Current report

In May 2024, we began contract negotiations with a third-party (the “Buyer”) to sell certain products within our advanced rehabilitation business, including the L100, L300 Go, L360, H200, Vector Gait & Safety System and BITS-Bioness Integrated Therapy System (collectively, the “Advanced Rehabilitation Business”). The Advanced Rehabilitation Business is considered non-core and will require additional research and development expenditures to achieve its next stage of growth. The potential divestiture of the Advanced Rehabilitation Business is expected to simplify our business structure and improve liquidity, as the proceeds, net of transactional fees, are required to be used to reduce long-term debt obligations. Contract negotiations are ongoing with the Buyer and as of the end of the second quarter 2024, we had incurred $2,500 in transactional fees resulting from the potential divestiture of the Advanced Rehabilitation Business.

Current report

The Company evaluated the Advanced Rehabilitation Business for impairment due to its potential divestiture and, as a result of this evaluation, recorded a $31,870 impairment under the U.S. reporting segment within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 to reduce the intangible assets of the Advanced Rehabilitation Business to reflect their respective fair values less any costs to sell. The fair value of its intangibles was based on the consideration offered for the Advanced Rehabilitation Business.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status

Current report

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” pursuant to the provisions of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS ACT”). An emerging growth company can delay its adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has chosen to “opt out” of such extended transition periods, and as a result, the Company plans to comply with any new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which non-emerging growth companies must adopt such standards. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that the decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

Current report

The Company is also considered a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), which was determined as of the last day of the Company’s second fiscal quarter of 2023. The Company will continue to be categorized as a smaller reporting company-accelerated filer until the Company’s public float reaches a certain threshold. The Company may rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies.

We present Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, because we believe it is a useful indicator that management uses as a measure of operating performance as well as for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections.

Costs related to this shareholder litigation are unrelated to our ongoing operations and were nominal in prior periods. Adjusted EBITDA by segment is comprised of net sales and costs directly attributable to a segment, as well as an allocation of corporate overhead costs primarily based on a ratio of net sales by segment to total consolidated net sales.
