NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

  a. General
     
    InspireMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is a medical device company focusing on the development and commercialization of its proprietary MicroNet™ stent platform technology for the treatment of complex vascular and coronary disease. MicroNet, a micron mesh sleeve, is wrapped over a stent to provide embolic protection in stenting procedures.
     
    The Company’s carotid product (CGuard™ EPS) combines MicroNet and a self-expandable nitinol stent in a single device to treat carotid artery disease.
     
    The Company’s coronary product combining MicroNet and a bare-metal stent (MGuard Prime™ EPS) is marketed for use in patients with acute coronary syndromes, notably acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) and saphenous vein graft coronary interventions (bypass surgery). Over the past years there has been a shift in industry preferences away from bare-metal stents, such as MGuard Prime EPS in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (“STEMI”) patients. As a result of declining sales of the MGuard Prime EPS, which we believe this is largely driven by the predominant industry preferences favoring drug-eluting, or drug-coated, stents, we intend to phase out future sales of our MGuard Prime EPS in 2022.
     
    The Company markets its products through distributors in international markets, mainly in Europe.
     
    As of the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has the ability to fund its planned operations for at least the next 12 months. However, the Company expects to continue incurring losses and negative cash flows from operations until its products (primarily CGuard™ EPS) reach commercial profitability. Therefore, in order to fund the Company’s operations until such time that the Company can generate substantial revenues, the Company may need to raise additional funds.
   

 

  b. COVID-19 Pandemic
     
   

The COVID-19 global pandemic has led governments and authorities around the globe to take various precautionary measures in order to limit the spread of COVID-19, including government-imposed quarantines, lockdowns, and other public health safety measures. We experienced a significant COVID-19 related impact on our financial condition and results of operations, primarily during the year ended December 31, 2020, which we primarily attribute to the postponement of CGuard EPS procedures (non-emergency procedures), as hospitals have shifted resources to patients affected by COVID-19. To the best of our knowledge, the European countries in which we operate reinstated non-emergency procedures. However, new COVID-19 variants, and potentially increasing infection rates make the current COVID-related environment highly volatile and uncertain and we anticipate that the continuation of the pandemic and related restrictions and safety measures will likely result in continued fluctuations in sales of our products and potentially enrollments in our studies as well as potential disruptions to our supply chain for the upcoming periods

     
  c. Risks Related to the Geopolitical and Military Tensions Between Russia and Ukraine in Europe
     
    In February 2022, Russia launched a military invasion into Ukraine. The Company derived approximately 10.5% of total sales in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus in 2021 while in 2022 there were no sales in Russia and Ukraine and minimal sales in Belarus. The escalation of geopolitical instability in Russia and Ukraine as well as currency fluctuations in the Russian Ruble could negatively impact the Company’s operations, sales, and future growth prospects in that region. As a result of the crisis in Ukraine both the United States and the EU have implemented sanctions against certain Russian individuals and entities and have made it more difficult for us to collect on outstanding accounts receivable from customers in this region. The Company’s global operations expose us to risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or the market price of our securities, including the potential for increased tensions between the United States and Russia resulting from the current situation involving Russia and Ukraine, tariffs, economic sanctions and import-export restrictions imposed by either nation, and retaliatory actions by the other nation, as well as the potential negative impact on our business and sales in Russia. Current geopolitical instability in Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions by the U.S. government against certain companies and individuals may hinder our ability to conduct business with potential or existing customers and vendors in these countries. The U.S. government has imposed sanctions through several executive orders restricting U.S. companies from conducting business with specified Russian and Ukrainian individuals and companies. While the Company believes that the executive orders currently do not preclude us from conducting business with our current customers or vendors in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus, the sanctions imposed by the U.S. government may be expanded in the future to restrict the Company from engaging with them. If the Company is unable to conduct business with new or existing customers or vendors or pursue business opportunities in Russia, Ukraine or Belarus, its business, including revenue, profitability and cash flows, and operations could be adversely affected. The Company cannot provide assurance that current sanctions or potential future changes in sanctions will not have a material impact on our operations in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus or on our financial results.

  b.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company granted to employees and consultants’ options to purchase a total of 47,841 shares of the Company’s common stock. The options have an exercise price ranging from $2.61 - $2.69 per share, which was the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. 7,841 options are subject to a three-year vesting period, with one-third of such awards vesting each year and 40,000 options with performance conditions, mainly related to clinical activities.

 

In calculating the fair value of the above options, the Company used the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0% and expected term of 5.5-6.5 years; expected volatility ranging from 127.92%-130.93%; and risk-free interest rate ranging from 1.79%-1.9%.

 

The fair value of the above options, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was approximately $104,124.

 

  c.

During the three months ended March 30, 2022, the Company granted 26,183 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to employees. The shares are subject to a three-year vesting period, with one-third of such awards vesting each year.

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTIES TRANSACTIONS

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, a consulting company whose founder and CEO is our board member provided certain marketing services in the amount of $6,276

 

NOTE 5 - NET LOSS PER SHARE:

 

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share excludes potential share issuances of common stock upon the exercise of share options, warrants, and restricted stocks as the effect is anti-dilutive.

 

The total number of shares of common stock related to outstanding options, warrants, restricted stock, restricted stock units, Series C Preferred Stock and placement agent units excluded from the calculations of diluted loss per share were 2,903,634 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022.

 

The total number of shares of common stock related to outstanding options, warrants, restricted stock, restricted stock units, Series C Preferred Stock and placement agent units excluded from the calculations of diluted loss per share were 2,164,985 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021.

 

NOTE 6 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

 

a.Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying amounts of financial instruments included in working capital approximate their fair value either because these amounts are presented at fair value or due to the relatively short-term maturities of such instruments.

 

b.As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements,” which include information relating to future events, future financial performance, strategies, expectations, competitive environment and regulation. Words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or our management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

 

  ● our need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the future and such capital raising may be costly or difficult to obtain and could dilute out stockholders’ ownership interests;
     
  ● the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our manufacturing, sales, business plan and the global economy;
     
  ● negative clinical trial results or lengthy product delays in key markets;
     
  ● our ability to maintain compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards;
     
  ● our ability to generate revenues from our products and obtain and maintain regulatory approvals for our products;

  ● our dependence on a single manufacturing facility and our ability to comply with stringent manufacturing quality standards;
     
  ● our ability to increase production as necessary;
     
  ● the risk that the data collected from our current and planned clinical trials may not be sufficient to demonstrate that our technology is an attractive alternative to other procedures and products;
     
  ● market acceptance of our products;
     
  ● an inability to secure and maintain regulatory approvals for the sale of our products;
     
  ● intense competition in our industry, with competitors having greater financial, technological, research and development, regulatory and clinical, manufacturing, marketing and sales, distribution and personnel resources than we do;
     
  ● entry of new competitors and products and potential technological obsolescence of our products;
     
  ● inability to carry out research, development and commercialization plans;

  ● loss of a key customer or supplier;
     
  ● technical problems with our research and products and potential product liability claims;
     
  ● product malfunctions;
     
  ● price increases for supplies and components;
     
  ● adverse economic conditions;
     
  ● insufficient or inadequate reimbursement by governmental and other third-party payers for our products;
     
  ● adverse federal, state and local government regulation in the United States, Europe, Israel and other foreign jurisdictions;
     
  ● the fact that we conduct business in multiple foreign jurisdictions, exposing us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, logistical and communications challenges, burdens and costs of compliance with foreign laws and political and economic volatility in certain jurisdictions;
     
  ● the escalation of hostilities in Israel, which could impair our ability to manufacture our products; and
     
  ● loss or retirement of key executives and research scientists.

 

The foregoing does not represent an exhaustive list of matters that may be covered by the forward-looking statements contained herein or risk factors that we are faced with that may cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. For a discussion of these and other risks that relate to our business and investing in our common stock, you should carefully review the risks and uncertainties described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which any such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

All information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relating to shares or price per share reflects the 1-for-15 reverse stock split effected by us on April 26, 2021.

 

Overview

 

We are a medical device company focusing on the development and commercialization of our proprietary MicroNet™ stent platform technology for the treatment of complex vascular and coronary disease. A stent is an expandable “scaffold-like” device, usually constructed of a metallic material, that is inserted into an artery to expand the inside passage and improve blood flow. MicroNet, a micron mesh sleeve, is wrapped over a stent to provide embolic protection in stenting procedures.

 

Our CGuard™ carotid embolic prevention system (“CGuard EPS”) combines MicroNet and a self-expandable nitinol stent in a single device for use in carotid artery applications. Our CGuard EPS received CE mark approval in the European Union in March 2013 and was fully launched in Europe in September 2015. Subsequently, we launched CGuard EPS in Russia and certain countries in Latin America and Asia, including India. In September 2020, we launched CGuard EPS in Brazil after receiving regulatory approval in July 2020 and on February 3, 2021, we executed a distribution agreement with Chinese partners for the purpose of expanding our presence in China. Currently, we are seeking strategic partners for a potential launch of CGuard EPS in Japan and other Asian countries.

On September 8, 2020, we received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) of our Investigation Device Exemption (“IDE”), thereby allowing us to proceed with a pivotal study of our CGuard™ Carotid Stent System, C-Guardians, for prevention of stroke in patients in the United States. C-Guardians is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, pivotal study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CGuard™ Carotid Stent System when used to treat symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis in patients undergoing carotid artery stenting. The trial was designed to enroll approximately 315 subjects in a maximum of 40 study sites located in the United States and Europe. Study sites in Europe may contribute a maximum of approximately 50% of the total enrollees. The primary endpoint of the study will be the composite of incidence of death (all-cause mortality), all stroke, and myocardial infarction (DSMI) through 30-days post-index procedure, based on the clinical events committee (CEC) adjudication and ipsilateral stroke from 31-365 day follow-up, based on Clinical Events Committee (CEC) adjudication.

 

On July 23, 2021, we announced the initiation of enrollment and successful completion of the first cases of our C-Guardian trial of CGuard EPS. The first patients, who were under the care of principal investigator, Chris Metzger, M.D., system chair of clinical research at Ballard Health System in Eastern Tennessee, were successfully implanted with the CGuard EPS stent device. These are the first of 315 patients who are expected to be enrolled in the trial and receive CGuard EPS in the treatment of carotid artery stenosis in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients undergoing carotid artery stenting. We are currently continuing with the enrollment phase. In April 2022, we completed our first European recruitment.

 

Additionally, we intend to continue to invest in current and future potential product and manufacturing enhancements for CGuard EPS that are expected to reduce cost of goods and/or provide the best-in-class performing delivery system. In furtherance of our strategy that focuses on establishing CGuard EPS as a viable alternative to vascular surgery, we are exploring adding new delivery systems and accessory solutions for procedural protection to our portfolio.

 

We consider the current addressable market for our CGuard EPS to be individuals with diagnosed, symptomatic high-grade carotid artery stenosis (HGCS, ≥70% occlusion) for whom intervention is preferable to medical (drug) therapy. This group includes not only carotid artery stenting patients but also individuals undergoing carotid endarterectomy, as the two approaches compete for the same patient population. Assuming full penetration of the intervention caseload by CGuard EPS, we estimate that the addressable market for CGuard EPS will be approximately $666 million in 2022 (source: Health Research International Personal Medical Systems, Inc. September 13, 2021 Results of Update Report on Global Carotid Stenting Procedures and Markets by Major Geography and Addressable Markets). According to this same report, assuming full penetration of the caseload for all individuals diagnosed with high-grade carotid artery stenosis, we estimate that the total available market for CGuard EPS in 2022 will be approximately $5 billion.

 

Our MGuard™ Prime™ embolic protection system (“MGuard Prime EPS”) is marketed for use in patients with acute coronary syndromes, notably acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) and saphenous vein graft coronary interventions, or bypass surgery. MGuard Prime EPS combines MicroNet with a bare-metal cobalt-chromium based stent. MGuard Prime EPS received CE mark approval in the European Union in October 2010 for improving luminal diameter and providing embolic protection. Over the past years there has been a shift in industry preferences away from bare-metal stents, such as MGuard Prime EPS in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (“STEMI”) patients. As a result of declining sales of the MGuard Prime EPS, which we believe this is largely driven by the predominant industry preferences favoring drug-eluting, or drug-coated, stents, we intend to phase out future sales of our MGuard Prime EPS in 2022.

 

Our pipeline of innovative delivery solutions such as CGuard Prime and SwitchGuard are anticipated to launch early 2023, to facilitate greater utilization of our devices as first line solution for carotid artery disease management.

 

We also intend to develop a pipeline of other products and additional applications by leveraging our MicroNet technology to improve peripheral procedures such as the treatment of the superficial femoral artery disease and vascular disease below the knee as well as neurovascular procedures, such as the treatment of acute stroke.

 

Presently, none of our products may be sold or marketed in the United States, but we do derive revenues from the use of our products in the currently ongoing trials.

 

We were organized in the State of Delaware on February 29, 2008.

Recent Developments

 

The COVID-19 global pandemic has led governments and authorities around the globe to take various precautionary measures in order to limit the spread of COVID-19, including government-imposed quarantines, lockdowns, and other public health safety measures. We experienced a significant COVID-19 related impact on our financial condition and results of operations, primarily during the year ended December 31, 2020, which we primarily attribute to the postponement of CGuard EPS procedures (non-emergency procedures), as hospitals have shifted resources to patients affected by COVID-19. To the best of our knowledge, there are European countries in which we operate reinstated non-emergency procedures. However, new COVID-19 variants, and potentially increasing infection rates make the current COVID-related environment highly volatile and uncertain and we anticipate that the continuation of the pandemic and related restrictions and safety measures will likely result in continued fluctuations in sales of our products, potentially enrollments in our studies as well as potential disruptions to our supply chain for the upcoming periods.

 

In February 2022, Russia launched a military invasion into Ukraine. We derived approximately 10.5% of total sales in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus in 2021 while in 2022 there no sales in Russia and Ukraine and minimal sales in Belarus. The escalation of geopolitical instability in Russia and Ukraine as well as currency fluctuations in the Russian Ruble could negatively impact our operations, sales, and future growth prospects in that region. As a result of the crisis in Ukraine both the United States and the EU have implemented sanctions against certain Russian individuals and entities and have made it more difficult for us to collect on outstanding accounts receivable from customers in this region. Our global operations expose us to risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or the market price of our securities, including the potential for increased tensions between the United States and Russia resulting from the current situation involving Russia and Ukraine, tariffs, economic sanctions and import-export restrictions imposed by either nation, and retaliatory actions by the other nation, as well as the potential negative impact on our business and sales in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. Current geopolitical instability in Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions by the U.S. government against certain companies and individuals may hinder our ability to conduct business with potential or existing customers and vendors in these countries. The U.S. government has imposed sanctions through several executive orders restricting U.S. companies from conducting business with specified Russian and Ukrainian individuals and companies. While we believe that the executive orders currently do not preclude us from conducting business with our current customers or vendors in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus, the sanctions imposed by the U.S. government may be expanded in the future to restrict us from engaging with them. If the Company is unable to conduct business with new or existing customers or vendors or pursue business opportunities in Russia, Ukraine or Belarus, our business, including revenue, profitability and cash flows, and operations could be adversely affected. We cannot provide assurance that current sanctions or potential future changes in sanctions will not have a material impact on our operations in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus or on our financial results.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operation and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our critical accounting policies are more fully described in both (i) “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and (ii) Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have not been any material changes to such critical accounting policies since December 31, 2021.

 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which our operations are conducted is the U.S. dollar (“$” or “dollar”).

 

Contingencies

 

We and our subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. We record accruals for these types of contingencies to the extent that we conclude the occurrence of such contingencies is probable and that the related liabilities are estimable. When accruing these costs, we recognize an accrual in the amount within a range of loss that is the best estimate within the range. When no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, we accrue for the minimum amount within the range. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021

 

Revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenue increased by $177,000, or 17.6%, to $1,183,000, from $1,006,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was predominantly driven by a 19.8% increase in sales volume of CGuard EPS from $969,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021, to $1,161,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This sales increase was mainly due to growth in existing and new markets and the removal of restrictions on non-emergency procedures, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, when procedures with CGuard EPS were still somewhat   postponed as hospitals shifted resources to patients affected by COVID-19. In addition, the sales increased due to sales in the United States related to stents used in our C-Guardians FDA study which occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2022, but not in the corresponding period in 2020. The increase in sales of CGuard EPS was partially offset by a lack of sales to Russia, Belarus and the Ukraine in the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to the regional conflict and related currency restrictions.

With respect to geographical regions, the increase in revenue was primarily attributable to a $59,000 increase in revenue from North America due to sales in the United States related to stents used in our FDA clinical trial, a $51,000 increase in revenue from Latin America, a $31,000 increase in revenue from Asia, and a $31,000 increase in revenue from other regions such Australia, Middle East and Europe mainly due to growth in existing and new markets and the removal of restrictions on non-emergency procedures, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, when procedures with CGuard EPS were still somewhat postponed as hospitals shifted resources to patients affected by COVID-19. The increase in sales of CGuard EPS was partially offset by a lack of sales  to Russia, Belarus and the Ukraine in the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to the regional conflict and related currency restrictions.

 

Gross Profit. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, gross profit (revenue less cost of revenues) increased by $16,000, or 15.2%, to $122,000, from $106,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase in gross profit resulted from a $30,000 decrease in write-offs which were driven mainly by component supply issues partially offset by a $14,000 in miscellaneous expenses. Gross margin (gross profits as a percentage of revenue) decreased to 10.3% during the three months ended March 31, 2022 from 10.5% during the three months ended March 31, 2021, driven by the factors mentioned above.

 

Research and Development Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, research and development expenses increased by $841,000, or 100.2%, to $1,680,000, from $839,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase resulted primarily from an increase of $910,000 in expenses related to the commencement of the C-Guardians FDA study, $75,000 in compensation expenses offset by a decrease of $131,000 in development expenses related to CGuard EPS accessory solutions and $13,000 in miscellaneous expenses.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, selling and marketing expenses increased by $38,000, or 5.4%, to $746,000, from $708,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in share-based compensation expenses of $49,000 due to the expense recognition of grants made during the fourth quarter of 2021.

 

General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, general and administrative expenses increased by $309,000, or 16.5%, to $2,182,000, from $1,873,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in compensation expenses of $250,000, mainly due to an increase of approximately $218,000 of share-based compensation-related expenses   due to the expense recognition of grants made during the fourth quarter of 2021   and an increase in salary expenses and related accruals of $32,000, and an increase in directors’ and officers’ liability insurance expenses of $59,000, due to increased premiums caused by recent trends in the overall insurance industry.

 

Financial Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, financial income decreased by $66,000, or 93.0%, to $5,000, from $71,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in financial income primarily resulted from a decrease of $87,000 in financial income related to changes in exchange rates offset in part by a $28,000 increase in interest income from short-term bank deposits.

 

Tax Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, there was no change in our tax expenses as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.

 

Net Loss. Our net loss increased by $1,238,000, or 38.2%, to $4,481,000, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, from $3,243,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in net loss resulted primarily from an increase of $1,188,000 in operating expenses   partially offset by an increase of $16,000 in gross profit.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2022, we have the ability to fund our planned operations for at least the next 12 months from issuance date of the financial statement. However, we expect to continue incurring losses and negative cash flows from operations until our products (primarily CGuard™ EPS) reach commercial profitability. Therefore, in order to fund our operations until such time that we can generate substantial revenues, we may need to raise additional funds.

 

Three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021

 

General. At March 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $7,798,000 as compared to $12,004,000 as of December 31, 2021. We have historically met our cash needs through a combination of issuing new shares, borrowing activities and product sales. Our cash requirements are generally for research and development, marketing and sales activities, finance and administrative costs, capital expenditures and general working capital.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in our operating activities increased by $511,000, or 14.0%, to $4,152,000, from $3,641,000 during the same period in 2021. The primary reason for the increase in cash used in our operating activities was an increase of $678,000 in payments for third party related expenses and for professional services primarily due to the C-Guardians FDA study, an increase of $365,000 in compensation costs paid during the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $2,314,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2021 to $2,679,000 during the same period in 2022, offset by an increase of $532,000 in payments received from customers, to $1,291,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $759,000 during the same period in 2021.

 

Cash used in our investing activities increased by $23,000 or $96%, to $47,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $24,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The primary reasons for the increase in cash used by our investing activities were an increase of $12,000 in funds related to employee rights upon retirement and $11,000 in payments made for purchase of property, plant and equipment to $37,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

There was no cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $35,068,000, the principal sources of which were our February 2021 public offering of common stock and warrants, exercise of Series F and Series G warrants, proceeds from our former ATM facility as well as proceeds from the issuance of shares to a Chinese distributor.

 

As of March 31, 2022, our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by a multiple of 8.8. Current assets decreased by $4,462,000 during the period and current liabilities decreased by $656,000 during the period. As a result, our working capital decreased by $3,806,000 to $28,941,000 as of March 31, 2022.

We have no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that have, or may have, a material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Factors That May Affect Future Operations

 

We believe that our future operating results will continue to be subject to quarterly variations based upon a wide variety of factors, including the cyclical nature of the ordering patterns of our distributors, timing of regulatory approvals, the implementation of various phases of our clinical trials and manufacturing efficiencies due to the learning curve of utilizing new materials and equipment, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing conflict in the Ukraine. Our operating results could also be impacted by a weakening of the Euro and strengthening of the NIS, both against the U.S. dollar. Lastly, other economic conditions we cannot foresee may affect customer demand, such as individual country reimbursement policies pertaining to our products.  

 

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments.  

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Management’s Conclusions Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of March 31, 2022, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and participation of management including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2022.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. There are currently no pending material legal proceedings, and we are currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims against us or our property that we believe will have any significant effect on our business, financial position or operating results.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Except for the Risk Factors included in our previous filings made with the SEC, there have been no material changes to our risk factors from those disclosed in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 7, 2022.
