2015 consisted of cash, money market funds and certificates of deposit in institutions in the United States. Balances at certain institutions have exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits and U.S. government agency securities.

Property and Equipment

Office equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful lives or the term of the respective leases.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Factors that the Company considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends, and significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets. If an impairment review is performed to evaluate a long-lived asset for recoverability, the Company compares forecasts of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the long-lived asset to its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss would be based on the excess of the carrying value of the impaired asset over its fair value, determined based on discounted cash flows.

Restricted Cash 

The Company records cash held in trust or pledged to secure certain debt obligations as restricted cash. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has $14.6 million of restricted cash collateralizing a note payable of $14.0 million (see Note 8) and a pledge to secure a letter of credit in connection with a new lease of $0.6 million.

Inventories

Inventories comprise finished goods, which are valued at the lower of cost or market, on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company evaluates the carrying value of inventories on a regular basis, taking into account anticipated future sales compared with quantities on hand, and the remaining shelf life of goods on hand.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consists of amounts due to the Company for product sales from JMC. The Company’s accounts receivable reflects discounts for early payment and for product returns.

Investments at Fair Value

The Company elects the fair value option for its long-term investments at fair value (see Note 4). The decision to elect the fair value option, which is irrevocable once elected, is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis and applied to an entire instrument. The net gains or losses, if any, on an investment for which the fair value option has been elected are recognized as a change in fair value of investments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has various processes and controls in place to ensure that fair value is reasonably estimated. While the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Fair Value Option

As permitted under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, Financial Instruments, (“ASC 825”), the Company has elected the fair value option to account for its Helocyte convertible notes that were issued during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. In accordance with ASC 825, the Company records these convertible notes at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. As a result of applying the fair value option, direct costs and fees related to the Helocyte convertible notes were recognized in earnings as incurred and were not deferred.

Accounting for Warrants at Fair Value

The Company classifies as liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net-cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company) or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).

The fair value of warrants that include price protection reset provision features are deemed to be “down-round protection” and, therefore, do not meet the scope exception for treatment as a derivative under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedges”, since “down-round protection” is not an input into the calculation of the fair value of warrants and cannot be considered “indexed to the Company’s own stock” which is a requirement for the scope exception as outlined under ASC 815. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

The Company assessed the classification of warrants (the “June 2016 Warrants”) issued, in connection with the Helocyte convertible note financing in June 2016, and determined that the June 2016 Warrants met the criteria for liability classification. Accordingly, the Company classified the June 2016 Warrants as a liability at their fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expired. Any change in the fair value of the June 2016 Warrants is recognized as “change in the fair value of warrant liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Issuance of Debt and Equity

The Company issues complex financial instruments which include both equity and debt features. The Company analyzes each instrument under FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 815”), Derivatives and Hedging and FASB ASC 470, Debt in order to establish whether such instruments include any embedded derivatives.

Valuation of Warrants Related to NSC Note

In accordance with FASB No. ASC 815, the Company classified the fair value of the warrants granted in connection with the NSC Note transferred to Avenue effective February 2015 (the “Contingently Issuable Warrants”) as a derivative liability. The Company valued these Contingently Issuable Warrants using an option pricing model and used estimates for an expected dividend yield, a risk-free interest rate, and expected volatility together with management’s estimate of the probability of issuance of the Contingently Issuable Warrants (see Note 4 and Note 8). At each reporting period, as long as the Contingently Issuable Warrants were potentially issuable and there was a potential for an insufficient number of authorized shares available to settle the Contingently Issuable Warrants, these Contingently Issuable Warrants will be revalued, and any difference from the previous valuation date would be recognized as a change in fair value of Contingently Issuable Warrants in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Intangible Asset Licenses

The Company records the costs of acquired product distribution license rights as intangible asset-licenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon commencement of product sales, license rights associated with those sales are amortized over the expected life of the product into product expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2016, product sales related to certain of the Company’s intangible asset licenses commenced and the Company commenced amortization of those licenses (see Note 7).

Deferred Financing Costs

Financing costs incurred in connection with the promissory note for $15.0 million between Israel Discount Bank (“IDB”) and the National Securities Corporation’s NSC Biotech Venture Fund I LLC (the “NSC Note”) are now recorded as a reduction of principal balance due to ASU No. 2015-3 and are amortized over the appropriate expected life based on the term of the NSC Note using the effective interest rate method.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue for the performance of services or the shipment of products when each of the following four criteria is met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) products are delivered or services are rendered; (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Reimbursement Arrangements and Collaborative Arrangements

Checkpoint is reimbursed by TG Therapeutics, Inc. (“TGTX”), a related party, for TGTX’s share of the cost of the license and product research and development under their collaboration agreement. The gross amount of these reimbursed costs is reported as revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, since the Company acts as a principal, bears credit risk and may perform part of the services required in the transactions. Consistent with ASC 605-45, Revenue Recognition - Principal Agent Considerations, these reimbursements are treated as revenue by the Company. The actual expenses creating the reimbursements are reflected as expenses in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company follows ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Element Arrangements (“ASC 605-25”) and ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements, if applicable, to determine the recognition of revenue under its collaborative research agreements, options to enter into collaborative research agreements and development and commercialization agreements. The terms of these agreements generally contain multiple elements, or deliverables, which may include (i) grants of licenses, or options to obtain licenses, to the Company’s intellectual property, (ii) research and development services, (iii) drug product manufacturing, and/or (iv) participation on joint research and/or joint development committees. The payments we may receive under these arrangements typically include one or more of the following: non-refundable, up-front license fees; funding of research and/or development efforts; amounts due upon the achievement of specified objectives; and/or royalties on future product sales.

ASC 605-25 provides guidance relating to the separability of deliverables included in an arrangement into different units of accounting and the allocation of arrangement consideration to the units of accounting. The evaluation of multiple-element arrangements requires management to make judgments about (i) the identification of deliverables, (ii) whether such deliverables are separable from the other aspects of the contractual relationship, (iii) the estimated selling price of each deliverable, and (iv) the expected period of performance for each deliverable.

To determine the units of accounting under a multiple-element arrangement, management evaluates certain separation criteria, including whether the deliverables have stand-alone value, based on the relevant facts and circumstances for each arrangement. Management then estimates the selling price for each unit of accounting and allocates the arrangement consideration to each unit utilizing the relative selling price method. The allocated consideration for each unit of accounting is recognized over the related obligation period in accordance with the applicable revenue recognition criteria.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

If there are deliverables in an arrangement that are not separable from other aspects of the contractual relationship, they are treated as a combined unit of accounting, with the allocated revenue for the combined unit recognized in a manner consistent with the revenue recognition applicable to the final deliverable in the combined unit. Payments received prior to satisfying the relevant revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and recognized as revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations when the related revenue recognition criteria are met.

Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method

The Company follows ASC 605-28, Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method to evaluate whether each milestone under a license agreement is substantive. This evaluation includes an assessment of whether (i) the consideration is commensurate with either (a) the entity's performance to achieve the milestone, or (b) the enhancement of the value of the delivered item as a result of a specific outcome resulting from the entity's performance to achieve the milestone, (ii) the consideration relates solely to past performance and (iii) the consideration is reasonable relative to all of the deliverables and payment terms within the arrangement. In making this assessment the Company evaluates factors such as the preclinical, clinical, regulatory, commercial and other risks that must be overcome to achieve the respective milestone, the level of effort and investment required and whether the milestone consideration is reasonable relative to all deliverables and payment terms in the arrangement in making this assessment. If a substantive milestone is achieved, the Company would recognize revenue related to the milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone was achieved, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria were met.  Commercial milestones would be accounted for as royalties and recorded as revenue upon achievement of the milestone, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria were met. 

JMC Product Revenue

JMC sells its products directly to wholesalers and specialty pharmacies. JMC recognizes product sales revenue when delivery has occurred, collectability is reasonably assured, and the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, (in accordance with the specific contractual terms). Delivery occurs when title has transferred to the customer, and the customer has assumed the risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue from product sales is recognized net of provisions for estimated cash discounts, allowances, returns, rebates, chargebacks and distribution fees paid to certain of JMC’s wholesale customers. JMC establishes these provisions concurrently with the recognition of product sales revenue. JMC offers cash discounts for prompt payment and allowances are recorded at the time of sale.

JMC allows customers to return product within a specified period of time before and after its expiration date. Provisions for returns are estimated based on historical levels for like products from external data sources, taking into account additional available information such as historical return and exchange levels, and inventory levels in the wholesale distribution channel through its partners. Although the company has limited history with these product sales, the Company believes based on its current level of sales that it can make reasonable estimates of returns based upon external data sources. JMC reviews its methodology and adequacy of the provision for returns on a quarterly basis, adjusting for changes in assumptions, historical internal and external results and business practices, as necessary.

JMC’s co-promotion revenue for Dermasorb HC is based upon prescription volume over an established baseline. 

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity has been performed or when the goods have been received rather than when the payment is made. Upfront and milestone payments due to third parties that perform research and development services on the Company’s behalf will be expensed as services are rendered or when the milestone is achieved.

Research and development costs primarily consist of personnel related expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel, and other related expenses, stock-based compensation, payments made to third parties for license and milestone costs related to in-licensed products and technology, payments made to third party contract research organizations for preclinical and clinical studies, investigative sites for clinical trials, consultants, the cost of acquiring and manufacturing clinical trial materials, and costs associated with regulatory filings, laboratory costs and other supplies.

In accordance with ASC 730-10-25-1, Research and Development, costs incurred in obtaining technology licenses are charged to research and development expense if the technology licensed has not reached commercial feasibility and has no alternative future use. Certain licenses purchased by the Company require substantial completion of research and development and regulatory and marketing approval efforts in order to reach commercial feasibility and have no alternative future use.

Contingencies

The Company records accruals for contingencies and legal proceedings expected to be incurred in connection with a loss contingency when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

If a loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company expenses stock-based compensation to employees over the requisite service period based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the awards and forfeiture rates. For stock-based compensation awards to non-employees, the Company remeasures the fair value of the non-employee awards at each reporting period prior to vesting and finally at the vesting date of the award. Changes in the estimated fair value of these non-employee awards are recognized as compensation expense in the period of change.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock option grants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.

Income Taxes

The Company records income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company establishes a valuation allowance if management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be recovered based on an evaluation of objective verifiable evidence. For tax positions that are more likely than not of being sustained upon audit, the Company recognizes the largest amount of the benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. For tax positions that are not more likely than not of being sustained upon audit, the Company does not recognize any portion of the benefit.

Non-Controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests in consolidated entities represent the component of equity in consolidated entities held by third parties. Any change in ownership of a subsidiary while the controlling financial interest is retained is accounted for as an equity transaction between the controlling and non-controlling interests (see Note 10).

Comprehensive Loss

The Company’s comprehensive loss is equal to its net loss for all periods presented.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

In January 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities. ASU No. 2016-01 requires several targeted changes including that equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The new guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements and other aspects of current U.S. GAAP. Amendments are to be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. ASU No. 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted with the exception of certain targeted provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU No. 2016-02”). ASU No. 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (“ASU No. 2016-08”). The purpose of ASU No. 2016-08 is to clarify the implementation of guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-08 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU No. 2016-08 on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU No. 2016-09”). Under ASU 2016-09, companies will no longer record excess tax benefits and certain tax deficiencies in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”). Instead, they will record all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement and the APIC pools will be eliminated. In addition, ASU No. 2016-09 eliminates the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before companies can recognize them. ASU No. 2016-09 also requires companies to present excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity. Furthermore, ASU No. 2016-09 will increase the amount an employer can withhold to cover income taxes on awards and still qualify for the exception to liability classification for shares used to satisfy the employer’s statutory income tax withholding obligation. An employer with a statutory income tax withholding obligation will now be allowed to withhold shares with a fair value up to the amount of taxes owed using the maximum statutory tax rate in the employee’s applicable jurisdiction(s). ASU No. 2016-09 requires a company to classify the cash paid to a tax authority when shares are withheld to satisfy its statutory income tax withholding obligation as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows. Under current GAAP, it was not specified how these cash flows should be classified. In addition, companies will now have to elect whether to account for forfeitures on share-based payments by (1) recognizing forfeitures of awards as they occur or (2) estimating the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjusting the estimate when it is likely to change, as is currently required. These aspects of ASU No. 2016-09 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted provided that all of the guidance is adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU No. 2016-09 on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (“ASU No. 2016-10”). The new guidance is an update to ASC No. 606 and provides clarity on identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. For public companies, ASU No. 2016-10 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company does not expect ASU No. 2016-10 to have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU No. 2016-13”). ASU No. 2016-13 requires that expected credit losses relating to financial assets be measured on an amortized cost basis and that available-for-sale debt securities be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU No. 2016-13 limits the amount of credit losses to be recognized for available-for-sale debt securities to the amount by which carrying value exceeds fair value and also requires the reversal of previously recognized credit losses if fair value increases. The new standard will be effective on January 1, 2020. Early adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 will be available on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU No. 2016-13 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Origo Acquisition Corporation (formerly CB Pharma Acquisition Corporation)

On June 10, 2016 CB Pharma Acquisition Corp (“CB Pharma”) held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the shareholders approved each of the following items: (i) an amendment to the CB Pharma’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Charter”) to extend the date by which CB Pharma has to consummate a business combination from June 12, 2016 to December 12, 2016 (the “Extension”), (ii) an amendment to the Charter to allow the holders of the CB Pharma’s ordinary shares issued in the their initial public offering to elect to convert their shares into their pro rata portion of the funds held in trust, if the Extension is approved, and (iii) the change of CB Pharma’s name from “CB Pharma Acquisition Corp.” to “Origo Acquisition Corporation” (“Origo”). In connection with the Meeting the Company transferred 1,050,000 of its CB Pharma ordinary shares to Origo. The Company retained ownership of 265,000 Origo shares.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company valued its investment in Origo, a publicly traded company, utilizing the following assumptions: probability of a successful business combination of 34.83%, and no dividend rate, which yielded an underlying value of $5.47 per ordinary share for the private placement shares. The rights and warrants were valued utilizing a binomial-lattice model which assumes a volatility of 25.6%, a risk free rate of return of 1.01% and a strike price of $11.50 per share arriving at a value of $0.55 for each right and $0.13 for a warrant. A 34.83% probability of a successful business combination was applied to the values above arriving at an estimated value of $1.91 for the private placement shares, $0.19 for each right and $0.05 for each warrant. Based upon the valuation, the Company recorded a decrease in fair-value of investment of $1.7 million of which $25,000 represents a realized loss on the investment of the ordinary shares and the remaining $1.675 million was recorded as an unrealized loss. At June 30, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s investment in Origo was, $0.5 million. Additionally, as of May 31, 2016, Origo had net assets of approximately $42.6 million.

The NSC Note matures in 36 months, provided that during the first 24 months the Company can extend the maturity date by six months. No principal amount is due for the first 24 months (or the first 30 months if the maturity date is extended). Thereafter, the NSC Note will be repaid at the rate of 1/12 of the principal amount per month for a period of 12 months. Interest on the note is 8% payable quarterly during the first 24 months (or the first 30 months if the note is extended) and monthly during the last 12 months. NSC, a wholly owned subsidiary of National Holdings, Inc., acted as the sole placement agent for the NSC Note. The Company paid NSC a fee of $0.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2015 in connection with the NSC Note. The Company recorded the fee as a discount to notes payable, long-term on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized it over the life of the NSC Note. The effective interest rate on the NSC Note was approximately 12.4%.

The NSC Note was amended and restated on July 29, 2015 to provide that any time a Fortress subsidiary receives from the Company any proceeds from the NSC Note, the Company may, in its sole discretion, cause the Fortress Company to issue to NSC Biotech Venture Fund I LLC a new promissory note (the “Amended NSC Note”) on identical terms as the NSC Note, giving effect to the passage of time with respect to maturity. The Amended NSC Note will equal the dollar amount of the Fortress Company’s share of the NSC Note and reduce the Company’s obligations under the NSC Note by such amount. The Company will guarantee the Amended NSC Note until the Fortress Company either completes an initial public offering of its securities or raises sufficient equity capital so that it has cash equal to five times the Amended NSC Note. As of June 30, 2016, the Company transferred $2.8 million and $3.0 million, including debt discount, of the NSC Note to Checkpoint and Avenue, respectively, representing Checkpoint’s and Avenue’s pro rata share of the NSC Note. The Company applied the 10% cash flow test pursuant to ASC 470 to calculate the difference between the present value of the amended NSC’s Note’s cash flows and the present value of the original remaining cash flow and concluded that, because the results did not exceed the 10% factor, the debt modification is not considered substantially different. The Company did not, therefore, apply extinguishment accounting, rather accounting for the modification on a prospective basis pursuant to ASC 470.

In connection with the transfer of NSC Note proceeds to a Fortress Company, NSC will receive a warrant to purchase the Fortress Company’s stock equal to 25% of the NSC Note proceeds transferred to that Fortress Company divided by the lowest price at which the Fortress Company sells its equity in its first third party financing. The warrants issued will have a term of 10 years and an exercise price equal to the par value of the Fortress Company’s common stock.

As of June 30, 2016, Avenue recorded approximately $237,000 of debt discount of which $113,500 relates to the Contingently Issuable Warrants issued in connection with the NSC Note, based on its initial fair value (see Note 4). The entire debt discount will be amortized over the life of the note.

Helocyte Convertible Note

On June 30, 2016, Helocyte held the first closing of the sale of convertible promissory notes.  Helocyte sold eleven convertible promissory notes to investors for an aggregate of $1.0 million.  The notes have an initial term of 18 months, which can be extended at the option of the holder, on one or more occasions, for up to 180 days and accrue simple interest at the rate of 5% per annum for the first 12 months and 8% per annum simple interest thereafter.  The notes are guaranteed by Fortress.  The outstanding principal and interest of the notes automatically converts into the type of equity securities sold by Helocyte in the next sale of equity securities in which Helocyte realizes aggregate gross cash proceeds of at least $10.0 million (before commissions or other expenses and excluding conversion of the notes) at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (a) the lowest price per share at which equity securities of Helocyte are sold in such sale less a 33% discount and (b) a per share price based on a pre-offering valuation of $50.0 million divided by the number of common shares outstanding on a fully-diluted basis.  The outstanding principal and interest of the notes may be converted at the option of the holder in any sale of equity securities that does not meet the $10.0 million threshold for automatic conversion using the same methodology.  The notes also automatically convert upon a “Sale” of Helocyte, defined as (a) a transaction or series of related transactions where one or more non-affiliates acquires (i) capital stock of Helocyte or any surviving successor entity possessing the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or (ii) a majority of the outstanding capital stock of Helocyte or the surviving successor entity (b) the sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of Helocyte’s assets or any other transaction resulting in substantially all of Helocyte’s assets being converted into securities of another entity or cash.  Upon a Sale of Helocyte, the outstanding principal and interest of the notes automatically converts into common shares at a price equal to the lesser of (a) a discount to the price per share being paid in the Sale of Helocyte equal to 33% or (b) a conversion price per share based on a pre-sale valuation of $50.0 million divided by the fully-diluted common stock of Helocyte immediately prior to the Sale of Helocyte (excluding the notes).

In the first closing, Helocyte realized net proceeds of $875,000 after paying Aegis Capital Corp., the exclusive placement agent, placement agent fees of $100,000 and Aegis’s legal fees of $25,000.  Additionally, Aegis received a warrant (“Helocyte Warrant”) to purchase the number of shares of Helocyte’s common stock equal to $100,000 divided by the price per share at which any note sold to investors first converts into Helocyte’s common stock.  The Helocyte Warrant has a five-year term and has a per share exercise price equal to 110% of the price per share at which any note sold to investors first converts into Helocyte’s common stock.  The offering remains open and Helocyte may sell up to an aggregate of $5.0 million in convertible notes.

Due to the complexity and number of embedded features within each convertible note and as permitted under accounting guidance, the Company elected to account for the convertible notes and all the embedded features (collectively, the “hybrid instrument”) under the fair value option (see Note 4). 

IDB Letters of Credit

The Company has several letters of credit (“LOC”) with IDB securing rent deposits for lease facilities totaling approximately $1.7 million. Interest paid on the letters of credit is 2%.

The components of non-controlling interests in loss of consolidated entities are as follows:

11. Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding for the period.

Included in common stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2016 are 8,705,137 shares of unvested restricted stock, which are excluded from the weighted average common stock outstanding since its effect would be anti-dilutive.

The Company’s common stock equivalents, including unvested restricted stock, options, and warrants that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. Therefore, the weighted average common stock outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share is the same.

The following shares of potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computations of diluted weighted average shares outstanding, as the effect of including such securities would be anti-dilutive at the end of the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

(Unaudited)

On July 15, 2015, grants of 500,000 shares of common stock in each of Mustang, Checkpoint, Avenue, Coronado SO, Helocyte, JMC and Escala, were made to Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss for their services to the Company under the LTIP. The exercise price of each warrant, which approximates its fair value, was determined by the Company utilizing a discounted cash flow model to determine the weighted market value of invested capital, discounted by a lack of marketability of 44.8%, weighted average cost of capital of 30%, and net of debt utilized. The Company recorded a charge of approximately $2.2 million related to these grants.

On January 1, 2016, the Compensation Committee granted 510,434 shares each to Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss. These equity grants, made in accordance with the LTIP, represent one percent (1%) of total outstanding shares of the Company and were granted in recognition of their performance in 2015. The shares are subject to repurchase by the Company until both of the following conditions are met: (i) the Company’s market capitalization increases by a minimum of $100,000,000, and (ii) the employee is either in the service of the Company as an employee or as a Board member (or both) on the tenth anniversary of the LTIP, or the eligible employee has had an involuntary separation from service (as defined in the LTIP). The Company’s repurchase option on such shares will also lapse upon the occurrence of a corporate transaction (as defined in the LTIP) if the eligible employee is in service on the date of the corporate transaction. Since these awards contain a market condition as defined in ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, the Company valued the award using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The model generated the fair value of the award at the grant date of $2.4 million for both grants, which is amortized over the vesting period, subject to the above performance condition being probable of being met.

Fortress Companies

Checkpoint Therapeutics, Inc.

Checkpoint has a long-term incentive plan. In March 2015, Checkpoint issued a restricted stock grant to Dr. Marasco for services in connection with its Scientific Advisory Board. Dr. Marasco was issued a grant for 1.5 million shares of Checkpoint common stock, of which 25% vested on the first anniversary of the grant date and monthly thereafter for 48 months. Checkpoint valued the restricted stock utilizing a discounted cash flow model to determine the weighted market value of invested capital, discounted by a lack of marketability of 44.8% and a weighted average cost of capital of 30%, resulting in a value of $0.065 per share on grant date. At December 31, 2015, Checkpoint re-measured this non-employee restricted stock utilizing a market approach, based upon a third party financing. Such valuation resulted in a value of $4.39 per share utilizing a volatility of 83%, a risk free rate of return of 1.5% and a term of five years. At June 30, 2016, Checkpoint re-measured this non-employee restricted stock utilizing a market approach, based upon a third party financing. Such valuation resulted in a value of $4.42 per share utilizing a volatility of 83%, a risk free rate of return of 1.35% and a term of five years. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded expense of $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in research and development expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Certain employees and directors of Checkpoint have been awarded restricted stock under Checkpoint’s 2015 Incentive Plan.

The grant issued to Dr. Lu vests 50% in four annual equal tranches of 12.5%, with the remaining 50% vesting upon the achievement of certain performance goals. In connection with these grants, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded approximately $4,000 and $9,000, respectively, as general and administrative expenses and $4,000 and $9,000, respectively, as research and development expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Journey Medical Corporation

In January 2016, JMC granted 290,000 of options to its employees. The fair value of stock options granted was determined on the grant date using assumptions for risk free interest rate, the expected term, expected volatility, and expected dividend yield. The stock price was determined utilizing a discounted cash flow model to determine the weighted market value of invested capital, discounted by a lack of marketability of 44.5%, weighted average cost of capital of 30%, and net of debt utilized, resulting in a value of $0.65 per share. JMC does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future so therefore the expected dividend yield is 0%. The expected term for stock options granted with service conditions represents the average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on the expected term calculated using the approach prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 for “plain vanilla” options. JMC obtained the risk-free interest rate from publicly available data published by the Federal Reserve. The volatility rate was computed based on a comparison of average volatility rates of similar companies. The fair value of options granted in 2016 was estimated using the following assumptions:

Capital Raise

Checkpoint

On February 23, 2016, Checkpoint closed on gross proceeds of $0.6 million, before expenses, in a private placement of shares and warrants to Opus Point Healthcare Fund GP, LLC, a fund managed by OPPM, a related party. The financing involved the sale of units, each consisting of 10,000 shares of common stock and a warrant exercisable for 3,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share, for a total price of $45,000 per unit. The warrants have a five-year term and are only exercisable for cash. Checkpoint issued 126,640 unregistered shares of common stock and 44,324 warrants in connection with this transaction. Due to the absence of a placement agent in this transaction, the net proceeds to, and warrants issued by, Checkpoint were consistent with terms of the December 2015 third-party financing, which included the payment of fees and issuance of warrants to a placement agent.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company determined that the warrants still did not meet the definition of a derivative and continued to qualify for equity recognition.

Founders Agreement and Management Services Agreement with Mustang

Effective March 13, 2015, the Company entered a Founders Agreement with Mustang, which was amended and restated on May 17, 2016 and again on July 26, 2016. The Founders Agreement provides that, in exchange for the time and capital expended in the formation of Mustang and the identification of specific assets the acquisition of which result in the formation of a viable emerging growth life science company, the Company will loan Mustang $2.0 million, representing the up-front fee required to acquire Mustang’s license agreement with COH. The Founders Agreement has a term of 15 years, which upon expiration automatically renews for successive one-year periods unless terminated by the Company or a Change in Control occurs. Concurrently with the second amendment to the Founders Agreement, we entered into an Exchange Agreement whereby we exchanged our 7.2 million Class B Common shares for 7.0 million common shares and 250,000 Class A Preferred shares. Class A Preferred Stock is identical to common stock other than as to voting rights, conversion rights and the PIK Dividend right (as described below). Each share of Class A Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote the number of votes that is equal to one and one-tenth (1.1) times a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (A) the shares of outstanding Mustang common stock and (B) the whole shares of Mustang common stock into which the shares of outstanding Class A Common Stock and the Class A Preferred Stock are convertible and the denominator of which is the number of shares of outstanding Class A Preferred Stock. Thus, the Class A Preferred Stock will at all times constitute a voting majority. Each share of Class A Preferred Stock is convertible, at our option, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Mustang common stock, subject to certain adjustments. As holders of Class A Preferred Stock, we will receive on each March 13 (each a “PIK Dividend Payment Date”) until the date all outstanding Class A Preferred Stock is converted into common stock or redeemed (and the purchase price is paid in full), pro rata per share dividends paid in additional fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock (“PIK Dividends”) such that the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued pursuant to such PIK Dividend is equal to two and one-half percent (2.5%) of Mustang’s fully-diluted outstanding capitalization on the date that is one (1) business day prior to any PIK Dividend Payment Date.

Overview

Since inception on June 28, 2006, we have been a biopharmaceutical company involved in the development of novel immunotherapy agents for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and cancer. In 2015, as part of our growth strategy, we focused on acquiring, developing and commercializing novel pharmaceutical and biotechnology products.  We plan to continue to develop and commercialize products both within Fortress and our subsidiaries, which are sometimes referred to herein as the “Fortress Companies”.  In addition to our internal development programs, we plan to leverage our biopharmaceutical business expertise and drug development capabilities to help the Fortress Companies innovate, develop and commercialize products.  Additionally, we will provide funding and management services to each of the Fortress Companies and, from time to time, we and the Fortress Companies will seek licensing, acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures and/or public and private financings to accelerate and provide additional funding to support their research and development programs.

Business Strategy

Our business approach is designed for maximum flexibility, allowing us to invest in a broad array of new technologies with clinical and commercial potential. It enables us to move quickly to take advantage of time-sensitive opportunities when necessary and provides us with a range of options that allow us to select what we believe is the most advantageous corporate or financial structure for each investment candidate. We seek to acquire and invest in drugs, technologies and operating subsidiaries with high growth potential. We have made significant progress with the above initiatives and believe our novel business approach will provide opportunities to achieve synergies across multiple Fortress Companies.

As of June 30, 2016, we had several consolidated Fortress Companies, some of which contain product licenses, including Avenue Therapeutics, Inc. (“Avenue”), Journey Medical Corporation (“JMC”), Coronado SO Co. (“Coronado SO”), Checkpoint Therapeutics, Inc. (“Checkpoint”), Mustang Bio, Inc. (“Mustang”), Helocyte, Inc. (“Helocyte”), Escala Therapeutics, Inc. (“Escala”), CB Securities Corporation and Cyprium, Inc.

Recent Events

Reportable Business Segments

For presentation purposes, Results of Operations is presented on a detailed revenue and expense basis rather than on a reportable business segment basis. Our operations are subject to wide fluctuations due to our and the Fortress Companies’ early stage of development. The following provides a summary of revenues and expenses for the periods presented.

Results of Operations

General

To date, we have revenues of $2.9 million, consisting of $1.4 million from the sale JMC products and $1.5 million from TGTX, a related party, in connection with certain collaboration arrangements with Checkpoint. At June 30 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of $214.8 million. While we may in the future generate revenue from a variety of sources, including license fees, milestone payments, research and development payments in connection with strategic partnerships and/or product sales, our and our subsidiaries’ current product candidates are at an early stage of development and may never be successfully developed or commercialized. Accordingly, we expect to continue to incur substantial losses from operations for the foreseeable future and there can be no assurance that we will ever generate significant revenues.

We had $0.3 million of costs of goods sold in connection with the sale of JMC branded products.

In connection with JMC’s licensing agreement to distribute its prescription wound cream Luxamend^TM , JMC paid an upfront fee of $50,000, and a $0.3 million upfront fee for the licensing agreement to distribute Ceracade^TM , its emollient for the treatment of various types of dermatitis. JMC commenced the sale of both of these products during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and accordingly commenced the amortization of these costs over their respective three year estimated useful life.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, research and development expenses were approximately $6.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we expensed $2.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in costs related to the acquisition of licenses.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

Total revenues increased $2.2 million or 100% from the three months ended June 30, 2015 to the three months ended June 31, 2016. Revenue from sales of JMC products increased by $1.0 million and revenue from a related party attributed to Checkpoint increased by $1.2 million: $1.0 million from TGTX upon the signing of the sublicense agreement for CK-103 and approximately $0.2 million from TGTX in connection with the reimbursement of costs for the Sponsored Research Agreement with NeuPharma.

Research and development expenses increased $3.9 million, or 163%, from the three months ended June 30, 2015 to the three months ended June 30, 2016. $3.0 million of the increase is attributable to the development of our subsidiary licenses as follows: $0.2 million for Avenue related to their PK study for IV Tramadol; $2.4 million for Checkpoint, related to preclinical and product development activities primarily comprised of (i) $1.0 million related to the Dana-Farber license and (ii) $1.3 million related to NeuPharma programs; $0.1 million related to sponsored research agreement for Helocyte with COH; $0.3 million for Escala for the funding of their research programs with the NIH. Additionally, non-cash compensation expenses increased by $0.8 million from the three months ended June 30, 2015 to the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase is primarily related to $0.3 million increase of expenses related to a stock grant by Checkpoint, $0.3 million related to the new stock grant made to our Senior Vice President of research and development and new stock grants made by Avenue and Helocyte.

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we invested $2.1 million in new research and development programs purchased by Helocyte and Checkpoint compared with approximately, $1.5 million for the acquisition of licenses during the three months ended June 30, 2015, primarily consisting of the following: IV Tramadol for Avenue of $1.0 million, $0.4 million for Uracil Topical Cream and $0.2 million for the licenses for the CMV for Helocyte.

General and administrative expenses increased $5.0 million, or 131%, from the three months ended June 30, 2015 to the three months ended June 30, 2016. The $5.0 million increase is largely due to $1.2 million spent in building of our sales and marketing infrastructure at JMC and the hire of an out-sourced sales force and approximately $1.0 million spent by Checkpoint for legal, professional fees, and salary expense. Professional fees increased by $2.0 million primarily due to an increase in legal fees of $1.5 million of which $0.6 million relates to the tender offer to NHLD and $0.9 million relates to business development activity. Personnel costs increased by $0.5 million as we continued to build our business development capabilities. Stock-compensation expense increased by $0.6 million as a result of grants made by JMC and Checkpoint.

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we restructured our holdings in CB Acquisition Corp, which resulted in a decline in the fair value of our investment of $2.4 million or 149%. Interest expense and financing fees increased by $0.2 million primarily due to financing fees of $0.3 million associated with Helocyte’s convertible notes offset by a decrease in interest expense of $0.1 million.

Non-controlling interests increased $3.6 million, or 1,501%, from the three months ended June 30, 2015 to the three months ended June 30, 2016. This increase reflects the increase in costs related to our subsidiaries.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

Total revenues increased $2.4 million or 478% from the six months ended June 30, 2015 to the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase is due to: (i) an increase in JMC product revenue of $1.4 million primarily related revenue generated from the sale of JMC’s two branded products: Luxamend^TM and Ceracade^TM and (ii) $1.0 million in revenue primarily related to Checkpoint’s sublicense arrangement with TGTX .

Research and development expenses increased $10.0 million, or 247%, from the six months ended June 30, 2015 to the six months ended June 30, 2016. $7.8 million of the increase is attributable to the development of our subsidiary licenses as follows: $0.6 million for Avenue related to its PK study for IV Tramadol; $3.9 million for Checkpoint, related to preclinical and product development activities primarily comprised of $1.6 million related to Dana-Farber programs and $2.0 million related to Checkpoint’s agreement with NeuPharma; $2.1 million for Helocyte related to its sponsored research agreement with COH; $0.5 million for Mustang related to its sponsored research agreement with COH; $0.6 million for Escala related to its funding of research with the NIH. In addition, expenses related to CNDO -109 increased by $0.2 million, as a result of a milestone payment due to University College of London for completion of the Phase 1 study offset by a decline in spending of $0.1 million for CNDO - 201. Additionally, non-cash compensation expenses increased by $1.9 million from the six months ended June 30, 2015 from the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase is primarily related to the $1.2 million of expenses related to the stock grant by Checkpoint to a consultant and $0.6 million related to the new stock grant made to our Senior Vice President of research and development.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we invested $2.0 million in a new license acquisition by Checkpoint from Jubilant for compounds that inhibit BRD4, a member of the BET domain for cancer treatment, or CK-103, compared with $9.0 million for the acquisition of licenses during the six months ended June 30, 2015, including $3.0 million for Avenue for IV Tramadol, $2.0 million for preclinical and product development activities, $2.2 million for Mustang for CAR-T from the City of Hope and $1.6 million for Coronado SO for Uracil Topical Cream.

General and administrative expenses increased $9.4 million, or 129%, from the six months ended June 30, 2015 to the six months ended June 30, 2016. This increase is largely due to a $2.3 million increase in spending related to building the sales and marketing infrastructure at JMC including the hiring of an out-sourced sales force and a $1.5 million increase in spending primarily related to Checkpoint’s primarily salary and legal expenses. Professional fees increased by $3.5 million primarily due to an increase in legal fees of $2.6 million related to business development outreach as well as approximately $1.0 million in costs related to our acquisition of NHLD. Rent expense increased by $0.8 million upon the commencement of our lease for our new offices in New York City. An additional increase of $1.0 million is related to an increase in headcount primarily attributed to the building of our business development infrastructure. Stock-compensation expense increased by $1.0 million as a result of a stock grants made by JMC and Checkpoint employees.

Interest expense and financing fees increased $0.5 million, or 68%, from the six months ended June 30, 2015 to the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily due to $0.3 million of fees related to the Helocyte debt offering.

Non-controlling interests increased $7.6 million, or 1,054%, from the six months ended June 30, 2015 to the six months ended June 30, 2016. This increase reflects the increase in costs related to our subsidiaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We may require additional financing to fully develop and prepare regulatory filings, obtain regulatory approvals for our existing and new product candidates, fund operating losses, and, if deemed appropriate, establish or secure through third parties manufacturing for our potential products, sales and marketing capabilities. We have funded our operations to date primarily through the sale of equity and debt securities. We believe that our current cash is sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months. A failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategies. We may seek funds through equity or debt financings, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate sources, or through other sources of financing. Adequate additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available to us when needed, we may be required to delay, curtail or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs and, potentially, delay our growth strategy.

Cash Flows for the Six Months June 30, 2016 and 2015

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities increased $10.9 million from the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to a $33.0 million net loss, of which $19.0 million relates to our subsidiaries. This increase is partially offset by $2.1 million related to the acquired licenses, $5.9 million of stock-based compensation expenses and $1.8 million of change in fair value of investments.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $3.1 million from the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease is primarily due to a $6.6 million decrease in licenses being acquired in 2016, offset by the build-out of the New York City office of $4.3 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $9.4 million of net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015. During the first quarter of 2016, we paid-off $2.8 million of the NSC Note, from which the proceeds of $10.0 million were received in February of 2015. In the second quarter we received $0.9 million in net proceeds from the Helocyte convertible debt.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments outside of the ordinary course of business from those disclosed on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may result from the change in value of financial instruments due to fluctuations in their market price. Market risk is inherent in all financial instruments. Market risk may be exacerbated in times of trading illiquidity when market participants refrain from transacting in normal quantities and/or at normal bid-offer spreads. Our exposure to market risk is directly related to derivatives, debt and equity linked instruments related to our financing activities.

Our assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars. Consequently, we have not considered it necessary to use foreign currency contracts or other derivative instruments to manage changes in currency rates. We do not now, nor do we plan to, use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. However, these circumstances might change.

The primary quantifiable market risk associated with our financial instruments is sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Interest rate risk represents the potential loss from adverse changes in market interest rates. We use an interest rate sensitivity simulation to assess our interest rate risk exposure. For purposes of presenting the possible earnings effect of a hypothetical, adverse change in interest rates over the 12-month period from our reporting date, we assume that all interest rate sensitive financial instruments will be impacted by a hypothetical, immediate 100 basis point increase in interest rates as of the beginning of the period. The sensitivity is based upon the hypothetical assumption that all relevant types of interest rates that affect our results would increase instantaneously, simultaneously and to the same degree. We do not believe that our cash and equivalents have significant risk of default or illiquidity.

The sensitivity analyses of the interest rate sensitive financial instruments are hypothetical and should be used with caution. Changes in fair value based on a 1% or 2% variation in an estimate generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in the estimate to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular estimate on the fair value of financial instruments is calculated independent of changes in any other estimate; in practice, changes in one factor may result in changes in another factor, which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities. In addition, the sensitivity analyses do not consider any action that we may take to mitigate the impact of any adverse changes in the key estimates.

Based on our analysis, as of June 30, 2016, the effect of a 100+/- basis point change in interest rates on the value of our financial instruments and the resultant effect on our net loss are considered immaterial.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of June 30, 2016, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent quarter with respect to our operations, which materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 1A.   Risk Factors

Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the consolidated financial statements and the related notes, before deciding to invest in shares of our Common Stock. If any of the following risks were to materialize, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future growth prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the market price of our Common Stock could decline and you could lose part of or all of your investment in our Common Stock.

Risks Related to our Growth Strategy

If we acquire companies in the future, they could prove difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value, and adversely affect our operating results and the value of our Common Stock.

As part of our growth strategy, we might acquire, enter into joint ventures with, or make investments in other companies. Acquisitions, such as our proposed acquisition of National Holdings Corporation (“NHLD”) and investments involve numerous risks, including:

If we fail to properly evaluate acquisitions or investments, we might not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions or investments, we might incur costs in excess of what we anticipate, and management resources and attention might be diverted from other necessary or valuable activities.

If all or substantially all of the National Holdings Corporation stockholders tender their shares in connection with our proposed acquisition of National Holdings Corporation, our liquidity may be strained requiring us to seek additional sources of financing which might not be available on a timely or favorable basis and could, as a result, significantly curtail or delay certain aspects of our business and materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

On April 27, 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with FBIO Acquisition, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Fortress (“Acquisition Sub”), and NHLD providing for the acquisition of NHLD by Acquisition Sub (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, we agreed to cause Acquisition Sub to commence a tender offer for all the issued and outstanding shares of NHLD’s common stock at a purchase price of $3.25 per share. As of May 16, 2016, NHLD had 12,440,035 shares outstanding. If all or substantially all of the NHLD stockholders tender shares to Acquisition Sub, payment may strain our liquidity, which in turn could have material adverse effects on our business, including:
