ORCHARD THERAPEUTICS PLC
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. Nature of the Business
Orchard Therapeutics plc (the “Company”) is a global gene therapy leader dedicated to transforming the lives of people affected by rare diseases through the development of innovative, potentially curative gene therapies. The Company’s ex vivo autologous gene therapy approach utilizes genetically modified blood stem cells and seeks to correct the underlying cause of disease in a single administration. The Company’s gene therapy product candidate pipelines span multiple therapeutic areas where the disease burden on children, families and caregivers is immense and current treatment options are limited or do not exist.
The Company is a public limited company incorporated pursuant to the laws of England and Wales. The Company has American Depositary Shares (ADSs) registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and has been listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market since October 31, 2018. The Company’s ADSs each represent one ordinary share of the Company.
The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to development-stage companies in the biotechnology industry. There can be no assurance that the Company’s research and development will be successfully initiated or completed, that adequate protection for the Company’s technology will be obtained, that any products developed will obtain necessary government regulatory approval or that any products, if approved, will be commercially viable. The Company operates in an environment of rapid scientific and technological innovation and substantial competition from pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. In addition, the Company is dependent upon the services of its employees, consultants and service providers. Even if the Company’s product development efforts are successful in gaining regulatory approval, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will realize significant revenue from product sales.
The Company is subject to risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, including the United States, United Kingdom and Italy where the Company operates, have placed significant restrictions on travel. While some COVID-19 restrictions have been relaxed, limitations on travel and other social distancing measures have had an effect on the Company’s preclinical and clinical activities and regulatory timelines. Commercial activity associated with the Company’s EMA-approved gene therapy for ADA-SCID, Strimvelis®, had been postponed by the treatment site but resumed in June 2020. Any prolonged material disruptions to the Company’s employees, suppliers, contract manufacturers, vendors, patients, government sponsored funding programs or the Company’s marketable securities could impact operating results and could lead to impairments. To date the Company has recorded impairments on long-lived assets that are due to a combination of a corporate restructuring and COVID-19 market impacts (see Note 8). The capital markets have experienced significant volatility as a result of the pandemic and the Company’s ability to access the capital markets in the future could be impacted if disruptions in the capital markets continue.
Through June 30, 2020, the Company funded its operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred shares and ADSs in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) and a subsequent follow-on offering, as well as with certain grant and reimbursement payments and a drawdown on its credit facility, described in note 6 below. The Company has incurred recurring losses since its inception. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $
The Company will seek additional funding through private or public equity financings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements, or any combination thereof. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Company may not be able to enter into collaborations or other arrangements. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company’s shareholders and ADS holders. The future viability of the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations. If the Company is unable to obtain funding, the Company will be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of its research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospects, or the Company may be unable to continue operations. Although management continues to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to the Company to fund continuing operations, if at all.
