Annual Report

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSOverview

Until the end of 2008, we were engaged in the business of developing and selling clinical and research assay products and out-licensing certain therapeutic compounds addressing conditions and diseases associated with oxidative stress. During 2008, we lost our majority-owned subsidiary, BioCheck, Inc., which was engaged in the production of enzyme immunoassay diagnostic kits for clinical laboratories, and in December 2008 we sold substantially all of the assets of our research assay product line to Percipio Biosciences, Inc. Commencing in 2009, our focus shifted from the clinical and research assay business to developing and marketing nutraceutical products in the field of oxidative stress reduction, with a focus on products that include EGT� as a component. We conducted limited operations, and had limited revenues from these products in 2013 and in 2014. In July 2014, we began pursuing the acquisition of novel therapeutics from various educational and research institutions.

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we have incurred an accumulated deficit of $112,956,000 through December 31, 2014. Our cash holdings at December 31, 2014 were $855,000 and we had a working capital deficit of $28,946,000. Because our lack of funds, we will have to raise additional capital in order to fund our selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses. There are no assurances that we will be able to raise the funds necessary to maintain our operations or to implement our business plan. The consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event we cannot continue our operations.

Recent Developments

License Agreements

Pursuant to a patent license agreement with the ID4, dated December 31, 2014, we received a non-exclusive, worldwide license to certain intellectual property, including intellectual property related to treating a p62-mediated disease (e.g., multiple myeloma).

On March 10, 2015, Oxis licensed exclusive rights to three antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) that MCIT will prepare for further evaluation by Oxis as prospective therapeutics for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer, and multiple myeloma and associated osteolytic bone disease. Under the terms of the agreement, MCIT will develop three ADC product candidates which contain Oxis’ lead drug candidates OXS-2175 and OXS-4235.

We did not actively market any products in 2014 as we began the development of biotech products.

Cost of product revenues

The following table presents the changes in cost of product revenues from fiscal 2013 to fiscal 2014:

                                                       Increase from 2013
                             2014         2013               Amount
Cost of product revenues   $ 57,000     $ 226,000     $            169,000

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased in fiscal 2014 by $1,465,000 to $2,400,000 compared to $935,000 in fiscal 2013. The increase is primarily the result of an increase in stock based compensation and consulting fees related to the development of our biotech products.


Change in value of warrant and derivative liabilities

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded an expense as a result of an increase in the fair market value of outstanding warrants and beneficial conversion features of $15,963,000, compared to income of $1,425,000 during the year ended December 31, 2013. We recorded a loss as a result of an increase in the fair market value of outstanding debt and equity securities accounted for as derivative liabilities.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $5,146,000 compared to $1,196,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase of $3,950,000 is due to additional notes payable incurred in 2014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $855,000. This cash and cash equivalents is in part the result of the proceeds from borrowings in 2014. On the same day we had total current assets of $882,000, and a working capital deficit of $28,946,000. Our cash holdings as of the date of this Annual Report are sufficient to fund our administrative expenses for the next 12 months. Since we are successful in attracting certain assets for our subsidiary Oxis Biotech, we expect our administrative expenses to approach $5,000,000 on an annualized basis. We have obtained over $2,000,000 of additional funding through a private placement of convertible debentures with attached warrants to certain investors who have shown an interest in the Company in the past and plan to raise additional funds in 2015.

Critical Accounting Policies

We consider the following accounting policies to be critical given they involve estimates and judgments made by management and are important for our investors’ understanding of our operating results and financial condition.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements contained in this report include the accounts of OXIS International, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition

Product Revenue

The Company manufactures, or has manufactured on a contract basis, fine chemicals and nutraceutical products, which are its primary products to be sold to customers. Revenue from the sale of its products, including shipping fees, will be recognized when title to the products is transferred to the customer which usually occurs upon shipment or delivery, depending upon the terms of the sales order and when collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from sales to distributors of its products will be recognized, net of allowances, upon delivery of product to the distributors. According to the terms of individual distributor contracts, a distributor may return product up to a maximum amount and under certain conditions contained in its contract. Allowances are calculated based upon historical data, current economic conditions and the underlying contractual terms.

Long-Lived Assets

Our long-lived assets include property, plant and equipment, capitalized costs of filing patent applications and goodwill and other assets. We evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Estimates of future cash flows and timing of events for evaluating long-lived assets for impairment are based upon management’s judgment. If any of our intangible or long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over its fair value.


Applicable long-lived assets are amortized or depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives, the estimated period that the assets will generate revenue, or the statutory or contractual term in the case of patents. Estimates of useful lives and periods of expected revenue generation are reviewed periodically for appropriateness and are based upon management’s judgment. Goodwill and other assets are not amortized.

Certain Expenses and Liabilities

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates related to certain expenses and accrued liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Derivative Financial Instruments

During the normal course of business, from time to time, we issue warrants as part of a debt or equity financing. We do not enter into any derivative contracts for speculative purposes. We recognize all derivatives as assets or liabilities measured at fair value with changes in fair value of derivatives reflected as current period income or loss unless the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting and are accounted for as such. During fiscal 2014 and 2013, we issued warrants to purchase 331,288,836 and 51,666,000 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with equity transactions. In accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock” (“ASC 815-40”), the value of these warrants is required to be recorded as a liability, as the holders have an option to put the warrants back to us in certain events, as defined.

Inflation

We believe that inflation has not had a material adverse impact on our business or operating results during the periods presented.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2014.
