PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our common stock. This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the more detailed information regarding our company, the risks of purchasing our common stock discussed under Risk Factors, and our financial statements and the accompanying notes, before making an investment decision.
Our Business
Effective March 11, 2004, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), dated as of January 28, 2004, among privately held DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc., dba Hyalozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (Halozyme), Global Yacht Services, Inc. (Global) and Hyalozyme Acquisition Corporation (Merger Sub), a wholly owned subsidiary of Global, the Merger Sub merged with and into Halozyme, with Halozyme remaining as the surviving corporation (the Merger).
Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (Halozyme) is a therapeutically driven biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and commercialization of recombinant human enzymes for the infertility, ophthalmology, and oncology communities. The companys broad product portfolio is based on intellectual property covering the family of human enzymes known as hyaluronidases. The companys lead products offer a safe and pure alternative to existing slaughterhouse-derived extracts that carry risks of animal pathogen contamination and immunogenicity. The commercialization of Halozymes highly versatile enzyme technology within proven markets will enable the company to significantly impact the quality of medicine.
The Offering
By means of this prospectus, a number of stockholders of Halozyme are offering to sell up to 19,046,721 shares of common stock which they own, and 10,461,943 shares of common stock which they may at a later date acquire upon the exercise of warrants. In this prospectus, Halozyme refers to these persons as the selling stockholders.
As of March 31, 2004, Halozyme had 39,421,906 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, which includes shares offered by this prospectus. The number of outstanding common stock does not give effect to stock which may be issued pursuant to the exercise and/or conversion of options and/or warrants previously issued by Halozyme.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock offered by the selling stockholders, but we did receive consideration from the selling stockholders at the time they purchased the shares. We may receive proceeds from the exercise price of the warrants if they are exercised by the selling stockholders. We intend to use any proceeds from exercise of the warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The purchase of the securities offered by this prospectus involves a high degree of risk. Risk factors include the lack of revenues and history of loss, and the need for additional capital. See the Risk Factors section of this prospectus for additional Risk Factors.
Summary Financial Data
The following table presents summary pro forma financial information for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 to illustrate the effects of the acquisition, as if the Merger transaction between Halozyme and Global had occurred at the beginning of 2003. The data was taken from our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus, and you should read the actual financial statements for a complete presentation of this information.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider each of the following risk factors and all of the other information provided in this prospectus before purchasing our common stock. An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk, and should be considered only by persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. There may be additional risks and uncertainties that are not known to us or that we do not consider to be material at this time. If the events described in these risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely suffer. Additionally, this prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. This section discusses the risk f
actors that might cause those differences. Several of the most significant risks of this offering include:
|
§ |
Limited prior operations, history of operating losses and accumulated deficit may affect our ability to survive. |
|
|
|
|
§ |
We have a history of net losses and may continue to have them. |
|
|
|
|
§ |
Need for additional financing may affect our operations and plan of business. |
Risks Related To Our Business
If we do not receive and maintain regulatory approvals for our product candidates, we will not be able to commercialize our products, which would substantially impair our ability to generate revenues and materially harm our business and financial condition.
None of our product candidates have received regulatory approval from the FDA. Approval from the FDA is necessary to manufacture and market pharmaceutical products in the United States. Many other countries including major European countries and Japan have similar requirements.
The 510(k) and NDA processes are extensive, time-consuming and costly, and there is no guarantee that the FDA will approve 510(k) s or NDAs for any of our product candidates, or that the timing of any such approval will be appropriate for our product launch schedule and other business priorities, which are subject to change.
Clinical testing of pharmaceutical products is also a long, expensive and uncertain process. Even if initial results of preclinical studies or clinical trial results are positive, we may obtain different results in later stages of drug development, including failure to show desired safety and efficacy.
The clinical trials of any of our product candidates could be unsuccessful, which would prevent us from obtaining regulatory approval and commercializing the product. FDA approval can be delayed, limited or not granted for many reasons, including, among others:
|
§ |
FDA officials may not find a product candidate safe or effective to merit an approval; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
FDA officials may not find that the data from preclinical testing and clinical trials justifies approval, or they may require additional studies that would make it commercially unattractive to continue pursuit of approval; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
the FDA may not approve our manufacturing processes or facilities, or the processes or facilities of our contract manufacturers or raw material suppliers; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
the FDA may change its approval policies or adopt new regulations; and |
|
|
|
|
§ |
the FDA may approve a product candidate for indications that are narrow or under conditions that place our product at a competitive disadvantage, which may limit our sales and marketing activities or otherwise adversely impact the commercial potential of a product. |
If the FDA does not approve our product candidates in a timely fashion on commercially viable terms or we terminate development of any of our product candidates due to difficulties or delays encountered in the regulatory approval process, it will have a material adverse impact on our business and we will be dependent on the development of our other product candidates and/or our ability to successfully acquire other products and technologies.
In addition, we intend to market certain of our products, and perhaps have certain of our products manufactured, in foreign countries. The process of obtaining approvals in foreign countries is subject to delay and failure for similar reasons.
If our product candidates are approved by the FDA but do not gain market acceptance, our business will suffer because we may not be able to fund future operations.
A number of factors may affect the market acceptance of any of our existing products or any other products we develop or acquire in the future, including, among others:
|
§ |
the price of our products relative to other therapies for the same or similar treatments; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
the perception by patients, physicians and other members of the health care community of the effectiveness and safety of our products for their prescribed treatments; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
our ability to fund our sales and marketing efforts; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts; and |
|
|
|
|
§ |
the introduction of generic competitors. |
In addition, our ability to market and promote our products will be restricted to the labels approved by the FDA. If the approved labels are restrictive, our sales and marketing efforts, as well as market acceptance and the commercial potential of our products may be negatively affected.
If our products do not gain market acceptance, we may not be able to fund future operations, including the development or acquisition of new product candidates and/or our sales and marketing efforts for our approved products, which would cause our business to suffer.
If we are unable to sufficiently develop our sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to perform these functions, we will not be able to commercialize products.
We are currently in the process of developing our sales, marketing and distribution capabilities. However, our current capabilities in these areas are very limited. In order to commercialize any products successfully, we must internally develop substantial sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, or establish collaborations or other arrangements with third parties to perform these services. We do not have extensive experience in these areas, and we may not be able to establish adequate in-house sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or engage and effectively manage relationships with third parties to perform any or all of such services. To the extent that we enter into co-promotion or other licensing arrangements, our product revenues are likely to be lower than if we directly marketed and sold our products, and any revenues we receive will d
epend upon the efforts of third parties, whose efforts may not be successful.
We have not generated any revenue from product sales to date; we have a history of net losses and negative cash flow, and may never achieve or maintain profitability.
We have not generated any revenue from product sales to date and may never generate revenues from product sales in the future. Even if we do achieve significant revenues from product sales, we expect to incur significant operating losses over the next several years. We have never been profitable, and may never become profitable. We may need to raise additional capital during the next twelve months, particularly if we do not obtain FDA approval for any of our products. If we engage in acquisitions of companies, products, or technology in order to execute our business strategy, we may need to raise additional capital. We may be required to raise additional capital in the future through collaborative agreements, private financings, and various other equity or debt financings. If we are required to raise additional capital in the future, there can be no assurance th
at the additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all.
If we have problems with our sole contract manufacturer, our product development and commercialization efforts for our product candidates could be delayed or stopped.
We have signed an agreement with a contract manufacturing organization to produce bulk recombinant enzyme product for clinical use. Our contract manufacturer will produce the active pharmaceutical ingredient under cGMPs for commercial scale validation and will provide support for chemistry, manufacturing and controls sections for FDA regulatory filings. We have not established and may not be able to establish arrangements with additional manufacturers for these ingredients or products should the existing supplies become unavailable or in the event that our sole contract manufacturer is unable to adequately perform its responsibilities. Difficulties in our relationship with our manufacturer or delays or interruptions in such manufacturers supply of its requirements could limit or stop our ability to provide sufficient quantities of our products, on a
timely basis, for clinical trials and, if our products are approved, could limit or stop commercial sales, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Our inability to retain key management and scientific personnel could negatively affect our business.
Our success depends on the performance of key management and scientific employees with biotech experience. Given our small staff size and programs currently under development, we depend substantially on our ability to hire, train, retain and motivate high quality personnel, especially our scientists and management team in this field. If we were to lose one or more of our key scientists, then we would likely lose some portion of our institutional knowledge and technical know-how, potentially causing a substantial delay in one or more of our development programs until adequate replacement personnel could be hired and trained.
Our stock price is subject to significant volatility.
Our stock price may be subject to significant volatility. The following factors, in addition to other risks and uncertainties described in this section and elsewhere in this report, may cause the market price of our common stock to fall. We participate in a highly dynamic industry, which often results in significant volatility in the market price of common stock irrespective of company performance. Fluctuations in the price of our common stock may be exacerbated by conditions in the healthcare and technology industry segments or conditions in the financial markets generally.
Recent trading in our stock has been limited, so investors may not be able to sell as much stock as they want at prevailing market prices.
Global finalized its Merger with Halozyme on March 11, 2004. On March 12, 2004, our common stock began trading. Since then, trading volume has been limited. If limited trading in our stock continues, it may be difficult for investors to sell their shares in the public market at any given time at prevailing prices.
Future sales of shares of our common stock, including sales of shares following the registration of shares we issued in our most recent financing, may negatively affect our stock price.
As a result of our recent private financing transaction, the private investors received approximately 19.0 million shares of common stock. The shares of common stock issued in connection with this financing transaction represent approximately 48% of our outstanding common stock. In connection with the financing transaction, we also issued warrants to the private investors that are exercisable for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 10.5 million shares of common stock based upon a purchase price ranging from $0.77 to $1.75 per share. The exercise of these warrants could result in significant dilution to stockholders at the time of exercise.
We intend to file a registration statement on Form SB-2 with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the shares issued to the private investors and issuable upon conversion of the warrants. In the future, we may issue additional options, warrants or other derivative securities convertible into Halozyme common stock.
Sales of substantial amounts of shares of our common stock, or even the potential for such sales, could lower the market price of our common stock and impair the companys ability to raise capital through the sale of equity securities.
Risks Related To Our Industry
Compliance with the extensive government regulations to which we are subject is expensive and time consuming, and may result in the delay or cancellation of product sales, introductions or modifications.
Extensive industry regulation has had, and will continue to have, a significant impact on our business. All pharmaceutical companies, including Halozyme, are subject to extensive, complex, costly and evolving regulation by the federal government, principally the FDA and to a lesser extent by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and foreign and state government agencies. The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Controlled Substances Act and other domestic and foreign statutes and regulations govern or influence the testing, manufacturing, packing, labeling, storing, record keeping, safety, approval, advertising, promotion, sale and distribution of our products. Under certain of these regulations, Halozyme and its contract suppliers and manufacturers are subject to periodic inspection of its or their respective facilities, procedures and oper
ations and/or the testing of products by the FDA, the DEA and other authorities, which conduct periodic inspections to confirm that Halozyme and its contract suppliers and manufacturers are in compliance with all applicable regulations. The FDA also conducts pre-approval and post-approval reviews and plant inspections to determine whether our systems, or its contract suppliers and manufacturers processes, are in compliance with cGMP and other FDA regulations.
In addition, the FDA imposes a number of complex regulatory requirements on entities that advertise and promote pharmaceuticals, including, but not limited to, standards and regulations for direct-to-consumer advertising, off-label promotion, industry-sponsored scientific and educational activities, and promotional activities involving the Internet.
We are dependent on receiving FDA and other governmental approvals prior to manufacturing, marketing and shipping our products. Consequently, there is always a risk that the FDA or other applicable governmental authorities will not approve our products, or will take post-approval action limiting or revoking our ability to sell our products, or that the rate, timing and cost of such approvals will adversely affect our product introduction plans or results of operations.
Our suppliers and sole manufacturer are subject to regulation by the FDA and other agencies, and if they do not meet their commitments, we would have to find substitute suppliers or manufacturers, which could delay the supply of our products to market.
Regulatory requirements applicable to pharmaceutical products make the substitution of suppliers and manufacturers costly and time consuming. We have no internal manufacturing capabilities and are, and expect to be in the future, entirely dependent on contract manufacturers and suppliers for the manufacture of our products and for their active and other ingredients. The disqualification of these suppliers through their failure to comply with regulatory requirements could negatively impact our business because the delays and costs in obtaining and qualifying alternate suppliers (if such alternative suppliers are available, which we cannot assure) could delay clinical trials or otherwise inhibit our ability to bring approved products to market, which would have a material adverse affect on our business and financial condition.
We may be required to initiate or defend against legal proceedings related to intellectual property rights, which may result in substantial expense, delay and/or cessation of the development and commercialization of our products.
We rely on patents to protect our intellectual property rights. The strength of this protection, however, is uncertain. For example, it is not certain that:
|
§ |
Our patents and pending patent applications cover products and/or technology that we invented first; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
we were the first to file patent applications for these inventions; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
others will not independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate our technologies; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
any of our pending patent applications will result in issued patents; and |
|
|
|
|
§ |
any of our issued patents, or patent pending applications that result in issued patents, will be held valid and infringed in the event the patents are asserted against others. |
|
|
|
We currently own or license several U.S. and foreign patents and also have pending patent applications. There can be no assurance that our existing patents, or any patents issued to us as a result of such applications, will provide a basis for commercially viable products, will provide us with any competitive advantages, or will not face third-party challenges or be the subject of further proceedings limiting their scope or enforceability.
We may become involved in interference proceedings in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to determine the priority of our inventions. In addition, costly litigation could be necessary to protect our patent position. We also rely on trademarks to protect the names of our products. These trademarks may be challenged by others. If we enforce our trademarks against third parties, such enforcement proceedings may be expensive. We also rely on trade secrets, unpatented proprietary know-how and continuing technological innovation that we seek to protect with confidentiality agreements with employees, consultants and others with whom we discuss our business. Disputes may arise concerning the ownership of intellectual property or the applicability or enforceability of these agreements, and we might not be able to resolve these disputes in our favor.
In addition to protecting our own intellectual property rights, third parties may assert patent, trademark or copyright infringement or other intellectual property claims against us based on what they believe are their own intellectual property rights. We may be required to pay substantial damages, including but not limited to treble damages, for past infringement if it is ultimately determined that our products infringe a third partys intellectual property rights. Even if infringement claims against us are without merit, defending a lawsuit takes significant time, may be expensive and may divert managements attention from other business concerns. Further, we may be stopped from developing, manufacturing or selling our products until we obtain a license from the owner of the relevant technology or other intellectual property rights. If such a license is available at all, it
may require us to pay substantial royalties or other fees.
If third-party reimbursement is not available, our products may not be accepted in the market.
Our ability to earn sufficient returns on our products will depend in part on the extent to which reimbursement for our products and related treatments will be available from government health administration authorities, private health insurers, managed care organizations and other healthcare providers.
Third-party payers are increasingly attempting to limit both the coverage and the level of reimbursement of new drug products to contain costs. Consequently, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of newly approved healthcare products. If we succeed in bringing one or more of our product candidates to market, third-party payers may not establish adequate levels of reimbursement for our products, which could limit their market acceptance and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
We face intense competition and rapid technological change that could result in the development of products by others that are superior to the products we are developing.
We have numerous competitors in the United States and abroad, including, among others, major pharmaceutical and specialized biotechnology firms, universities and other research institutions that may be developing competing products. Such competitors may include Sigma-Aldrich Corporation, ISTA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Allergan, Inc., among others. These competitors may develop technologies and products that are more effective or less costly than our current or future product candidates or that could render our technologies and product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive. Many of these competitors have substantially more resources and product development, manufacturing and marketing experience and capabilities than we do. In addition, many of our competitors have significantly greater experience than we do in undertaking preclinical testing and clinical trials of pharmaceutical produc
t candidates and obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and therapies for use in healthcare.
We are exposed to product liability claims, and insurance against these claims may not be available to us on reasonable terms or at all.
We might incur substantial liability in connection with clinical trials or the sale of our products. Product liability insurance is expensive and in the future may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. A successful claim or claims brought against us in excess of our insurance coverage could materially harm our business and financial condition.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Some statements in this prospectus contain certain forward-looking statements of management of Halozyme. Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as may, shall, could, expect, estimate, anticipate, predict, probable, possible, should, continue, or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms. The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable. Our future operating results, however, are impossible t
o predict and no representation, guarantee, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.
The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. We cannot guarantee that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-lookin
g statements.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive proceeds from the sale of shares under this prospectus, but we did receive consideration from the selling stockholders at the time they purchased the shares. We may receive proceeds from the exercise price of the warrants if they are exercised by the selling stockholders. Assuming the exercise of all the selling stockholders warrants, we would receive gross proceeds of approximately $15,980,817. We intend to use any proceeds from exercise of the warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The Offering Price is estimated solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee in accordance with Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act), and is based on the closing price for the Registrants common stock as reported on the NASDAQ OTC Bulletin Board on April 19, 2004.
DILUTION
Halozyme is not selling any common stock in this offering. The selling stockholders are current stockholders of Halozyme. As such, there is no dilution resulting from the common stock to be sold in this offering.
SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
The securities are being offered by certain selling security holders. The selling security holders may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus up to an aggregate of 29,508,664 shares of our common shares now owned by them or issuable to them upon the exercise of warrants. The selling security holders may, from time to time, offer and sell any or all of the shares that are registered under this prospectus. Because the selling security holders are not obligated to sell their shares, and because the selling security holders may also acquire publicly traded shares of our common stock, we cannot estimate how many shares the selling security holders will own after the offering.
Pursuant to the stock purchase agreements with the selling security holders, all expenses incurred with respect to the registration of the common stock will be borne by us, but we will not be obligated to pay any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or other expenses incurred by them in connection with the sale of such shares.
The following table sets forth, with respect to the selling security holders: (i) the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned as of March 31, 2004 and prior to the offering contemplated hereby, and (ii) the percentage of shares of common stock beneficially owned as of March 31, 2004.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
|
§ |
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
privately negotiated transactions; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
short sales; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
|
|
|
|
§ |
a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
|
|
|
|
§ |
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this Prospectus. The selling stockholders may also engage in short sales against the box, puts and calls and other transactions in our securities or derivatives of our securities, and may sell or deliver shares in connection with these trades. The selling stockholders may pledge their shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses (excluding selling expenses) incident to the registration of the shares being registered herein, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the selling stockholders. We have agreed to indemnify certain of the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Our Business following the Merger.
General
Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (We, Halozyme or the Company) was founded on February 26, 1998. We are a product-focused biotechnology company dedicated to the development and commercialization of recombinant therapeutic enzymes and drug enhancement systems, based on intellectual property covering the family of human enzymes known as hyaluronidases. Our first products are human synthetic formulations of a hyaluronidase enzyme that replace current animal slaughterhouse-derived enzymes that carry high risks of animal pathogen contamination and immunogenicity. These products are based on a highly versatile enzyme technology that has a wide range of therapeutic applications, and will enable our company to help patients across multiple disease states.
Technology
Our technology is based on recombinant human PH20 (rHuPH20), a human synthetic hyaluronidase that degrades hyaluronic acid (HA), a space-filling cement-like substance that is a major component of tissues throughout the body, such as skin and cartilage. The PH20 enzyme is a naturally occurring enzyme that digests HA to break down the cement, thereby facilitating the penetration and diffusion of other drugs that are injected in the skin or in the muscle.
The successes of replacing animal product derived drugs with human recombinant biologics are well documented, as in the case of insulin, Pulmozyme and human growth hormone. Halozyme is executing this recombinant human enzyme replacement strategy by leveraging the safety and efficacy of its products to access key markets in multiple therapeutic areas, beginning with in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and ophthalmology.
Our proprietary technology will both expand existing markets and create new ones. Gaps in existing hyaluronidase offerings may create demand for our solution, and provide opportunities to capture market share. Despite the many potential therapeutic applications for hyaluronidase, there are many problems with existing and potential non-human product offerings, creating the need for alternative solutions.
|
§ |
Prion disease: All such commercial enzyme preparations are crude extracts from cattle testes and are typically less than 1-5% pure. Cattle testes are an organ with the highest concentration of hyaluronidase, but also with the highest levels of a protein implicated in the development of neurodegenerative disorders associated with prion disease, such as Mad Cow Disease. |
|
|
|
|
§ |
Immunogenicity: Hyaluronidases can also be found in bacteria, leeches, certain venoms, and marine organisms. Very few companies are pursuing clinical development of any of these enzymes. Regardless, all such preparations are non-human, and are therefore likely to elicit potent immune reactions, possess endotoxin, or have some of the same defects as slaughterhouse derivations. |
Strategy
We are pursuing a recombinant human enzyme replacement strategy to pursue a number of attractive near-term market opportunities that can generate early cash flows that can then be leveraged into a number of attractive long-term market opportunities. We intend to leverage the early cash flows to develop the most promising long-term growth opportunities internally en route to building a company of lasting value.

Cumulase
Cumulase is an ex vivo formulation of rHuPH20 to replace the bovine enzyme currently used for the preparation of oocytes prior to IVF during the process of ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection), in which the enzyme is an essential component. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers hyaluronidase IVF products to be medical devices subject to 510(k) approval, presenting a unique opportunity to bring rHuPH20 technology to market in late 2004. The total Cumulase market consists of an estimated 500,000 intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles worldwide in 2004.
Enhanze SC
Enhanze SC is a low unit, fast-acting local formulation of rHuPH20 to replace Wydase®, Wyeths discontinued bovine enzyme previously used for over 50 years as a drug delivery agent to enhance dispersion of local anesthesia for ophthalmic surgery, particularly in cataract surgery. Halozyme plans to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) in the first quarter of 2005. The market consists of approximately 6.4 million local anesthesia procedures (or 45% of the 14.2 million total estimated cataract surgery procedures) worldwide in 2004. This NDA may facilitate approval for multiple additional indications, including other types of surgery requiring local anesthesia, such as cosmetic surgery.
Enhanze SC also facilitates the penetration and dispersion of other drugs by temporarily opening flow channels under the skin. Molecules as large as 200 nanometers may pass freely through the perforated extracellular matrix which recovers its normal density within 24 hours, leading to a drug delivery platform which does not permanently alter the architecture of the skin. Halozyme is actively seeking partnerships with multiple pharmaceutical companies that market drugs requiring injection via the subcutaneous or intramuscular routes that could benefit from this technology. We will use Enhanze SC to tap into the large and rapidly growing implantable/injectable segment of the advanced drug delivery technologies market, which is expected to exceed $7 billion in revenues by 2005 (as reported by Kalorama Information, 2002).
Local anesthesia and other small molecule drugs: A natural extension of Enhanze SC would be applying this technology, used as a spreading factor for local anesthetics around the eye, to other areas of the body. For example, lidocaine and bupivacaine are administered for most minor surgical operations requiring local anesthesia. This technology would not only speed up the anesthetic process, but may also enable clinicians to use lower volumes of anesthesia to effect adequate pain control.
Subcutaneous Fluid Replacement (SFR): Our Enhanze SC facilitates a procedure known as hypodermoclysis, which allows subcutaneous delivery of fluids up to 1 liter without the need for intravenous access. Importantly, fluid replacement in terminal patients may be achieved without the need for nursing assistance. This is an approved indication of Wydase®. Over 1.1 million SFR infusions are performed per year with hospice patients alone. However, over 500 million infusion bags are utilized annually in the United States alone, many of which could potentially convert to SFR using Enhanze Technology, creating a significant potential market opportunity.
Chemophase
Enhanze Technology may also be utilized in a high unit, intravenous or local formulation to deliver chemotherapy to previously chemorefractory tumors in patients with brain, breast, head and neck, colon, lung, and other malignancies that accumulate hyaluronic acid. Bovine material has shown activity in clinical trials with pediatric brain tumors. We have a material transfer agreement with the research group that ran these trials. The market for cancer biologics, such as Herceptin for breast cancer and Rituxan for Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma was approximately $8 billion in 2000, and is expected to grow to nearly $20 billion by 2005 (as reported by McKinsey in 2002). Cytostatic agents alone are expected to reach $4 billion in sales by 2004 (as reported by Lehman Brothers in 2001), and we intends to develop a drug in the next five years through co-a
dministration prior to chemotherapeutic regimens for treatment of solid tumors.
HTI-101
Our HTI-101 discovery program is focused on the development of new clinical applications for our second patented enzyme. We are leveraging our knowledge of this family of enzymes to develop new indications for HTI-101 in the fields of inflammation and lysosomal storage diseases.
HTI-201
We have a patented discovery program surrounding another enzyme for use in inflammation and oncology. We are leveraging our recombinant protein expression capacity to develop this technology.
HTI-401
HTI-401 is a fourth patented enzyme in our portfolio that has unique substrate specificity. We are developing manufacturing systems for HTI-401 to explore its use in CNS trauma and wound healing.
Collaborations
We have collaborations underway using our recombinant hyaluronidase technology for gene therapy delivery, central nervous system trauma, and for solid tumor chemosensitization. These programs are collaborative research programs supplying recombinant enzyme with partners that have expertise in relevant pre-clinical models or have drugs that may benefit from our Enhanze Technology programs.
Hyaluronidases also have many properties that enable them to be used as therapeutic agents. We are establishing corporate partners to pursue both near-term, recombinant human enzyme replacement as well as longer-term strategies to build a robust pipeline.
Sales and Marketing
Cumulase
Our sales and marketing strategy in the IVF market will consist of a multi-channel approach that targets patients, clinicians, suppliers, and regulators. We will raise public awareness of the current risk of using animal-derived products in IVF applications among industry professionals and the general public through direct contact with target audiences, advertising in trade journals, presentations and booths at conferences and trade shows, mass mailings, Web initiatives, and brand-building efforts such as press releases and other public relations efforts. Direct contact could include communicating with key advocacy groups, meeting with FDA officials, and attending specialty conferences.
One of the highest impact target audiences will be the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART), which is the leading organization of professionals dedicated to the practice of assisted reproductive technologies in the United States. The organization includes over 370 members, which represents over 95% of the ART clinics in the nation. Halozyme will use efficacy and safety data to recruit key thought leaders and practitioners from this organization to help promote the use of Cumulase over existing preparations.
There are approximately eight known suppliers of IVF reagents and media, including micromanipulation media that contain hyaluronidase preparations. All of these suppliers sell animal-derived enzymes, and would benefit greatly from having the opportunity to supply clinics with a human recombinant hyaluronidase. We are seeking to establish non-exclusive distribution agreements with a subset of these suppliers to serve the worldwide marketplace. As of April 19, 2004, we have signed three such worldwide distribution agreements with key suppliers serving this market. The agreements are with MediCult AS, a Denmark-based distributor with strengths in the European market, MidAtlantic Diagnostics, Inc., a New Jersey-based distributor with strengths in the North American market, and Cook Ob/Gyn Incorporated, an Indiana-based distributor with strengths in the worldwide market.
Enhanze SC
We are in various stages of discussions with potential sales and marketing partners that include large, diversified medical products and pharmaceutical companies, as well as focused global ophthalmics companies to help market and sell Enhanze SC.
Competition
Cumulase
A strong clinical selling point for Cumulase is that it eliminates the risk of animal pathogens and toxicity inherent in slaughterhouse preparations. The competing enzymes are of animal origin, creating an opportunity for Halozyme to enter the market with a recombinant human enzyme replacement. The leading IVF suppliers are CooperSurgical, Irvine Scientific, MidAtlantic Diagnostics, and Cook Ob/Gyn (bovine products) in the US, and MediCult (ovine) and Vitrolife (bovine) outside the US.
Enhanze SC
Some commercial pharmacies now compound hyaluronidase preparations for institutions and physicians. As no pharmacologic alternatives to hyaluronidase are available, some institutions have pursued this avenue. However, there are several concerns with using an extemporaneously compounded sterile product. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved products. Some compounding pharmacies do not test every batch of product for drug concentration, sterility, and lack of pyrogens. The American Academy of Ophthalmology therefore recommends that compounded ophthalmic products be used within 30 days of preparation to minimize bacterial overgrowth and drug decomposition. Another manufacturer is developing ovine derived hyaluronidase for intraocular use (Vitrase), and is also being tested for peribulbar block.
Patents and Proprietary Rights
Our intellectual property portfolio includes six recently issued and four pending composition of matter and utility patents encompassing all four of the clinically relevant human hyaluronidase enzymes. Our patent position surrounding recombinant human hyaluronidases and their methods of manufacture is a key barrier to entry. Patent protection from pending applications would extend the life of our intellectual property estate through 2024.
Development and Manufacturing
We have signed an agreement with a contract manufacturing organization to produce bulk recombinant enzyme product for clinical use. Our contract manufacturer will produce the active pharmaceutical ingredient under cGMPs for commercial scale validation and will provide support for chemistry, manufacturing and controls sections for FDA regulatory filings. We have not established and may not be able to establish arrangements with additional manufacturers for these ingredients or products should the existing supplies become unavailable or in the event that its sole contract manufacturer is unable to adequately perform its responsibilities. Difficulties in our relationship with our manufacturer or delays or interruptions in such manufacturers supply of its requirements could limit or stop its ability to provide sufficient quantities of our products, on a timel
y basis, for clinical trials and, if our products are approved, could limit or stop commercial sales, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Employees
At April 19, 2004, we employed 14 full-time employees. Nine of our employees are involved in research and clinical development activities. Five employees hold Ph.D. or M.D. degrees. We anticipate hiring five to ten additional employees by the end of 2004.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND PLAN OF OPERATION
Liquidity and Capital Resources. Global had cash and total assets of $47,517 as at December 31, 2003. As previously discussed in the Prospectus Summary section, Global consummated its merger with Halozyme on March 11, 2004. On that date, Halozyme had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $7.6 million. We believe that Halozymes current available cash is sufficient to fund operations for the balance of 2004.
Globals current liabilities were $37,453 as at December 31, 2003, and were represented by accounts payable and accrued expenses. Global had no other liabilities and no long term commitments or contingencies as at December 31, 2003.
Globals Results of Operations.
Revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2003, Global realized revenues of $25,705 compared to $87,769 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $27,003 compared to $74,674 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2003 was negative $1,298, compared to $13,095 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Because Global decreased the scope and volume of its operations and was preparing for its Merger with Halozyme, Global had lower revenues, costs of revenues and gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to the year ended December 31, 2002.
Operating Expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2003, Global had total operating expenses of $77,793 compared to $78,358 for the year ended December 31, 2002. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the majority of those expenses were represented by legal and professional fees of $59,860 as Global incurred significant legal expenses to prepare for the merger with Halozyme. For the year ended December 31, 2003, net loss was $79,091 compared to $65,263 for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Halozymes Results of Operations.
Revenue. Halozyme has generated no revenues since its inception on February 26, 1998.
Operating Expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2003, Halozyme had total operating expenses of $1.7 million compared to $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, an increase of approximately $0.5 million. The majority of this increase was due to an increase of $0.3 million in research and development expenses resulting primarily from increased personnel, facilities costs, and the use of outside services as the Company increased its research and development efforts. The remaining increase of $0.2 million in general and administrative expenses was due to increased personnel and related expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2003, other expenses increased $0.4 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2002. This increase was primarily due to interest expense on notes payabl
e and interest expense due to the beneficial conversion feature of shares issued in 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2003, net loss was $2.1 million compared to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Halozymes Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve Months. As previously mentioned, Global merged with Halozyme on March 11, 2004. The old business of Global has ceased to operate. Globals board and management have resigned and Halozymes board and management have assumed operational control of the new entity. In managements opinion, to achieve our business plan in the next twelve months, Halozyme will strive to attain the following milestones:
Halozyme plans to secure non-exclusive distribution agreements for our Cumulase product to serve the worldwide marketplace. As of April 19, 2004, we have signed three such worldwide distribution agreements with key suppliers serving this market. The agreements are with MediCult AS, a Denmark-based distributor with strengths in the European market, MidAtlantic Diagnostics, Inc., a New Jersey-based distributor with strengths in the North American market, and Cook Ob/Gyn Incorporated, an Indiana-based distributor with strengths in the worldwide market. Halozyme plans on filing a 510(k) application in the fourth quarter of this year. If the company receives FDA clearance, the company could launch this product by the end of 2004.
Halozyme is currently in discussions with potential sales and marketing partners for its Enhanze SC product. Halozyme plans on filing an NDA in the first quarter of 2005 for this product. Currently, Halozyme envisions that such a partnership may allow the company to retain all the intellectual property, clinical development and manufacturing rights, while the partner would contribute sales and marketing efforts to sell the product in selected markets.
On March 11, 2004, Global Yacht Services, Inc. merged with DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc., dba Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. Additionally, on March 11, 2004, Global Yacht Services, Inc. changed its name to Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. The old business of Global Yacht Services has ceased to operate and we have adopted the business plan of Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. On the Merger date, DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc. had approximately $7.6 million in cash and cash equivalents.
After giving effect to the Merger, substantial additional capital will be required to implement Halozymes business plan. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution and such securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our common stock. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to Halozyme or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, Halozyme may not be able to fund expansion, take advantage of unanticipated acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance services or products or respond to competitive pressures. Such inability could harm its business, results of operations and financial c
ondition.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
Our administrative offices and research facilities are located in San Diego, California. We lease approximately 5,700 square feet of office space for approximately $11,500 per month. The lease term expires on June 30, 2005. We believe the space is adequate for our immediate needs. Additional space may be required as we expand our research and development activities. We do not foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining any required additional facilities.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Mitch Keeler, our former president and director prior to the Merger with Halozyme, provided office space to us for operations at no charge. Our financial statements for the years ended 2003 and 2002 reflect the fair market value of such office space as occupancy costs, which is approximately $195 per month. The amount of occupancy costs has been included in the financial statements as an additional capital contribution by Mr. Keeler. Additionally, Mr. Keeler owns a yacht which was used for our charter services prior to the Merger with Halozyme. Mr. Keeler did not expect to be paid or reimbursed for providing the use of his yacht and for providing the office facilities, nor has he demanded such reimbursement.

Trades of our common stock are subject to Rule 15g-9 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which rule imposes certain requirements on broker/dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, brokers/dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchasers written agreement to the transaction prior to sale. The Securities and Exchange Commission also has rules that regulate broker/dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information
with respect to transactions in that security is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker/ dealer, prior to a transaction in a pennystock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker/dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker/dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker/dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customers confirmation. These disclosure requirements have the effect of reducin
the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock. As a result of these rules, investors may find it difficult to sell their shares.
Holders
As of March 31, 2004, there were approximately 125 record owners of Halozymes common stock.
Dividends
We have never paid cash dividends and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future. Our future dividend policy will be determined by our Board of Directors and will depend upon a number of factors, including our financial condition and performance, our cash needs and expansion plans, income tax consequences, and the restrictions that applicable laws and our credit arrangements then impose.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Articles of Incorporation of Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (the Registrant) provide for the indemnification of the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Registrant to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada. Section 78.7502 of the Nevada General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any of its directors, officers, employees or agents against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (except for an action by or in right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, provided that it is determined that such person acted in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law requires that the determination that indemnification is proper in a specific case must be made by (a) the stockholders, (b) the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding or (c) independent legal counsel in a written opinion (i) if a majority vote of a quorum consisting of disinterested directors is not possible or (ii) if such an opinion is requested by a quorum consisting of disinterested directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
There have been no sales of unregistered securities within the last three years, which would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 701 of Regulation S-B, except for the following:
In May 2001, Global issued 97,222 shares of our common stock to Carib-Ventures, Inc. in exchange for $17,499.96, and 180,555 shares of our common stock to Flexgene Corp. for $32,499.90. The shares were issued in a transaction which Global believed satisfied the requirements of that certain exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, which exemption is specified by the provisions of Section 5 of that act and Regulation S. There were no commissions paid on the sale of these shares. The net proceeds were approximately $50,000. Both of the investors were non-U.S. persons and the sale was made in an offshore transaction. No directed selling efforts were made in the United States by us or any person acting on Globals behalf. The offer or sale was not made to a U.S. person or for the account or
benefit of a U.S. person. The purchasers of the securities certified that they were not U.S. persons and they were not acquiring the securities for the account or benefit of any U.S. person. The purchaser of the securities has agreed to resell such securities only in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S or pursuant to registration under the Securities Act of 1933. The shares of common stock issued to the purchaser contain a legend to the effect that transfer is prohibited except in accordance with the provisions of this Regulation S or pursuant to registration under the Securities Act of 1933. We will not register any transfer of the securities unless such transfer is made in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S or pursuant to registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
In May 2001, Global issued 5,000 shares of common stock to Melissa Day, secretary, treasurer and one of Globals directors, in exchange for $500, or $0.10 per share. The shares were issued in a transaction which Global believed satisfied the requirements of that certain exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which exemption is specified by the provisions of Section 4(2) of that act. Global believed that Ms. Day has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that she was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment. In addition, Ms. Day had sufficient access to material information about us because she was Globals secretary, treasurer and one of the directors.
In February 2001, Global issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to Mitch Keeler, Globals president and one of the directors, in exchange for $10,000, or $0.01 per share. The shares were issued in a transaction which Global believed satisfied the requirements of that certain exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which exemption is specified by the provisions of Section 4(2) of that act. Global believed that Mr. Keeler had such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment. In addition, Mr. Keeler had sufficient access to material information about us because he was Globals president and one of the directors.
On March 11, 2004, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), dated as of January 28, 2004, among privately held DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc. dba Hyalozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (Halozyme), Global Yacht Services, Inc., a publicly traded Nevada corporation (Global) and Hyalozyme Acquisition Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Global (Merger Sub), the Merger Sub merged with and into Halozyme, with Halozyme remaining as the surviving corporation (the Merger). Pursuant to the Merger, Global issued 34,999,701 shares of its restricted common stock, 6,886,807 options and 11,758,460 warrants to purchase shares of its common stock to the stockholders of Halozyme in exchange for 100% of their issued and outstanding common stock, options and warrants to purchase Halozymes common
stock.

2. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Global Yacht Services, Inc., incorporated in Nevada on February 21, 2001, and its majority owned subsidiary Global Yacht Services, Ltd. (collectively, Global). Global provided chartering, delivery, maintenance and consulting services to luxury yacht owners and manufacturers. All significant inter company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the balance sheet and statement of cash flows, Global considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying amount of Global's financial instruments, which includes cash and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair value due to the short period to maturity of these instruments.
Recognition of Revenue - Global records revenues on its services when they are complete, fee is fixed and determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Cost of goods sold consists of fuel, docking fees, supplies and cost of services and related expenses of personnel used.
Advertising Costs - Global expenses all advertising costs as incurred.
Income Taxes - Global recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Global provided a 100% valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets.
Loss per Common Share - Global has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128). SFAS 128 requires the reporting of basic and diluted earnings/loss per share. Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period.
Comprehensive Loss - Global applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"). SFAS 130 establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss, requiring its components to be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Global had no other components of comprehensive income or loss other than the net loss as reported on the consolidated statement of operations.
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
F-10
Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 91, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual, and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions.
This statement also amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to eliminate the exception to consolidation for a subsidiary for which control is likely to be temporary. The provisions are generally to be applied prospectively. The Company adopted the provisions of this statement effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force (ETIF) Issue 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for an exit cost, as defined in ETIF Issue 94-3, be recognized at the date of an entitys commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the liability should initially be measured and recorded at fair value. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 will be adopted for exit or disposal activities that are initi
ated after December 31, 2002.
In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statement Nos. 5, 57 and 107, and rescission of FIN 34, Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires that a guarantor recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to
guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002; while the provisions of the disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure an amendment of SFAS No. 123. This statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, which establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic companies. For nonpublic companies, mandatory redeemable financial instruments are subject to the provisions of this statement for the first fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2003. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this statement will have a significant impact on
its financial statements.
3. COMMON STOCK
On November 24, 2003 Globals Board of Directors approved a 4.275 for 1 stock split of Globals issued and outstanding common stock. The forward split, which became effective December 5, 2003, was effectuated to facilitate the Merger (see note 1). All references to Globals common shares in the accompanying financial statements reflect this stock split.
On May 10, 2002, Global issued 2,712,488 shares of its common stock at $0.0468 per share pursuant to the prospectus filed with its registration statement on Form SB-2, for net proceeds of $126,900.
4. INCOME TAXES
At December 31, 2003, Global had available for federal income tax purposes a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $184,000, expiring at various dates through 2023 and deferred tax assets of approximately $42,000 which was fully offset by a valuation allowance.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Global occupies office space provided by its officer. Accordingly, occupancy costs have been allocated to Global based on the square foot percentage assumed multiplied by the officer's total monthly costs. These amounts are reported as contributions of capital by the officer.

Financial Statements
December 31, 2003
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc., doing business as Hyalozyme Therapeutics, (a California corporation) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statements of operations, shareholders equity and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (February 26, 1998) to December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from inception (February 26, 1998) to December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, the Companys significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans regarding this uncertainty are also described in Note 8. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO DECEMBER 31, 2003 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General DeliaTroph Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (a development stage company) dba Hyalozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on February 26, 1998 and is a development stage, product-focused biotechnology company dedicated to the development and commercialization of recombinant therapeutic enzymes and drug enhancement systems, based on intellectual property covering the family of enzymes known as hyaluronidases.
Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from the original purchase date to be cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with one major commercial bank. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000.
Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Equipment and furniture are depreciated using the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of three years and leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, whichever is shorter.
Long-Lived Assets The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets are reviewed for events of changes in circumstances, which indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. At December 31, 2003, the Company believes there has been no impairment of the value of such assets.
Income Taxes Income taxes are recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Companys financial statements or tax returns. Measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between financial reporting bases and tax bases of the Companys assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, SFAS No. 109 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such assets. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax asset will not be realized. At December 31, 2003, the Company had federal and state deferred tax assets of approximately $1,200,000 and $300,000, respectively, both consisting primarily of net operating loss carryforwards. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance for all net deferred tax assets generated to date. The deferred tax assets and valuation allowances increased approximately $800,000 in 2003. The federal and state net operating losses of approximately $3,400,000 will begin to expire in 2018 and 2008, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation The Company has elected to adopt the disclosure only provisions of SFAS No. 148 and will continue to follow APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options granted to its employees and directors. Accordingly, employee and director compensation expense is recognized only for those options whose price is less than the market value at the measurement date. When the exercise price of the employee or director stock options is less then the estimated fair value of the underlying stock on the grant date, the Company records deferred compensation for the difference and amortizes this amount to expense in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Options or Award Plans, over the vesting period of the options.
Stock options issued to non-employees are recorded at their fair value as determined in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction With Selling Goods or Services, and recognized over the related service period. Deferred charges for options granted to non-employees are periodically re-measured as the options vest. The Companys calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: expected life of 48 months; 100% stock volatility; risk-free interest rate of 3.0%; no dividends during the expected term; and forfeitures recognize d as they occur.
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the estimated life of the related options. The Companys pro forma information follows (in thousands except per share data):

Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as all changes in a companys net assets, except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company has no reportable differences between net loss and comprehensive loss.
Research and development costs Costs and expenses that can be clearly identified as research and development are charged to expense as incurred in accordance with FASB statement No. 2, Accounting for Research and Development Costs.
Net loss per share In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 98, basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Under SFAS No. 128, diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as stock options and warrants, outstanding during the period. Such common equivalent shares have not been included in the Companys computation of net loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 91, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual, and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. This statement also amends Account
ing Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to eliminate the exception to consolidation for a subsidiary for which control is likely to be temporary. The provisions are generally to be applied prospectively. The Company adopted the provisions of this statement effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force (ETIF) Issue 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for an exit cost, as defined in ETIF Issue 94-3, be recognized at the date of an entitys commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the liability should initially be measured and recorded at fair value. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 will be adopted for exit or disposal activities that are initi
ated after December 31, 2002.
In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statement Nos. 5, 57 and 107, and rescission of FIN 34, Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires that a guarantor recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to gua
rantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002; while the provisions of the disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company believes the adoption of the recognition provisions of such interpretation will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position and has adopted such interpretation on January 1, 2003, as required.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure an amendment of SFAS No. 123. This statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, which establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic companies. For nonpublic companies, mandatory redeemable financial instruments are subject to the provisions of this statement for the first fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2003. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this statement will have a significant impact on
its financial statements.

The 2002 accrued wages payable were due to two former officers and one current officer of the Company. The former officers were paid their accrued wages of $50,000 in February 2003.

4. NOTES PAYABLE
In 2002, the Company issued 10% promissory notes in the amount of $355,000. As amended, principal and interest automatically convert to common stock at $0.449 per share at the closing of the next equity financing in which the Company receives gross proceeds of at least $800,000. Because market value of the common shares was below the conversion price at the commitment date, there was no beneficial conversion feature. The notes carried a 40 percent warrant coverage for the purchase of common stock (see Note 5).
In 2002 and 2003, the Company issued 10% promissory notes in the amount of $917,000. As amended, principal and interest automatically convert to common stock at $0.281 per share at the closing of the next equity financing in which the Company receives gross proceeds of at least $800,000. Because the market value of the shares was above the conversion price at the commitment date, a beneficial conversion feature of $306,754 was recorded as interest expense and additional paid in capital in October 2003, upon the Companys issuance of $1,004,486 of Series C preferred stock. The notes carried a 20 percent warrant coverage for the purchase of common stock (see Note 5).
Upon closing the Series C preferred financing, the principal balance of $1,272,000 of the above described notes and $99,764 of accrued interest were converted into 4,260,869 shares of common stock of the Company.

Contract Manufacturing Agreement In November 2003, the Company entered into a contract manufacturing agreement whereby the contractor will manufacture the Companys recombinant protein to be used as the Company seeks regulatory approval for its product. The value of the contract is approximately $1,500,000 and is payable as milestones are achieved over the term of the contract in 2004.
Consulting Agreements In November and December 2003, the Company entered into consulting agreements with key members of its Scientific Advisory Board. In connection with these agreements, the Company issued stock options to some of these members. As discussed in Note 4, the Company recorded the fair value of these options as an expense on the date of grant.
Management Agreements The Company has entered into employment agreements with various members of its executive management team. The agreements are for one year and then revert to at will employment.
Indemnities and Guarantees During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include those given to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of California. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies. Some of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in the accompanying balance sheets.
Merger Agreement The Company is currently in negotiations to merge with a public company in order to maximize shareholder value. The terms of the agreement have not yet been finalized.
8. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has reported losses from its inception, is still in the development stage and does not have sufficient cash to cover its current operating needs. The Company is seeking to raise the additional capital it will require to meet its obligations in 2004. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in these efforts.
