Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 1—SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

a) Ayala Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in November 2017. The Company is a clinical stage oncology company dedicated to developing and commercializing small molecule therapeutics for patients suffering from rare and aggressive cancers, primarily in genetically defined patient populations. The Company’s current portfolio of product candidates, AL101 and AL102, target the aberrant activation of the Notch pathway with gamma secretase inhibitors.

b) In 2017, the Company entered into an exclusive worldwide license agreement with respect to AL101 and AL102.

c) The Company’s lead product candidates, AL101 and AL102, have completed preclinical and Phase 1 studies. A Phase 2 trial (ACCURACY) for AL101 in patients with recurrent/metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma (“R/M ACC”) bearing Notch-activating mutations is ongoing.

d) The Company has a wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary, Ayala-Oncology Israel Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), which was incorporated in November 2017.

e) Since inception, the Company has devoted its primary efforts to raising capital and research and development activities and has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations. From its inception through June 30, 2020, all of the Company’s financial support has been provided primarily from the sale of its convertible preferred and common stock.

The Company previously identified conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of the completion of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) in May 2020, the Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term restricted bank deposits as of June 30, 2020 will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second half of 2022. The Company has based this estimated on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and it may use its available capital resources sooner than it currently expects. Future additional funding may not be available on terms available to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient funding, it could be required to delay its development efforts, limit activities and reduce research and development costs, which could adversely affect its business prospects.

Initial Public Offering and Related Transactions

On May 12, 2020, the Company completed the sale of shares of its common stock in its IPO. In connection with the IPO, the Company issued and sold 3,940,689 shares of common stock, including 274,022 shares associated with the partial exercise on June 4, 2020 of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, at a price to the public of $15.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $52.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. All shares issued and sold were registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form

S-1

(File

No. 333-236942),

as amended, declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 7, 2020.

In connection with the IPO, the Company effected a

one-for-two

reverse stock split of its common stock which became effective on May 4, 2020. Upon the closing of the IPO, all of the outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock automatically converted into an aggregate of 3,715,222 shares of common stock. Subsequent to the closing of the IPO, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s final prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act on May 11, 2020 (the “Prospectus”) in connection with its IPO. The comparative balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. Except as noted below, the Company’s significant accounting policies have not changed materially from those included in Note 2 of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in our Prospectus.

Net Loss per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share (“LPS”) are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), outstanding for each period.

The calculation of diluted LPS does not include 3,679,778 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and 3,750,674 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 528,415 and 698,361 options outstanding to purchase common stock as of June 30, 2019 and 2020 respectively.

Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU

2016-02—Leases,

requiring the recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. The standard: (a) clarifies the definition of a lease; (b) requires a dual approach to lease classification similar to current lease classifications; and

(c)causes lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet as a lease liability with a corresponding

right-of-use

asset for leases with a lease-term of more than 12 months. The standard is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on its financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU

No. 2018-07

Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which is intended to reduce the cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for nonemployee share based payment. The standard expands the scope of Topic 718, (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. The standard is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and nonpublic entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted but no earlier than a company’s adoption date of Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on its financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU

No. 2016-13

(Topic 326), Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The guidance will be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU

2016-13

will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Revenues

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2020

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenues

NOTE 2—REVENUES

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which applies to all contracts with customers. Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the entity performs the following five steps:

(i)

identify the contract(s) with a customer;

(ii)

identify the performance obligations in the contract;

(iii)

determine the transaction price;

(iv)

allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(v)

recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within the contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct.

Customer option to acquire additional goods or services gives rise to a performance obligation in the contract only if the option provides a material right to the customer that it would not receive without entering into that contract.

In a contract with multiple performance obligations, the Company must develop estimates and assumptions that require judgment to determine the underlying stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation, which determines how the transaction price is allocated among the performance obligations.

The Company evaluates each performance obligation to determine if it can be satisfied at a point in time or over time.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

In December 2018, the Company entered into an evaluation, option and license agreement (the “Novartis Agreement”) with Novartis International Pharmaceutical Limited (“Novartis”) for which the Company is paid for its research and development costs.

The Company concluded that there is one distinct performance obligation under the Novartis Agreement: Research and development services, an obligation which is satisfied over time.

Revenue associated with the research and development services in the amount of $2.0 million was recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The Company concluded that progress towards completion of the research and development performance obligation related to the Novartis Agreement is best measured in an amount proportional to the expenses relative to the total estimated expenses. The Company periodically reviews and updates its estimates, when appropriate, which may adjust revenue recognized for the period. The transaction price to be recognized as revenue under the Novartis Agreement consists of the reimbursable research and development costs.

- Definition

The entire disclosure of revenue from contract with customer to transfer good or service and to transfer nonfinancial asset. Includes, but is not limited to, disaggregation of revenue, credit loss recognized from contract with customer, judgment and change in judgment related to contract with customer, and asset recognized from cost incurred to obtain or fulfill contract with customer. Excludes insurance and lease contracts.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Tax

NOTE 3—TAX

Provision for income taxes was $163 and $86 for the three months ended June, 2019 and 2020, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to a full valuation allowance against the Company’s U.S. deferred tax asset in each period presented.

As of June 30, 2019

and 2020, the Company provided a liability for $221 and $591, respectively, for uncertain tax positions related to various income tax matters which was classified as other long-term liabilities. As of June 30, 2019

and 2020, the Company accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions of $11 and $13, respectively. These uncertain tax positions would impact the Company’s effective tax rate, if recognized. The Company does not expect that the amounts of uncertain tax positions will change significantly within the next 12 months.

The Company files U.S. federal, various state and Israeli income tax returns. The associated tax filings remain subject to examination by applicable tax authorities for a certain length of time following the tax year to which those filings relate. In the United States and Israel, the 2017 and subsequent tax years remain subject to examination by the applicable taxing authorities as of June 30, 2020.
