NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(amounts in these accompanying notes are presented in thousands, except number of shares and per-share amounts.)

 

Note 1 — The Company

 

Description of the Business

 

PAVmed Inc. and Subsidiaries, referred to herein as “PAVmed” or the “Company,” is comprised of PAVmed Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary and its majority-owned subsidiaries, inclusive of Lucid Diagnostics Inc. (“Lucid Diagnostics” or “Lucid”) and Veris Health Inc. (“Veris Health” or “Veris”).

 

PAVmed is a diversified commercial-stage medical technology company operating in the medical device, diagnostics, and digital health sectors, including through its majority-owned subsidiaries Lucid Diagnostics, a commercial-stage cancer prevention diagnostics company, and Veris Health, a private digital health company focused on enhanced personalized cancer care.care through remote patient monitoring using implantable biologic sensors with wireless communication along with a custom suite of connected external devices. The Company’s current central focus is on the commercialization of Lucid’s EsoGuard assay and Veris Health’s Veris Cancer Care Platform. As resources permit, we will continue to explore internal and external innovations that fulfill our project selection criteria without limiting ourselves to any target specialty or condition.

Liquidity

 

The Company has financed its operations principally through public and private issuances of its common stock, preferred stock, common stock purchase warrants, and debt. The Company is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties typically faced by medical device and diagnostic companies that devote substantially all of their efforts to the commercialization of their initial product and services and ongoing research and development activities and conducting clinical trials. The Company expects to continue to experience recurring losses from operations and will continue to fund its operations with debt and equity financing transactions.transactions, including current obligations on the Company’s existing convertible debt which in accordance with management’s plans may include conversions to equity and refinancing our existing debt obligations to extend maturity dates. Notwithstanding, however, with the cash on-hand as of the date hereof and other debt and equity committed sources of financing, conversion and refinancing of existing convertible notes, the Company expects to be able to fund its operations for one year from the date of the issue of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31,September 30, 2023.

 

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

The Company’s significant accounting policies are as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on March 14, 2023, except as otherwise noted herein below.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of PAVmed and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and applicable rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company holds a majority-ownership interest and has controlling financial interest in each of: Lucid Diagnostics and Veris Health, with the corresponding noncontrolling interest included as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity (deficit), including the recognition in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations of a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest based on the respective minority-interest equity ownership of each majority-owned subsidiary. See Note 15, Noncontrolling Interest, for a discussion of each of the majority-owned subsidiaries noted above. The Company manages its operations as a single operating segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions.

 

As permitted under SEC rules, certain footnotes or other financial information normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements at such date. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of routine recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentationstatement of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial information.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and the determination of corresponding carrying value reserve, if any, and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent losses, as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include those related to the estimated fair value of debt obligations, stock-based equity awards, intangible assets and common stock purchase warrants. Other significant estimates include the estimated incremental borrowing rate, the provision or benefit for income taxes and the corresponding valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Additionally, management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern involves the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash inflows and outflows. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in these estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are recognized when the satisfaction of the performance obligation occurs, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to collect in exchange for those services. The Company’s revenue is primarily generated by its laboratory testing services utilizing its EsoGuard Esophageal DNA tests. The services are completed upon release of a patient’s test result to the ordering healthcare provider. Revenue recognized is inclusive of both variable consideration in connection with an individual patient’s third-party insurance coverage policy and fixed consideration in connection with a contracted services arrangement with an unrelated third party legal entity. To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The key aspects considered by the Company include the following:

 

Contracts—The Company’s customer is primarily the patient, but the Company does not enter into a formal reimbursement contract with a patient. The Company establishes a contract with a patient in accordance with other customary business practices, which is the point in time an order is received from a provider and a patient specimen has been returned to the laboratory for testing. Payment terms are a function of a patient’s existing insurance benefits, including the impact of coverage decisions with Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) and applicable reimbursement contracts established between the Company and payers. However, when a patient is considered self-pay, the Company requires payment from the patient prior to the commencement of the Company’s performance obligations. The Company’s consideration can be deemed variable or fixed depending on the structure of specific payer contracts, and the Company considers collection of such consideration to be probable to the extent that it is unconstrained.

 

Performance obligations—A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service (or a bundle of goods or services) to the customer. The Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation, which is satisfied upon rendering of services, which culminates in the release of a patient’s test result to the ordering healthcare provider. The Company elects the practical expedient related to the disclosure of unsatisfied performance obligations, as the duration of time between providing testing supplies, the receipt of a sample, and the release of a test result to the ordering healthcare provider is far less than one year.

 

7

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Transaction price—The transaction price is the amount of consideration that the Company expects to collect in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, some sales taxes). The consideration expected to be collected from a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both.

 

If the consideration derived from the contracts is deemed to be variable, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the promised goods or services. The Company limits the amount of variable consideration included in the transaction price to the unconstrained portion of such consideration. In other words, the Company recognizes revenue up to the amount of variable consideration that is not subject to a significant reversal until additional information is obtained or the uncertainty associated with the additional payments or refunds is subsequently resolved.

 

When the Company does not have significant historical experience or that experience has limited predictive value, the constraint over estimates of variable consideration may result in no revenue being recognized upon delivery of patient EsoGuard test results to the ordering healthcare provider. As such, the Company recognizes revenue up to the amount of variable consideration not subject to a significant reversal until additional information is obtained or the uncertainty associated with additional payments or refunds, if any, is subsequently resolved. Differences between original estimates and subsequent revisions, including final settlements, represent changes in estimated expected variable consideration, with the change in estimate recognized in the period of such revised estimate. With respect to a contracted service arrangement, the fixed consideration revenue is recognized on an as-billed basis upon delivery of the laboratory test report with realization of such fixed consideration deemed probable based upon actual historical experience.

 

Allocate transaction price—The transaction price is allocated entirely to the performance obligation contained within the contract with a customer on the basis of the relative standalone selling prices of each distinct good or service.

 

Practical Expedients—The Company does not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component, as at contract inception, the Company expects the collection cycle to be one year or less.

Fair Value Option (“FVO”) Election

 

Under a Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 31, 2022, the Company issued a Senior Secured Convertible Note dated April 4, 2022, referred to herein as the “April 2022 Senior Convertible Note”, and a Senior Secured Convertible Note dated September 8, 2022, referred to herein as the “September 2022 Senior Convertible Note”, which are accounted under the “fair value option election” as discussed below.

 

Under a Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 13, 2023, Lucid Diagnostics issued a Senior Secured Convertible Note dated March 21, 2023, referred to herein as the “Lucid March 2023 Senior Convertible Note”, which is accounted under the “fair value option election” as discussed below.

 

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, Derivative and Hedging, (“ASC 815”), a financial instrument containing embedded features and/or options may be required to be bifurcated from the financial instrument host and recognized as separate derivative asset or liability, with the bifurcated derivative asset or liability initially measured at estimated fair value as of the transaction issue date and then subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value as of each reporting period balance sheet date.

 

Alternatively, FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, (“ASC 825”) provides for the “fair value option” (“FVO”) election. In this regard, ASC 825-10-15-4 provides for the FVO election (to the extent not otherwise prohibited by ASC 825-10-15-5) to be afforded to financial instruments, wherein the financial instrument is initially measured at estimated fair value as of the transaction issue date and then subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value as of each reporting period balance sheet date, with changes in the estimated fair value recognized as other income (expense) in the statement of operations. The estimated fair value adjustment of the April 2022 Senior Convertible Note, the September 2022 Senior Convertible Note and the Lucid March 2023 Senior Convertible Note are presented in a single line item within other income (expense) in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations (as provided for by ASC 825-10-50-30(b)). Further, as required by ASC 825-10-45-5, to the extent a portion of the fair value adjustment is attributed to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk, such portion would be recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) (for which there was no such adjustment with respect to the April 2022 Senior Convertible Note, the September 2022 Senior Convertible Note or the Lucid March 2023 Senior Convertible Note).

 

See Note 10, Financial Instruments Fair Value Measurements, with respect to the FVO election; and Note 11, Debt, for a discussion of the April 2022 Senior Convertible Note, the September 2022 Senior Convertible Note and the Lucid March 2023 Senior Convertible Note.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, which includes presenting costs of revenue within operating expenses on the statements of operations, in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The impact of the reclassifications made to prior year amounts is not material and did not affect net loss.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The updated guidance requires companies to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets, including trade receivables. The guidance was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2023. The adoption of the ASU did not have an impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

As discussed in Note 11, Debt, the Company issued Senior Secured Convertible Notes dated April 4, 2022 and September 8, 2022, with an initial $27.5million face value principal (“April 2022 Senior Convertible Note”) and an initial $11.25 million face value principal (“September 2022 Senior Convertible Note”), respectively. Both convertible notes are accounted for under the ASC 825-10-15-4 fair value option (“FVO”) election, wherein, the financial instrument is initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period date.

As discussed in Note 11, Debt, Lucid Diagnostics issued a Senior Secured Convertible Note dated March 21, 2023, with an initial $11.1 million face value principal (“Lucid March 2023 Senior Convertible Note”). This convertible note is also accounted for under the ASC 825-10-15-4 fair value option (“FVO”) election, wherein, the financial instrument is initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period date.

The estimated fair value of the financial instruments classified within the Level 3 category was determined using both observable inputs and unobservable inputs. Unrealized gains and losses associated with liabilities within the Level 3 category include changes in fair value attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in unobservable long- dated volatilities) inputs.

The estimated fair value of the Lucid March 2023 Senior Convertible Note as of each of March 21, 2023 and March 31,September 30, 2023, and the estimated fair value of the April 2022 Senior Convertible Note and the September 2022 Senior Convertible Note as of March 31,September 30, 2023, were computed using a Monte Carlo simulation of the present value of its cash flows using a synthetic credit rating analysis and a required rate-of-return, using the following assumptions:

Note 10 — Financial Instruments Fair Value Measurements- continued

Derivative Liability - Written Protective Put

The Company, through its majority-owned subsidiary Veris Health, entered into a Research and Development Agreement, with an effective date of May 31, 2023, with an unrelated third-party technical services provider (the “May 31, 2023 R&D Agreement”). The principal service to be provided by the service provider under the May 31, 2023 R&D Agreement was the continued development of the electronics and firmware for the Veris Health implantable physiologic monitor.

As discussed in Note 14, Common Stock and Common Stock Purchase Warrants, 1.5 million shares of PAVmed common stock were issued to the service provider as the consideration for a $750 portion of the services to be rendered under the May 31, 2023 R&D Agreement. The issued shares of common stock are (contingently) settlement-in-full of the consideration obligations of the Company under the May 31, 2023 R&D Agreement, subject-to a contractual “minimum fair market value” as such amount is discussed below.

The resolution of the contingent settlement-in-full with respect to the issued shares of common stock of the Company is predicated on and subject-to such issued shares having a $750 minimum “fair market value” (as defined), with such derived fair market value computed using a contractual formula based on the PAVmed Inc. common stock volume weighted average price per share (“VWAP”) during the last ten days of the six month anniversary of the May 31, 2023 R&D Agreement.

If the fair market value, as such amount is computed as described above, is equal-to or greater than $750, then no further contractual consideration is required. However, if such fair market value is less than $750, then, the Company will incur an additional contractual consideration obligation in amount equal to the difference between the required minimum fair market value of $750 and the contractual formula based computed fair market value. At the election of the Company, the additional contractual consideration obligation, if any, may be paid in cash or settled with the issue of additional shares of PAVmed common stock.

The contingent additional contractual consideration obligation is deemed to be a separate unit-of-account, in the form of a written protective put, and recognized as a derivative liability measured at estimated fair value. The derivative liability had an initial May 31, 2023 estimated fair value of approximately $262 which was recognized as an initial period charge classified in other income (expense) in the accompanying (unaudited) condensed consolidated statement of operations. Further, such recognized derivative liability is further remeasured at estimated fair value as of each quarterly reporting period date, with changes in the estimated fair value recognized as current period other income (expense), with such remeasurement recognized through the date of the final determination and settlement or extinguishment of the contingent additional contractual consideration obligation, if any. In this regard, as of September 30, 2023, the remeasured estimated fair value was approximately $291, with the change in the estimated fair value recognized as other income (expense).

 

The estimated fair value of the written protective put derivative liability, as such is discussed above, were computed using a Monte Carlo simulation to generate stock price paths (assuming geometric-Brownian motion) of the PAVmed Inc. common stock to compute the respective written protective put expected fair value, with the principal assumptions of such estimated fair value computation, for the respective measurement dates noted, as follows:

Schedule of Fair Value Assumption Used

Remaining expected term (years)  0.50   0.17 
Volatility  160.00%  240.00%
Risk free rate  5.30%  5.40%

The estimated fair values reportedrecognized with respect to the senior secured convertible debt and the written protective put derivative liability, as each is discussed above, utilized the Company’sPAVmed and Lucid’sLucid Diagnostics common stock prices, along with certain Level 3 inputs (as discussedpresented in the tablerespective tables above), in the development of Monte Carlo simulation models, discounted cash flow analyses, and /or Black-Scholes valuation models. The estimated fair values are subjective and are affected by changes in inputs to the valuation models and analyses, including the Company’s and Lucid’srespective common stock prices, the Company’s and Lucid’s dividend yields, the risk-free rates based on U.S. Treasury security yields, and certain other Level-3 inputs including, assumptions regarding the estimated volatility in the value of the Company’s and Lucid’srespective common stock prices. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the recognized estimated fair values.

Recent Developments

 

Business

 

PAVmed Strategic Business Update

 

In January 2023, PAVmed launched a strategic initiative designed to maximize cash runway and protect long-term shareholder interests through adjustments in near-term strategic priorities and associated resource allocation. The Company is currently focusing substantially all of its resources and near-term efforts on the commercialization of Lucid’s and Veris’ products.

 

Status of Lucid Clinical Trials and Publications

 

Lucid is currently seekingcontinues to accelerate its collection and publication of clinical utility data through a range of trials that can be efficiently executed.trials. These efforts include a plannedan investigator-initiated, retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data on the approximately 400 San Antonio fire fightersfirefighters who underwent testing as part of a community-sponsored cancer awareness event (in respect of which we expect to publish results in the first half of 2023);described below; a virtual-patient randomized controlled trial with intended recruitment of at least 100 physician participants (in respect of which we expect to publish results this year);participants; a Lucid-sponsored multi-center, prospective, observational study with 500 patients; and atwo Lucid-sponsored registry at existingregistries, in which Lucid Test Centers, whereby all patientscollects real-world clinical utility and clinical validity data on EsoGuard Esophageal DNA testing for the detection of esophageal precancer in two distinct populations.

With regard to the two registries, the Prospective REView of Esophageal Precancer DetectioN in AT-Risk Patients (PREVENT) Registry collects data on EsoGuard testing in the commercial increased-risk population, while the PREVENT-Fire Fighters (PREVENT-FF) Registry focuses exclusively on increased-risk firefighters. Complete data for the San Antonio firefighter study has been accepted for peer review publication in Journal of Gastrointestinal & Digestive System (ISSN: 2161-069X). Combined early interim results from the PREVENT and PREVENT-FF registries focusing on provider decision impact has also been accepted for peer review publication in Journal of Gastroenterology & Digestive Systems (ISSN: 2640-7477).

Interim results for the Lucid-sponsored observational study have been posted in preprint on medRxiv and are undergoing EsoCheck testing willjournal peer review. Enrollment for the Lucid-sponsored observational study is expected to be givencompleted by the opportunityend of the year. Similarly, results for the Lucid-sponsored virtual-patient study are expected to provide informed consent and contribute data about their risk factors, EsoGuard results, and subsequent diagnostic and/or therapeutic journey. Both Lucid-sponsored observational/registry studies expect to have preliminary results and/or interimbe ready for analysis before the end of 2023.

 

LucidDx Labs Laboratory Operations Update

On February 14, 2023, Lucid and its subsidiary, LucidDx Labs, entered into an agreement (the “MSA Termination Agreement”) with RDx, pursuant to which the parties mutually agreed to terminate the management service agreement between them (the “MSA-RDx”) without cause. The termination was effective as of February 10, 2023. Until the termination of the MSA-RDx, RDx had provided certain testing and related services for our laboratory in accordance with the terms of the MSA-RDx. In anticipation of the termination of the MSA-RDx, however, Lucid accelerated the development of internal resources necessary to operate its laboratory entirely on its own. Accordingly, we believe that termination of the MSA-RDx will improve the efficiency of the performance of the EsoGuard assay.

Among other things, the MSA Termination Agreement reduces the remaining amounts of the earnout payments and management fees due under the MSA-RDx and the related asset purchase agreement (the “APA-RDx”) to $0.7 million (from the $3.4 million that would otherwise have been payable under the MSA-RDx and APA-RDX, if the MSA-RDx had remained in effect through the balance of its stated term), resulting in a net savings to Lucid of $2.7 million. The payment was satisfied through the issuance of 553,436 shares of Lucid’s common stock on February 25, 2023. Lucid was not required to make any cash payments in connection with the termination.

#CheckYourFoodTube Events

In January 2023, Lucid completed its first #CheckYourFoodTube Precancer Testing Event, with the San Antonio Fire Department (the “SAFD”) during Firefighter Cancer Awareness Month as designated by the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF). A total of 391 members who were deemed to be at-risk for esophageal precancer, underwent a brief, on-site, noninvasive cell collection procedure, performed by our clinical personnel using EsoCheck. Firefighters with suspected esophageal precancer based on a positive EsoGuard result were identified, including some less than 40 years of age, and will undergo appropriate monitoring and treatment, as indicated by clinical practice guidelines, to prevent progression to esophageal cancer.

 

Since then, two additional screeningtesting events have been hosted with the SAFD, and similar events have been held with fire departments in Athens, GA, Barnstable, MA, Gainesville, FL, and Orange County, CA.throughout the country. These events which Lucid continues to expand across the country,are ongoing and are an extension of Lucid’s expanding satellite Lucid Test Center (“sLTC”) program, which brings Lucid precancer testing directly to patients—at their physician’s office and now at large testing day events.

 

Launch of Direct Contracting Strategic Initiative

 

In March 2023, Lucid launched a Direct Contracting Strategic Initiative (DCSI)(“DCSI”) to engage directly with large Administrative Services Only (ASO)(“ASO”) self-insured employers, unions and other entities, seeking to replicate the successes of other cancer screening diagnostic companies that have deployed similar strategies. In August 2023, the company announced it had contracted with the Ancira Automotive Group as a result of this initiative, providing access to esophageal precancer testing for its employees at all 12 San Antonio locations.

New Revenue Cycle Management Provider

In May 2023, Lucid began to transition claims submission responsibility to a new revenue cycle management provider that offered more robust capabilities for, among other things, claims processing and appeals. The provider upgrade has been completed and claim submissions resumed in June 2023. Since completing the transition, the upgrade has continued to demonstrate an improvement in speed of collections, turnaround time to claim submission, percentage of claims paid, and actionable data for appeals.

Lucid Personnel Update

Effective on November 6, 2023, the Lucid board of directors appointed Shaun M. O’Neil as the President of Lucid. Mr. O’Neil, who is 41 years old, also continues to serve as the Chief Operating Officer of PAVmed and as the Chief Operating Officer of Lucid. For additional biographical information about Mr. O’Neil, please refer to PAVmed’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed on May 1, 2023, which information is incorporated herein by reference. Other than in connection with his service as an officer of PAVmed and Lucid, Mr. O’Neil has not engaged in any transactions with PAVmed that are required to be reported pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. 

Veris Health Commercialization Update

 

In December 2022 Veris Health, PAVmed’s digital health subsidiary, commercially launched its Veris Cancer Care Platform™Platform by executing its first commercial contract with New Jersey Cancer Care, PA (“NJCC”), an oncology practice and member of the prestigious Quality Cancer Care Alliance. In February 2023, the Veris Cancer Care Platform went live following successful onboarding of the first cohort of cancer patients and their clinicians at NJCC. Enrolled patients received a VerisBox™VerisBox and began connecting their Bluetooth-enabled health care devices to transmit real-time physiologic data to the cloud-based Veris Cancer Care Platform clinician portal. The patients also began reporting symptoms and quality-of-life parameters through the Veris Cancer Care Platform patient smartphone app, which becameis now available for patients on the Apple App Store and Google Play. The cloud-based clinician portal was concurrently integrated into the oncology practice and the cancer care team began using it to review physiologic and clinical data and other remote patient monitoring (“RPM”) services. Since the Veris Cancer Care Platform went “live” in February, Veris added two additional accounts, expanding utilization of the product to a total of six locations across three oncology practices while continuing to seek to build a pipeline of prospective customers.

Under the leadership of its new President, Veris is actively restructuring and expanding its commercial team seeking to accelerate patient enrollment and subscription revenue, while also launching two strategic initiatives which expand its long-term commercial potential. These include:

25Building a Biopharma Companion Digital Platform module to extend the Veris Cancer Care Platform as a companion solution for biopharmaceutical companies developing novel cancer therapeutics. The module will provide these companies with a long-term patient monitoring solution tightly linked to their cancer therapeutic—from clinical-stage through full commercialization. This includes support for clinical trials and post-marketing surveillance to enhance safety by reducing adverse events, expedite regulatory filings, lower regulatory hurdles, and accelerate speed to market. The business model seeks to replicate the widespread success of companion diagnostics tightly linked to therapeutics.

Upgrading the Veris Cancer Care Platform from an FDA-designated Medical Device Data System (“MDDS”), limited to displaying medical data for clinicians without modification, to a Software-as-a-Medical-Device (“SaMD”). As a SaMD, the platform will have unlimited potential to grow into a full-bore clinical decision support tool that includes threshold alarms for faster provider response, analytical algorithms for effective triage, and digital biomarkers based on artificial intelligence and machine learning that will provide a risk assessment for cancer patients.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our current operational activities are principally focused on the commercialization of EsoGuard and the Veris Cancer Care Platform, and, as resources permit, our development activities would be focused on pursuing FDA approval and clearance of other lead products in our product portfolio pipeline. Our ability to generate revenue depends upon successfully advancing the commercialization of EsoGuard and the Veris Cancer Care Platform while, as resources permit, also completing the development and the necessary regulatory approvals of our other products and services. There are no assurances, however, we will be able to obtain an adequate level of financial resources required for the short-term or long-term commercialization and development of our products and services.

 

We have financed our operations principally through the public and private issuances of our common stock, preferred stock, common stock purchase warrants, and debt. We are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties typically faced by medical device and diagnostic and medical device companies that devote substantially all of their efforts to the commercialization of their initial product and services and ongoing R&D and clinical trials. We experienced a net loss before noncontrolling interests of approximately $22.2$61.9 million and used approximately $16.3$40.2 million of cash in operations for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023. Financing activities provided $24.8$25.9 million of cash during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023. We ended the quarter with cash on-hand of $49.3$26.4 million as of March 31,September 30, 2023. We expect to continue to experience recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations, and will continue to fund our operations with debt and/or equity financing transactions.transactions, including current obligations on the Company’s existing convertible debt which in accordance with management’s plans may include conversions to equity and refinancing our existing debt obligations to extend the maturity date. Notwithstanding, however, with the cash on-hand as of the date hereof and the other debt and equity committed sources of financing, described below, and conversion and refinancing of existing convertible notes, we expect to be able to fund our future operations for the one year period from the date of the issue of the our unaudited condensed consolidated Financial Statements, as included herein this Form 10-Q.
