Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2022 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions for Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, since they are interim statements, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements, but reflect all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods. The December 31, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheet information was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.

 

The Company has generated limited revenues to date from the sale of products. The Company has never been profitable and has incurred significant net losses each year since its inception, including a loss of $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company expects to continue to incur net operating losses for the foreseeable future. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $9.3 million. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.7 million and an accumulated deficit of $151.4 million.

 

In January and April 2023, the Company committed to a restructuring initiative designed to position the Company to explore a range of strategic and financing alternatives focused on maximizing stockholder value and accelerating the commercialization of the Pure-Vu System. If a strategic transaction is not completed, or if additional financing is not available, the Company may not be able to service our outstanding indebtedness and our payables and may have to file for bankruptcy protection or pursue a dissolution of the Company and liquidation of all of the Company’s remaining assets. In such an event, the amount of cash available for distribution to the Company’s shareholders, if any, will depend heavily on the timing of such decision, as with the passage of time the amount of cash available for distribution will be reduced as the Company continues to fund its operations and service the Company’s outstanding indebtedness. The Company cannot provide assurance as to the amount of cash that will be available to distribute to shareholders, if any, after paying its debts and other obligations and setting aside funds for reserves, nor as to the timing of any such distribution, if any. Such conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.

 

 

The Company has financed its operations primarily through sales of equity-related securities and debt. In March 2021, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. (“Oppenheimer”), under which we may offer and sell from time to time common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold approximately 7,942 shares of our common stock under this agreement, resulting in net cash proceeds of $102 thousand, after deducting issuance costs of $19 thousand.

 

On May 17, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with an accredited investor pursuant to which it agreed to issue and sell in a private placement an aggregate of (i) 35,000 shares of common stock, (ii) warrants to purchase up to 241,134 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and (iii) warrants to purchase up to 276,134 shares of common stock (the “Common Warrants”). The purchase price was $12.675 for each share of common stock and $12.6735 for each Pre-Funded Warrant, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $3.0 million, inclusive of issuance costs of $0.5 million and exclusive of warrant issuance costs of $0.2 million. See Note 11 for further discussion of the Private Placement.
