NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All amounts in these accompanying notes are reflected in thousands, except shares and per-share amounts.)
Note 1 — The Company and Description of the Business
PAVmed Inc. (“PAVmed” or the “Company”) together with its majority owned subsidiaries, Lucid Diagnostics, Inc. (“Lucid Diagnostics” or “LUCID”) and Solys Diagnostics, Inc. (“Solys Diagnostics” or “SOLYS”) were organized to advance a broad pipeline of innovative medical technologies from concept to commercialization, employing a business model focused on capital efficiency and speed to market. The Company’s activities have focused on advancing the lead products towards regulatory approval and commercialization, protecting its intellectual property, and building its corporate infrastructure and management team. The Company operates in one segment as a medical device company.
The ability of the Company to generate revenue depends upon the Company’s ability to successfully advance the commercialization of EsoGuard and CarpX while also completing the development and the necessary regulatory approvals of its other products and services. In this regard:
● | EsoCheck has received 510(k) marketing clearance from the FDA as an esophageal cell collection device in June 2019; | |
● | EsoGuard completed the certification required by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (“CLIA”) and accreditation of the College of American Pathologists (“CAP”) making it commercially available as a Laboratory Developed Test (“LDT”) at LUCID’s contract diagnostic laboratory service provider in California in December 2019; and, | |
● | CarpX, developed as a patented, single-use, disposable, minimally invasive device designed as a precision cutting tool to treat carpal tunnel syndrome while reducing recovery times, received 510(k) marketing clearance from the FDA in April 2020. |
Although the Company’s current operational activities are principally focused on the commercialization of EsoGuard and CarpX its development activities are focused on pursuing FDA approval and clearance of other lead products in our product portfolio pipeline, including EsoGuard IVD, PortIO, DisappEAR, NextFlo, and EsoCure.
The Company has financed its operations principally through the public and private issuances of its common stock, preferred stock, warrants, and debt.
Note 2 — Financial Condition, Going Concern and Management Plans
The Company is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties typically faced by 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. The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future. The Company’s existing liquidity is not sufficient to fund its operations, anticipated capital expenditures and working capital funding until the Company reaches significant revenues. As such, the Company intends to rely on capital markets to obtain additional equity or debt financing, especially if the Company experiences downturns in its business that are more severe or longer than anticipated, or if the Company experiences significant increases in expense levels resulting from being a publicly-traded company or from expansion of operations. If the Company attempts to obtain additional equity or debt financing, the Company cannot assume that such financing will be available to the Company on favorable terms, or at all.
As a result of recurring operating losses and net operating cash flow deficits there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of this filing. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Significant Accounting Policies
Other than as described below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on April 14, 2020.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements 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 Lucid Diagnostics Inc. and Solys Diagnostics Inc., with the corresponding noncontrolling interest included as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity, including the recognition in the consolidated statement of the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest based on the respective minority ownership interest of each respective entity.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, 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”) regarding interim financial reporting. As permitted under SEC rules, certain footnotes or other financial information normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, and accordingly the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements at such date but does not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. These 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 normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial information.
The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or for any other interim period or for any other future periods. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2020.
All amounts in these accompanying notes to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands, if not otherwise noted as being presented in millions, except for shares and per share amounts.
Use of Estimates
In preparing 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 liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities in share-based payment arrangements and estimating the fair value of financial instruments recorded as liabilities. In addition, 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.

Recent Accounting Standards
Adoption of new accounting Standard
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, (“ASU 2018-07”), which aligns the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees for goods and services with the requirements for accounting for share-based payments to employees under ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. ASU 2018-07 provides that nonemployee share-based payments are measured at the grant date at the fair value of the equity instruments to be provided to the nonemployee when the goods or services have been delivered. Prior to ASU 2018-07 nonemployee share-based payments were measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever could be more reliably measured. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 had no effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurement. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 had no effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606”, which requires transactions in collaborative arrangements to be accounted for under ASC 606 if the counterparty is a customer for a good or service (or bundle of goods and services) that is a distinct unit of account. Additionally, ASU No. 2018-18 precludes entities from presenting consideration from transactions with a collaborator that is not a customer together with revenue recognized from contracts with customers. The adoption of ASU 2018-18 on January 1, 2020 had no effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued its Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40), (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU2020-06 amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized with respect to stock options granted under the Lucid Diagnostics Inc. 2018 Equity Plan to non-employees under the previous provisions of FASB ASC 505-50 in the prior year nine months ended September 30, 2019, was based on a weighted average estimated fair value of such stock options of $0.36 per share, calculated using Black-Scholes valuation model weighted-average assumptions of a 6.0 year contractual term, a 62% expected stock price volatility, a 2.0% risk free interest rate, and a 0% expected dividend rate.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted under both the PAVmed Inc. 2014 Equity Plan and the Lucid Diagnostics Inc. 2018 Equity Plan, which requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions, with the weighted-average valuation assumptions for stock-based awards, principally as follows:
● | The expected term of stock options represents the period of time stock options are expected to be outstanding, which is the expected term derived using the simplified method and, through December 31, 2019 for non-employees (under the previous provisions FASB ASC 505-50), was the remaining contractual term; |
● | With respect to stock options granted under the PAVmed Inc. 2014 Equity Plan, the expected stock price volatility is based on the historical stock price volatility of PAVmed Inc. common stock (“PAVM”) and the volatilities of similar entities within the medical device industry over the period commensurate with the expected term, and through December 31, 2019 for non-employees (under the previous provisions FASB ASC 505-50), was the remaining contractual term of the respective stock option; and, with respect to stock options granted under the Lucid Diagnostics Inc. 2018 Equity Plan, the expected stock price volatility is based on the historical stock price volatilities of similar entities within the medical device industry over the period commensurate with the expected term, and through December 31, 2019 for non-employees (under the previous provisions FASB ASC 505-50), was the remaining contractual term of the respective stock option; |
● | The risk-free interest rate is based on the interest rate payable on U.S. Treasury securities in effect at the time of grant for a period commensurate with the expected term of the stock option; and, |
● | The expected dividend yield is based on annual dividends of $0.00 as there has not been a dividend paid to-date, and there is no plan to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. |
The price per share of PAVmed Inc. common stock used in the computation of estimated fair value of stock options granted under the PAVmed Inc. 2014 Equity Plan is its quoted closing price per share. The price per share of Lucid Diagnostics Inc. common stock used in the computation of estimated fair value of stock options granted under the Lucid Diagnostics Inc. 2018 Equity Plan was estimated using a discounted cash flow method applied to a multi-year forecast of its future cash flows.

Note 9 — Cares Act Paycheck Protection Program Loan
On April 8, 2020 the Company entered into a loan agreement with JP Morgan Chase, N.A., and received approximately $300 of proceeds, pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) - the “PPP Loan”. The PPP Loan matures on April 8, 2022 and bears interest at a rate of approximately 1.0% per annum. Monthly amortized principle and interest payments are deferred for six months after the PPP Loan date-of-disbursement after which time each month following the deferral period, the Company will make equal monthly payments on principal and interest balances to fully amortize the loan balances by the maturity date. As such, $200 is presented as a current liability and $100 is presented as a non-current liability in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020. The PPP Loan funds were received on April 8, 2020. The PPP Loan contains events of default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type. The Paycheck Protection Program provides that (1) the use of PPP Loan amount shall be limited to certain qualifying expenses, (2) 100 per cent of the principal amount of the loan is guaranteed by the Small Business Administration and (3) an amount up to the full principal amount may qualify for loan forgiveness in accordance with the terms of CARES Act. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, covered mortgage interest and covered utilities during either, at our discretion, the eight-week period or twenty-four week period beginning on the date of disbursement of proceeds from the PPP loan. In the event the PPP loan, or any portion thereof, is forgiven pursuant to the PPP, the amount forgiven is applied to outstanding principal. The Company is not yet able to determine the amount potentially to be forgiven, if any. As of September 30, 2020 and the date of this filing, the Company was in full compliance with the provisions of the PPP Loan.

Note 12 — Loss Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per common share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted weighted average common shares include common stock potentially issuable under the Company’s convertible notes, preferred stock, warrants and vested and unvested stock options.
The following table sets forth the computation of earnings (loss) per share attributable to PAVmed Inc. and loss per share attributable to PAVmed Inc. common stockholders for the respective periods indicated:

Overview
PAVmed is a highly-differentiated multi-product technology medical device company organized to advance a broad pipeline of innovative medical technologies from concept to commercialization, employing a business model focused on capital efficiency and speed to market. Since inception on June 26, 2014, our activities have focused on advancing our lead products towards regulatory approval and commercialization, protecting our intellectual property, and building our corporate infrastructure and management team. We operate in one segment as a medical device company with four operating divisions, which include GI Health, Minimally Invasive Interventions, Infusion Therapy, and Emerging Innovations. 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. We have ongoing operations conducted in two active majority owned subsidiaries: Lucid Diagnostics Inc. (“Lucid Diagnostics” or “LUCID”), which was incorporated in May 2018, and Solys Diagnostics Inc. (“Solys Diagnostics” or “SOLYS”), which was incorporated in October 2019.
PAVmed and its subsidiaries have proprietary rights to the trademarks used herein, including, among others, PAVmed™, Lucid Diagnostics™, Caldus™, CarpX™, DisappEAR™, EsoCheck™, EsoGuard™, EsoCheck Cell Collection Device™, EsoCure Esophageal Ablation Device™, NextCath™, NextFlo™, PortIO™, and “Innovating at the Speed of Life”™. Solely as a matter of convenience, trademarks and trade names referred to herein may or may not be accompanied with the requisite marks of “™” or “®” however, the absence of such marks is not intended to indicate, in any way, PAVmed or its subsidiaries will not assert, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, their respective rights to such trademarks and trade names.
Our multiple products are in various phases of development, regulatory clearances, approvals, and commercialization.
● | EsoCheck received 510(k) marketing clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in June 2019 as an esophageal cell collection device. EsoGuard has been established as a Laboratory Developed Test (“LDT”) and was launched commercially in December 2019 after Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (“CLIA”) and College of American Pathologists (“CAP”) accreditation of the test at LUCID’s commercial diagnostic laboratory partner ResearchDx Inc. (“ResearchDx”), headquartered in Irvine, CA. | |
● | Our CarpX device is a patented, single-use, disposable, minimally invasive device designed as a precision cutting tool to treat carpal tunnel syndrome while reducing recovery times that was cleared by the FDA under section 510(k) in April 2020 and was launched commercially in August 2020. | |
● | Our other products in development have not yet received clearance or approval to be marketed or sold in the U.S. or elsewhere. We have been granted patents by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) for CarpX, PortIO, and Caldus and have acquired licenses to certain patents and intellectual property for DisappEAR from Tufts University and a group of academic centers, for EsoGuard and EsoCheck from Case Western Reserve University (“CWRU”) and more recently for patents covering infrared technology to non-invasively detect glucose in tissue within the in-patient field of use from Liquid Sensing, Inc. |
A brief description of our key divisions and products is as follows:
GI Health
EsoGuard, EsoCheck, and EsoCure
This product family consists of a patented platform technology (EsoGuard and EsoCheck) licensed from CWRU to Lucid Diagnostics that was developed to provide an accurate, non-invasive, patient-friendly screening test for the early detection of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus (“EAC”) and of Barrett’s Esophagus (“BE”), including dysplasia and related pre-cursors to EAC in patients with chronic gastroesophageal reflux (“GERD”). This product family also consists of a technology (EsoCure) developed by PAVmed to treat BE. EsoGuard is a molecular diagnostic esophageal DNA test shown in a published human study to be highly accurate at detecting BE, as well as EAC. EsoCheck is a non-invasive cell collection device designed to sample cells from a targeted region of the esophagus in a five-minute office-based procedure, without the need for endoscopy. Both EsoGuard and EsoCheck are commercially available, as separately marketed products, for physicians to prescribe for U.S. patients. EsoCure is in development as an Esophageal Ablation Device using Caldus Technology to allow a clinician to treat dysplastic BE before it can progress to EAC, a highly lethal esophageal cancer, and to do so without the need for complex and expensive capital equipment. We have successfully completed a pre-clinical feasibility animal study of EsoCure demonstrating excellent, controlled circumferential ablation of the esophageal mucosal lining.

GI Health - continued
EsoGuard, EsoCheck, and EsoCure - continued
We are currently marketing EsoGuard LDT through a network of independent representatives working with our in-house sales management. On June 9, 2020, the U.S. Center for Medicare and Medicare Services (“CMS”) published its preliminary “gap-fill” payment recommendations for the current review cycle. Medicare Administrative Contractor (“MAC”) Palmetto GBA recommended for EsoGuard a payment of $1,938.01 in 38 states and $2,690.00 in 12 states (including Florida, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) and two U.S. territories, with such reimbursement expected to be applicable from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023, upon finalization by CMS, pending its review of reconsideration requests. In addition, we have entered into a manufacturing agreement with medical device contract manufacturer Coastline International Inc. to serve as a high-volume, lower-cost manufacturer of the EsoCheck device.
Our longer-term strategy is to secure a specific indication, based on published guidelines, for BE screening in certain at-risk populations using EsoGuard on samples collected with EsoCheck. This use of EsoGuard together with EsoCheck as a screening system must be cleared or approved by the FDA as an IVD device (“EsoGuard IVD”). In September 2019, we entered into an agreement with a clinical research organization (“CRO”) to assist us with two ongoing EsoGuard IVD clinical trials which are actively enrolling patients and consist of a screening study (ESOGUARD-BE-1) and a case control study (ESOGUARD-BE-2).
In February 2020, we received Breakthrough Device designation for the EsoGuard IVD. The FDA Breakthrough Device Program was created to offer patients more timely access to breakthrough technologies which provide for more effective treatment or diagnosis of life-threatening or irreversibly debilitating human disease or conditions by expediting their development, assessment and review through enhanced communications and more efficient and flexible clinical study design, including more favorable pre/post market data collection balance. Breakthrough Devices receive priority FDA review, and a bipartisan bill before Congress (H.R. 5333) seeks to require Medicare to temporarily cover all Breakthrough Devices for three years while determining permanent coverage.
Minimally Invasive Interventions
CarpX
We received FDA marketing clearance under section 510(k) in April 2020 for our CarpX minimally invasive surgical device for use in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome and launched the device commercially in August 2020. We believe CarpX will allow the physician to relieve the compression on the median nerve without an open incision or the need for endoscopic or other imaging equipment. To use CarpX, the operator first advances a guidewire through the carpal tunnel under the ligament, and then advanced over the wire and positioned in the carpal tunnel under ultrasonic and/or fluoroscopic guidance. When the CarpX balloon is inflated it creates tension in the ligament positioning the cutting electrodes underneath it and creates space within the tunnel, providing anatomic separation between the target ligament and critical structures such as the median nerve. Radiofrequency energy is briefly delivered to the electrodes, rapidly cutting the ligament, and relieving the pressure on the nerve. We believe CarpX will be significantly less invasive than existing treatments.
We are commercializing our products through a network of independent U.S. sales representatives and/or inventory-stocking medical distributors together with our in-house sales management and marketing teams, including a national sales manager for CarpX with over 20 years of commercial orthopedic experience. Our focus on CarpX, and other high margin products and services, is particularly suitable to this mode of distribution. A high gross margin allows us to properly incentivize our distributors, which in turn allows us to attract the top distributors with the most robust networks in our targeted specialties. Independent distributors play an even larger role in many parts of Europe, most of Asia and emerging markets worldwide.
We may eventually choose to build (or obtain through a strategic acquisition) our own sales and marketing team to commercialize CarpX, along with some or all of our products, if it is in our long-term interests. We may also choose to enter into distribution agreements with larger strategic partners whereby we take full responsibility for the manufacturing of CarpX but outsource some or all of its distribution to a partner, particularly outside the United States, with its own robust distribution channels.

Infusion Therapy
PortIO
This product is a novel, patented, implantable, intraosseous vascular medical device which does not require accessing the central venous system and does not have an indwelling intravascular component. It is designed to be highly resistant to occlusion and may not require regular flushing. It features simplified, near-percutaneous insertion and removal, without the need for surgical dissection or radiographic confirmation. It provides a near limitless number of potential access sites and can be used in patients with chronic total occlusion of their central veins. We believe the absence of an intravascular component will likely result in a very low infection rate.
Based on encouraging animal data, we are preparing to initiate a long-term (60-day implant duration) first-in-human clinical study in dialysis patients or those with poor venous access in Colombia, South America and intend to fulfill the likely FDA request for human clinical data with a clinical safety study in the United States following FDA clearance of our Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) submission to begin clinical testing. In addition, we plan to file for FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for PortIO.
NextFlo
This product is a patented, disposable, and highly accurate infusion platform technology including intravenous (“IV”) infusion sets and disposable infusion pumps (DIP) designed to eliminate the need for complex and expensive electronic infusion pumps for most of the estimated one million infusions of fluids, medications and other substances delivered each day in hospitals and outpatient settings in the United States. NextFlo is designed to deliver highly accurate gravity-driven infusions independent of the height of the IV bag. It maintains constant flow by incorporating a proprietary, passive, pressure-dependent variable flow-resistor consisting entirely of inexpensive, easy-to-manufacture disposable mechanical parts. NextFlo testing has demonstrated constant flow rates across a wide range of IV bag heights, with accuracy rates comparable to electronic infusion pumps.
We are seeking a long-term strategic partnership or acquiror. We have been running a formal M&A process for NextFlo targeting strategic and financial partners. The process is active with ongoing discussion with multiple parties and we are simultaneously progressing toward an initial FDA 510(k) submission.
Emerging Innovations
Emerging innovations refers to a diversified and expanding portfolio of innovative products designed to address unmet clinical needs across a broad range of clinical conditions. We are evaluating a number of these product opportunities and intellectual property covering a wide spectrum of clinical conditions, which have either been developed internally or have been presented to us by clinician innovators and academic medical institutions for consideration of a partnership to develop and commercialize these products. This collection of products includes, without limitation, initiatives in non-invasive laser-based glucose monitoring, mechanical circulatory support, single-use ventilators and pediatric ear tubes. In June 2020, we announced the execution of a letter of intent to consummate a series of agreements to develop and utilize Canon Virginia’s commercial grade and scalable aqueous silk fibroin molding process to manufacture PAVmed’s DisappEAR molded pediatric ear tubes for commercialization. Furthermore, we are exploring other opportunities to grow our business and enhance shareholder value through the acquisition of pre-commercial or commercial stage products and/or companies with potential strategic corporate and commercial synergies.

Impact of SARS-CoV-2 - COVID-19 Pandemic
We continue to monitor the ongoing impact on the national economy and our business of the pandemic resulting from “SARS-CoV-2” (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), commonly referred to by its resulting illness as “COVID-19” (coronavirus disease-2019). We expect the significance of the pandemic, including the extent of its effect on our consolidated financial condition and consolidated operational results and cash flows, to be dictated by the success of efforts to mitigate the spread of and /or to contain the virus and the impact of such efforts. The SARS-CoV-2 virus (and resulting COVID-19 illness) and the corresponding mitigation and containment efforts may have an adverse impact on our operations, supply chains and distribution systems and /or those of our contractors and laboratory partner and increase our and their operating expenses. In this regard, the ability of our employees or our contractors, laboratory partner, and other service providers, to perform their work may be adversely affected. In addition, the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has disrupted the United States’ healthcare and healthcare regulatory systems which could divert healthcare resources away from, or materially delay FDA approval with respect to our products. Furthermore, our clinical trials have been and may be further affected by the pandemic, as site initiation and patient enrollment may be delayed, for example, due to prioritization of hospital resources toward the virus /illness response, as well as travel restrictions imposed by governments, and the inability to access clinical test sites for initiation and monitoring. The pandemic may have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the United States of America, resulting in an economic downturn that could adversely affect demand for our products and services and /or our product candidates. While we are not able at this time to estimate the impact of the pandemic on our consolidated financial condition, consolidated results of operations, and /or consolidated cash flows, the adverse impact could be material.

Results of Operations
Overview
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel, including travel expenses for our employees in executive functions, facility-related costs, professional fees, accounting and legal services, consultants and expenses associated with obtaining and maintaining patents within our intellectual property portfolio.
We anticipate our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future, as we anticipate an increase in payroll and related expenses related to the roll-out of our commercial sales and marketing operations. We also anticipate continued expenses related to being a public company, including audit, legal, regulatory, and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance as a public company, director and officer insurance premiums and investor relations costs.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses are recognized in the period they are incurred and consist principally of internal and external expenses incurred for the research and development of our products, including:
● | consulting costs charged to us by various external contract research organizations we contract with to conduct preclinical studies and engineering studies; | |
● | salary and benefit costs associated with our chief medical officer and engineering personnel; | |
● | costs associated with regulatory filings; | |
● | patent license fees; | |
● | cost of laboratory supplies and acquiring, developing, and manufacturing preclinical prototypes; | |
● | product design engineering studies; and | |
● | rental expense for facilities maintained solely for research and development purposes. |
We plan to incur research and development expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue the development of our products. Our research and development activities are focused principally on obtaining FDA approvals and developing product improvements or extending the utility of the lead products in our pipeline, including CarpX, EsoCheck and EsoGuard, along with advancing our DisappEAR, PortIO, NextFlo, and non-invasive glucose monitoring products through their respective development phase.
Other Income and Expense, net
Other income and expense, net, consists principally of changes in fair value of our convertible notes, losses on extinguishment of debt upon repayment of such convertible notes; and interest expense recognized in connection with one of our convertible notes.

Three months ended September 30, 2020 versus September 30, 2019
General and administrative expenses
In the three months ended September 30, 2020, general and administrative costs were approximately $2.9 million, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The net increase of $1.2 million was principally related to:
● | approximately $0.7 million increase in compensation related costs principally related to sales staffing levels and other costs related to our commercial launch of EsoGuard; and | |
● | approximately $0.5 million in consulting services related to patents, regulatory compliance, legal processes for contract review, and public company expenses. |
Research and development expenses
In the three months ended September 30, 2020, research and development costs were approximately $2.6 million, compared to $1.5 million for the corresponding period in the prior year, with the $1.1 million increase principally resulting from increased clinical trial costs with respect to CarpX, NextFlo, Port IO, EsoGuard and a glucose monitoring project at SOLYS.
Other Income and Expense
Change in fair value of convertible debt
In the three months ended September 30, 2020, the non-cash expense recognized for the change in the fair value of our convertible notes was approximately $0.4 million of other income, inclusive of the recognition of current period other expense of approximately $0.8 million of lender fees incurred with respect to the convertible notes as discussed below, as compared to $0.4 million of other income for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The changes principally related to:
● | an increase in the face principal amount of our convertible notes of approximately $7.0 million, inclusive of $0.8 million in lender fees; | |
● | among other fair value input assumptions, a substantive increase in the Company’s common stock price between the periods resulting in a higher estimated fair value of the convertible notes; and | |
● | approximately $0.8 million of lender fees recognized as other expense with respect to our convertible note issued August 6, 2020. There were no such fees incurred in the corresponding prior year period. |
See Note 7 and Note 8 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a further discussion of the change in fair value of our convertible notes, and “—Going Concern, Liquidity, and Capital Resources”, below.
Loss from Extinguishment of Debt
In the three months ended September 30, 2020, a debt extinguishment loss of approximately $0.7 million was recognized in connection with the convertible notes, with such loss resulting from the difference between: the face value principal repayments and the corresponding payments of the interest thereon; as compared to the fair value of the shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of such convertible notes, with such fair value measured as the respective issue date closing quoted price per share of our common stock.
In the prior year period of three months ended September 30, 2019, a debt extinguishment loss of approximately $0.4 million, was recognized in connection with the Senior Secured Convertible Note issued December 27, 2018, with such loss resulting from the difference between: the face value principal repayments and the corresponding payments of the interest thereon; as compared to the fair value of the shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of such convertible note, with such fair value measured as the respective issue date closing quoted price per share of our common stock. See Note 8 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and “—Going Concern, Liquidity, and Capital Resources” below, for a further discussion of our convertible notes.

Nine months ended September 30, 2020 versus September 30, 2019 - continued
Interest Expense
In the nine months ended September 30, 2020, interest expense of approximately $0.1 million is with respect to the November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes - Series B, when such convertible note was unfunded through March 29, 2020. There was no such interest expense incurred during the corresponding period in the prior year. See Note 8 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a further discussion of the November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes - Series B interest expense; and “—Going Concern, Liquidity, and Capital Resources” below.
Going Concern, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
We have experienced recurring losses from operations since inception. We have not yet established an ongoing source of revenues and must fund our operating expenses through debt and equity financings to allow us to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on the ability to obtain adequate capital to fund operating losses until we generate adequate cash flows from operations to fund our operating costs and obligations. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.
We depend upon our ability, and will continue to attempt, to secure equity and/or debt financing. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Our management determined that there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, and management’s concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern within the year following this report persist.
As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had cash of $8.3 million and $6.2 million, respectively.
In November 2019, we issued Senior Secured Convertible Notes with a total face value principal amount of $14.0 million (the “November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes”) to certain accredited investors in a private placement, generating cash proceeds of approximately $12.6 million. The November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes were sold in two series, Series A (for which the cash proceeds were delivered by the investors at the closing in November 2019) and Series B (for which the cash proceeds were delivered in March 2020). The November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes mature on September 30, 2021, subject to extension, and accrue interest at 7.875% per annum, upon the respective Series A and Series B being funded by the investor. During the period from November 2019 to its funding in March 2020, the November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes - Series B incurred interest expense at 3.0% per annum based on its $7.0 million face value principal. At the election of the holder, the November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes may be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a contractual conversion price of $1.60 per share. Installment repayments of principal totaling approximately $0.4 million, along with any accrued and unpaid interest and any late charges, were initially due on March 31, 2020, and then, thereafter, on the 15th day of each month and the last trading day of each month, and on the maturity date. We may settle the installment repayment of principal and interest expense thereon, upon the conversion of the holder, through the issue of shares of our common stock, subject to customary equity conditions (including minimum price and volume thresholds), at 100% of the installment principal repayment and corresponding non-installment interest expense, or otherwise (or at our election, in whole or in part) in cash at 115% of the installment principal repayment and corresponding non-installment interest expense. The November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets.
In April 2020, in a private placement with an accredited investor, we issued a Senior Convertible Note with a face value principal of $4.1 million, resulting in cash proceeds of approximately $3.7 million, after a lender fee of approximately $0.4 million (the “April 2020 Senior Convertible Note”). The April 2020 Senior Convertible Note has a contractual maturity date of April 30, 2022, and an annual interest rate of 7.875%, payable in cash on a monthly basis. At the election of the holder, the April 2020 Senior Convertible Note may be converted into shares of our common stock at a contractual conversion price of $5.00 per share.

Going Concern, Liquidity, and Capital Resources - continued
In August 2020, in a private placement with an accredited investor, we issued a Senior Secured Convertible Note with a face value principal of $7.75 million, resulting in cash proceeds of approximately $7.0 million, after a lender fee of approximately $0.75 million (the “August 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Note”). The August 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Note has a contractual maturity date of August 5, 2022, and an annual interest rate of 7.875%, payable in cash on a monthly basis. At the election of the holder, the April 2020 Senior Convertible Note may be converted into shares of our common stock at a contractual conversion price of $5.00 per share. The August 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Note is secured by substantially all of our assets.
Under the November 2019 Senior Secured Convertible Notes and the April 2020 Senior Convertible Note, we are subject to certain customary affirmative and negative covenants regarding the incurrence of indebtedness, the existence of liens, the repayment of indebtedness, the payment of cash in respect of dividends, distributions or redemptions, and the transfer of assets, among other matters as well as a financial covenant requiring us to maintain available cash in the amount of approximately $1.8 million at the end of each fiscal quarter. As of September 30, 2020, we were in compliance with this financial covenant. The August 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Note contains substantively similar customary affirmative and negative covenants as those described above, as well as increasing to $2.0 million the minimum available cash at the end of each quarter.
Subsequent to September 30, 2020, effective November 6, 2020, we entered into a waiver agreement with the holder of the April 2020 Senior Convertible Note and the August 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Note. Prior to the waiver agreement, the noteholder had the right, at any time from and after October 30, 2020, in its sole discretion, to require us to redeem all, or any portion, of the respective convertible notes. Under the waiver agreement, so long as no event of default has occurred and is continuing under the convertible notes (unless waived in writing by the holder of the convertible notes), the noteholder waived this redemption right until November 30, 2020. Furthermore, the waiver will be automatically extended for additional one-month periods, unless the noteholder delivers notice to us of an election to terminate the waiver prior to the then-current end date for the waiver.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and equity, along with the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the corresponding periods. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Please see Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q, for a summary of significant accounting policies. In addition, reference is made to Part I, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” in the Form 10-K, for a summary of our critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates. There have been no other material changes to our critical accounting policies or significant judgments and estimates since the Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2020. Based on such evaluation, due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of such date to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Material Weakness
Our management’s conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective was due to the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the preparation of the Form 10-K. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting:
● | We did not maintain a properly designed control environment that identified key control risk areas with an appropriate level of precision in order to conclude on the operating effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. |
Management intends to implement changes to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. These changes are intended to address the identified material weakness and enhance our overall control environment and are expected to include the activities described below.
● | We hired a consulting firm to assist us in revising our internal control documentation so that it identifies key control risk areas with sufficient precision for us to properly test the operating effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. |
While we believe the above activities will ultimately remediate the material weakness, we intend to continue to refine those controls and monitor their effectiveness for a sufficient period of time prior to reaching any determination as to whether the material weakness has been remediated.
Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management believes that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, and consolidated cash flows as of and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, we expect to make changes to our internal control over financial reporting in the future to remediate the material weakness identified above.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, effective November 6, 2020, the Company entered into a waiver agreement with the holder of the April 2020 Senior Convertible Note and the August 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Note. Prior to the waiver agreement, the noteholder had the right, at any time from and after October 30, 2020, in its sole discretion, to require the Company to redeem all, or any portion, of the respective convertible notes. Under the waiver agreement, so long as no event of default has occurred and is continuing under the convertible notes (unless waived in writing by the holder of the convertible notes), the noteholder waived this redemption right until November 30, 2020. Furthermore, the waiver will be automatically extended for additional one-month periods, unless the noteholder delivers notice to us of an election to terminate the waiver prior to the then-current end date for the waiver.
