HeartBeam Inc

NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 –ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

HeartBeam, Inc. (“HeartBeam” or the “Company”) is a cardiac technology company focusing on developing and commercializing higher resolution ambulatory Electrocardiogram (“ECG”) solutions that enable the detection and monitoring of cardiac disease outside a healthcare facility setting. The Company’s ability to develop higher resolution ECG solutions is achieved through the development of the Company’s proprietary and patented Vector Electrocardiography (“VECG”) technology platform. HeartBeam’s VECG is capable of developing three-dimensional (3D) representations of cardiac electrical activity by displaying the spatial locations of ECG waveforms that demonstrated in early studies to deliver diagnostic capability equal or superior to traditional hospital-based ECG systems.

The Company has validated this technology and is seeking U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) clearance of its initial telehealth products. The Company filed a 510(k) submission in 2023 for its initial product, a patient-held VECG device. With a planned second submission, this product will become an ambulatory device, carried by patients, which can synthesize a 12L ECG for physician review.

The Company was incorporated in 2015 as a Delaware corporation. The Company operates asone segment and its operations are based in Santa Clara, California.

NOTE 2 –GOING CONCERN AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of early stage medical device companies, including dependence on key individuals and products, the inherent uncertainties with regulatory approvals, the difficulties inherent in the development of a commercial market, the potential need to obtain additional capital, competition from larger companies, other technology companies and other technologies.

The Company has incurred losses each year since inception and has experienced negative cash flows from operations in each year since inception. As of September 30, 2024 the Company has a cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $5.8 million. Based on its current business plan assumptions and expected cash burn rate, the Company believes that the existing cash is insufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Therefore, the Company’s continued operations will depend on its ability to raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships until sufficient revenue can be generated to achieve positive cash flow from operations. The Company expects no material commercial revenue in 2024.

The Company continues to maintain strong financial discipline as it achieves critical R&D, clinical and regulatory milestones in advance of commercialization. Management believes the continued achievement of these milestones will provide the Company the ability to raise additional capital. Management can provide no assurance that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, which would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial statements.

On May 2, 2024, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (“PV Sales Agreement”) with Public Ventures, LLC, as sales agent (“Public Ventures”), pursuant to which the Company may sell up to an aggregate of approximately $17 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. There were 50,000 shares issued under the At The Market (“ATM”) during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, there was approximately $16.9 million available for issuance under the ATM.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and in conformity with the instructions on Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results of operations for the periods presented. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period. The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 20, 2024 (“2023 Annual Report”).

CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash deposits. The Company maintains its cash in institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and has cash balances in accounts which exceed the federally insured limits as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company has made a deposit to the bank for their credit cards in the amount of $56,000 and $50,000 and is classified as restricted cash included in other assets as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based on amounts that differ from those estimates.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment, net, to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has capitalized tools amounting to $52,200, which is being depreciated based on useful life of 7 years. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was nominal. As of September 30, 2024, property and equipment, net represents machinery and equipment of $51,600 and construction-in-progress related to tooling development that has not been placed into service is amounting to $405,000 and $256,000 as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Construction-in-progress amounts are not subject to depreciation as such assets are not yet available for their intended use.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net loss per share excludes the effect of dilution and is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options and warrants to the extent dilutive. Basic net loss per share was the same as diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 as the inclusion of all potential common shares outstanding would have an anti-dilutive effect.

In accordance with ASC 260-10-45-13, exercisable penny options are included in the calculation of weighted average basic and diluted earnings per share. Penny options of 178,533 and 176,105 have been included in the calculation of weighted average basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

The following is a summary of awards outstanding as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, which are not included in the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares:
