NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Altimmune, Inc., headquartered in Gaithersburg, Maryland, United States, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, Altimmune) is a clinical
stage biopharmaceutical company incorporated in 1997 under the laws of the State of Delaware. Altimmune is focused on discovering and developing immunotherapies and vaccines to address significant unmet medical needs. Since its inception, Altimmune
has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, and raising capital, and has financed its operations through the issuance of common and convertible preferred
stock, long-term debt, and proceeds from research grants and government contracts. Altimmune has not generated any revenues from the sale of any products to date, and there is no assurance of any future revenues from product sales.
Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the Merger Agreement) dated January 18, 2017, PharmAthene, Inc.
(PharmAthene), its wholly owned acquisition subsidiaries Mustang Merger Sub Corp I Inc. (Merger Sub Corp) and Mustang Merger Sub II LLC (Merger Sub LLC) agreed to acquire 100% of the outstanding capital stock of
Altimmune in a reverse triangular merger and reorganization pursuant to section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Mergers)(Note 3).
As
a condition for the Mergers, in January 2017, prior to the Mergers, Altimmune entered into a Convertible Promissory Note Purchase Agreement (the Note Agreement) for the private placement of $8.6 million of 6% convertible notes (the
Notes) (See Notes 1 and 7) to be issued in two separate closings. The initial closing dated March 9, 2017 resulted in $3,150,630 of gross proceeds. The initial closing also included $196,496 of certain existing outstanding notes
payable and $881,044 of certain accrued expenses that were modified and became a component of the Notes on March 9, 2017. The second closing of $5.0 million is conditioned upon certain events, but no later than 135 days after the effective
date of the Mergers. In connection with the Notes, Altimmune issued warrants to purchase 49,776 shares of Altimmunes common stock to certain noteholders, with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The warrants are classified as permanent
equity (see Note 9).
On May 4, 2017, Altimmune and PharmAthene closed the Mergers in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. Upon the
closing of the Mergers, (i) Merger Sub Corp merged with and into Altimmune, with Altimmune remaining as the surviving corporation; (ii) Altimmune then merged with and into Merger Sub LLC, with Merger Sub LLC (renamed as Altimmune
LLC) remaining as the surviving entity; and (iii) PharmAthene was renamed as Altimmune, Inc. Upon closing of the Mergers, all equity instruments of Altimmune were exchanged for shares of PharmAthene common stock (see Note 3).
Altimmune and PharmAthene and its subsidiaries are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Company or we.
The accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Altimmunes audited consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4/A which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2017. In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements, and these condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year 2017 or any future years
or periods.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets
and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2. Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. We have experienced
recurring losses in past years and incurred a net loss of $7,689,164 and used $11,149,228 in cash to fund operations during the six months ended June 30, 2017, and had an accumulated deficit of $38,948,613 as of June 30, 2017. We expect to
incur additional losses in the future in connection with our research and development activities. Since inception, we have financed our activities principally from the issuance of equity and debt securities and the receipt of proceeds from research
grants and government contracts.
4
The Companys ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional debt
and equity capital. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of the recorded assets or the classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
As capital resources are consumed to fund our research and development activities, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our plan of operations. In order
to address our capital needs, including our planned clinical trials, in addition to the Note Agreement and the private placement described in Notes 1 and 7, we must continue to actively pursue additional equity or debt financing.
Adequate financing opportunities might not be available to us, when and if needed, on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional
financing in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms under such circumstances, our operating results and prospects will be adversely affected.
As more
fully described in Note 3, in January 2017, in connection with the Mergers, Altimmune entered into the Note Agreement for the private placement of $8.6 million of 6% convertible notes (the Notes). The combination of the net proceeds
from the Notes, cash assumed from the Mergers, expected tax refunds, committed financing, and revenue from our government sponsored contracts will be insufficient to fund our operations and research and development efforts for at least twelve months
from the expected issuance date of our June 2017 financial statements.
3. Business Combination
On May 4, 2017, we closed the Mergers with PharmAthene. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, PharmAthene issued 0.749106 (the share
exchange ratio) of a share of PharmaAthene common stock for each share of Altimmunes $0.0001 par value common stock (common stock) outstanding as of the closing date. All historical share and per share information including
common and preferred stock, common stock warrants, and stock options, has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the share exchange ratio. In addition, Altimmunes stock options and warrants were also replaced with options and
warrants to purchase PharmAthenes common stock at the same exchange ratio of 0.749106 share. Immediately prior to closing, 599,285 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock (preferred stock) converted into Altimmune common
stock on a
1-for-1
basis. Due to the preferred stock having unique terms and conditions, preferred stock was continued to be presented separately on our balance sheet
prior to conversion. In addition, outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Notes converted into 316,735 shares of Altimmune common stock. Further, 39,758 shares of Altimmune common stock were issued pursuant to the accelerated vesting of
restricted stock, and 660,715 shares of Altimmune common stock were issued as a result of warrant exercises, both in accordance with their original terms. Upon the closing of the Mergers, Altimmune common stock totaling 8,539,263 shares were
exchanged for 8,539,263 shares of PharmAthene common stock.
Although PharmAthene was the issuer of the shares and considered the legal acquirer in the
Mergers, following the closing, shareholders of Altimmune held 58.2% of the equity interest of the combined entity and assumed control of the combined entity. As a result, the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse merger, with Altimmune
considered the accounting acquirer, and the assets and liabilities of PharmAthene have been recorded at their estimated fair value. The unadjusted purchase price allocated to PharmAthenes assets and liabilities was estimated to be $44,742,737
as of the closing date and consisted of the shares of the combined company retained by PharmAthene shareholders, and the estimated fair value of vested PharmAthene stock options and warrants which remained outstanding as of the closing date. Also at
the closing, 7,569 outstanding unvested options of PharmAthene with an estimated fair value of $15,173 remained subject to vesting and service requirements. These unvested options will be recorded as operating expense in future periods as the
services are delivered and the options vest.
Headquartered in Annapolis, Maryland, PharmAthene was incorporated in Delaware in April 2005. PharmAthene
was a biodefense company engaged in Phase II clinical trials in developing a next generation anthrax vaccine. The next generation vaccine is intended to have more rapid time to protection, fewer doses for protection and less stringent requirements
for temperature controlled storage and handling than the currently used vaccine. The Mergers enable the combined company to
5
become a fully integrated, commercially-focused immunotherapeutics company with the ability to create more value than either company could achieve individually. As a publicly listed entity, the
Mergers also provide the Company with additional capital financing alternatives to support the combined entitys planned research and development activities.
In addition to the operating assets and liabilities of PharmAthene, Altimmune also acquired PharmAthenes tax attributes, which primarily consisted of a
tax refund receivable and approximately $1 million of net operating losses which were limited under Section 382 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and were fully reserved, which begin to expire in 2023. We recorded a deferred tax liability related
to future tax benefits arising from an in-process research and development asset (IPR&D) acquired in the Mergers. Goodwill generated from the Mergers is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
For accounting purposes, the historical financial statements of Altimmune have not been adjusted to reflect the Mergers, other than adjustments to the capital
structure of Altimmune to reflect the historical capital structure of PharmAthene. No other adjustments to Altimmunes assets and liabilities have been made as a result of the Mergers. In connection with the Mergers, Altimmune incurred
$1,673,695 of transaction costs, which have been expensed as incurred in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

We relied on significant level 3 unobservable inputs to estimate the fair value of acquired IPR&D assets using
managements estimate of future revenue and expected profitability of the products after taking into account an estimate of future expenses necessary to bring the products to completion. These projected cash flows were then discounted to their
present values using a discount rate of 23%, which was considered commensurate with the risks and stages of development of the products.
The operating
activities of PharmAthene have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the Mergers. For the period from May 4, 2017 to June 30, 2017, revenues and net loss of PharmAthene included in
the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements aggregated $427,522 and $447,914, respectively. The following unaudited pro forma information for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 gives effect to the acquisition of

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Segment information
Operating segments are identified as
components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer, in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing
performance. We view our operations and manage our business in one operating segment, the research and development of immunotherapies and vaccines.
Business combination
We use our best estimates and
assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the tangible and
intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. Our estimates are inherently
uncertain and subject to refinement. During the measurement
period, which may be up to one year from the
acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. In
addition, uncertain tax positions
and
tax-related
valuation allowances are initially established in connection with a business combination as of the
acquisition date. Our management collects
information and reevaluates these estimates and assumptions
quarterly and records any adjustments to our preliminary estimates to goodwill during the measurement period. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final
determination of the fair value of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent
adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Amounts paid for acquisitions are allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
The Company allocates the purchase price in excess of net tangible assets acquired to identifiable intangible assets, including purchased IPR&D assets. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based on detailed valuations that use
information and assumptions provided by management. We allocate any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired to goodwill.
Our IPR&D assets represent the estimated fair value as of the acquisition date of substantive
in-process
projects
that have not reached technological feasibility. The primary basis for determining technological feasibility of these projects is obtaining regulatory approval.
The valuation of IPR&D assets is determined using the discounted cash flow method. In determining the value of IPR&D assets, management considers,
among other factors, the stage of completion of the projects, the technological feasibility of the projects, whether the projects have an alternative future use and the estimated residual cash flows that could be generated from the various projects
and technologies over their respective projected economic lives. The discount rate used is determined at the time of acquisition and includes a rate of return which accounts for the time value of money, as well as risk factors that reflect the
economic risk that the cash flows projected may not be realized.
Impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill
We evaluate our long-lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such
assets may not be recoverable. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed by comparing the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset to its carrying value. We test goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of each year,
or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU)
No. 2017-04,
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
(ASU
2017-04),
which provides for a
one-step
quantitative test. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the amount of goodwill impairment is the excess of the reporting units carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill
allocated to the reporting unit. We consider multiple methods including both market and income approaches to determine fair value of our one reporting unit, including fair value estimated based on our market capitalization (a level 1 input) as of or
near the testing date, adjusted for an estimated control premium.
7
From the date of the Mergers through June 30, 2017, we experienced a decline in the trading price of our
common stock. As of June 30, 2017, our one reporting unit had an estimated average market capitalization through June 30, 2017, excluding an estimated control premium, of approximately $50.9 million as compared to the carrying value of the
reporting unit of $76.0 million, which is an impairment indicator. We performed an interim impairment test on our goodwill and a qualitative assessment of our long-lived assets as of June 30, 2017. Based on the result of the goodwill
impairment test, the carrying value of the Companys net equity at June 30, 2017 of $76.0 million fell within the high end of an estimated range of control-adjusted fair value. A hypothetical downward adjustment of 10% of the top end
of the range of our control premium would have resulted in a potential impairment of our goodwill of $2.2 million. We have concluded that our goodwill and long-lived assets were not impaired at June 30, 2017 and no impairment adjustments
were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2017. We will continue to evaluate our goodwill for impairment based on factors including the overall movements of our market capitalization. Any sustained declines in our stock price from the June
30, 2017 level could result in a future impairment and the overall amount of impairment loss could be material.
Our IPR&D assets are currently
non-amortizing.
Until such time as the projects are either completed or abandoned, we test those assets for impairment annually by comparing the fair value of such assets to their carrying value. On an interim
basis, we consider qualitative factors which could be indicative of impairment; these factors include the current project status, forecasted changes in the timing or amounts required to complete the project, forecasted changes in the future cash
flows to be generated by the completed products, and changes to other market based assumptions, such as discount rates. Upon completion or abandonment, the value of the IPR&D assets will be amortized to expense or the anticipated useful life of
the developed products, if completed, or charged to expense when abandoned if no alternative future use exists. As of June 30, 2017, the projects continue to progress as originally anticipated, and no significant changes to the timing or amount
of cash flows or any other market assumptions appears to have occurred, and management concluded that the IPR&D assets are not impaired.
Income
Taxes
We account for income taxes using the asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of future tax benefits or liabilities on the
temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of our assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. We also recognize a tax
benefit from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the position is sustainable based on its technical merits.
Pursuant to federal and state tax regulations with respect to carryback periods of certain net operating losses (NOLs), in 2017, as a result of
the Mergers, we anticipate that we will be able to carryback 2017 NOLs to 2016, which we expect will allow us to recover previously paid federal and state income taxes by PharmAthene of up to approximately $10 million. These anticipated refunds
generated through June 30, 2017, are included as a component of tax refund receivable on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2017 and an income tax benefit during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
Stock Compensation
We adopted FASBs ASU No.
2016-09,
Compensation Stock Compensation
(ASU 2016-09) on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU
2016-09
did not have a material impact on our
financial statements. We elected to adopt the cash flow presentation of the excess tax benefits prospectively, commencing with our cash flow statement for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We have elected to continue to estimate the number
of stock-based awards expected to vest, rather than electing to account for forfeitures as they occur to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized in each period. There was no impact to our computation of dilutive EPS as all
securities were considered anti-dilutive.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU
No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(ASU
2014-09),
as amended, which amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous industry specific
requirements. ASU
2014-09,
as amended, implements a
five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition
that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. ASU
2014-09,
as amended, also requires
enhanced
disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from
contracts with customers. Other major provisions include ensuring the time value of money is considered in the
transaction price, and
allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are
resolved in certain circumstances. ASU
2014-09,
as amended, is effective for reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, but not before December 15, 2016. Entities can transition
to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. We are
currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption of ASU
2014-09,
as amended, may have on our financial statements. As the majority of our revenues relate to research grants and government
contracts, we do not expect the adoption of ASU
2014-09,
as amended, will have a material impact on our financial statements.
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,
Leases
(ASU
2016-02).
ASU
2016-02
requires a lessee to separate the lease components from the
non-lease
components in a contract and recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make
lease payments (the lease liability) and a
right-of-use
asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. It also aligns lease accounting for
lessors with the revenue recognition guidance in ASU
2014-09.
ASU
2016-02
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods
within those fiscal years, and is to be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. We do not expect the adoption of ASU
2016-02
will have a material
impact on our financial statements.

5. Net Loss Per Share
Because we have reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders for all periods presented, basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common
stockholders are the same for all periods presented. For periods presented, all preferred stock, unvested restricted stock, common stock warrants, and stock options have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares
outstanding because such securities would have an antidilutive impact.

7. Notes Payable
As a
condition for the Mergers as described in Note 3, Altimmune entered into the Note Agreement on January 18, 2017. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6% per annum, compounded annually. On February 28, 2017, as part of the initial closing,
$196,496 of the Notes were issued upon the conversion of outstanding principal of certain prior notes payable, and $881,044 of the Notes were issued upon the conversion of certain outstanding accrued expenses. The conversion of the prior notes
payable into the Notes was accounted for as a modification with no resulting gains or losses being recognized. On March 9, 2017, the remainder of the initial closing of the Notes was issued for an aggregate of $3,150,630 in gross proceeds. In
connection with the issuance of the Notes, we granted warrants for the purchase of up to 49,776 shares of our common stock to certain noteholders. The allocated fair value of the warrants on the issuance date of $566,793 was accounted for as a debt
issuance discount to be accreted over the term of the Notes using the interest method.
All outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Notes were
converted into our common stock upon the close of the Mergers. As of May 4, 2017, the close of the Mergers, outstanding principal and accrued interest, net of unamortized discount and deferred financing costs totaling $3,645,424 were converted
into 316,735 shares of our common stock. Interest expense incurred on the Notes prior to conversion totaled $83,207 and $136,629 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
