Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT accounting policies

In the opinion of the management of Flamel Technologies S.A. (the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited, condensed, consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements. Accordingly, these Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements, since certain footnotes and other financial information required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (or US GAAP) can be condensed or omitted for interim reporting requirements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results have been included.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Operating results for the six-month ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual financial statements.

The reporting currency of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar as permitted by the SEC for a foreign private issuer (S-X Rule 3-20(a)). All financial statement amounts of the Company and any other subsidiary for which the functional currency is the Euro or any other currency other than the U.S. dollar, are translated into U.S. dollar equivalents at exchange rates as follows: (1) asset and liability accounts at period-end rates, (2) income statement accounts at weighted average exchange rates for the period-end, and (3) shareholders' equity accounts at historical rates. Corresponding translation gains or losses are recorded in shareholders' equity.

The Company followed the guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205 Presentation of Financial Statements (ASC 205), Topic 360 Property, Plant and Equipment (ASC 360) and Accounting Standards Update (ASU 2014-08), Reporting of Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity in determining the accounting for the divestiture of the Pessac facility which occurred on December 1, 2014. Presenting the divestiture as a discontinued operation provides a better understanding of the results of the Company’s new strategy and in assessing the impact of the disposal on the ongoing operations of the entity.

The results of discontinued operations, less income taxes, have been reported as a separate component of income in the statement of operations. The assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation have been reported separately in the asset and liability section, of the balance sheets for the periods presented therein. See note 4 below for a description of the facts and circumstances related to the disposal.

Other comprehensive income includes currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains on marketable securities. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 it represents a loss of $11.4 million.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The standard requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The ASU was originally effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016; however, on July 9, 2015, the FASB decided to defer by one year the effective date of the ASU. As a result, the standard will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is evaluating the impact the adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Revenue Recognition Disclosure [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition Disclosure [Text Block]

2. REVENUES

2.1 Product sales and services

Revenue is generally recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company records revenue from product sales when title and risk of ownership have been transferred to the customer, which is typically upon delivery to the customer, and when the selling price is determinable. As is customary in the pharmaceutical industry, the Company’s gross product sales are subject to a variety of deductions in arriving at reported net product sales. When the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its products, an estimate of provision for sales returns and allowances is recorded which reduces product sales. These deductions include estimates for product returns, chargebacks, payment discounts and other sales allowances and rebates. The estimate for chargebacks is determined when product is shipped from the wholesalers to their customers. The return allowance, when estimable, is based on an analysis of the historical returns of the product or similar products.

For generic products and branded products sold in mature and stable markets where changes in selling price are rare, the Company recognizes revenues upon shipment. For branded products where market conditions remain volatile and selling price is subject to change the Company recognizes revenue based on net product sales of wholesalers to their customers. For new product launches the Company recognizes revenue once sufficient data is available to determine product acceptance in the marketplace such that product returns may be estimated based on historical data and there is evidence of reorders and consideration is made of wholesaler inventory levels. Net product sales of wholesalers to their customers are determined using sales data from an independent wholesaler inventory tracking service. Net sales of wholesalers to their customers are calculated by deducting estimates for returns for wholesaler customers, chargebacks, payment discounts and other sales or discounts offered from the applicable gross sales value. Estimates for product returns are adjusted periodically based upon historical rates of returns, inventory levels in the distribution channel and other related factors.

The Company recognized net product sales of $82.5 million for the first six-month of 2015 compared to $6.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. Branded product sales are generated on sales from wholesalers to hospitals of Bloxiverz^® and Vazculep^®. Net product sales of wholesalers to their customers (hospitals) are determined using sales data from an independent wholesaler inventory tracking service and are calculated by deducting from the applicable gross sales value estimates for returns for wholesalers’ customers, chargebacks, early payment discounts and other sales or discounts offered.

RESEARCH TAX CREDIT

Research Tax Credit [Abstract]

Research Tax Credit Disclosure [Text Block]

3. RESEARCH TAX CREDIT

The French government provides tax credits to companies for spending on innovative research and development. The research tax credit is considered as a grant and is deducted from operating expenses.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the credit amounted to $1.6 million ($0.9 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2015) compared to $2.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 ($1.3 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2014). The decrease reflects the reduction in R&D spending that is deemed eligible for the R&D tax credit in France.

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On December 1, 2014, the Company signed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Recipharm for the divestiture of its development and manufacturing facility located in Pessac, France.

The assets included in the divestiture were tangible equipment, furniture and fixtures, inventories and all intellectual property rights relating to the operation and technological know-how necessary in manufacturing the products that are produced in the facility and the assignment to Recipharm of all employees, customer contracts and liabilities which primarily relate to agreements of the Company with GlaxoSmithKline (“GSK”) for the manufacture and sale of Coreg CR^®. Coreg CR^® was Flamel’s lead product using the Micropump drug delivery platform that was developed with GSK and has been approved and sold in the US since 2007. The semi-finished product is manufactured in the Pessac Facility. The contracts assigned to Recipharm exclude the Amended 2003 License Agreement and 2004 License Agreement (collectively “License Agreements”) between Flamel and GSK for the development of Coreg CR^®. However, the royalties to be earned by Flamel from the sales of Coreg CR^® were transferred to Recipharm as part of the Asset Purchase Agreement. All costs and future revenues relating to the manufacture and sale of Coreg CR^® were transferred to Recipharm.

Royalties from Coreg CR^® sales amounted to $3.6 million in the first half of 2014. Revenues from sales of Coreg CR^® microparticles to GSK amounted to $3.5 million in the first half of 2014. Revenues from research revenues with undisclosed partners amounted to $1.6 million in the first half of 2014.

The aggregate consideration the company received for the acquired assets and business was $13.2 million, plus the value of acquired inventory. All cash and receivables pertaining to Pessac Facility business prior to the sale were retained by Flamel. A contribution of $0.7 million was made to finance potential future retirement indemnities payable on transferred employees. The business was accounted for as a discontinued operation in the fourth quarter of 2014 and, therefore, the operating results of our Pessac Facility business were included in Discontinued Operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014.

In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Master Agreement on Supply and Services of Products (“MSA”). Recipharm will provide various services in the domain of R&D and manufacture of pharmaceutical products for an initial non-cancellable period of five years for a minimum amount of services per year and for a cumulative total of $22.5 million. Over the initial term, any services to be provided to Flamel by Recipharm shall include internal and external costs incurred by Recipharm plus 20%, which has been determined to be fair value for such services. As of June 30, 2015 for the quarter ended, these services amounted to $1.1 million and for the six month period amounted to $2.4 million.

Summary results of operations and major cash-flows for the Pessac business for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2014 are detailed below. For the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2015 the Pessac business had no impact on results of operations or cash-flows other than in relation to contract manufacturing services in accordance with the “MSA” as discussed in the preceding paragraph :

(a) French government agencies provide financing to French companies for research and development. At December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, the Company had outstanding loans of $3.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively for various programs. These loans do not bear interest and are repayable only in the event the research project is technically or commercially successful. Potential repayment is scheduled to occur from 2015 through 2019. In June 2015, the Company reimbursed $0.5 million in relation to a loan associated with a specific research project conducted from 2003 to 2005. In addition, the Company recognized a waiver for repayment of the remaining $1.1 million on the basis of limited commercial and technical success. The waiver is accounted for as a reduction to R&D expenses.

(b) The Acquisition liability relates to the acquisition by the Company on March 13, 2012, through its wholly owned subsidiary Flamel US Holdings, Inc., or Flamel US, of all of the membership interests of Éclat Pharmaceuticals, LLC. In exchange for all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Éclat Pharmaceuticals, Flamel US provided consideration consisting of:

⋅	a $12 million senior, secured six-year note guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiaries and secured by the equity interests and assets of Éclat. The note was repaid in full on March 24, 2014 generating a loss of $3 million and accounted for in interest expense;

⋅	two warrants to purchase a total of 3,300,000 American Depositary Shares, each representing one ordinary share of Flamel (“ADSs”); and

⋅	a commitment to make earnout payments of 20% of any gross profit generated by certain Éclat Pharmaceuticals products. The Purchase Agreement also contains certain representations and warranties, covenants, indemnification and other customary provisions.

The fair value of the warrants was determined by using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

	December 31, 2014			June 30, 2015
Share price	$	17.13		$	21.19
Risk-free interest rate		1.17	%		0.92	%
Dividend yield		-			-
Expected volatility		56.5	%		62.90	%
Expected term		3.3 years			2.8 years

Pursuant to guidance of ASC 815-40-15-7(i), the Company determined that the Warrants issued in March 2012 as consideration for the acquisition of Éclat could not be considered as being indexed to the Company’s own stock, on the basis that the exercise price for the warrants is determined in U.S. dollars, although the functional currency of the Company is the Euro. The Company determined that these warrants should be accounted as a debt instrument.

As of June 30, 2015, the deferred consideration fair value was estimated by using a discounted cash flow model based on probability adjusted annual gross profit of each of the Éclat Pharmaceuticals products. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The discount rate is 20%.

(c) On February 4, 2013 the Company concluded a $15 million debt financing transaction (Facility Agreement) with Deerfield Management a current shareholder. The consideration received was as follows:

⋅	$12.4 million for a facility agreement of a nominal value of $15 million, including a premium on reimbursement of $2.6 million. The indebtedness was repaid on March 24, 2014 in its entirety, the accelerated reimbursement of this note resulted in interest expenses of $2.5 million;

⋅	$2.6 million for a Royalty Agreement whereby, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Éclat subject to required regulatory approvals and launch of product, is to pay a 1.75% Royalty of the net sales of certain products sold by Éclat and any of its affiliates until December 31, 2024.

The fair value of the Royalty was estimated using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model based on probability adjusted projected annual net sales of each of the products which may be approved and sold by Éclat Pharmaceuticals. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The discount rate used is 20%.

(d) On December 3, 2013 the Company concluded with Broadfin Healthcare Master Fund, a current shareholder, a $15 million debt financing transaction (Facility Agreement) divided in 3 tranches of $5 million each, Under the terms of the Facility, upon closing Broadfin made an initial loan of $5.0 million. Consideration received was as follows:

⋅

$2.8 million for a Facility agreement of a nominal value of $5.0 million. Loans under the Facility were scheduled to mature upon the earlier to occur of (i) January 31, 2017 and (ii) the repayment in full of all outstanding amounts under the Deerfield Facility, but in no event prior to November 15, 2015. The indebtedness was repaid on March 24, 2014 in its entirety, the accelerated reimbursement of this note resulted in interest expenses of $ 2.2 million;

⋅	$2.2 million for a Royalty agreement whereby, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Éclat subject to required regulatory approvals and launch of product, is to pay a 0.834% Royalty of the net sales of certain products sold by Éclat and any of its affiliates until December 31, 2024.

Total contingent and future payments on long-term debt for the next five years ending June 30 (assuming the various assumptions of the probability adjusted annual gross profit and revenues of each of the Éclat Pharmaceuticals products and, as it relates to government research loans, the underlying projects are commercially or technically successful for governmental research loans) are as follows:

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In March 2012, we acquired, through our wholly owned subsidiary Flamel US Holdings, all of the membership interests of Éclat from Éclat Holdings, an affiliate of Flamel’s largest shareholder Deerfield Capital L.P. The consideration consisted of a $12 million senior, secured six-year note that is guaranteed by us and our subsidiaries and secured by the equity interests and assets of Éclat, two warrants to purchase a total of 3,300,000 ADSs of Flamel and commitments to make earnout payments of 20% of any gross profit generated by certain Éclat products and 100% of the gross profit generated by our former product Hycet^®, up to a maximum of $1 million, which we sold in 2013. The $12 million senior note was repaid in full in March 2014 using the net proceeds from our public sale of ADSs and the Hycet^® asset was disposed of in November 2013. Upon closing of the acquisition, Mr. Anderson, the Chief Executive Officer of Éclat, was appointed Chief Executive Officer of Flamel. Mr. Anderson retains a minority interest in Éclat Holdings, (now renamed Breaking Stick Holdings, LLC), and does not have the ability to control this entity by virtue of his minority interest. The senior secured note was repaid in full in March 2014.

On February 4, 2013, we entered into a Facility Agreement (the “Deerfield Facility”), through Flamel US with Deerfield Private Design Fund II, L.P. and Deerfield Private Design International II, L.P. (together, the “Deerfield Entities”) providing for debt financing of $15 million by the Deerfield Entities (the “Loan”). The loan was repaid in full in March 2014 using the net proceeds from our public sale of ADSs.

In conjunction with our entry into the Deerfield Facility, Éclat entered into a Royalty Agreement with Horizon Santé FLML, Sarl and Deerfield Private Design Fund II, L.P., both affiliates of the Deerfield Entities (together, “Deerfield PDF/Horizon”). The Royalty Agreement provides for Éclat to pay Deerfield PDF/Horizon 1.75% of the net sales price of the products sold by us and any of our affiliates until December 31, 2024, with royalty payments accruing daily and paid in arrears for each calendar quarter during the term of the Royalty Agreement.

We have also entered into a Security Agreement dated February 4, 2013 with Deerfield PDF/Horizon, whereby Deerfield PDF/Horizon was granted a security interest in the intellectual property and regulatory rights related to the products to secure the obligations of Éclat and Flamel US, including the full and prompt payment of royalties to Deerfield PDF/Horizon under the Royalty Agreement.

On December 3, 2013, we and certain of our U.S. subsidiaries entered into a Facility Agreement (the “Broadfin Facility”) with Broadfin Healthcare Master Fund, Ltd. (“Broadfin”) providing for loans by Broadfin in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15.0 million. The loans under the Broadfin Facility and the obligations under the Royalty Agreement were secured by a first priority security interest in intellectual property associated with our Medusa technology and a junior lien on substantially all of the assets of the borrowers, which were previously pledged in connection with the Deerfield Facility, the Royalty Agreement and the notes issued in connection with the Éclat acquisition.

Under the terms of the Broadfin Facility, upon closing Broadfin made an initial loan of $5.0 million and we had the ability to request, at any time prior to August 15, 2014, up to two additional loans in the amount of $5.0 million each, with funding subject to certain specified conditions. We had the ability to prepay the outstanding loans under the Broadfin Facility at any time, without prepayment penalty and the full $5.0 million outstanding was subsequently repaid using a portion of the net proceeds from our public sale of ADSs in March 2014.

In connection with entering into the Broadfin Facility, we also entered into a Royalty Agreement with Broadfin, dated as of December 3, 2013 (the “Broadfin Royalty Agreement”). Pursuant to the Broadfin Royalty Agreement, we are required to pay a royalty of 0.834% on the net sales of certain products sold by Éclat Pharmaceuticals, LLC and any of its affiliates until December 31, 2024.

12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

At December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, the carrying values of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, other receivables and accrued liabilities and the current portion of long-term debt approximated their market values, based on the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The company calculates fair values for its marketable securities based on quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities which represent Level 1 of the ASC 820-10 fair value hierarchy.

At December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015 the fair values of long-term debt and long-term receivables were comparable with their respective carrying values.

The following table presents information about the Company securities based on quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities for June 30, 2015 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value.

The fair values of the financial instruments in connection with the acquisition of Éclat (see note 10 Long-Term Debt) are estimated as follows:

(a) Acquisition liability contingent consideration: the fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on probability adjusted projected annual gross profit of each of the products which formed the project portfolio at the time of acquisition of Éclat Pharmaceuticals (Note 10 Long Term Debt).

The fair value of the contingent consideration will change over time in accordance with the changes in market conditions and business plan projections as it relates to market size, market share, product pricing, competitive landscape, and gross profit margins expected for each of the products.

(b) Acquisition liability Note: the Company uses a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model (see note 10 Long Term Debt). The note was repaid on March 24, 2014.

(c) Acquisition liability warrant consideration: the Company uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the warrant consideration will change over time depending on the volatility and share price at balance sheet date (see note 10 Long Term Debt).

(d) Broadfin and Deerfield Royalty Agreement: the fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on probability adjusted projected annual net sales of each of the products which may be approved and sold by Éclat Pharmaceuticals (Note 10 Long Term Debt). The discount rate used is 20%.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]

Subsequent Events [Text Block]

13. Subsequent events

The Company determines the fair value of contingent consideration and royalty agreements, classified as long term debt, by reference to a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. The model changes over time as a result of changes in market conditions and including market size, market share, product pricing, competitive landscape, and gross profit margins expected for each of the products. Subsequent to June 30, 2015 the Company received acceptance from the FDA of its third NDA filing and observed changes in market conditions related to price increases implemented on competitor products and related to market share. Such events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date have modified business plan projections and corresponding cash flows, which has resulted in a corresponding increase in the fair value of contingent consideration and royalty agreements of $56.0 million to reach $146.6 million as of September 30, 2015. The Company is evaluating the financial impact of events occurring subsequent to September 30, 2015 on the fair value of contingent consideration and royalty agreements.
