BioCardia, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
| (1) | Summary of Business and Basis of Presentation |
Description of Business
BioCardia, Inc. (we, us, our, BioCardia or the Company), is a clinical-stage company focused on developing cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases with significant unmet medical needs. We are advancing two cell therapy platforms derived from bone marrow in clinical trials today. Our CardiAMP® autologous mononuclear cell therapy platform is being advanced for two clinical indications: ischemic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and refractory angina resulting from chronic myocardial ischemia (CMI). Our allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy platform is being advanced as an “off the shelf” cell therapy for two clinical indications: the treatment of ischemic HFrEF and for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Our autologous and our allogeneic cell therapies intended for cardiac indications of HFrEF and CMI are enabled by our Helix™ minimally invasive intramyocardial therapeutic delivery platform. We partner this therapeutic delivery platform selectively with others seeking to develop biotherapeutic interventions for local delivery to the heart. To date, we have devoted substantially all our resources to research and development efforts relating to our therapeutic candidates and biotherapeutic delivery systems including conducting clinical trials, developing manufacturing and sales capabilities, in-licensing related intellectual property, providing general and administrative support for these operations and protecting our intellectual property.
We manage our operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions.
| (2) | Significant Accounting Policies |
| (a) | Basis of Preparation |
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows as of March 31, 2024, and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information and on a basis consistent with the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2024, results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2024 or for any other interim period or for any other future year.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024.
| (b) | Liquidity – Going Concern |
We have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $154.4 million as of March 31, 2024. Management expects operating losses and negative cash flows to continue through at least the next several years. We expect to incur increasing costs as we advance our trials and development activities. Therefore, absent additional funding, management believes cash and cash equivalents of $949,000 as of March 31, 2024 are not sufficient to fund our planned expenditures and meet our obligations beyond June 2024. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern beyond one year from the date these financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Our ability to continue as a going concern and to continue further development of our therapeutic candidates beyond June 2024 will require us to raise additional capital. We plan to raise additional capital, potentially including debt and equity arrangements, to finance our future operations. While management believes this plan to raise additional funds will alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt, these plans are not entirely within its control and cannot be assessed as being probable of occurring. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to reduce operating expenses, delay or reduce the scope of our product development programs, obtain funds through arrangements with others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize, or cease operations.
| (c) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include clinical accruals, share-based compensation, right-of-use assets and related liabilities, incremental borrowing rate, the useful lives of property and equipment, allowances for doubtful accounts and sales returns, and assumptions used for revenue recognition.
| (d) | Principles of Consolidation |
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, BioCardia Lifesciences, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated during the consolidation process.
| (e) | Concentration of Credit Risk |
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. Our cash at times exceeds federally insured limits of $250,000 per customer. On March 31, 2024, approximately 95% of our cash and cash equivalents were held by one financial institution and total amounts on deposit were $652,000 in excess of FDIC insurance limits. We have not recognized any losses from credit risks on such accounts since inception.
| (f) | Changes to Significant Accounting Policies |
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024. There have been no changes to those policies.
| (g) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), including its Emerging Issues Task Force, did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on our financial statement presentation or disclosures.
| (3) | Fair Value Measurement |
The fair value of financial instruments reflects the amounts that we estimate to receive in connection with the sale of an asset or paid in connection with the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). We follow a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:
Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following table sets forth the fair value of our financial assets measured on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair value (in thousands):
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets: | ||||
| Money market funds | $2 | $— | $— | $2 |
| Cash in savings account | — | — | — | 580 |
| Cash in checking account | — | — | — | 367 |

| Money market funds | $2 | $— | $— | $2 |
| Cash in savings account | — | — | — | 1,072 |
| Cash in checking account | — | — | — | 29 |
| Total cash and cash equivalents | $2 | $— | $— | $1,103 |
| (4) | Property and Equipment, Net |
Property and equipment, net consisted of the following (in thousands):
| March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Computer equipment and software | $161 | $161 |
| Laboratory and manufacturing equipment | 574 | 574 |
| Furniture and fixtures | 27 | 27 |
| Leasehold improvements | 26 | 26 |
| Property and equipment, gross | 788 | 788 |
| Less accumulated depreciation | (713) | (694) |
| Property and equipment, net | $75 | $94 |
Depreciation expense totaled $19,000 and $22,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
| (5) | Operating Lease Right-of-Use (ROU) Asset, Net |
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception by assessing whether it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Our operating lease relates to a property lease for its laboratory and corporate offices which expires in January 2027. BioCardia’s lease agreement does not contain any material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our lease does not provide an implicit rate. We used an adjusted historical incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at the approximate lease commencement date, to determine the present value of lease payments. Variable rent expense is made up of expenses for common area maintenance and shared utilities and were not included in the determination of the present value of lease payments. We have no finance leases.
Our lease expense was $121,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The cash paid under the operating lease for base rent for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $121,000 and $118,000, respectively. On March 31, 2024, the weighted average remaining lease term was 2.84 years, and the weighted average discount rate was 10.74%.
Future minimum lease payments under the operating lease as of March 31, 2024 were as follows (in thousands):
| Remainder of 2024 | $364 |
| 2025 | 499 |
| 2026 | 514 |
| 2027 | 44 |
| Total undiscounted lease payments | 1,421 |
| Less imputed interest | 193 |
| Total operating lease liabilities | $1,228 |
| (6) | Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities |
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):
| March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Accrued expenses | $116 | $75 |
| Accrued salaries and employee benefits | 837 | 661 |
| Accrued clinical trial costs | 1,140 | 1,017 |
| Grant liability | 471 | 471 |
| Customer deposits | 90 | 90 |
| Payable to related party | 42 | 71 |
| Total | $2,696 | $2,385 |

| Balance as of March 31, 2024 | 3,134,917 | $4.42 |
*February 2024 Financing -*On February 9, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase and Registration Rights Agreement relating to a private placement with certain qualified institutional buyers and institutional accredited investors, which closed on February 13, 2024. Pursuant to the agreement, we sold 2,012,978 shares of our common stock, and warrants to purchase 1,006,488 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.4423 per warrant share, subject to certain adjustments, as provided under the terms of the warrant, which are exercisable at any time before February 13, 2026. The gross proceeds of the Offering were $875,000, with associated issuance costs of $43,000.
At-the-Market (ATM) Offerings - On April 12, 2022, we entered into a sales agreement (Cantor Sales Agreement) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (Cantor) as the sales agent, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, through Cantor, shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $10.5 million (ATM Offering). Under the terms of the Cantor Sales Agreement, Cantor was paid a commission of 3% of the aggregate proceeds from the sale of shares and reimbursed certain legal fees. The prospectus supplement expired in conjunction with the expiration of the corresponding registration statement on October 20, 2023. On June 20, 2023, we agreed with Cantor to indefinitely suspend sales under the ATM Offering, and on November 14, 2023, we agreed to terminate the Cantor Sales Agreement.
On December 6, 2023, we entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement (the Sales Agreement) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (HCW). Under the Sales Agreement, we may offer and sell our common stock, from time to time having an aggregate offering price of up to $2.75 million during the term of the Sales Agreement through or to HCW as sales agent or principal. We have filed a prospectus supplement relating to the offer and sale of the shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. The offering and sale of the shares will be made pursuant to the Company’s previously filed and effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-275099), which was initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 19, 2023 and declared effective on December 5, 2023. We have agreed to pay HCW a commission equal to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sales of shares and have agreed to provide HCW with customary indemnification and contribution rights.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we sold an aggregate of 1,156,877 and 106,241 shares of common stock under the ATM Offerings at then-market prices for total gross proceeds of $591,000 and $244,000, with associated issuance costs of $32,000 and $13,000, respectively.
| (8) | Share-Based Compensation |
The share-based compensation expense is recorded in research and development, and selling, general and administrative expenses based on the employee's or non-employee’s respective function. No share-based compensation was capitalized during the periods presented. Share-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was recorded as follows (in thousands):
| Three months ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 31, | ||
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Research and development | $115 | $139 |
| Selling, general and administrative | 89 | 139 |
| Total share-based compensation | $204 | $278 |
The following table summarizes the activity of stock options and related information:
| Number of shares | Weighted average exercise price | Weighted average remaining contractual term (years) | Aggregate intrinsic value (in thousands) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Balance, December 31, 2023 | 2,486,767 | $3.51 | 6.8 | $43 |
| Stock options forfeited | (47,657) | 2.26 | ||
| Balance, March 31, 2024 | 2,439,110 | $3.54 | 6.6 | $1 |
| Exercisable, March 31, 2024 | 1,601,718 | $4.49 | 5.6 | $— |
Unrecognized share-based compensation for employee and nonemployee options granted through March 31, 2024 is approximately $1.2 million to be recognized over a remaining weighted average service period of 2.1 years.
Share-Based Compensation (RSUs)
There wereno RSUs outstanding and hence there is no unrecognized share-based compensation at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
| (9) | Net Loss per Share |
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and fully vested restricted stock units. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method. Common stock equivalents are comprised of unvested restricted stock units, warrants to purchase common stock and options outstanding under the stock option plans. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding since the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive due to the net loss position.
The following outstanding common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive:
| March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Stock options to purchase common stock | 2,439,110 | 2,168,450 |
| Unvested restricted stock units | — | 2,734 |
| Common stock warrants | 3,134,917 | 2,424,724 |
| Total | 5,574,027 | 4,595,908 |
| (10) | Income Taxes |
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there wasno income tax expense or benefit for federal or state income taxes in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations due to our net loss and a full valuation allowance on the resulting deferred tax assets.
As of March 31, 2024, we retain a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in all jurisdictions. The realization of our deferred tax assets depends primarily on our ability to generate future taxable income which is uncertain. We do not believe that our deferred tax assets are realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis; therefore, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance.
| (11) | Related Party Transactions |
On April 9, 2020, we entered into a Litigation Funding Agreement (Funding Agreement) with BSLF, L.L.C. (Funder), an entity owned and controlled by Andrew Blank, Chair of BioCardia’s board of directors, for the purpose of funding our legal proceedings and any and all claims, actions and/or proceedings relating to or arising from the case captioned Boston Scientific Corp., et al., v. BioCardia Inc., Case No. 3:19-05645-VC, U.S.D.C., N. D. Cal (the Litigation). On April 12, 2021, all parties to the Litigation entered into a confidential settlement agreement and all claims were dismissed.
In March 2022, we entered into confidential settlement agreements with our litigation service providers and the Funder to terminate the Funding Agreement and conclude all remaining matters thereunder (the Litigation Funding Settlement). Under the terms of the Litigation Funding Settlement, litigation and corporate counsel provided credits and refunds of legal fees totaling $688,000, which offset the amounts owed to us by the Funder under the Funding Agreement, and provided up to $300,000 in future discounts on legal services. As a result of the Litigation Funding Settlement, we will remit the discounts, as received, to the Funder on a quarterly basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we received discounts totaling $110,000 and $33,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we recorded a related party payable for discounts owed to the Funder in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $42,000 and $71,000, respectively. With the accrual of $42,000 as of March 31, 2024, all of the future potential discounts have been collected on behalf of the Funder.
| (12) | Contingencies |
We may be subject to various claims, complaints, and legal actions that arise from time to time in the normal course of business. Management is not aware of any current legal or administrative proceedings that are likely to have an adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
