Current report
Direct expenses for our vascular trauma, AV Access and PAD indications include costs related to our clinical trials, including fees paid to CROs, consultants, clinical sites and investigators. Costs related to development activities which broadly support multiple programs using our technology platform, including personnel, materials and supplies, external services costs, and other internal expenses, such as facilities and overhead costs, are not allocated to individual research and development programs. Other research and development expenses reported in the table below include direct costs not identifiable with a specific product candidate, including costs associated with our research and development platform used across programs, process development, manufacturing analytics and preclinical research and development for prospective product candidates and new technologies.
Current report
Total other expense, net was expense of $27.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to income of $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net expense of $31.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 primarily resulted from the remeasurement of the Contingent Earnout Liability as of June 30, 2024, which resulted in a non-cash loss of $25.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a $3.6 million non-cash gain for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Current report
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023
Current report
General and administrative expenses were $11.1 million and $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The slight decrease in general and administrative expenses during this period of $0.4 million, or 3%, was primarily driven by a $1.0 million decrease in payroll and personnel expenses, including a $1.3 million decrease in non-cash stock compensation expense, partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in salaries and benefits. The decrease in payroll and personnel expenses was partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in professional fees.

We are initially using our proprietary, scientific technology platform to engineer and manufacture HAVs. Our investigational HAVs are designed to be easily implanted into any patient without inducing a foreign body response or leading to immune rejection. We are developing a portfolio, or “cabinet”, of HAVs with varying diameters and lengths. The HAV cabinet would initially target the vascular repair, reconstruction and replacement market, including use in vascular trauma; arteriovenous (“AV”) access for hemodialysis and peripheral artery disease (“PAD”). We are also developing the HAV for coronary artery bypass grafting (“CABG”) and pediatric heart surgery. Over the longer term, we are developing our HAV for the delivery of cellular therapies, including pancreatic islet cell transplantation to treat Type 1 diabetes (our BioVascular Pancreas or “BVPTM”). We will continue to explore the application of our technology across a broad range of markets and indications, including the development of urinary conduit, trachea, esophagus and other novel cell delivery systems.

Previous wording
For the HAV, we believe there is substantial clinical demand for safe and effective vascular conduits to replace and repair blood vessels throughout the body. Vascular injuries resulting from trauma are common in civilian and military populations, frequently resulting in the loss of either life or limb. Existing treatment options in the vascular repair, reconstruction and replacement market include the use of autologous vessels and synthetic grafts, which we believe suffer from significant limitations. For example, the use of autologous veins to repair traumatic vascular injuries can lead to significant morbidity associated with the surgical wounds created for vein harvest and prolonged times to restore blood flow to injured limbs, leading to an increased risk of complications such as amputation and reperfusion injury. In addition, in many instances of vascular trauma the patient may not have adequate vein available, or the time between injury and treatment is too long, to make autologous graft repair feasible. Synthetic grafts are often contraindicated in the setting of vascular trauma due to higher infection risk that can lead to prolonged hospitalization and limb loss. Given the competitive advantages our HAVs are designed to have over existing vascular substitutes, we believe that HAVs have the potential to become the standard of care and lead to improved patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs.

We and our collaborators are currently conducting Phase 3 and Phase 2 trials of our 6 millimeter HAV across three therapeutic indications: vascular trauma, AV access for hemodialysis, and PAD. We were granted Fast Track designation by the FDA for our 6 millimeter HAV for use in AV access for hemodialysis in 2014. We also received the first Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (“RMAT”) designation from the FDA, for the creation of vascular access for performing hemodialysis, in March 2017. In May 2023, we were granted the RMAT designation for the HAV for urgent arterial repair following extremity vascular trauma. In addition, in 2018 our HAV product candidate was assigned a priority designation by the Secretary of Defense under Public Law 115-92, enacted to expedite the FDA’s review of products that are intended to diagnose, treat or prevent serious or life-threatening conditions facing American military personnel.

In February 2024, the FDA accepted the BLA filing and granted priority review and set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act date of August 10, 2024. On August 9, 2024, the FDA informed us that it required additional time to complete its review of the BLA for the vascular trauma indication.
Previous wording
In April 2023, we announced completion of enrollment of our V007 Phase 3 trial of the HAV for use in AV access for hemodialysis. Upon anticipated completion of our V007 Phase 3 trial in 2024, and dependent upon clinical results, we intend to submit a BLA supplement to the FDA for an indication in AV access for hemodialysis.
Current wording
In April 2023, we announced completion of enrollment of our V007 Phase 3 trial of the ATEV for use in AV access for hemodialysis. In July 2024, we announced positive topline results from our V007 Phase 3 trial in which the ATEV met the primary endpoints in the study. We expect to discuss a potential market authorization pathway for the ATEV with the FDA for an indication in AV access for hemodialysis.

We have generated no product revenue and incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations in each year since our inception in 2004. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $569.2 million and $537.3 million, respectively, and working capital of $103.8 million and $64.8 million, respectively. Our operating losses were approximately $26.6 million and $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Our operating losses were approximately $29.5 million and $56.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $26.7 million and $49.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
Previous wording
Net cash flows used in operating activities were $27.3 million and $18.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Substantially all of our operating losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general and administrative costs associated with our operations. We expect to incur substantial operating losses and negative cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future as we advance our product candidates.

Previous wording
As of March 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $115.5 million. We believe our cash and cash equivalents on hand will be sufficient to fund operations, including clinical trial expenses and capital expenditure requirements, for at least 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report. See Note 1 — Organization and Description of Business in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for additional information regarding this assessment.
Current wording
As of June 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $93.6 million. The extension of time required by the FDA to review our vascular trauma BLA, and the delay in potential approval, has delayed, among other items, our ability to draw an additional $40.0 million in Purchase Agreement proceeds. Accordingly, we do not believe our available cash and cash equivalents on hand will be sufficient to fund operations, including clinical trial expenses and capital expenditure requirements, for at least one year from the date of this Quarterly Report without achieving approval of the ATEV for vascular trauma and generating sufficient cash flows from commercial sales on a timely basis and/or obtaining additional capital. See Note 1 — Organization and Description of Business in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for additional information regarding this assessment.
Previous wording
Our need for additional capital will depend in part on the scope and costs of our development and commercial manufacturing activities. To date, we have not generated any revenue from the sale of commercialized products. Our ability to generate product revenue will depend on the successful development and eventual commercialization of one or more of our product candidates. Until such time, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the use of existing cash and cash equivalents, the sale of equity or debt, proceeds from the Purchase Agreement, borrowings under credit facilities, or through potential collaborations, other strategic transactions or government and other grants. Adequate capital may not be available to us when needed or on acceptable terms. If we are unable to raise capital, we could be forced to delay, reduce, suspend or cease our research and development programs or any future commercialization efforts, which would have a negative impact on our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. See “Risk Factors” for additional information.

The majority of our research and development resources are currently focused on our Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials for our 6 millimeter HAV and other work needed to obtain marketing approval for our 6 millimeter HAV for use for vascular repair, reconstruction and replacement, including indications in vascular trauma and AV access in hemodialysis in the United States. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant expenses in connection with these and our other clinical development efforts, including expenses related to regulatory filings, trial enrollment and conduct, data analysis, patient follow up and study report generation for our Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials. We do not allocate all of our costs by each research and development program for which we are developing our cabinet of HAVs, as a significant amount of our development activities broadly support multiple programs that use our technology platform. We plan to further increase our research and development expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue the development of our proprietary scientific technology platform and our novel manufacturing paradigm.

The following table discloses the breakdown of research and development expenses for the periods indicated:
Previous wording
Research and development expenses were $21.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, representing an increase of $4.0 million, or 23%, from $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by expenses incurred to support our expanded research and development initiatives, including increased product manufacturing and development and clinical development of the HAV for use in AV access for hemodialysis. Expense increases were primarily comprised of a $3.3 million increase in the purchase of materials and supplies and $1.5 million in additional payroll and personnel expenses, partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease in external services.
Current wording
Research and development expenses were $23.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, representing an increase of $3.2 million, or 16%, from $20.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by expenses incurred to support our expanded research and development initiatives, including increased product manufacturing and development and support of the FDA review of the BLA in vascular trauma. Expense increases were primarily comprised of a $3.0 million increase in the purchase of materials and supplies and $1.5 million in additional payroll and personnel expenses.
Previous wording
General and administrative expenses were $5.3 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The slight increase in general and administrative expenses during this period of $0.1 million, or 2%, was primarily driven by a $0.4 million increase in professional fees and a $0.2 million increase in external services, partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in payroll and personnel expenses and a $0.1 million decrease in other general and administrative expenses.
Current wording
General and administrative expenses were $5.7 million and $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in general and administrative expenses during this period of $0.4 million, or 7%, was primarily driven by a $0.5 million decrease in payroll and personnel expenses, including a $0.7 million decrease in non-cash stock compensation expense, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in salaries and benefits.
Previous wording
Total other expense, net was $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $14.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in net expense of $9.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily resulted from a $9.6 million reduction in the non-cash loss resulting from the remeasurement of the Contingent Earnout Liability during each period.
Current wording
Total other income (expense), net was expense of $32.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to expense of $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net expense of $22.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily resulted from a $19.6 million increase in the non-cash loss resulting from the remeasurement of the Contingent Earnout Liability during each period.

We have historically financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities and convertible debt, including pursuant to the Offering, proceeds from the Merger and related PIPE Financing, borrowings under loan facilities, the Purchase Agreement, and, to a lesser extent, through grants from governmental and other agencies. Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $569.2 million and $537.3 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had working capital of $103.8 million and $64.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $115.5 million and $80.4 million, respectively. We believe our cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund operations, including clinical trial expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report. See Note 1 — Organization and Description of Business to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for additional information regarding our assessment. As noted in Note 1, if we are not successful in executing a leasehold mortgage over our headquarters by June 7, 2024 and are required to fund a restricted account of $54.0 million or are required to repurchase the Revenue Interests, our available cash to fund operations going forward would be limited, and in such an event there could be substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of the quarter ending June 30, 2024 unless we raise additional capital and/or obtain approval of the BLA, resulting in an assessment at that time that cash, additional funding commitments, and forecasted revenues are adequate to fund ongoing operations. We believe that our longer-term working capital, planned research and development, capital expenditures and other general corporate funding requirements may be satisfied through the sale of equity, debt, borrowings under credit facilities or through potential collaborations with other companies, other strategic transactions or government or other grants. Our liquidity plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in the sections entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report. Adequate capital may not be available to us when needed or on acceptable terms. If we are unable to raise capital, we could be forced to delay, reduce, suspend or cease our research and development programs or any future commercialization efforts, which would have a negative impact on our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.
Current wording
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had working capital of $78.4 million and $64.8 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $93.6 million and $80.4 million, respectively. We are required to evaluate whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the issuance date of our financial statements. By August 17, 2024, we are required to fund the restricted cash account, in accordance with our amended Purchase Agreement, of which $50.0 million will not be subject to our unilateral control. Based on current plans and assumptions, which excludes this $50.0 million of cash and the potential approval of the BLA from our forecasted liquidity, we will not have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund our operations beyond one year from the issuance of these financial statements if we are unable to achieve approval of the ATEV and generate sufficient cash flows from commercial sales on a timely basis and/or obtain additional capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We will, over the course of the next year, require additional financing to continue our operations. Adequate additional capital may not be available to us when needed or on acceptable terms. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital when required, we may be required to reduce or discontinue our operations, sell assets, or cease all operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities or any other adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. See Note 1 — Organization and Description of Business to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for additional information regarding our assessment. We believe that our longer-term working capital, planned research and development, capital expenditures and other general corporate funding requirements may be satisfied through the sale of equity, debt, borrowings under credit facilities or through potential collaborations with other companies, other strategic transactions or government or other grants.

Previous wording
On February 18, 2024, we agreed with the Purchasers and the Agent, to waive certain breaches related to, and extend the deadline for certain post-closing obligations under, the Purchase Agreement, including the requirement for a leasehold mortgage over our headquarters. Giving effect to the extension and waiver, we were obligated to deliver by no later than April 30, 2024 (or such later date as the Agent may agree in its sole discretion), an executed leasehold mortgage (or alternative documentation satisfactory to the Agent in its sole discretion) over our headquarters. On May 8, 2024, we agreed with the Purchasers and the Agent to waive such breaches, for so long as, among other requirements, we (i) deliver by no later than June 7, 2024 a landlord’s consent and waiver with respect to the Company’s headquarters and (ii) funds no later than August 17, 2024 an account in an amount of $54.0 million, over which the Agent will have certain consent and other rights. To the extent we are able to deliver a leasehold mortgage over our headquarters by June 7, 2024, the preceding requirements will not apply. If we are not successful in meeting the Agent’s deadlines in executing either a leasehold mortgage or a landlord consent and waiver or if we are unable to fund the required amount, the Purchasers have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement and to require Global to repurchase the Revenue Interests.

On May 8, 2024, we reached an agreement with the Purchasers to amend the Purchase Agreement to remove requirements related to the leasehold mortgage. In exchange for the removal of this requirement, we agreed to fund, no later than August 17, 2024, an account in the amount of $54.0 million, over which the Agent will have certain consent and other rights to $50.0 million of the funds. As of the date of this filing, we have not funded the required amount but intend to do so prior to the August 17, 2024 deadline.
