Review of the consolidated financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:
Revenues
NicOx' revenues totaled EUR2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to EUR18.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. This significant decrease is explained by the fact that the Company received EUR10.0 million from Merck and EUR1.0 million from Pfizer in 2007, which was entirely recognized as revenues in the first nine months of 2007.
For the first nine months of 2008, NicOx recognized the following
amounts in revenues:
- EUR0.25 million corresponding to the initial payment of
EUR5.0 million from Pfizer, as a technology exclusivity fee, following
the March 2006 agreement that granted Pfizer rights to apply NicOx'
proprietary technology in a drug discovery research program covering
the field of ophthalmology
- EUR2.1 million corresponding to the funding of the research
collaboration, pursuant to the above referenced agreement signed with
Pfizer in March 2006
- EUR0.56 million corresponding to the balance of the spreading of the
initial payment of EUR9.2 million received from Merck following the
signature of a collaboration agreement for new antihypertensive drug
candidates in March 2006
These amounts initially recorded as prepaid income were deferred over
the estimated duration of NicOx' involvement in the research and
developmen
