Recent Developments On August 2, 2019, the Company closed an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of a total of 12,535,000 shares of its common stock. The shares were sold pursuant to a purchase agreement dated July 31, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between the Company and Piper Jaffray & Co., as representative of the several underwriters named therein, at a price to the public of $4.60 per Share. The closing of the Offering included the issuance and sale of 1,635,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, included within the total number of shares above, pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $54.0 million, including the net proceeds from the option shares. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures and continued research and development with respect to products and technologies. A portion of the net proceeds of the Offering may also be used to fund possible investments in or acquisitions of complementary businesses, products, or technologies. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) related to a quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are adequate to make the information not misleading. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 that was filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019, or any other future periods. Liquidity The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. A going concern basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s annual operating plan projects that its existing working capital at September 30, 2019 of $85.8 million (including cash of $57.8 million), which includes the net proceeds of $54.0 million received in August 2019 from the Offering, along with available draws on its working capital credit line with MidCap, allows the Company to fund its operations through at least one year subsequent to the date the financial statements are issued. The Company also has available an additional $20 million under the Expanded Credit Facility with Squadron Medical Finance Solutions LLC (“Squadron”), which can be drawn down any time on or before December 31, 2020, if and when needed. The Company has incurred significant net losses since inception and has relied on its ability to fund its operations through revenues from the sale of its products, equity financings and debt financings. As the Company has historically incurred losses, successful transition to profitability is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. Operating losses and negative cash flows are expected to continue for at least the next year as the Company continues to incur costs related to the execution of its operating plan and introduction of new products. In the future, the Company may need to seek additional funds from public and private equity or debt financings or other sources to fund its projected operating requirements. However, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain further financing, or do so on reasonable terms. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds on a timely basis, or at all, it would be materially adversely affected. As more fully described in Note 5, the Company’s debt agreements include traditional lending and reporting covenants, including a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio beginning in April 2020 and a minimum liquidity covenant of $5.0 million effective through March 2020. Should at any time the Company fail to maintain compliance with these covenants, the Company will need to seek waivers or amendments to the debt agreements. If the Company is unable to secure such waivers or amendments, it may be required to classify its obligations under the debt agreements in current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet. The Company may also be required to repay all or a portion of outstanding indebtedness under the debt agreements, which would require the Company to obtain further financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain further financing, or do so on reasonable terms. Reclassification Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. These reclassifications include the depreciation expense for surgical instruments, which was reclassified, to be consistent with industry practice, out of cost of revenues and into sales, general and administrative expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. This resulted in a reclassification of $1.3 million and $3.9 million of depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. In addition, general and administrative expense for 2018 was combined into a single line item with sales and marketing expense for a new expense line titled “Sales, general and administrative expense” and litigation-related expenses primarily pertaining to the ongoing litigation with NuVasive, Inc. were classified out of selling, general and administrative expense on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and onto its own expense line item. None of the adjustments had any effect on the prior period net loss.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019. Except as discussed below, these accounting policies have not changed during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. Operating Lease Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC No. 2016‑02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016‑02” or “ASC 842”), which supersedes the current accounting for leases, using the modified retrospective transition method. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedients allowed by the standard for existing leases. The new standard, while retaining two distinct types of leases, finance and operating, (i) requires lessees to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a related liability for the rights and obligations associated with a lease, regardless of lease classification, and recognize lease expense in a manner similar to current accounting, (ii) eliminates current real estate specific lease provisions, (iii) modifies the lease classification criteria and (iv) aligns many of the underlying lessor model principles with those in the new revenue standard. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its ROU asset and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter, if modified. The Company recognizes a ROU asset for its operating leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The lease term includes any renewal options and termination options that the Company is reasonably assured to exercise. The present value of lease payments is determined by using the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases determined by using the incremental borrowing rate of interest that the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company applied the new guidance to its existing facility lease at the time of adoption and recognized a ROU asset of $2.4 million and operating lease liability of $2.9 million as of March 31, 2019, the initial period of adoption, and removed the previous deferred rent balance under the previous lease guidance of approximately $0.6 million. The Company entered into another facility lease for smaller office space during the third quarter of 2019 and also applied this guidance to create an additional ROU asset and operating lease liability. The two leases are presented together on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term based on the total lease payments and is included in research and development and general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations. Beneficial Conversion Feature – SafeOp Convertible Notes In March 2019, the Company’s Convertible Note outstanding reached maturity and allowed for the noteholders to elect settlement in cash or shares of common stock. As the Convertible Note provided the holders the benefit to convert to shares of common stock, a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) with a calculated intrinsic fair value at issuance of $0.2 million existed as of the date the Convertible Note was able to be converted into shares of common stock. Although the holders elected for cash settlement, the BCF was required to be recognized as interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and within additional paid-in-capital within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Fair Value Measurements T he carrying amount of financial instruments consisting of cash, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued compensation and current portion of long-term debt included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are reasonable estimates of fair value due to their short maturities. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms, management believes the fair value of long-term debt approximates its carrying value. Authoritative guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: The Company does not maintain any financial assets that are considered to be Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 instruments as of September 30, 2019. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability assumed in the SafeOp acquisition was recorded as part of the purchase price consideration of the acquisition. using a probability-weighted income approach, utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving each of the potential milestones and an estimated discount rate related to the risks of the expected cash flows attributable to the milestones. using a probability-weighted income approach, utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving the specified market condition with the valuation updated at each reporting period. The full fair value of the cash settled award was $1.1 million as of September 30, 2019 and is being recognized ratably as the underlying service period is provided. The following table provides a reconciliation of liabilities measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (in thousands): Level 3 Liabilities Balance at January 1, 2019 $ 2,600 Settlement of Milestone #2 (2,889 ) Change in fair value measurement 289 Balance at March 31, 2019 — Vested portion of liability classified equity award 31 Balance at June 30, 2019 $ 31 Vested portion of liability classified equity award 63 Change in fair value measurement 8 Balance at September 30, 2019 $ 102 During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company achieved the second of the two milestones which was settled through the issuance of 886,843 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	6. Commitments and Contingencies Capital Lease The Company has one outstanding capital lease arrangement for the lease of equipment as of September 30, 2019 that matures in 2022. The lease bears interest at a rate of 6.40% per annum, is due in monthly principal and interest installments and is collateralized by the related equipment. The total capital lease commitment outstanding as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $0.1 million in both periods. Operating Lease The Company leases its buildings and certain equipment under operating leases which expire on various dates through 2021. Upon the Company’s adoption of ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, the Company recognized a ROU asset and lease liability for its building lease, assuming a 10.5% discount rate. Any short-term leases defined as 12 months or less or month-to-month leases were excluded and continue to be expensed each month. Total costs associated with these leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was immaterial. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for its buildings and certain equipment with lease terms of one year to 5.5 years, some of which include options to extend and/or terminate the lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion and were not included in the calculation of the Company’s lease liability as the Company is not able to determine without uncertainty if the renewal option will be exercised. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited to the expected term unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any variable lease payments, residual value guarantees or any restrictive covenants. The Company’s ROU asset represents the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date of the lease or the ASC 842 adoption date, whichever is later, based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When readily determinable, the Company uses the implicit rate in determining the present value of lease payments, or 10.5% as of the adoption date. When leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date or adoption date, including the lease term. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Future minimum annual lease payments under such leases are as follows as of September 30, 2019 (in thousands): Undiscounted lease payments: Year Ending December 31, Remainder of 2019 $ 356 2020 1,486 2021 920 2022 41 Total undiscounted lease payments 2,803 Less: present value adjustment (275 ) Operating lease liability 2,528 Less: current portion of operating lease liability (1,263 ) Operating lease liability, less current portion $ 1,265 As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s remaining lease term is years The Company paid $0.4 million and $1.0 million of cash payments related to its operating lease agreements Litigation The Company is and may become involved in various legal proceedings arising from its business activities. While management is not aware of any litigation matter that in and of itself would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and depending on the nature and timing of a proceeding, an unfavorable resolution could materially affect the Company’s future consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position in a particular period. The Company assesses contingencies to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss for potential accrual or disclosure in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. An estimated loss contingency is accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. When evaluating contingencies, the Company may be unable to provide a meaningful estimate due to a number of factors, including the procedural status of the matter in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and/or the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matters. In addition, damage amounts claimed in litigation against the Company may be unsupported, exaggerated or unrelated to reasonably possible outcomes, and as such are not meaningful indicators of the Company’s potential liability. On February 13, 2018, NuVasive, Inc. filed suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California ( NuVasive, Inc. v. Alphatec Holdings, Inc. et al. , Case No. 3:18-cv-00347-CAB-MDD (S.D. Cal.)), alleging that certain of the Company’s products (including components of the Battalion™ Lateral System), infringe, or contribute to the infringement of, U.S. Patent Nos. 7,819,801, 8,355,780, 8,439,832, 8,753,270, 9,833,227 (entitled “Surgical access system and related methods”), U.S. Patent No. 8,361,156 (entitled “Systems and methods for spinal fusion”), and U.S. Design Patent Nos. D652,519 (“Dilator”) and D750,252 (“Intervertebral Implant”). NuVasive is seeking unspecified monetary damages and a court injunction against future infringement by the Company. On March 8, 2018, the Company moved to dismiss NuVasive’s claims of infringement of its design patents on the grounds that those allegations fail to state a cognizable legal claim. On May 14, 2018, the Court ruled that NuVasive had failed to state a plausible claim for infringement of the asserted design patents and granted the Company’s motion to dismiss those claims with prejudice, as any further amendment would be futile. The Company filed its answer, affirmative defenses and counterclaims to NuVasive’s remaining claims on May 21, 2018. On March 26, 2018, NuVasive moved for a preliminary injunction, which, on March 27, 2018, the Court denied without prejudice for failure to comply with the Court’s chambers rules. On April 5, 2018, NuVasive again moved for a preliminary injunction. The Court held a hearing on the matter, having been fully briefed, on June 21, 2018. On July 10, 2018, the Court ruled that NuVasive had failed to establish either likelihood of success on the merits of its remaining claims or that it would suffer irreparable harm in the absence of a preliminary injunction. Accordingly, the Court denied NuVasive’s motion for preliminary injunction. On September 13, 2018, NuVasive filed an Amended Complaint for Patent Infringement, asserting additional infringement claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 9,924,859, 9,974,531 and 8,187,334. The Company filed its answer, affirmative defenses and counterclaims to NuVasive’s claims on October 12, 2018. On October 26, 2018, NuVasive moved to dismiss the Company’s counterclaims that intentionally had misled the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office as a means of obtaining certain patents asserted against the Company . On January 30, 2019, the Court denied NuVasive’s motion as to all but one of the Company’s counterclaims. The Court granted NuVasive’s motion with respect to one counterclaim, but granted the Company leave to amend its counterclaim to cure the dismissal. The Company amended that counterclaim on February 14, 2019. On February 28, 2019, NuVasive moved to dismiss the amended counterclaim. On March 29, 2019, the Court denied NuVasive’s motion. NuVasive filed its Answer to the amended counterclaim on April 12, 2019. On December 13, 2018, the Company filed a petition with the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) challenging the validity of certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,361,156. U.S. Patent No. 8,187,334 On February 6, 2019, upon joint motion of the parties, the Court stayed all proceedings in this matter, except as noted above, pending PTAB’s determination of whether to institute inter partes of the asserted claims of the two patents at issue and vacated the trial date. On July 9, 2019, PTAB instituted inter partes review of the validity of asserted claims of the two patents at issue. The Company expects PTAB to issue its final decisions regarding the validity of these claims in the second half of 2020. On July 16, 2019, the parties submitted a joint statement to the Court regarding PTAB’s decisions and the parties’ respective recommendations regarding the current stay of proceedings. On August 6, 2019, the Court vacated the stay as to asserted claims concerning those patents at issue not presently before PTAB and continued the stay as to the ‘156 and ‘334 Patents. Trial has been set for April 27, 2020. The Company believes that the allegations lack merit and intends to vigorously defend all claims asserted. A liability is recorded in the consolidated financial statements if it is believed to be probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, Indemnifications In the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements under which it occasionally indemnifies third-parties for intellectual property infringement claims or claims arising from breaches of representations or warranties. In addition, from time to time, the Company provides indemnity protection to third-parties for claims relating to past performance arising from undisclosed liabilities, product liabilities, environmental obligations, representations and warranties, and other claims. In these agreements, the scope and amount of remedy, or the period in which claims can be made, may be limited. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of future payments, if any, due under these indemnities due to the conditional nature of the obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each agreement. In October 2017, NuVasive filed a lawsuit in Delaware Chancery Court against Mr. Miles, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, who was a former officer and board member of NuVasive. The Company itself was not initially a named defendant in this lawsuit; however, on June 28, 2018, NuVasive amended its complaint to add the Company as a defendant. As of September 30, 2019, the Company has not recorded any liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet related to this matter. On October 12, 2018, the Delaware Court ordered that NuVasive begin advancing a portion of the legal fees for Mr. Miles’ defense in the lawsuit, as well as Mr. Miles’ legal fees incurred in pursuing advancement of his fees, pursuant to an indemnification agreement between NuVasive and Mr. Miles. Royalties The Company has entered into various intellectual property agreements requiring the payment of royalties based on the sale of products that utilize such intellectual property. These royalties primarily relate to products sold by Alphatec Spine and are based on fixed fees or calculated either as a percentage of net sales or on a per-unit sold basis. Royalties are included on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as a component of cost of revenues. As of September 30, 2019, the Company is obligated to pay guaranteed minimum royalty payments under these agreements of approximately $5.0 million through 2023 and beyond.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisition of SafeOp Surgical, Inc.	8. Acquisition of SafeOp Surgical, Inc. On March 9, 2018, the Company acquired SafeOp, a privately-held provider of neuromonitoring technology designed to enable effective intra-operative nerve health assessment. At the time of the acquisition, SafeOp had FDA 510(k) approval for a somatosensory evoked potential (“SSEP”) monitoring technology. The Company has developed a product that will allow for both free run and triggered specific recording of muscle activity, also known as Electromyography (“EMG”). The Company received FDA clearance for SafeOp’s EMG technology in February 2019 to complement the SSEP solution, and anticipates commercialization of the combined technology solution in mid-2019. In addition to expanding the Company’s market presence in lateral spine surgery, the Company believes that the SafeOp solution will allow it to integrate neuromonitoring into its broader product portfolio and accelerate the transition to procedural integration of the entire portfolio. Under the term of the definitive merger agreement, the Company paid $15.1 million in cash and issued 3,265,132 shares of common stock. The Company paid the full $15.1 million in cash consideration during the year ended December 31, 2018. On March 8, 2018, the Company issued 2,975,209 shares of common stock valued at $9.8 million, based on the closing share price of $3.30, and issued an additional 115,621 shares of common stock during the second quarter of 2018 and the remaining 174,302 during the third quarter of 2018. In March 2018, the Company also issued $3 million in convertible notes that were convertible into a total of 987,578 shares of common stock, which included total interest incurred, and issued warrants to purchase 2.2 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share and contain a five year life. The convertible notes matured on March 9, 2019 and were settled in cash. Upon maturity, the Company recognized the value associated with the beneficial conversion feature calculated at issuance of $0.2 million within interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Shares of common stock were issued upon achievement of post-closing milestones as described further below. The warrants remain outstanding as of September 30, 2019. The first of the two milestones was achieved during the year ended December 31, 2018 and resulted in the issuance of 443,421 shares of common stock as payment. The second milestone pertaining to regulatory approval was achieved and the Company issued 886,843 shares of common stock as payment during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Prior to achievement, the contingent consideration was recorded as a liability and measured at fair value using a probability-weighted income approach, utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving each of the potential milestones and an estimated discount rate related to the risks of the expected cash flows attributable to the milestones. The fair value of the contingent consideration, and the associated liability relating to the contingent consideration at each reporting date, was re-assessed with the changes in fair value reflected in earnings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the fair value for the contingent consideration increased by $0.3 million due to the proximity of the achievement of the milestone. The amount was recorded within research and development expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and a corresponding increase in the liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The full liability was relieved upon achievement of the remaining milestone during the period.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Loss Per Share	9. Net Loss Per Share Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of this calculation, common stock subject to repurchase by the Company, convertible preferred stock, options, convertible notes and warrants are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is dilutive. The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for continuing and discontinued operations (in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Numerator: Net loss: Continuing operations $ (14,543 ) $ (9,313 ) $ (39,865 ) $ (18,231 ) Discontinued operations (24 ) (42 ) (106 ) (116 ) Net loss $ (14,567 ) $ (9,355 ) $ (39,971 ) $ (18,347 ) Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding 56,010 42,497 49,528 32,658 Weighted average unvested common shares subject to repurchase (274 ) — (276 ) — Weighted average common shares outstanding—basic and diluted 55,736 42,497 49,252 32,658 Net loss per share, basic and diluted: Continuing operations $ (0.26 ) $ (0.22 ) $ (0.81 ) $ (0.56 ) Discontinued operations $ (0.00 ) $ (0.00 ) $ (0.00 ) $ (0.00 ) Net loss per share, basic and diluted $ (0.26 ) $ (0.22 ) $ (0.81 ) $ (0.56 ) The anti-dilutive securities not included in diluted net As of September 30, 2019 2018 Options to purchase common stock 4,270 4,880 Unvested restricted share awards 6,755 3,542 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock 67 2,022 Convertible Notes — 988 Warrants to purchase common stock 26,739 20,932 Total 37,831 32,364

The 2017 Banker Warrants were for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 471,600 shares of the Company’s common stock with substantially the same terms as the 2017 Common Stock Warrants, except that they have an exercise price equal $2.50 per share. The 2017 Common Stock Warrants and the 2017 Banker Warrants (collectively, the “2017 Warrants”) expire on June 15, 2022. The 2017 Warrants may not be exercised by the holder to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own, after such exercise more than 4.99% of the shares of the Company’s common stock then outstanding (subject to the right of the holder to increase or decrease such beneficial ownership limitation upon notice to the Company, provided that such limitation cannot exceed 9.99%) and provided that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation shall not be effective until 61 days after such notice is delivered.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock On March 8, 2018, the Company completed the 2018 Private Placement to certain institutional and accredited investors, including certain directors and executive officers of the Company, at a purchase price of $1,000 per share, 45,200 of newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which shares of preferred stock were automatically converted into 14,349,236 shares of the Company’s common stock upon approval by the Company’s stockholders at the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders held in May 2018, and warrants to purchase up to 12,196,851 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share (the “2018 Common Stock Warrants”). The 2018 Common Stock Warrants became exercisable following stockholder approval at the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, are subject to certain ownership limitations in certain cases, and expire five years after the date of such stockholder approval. The gross proceeds from the 2018 Private Placement were approximately $45.2 million. Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement entered into in connection with the 2018 Private Placement, from the date of the stockholder approval of the 2018 Private Placement, or May 17, 2018, through the first anniversary of the effective date of the resale registration statement related to the 2018 Private Placement, or May 11, 2019, if the Company had issued any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents, subject to certain permitted exceptions, at a price below the conversion price on the date stockholder approval was obtained (a “Dilutive Issuance”), the Company was required to issue an additional number of shares of common stock to the purchasers in the 2018 Private Placement in amount equal the number of shares of common stock such purchasers would have received if the Dilutive Issuance occurred prior to the date the Company’s stockholders approved the 2018 Private Placement. No such Dilutive Issuances occurred prior to the expiration. 2018 Warrants The 2018 Common Stock Warrants (the “2018 Warrants”) have a five year life and are exercisable for cash or by cashless exercise. Some of the 2018 Warrants may not be exercised by the holder to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own, after such exercise more than 4.99% of the shares of the Company’s common stock then outstanding (subject to the right of the holder to increase or decrease such beneficial ownership limitation upon notice to the Company, provided that such limitation cannot exceed 9.99%) and provided that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation shall not be effective until 61 days after such notice is delivered. In addition to the 12,196,851 During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, 0.2 million of the 2018 Warrants were exercised for total proceeds of $0.6 million. No 2018 Warrants were exercised for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. A total of 13,827,473 2018 Warrants remained outstanding as of September 30, 2019. All the 2018 Warrants were deemed to qualify for equity classification under authoritative accounting guidance. Squadron Warrants As further described in Note 5, during the year ended December 31, 2018, in connection with the initial debt financing with Squadron, the Company issued warrants to purchase 845,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.15 per share. An additional 4,838,710 warrants were issued at an exercise price of $2.17 per share during the second quarter of 2019, in conjunction with the Company’s draw on the expanded credit facility for total warrants outstanding to Squadron of 5,683,710. The warrants have a seven-year term and are immediately exercisable. In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, the warrants classified for equity treatment upon issuance and the portion allocated to the outstanding debt were recorded as a debt discount to the face of the debt liability based on fair value to be amortized into interest expense over the life of the debt agreement. As the warrants provide for partial price protection that allow for a reduction in the price in the event of a lower per share priced issuance, the warrants were valued utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation that considers the probabilities of future financings. The Monte Carlo model simulates the present value of the potential outcomes of future stock prices of the Company over the seven-year life of the warrants. The projection of stock prices is based on the risk-free rate of return and the volatility of the stock price of the Company and correlates future equity raises based on the probabilities provided. A summary of all outstanding warrants is as follows: Number of Warrants Strike Price 2017 Common Stock Warrants 3,357,000 $ 2.00 2017 Banker Warrants 148,554 $ 2.50 2018 Common Stock Warrants 13,827,473 $ 3.50 Merger Warrants 2,200,000 $ 3.50 Executive 1,327,434 $ 5.00 Squadron Capital 845,000 $ 3.15 Squadron Capital 4,838,710 $ 2.17 Other 195,312 $ 3.85 * Total 26,739,483 * - Represents weighted average exercise price. 2017 Distributor Inducement Plan In December 2017, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the 2017 Distributor Inducement Plan which authorizes the Company to issue to distributors restricted shares of common stock of the Company and/or warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock.

Each warrant and common stock issuance is subject to a time-based or net sales-based vesting provision. The Board of Directors authorized the grant of up to 1.0 million shares of common stock under the 2017 Distributor Inducement Plan and also authorized the grant of warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock, and 75,000 restricted stock units to a distributor of which 75,000 were earned and issued. These warrants and restricted stock units are subject to time based and net sales based vesting conditions. As of September 30, 2019, 0.2 million warrants and 92,000 shares of common stock were earned and issued under the 2017 Distributor Inducement Plan. Total expense for the plan was $0.1 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 September 30, 2019 2017 Development Services Plan In December 2017, the Board approved and adopted the 2017 Development Services Plan which authorizes the Company to enter into Development Services Agreements with third-party individuals or entities whereby, upon the achievement of certain Company financial and commercial revenue milestones, future royalty payments for product and/or intellectual property development work may be paid in either cash or restricted shares of Company common stock at the option of the developer. Each common stock issuance would be subject to net sales-based vesting provisions and satisfaction of applicable laws and market regulations regarding the issuance of restricted shares to such developers. The Board of Directors authorized the grant of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock under the Development Services Plan. As of September 30, 2019, 2.4 million shares of restricted common stock have been granted under the 2017 Development Services Plan, but none are deemed probable of election as of September 30, 2019.

Income Taxes	11. Income Taxes To calculate its interim tax provision, at the end of each interim period the Company estimates the annual effective tax rate and applies that to its ordinary quarterly earnings. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates or tax status is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences between book and tax amounts, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or the tax environment changes. Intraperiod tax allocation rules require the Company to allocate the provision for income taxes between continuing operations and other categories of earnings, such as discontinued operations. In periods in which the Company has a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, such as discontinued operations, the Company must allocate the tax provision to the other categories of earnings, and then record a related tax benefit in continuing operations. The unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $4.4 million for both periods, with no changes occurring during the year-to-date period. With the facts and circumstances currently available to the Company, it is reasonably possible that the amount of reserves that could reverse over the next 12 months is approximately $0.1 million. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of the income tax provision. The Company is not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service, foreign, or state or local tax authorities. The income tax benefit from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedients allowed by the standard for existing leases. The new standard, while retaining two distinct types of leases, finance and operating, (i) requires lessees to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a related liability for the rights and obligations associated with a lease, regardless of lease classification, and recognize lease expense in a manner similar to current accounting, (ii) eliminates current real estate specific lease provisions, (iii) modifies the lease classification criteria and (iv) aligns many of the underlying lessor model principles with those in the new revenue standard. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its ROU asset and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter, if modified. The Company recognizes a ROU asset for its operating leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The lease term includes any renewal options and termination options that the Company is reasonably assured to exercise. The present value of lease payments is determined by using the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases determined by using the incremental borrowing rate of interest that the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company applied the new guidance to its existing facility lease at the time of adoption and recognized a ROU asset of $2.4 million and operating lease liability of $2.9 million as of March 31, 2019, the initial period of adoption, and removed the previous deferred rent balance under the previous lease guidance of approximately $0.6 million. The Company entered into another facility lease for smaller office space during the third quarter of 2019 and also applied this guidance to create an additional ROU asset and operating lease liability. The two leases are presented together on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term based on the total lease payments and is included in research and development and general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations.
Beneficial Conversion Feature - SafeOp Convertible Notes	Beneficial Conversion Feature – SafeOp Convertible Notes In March 2019, the Company’s Convertible Note outstanding reached maturity and allowed for the noteholders to elect settlement in cash or shares of common stock. As the Convertible Note provided the holders the benefit to convert to shares of common stock, a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) with a calculated intrinsic fair value at issuance of $0.2 million existed as of the date the Convertible Note was able to be converted into shares of common stock. Although the holders elected for cash settlement, the BCF was required to be recognized as interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and within additional paid-in-capital within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements T he carrying amount of financial instruments consisting of cash, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued compensation and current portion of long-term debt included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are reasonable estimates of fair value due to their short maturities. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms, management believes the fair value of long-term debt approximates its carrying value. Authoritative guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: The Company does not maintain any financial assets that are considered to be Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 instruments as of September 30, 2019. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability assumed in the SafeOp acquisition was recorded as part of the purchase price consideration of the acquisition. using a probability-weighted income approach, utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving each of the potential milestones and an estimated discount rate related to the risks of the expected cash flows attributable to the milestones. using a probability-weighted income approach, utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving the specified market condition with the valuation updated at each reporting period. The full fair value of the cash settled award was $1.1 million as of September 30, 2019 and is being recognized ratably as the underlying service period is provided. The following table provides a reconciliation of liabilities measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (in thousands): Level 3 Liabilities Balance at January 1, 2019 $ 2,600 Settlement of Milestone #2 (2,889 ) Change in fair value measurement 289 Balance at March 31, 2019 — Vested portion of liability classified equity award 31 Balance at June 30, 2019 $ 31 Vested portion of liability classified equity award 63 Change in fair value measurement 8 Balance at September 30, 2019 $ 102 During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company achieved the second of the two milestones which was settled through the issuance of 886,843 shares of the Company’s common stock.
