We believe that our flagship product, the EsoGuard Esophageal DNA Test, performed on samples collected with the EsoCheck Esophageal Cell Collection Device, constitutes the first and only commercially available diagnostic test capable of serving as a widespread tool for the early detection of esophageal precancer, including Barrett’s Esophagus (“BE”), in at-risk patients. Early detection of esophageal precancer allows patients to undergo appropriate monitoring and treatment, as indicated by clinical practice guidelines, in an effort to prevent progression to esophageal cancer. EsoGuard is a bisulfite-converted targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) DNA assay performed on surface esophageal cells collected with EsoCheck. It quantifies methylation at 31 sites on two genes, Vimentin (VIM) and Cyclin A1 (CCNA1). The assay has been evaluated in multiple studies, demonstrating sensitivity of ~90% for detecting disease along the full esophageal precancer to cancer spectrum, with a negative predictive value (NPV) of ~99%. Sensitivity and NPV remain very high even for detecting early precancer, which is unprecedented for a molecular diagnostic test . EsoCheck is an FDA 510(k) and CE Mark cleared noninvasive swallowable balloon capsule catheter device capable of sampling surface esophageal cells in a less than two minute office procedure. It consists of a vitamin pill-sized rigid plastic capsule tethered to a thin silicone catheter from which a soft silicone balloon with textured ridges emerges to gently swab surface esophageal cells. When vacuum suction is applied, the balloon and sampled cells are pulled into the capsule, protecting them from contamination and dilution by cells outside of the targeted region during device withdrawal. We believe this proprietary Collect+Protect™ technology makes EsoCheck the only noninvasive esophageal cell collection device capable of such anatomically targeted and protected sampling. EsoGuard and EsoCheck are based on patented technology licensed by Lucid from Case Western Reserve University (“CWRU”). EsoGuard and EsoCheck have been developed to provide an accurate, non-invasive, patient-friendly test for the early detection of EAC and BE, including dysplastic BE and related precursors to EAC in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (“GERD”), commonly known as chronic heartburn, acid reflux, or just reflux. Recent Developments Medicare Coverage In November 2024, we submitted to MolDx our complete clinical evidence package in support of a request for reconsideration of the non-coverage language in the LCD to secure Medicare coverage for EsoGuard. The EsoGuard clinical evidence package included six new peer-reviewed publications: three clinical validation studies (two in the intended use population, one case control), two clinical utility studies, and one analytical validation study. The current LCD provides clear coverage criteria consistent with the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) guidelines for esophageal precancer testing. The package was submitted as part of a request for reconsideration of the non-coverage language in the LCD to secure Medicare coverage for EsoGuard. As part of the LCD reconsideration process, MolDX-participating Medicare Administrative Contractors are scheduled to convene a Contractor Advisory Committee (CAC) Meeting regarding the LCD on September 4, 2025. Clinical Study Publications In April 2025, the Company’s fifth peer-reviewed clinical utility manuscript, “ Enhancing the Diagnostic Yield of EGD for Diagnosis of Barrett’s Esophagus Through Methylated DNA Biomarker Triage ,” was published in Gastroenterology & Hepatology . This manuscript presents clinical utility data from the ENVET-BE study, which is the second to assess the clinical utility of EsoGuard in a real-world screening population. The ENVET-BE study analyzed 209 EsoGuard-positive patients who underwent biomarker triage and confirmatory EGD in the 2023 calendar year, to test the hypothesis that EGDs performed on patients who first triage positive on EsoGuard have higher diagnostic yield than screening EGDs alone. The yield of screening EGDs was estimated by literature-established disease prevalence (10.6%). A 2.4-fold increase in BE detection compared with the performance goal was observed for the full study population. In the cohort meeting American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) criteria for BE screening, the diagnostic yield was increased by 2.7-fold. On August 1, 2025, the American Journal of Gastroenterology e-published (ahead of printing) the manuscript “Nonendoscopic Detection of Barrett’s Esophagus in Patients Without GERD Symptoms.” This investigator-initiated pilot study evaluated EsoGuard in 120 patients without GERD symptoms, but who met American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) BE screening criteria. Of 34 EsoGuard-positive patients, 27 underwent EGD, confirming BE in 9 cases (PPV: 33%). Of 86 EsoGuard-negative patients, 22 volunteered for EGD, with zero BE cases (NPV: 100%). This is the first study to assess EsoGuard in this expanded risk group and informed the design of a larger, ongoing NIH R01-funded study. ATM Facility On May 30, 2025, the Company entered into an “at-the-market offering” (“ATM”) for up to $25.0 million of its common stock that may be offered and sold under a Controlled Equity Offering Agreement between the Company and Maxim Group LLC. 23 Recent Developments - continued April 2025 Confidentially Marketed Public Offering On April 11, 2025, the Company closed on the sale of 14,375,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.20 per share (the “April 2025 Offering”). The net proceeds of the April 2025 Offering, after deducting the estimated placement agent’s fees and other expenses of $1.2 million, was approximately $16.1 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the April 2025 Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. March 2025 Registered Direct Offering On March 5, 2025, the Company closed on the sale of 13,939,330 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.10 per share (the “Offering”). The net proceeds of the Offering, after deducting the estimated placement agent’s fees and other expenses of $0.4 million, was approximately $14.9 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Russell 2000® and 3000® Indexes On June 27, 2025, the Company was added to the Russell 2000® Index and the Russell 3000® Index, following the 2025 annual reconstitution by FTSE Russell. Hoag Comprehensive Esophageal Precancer Testing Program Using EsoGuard On June 18, 2025, the Company announced that Hoag, a nationally recognized regional healthcare delivery network, launched a comprehensive, integrated esophageal precancer testing program using the Company’s EsoGuard® Esophageal DNA Test. The Company will partner with Hoag to offer EsoGuard testing across its digestive health, primary care, and concierge medicine programs. NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines Update In March 2025, we announced that a recent update to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN) Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) focused on Esophageal and Esophagogastric Junction Cancers (Version 1.2025) has added a new section on BE screening. The NCCN Guidelines® now reference professional society guidelines on BE screening, including the most recent ACG clinical guideline discussed above, which recommends non-endoscopic biomarker testing, such as EsoGuard performed on samples collected with EsoCheck, as an acceptable alternative to invasive upper endoscopy to detect esophageal precancer. Highmark Reimbursement Approval On March 13, 2025, the Company announced that Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, an independent licensee of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, has issued a positive coverage policy for non-invasive screening of esophageal precancer and cancer in New York state. The new policy, which became effective as of May 26, 2025, covers EsoGuard in patients who meet established criteria for esophageal precancer testing consistent with professional society guidelines. CWRU NIH Grant Related to EsoGuard and EsoCheck On February 27, 2025, the Company announced that principal investigators from Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and University Hospitals (UH), were awarded an $8 million National Institutes of Health (NIH) R01 grant to conduct a five-year clinical study designed to evaluate esophageal precancer detection using EsoCheck and EsoGuard among at-risk individuals without symptoms of chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The study, “A Clinical Trial of Cancer Prevention by Biomarker Based Detections of Barrett’s Esophagus and Its Progression,” aims to evaluate the effectiveness of EsoCheck and EsoGuard in detecting esophageal precancer (Barrett’s Esophagus or BE) to prevent esophageal cancer (EAC) within a non-GERD at-risk population. To accomplish this aim, 800 patients without GERD symptoms who meet the American Gastroenterological Association’s (AGA) risk criteria for screening will be recruited across five participating research centers: University Hospitals, University of Colorado, Johns Hopkins University, University of North Carolina, and Cleveland Clinic. 24 Results of Operations Overview Revenue The Company recognized revenue resulting from the delivery of patient EsoGuard test results when the Company considered the collection of such consideration to be probable to the extent that it is unconstrained. Cost of revenue Cost of revenues recognized from the delivery of patient EsoGuard test results includes costs related to EsoCheck device usage, shipment of test collection kits, royalties and the cost of services to process tests and provide results to physicians. We incur expenses for tests in the period in which the activities occur, therefore, gross margin as a percentage of revenue may vary from quarter to quarter due to costs being incurred in one period that relate to revenues recognized in a later period. We expect that the gross margin for our services will continue to fluctuate and be affected by EsoGuard test volume, our operating efficiencies, patient compliance rates, payer mix, the levels of reimbursement, and payment patterns of payers and patients. Sales and marketing expenses Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for employees engaged in sales, sales support and marketing activities, as well as the portion of the MSA Fee (as defined in Note 5, Related Party Transactions , to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) allocated to sales and marketing expenses, which are principally costs related to PAVmed employees who are performing services for the Company. We anticipate our sales and marketing expenses will increase in the future, to the extent we expand our commercial sales and marketing operations as resources permit and insurance reimbursement coverage for our EsoGuard test expands. General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional fees for accounting, tax, audit and legal services (including those fees incurred as a result of our being a public company), consulting fees, employees costs involved in third-party payor reimbursement contract negotiations and consulting fees, expenses associated with obtaining and maintaining patents within our intellectual property portfolio, and certain employee costs, along with the portion of the MSA Fee allocated to general and administrative expenses. We anticipate our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future to the extent our business operations grow. Furthermore, we anticipate continued expenses related to being a public company, including fees and expenses for audit, legal, regulatory, tax-related services, insurance premiums and investor relations costs associated with maintaining compliance as a public company. Research and development expenses Research and development expenses are recognized in the period they are incurred and consist principally of internal and external expenses incurred for the development of our technologies and conducting clinical trials, including: ● costs associated with submission of regulatory filings; ● cost of laboratory supplies and acquiring, developing, and manufacturing preclinical prototypes; and ● the portion of the MSA Fee allocated to research and development. We plan to incur research and development expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue the development of our existing products as well as new innovations. Our research and development activities, including our clinical trials, are focused principally on facilitating insurer reimbursement, encouraging physician adoption and developing product improvements or extending the utility of the lead products in our pipeline, including EsoCheck and EsoGuard. Other Income and Expense, net Other income and expense, net, consists principally of changes in fair value of our convertible note and losses on extinguishment of debt upon repayment of such convertible note. Presentation of Dollar Amounts All dollar amounts in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are presented as dollars in millions, except for share and per share amounts. 25 Results of Operations - continued The three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 Revenue In the three months ended June 30, 2025, revenue was $1.2 million as compared to $1.0 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The $0.2 million increase principally relates to the increase in the consideration received for the performance of the EsoGuard Esophageal DNA Tests. Cost of revenue In the three months ended June 30, 2025, the cost of revenue remained relatively level at approximately $1.6 million, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Sales and marketing expenses In the three months ended June 30, 2025, sales and marketing costs were approximately $4.0 million as compared to $4.2 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net decrease of $0.2 million was principally related to a decrease in compensation costs. General and administrative expenses In the three months ended June 30, 2025, general and administrative costs were approximately $5.6 million as compared to $4.9 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net increase of $0.7 million was principally related to: ● approximately $0.4 million increase related to the amended MSA with PAVmed due to the growth and expansion of our business and the services incurred through PAVmed; and ● approximately $0.3 million increase in stock-based compensation related costs. Research and development expenses In the three months ended June 30, 2025, research and development costs were approximately $1.3 million, compared to $1.4 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net decrease of $0.1 million was principally related to a decrease in development costs, particularly in clinical trial activities and outside professional and consulting fees. Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets In the three months ended June 30, 2025, the amortization of acquired intangible assets remained relatively level at approximately $0.1 million, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Other Income and Expense Change in fair value of convertible debt In the three months ended June 30, 2025, the change in the fair value of our convertible notes was approximately $6.8 million of income, related to the 2024 Senior Convertible Notes (as defined in Note 10, Debt , to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). The 2024 Senior Convertible Notes was initially measured at the notes’ issue-date estimated fair value and is subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value as of each reporting period date. 26 Results of Operations - continued The three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to three months ended June 30, 2024 - continued Loss on Debt Extinguishment The Company did not incur debt extinguishment loss in the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the three months ended June 30, 2024, a debt extinguishment loss in the aggregate of approximately $0.5 million was recognized in connection with our March 2023 Senior Convertible Note as discussed below. ● In the three months ended June 30, 2024, approximately $1.1 million of principal repayments along with approximately $0.2 million of interest expense thereon, were settled through the issuance of 2,117,883 shares of common stock of the Company, with such shares having a fair value of approximately $1.9 million (with such fair value measured as the quoted closing price of the common stock of the Company on the respective conversion date). The conversions resulted in a debt extinguishment loss of $0.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. See Note 10 , Debt , to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, for additional information with respect to the 2024 Senior Convertible Notes. The six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2024 Revenue In the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenue remained relatively level at $2.0 million, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Cost of revenue In the six months ended June 30, 2025, the cost of revenue was approximately $3.1 million as compared to $3.3 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net decrease of $0.2 million was principally related to: ● approximately $0.4 million decrease in the manufacturing costs associated with the EsoCheck devices and EsoGuard Esophageal DNA Tests; and ● approximately $0.2 million increase in compensation related costs. Sales and marketing expenses In the six months ended June 30, 2025, sales and marketing costs were approximately $8.1 million as compared to $8.4 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net decrease of $0.3 million was principally related to: ● approximately $0.2 million decrease in stock-based compensation; and ● approximately $0.1 million decrease related to third-party facility related expenses. General and administrative expenses In the six months ended June 30, 2025, general and administrative costs were approximately $11.8 million as compared to $8.9 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net increase of $2.9 million was principally related to: ● approximately $1.6 million increase related to third-party professional fees, primarily due to financing related costs; ● approximately $0.9 million increase related to the amended MSA with PAVmed due to the growth and expansion of our business and the services incurred through PAVmed; and ● approximately $0.4 million increase in stock-based compensation costs. Research and development expenses In the six months ended June 30, 2025, research and development costs were approximately $2.7 million, compared to $2.9 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The net decrease of $0.2 million was principally related to: ● approximately $0.3 million increase related to the amended MSA with PAVmed due to the growth and expansion of our business and the services incurred through PAVmed; ● approximately $0.3 million decrease in development costs, particularly in clinical trial activities; and ● approximately $0.2 million decrease in stock-based compensation. 27 Results of Operations - continued The six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2024 - continued Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets The amortization of acquired intangible assets was approximately $0.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $0.5 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease of $0.3 million in the current period was due to certain acquired intangible assets being fully amortized in February 2024. Other Income and Expense Change in fair value of convertible debt In the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the change in the fair value of our convertible note was approximately $7.6 million of expense and $0.9 million of income, respectively, related to the 2024 Convertible Notes and the March 2023 Senior Convertible Note (as defined in Note 10 , Debt , to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). The 2024 Convertible Notes and March 2023 Senior Convertible Note were initially measured at their respective issue date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value as of each reporting period date. The Company initially recognized a $0.8 million fair value remeasurement as a non-cash expense on the issue date. Loss on Debt Extinguishment The Company did not incur debt extinguishment loss in the six months ended June 30, 2025. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, a debt extinguishment loss in the aggregate of approximately $0.7 million was recognized in connection with our March 2023 Senior Convertible Note as discussed below. ● In the six months ended June 30, 2024, approximately $1.2 million of principal repayments along with approximately $0.7 million of interest expense thereon, were settled through the issuance of 2,661,181 shares of common stock of the Company, with such shares having a fair value of approximately $2.5 million (with such fair value measured as the quoted closing price of the common stock of the Company on the respective conversion date). The conversions resulted in a debt extinguishment loss of $0.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. See Note 10 , Debt , to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, for additional information with respect to the 2024 Convertible Notes. Deemed Dividend on Series A and Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock Exchange Offer The fair value of the consideration given in the form of the issue of 31,790 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, with such fair value recognized as the carrying value of such issued shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, as compared to the carrying value of the extinguished Series A and Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (carrying value of $24.3 million), resulting in an excess of fair value of $7.5 million recognized as a deemed dividend charged to accumulated deficit in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet on March 13, 2024, with such deemed dividend included as a component of net loss attributable to common stockholders, summarized as follows: Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Issuance and Series A/A-1 Exchange Offer ($ in thousands) March 13, 2024 Fair Value - 31,790 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued in exchange for Series A and Series A-1 Preferred Stock $ 31,790 Less: Carrying value related to Series A and Series A-1 Preferred Stock Exchanged for Series B Preferred Stock (of 24,295 shares) (24,294 ) Deemed Dividend Charged to Accumulated Deficit $ 7,496 28 Liquidity and Capital Resources Our current operational activities are principally focused on the commercialization of EsoGuard. We are pursuing commercialization across multiple sales channels, including: the communication to and education of medical practitioners and clinicians regarding EsoGuard; the establishment of Lucid Test Centers for the collection of cell samples using EsoCheck; use of our mobile testing unit; ongoing #CheckYourFoodTube testing days; and our direct contracting strategic initiative (including in the concierge medicine and employer markets sectors). Additionally, we are developing expanded clinical evidence to support insurance reimbursement adoption by government and private insurers. Further, as resources permit, the Company also intends to pursue development of other products and services. Our ability to generate revenue depends upon our ability to successfully advance the commercialization of EsoGuard, including significantly expanding insurance reimbursement coverage. There are no assurances, however, we will be able to obtain an adequate level of financial resources required for the long-term commercialization and development of our products and services. We are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties typically faced by medical device and diagnostic companies that devote substantially all of their efforts to the commercialization of their initial products and services. We experienced a net loss of approximately $31.3 million and used approximately $23.0 million of cash in operations during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Financing activities provided $31.9 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2025. We ended the quarter with cash on-hand of $31.1 million as of June 30, 2025. We expect to continue to experience recurring losses and negative cash flow from operations, and will continue to fund our operations with debt and/or equity financing transactions, which in accordance with management’s plans may include conversions of our existing debt to equity and refinancing our existing debt obligations to extend the maturity date. The Company’s ability to continue operations 12 months beyond the issuance of the financial statements will depend upon generating substantial revenue that is conditioned on obtaining positive third-party reimbursement coverage for its EsoGuard Esophageal DNA Test from both government and private health insurance providers, increasing revenue through contracting directly with self-insured employers, and upon raising additional capital through various potential sources including equity and/or debt financings or refinancing existing debt obligations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. 29 Liquidity and Capital Resources - continued March 2025 Registered Direct Offering On March 5, 2025, the Company closed on the sale of 13,939,330 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.10 per share (the “Offering”). The net proceeds of the Offering, after deducting the estimated placement agent’s fees and other expenses of $0.4 million, was approximately $14.9 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. April 2025 Confidentially Marketed Public Offering On April 11, 2025, the Company closed on the sale of 14,375,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $1.20 per share (the “April 2025 Offering”). The net proceeds of the April 2025 Offering, after deducting the estimated placement agent’s fees and other expenses of $1.1 million, was approximately $16.2 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the April 2025 Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. ATM Facility On May 30, 2025, the Company entered into an “at-the-market offering” (“ATM”) for up to $25.0 million of its common stock that may be offered and sold under a Controlled Equity Offering Agreement between the Company and Maxim Group LLC. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold 215,421 shares through its at-the-market equity facility for net proceeds of approximately $0.3 million, after payment of 3% commissions. Critical Accounting Estimates The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reporting in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgements. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be appropriate under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our critical accounting estimates are as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2025. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
