| Total financial debt | 7,936 | 8,277 |
The following table summarizes operating revenue for the periods under review:
| 6-month period ended June 30 | ||
|---|---|---|
| In thousands of euros | 2010 | 2009 |
| Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements | 210 | 2,590 |
| Government funding for research expenditures | 2,264 | 2,507 |
| Other revenue | 1 | 62 |
| Operating revenue | 2,476 | 5,159 |
Turnover is composed by revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements as well as by other revenue.
For the six-month period ended on June 30, 2010 and 2009, revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements mostly came from agreements signed with Novo Nordisk A/S in March 2006 as well as in 2009.
After the research and development collaboration part of the 2006 agreement ended in March 2009, the Company received additional research and development funding from Novo Nordisk A/S for collaborative work performed after March 2009 on selected products that are licensed to Novo Nordisk A/S.
Government funding for research costs is mostly composed of the research tax credit. Despite an increase in R&D expenses between the two periods under review decreased, net R&D expense eligible to research tax credit were stable, due notably to the deduction from the tax credit basis of subsidies received during the first half of 2009. Research tax credits were respectively 1.9 million euros for the sixmonth period ended June 30, 2010 and 2.1 million euros for the same year-ago period.
The following table breaks down the net operating expenses by function for the periods under review:
| 6-month period ended June 30 | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| In thousands of euros | 2010 | 2009 | |
| Research and development expenses | (7,179) | (9,753) | |
| General and administrative expenses | (2,005) | (3,311) | |
| Net operating expenses | (9,184) | (13,064) |
Research and development ("R&D") expenses include mostly R&D staff costs, product manufacturing costs, subcontracting costs (research, pre-clinical and clinical development) as well as costs of materials (reagents and other consumables) and pharmaceuticals products.
The decrease in R&D expenses between the two periods under review (7.2 million euros for the sixmonth period ended June 30, 2010 vs. 9.8 million euros for the year-ago period, or -26%) reflects notably the end of the clinical costs related to IPH 1101 Phase II program, only partly offset by the costs associated with the start of IPH 2101 Phase II program, as well as the decrease in share-based compensation (7 thousand euros for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, vs. 740 thousand euros for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009).
Expenses for clinical development represented a total of 4.0 million euros for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, or 56% of the R&D costs, to be compared with 6.2 million euros for the same year-ago period, or 64% of the R&D costs.
R&D expenses accounted for 78% of net operating expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 vs. 75% for the same year-ago period.
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses include mostly costs of the "support" staff as well as external expenses for the management and development of our business (legal, auditing, business development, etc.). These costs amounted to 2.0 million euros for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 vs. 3.3 million euros for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The decrease of G&A expenses is mostly related to the decrease in share-based compensation (13 thousand euros for the sixmonth period ended June 30, 2010, vs. 1,006 thousand euros for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009).
G&A expenses accounted for 22% of net operating expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 vs. 25% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.
The following table breaks down the net operating expenses by nature of expense for the periods under review:
| 6-month period ended June 30 | ||
|---|---|---|
| In thousands of euros | 2010 | 2009 |
| Costs of supplies and consumable materials | (1,491) | (1,065) |
| Intellectual property expenses | (446) | (440) |
| Other purchases and external expenses | (3,572) | (5,751) |
| Employee benefits other than share-based compensation | (3,014) | (3,323) |
| Share-based compensation | (20) | (1,747) |
| Depreciation and amortization | (489) | (512) |
| Other income and (expenses), net | (152) | (225) |
| Net operating expenses | (9,184) | (13,064) |
The changes in the most significant line items can be analyzed as follows:
Cash, cash equivalent and current financial instruments amounted to 39.1 million euros as at June 30, 2010, as compared to 49.2 million euros on December 31, 2009. The balance as at June 30, 2010 does not take into account 3.7 million euros in research tax credit received in July 2010.
Since its inception in 1999, the Company has been primarily financed by issuing new securities. The Company also generated cash flow from its licensing activity (mostly in relation with the agreements with Novo Nordisk A/S), from research tax credit and from repayable government financing (Oséo). Repayable government financing amounted to 2.5 million euros on June 30, 2010, accounted as noncurrent financial liabilities.
The other key balance sheet items as at June 30, 2010 were as follows:
Cash-flow items:
The net cash flow absorbed in the operations over the six-month period ended on June 30, 2010 amounted to 10.1 million euros, compared to a net cash flow generated by the operations of 2.0 million euros for the same year-ago period. This change is mostly explained by the effect on working capital of the early repayment (by the French' State) in the first half 2009 of the research tax credit balance as at December 31, 2008, amounting 10.4 million euros.

They have been reviewed by the Supervisory Board of the Company on August 2, 2010. They will not be submitted for approval to a general meeting of shareholders.
Risk factors:
Risk factors identified by the Company are presented in paragraph 4 of the "Document de Référence" submitted to the French stock-market regulator, the "Autorité des Marchés Financiers", on April 23, 2010.
Related party transactions:
Transactions with related parties during the periods under review are disclosed in the Note 17 to the Interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IAS 34.
Certain information contained in this presentation includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance of the Company and its actual financial condition, actual results of operations and cash flows and the development of the industry in which it operates may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation. In addition, even if the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and the development of the industry in which the Company operates are consistent with the forwardlooking statements contained in this presentation, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in future periods. These statements are based on management's current expectations or beliefs and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake, nor does it have any obligation, to provide updates or to revise the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation to reflect events that occur or circumstances that arise after the date of this presentation. The Company takes no responsibility for the use of this information by any person.
In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by the General Meeting of shareholders and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2 III of the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code monétaire et financier), we hereby report to you on:
• The review of the interim financial statements of Innate Pharma S.A. for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 ;
• The verification of the information contained in the interim management report.
These interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Executive Board. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. A review of interim financial information consists in discussing with persons responsible for financial and accounting matters in the company as well as in conducting analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 - the IFRS standard as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.
We have also verified the information given in the interim management report on the interim consolidated financial statements subject to our review. We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the interim consolidated financial statements.

Innate Pharma (the "Company") is a French Société Anonyme incorporated and domiciled in Marseilles, France. The Company, founded in 1999, is listed on the NYSE-Euronext stock exchange in Paris, France, since 2006.
Innate Pharma is a biopharmaceutical firm specialized in immunology, developing first-in-class drug candidates. The Company works on immunotherapies, with two different approaches: immunomodulatory compounds, activating or inhibiting specific innate immunity cells, and cytotoxic antibodies (biological molecules directly targeting antigens expressed by cancer cells and, by doing so, destroying those cells). These approaches could have an application in several therapeutic areas such as cancer, inflammation or infectious diseases.
As at June 30, 2010 the Company had several products under development (none of which marketed yet) including two pre-clinical programs licensed to the Danish biopharmaceutical company Novo Nordisk A/S, a shareholder.
Currently, the Company's strategy is to develop its drug-candidates in cancer on its own or through partnerships, and through partnerships only for the other therapeutic areas.
In the long run, the Company intends to become a commercial company, selling its product directly or through commercial partners. The Company is and should continue, in the near to mid-term, to be financed primarily through the issuance of new equity instruments as well as through partnering activity.
The Company's activity is not subject to seasonal fluctuations.
The Company has incorporated in 2008 two fully-owned subsidiaries: IPH Services SAS (previously Innate Pharma France SAS), a company which is intended to provide immuno-monitoring services to third-party clients, and Innate Pharma, Inc., registered in the Delaware, United States, to manage its business development activities in the United States.
These two companies are fully consolidated.
The organization chart of the Company and its subsidiaries as at June 30, 2010 is as follows:
The Executive Board has approved these interim consolidated financial statements presented under IFRS on August 27, 2010. They also have been examined by the Supervisory Board on the same day and subject of a limited review by the statutory auditors of the Company. They are not subject to approval by the General Meeting of shareholders.
The interim financial statements for the six-month period ended 30 June 2010 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. They should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2009 prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union and presented in paragraph 20.1 of the "Document de Référence" submitted to the French stock-market regulator, the "Autorités des Marchés Financiers", on April 23, 2010.
The accounting policies applied are the same as those adopted in the preparation of the annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union as at December 31, 2009. Application of the following existing standard amendment is mandatory for the first time for the financial period beginning on January 1, 2010 and, as such, has been adopted by the Company:
None of these amendments is applicable to the Company's operations as of today.
As at June 30, 2010, estimate of the amount of research tax credit for the first half period is calculated on the basis of eligible expenses in the period (30% of these expenses). The same calculation applied for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.

On June 18, 2010, the Company distributed 100 000 redeemable warrants ("BSAAR") to officers and certain employees, as per a delegation given by the General Meeting of shareholders dated June 23, 2009. All BSAAR were acquired by beneficiaries. Each BSAAR will give beneficiaries the option to acquire one new share of the Company at a price of 2.34 euros within the five years following their distribution.
The Company will have the right, at its sole option, to buy back the BSAAR from the beneficiaries at any given time after their distribution at a price of 0.01 euros per BSAAR. However, such a buy-back will only be possible if the average share price as calculated over ten working days within the twenty working days prior to the decision taken by the Company to use its right is above 3,51 euros, or 150% of the strike price.
This issuance of BSAAR, for which acquisition period closed on July 13, 2010, is a post balance sheet event and, as such, had no incidence on the accounts as at June 30, 2010.

This number does not take into account the authorized but not yet issued warrants ("BSA"; 350,000), nor the authorized but not yet distributed free shares (900), nor the BSAAR.

Interest income and gains on sales of marketable securities do not include the unrealized gain relating to current financial instruments amounting to 162 thousand euros as at 30 June 2010, as disclosed in Note 3.
Interest paid on borrowings, including lease-financing agreements, include notably the agreement for the lease-financing related to the acquisition and renovation of the Company's main premises.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, the Company's licensing revenue relate mostly to collaboration and licensing agreements with Novo Nordisk A/S.
In the context of the lease-financing contract signed with SOGEBAIL for the financing of the acquisition and renovation of the main premises of the Company, a down-payment of 1,500 thousand euros was made to SOGEBAIL by the Company as a collateral to the lease-financing agreement. This deposit carries interests and is deducted (principal and interests) from the repayments of the lease-financing contract over its 12-year duration.
In January 2004, the Company has engaged into an exclusive license agreement with the German company Bioagency AG for all claims relating to two families of patents regarding the IPH 1201 drug candidate. Bioagency AG pretends to have unilaterally terminated this agreement in August 2009. The Company has immediately contested this termination and considers this agreement as being still in force. Bioagency AG has then started legal action in France against Innate Pharma for counterfeiting and is requesting 2.0 million euros in damages to the Company.
The Company considers firstly that Bioagency AG had no right to terminate the agreement and that, secondly, there has been no counterfeiting. In addition, Innate Pharma considers that the court before which Bioagency AG has started a legal action against the Company is, under the terms of the license agreement, not competent to solve a possible dispute between the two parties.
Innate Pharma has also engaged into a legal action against Bioagency AG considering that, by its action, it has had access to confidential information on research and development of IPH 1201 that could cause a serious prejudice to the Company. In this context, the Company is asking Bioagency AG for 6.0 million euros in damages.
The dispute is now in court. Considering the time taken by justice to resolve such disputes, the arguments developed by the Company and its advisors to contest the claims as well as the inherent uncertainty associated with such kind of dispute, the Company considers that this is a possible liability which has not be subject of a provision for risks in the accounts.
