Senseonics Holdings, Inc.

 

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.Organization

 

Senseonics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a medical technology company focused on the design, development and commercialization of glucose monitoring systems to improve the lives of people with diabetes by enhancing their ability to manage their disease with relative ease and accuracy.

 

ASN Technologies, Inc. (“ASN”) was incorporated in Nevada on June 26, 2014. On December 4, 2015, ASN reincorporated in Delaware and changed its name to Senseonics Holdings, Inc. On December 7, 2015, Senseonics Holdings, Inc. acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Senseonics, Incorporated (the "Acquisition"). Senseonics, Incorporated was originally incorporated on October 30, 1996 and commenced operations on January 15, 1997. Senseonics Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiary Senseonics, Incorporated are hereinafter referred to as the “Company” unless the context requires otherwise.

2.Liquidity

 

The Company’s operations are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, among others, current and potential competitors with greater resources, lack of operating history and uncertainty of future profitability. Since inception, the Company has incurred substantial operating losses, principally from expenses associated with the Company’s research and development programs. The Company has not generated significant revenues from the sale of products and its ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability largely depends on the Company’s ability, alone or with others, to complete the development of its products or product candidates, and to obtain necessary regulatory approvals for the manufacture, marketing and sales of those products. These activities, including planned significant research and development efforts, will require significant uses of working capital through the remainder of 2017 and beyond.

 

On March 23, 2016, the Company effected the initial closing of its public offering of 15,800,000 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $2.85 per share (the “Offering”). Additionally, the Company closed on the partial exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares on April 5, 2016. The Company received aggregate net proceeds from the Offering of $44.8 million (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions of $2.7 million and additional offering related costs of $1.4 million). On June 30, 2016, the Company entered into Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford Finance LLC (“Oxford”) and Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) to potentially borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million. Management has concluded that, based on the Company’s current operating plans, its existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities available for sale will be sufficient to meet the Company’s anticipated operating needs into the third quarter of 2017. Accordingly, since management has concluded that the Company does not have sufficient funds to support operations through May 2018, the Company believes that doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists.

 

Historically, the Company has financed its operating activities through the sale of equity and equity linked securities and the issuance of debt. Although the Company began generating revenue from product sales of Eversense, its continuous glucose monitoring system, in June 2016, the Company does not expect product revenues to be sufficient to satisfy its operating needs for several years, if ever. Accordingly, the Company plans to continue financing its operations with external capital for the foreseeable future. However, the Company may not be able to raise additional funds on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Company is unable to secure sufficient capital to fund its research and development and other operating activities, the Company may be required to delay or suspend operations, enter into collaboration agreements with partners that could require the Company to share commercial rights to its products to a greater extent or at earlier stages in the product development process than is currently intended, merge or consolidate with other entities, or liquidate.

3.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016, has been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The interim condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company believes that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes previously included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, estimates are used for, but not limited to, stock-based compensation, recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and valuation allowances, depreciable lives of property and equipment, and estimated accruals for preclinical study costs, which are accrued based on estimates of work performed under contracts. Actual results could differ from those estimates; however management does not believe that such differences would be material.

 

Segment Information

 

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one segment, glucose monitoring systems.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive income (loss) comprises net income (loss) and other changes in equity that are excluded from net income (loss). For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s net loss equaled its comprehensive loss and, accordingly, no additional disclosure is presented.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consist principally of finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost to purchase or the net realizable value of such inventory. Cost is determined using the standard cost method that approximates first in, first out. Market is determined by the lower of replacement cost or net realizable value. The Company periodically reviews inventory to determine if a write down is necessary for inventory that has become obsolete, inventory that has a cost basis less than net realizable value, and inventory in excess of future demand taking into consideration the product shelf life.

 

Marketable Securities

 

Marketable securities consist of debt securities in government-sponsored entities, corporate debt securities, U.S. Treasury securities and commercial paper. The Company’s investments are classified as available for sale. Such securities are carried at estimated fair value, with any unrealized holding gains or losses reported, net of any tax effects

6


 

reported, as accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary, if any, are included in consolidated results of operations. A decline in the market value of any available for sale security below cost that is deemed to be other-than-temporary results in a reduction in fair value, which is charged to earnings in that period, and a new cost basis for the security is established. Dividend and interest income is recognized when earned. The cost of securities sold is calculated using the specific identification method. The Company classifies all available-for-sale marketable securities with maturities greater than one year from the balance sheet date as non-current assets.

   

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is generated from sales of sensor kits, transmitter kits, and related supplies under agreements for third-party distributors that resell the product to customers. The Company is paid for its sales directly by third-party distributors, regardless of whether or not the distributors resell the products to their customers.

 

The Company recognizes product sales revenue when all of the following criteria are met:

 

         persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

         delivery has occurred;

         the price is fixed or determinable; and

         collectability is reasonably assured.

 

The Company offers no rights of return and has no significant post-delivery obligations and therefore, the above criteria are generally met as products are shipped to, or received by, third-party distributors.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company grants credit to various customers in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from distributors. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts at the time potential collection risk is identified. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance after appropriate collection efforts have been exhausted and when it is deemed that a balance is uncollectible.

 

Warranty Reserve

 

The Company generally provides a warranty on Eversense to end user customers and may replace Eversense components that do not function in accordance with the product specifications. Estimated warranty costs associated with a product are recorded at the time of shipment. The Company estimates future warranty costs by analyzing historical warranty experience for the timing and amount of returned product, and the Company evaluates the reserve quarterly and makes adjustments when appropriate.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at historical cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, generally five years. Equipment under capital leases is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lesser of its estimated useful life or the lease term. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the remaining lease term or useful lives of the assets. Upon disposition of the assets, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are included as expense in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

 

Management reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the long-lived asset is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount, the impairment to be recognized is measured

7


 

by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. Management did not identify any indicators of impairment through March 31, 2017.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses include costs related to employee compensation, preclinical studies and clinical trials, supplies, outsource testing, consulting and depreciation and other facilities‑related expenses.

 

Stock‑Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant. The estimated fair value of stock options on the date of grant is amortized on a straight‑line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award for those awards with service conditions only. For awards that also contain performance conditions, expense is recognized beginning at the time the performance condition is considered probable of being met over the remaining vesting period.

 

The Company uses the Black‑Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock‑option awards. Valuation of stock awards requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to determine the fair value of the awards. These assumptions and judgments include estimating the fair value of the Company’s common stock, future volatility of the Company’s stock price, dividend yields, future employee turnover rates, and future employee stock option exercise behaviors. Changes in these assumptions can affect the fair value estimate.

 

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, the cumulative amount of compensation cost recognized for instruments classified as equity that ordinarily would result in a future tax deduction under existing tax law shall be considered to be a deductible difference in applying ASC 740, Income Taxes. The deductible temporary difference is based on the compensation cost recognized for financial reporting purposes; however, these provisions currently do not impact the Company, as all the deferred tax assets have a full valuation allowance.

 

Since the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards as of March 31, 2017, no excess tax benefits for the tax deductions related to stock-based awards were recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s term notes payable approximate fair value as they were issued in the current year. The fair values of the Company’s marketable investments are reported in Note 11—Fair Value Measurements.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted. The measurement of a deferred tax asset is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

Management uses a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, as well as guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties and financial statement reporting disclosures. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. In the ordinary course

8


 

of business, transactions occur for which the ultimate outcome may be uncertain. Management does not expect the outcome related to accrued uncertain tax provisions to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax exposures as a component of income tax expense. The Company did not have any amounts accrued relating to interest and penalties as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

 

The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions in the United States and remains subject to examination by taxing jurisdictions for the year 1998 and all subsequent periods due to the availability of net operating loss carryforwards. In addition, all of the net operating losses and research and development credit carryforwards that may be used in future years are still subject to adjustment.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

 

For periods of net loss, diluted net loss per share is calculated similarly to basic loss per share because the impact of all potential dilutive common shares is anti‑dilutive. The total number of anti‑dilutive shares, consisting of common stock options and stock purchase warrants exercisable for common stock, which have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, was 13,605,558 and 9,247,130  common stock options and 4,570,902 and 5,010,595 stock purchase warrants for three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

For periods of net income, and when the effects are not anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus the impact of all potential dilutive common shares, consisting primarily of common stock options and stock purchase warrants using the treasury stock method.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance for revenue recognition for contracts, superseding the previous revenue recognition requirements, along with most existing industry-specific guidance. The guidance requires an entity to review contracts in five steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price, and 5) recognize revenue. The new standard will result in enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued guidance approving a one-year deferral, making the standard effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted only for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations for reporting revenue gross rather than net, with the same deferred effective date. In April 2016, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations and the accounting for licenses of intellectual property, with the same deferred effective date. In May 2016, the FASB issued guidance rescinding SEC paragraphs related to revenue recognition, pursuant to two SEC Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 Emerging Issues Task Force meeting. In May 2016, the FASB also issued guidance to clarify the implementation guidance on assessing collectability, presentation of sales tax, noncash consideration, and contracts and contract modifications at transition, with the same effective date. The Company does not intend to adopt the guidance early. The Company is in the process of reviewing its revenue accounting policy and implementing changes to its business processes and controls in response to the new standard. During the second half of 2017, the Company will finalize its revenue related documentation. Based on its evaluation, the Company anticipates selecting its method of adopting the new standard in the second quarter of 2017, which the Company will begin applying in the first quarter of 2018. 

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to Internal‑Use Software specifically for the Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement. The amendments in this update provide guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the

9


 

arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. An entity can elect to adopt the amendments either 1) prospectively for all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or 2) retrospectively. The Company decided to adopt the standards prospectively and will be accounting for the new cloud arrangements in accordance with the new standards. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance for accounting for leases. The guidance requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities related to long-term leases on the balance sheet and expands disclosure requirements regarding leasing arrangements. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The guidance must be adopted on a modified retrospective basis and provides for certain practical expedients. The Company currently expects that the adoption of this guidance likely will change the way the Company accounts for its operating leases and likely will result in recording the future benefits of those leases and the related minimum lease payments on its balance sheet. The Company has not yet begun to evaluate the specific impacts of this guidance nor has it determined the manner in which it will adopt this guidance.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance simplifying the accounting for and financial statement disclosure of stock-based compensation awards. The Company early adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2016. From January 1, 2016 onward, in accordance with the new guidance, no excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies will be recognized in additional paid-in capital. The Company will account for forfeitures as they occur, rather than using an estimated forfeiture rate. The Company estimates that this change in accounting will not result in material adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2017. The Company will also present the impact of classifying excess tax benefits as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows on a prospective basis and prior periods will not be adjusted. The adoption of the remaining amendments is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance with respect to measuring credit losses on financial instruments, including trade receivables. The guidance eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold that was previously required prior to recognizing a credit loss on financial instruments. The credit loss estimate can now reflect an entity's current estimate of all future expected credit losses. Under the previous guidance, an entity only considered past events and current conditions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company currently expects that the adoption of this guidance likely will change the way the Company assesses the collectibility of its receivables and recoverability of other financial instruments. The Company has not yet begun to evaluate the specific impacts of this guidance nor has it determined the manner in which it will adopt this guidance.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows, including those related to debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance, and distributions received from equity method investees. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity adopts the guidance in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The guidance must be adopted on a retrospective basis and must be applied to all periods presented, but may be applied prospectively if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance to reduce diversity in practice that exists in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The revised guidance requires that amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included in with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity adopts the guidance in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The guidance must be adopted on a retrospective basis. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017, on a retrospective basis, and all periods will be presented under this guidance. The adoption of this new guidance had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has evaluated all other issued unadopted Accounting Standards Updates and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its consolidated statements of earnings, balance sheets, or cash flows.

6.Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company leases approximately 32,000 square feet of research and office space under a non‑cancelable operating lease expiring in 2023. The Company has an option to renew the lease for one additional five‑year term. Expense recognition is based upon a straight‑line basis and was $155,884 and $96,525 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

On March 31, 2016 the Company amended a corporate development agreement with a supplier to include a minimum purchase commitment per year. Total research and development expense related to the minimum payment was $57,875 and $112,890 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. There were approximately $2.3 million of future minimum payments under this commitment at March 31, 2017.

7.401(k) Plan

 

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan available to all full-time employees. Employee contributions are voluntary and are determined on an individual basis subject to the maximum allowable under federal income tax regulations. Participants are fully vested in their contributions. There have been no employer contributions to this plan. Administrative expenses for the plan, which are paid by the Company, were not material in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

8.Notes Payable

 

Term Notes Payable

 

On June 30, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford and SVB (the “Lenders”). Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, the Company may potentially borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million in the following four tranches: $15.0 million (“Tranche 1 Term Loan”); $5.0 million (“Tranche 2 Term Loan”); $5.0 million (“Tranche 3 Term Loan”); and $5.0 million (“Tranche 4 Term Loan”) (each, a “Term Loan,” and collectively, the “Term Loans”). The funding conditions for the Tranche 1 Term Loan were satisfied as of June 30, 2016. Therefore, the Company issued secured notes to the Lenders for aggregate gross proceeds of $15.0 million (the “Notes”) on June 30, 2016. The Company used approximately $11.0 million from the proceeds from the Notes to repay the outstanding balance under the Company’s previously existing Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford, dated as of July 31, 2014, including the applicable final payment fee due thereunder of $1 million. The Company borrowed the Tranche 2 Term Loan in November 2016 upon the Lenders’ confirmation that the Company received positive data in its U.S. pivotal trial of Eversense, and the Company submitted a pre-market approval (“PMA”) application for Eversense in the United States with the FDA. The Company borrowed the Tranche 3 Term Loan in March 2017 upon completion of the first commercial sale of its second-generation transmitter in the European Union. The Company may borrow the Tranche 4 Term Loan on or before December 31, 2017 if it receives PMA approval from the FDA for Eversense, and achieves trailing six-month revenue for the applicable period of measurement of at least $4.0 million. The maturity date for all Term Loans is June 1, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”).

 

The Term Loans bear interest at a floating annual rate of 6.31% plus the greater of (i) 90-day U.S. Dollar LIBOR reported in the Wall Street Journal or (ii) 0.64%, provided that the minimum floor interest rate is 6.95%, and require monthly payments. The monthly payments initially consist of interest-only.  After 18 months, the monthly payments will convert to payments of principal and monthly accrued interest, with the principal amount being amortized over the ensuing 30 months.

 

The Company may elect to prepay all Term Loans prior to the Maturity Date subject to a prepayment fee equal to 3.00% if the prepayment occurs within one year of the funding date of any Term Loan, 2.00% if the prepayment occurs during the second year following the funding date of any Term Loan, and 1.00% if the prepayment occurs more than two years after the funding date of any Term Loan and prior to the Maturity Date. 

The Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement contains customary events of default, including

12


 

bankruptcy, the failure to make payments when due, the occurrence of a material impairment on the Lenders’ security interest over the collateral, a material adverse change, the occurrence of a default under certain other agreements entered into by the Company, the rendering of certain types of judgments against the Company, the revocation of certain government approvals of the Company, violation of covenants, and incorrectness of representations and warranties in any material respect.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default, subject to specified cure periods, all amounts owed by the Company would begin to bear interest at a rate that is 5.00% above the rate effective immediately before the event of default, and may be declared immediately due and payable by Lenders.

 

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, the Company also issued 10-year stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 116,581,  63,025 and 80,645 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.86,  $2.38 and $1.86 per share, respectively (see Note 9).

 

The Notes are collateralized by all of the Company’s consolidated assets other than its intellectual property. The Notes also contain certain restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens, merge with other companies or consummate certain changes of control, acquire other companies, engage in new lines of business, make certain investments, pay dividends, transfer or dispose of assets, amend certain material agreements or enter into various specified transactions, as well as financial reporting requirements. The Company incurred issuance costs related to the Notes of approximately $568,648 that are being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method. The fair value of the stock purchase warrants, which was estimated to be $526,209, was recorded as a discount to the Notes, which is also being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method.

 

At maturity (or earlier prepayment), the Company is also required to make a final payment equal to 9.00% of the aggregate principal balances of the funded Term Loans. This fee is being accrued as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method. In the event that the Company achieves the requirements to borrow the Tranche 4 Term Loan, and elects not to borrow the Tranche 4 Term Loan, the Company is obligated to pay the Lenders a non-utilization fee of 2.00% of the undrawn amounts.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s authorized capital stock included 5,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.  No shares of preferred stock were outstanding as of March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

 

Common Stock

 

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s authorized capital stock included 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Company had 94,098,515 and 93,569,642 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

 

13


 

Stock Purchase Warrants

 

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company also issued to the Lenders 10-year stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 116,581,  63,025 and 80,645 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.86,  $2.38 and $1.86 per share, respectively. The fair value of the warrants, which the Company estimated to be $526,209, was recorded as a discount to the Notes. These warrants expire on June 30, 2026, November 22, 2026, and March 29, 2027, respectively, and are classified in equity. In connection with the Company’s original Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford in 2014, the Company issued to Oxford 10-year stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 167,570 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.79 per share. The fair value of the warrants, which the Company estimated to be $205,150, was recorded as a discount to the promissory notes issued to Oxford in connection with the original Loan and Security Agreement. These warrants expire on November 2, 2020, July 14, 2021 and August 19, 2021, and are classified in equity. The unamortized deferred financing fees and debt discount related to the notes rollover amount will be amortized along with the deferred financing costs and the discount created by the new issuance of the warrants over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded amortization of discount of debt of $53,648 and $14,327, respectively, within interest expense in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

 

Restricted Stock Awards

 

The Company issued 398,525 shares of restricted stock to the chairman of the Company’s board of directors (the “Chairman”) in December 2015, half of which were vested upon grant and half of which vested upon the completion of the Offering, pursuant to an agreement between the Company and the Chairman, as described in greater detail in Note 10. In June 2016, the Company issued a fully vested restricted stock award for 300,000 shares of common stock to the Chairman to settle the outstanding obligations under the agreement. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0 and $387,600 in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to the grant and vesting of this restricted stock.

 

Stock‑Based Compensation

 

In December 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) under which incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options may be granted to the Company’s employees and certain other persons in accordance with the 2015 Plan provisions. In connection with the Offering, the Company’s board of directors adopted and the Company’s stockholders approved an Amended and Restated 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “amended and restated 2015 Plan”). The amended and restated 2015 Plan became effective as of the date of the pricing of the Offering. The Company’s board of directors may terminate the amended and restated 2015 Plan at any time. Options granted under the amended and restated 2015 Plan expire ten years after the date of grant.

 

Pursuant to the amended and restated 2015 Plan, the number of shares initially reserved for issuance pursuant to equity awards was 17,251,115 shares, representing 8,000,000 shares plus up to an additional 9,251,115 shares in the event that options that were outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive plans as of February 16, 2016 expire or otherwise terminate without having been exercised (in such case, the shares not acquired will revert to and become available for issuance under the amended and restated 2015 Plan). The number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the amended and restated 2015 Plan will automatically increase on January 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2017 and ending on January 1, 2026, by 3.5% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year, or a lesser number of shares as may be determined by the Company’s board of directors. As of March 31, 2017, 5,659,831 shares remained available for grant under the amended and restated 2015 Plan.

 

On May 8, 1997, the Company adopted the 1997 Stock Option Plan (the “1997 Plan”), under which incentive stock options and non‑qualified stock options may be granted to the Company’s employees and certain other persons in accordance with the 1997 Plan provisions. Approximately 8,523,464 shares of the Company’s common stock underlying options have vested or are expected to vest under the 1997 Plan. Upon the effectiveness of the 2015 Plan, the Company no longer grants any awards under the 1997 Plan.

14


 

The Company recognizes the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant. The estimated fair value of stock options on the date of grant is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award for those awards with service conditions only. For awards that also contain performance conditions, expense is recognized beginning at the time the performance condition is considered probable of being met over the remaining vesting period. 

10.Related Party Transactions

 

In December 2015, the Chairman received a restricted stock award of 398,525 shares of common stock pursuant to an agreement entered into with the Company (the “December Agreement”) that superseded a pre-existing agreement. One half of the shares covered by this restricted stock award were fully vested on grant. The remainder vested in full upon the completion of the Company’s Offering, which was the specific performance condition of the award. Additionally, as a result of the completion of the Offering, pursuant to the December Agreement, the Chairman was entitled to receive estimated compensation in the amount of $785,000.  In June 2016, the Chairman received a restricted stock award of 300,000 shares of common stock pursuant to an agreement entered into with the Company that superseded the December Agreement and satisfied the outstanding compensation obligation under the December Agreement. All of the shares covered by this restricted stock award were fully vested on date of grant.

11.Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value has a three level hierarchy from highest priority (Level 1) to lowest priority (Level 3). The fair value hierarchy reflects whether the inputs are observable from independent sources or rely on unobservable inputs based on the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

·

Level 1—Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities (unadjusted) in active markets.

·

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are either directly or indirectly observable for the assets or liability.

·

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity.

 

The levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk of liquidity associated with the financial assets or liabilities disclosed.

 

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

The Company has segregated its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date in the table below. The inputs used in measuring the fair value of the Company’s money market funds included in cash equivalents are considered to be Level 1 in accordance with the three-tier fair value hierarchy. The fair market values are based on period-end statements supplied by the various banks and brokers that held the majority of the funds.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

 

The Company has no financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

 

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

The Company has no non-financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Non‑Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non‑Recurring Basis

 

The Company measures its long‑lived assets, including property and equipment, at fair value on a non‑recurring basis. These assets are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be impaired. No such fair value impairment was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

12.Income Taxes

 

The Company has not recorded any tax provision or benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or March 31, 2016. The Company has provided a valuation allowance for the full amount of its net deferred tax assets since realization of any future benefit from deductible temporary differences, net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credits is not more-likely-than-not to be realized at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

13.Litigation

 

From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for litigation and claims when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company has evaluated claims in accordance with the accounting guidance for contingencies that it deems both probable and reasonably estimable and, accordingly, has recorded aggregate liabilities for all claims of approximately $40,000 as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These amounts are reported on the consolidated balance sheets within accrued and other liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities. The Company believes, based upon information it currently possesses and considering established accruals for liabilities and its insurance coverage, that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings and actions is unlikely to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We were originally incorporated as ASN Technologies, Inc. in Nevada on June 26, 2014. On December 4, 2015, we were reincorporated in Delaware and changed our name to Senseonics Holdings, Inc. Also, on December 4, 2015, we entered into a merger agreement with Senseonics, Incorporated and SMSI Merger Sub, Inc., or the Merger Agreement, to acquire Senseonics, Incorporated. Senseonics, Incorporated was originally incorporated on October 30, 1996 and commenced operations on January 15, 1997. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on December 7, 2015, referred to herein as the Acquisition. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (i) all issued and outstanding shares of Senseonics, Incorporated's preferred stock were converted into shares of Senseonics, Incorporated common stock, $0.01 par value per share, or the Senseonics Shares, (ii) all outstanding Senseonics Shares were exchanged for 57,739,953 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share, or the Company Shares, reflecting an exchange ratio of one Senseonics Share for 2.0975 Company Shares, or the Exchange Ratio, and (iii) all outstanding options and warrants to purchase Senseonics Shares, or the Senseonics Options and Senseonics Warrants, respectively, were each exchanged or replaced with options and warrants to acquire shares of our common stock, or the Company Options and Company Warrants, respectively. Accordingly, Senseonics, Incorporated became our wholly-owned subsidiary.

Following the closing of the Acquisition, the business of Senseonics, Incorporated became our sole focus and all of our operations following the closing of the Acquisition consist of the historical Senseonics, Incorporated business. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all references in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section to "the Company," "we," "our," "ours," "us" or similar terms refer to (i) Senseonics, Incorporated prior to the closing of the Acquisition, and (ii) Senseonics Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries subsequent to the closing of the Acquisition and all share and per share information in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section gives retroactive effect to the exchange of Senseonics Shares, Senseonics Options and Senseonics Warrants for Company Shares, Company Options and Company Warrants, respectively, in the Acquisition, as well as the corresponding exercise price adjustments for the such options and warrants.

 

We are a medical technology company focused on the design, development and commercialization of glucose monitoring systems to improve the lives of people with diabetes by enhancing their ability to manage their disease with relative ease and accuracy. Our first generation continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, system, Eversense, is a reliable,

17


 

long‑term, implantable CGM system that we have designed to continually and accurately measure glucose levels in people with diabetes for a period of up to 90 days, as compared to five to seven days for currently available CGM systems. We believe Eversense will provide people with diabetes with a more convenient method to monitor their glucose levels in comparison with the traditional method of self‑monitoring of blood glucose, or SMBG, as well as currently available CGM systems. In our European pivotal clinical trial, we observed that Eversense measured glucose levels over 90 days with a degree of accuracy comparable or superior to that of other currently available CGM systems.

 

Corporate History

 

From our founding in 1996 until 2010, we devoted substantially all of our resources to researching various sensor technologies and platforms. Beginning in 2010, we narrowed our focus to designing, developing and refining a commercially viable glucose monitoring system. On May 10, 2016, we received regulatory approval to commercialize Eversense in Europe. In June 2016, we made our first product shipment of Eversense through our distribution agreement with Rubin Medical, or Rubin. Since our inception, we have funded our activities primarily through equity and debt financings.

 

In March 2016, we completed a public offering of our common stock, or the Offering, selling 15,800,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $2.85 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $45.0 million. Net cash proceeds from the Offering were approximately $40.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated Offering-related transaction costs payable by us. In April 2016, the underwriters for the Offering partially exercised their option to purchase additional shares of common stock, purchasing an additional 1,439,143 shares, from which we received additional net cash proceeds of approximately $3.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated Offering-related transaction costs payable by us.

 

On June 30, 2016 we entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford Finance LLC, or Oxford, and Silicon Valley Bank, or SVB, to potentially borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million. Under the terms of the agreement, we initially borrowed an aggregate of $15 million from Oxford and SVB on June 30, 2016. We used $11 million of the $15 million to retire existing loans with Oxford, including a final payment fee of $1 million. In each of November 2016 and March 2017, we borrowed an additional $5 million upon achieving certain milestones. The agreement also permits us to borrow up to an additional $5 million upon the achievement of specified milestones through the end of 2017. The agreement provides for monthly payments of interest only for a period of 18 months, followed by an amortization period of 30 months.

 

We have never been profitable and our net losses were $13.1 million and $11.2 million for three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, our accumulated deficit totaled $217.8 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general and administrative expenses associated with our operations. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operations and net losses for the foreseeable future.

European Commercialization of Eversense

In July 2015, we applied for, and in May 2016, we received our CE mark, which allows us to market and sell Eversense in Europe. In connection with our CE Mark, we have agreed to conduct post market surveillance activities. In June 2016, we commenced commercialization of Eversense in Sweden through our distribution agreement with Rubin, which also has the right to distribute Eversense in Norway and Denmark. Rubin markets and sells medical products for diabetes treatment in the Scandinavian region, including as the exclusive Scandinavian distributor for the insulin pump manufacturer Animas Corporation.

 

In May 2016, we entered into a distribution agreement with Roche Diagnostics International AG and Roche Diabetes Care GmbH, together referred to as Roche, pursuant to which we granted Roche the exclusive right to market, sell and distribute Eversense in Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.  In November 2016, we entered into an amendment to the distribution agreement granting Roche the exclusive right to market, sell and distribute Eversense in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, excluding Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Israel. Roche is a pioneer in the development of blood glucose monitoring systems and a global leader for diabetes management systems and services. We began distributing Eversense through Roche in Germany in September 2016 and in Italy and the Netherlands in the fourth quarter of 2016.

United States Development of Eversense

 In 2016, we completed our Precise II pivotal clinical trial in the United States. This trial, which was fully enrolled with 90 subjects, was conducted at eight sites in the United States. In the trial, we measured the accuracy of Eversense measurements through 90 days after insertion. We also assessed safety through 90 days after insertion or through sensor removal. In the trial, we observed a mean absolute relative difference, or MARD, of 8.8% utilizing two calibration points for Eversense across the 40-400 mg/dL range when compared to YSI blood reference values during the 90-day continuous wear period. Based on the data from this trial, in October 2016 we submitted a pre-market approval, or PMA, application to the FDA to market Eversense in the United States. While we expect that the PMA process can take as long as 18 months, we are currently anticipating approval by the end of 2017. However, the ultimate timing of PMA approval is uncertain and will depend on many factors, including whether the FDA would require the review of Eversense by an advisory panel and the related logistics of convening a panel, the degree and nature of questions raised by the FDA in its review process, and our ability to submit additional data or other information that adequately addresses questions raised by the FDA. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the timing of receipt of PMA approval, if at all. For commercialization in the United States, we intend to distribute our product through our own direct sales and marketing organization. We have received Category III CPT codes for the insertion and removal of Eversense. Following PMA approval, we intend to pursue a Category I CPT code.

 

We expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution. In addition, we expect that our expenses will increase substantially as we continue the research and development of our other products and maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio and seek regulatory approvals in other jurisdictions. Furthermore, we have begun to incur, and expect to continue to incur, additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including significant legal, accounting, investor relations and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We will need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise such capital as and when needed would have a material and adverse impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop and commercialize Eversense and future products and our ability to pursue our business strategy. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, and we may never do so.

 

Financial Overview

 

Revenue

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we generated product revenue from sales of the Eversense system in Europe pursuant to distribution agreements with Roche and Rubin, and we expect to begin marketing Eversense in additional European countries during 2017.  We expect our revenue from European product sales will increase as we ramp up our commercialization efforts through the remainder of 2017 and into 2018. In the future, subject to regulatory approval, we also intend to seek to commercialize Eversense in the United States, as well as other international markets. If we fail to successfully commercialize or are otherwise unable to complete the development of Eversense, our ability to generate future revenue, and our results of operations and financial position, will be adversely affected.

 

Cost of Sales

 

We utilize contract manufacturers to produce Eversense. Cost of sales consists primarily of the components of Eversense and assembly, as well as reserves for warranty costs. Other cost of sales includes distribution-related expenses such as logistics and shipping costs of Eversense to Roche and Rubin for distribution in various regions in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. We calculate gross margin as revenue less costs of sales divided by revenue. We expect our overall gross margin to improve over the long term, as our sales increase and we have more opportunities to spread our costs over larger production volumes. However, our gross margins may fluctuate from period to period.

 

19


 

Sales and Marketing

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and other related costs, including stock‑based compensation, for personnel who perform sales and marketing functions. Other significant costs include promotional materials and tradeshow expenses.

 

We anticipate that our sales and marketing expenses will increase in the future as we continue to expand our commercialization of Eversense.

 

Research and Development

 

The largest component of our total operating expenses has historically been research and development expenses. Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing Eversense, including our clinical trials and feasibility studies. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees including stock‑based compensation, overhead expenses, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to contract research organizations and other consultants, and other outside expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

We have incurred significant research and development expenses from inception, with the substantial majority of the expenses spent on the development of Eversense. We expect to continue to commit significant resources to continue to develop Eversense and future product enhancements and to conduct ongoing and future clinical trials. We expect that our overall research and development expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars, but to decline as a percentage of total expenses as we commercialize our products.

 

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other related costs, including stock‑based compensation, for personnel in our executive, finance, accounting, business development, and human resources functions. Other significant costs include facility costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses, legal fees relating to patent and corporate matters and fees for accounting and consulting services.

 

Our general and administrative expenses have increased, and we expect them to continue to increase in the future, as a result of operating as a public company. These increases include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and increased fees to outside consultants, lawyers and accountants as well as expenses related to maintaining compliance with NYSE-MKT listing rules and SEC requirements, insurance, and investor relations costs. These expenses may further increase when we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, which will require us to comply with certain reporting requirements from which we are currently exempt.

 

Other Income (Expense), Net

 

Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash equivalents and interest expense primarily consists of interest expense on the secured notes, or the Notes, we issued to Oxford in connection with our original Loan and Security Agreement in July and December 2014 and the Notes we issued to Oxford and SVB in connection with our Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement in June 2016, November 2016 and March 2017. We refer to Oxford and SVB together as the Lenders. This interest expense primarily consists of (i) contractual interest on the Notes, (ii) amortization of debt discount related to warrants, or the warrants, that we issued to the Lenders in connection with the Notes, and (iii) the accrual into interest expense of a final payment obligation that we are required to pay to the Lenders at maturity of the Notes.

Revenue

 

Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $0.6 million resulted from shipments of Eversense to Rubin and Roche for distribution in Europe. We did not generate any revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

Cost of sales

 

Our cost of sales was $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting from the manufacturing and distribution of Eversense to Roche and Rubin for distribution in various regions in Europe. We did not have any cost of sales during the three months ended March  31, 2016.

 

Gross profit was $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We did not have any gross profit during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Gross margin was (89)% in the three months ended March 31, 2017. 

 

Sales and marketing expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses were $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $0.5 million. The $0.5 million increase was primarily due to a $0.1 million increase in salaries, bonuses and payroll related costs for additional headcount, and a $0.4 million increase in sales and marketing expenses, such as for packaging, labeling, translation and European consultants, as we supported our continued European distribution of Eversense.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses were $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $0.6 million. The increase was primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in product development expenses for future versions of Eversense and a $0.5 million increase in additional salaries, bonus and payroll related costs, partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease related to clinical trial expenses, and a $0.1 million decrease, including reduced expense for consultants, lab supplies and shipping.

21


 

 

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses were $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of $0.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to a $0.5 million decrease in salaries, bonuses and payroll related costs primarily due to a reduction in stock-based compensation expense from 2016 restricted stock awards,  offset by a $0.4 million increase in other expenses to support administration.

 

Total other expense, net

 

Total other expense, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively, consisting primarily of interest expense on our debt facilities.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Sources of Liquidity

 

From our founding in 1996 until 2010, we devoted substantially all of our resources to researching various sensor technologies and platforms. Beginning in 2010, we narrowed our focus to designing, developing and refining a commercially viable glucose monitoring system. However, to date, we have not generated any significant revenue from product sales. We have incurred substantial losses and cumulative negative cash flows from operations since our inception in October 1996. We have never been profitable and our net losses were $13.1 million and $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, our accumulated deficit totaled $217.8 million.

 

To date, we have funded our operations principally through the issuance of preferred stock, common stock and debt. As of March 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $13.8 million. On March 23, 2016, we closed the Offering of our common stock. Additionally, we closed on the partial exercise by the underwriters of the Offering on their option to purchase additional shares on April 5, 2016. As a result of these events, we received aggregate net proceeds of $44.8 million (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions of $2.7 million and additional offering related costs of $1.4 million). Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford and SVB, we may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million. Under this debt facility, we initially borrowed an aggregate of $15 million from Oxford and SVB on June 30, 2016. We used $11 million of the $15 million to retire existing loans with Oxford, including a final payment fee of $1 million. In each of November 2016 and March 2017, we borrowed an additional $5 million from Oxford and SVB upon achieving certain milestones. The agreement provides for monthly payments of interest only for a period of 18 months, followed by an amortization period of 30 months.

 

Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability depends on our completion of the development of Eversense and future product candidates and obtaining of necessary regulatory approvals for the manufacture, marketing and sales of those products. These activities, including our planned significant research and development efforts, will require significant uses of working capital through 2017 and beyond. Upon the completion of the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, we did not have sufficient cash to fund our operations beyond the third quarter of 2017 without additional financing and, therefore, we concluded there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph regarding this uncertainty in its report on those consolidated financial statements. The financial information throughout this Quarterly Report and the unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report have been prepared on a basis that assumes that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. This financial information and these statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

We expect our existing capital resources as of March 31, 2017 will enable us to fund our operations into the third quarter of 2017, without receiving additional funding.

 

22


 

Indebtedness

 

On June 30, 2016, we entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with the Lenders. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, we may potentially borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million in the following four tranches: $15.0 million, or the Tranche 1 Term Loan; $5.0 million, or the Tranche 2 Term Loan; $5.0 million, or the Tranche 3 Term Loan; and $5.0 million, or the Tranche 4 Term Loan. We refer to each of the tranches as a Term Loan, and collectively, the Term Loans. The funding conditions for the Tranche 1 Term Loan were satisfied as of June 30, 2016. Therefore, we issued secured notes to the Lenders for aggregate gross proceeds of $15.0 million, or the Notes, on June 30, 2016. We used approximately $11.0 million from the proceeds from the Notes to repay the outstanding balance under our previously existing Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford, dated as of July 31, 2014, including the applicable final payment fee due thereunder of $1 million. On November 22, 2016, the funding conditions for the Tranche 2 Term Loan were satisfied; therefore we issued secured notes to the Lenders for aggregate gross proceeds of $5.0 million. On March 29, 2017, the funding conditions for the Tranche 3 Term Loan were satisfied; therefore we issued secured notes to the Lenders for aggregate gross proceeds of $5.0 million. We may borrow the Tranche 4 Term Loan on or before December 31, 2017 if we receive PMA approval from the FDA for Eversense, and achieve trailing six-month revenue for the applicable period of measurement of at least $4.0 million. The maturity date for all Term Loans is June 1, 2020, or the Maturity Date.

 

The Term Loans bear interest at a floating annual rate of 6.31% plus the greater of (i) 90-day U.S. Dollar LIBOR reported in the Wall Street Journal or (ii) 0.64%, provided that the minimum floor interest rate is 6.95%, and require monthly payments. The monthly payments initially consist of interest-only. After 18 months, the monthly payments will convert to payments of principal and monthly accrued interest, with the principal amount being amortized over the ensuing 30 months.

 

We may elect to prepay all Term Loans prior to the Maturity Date subject to a prepayment fee equal to 3.00% if the prepayment occurs within one year of the funding date of any Term Loan, 2.00% if the prepayment occurs during the second year following the funding date of any Term Loan, and 1.00% if the prepayment occurs more than two years after the funding date of any Term Loan and prior to the Maturity Date. 

The Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement contains customary events of default, including bankruptcy, the failure to make payments when due, the occurrence of a material impairment on the Lenders’ security interest over the collateral, a material adverse change, the occurrence of a default under certain other agreements entered into by us, the rendering of certain types of judgments against us, the revocation of certain of our government approvals, violation of covenants, and incorrectness of representations and warranties in any material respect.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default, subject to specified cure periods, all amounts owed by us would begin to bear interest at a rate that is 5.00% above the rate effective immediately before the event of default, and may be declared immediately due and payable by Lenders.

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, we also issued to the Lenders 10‑year stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 116,581, 63,025 and 80,645 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.86, $2.38, and $1.86 per share.

The Notes are collateralized by all of our consolidated assets other than our intellectual property. The Notes also contain certain restrictive covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens, merge with other companies or consummate certain changes of control, acquire other companies, engage in new lines of business, make certain investments, pay dividends, transfer or dispose of assets, amend certain material agreements or enter into various specified transactions, as well as financial reporting requirements. We incurred issuance costs related to the Notes of approximately $568,648 that are being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method. The fair value of the stock purchase warrants, which was estimated to be $526,209, was recorded as a discount to the Notes, which is also being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method.

 

At maturity (or earlier prepayment), we are also required to make a final payment equal to 9.00% of the aggregate principal balances of the funded Term Loans. This fee is being accrued as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method. In the event that we achieve the requirements to borrow the

23


 

Tranche 4 Term Loan, and elect not to borrow that tranche, we are obligated to pay the Lenders a non-utilization fee of 2.00% of the undrawn amount.

Net cash used in investing activities was $37,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and consisted entirely of capital expenditures for laboratory equipment.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and consisted primarily of the net proceeds received from the issuance of notes payable of $5.0 million and the exercise of stock options of $0.2 million, partially offset by the amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discount of $0.1 million.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $40.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and consisted primarily of the net proceeds from the Offering.

Off‑Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 we did not have, and we do not currently have, any off‑balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC rules.

 

JOBS Act

 

In April 2012, the JOBS Act was enacted. Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period, and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies.

 

We are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on other exemptions and reduced reporting requirements under the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions, as an emerging growth company, we may rely on certain of these exemptions, including without limitation, (i) not being required to provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes‑Oxley Act and (ii) not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements, known as the auditor discussion and analysis. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (a) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.07 billion or more; (b) the last day of our fiscal year ending December 31, 2019; (c) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous six years; or (d) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

 

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. In accordance with GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances at the time such estimates are made. Actual results may differ materially from our estimates and judgments under different assumptions or conditions. We periodically review our

25


 

estimates in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in our financial statements prospectively from the date of the change in estimate.

 

Management considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to our financial condition and results of operations, and if it requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in its application. The development and selection of these critical accounting policies have been determined by our management. Due to the significant judgment involved in selecting certain of the assumptions used in these areas, it is possible that different parties could choose different assumptions and reach different conclusions.

 

We believe there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and use of estimates as disclosed in the footnotes to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2017.

 

 

ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

The market risk inherent in our financial instruments and in our financial position represents the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2017, we had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $13.8 million. We generally hold our cash in interest-bearing money market accounts. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. Due to the short-term maturities of our cash equivalents and the low risk profile of our investments, an immediate 100 basis point change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our cash equivalents. Additionally, the interest rate on our Notes is fixed. We do not currently engage in hedging transactions to manage our exposure to interest rate risk.

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

We expect that our international sales through distributors and the costs we incur in connection with our international operations will be denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, we do not expect that our results of operations will be materially affected by foreign exchange rate risks. However, our distributors' sales of our products in international markets to their customers will be denominated in local currencies. Therefore, it is possible that, when the U.S. dollar appreciates, products sales could be adversely impacted, as our products will become more expensive to the customers of our distributors. We do not currently engage in any hedging transactions to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk.

 

 

ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer, who is our principal executive officer, and our chief financial officer, who is our principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2017, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as set forth in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms promulgated by the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

26


 

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2017, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we are subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings and we are not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceeding against us that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

 

 

 

ITEM 1A: Risk Factors

 

Our business is subject to risks and events that, if they occur, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the trading price of our securities. Except for the risk factors described below, our risk factors as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have not changed materially from those described in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2017. 

Risks Related to our Financial Results and Need for Financing

 

We will need to raise substantial additional funds in the future, and these funds may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. A failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed could force us to delay, limit, scale back or cease some or all operations.

 

At the time that the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 included in this report were completed, we did not have sufficient cash to fund our operations as currently and planned to be conducted through the third quarter of 2017 without additional financing and, therefore, we concluded there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. At March 31, 2017, we had approximately $13.8 million in aggregate cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, and we have insufficient committed sources of additional capital to fund our operations as described in this Quarterly Report for more than a limited period of time. We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund our operations into the third quarter of 2017 without substantially curtailing our current and planned operations or obtaining additional financing. The continued growth of our business, including the establishment of our sales and marketing infrastructure, and research and development activities will significantly increase our expenses. In addition, the amount of our future product sales is

27


 

difficult to predict and actual sales may not be in line with our expectations. As a result, we may be required to seek substantial additional funds in the future. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

 

·

the cost of obtaining and maintaining regulatory clearance or approval for Eversense or future versions of Eversense;

·

the costs associated with developing and commercializing our products;

·

any change in our development priorities regarding our future versions of Eversense;

·

the revenue generated by sales of Eversense or future versions of Eversense;

·

the costs associated with expanding our sales and marketing infrastructure;

·

any change in our plans regarding the manner in which we choose to commercialize our products in the United States;

·

the cost of ongoing compliance with regulatory requirements;

·

expenses we incur in connection with potential litigation or governmental investigations;

·

anticipated or unanticipated capital expenditures; and

·

unanticipated general and administrative expenses.

 

As a result of these and other factors, we do not know the extent to which we may be required to raise additional capital. We may in the future seek additional capital from public or private offerings of our capital stock, borrowings under credit lines or other sources. If we issue equity or debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. In addition, if we raise additional funds through collaborations, licensing, joint ventures, strategic alliances, partnership arrangements or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our potential future products or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

 

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service our indebtedness, which currently consists of our term loan with the Lenders. In addition, although we potentially have the ability to borrow additional funds under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, we may be unable to borrow those additional funds or we may be unable to generate sufficient cash to service any additional indebtedness that we do incur.

 

In June 2016, we issued secured Notes to Oxford and SVB, or the Lenders, in a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of $15.0 million, pursuant to a Term Loan under our Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement that matures on June 1, 2020.  We used approximately $11.0 million from the proceeds from the Notes to repay the outstanding balance under our previously existing Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford, dated as of July 31, 2014, including the applicable final payment fee due thereunder of $1 million. In November 2016, we borrowed an additional $5 million upon the achievement of certain milestones, and in March 2017, we borrowed another $5 million upon the achievement of certain milestones. Our obligations under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets, other than our intellectual property. Our Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with the Lenders also contains certain restrictive covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens, merge with other companies or consummate certain changes of control, acquire other companies, engage in new lines of business, make certain investments, pay dividends, transfer or dispose of assets, amend certain material agreements or enter into various specified transactions, as well as financial reporting requirements. We were in compliance with the affirmative and restrictive covenants as of March 31, 2017. We may also enter into other debt agreements in the future which may contain similar or more restrictive terms.

 

In addition, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, we may also have the ability to borrow up to an aggregate of an additional $5 million upon the achievement of specified milestones, and the funding of specific tranches under the agreement, through the end of 2017. We will not be able to borrow the additional $5 million under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement if we do not achieve the specified milestones.

 

Our ability to make scheduled monthly payments or to refinance our debt obligations depends on numerous factors, including the amount of our cash reserves and our actual and projected financial and operating performance. These amounts and our performance are subject to certain financial and business factors, as well as prevailing economic and competitive conditions, some of which may be beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will maintain a

28


 

level of cash reserves or cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our existing or future indebtedness. If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to curtail our operations, reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets or operations, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. We cannot assure you that we would be able to take any of these actions, or that these actions would permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations. Failure to comply with the conditions of the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement could result in an event of default, which could result in an acceleration of amounts due under the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement. We may not have sufficient funds or may be unable to arrange for additional financing to repay our indebtedness or to make any accelerated payments, and the Lenders could seek to enforce security interests in the collateral securing such indebtedness, which would have a material adverse effect on our business. 

 

 

ITEM 2: Unregistered Sales of Equity and Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

(a) Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

Between January 1, 2017 and March 31, 2017, we issued 235,407 shares of common stock upon the net exercise of warrants at an exercise price of $1.79 per share. The issuance of these securities was exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. 

 

 (b) Use of Proceeds from Public Offering of Common Stock

 

On March 17, 2016, our Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-208984) was declared effective in connection with our public offering, pursuant to which we sold 17,239,143 shares of our common stock, including the partial exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, at a price to the public of $2.85 per share. The offering closed on March 23, 2016 and we closed on the partial exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares on April 5, 2016. As a result, we received aggregate net proceeds of $44.8 million (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions of $2.7 million and additional offering related costs of $1.4 million). The joint bookrunning managing underwriters of the offering were Leerink Partners LLC and Canaccord Genuity Inc.

 

No expenses incurred by us in connection with our public offering were paid directly or indirectly to (i) any of our officers or directors or their associates, (ii) any persons owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities, or (iii) any of our affiliates, other than payments in the ordinary course of business to officers for salaries and to non-employee directors as compensation for board or board committee service.

 

There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from our public offering from that described in the final prospectus filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2016 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act. As of March 31, 2017, we had completed the application of the net proceeds from our public offering.
