Current report

On April 25, 2024, seven Medicare Part A/B MACs published new proposed LCDs for skin substitute grafts/CTPs for the treatment of DFUs and VLUs in the Medicare population. These LCDs were finalized by the MACs on November 14, 2024, and were originally set to become effective on February 12, 2025. However, on January 24, 2025, the MACs announced a delay in the implementation of the LCDs until April 13, 2025. Under the new LCDs finalized in November 2024, should they take effect as scheduled, eighteen products would remain covered, including our Apligraf and Dermagraft products for DFU and VLU, and our Affinity and NuShield products for DFU; however, more than 200 products would be classified as “non-covered,” including our PuraPly, PuraPly AM, PuraPly XT, Novachor, TransCyte, Dual and Matrix products for DFU and VLU. The LCDs as finalized apply only to DFU and VLU indications for skin substitute products; other indications would remain subject to case-by-case review of medical necessity by the MACs if the LCDs take effect. It is uncertain if there will be further delays in implementing the new LCDs and/or if the new LCDs will be revised or rescinded going forward. If implemented, the LCDs could materially impact utilization of these products, our business, and our revenue. Any future changes or other developments related to these or other LCDs also could affect utilization of our products, our business, and our revenue.

Amount reflects the impairment of a purchased building and associated unfinished construction work. See Note 8, Property and Equipment, Net to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report

Amount reflects the write-down of costs previously capitalized as construction in progress in the development of internal-use software, that the Company determined have no future value. See Note 8, Property and Equipment, Netto our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report

Amount reflects construction in progress terminated and disposed of at one of our Canton, Massachusetts facilities, resulting from the Company’s decision to move certain operations to the Smithfield Facility.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2024, cost of goods sold increased by $9.3 million, or 9%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in cost of goods sold was primarily driven by an increase in volume along with product mix, as well as the construction in progress terminated and disposed of at one of our Canton, Massachusetts facilities, resulting from the Company’s decision to move certain operations to the Smithfield Facility.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $24.8 million, or 9%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a $19.8 million increase in royalty expense; a $4.4 million increase in building and other facilities expense; and a $3.1 million increase in the allowance for expected credit losses. These increases in expenses were partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in commissions, restructuring and other headcount-related expense; and a $1.5 million decrease in amortization expense.

Current report

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a $4.0 million write down of costs related to internal-use software and an $18.8 million impairment of a purchased building and associated unfinished construction work. There were no such costs recorded in the year ended December 31, 2023. See Note 8, Property and Equipment, Net, to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2024, total other expense, net, decreased by $0.6 million, or 29%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the balance of the Term Loan Facility, leading to lower interest expense in 2024.

Current report

Since our inception, we have funded our operations and capital expenditures through cash flows from product sales, loans from affiliates and entities controlled by certain of our affiliates, third-party debt and proceeds from the sale of our capital stock. In November 2024, we issued 130,000 shares of our newly-created Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, for total net proceeds of $120.6 million. We used $66.6 million of the proceeds to repay the balance on our Term Loan Facility, and $25.5 million for the repurchase of 7,921,731 shares of outstanding Class A common stock from certain members of the Significant Stockholder Group.

Current report

During the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $14.2 million, resulting from our net income of $0.9 million, non-cash charges of $62.2 million, partially offset by net cash used in connection with changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $48.9 million. Net cash used in changes in our operating assets and liabilities included an increase in accounts receivable of $31.8 million, an increase in inventories of $6.2 million, an increase prepaid expenses and other current and other assets of $2.5 million, a decrease in net operating lease liabilities of $14.1 million, and a decrease in accounts payable of $2.4 million; partially offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $9.2 million, and a decrease in other liabilities of $1.1 million.

Current report

Current report

During the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $27.6 million. This consisted primarily of proceeds from issuance of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, net of issuance costs of $120.7 million, and net payments of $0.1 million in connection with stock awards activities; partially offset by repayment of our Term Loan Facility of $66.6 million, payments for repurchases of our Class A common stock of $25.5 million, and payments on our finance lease obligations of $1.1 million.

Previous report

We generated net revenue of $433.1 million, $450.9 million, and $467.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. We reported net income of $4.9 million, $15.5 million, and $94.2 million (which includes a $48.3 million benefit from release of a tax valuation allowance) for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. While we reported net income for the most recent four years, we have incurred significant losses since inception and we may incur operating losses in the future as we expend resources as part of our efforts to grow our organization to support the planned expansion of our business. As of December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $41.0 million. Our primary sources of capital to date have been from sales of our products, borrowings from related parties and institutional lenders and proceeds from the sale of our Class A common stock. We operate as one segment of regenerative medicine.

Previous report

On September 17, 2020, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of CPN Biosciences, LLC (CPN) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated July 24, 2020, which was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The aggregated consideration amounted to $19.0 million as of the acquisition date which consisted of $6.4 million in cash, 2,151,438 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $8.8 million, and a contingent consideration (the Earnout) with a fair value at such time of $3.8 million. At the closing, we paid $5.8 million in cash and issued 1,947,953 shares of our Class A common stock. The remaining consideration of $1.4 million was held back and was released in April 2022 by the Company paying $0.6 million in cash and issuing 203,485 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to the former equity holders of CPN. As of the conclusion of the Earnout period on June 30, 2022, the Company calculated the Earnout liability to be $0. The results of operations of CPN have been included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.

Previous report

In August 2023, three MACs issued LCDs eliminating coverage for DFUs and VLUs for over 130 products, including five of our commercially marketed products. The LCDs were scheduled to take effect on September 17, 2023, and subsequently delayed to October 1, 2023. Given the potential adverse impact these LCDs could have on patients and on our business, we worked with our advisors to convince the MACs to withdraw the LCDs and incurred legal expenses and compensation expenses related to retention for impacted sales employees of $1.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023. On September 28, 2023, the three MACs withdrew the LCDs. Notwithstanding the ultimate withdrawal of the LCDs, we believe that some of our customers elected to purchase covered products from our competitors, reducing our revenue for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2023.

Previous report

Loss on the extinguishment of debt— In August 2021, upon entering into the 2021 Credit Agreement, we paid an aggregate amount of $70.6 million associated with the termination of the 2019 Credit Agreement, including unpaid principal, accrued interest, the Final Payment and a prepayment fee. We recognized $1.9 million as loss on the extinguishment of the loan for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Previous report

Amounts reflect the collection of certain notes receivable from related parties previously reserved. See Note 19, Related Party Transactions, to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Previous report

Amounts reflect the change in the fair value of the earnout liability in connection with the CPN acquisition. See Note 3, Acquisition to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Previous report

Amount reflects the loss recognized on the extinguishment of the 2019 Credit Agreement upon repayment in 2021. See Note 12, Long-Term Debt Obligations, to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Previous report

For the year ended December 31, 2022, cost of goods sold decreased by $9.2 million, or 8%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to decreased sales volume in our Advanced Wound Care and Surgical & Sports Medicine products.

Previous report

For the year ended December 31, 2022, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $33.6 million, or 13%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a $12.2 million increase related to additional headcount, primarily in our direct sales force, a $10.0 million increase related to increased travel and marketing programs amid the relaxed COVID-19 travel restrictions, a $5.6 million increase in legal, royalty and consulting costs associated with the ongoing operations of our business and the ERP system implementation, and a $4.2 million charge for disposal of certain equipment related to the construction in progress at one of the Company's Canton Massachusetts facilities and $0.6 million cancellation fees incurred in connection with the Company’s decision to pause the construction project for the same facility. In addition, in the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a $4.0 million reduction to the selling, general and administrative expenses related to the CPN Earnout fair value adjustments. These increases were partially offset by a $1.7 million miscellaneous decrease and a $1.3 million decrease in restructuring costs due to the smaller scale of the restructuring activities associated with closing the Birmingham office in 2022 as compared to the restructuring activities associated with closing the La Jolla office in 2021.

Previous report

For the year ended December 31, 2022, total other expense, net, decreased by $7.1 million, or 78%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in interest expense in 2022 resulted from the lower interest rate for the borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement. Loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.9 million in 2021 was related to loss recognized on the extinguishment of the 2019 Credit Agreement upon repayment in August 2021.

Previous report

During the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $62.0 million, resulting from our net income of $94.2 million, non-cash charges of $4.8 million, partially offset by net cash used in connection with changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $37.0 million. The non-cash charges of $4.8 million consisted of $36.8 million standard non-cash items primarily related to depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and inventory reserve, partially offset by the deferred tax benefit of $32.0 million primarily resulting from the release of the valuation allowance previously recorded against the full amount of our net U.S. deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021. Net cash used in changes in our operating assets and liabilities included an increase in accounts receivable of $28.7 million, an increase in inventory of $9.3 million, and a decrease in operating leases and other liabilities of $12.2 million, all of which were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $13.2 million.

The net cash used in financing activities was principally offset by $73.2 million in net proceeds from the 2021 Credit Agreement and $2.2 million in proceeds from the exercise of common stock options.

Previous report

In March 2019, we, our subsidiaries and SVB, and several other lenders thereto entered into a credit agreement, as amended (the 2019 Credit Agreement), providing for a term loan facility of $40.0 million and a revolving credit facility of up to $60.0 million. Both facilities were set to mature in 2024. In August 2021, upon entering into the 2021 Credit Agreement, we settled the 2019 Credit Agreement. For a further description of the 2019 Credit Agreement, see Note 12, Long-Term Debt Obligations, included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Previous report

We generate revenue through the sale of Advanced Wound Care and Surgical & Sports Medicine products. There is a single performance obligation in all of our contracts, which is our promise to transfer our product to customers based on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement. The entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. Product revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of our product which occurs at a point in time and may be upon shipment, procedure date, or delivery, based on the terms of the contract. Revenue is recorded net of a reserve for returns, discounts and GPO rebates, which represent a direct reduction to the revenue we recognize. These reductions are accrued at the time revenue is recognized, based upon historical experience and specific circumstances.

Previous report

Accounts receivables are stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for credit losses. We continually monitor customer payments and maintain a reserve for estimated losses resulting from our customers’ inability to make required payments. We consider factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable balances, geography-related risks and economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. In cases where there are circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, a specific allowance is recorded against amounts due, and thereby reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably believed to be collectible. Accounts receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Previous report

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined under the first-in first-out method) or net realizable value. Inventory includes raw materials, work in process and finished goods. It also includes cell banks and the cost of tests mandated by regulatory agencies, of the materials to qualify them for production.

Previous report

We regularly review inventory quantities on hand and record a provision to write down excess and obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value based upon management’s assumptions of future material usage, yields and obsolescence, which are a result of future demand and market conditions and the effective life of certain inventory items. Our excess and obsolete inventory review process includes analysis of sales forecasts and historical sales as compared to inventory on hand and working with operations to maximize recovery of excess inventory. The estimate of excess quantities is subjective and primarily dependent on our estimate of future demand for a particular product. If the estimate of future demand is inaccurate based on actual sales, we may increase the write-down for excess inventory for that component.

We have a highly trained and specialized direct wound care sales force paired with comprehensive customer support services.

Previous wording

As previously disclosed, manufacturing of Dermagraft was suspended in the fourth quarter of 2021 and sales of Dermagraft were suspended in the second quarter of 2022. We currently plan to transition our Dermagraft manufacturing to a new manufacturing facility or engage a third-party manufacturer, which we expect will result in substantial long-term cost savings. In the period when Dermagraft is not available, we expect that customers will be willing to substitute Apligraf for Dermagraft and that the suspension of Dermagraft sales will not have a material impact on our net revenue. However, if we do not realize the expected substantial long-term cost savings or if customers are unwilling to substitute Apligraf for Dermagraft during the period in which Dermagraft is unavailable, it could have an adverse effect on our net revenue and results of operations.

Current wording

As previously disclosed, manufacturing of Dermagraft was suspended in the fourth quarter of 2021 and sales of Dermagraft were suspended in the second quarter of 2022. We currently plan to transition our Dermagraft manufacturing to our newly-leased biomanufacturing facility in Smithfield, Rhode Island, which we expect will begin in 2027, and will result in substantial long-term cost savings. If there are significant delays in the build out of the Smithfield Facility or in approval of the facility for manufacturing of Dermagraft, it could have an adverse effect on our consolidated net revenue and results of operations.

Previous wording

In November 2023, we entered into a trademark license and manufacturing agreement with Vivex to sell its Dual and Matrix products, with the option to license the VIA products. We paid an upfront licensing fee to Vivex to sell Dual and Matrix, and also agreed to pay a fixed milestone payment for Dual in the event that its ASP is published by certain government agencies for a specified period of time. In addition, the Company is required to pay a low double-digit royalty and a high single-digit royalty on the Net Sales of Dual and Matrix, respectively, during the royalty term, as defined in the agreement with Vivex. The royalty term is commensurate with the initial term of the contract and will continue for each subsequent renewal period. The initial term of the agreement expires on December 31, 2026 and can be renewed for up to five additional one-year terms. We paid $5.0 million in upfront licensing fees in the fourth quarter of 2023, and accrued an additional $2.5 million for a milestone payment that we have determined we are probable of owing to Vivex.

Current wording

We paid an upfront licensing fee to Vivex to sell Dual and Matrix, and also agreed to pay a fixed milestone payment for Dual in the event that its average sales price (ASP) is published by certain government agencies for a specified period of time, which we remitted in December 2024. Additionally, we are required to pay a low double-digit royalty on the Net Sales of Dual and VIA, and a high single-digit royalty on the Net Sales of Matrix, respectively, during the royalty term, as defined in the Vivex Agreement. The royalty term is commensurate with the initial term of the contract and will continue for each subsequent renewal period. The initial term of the agreement expires on December 31, 2026 and can be renewed for up to five additional one-year terms.

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, further adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. These items include non-cash equity compensation, restructuring charges, recovery of certain notes receivable from related parties, write-off of the capitalized costs related to certain unfinished construction work and other long-term assets, the change in the fair value of the earnout liability in connection with the CPN acquisition, fees paid in connection with settlement of previously disputed GPO fees, loss on the extinguishment of debt, and the cancellation fee for terminating certain agreements or pausing a certain construction project. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA in this Annual Report on Form 10-K because it is a key measure used by our management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of certain items in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can produce a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business.

In determining whether a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is necessary, we analyze both positive and negative evidence related to the realization of deferred tax assets including projected future taxable income, recent financial results and estimates of future reversals of deferred tax assets and liabilities. In addition, we consider whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. In consideration of the factors discussed above, in the fourth quarter of 2021, we determined it was more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would be realized in the future and released the valuation allowance on our net U.S. deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021, resulting in a benefit of $48.3 million in income taxes. We believe that our net U.S. deferred tax assets did not require a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2023.

In determining whether a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is necessary, we analyze both positive and negative evidence related to the realization of deferred tax assets including projected future taxable income, recent financial results and estimates of future reversals of deferred tax assets and liabilities. In addition, we consider whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. In consideration of the factors discussed above, in the fourth quarter of 2021, we determined it was more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would be realized in the future and released the valuation allowance on our net U.S. deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021, resulting in a benefit of $48.3 million in income taxes. We maintained the same position that our net U.S. deferred tax assets did not require a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2023.

We review long-lived assets, excluding goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Factors that we consider in deciding when to perform an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends and significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets. When such an event occurs, we determine whether there has been impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to the related asset group’s carrying value. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the asset is written down to fair value, which is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised value, depending on the nature of the asset. Significant judgments and estimates used by management when evaluating long-lived assets for impairment include: an assessment as to whether an adverse event or circumstance has triggered the need for an impairment review; determination of asset groups, the primary asset within each group, and the primary asset's average estimated useful life; undiscounted future cash flows generated by the assets; and determination of fair value when an impairment is deemed to exist, which may require assumptions related to future general economic conditions, future expected production volumes, product pricing and cost estimates, working capital and capital investment requirements, discount rates and estimated liquidation values.

Factors that we consider in deciding when to perform an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends and significant changes or planned changes in the use of our assets. When such an event occurs, we determine whether our asset groups are appropriate for impairment considerations, based on any changed facts and circumstances, and we then determine whether there has been impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to the related asset group’s carrying value. If we determine an asset to be impaired, we reduce its carrying value to fair value, which is determined based on discounted cash flows or its appraised value, depending on the nature of the asset. Judgments and estimates used by management when evaluating long-lived assets for impairment include: an assessment as to whether an adverse event or circumstance has triggered the need for an impairment review; determination of asset groups, the primary asset within each group, and the primary asset's average estimated useful life; undiscounted future cash flows generated by the assets; and determination of fair value when an impairment is deemed to exist. The estimation of fair value may require significant assumptions related to estimated future costs to prepare the impaired asset for potential sale or disposal, and the discount rate applied to estimated future cash flows generated by the assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges against these assets in the reporting period in which the impairment is identified.

We account for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the consolidated financial statements by applying a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination by the taxing authorities. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves, or unrecognized tax benefits, that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties.
