BioCardia, Inc.

Current report

If we do not regain compliance with or continue to satisfy the Nasdaq continued listing requirements, our securities could be delisted from the Nasdaq.

Current report

The listing of our securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq) is contingent on our compliance with the Nasdaq’s conditions for continued listing. We are currently not in compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements. On April 1, 2025 we received written notice from the Nasdaq (the Notice) which provided that, based on the Company’s stockholders’ equity of $837,000 as of December 31, 2024, we are no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement of $2.5 million for continued listing on the Nasdaq under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). We have until May 16, 2025 to provide Nasdaq with a plan to regain compliance with the foregoing listing requirement. If our plan to regain compliance is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from April 1, 2025 for us to provide evidence of compliance. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock and the common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol “BCDA.”

Current report

We intend to submit a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. In determining whether to accept the plan, Nasdaq will consider such things as the likelihood that the plan will result in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing criteria, our past compliance history, the reasons for our current non-compliance, other corporate events that may occur within Nasdaq’s review period, our overall financial condition and public disclosures. If the Nasdaq does not accept our plan, we may request a hearing, at which hearing we would present its plan to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

Previous report

We have a history of operating losses, and we may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability.

Previous report

We are a clinical-stage regenerative medicine company and we have not yet generated a profit. We have incurred net losses during each of our fiscal years since our inception. Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $11.6 million and our accumulated deficit totaled $152.2 million as of December 31, 2023. We do not know whether or when we will become profitable, if ever. We currently expect operating losses and negative cash flows to continue for at least the next several years.

Previous report

To date, our only approved or cleared products are our Morph universal deflectable guide catheters and Morph AccessPro sheaths, in the United States and Europe; our AVANCE™ steerable introducer and our Morph DNA deflectable guides in the United States only. Our limited commercialization experience and number of approved products makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and predict our future prospects. Our short commercialization experience and limited number of approved products also makes it difficult for us to forecast our future financial performance and growth and such forecasts are limited and subject to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to successfully complete our Phase III pivotal trials in heart failure and chronic myocardial ischemia and obtain FDA approval for, and then successfully commercialize, the CardiAMP Cell Therapy System.

Previous report

Our ability to generate sufficient revenue to achieve profitability depends on our ability, either alone or with strategic collaboration partners, to successfully complete the development of, and obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to commercialize our therapeutic candidates. We do not anticipate generating revenues from sales of our cell therapy systems or any other biotherapeutic candidates within the next few years, and we may never generate sales of these products.

Previous report

We anticipate that our expenses will increase in the future as we continue to incur significant research and development and other expenses related to our ongoing operations, seek regulatory approvals for our therapeutic candidates, scale-up manufacturing capabilities and hire additional personnel to support the development of our therapeutic candidates and commercialization efforts. Biopharmaceutical product development is a highly speculative undertaking and involves a substantial degree of risk. To achieve and maintain profitability, we must successfully develop our therapeutic candidates, obtain regulatory approvals and manufacture, market and sell those products for which we obtain regulatory approvals. If we obtain regulatory approval to market a product candidate, our future revenue will depend upon the size of any markets in which our therapeutic candidates may receive approval, and our ability to achieve sufficient market acceptance, pricing, reimbursement from third-party payors and adequate market share for our therapeutic candidates in those markets. We may not succeed in these activities, and we may never generate revenue from product sales that is significant enough to achieve profitability. Our failure to become or remain profitable would depress our market value and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, discover or develop other product candidates or continue our operations. A decline in the value of our company could cause you to lose part or all of your investment.

Previous report

Our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 have been prepared on the basis that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred significant losses since our inception and we expect that we will continue to incur losses as we aim to successfully execute our business plan and will be dependent on additional public or private financings, collaborations or licensing arrangements with strategic partners, or additional credit lines or other debt financing sources to fund continuing operations. Absent additional funding, management believes cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.9 million as of September 30, 2024 are not sufficient to fund our planned expenditures and meet our obligations through the second quarter of 2025. As noted below, we may need to obtain additional funding from equity or debt financings, which may be highly dilutive to our existing stockholders and may require us to agree to burdensome covenants, grant security interests in our assets, enter into collaboration and licensing arrangements that require us to relinquish commercial rights, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable. For example, in September 2024, we completed the Registered Offering, pursuant to which we issued 2,400,000 shares of common stock, including the shares issued upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants, and common warrants to purchase 2,400,000 shares of common stock. No assurance can be given at this time as to whether we will be able to achieve our fundraising objectives, regardless of the terms. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to reduce operating expenses, delay or reduce the scope of its product development programs, obtain funds through arrangements with others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies or products that the Company would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize itself, or cease operations.
