Current report
We have been growing revenues while incurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and anticipate this to continue for most of 2025. Our financial performance in 2024 reflected our ability to be reimbursed by Medicare for providing the MyoPro to their beneficiaries. Our plan for 2025 is to invest in increasing demand and adding capacity to support our direct billing channel, while making investments to increase revenues in the U.S. O&P channel.

Selling, clinical and marketing
Current report
Selling, clinical, and marketing expenses increased by approximately $3.2 million or 35% in 2024 compared to 2023.

Our operating plans are primarily focused on growing revenues in our direct billing channel in 2025, while we work concurrently on growing revenues in the O&P channel. This involves increasing our advertising spending and adding headcount to increase our clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity in order to serve a higher volume of patients in 2025. These investments are expected to result in negative cash flows for at least the first three quarters of 2025.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Current report
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and updated as appropriate. Materially different results can occur if circumstances change and additional information becomes known. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Refer to Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Our most critical accounting estimates include

Current report
Timing and Amount of Revenue Recognition
Current report
The timing and amount of revenue recognized is determined based on certain estimates. For revenue derived from patients with Medicare Part B, we determined we had sufficient payment history in order to recognize revenue upon delivery of the device to the patient based on the published fees by CMS. With respect to patients with Medicare Advantage or other commercial insurance, except for a small number of payers, we do not have contracts to establish pricing or provide evidence of an arrangement. As a result, we rely on a history of payments after receiving an insurance authorization, delivery of the device and submission of a claim as evidence of an arrangement. Payment history is also used to estimate how much we expect to be paid upon delivery of our device and submission of an insurance claim, which determines how much revenue we recognize. For other Medicare Advantage and other commercial insurance payers, we have determined that we do not have sufficient collection history with the payer to assert evidence of an arrangement and collectibility. For these payers, revenue is recognized at payment, which is when we can determine how much we will be paid for the device.
Current report
Discount Rate on Leases
Current report
We estimate the discount rate applied to the lease payments under a lease. The discount rate is based on the interest rate on our line of credit or other inputs in the absence of a debt facility. The discount rate impacts the valuation of the lease asset and liability, as well as the periodic amortization of right of use assets in the statement of operations.
Current report
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 “Segmented Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”. ASU 2023-07 focuses on the requirements to disclose its significant segment expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment. ASU 2023-07 became effective with the calendar year 2024 year-end financial statements. We have adopted these new standards, which did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Previous report
We have been growing revenues while incurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and anticipate this to continue at least through the third quarter of 2024. We believe it is achievable to be cash flow breakeven on a quarterly basis by the fourth quarter of 2024 assuming the final fees published by CMS are not significantly different than the preliminary fees published, that we are able to hire 50 additional employees by the end of the second quarter of 2024 in order to increase our clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity to serve an expected increase in volume from Medicare Part B beneficiaries and there are no unexpected supply chain disruptions.

Previous wording
We utilize digital ads on various platforms as well as television ads to reach patients who are potential candidates for our product. Once the prospective patient contacts us or is referred to us, either our trained clinical staff or a trained O&P provider will evaluate the patient for their suitability as a candidate. Initial evaluations by our trained clinical staff are conducted using telehealth techniques, followed by an in-person clinical evaluation of the candidate. Prior to obtaining authorizations from commercial insurance companies, the patient’s medical records are collected and reviewed to make sure the device is appropriate for their condition and a prescription is always obtained from a physician. Once these documents are obtained, a pre-authorization request is submitted to the patient’s insurer. If we receive a pre-authorization, we proceed to measure the patient’s arm. Beginning in 2022, this is being done in some cases using a remote measurement kit supplied to the patient. We then use those measurements to 3D print orthotic parts, which are used to fabricate the MyoPro, and then deliver it to the patient. Since we are directly providing the device to the patient and then billing insurance ourselves, we refer to this process as direct billing. We also call on hospitals and O&P practices in the United States, Europe and Australia that provide our products to their patients as well as generate indirect sales. The MyoPro product line has been approved by the VA system for impaired veterans, and over 70 VA facilities have ordered devices for their patients.

Once these documents are obtained, if the patient has Medicare Advantage or other commercial insurance, a pre-authorization request is submitted to the patient’s insurer. If we receive a pre-authorization, we proceed to measure the patient’s arm a process we call shape capture. In many cases, shape capture is done using a remote measurement kit supplied to the patient. If the patient is covered by Medicare Part B, no pre-authorization is required and we can move directly to taking measurements of the patient's arm. We then use those measurements to 3D print orthotic parts, which are used to fabricate the MyoPro, and then deliver it to the patient. Since we are directly providing the device to the patient and then billing insurance ourselves, we refer to this process as direct billing.

In August 2023, we completed a public equity offering pursuant to which we sold 5,413,334 shares of common stock and 1,920,000 pre-funded warrants at $0.60 per share or at $0.5999 per warrant, generating proceeds after fees and expenses of approximately $3.9 million. In January 2023, we completed an equity offering under which we sold 13,169,074 shares of common stock and 6,830,926 pre-funded warrants at $0.325 per share, generating proceeds after fees and expenses of approximately $5.7 million. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we sold 692,914 shares of common stock under a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Keystone Capital Partners, LLC at a weighted average sales price of $0.683 per share, generating proceeds after fees and expenses of approximately $0.4 million. Considering our cash balance as of December 31, 2023, the net proceeds from the equity offering in January 2024 and managements plans to grow our clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity to serve Medicare Part B beneficiaries in 2024, management believes there will be sufficient cash to fund our operations and capital expenditures for the next 12 months from the date of this report.

In July 2024, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, a division of First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company, which provides us the ability to borrow up to $4.0 million against eligible accounts receivable. The line of credit remains undrawn as of the issuance date of these financial statements. Availability under the line of credit is approximately $1.0 million based on eligible accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024. We amended the Loan and Security Agreement in February 2025 to provide for, among other changes, a $3 million term loan facility, which is available to be drawn at any time until February 28, 2026.

Our business is dependent upon reimbursement of our products by insurance companies and government-controlled health care plans such as Medicare and Medicaid in the United States and by Statutory Health Insurance plans in Germany, which could prevent our revenues from growing to the level necessary to achieve cash flow breakeven. We believe that we have access to capital resources, if necessary, through potential public or private equity offerings, exercises of outstanding warrants, debt financings, or other means. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms. We may also explore strategic alternatives for the purpose of maximizing stockholder value. There can be no assurance we will be successful in implementing our plans to sustain our operations and continue to conduct our business.
