As of December 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1.1 billion.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had a total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments balance of $162.0 million. In January 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (Securities Purchase Agreements) with various investors pursuant to which it sold 843,908 shares of its Series A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A Preferred Stock) at a price of $200.00 per share in an offering (the Private Placement). Subject to the stockholder approval and beneficial ownership limitations, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 250 shares of common stock for an aggregate of 210,977,000 shares of common stock. The gross proceeds from the Private Placement, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses, were $168.8 million. An additional $3.9 million, for 19,432 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, will be invested by certain members of the Board of Directors and management upon shareholder approval.
In addition, in January 2025, the Company entered into a credit agreement and guaranty (the Perceptive Credit Agreement) with Perceptive Credit Holdings IV, LP, as administrative agent (Agent) and the lenders from time to time party thereto, which provided a $100 million 5-year term loan at closing and will provide an additional term loan of up to $25 million at our election, which is available for funding until July 14, 2027.
Starting January 2025, the Company is required to comply with certain covenants under the Perceptive Credit Agreement including, among others, requirements as to financial reporting, restrictions on its ability to incur additional indebtedness and to pay any dividends or other distributions on capital stock, maintenance of a minimum cash balance, and achievement of certain specified trailing twelve-month net revenue targets. If the Company fails to comply with any covenants, payments or other terms of the Perceptive Credit Agreement and such failure constitutes an event of default, such event of default would give Agent the right to declare all borrowings outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest and fees, to be immediately due and payable. Further details of obligations under the Perceptive Credit Agreement are described in Note 13.
While the Company has taken actions to reduce operating expenses and working capital to align with anticipated revenue growth including implementing restructuring plans to streamline its overall organizational structure and renegotiating commitments with suppliers to reduce inventory, management expects to continue to incur operating losses in the near term while the Company makes investments to support its anticipated growth.
