Overview
We
are a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of thin film electrode technology for continuous electroencephalogram
(“cEEG”) and stereoelectrocencephalography (“sEEG”), spinal cord stimulation, brain stimulation, drug delivery
and ablation solutions for patients suffering from epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due
to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders. We are also developing the capability to use our sEEG electrode technology
to deliver drugs or gene therapy while being able to record brain activity before, during, and after delivery. Additionally, we are investigating
the potential applications of our technology associated with artificial intelligence.
We
have received 510(k) clearance for three of our devices from the FDA, including: (i) our Evo cortical electrode technology for recording,
monitoring, and stimulating brain tissue for up to 30 days, (ii) our Evo sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days)
use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the
subsurface level of the brain, and (iii) our OneRF ablation system for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional
neurosurgical procedures. Our other products are still under development. We distribute each of these three devices with Zimmer Biomet.
We
have incurred mostly losses since inception. As of June 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $77.0 million, primarily as a result
of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development, selling, general and administrative expenses associated with our
operations and interest expense, fair value adjustments and loss on extinguishments related to our debt, offset in part by license and
product revenues.
Prior
to FDA clearance of certain of our products, our main sources of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were proceeds from
the issuances of notes, common stock, warrants and unsecured loans. See “ Liquidity and Capital Resources—Capital Resources ”
below. While we have begun to generate revenue from the sale of products based on our cEEG and sEEG technology, and OneRF System,
and through milestone and other payments from our current collaboration and distribution arrangement with Zimmer, we expect to continue
to incur significant expenses and may incur increasing operating and net losses for the foreseeable future until we generate a higher
level of revenue from commercial sales.

Submission for Trigeminal Facial Pain
On
April 22, 2025, we filed a 510(k) submission to the FDA for our OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System to treat facial pain.
April
2025 Financing
On
April 4, 2025, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co.
Inc. as underwriter (the “Underwriter”), relating to the issuance and sale of 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s common
stock, at a price to the public of $0.50 per share (the “April 2025 Financing”). In addition, under the terms of the Underwriting
Agreement, we granted the Underwriter an option, exercisable for 45 days, to purchase up to an additional 2,400,000 shares of common
stock on the same terms as the offering, which was exercised in full. Net proceeds to the Company were approximately $8.2 million.
Zimmer
Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement
On
October 25, 2024, we entered into the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Zimmer, Inc.
(“Zimmer”) pursuant to which we granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute our OneRF Ablation System for
an upfront payment of $3.0 million, with eligibility for an additional $1.0 million payment from Zimmer upon achievement of certain specified
net sales milestones.
We
previously entered into an Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated July 20, 2020 with Zimmer, related to the sEEG and
Strip/Grid Product Systems, which was subsequently amended pursuant to the terms and conditions of a letter agreement dated January 6,
2021, a Second Amendment to Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated June 28, 2022, and a Third Amendment to Exclusive
Development and Distribution Agreement dated August 2, 2022 (collectively, the “EDDA”).The EDDAs executed prior to the Amendment
granted Zimmer exclusive global rights to distribute the Strip/Grid Products and the Electrode Cable Assembly Products. Additionally,
we granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute certain sEEG Products developed by the Company and together with the
Strip/Grid Products and Electrode Cable Assembly Products, the “Products”. In addition, under the prior EDDAs, we agreed
to collaborate with respect to development activities through a joint development committee composed of an equal number of representatives
of Zimmer and the Company.
Under
the Amendment, Zimmer paid us $3.0 million for an exclusive RF Distribution License (the “RF Distribution License” and “License”)
for commercialization of its OneRF™ product. In addition, we are eligible to receive a future milestone payment of $1.0 million
upon reaching a one-time sales volume threshold.
The
revised term under the Amendment (the “Term”) began on the Effective Date and will remain in effect until October 31, 2034.
Upon the expiration of the Term, it may be renewed upon the mutual written of the Parties. The Amended and Restated Exclusive Development
and Distribution Agreement may be terminated before the expiration of the Term only by the Parties in accordance with certain terms under
the Amendment. In addition, the license rights granted to Zimmer under this Amendment shall be exclusive (i) from the Original Effective
Date until September 30, 2032 for the sEEG Products and Strip/Grid Products (the “sEEG and Strip/Grid Product Term”); and
(ii) from the Effective Date until October 31, 2034 for the OneRF™ Product System (the “RF Term”).
Global
Economic Conditions
Generally,
worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain, particularly due to the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East,
disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, and increased inflation. The general economic and capital market conditions
both in the U.S. and worldwide, have been volatile in the past and at times have adversely affected our access to capital and increased
the cost of capital. The capital and credit markets may not be available to support future capital raising activity on favorable terms
or at all. If economic conditions continue to decline, our future cost of equity or debt capital and access to the capital markets could
be adversely affected. We do not currently anticipate any meaningful impact from current or proposed tariffs on imported goods.
24
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Form 10-Q
Our
operating results could be materially impacted by changes in the overall macroeconomic environment and other economic factors. Changes
in economic conditions, supply chain constraints, logistics challenges, labor shortages, increased inflation, the conflicts in Ukraine
and the Middle East, disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, and steps taken by governments and central banks, have
led to higher inflation, which has led to an increase in costs and has caused changes in fiscal and monetary policy, including increased
interest rates.
Financial
Overview
Product
Revenue
Our
product revenue was derived from the sale of our Strip/Grid Products, the sEEG Products and the Electrode Cable Assembly Products based
on Evo cortical electrode technology and the OneRF Products, which are products based on our OneRF Ablation System. We anticipate that
we will generate additional revenue from the sale of products based on Evo cortical electrode technology and our OneRF Ablation System.
We
have received FDA 510(k) clearance for our cortical electrode for temporary (less than 30 days) recording, monitoring, and stimulation
on the surface of the brain, our Evo sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and
stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain, and
our OneRF Ablation System for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional neurosurgical procedure.
Product
Gross Profit
Product
gross profit represents our product revenue less our cost of product revenue. Our cost of product revenue consists of the manufacturing
and materials costs incurred by our third-party contract manufacturers in connection with our Strip/Grid Products, sEEG Products, OneRF
Products and outside supplier materials costs of producing the Electrode Cable Assembly Products. In addition, the cost of product revenue
includes royalty fees incurred in connection with our license agreements as well as valuation adjustments for excess or obsolete inventory.
License
Revenue
The
Company determined that the RF Distribution License granted under the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement represented
functional intellectual property given Zimmer’s access to the underlying intellectual property associated with the OneRF Product.
As such, the revenue related to the license was recognized at the point in time in which the license/know-how was delivered to Zimmer
which occurred in October 2024. Revenue recognized under the Amendment during the nine months ending June 30, 2025 was $3.0 million.
For further discussion about the determination of license revenue, product revenue and cost of product revenue, and for a discussion
of milestones and royalty payments under the Amended and Restated Zimmer Distribution Agreement, see “—Liquidity and Capital
Resources—Liquidity Outlook” below and see “Note 7 — Zimmer Distribution Agreement and Other Product Revenue”
included in our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report.
Selling,
General and Administrative
Selling,
general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in
functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal and litigation costs
relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with financial and administrative
matters, and sales and marketing in connection with the commercial sale of cEEG strip/grid, sEEG depth electrode, OneRF ablation system
and electrode cable assembly products. We anticipate that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in the future
to support our continued research and development activities, further commercialization of our cortical strip and grid technology, ablation
system and our depth electrode technology, and the increased costs of operating as a public company. These increases will include increased
costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees for legal and professional services, as well as other public company-related
costs.

Revenue and Product Gross Profit
Product
revenue was $1.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 with a gross profit and gross profit percentage of $0.9 million
and 53.9%, respectively. Product revenue was $0.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 with a gross margin and gross profit
percentage of $0.3 million and 34.1%, respectively. The increase in gross profit percentage during the current period was largely due
to the higher margin OneRF Products being sold in the current period under the Amendment with Zimmer. Product revenue consisted largely
of OneRF Products during the three months ended June 30, 2025 while revenue consisted of Strip/Grid Products, sEEG Products, Electrode
Cable Assembly Products, and OneRF Product sales during the comparable prior year period. The cost of product revenue consisted of the
manufacturing and materials costs incurred by our third-party contract manufacturers in connection with our Strip/Grid Products, sEEG
Products and OneRF Products, and outside supplier materials costs in connection with the Electrode Cable Assembly. In addition, cost
of product revenue included royalty fees incurred of approximately $38,000 in connection with our license agreements during each of the
three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling,
general and administrative expenses were $1.6 million and $1.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The $0.3 million expense decrease in the current quarter over the comparable prior year quarter was largely attributed to lower legal
costs of $0.1 million and lower investor relations and other public company costs of $0.2 million. Selling, general and administrative
expenses included $0.2 million and $0.3 million of stock-based compensation during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses were $1.2 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. There was a negligible decease
in the current period over the prior year period which was attributed largely to the timing of product development activities in the
current quarter when compared to the comparable prior year quarter. Research and development expenses primarily included salary-related
expenses and costs related to consulting services, materials and supplies associated with the development of sEEG Products and to a much
lesser extent Strip/Grid Products. Research and development expenses included $70,000 and $68,000 of stock-based compensation during
the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Fair
Value Change in Warrant Liability
The
net change in fair value of the warrant liability during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $0.3 million benefit. The change was
due primarily to fluctuations in our common stock fair value. There were no warrants outstanding during the three months ended June 30,
2024 that were measured on a fair value basis.
Financing
Costs
Financing
costs during the three months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of the costs associated with the at-the market offering facility (described
further below) in the amount of $9,000. We did not incur any financing costs during the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Other

Revenue and Product Gross Profit
Product
revenue was $6.4 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 with a gross profit and gross profit percentage of $3.6 million and
56.8%, respectively. Product revenue was $3.2 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2024 with a gross profit and gross profit
percentage of $0.9 million and 29.5%, respectively. The increase in gross profit percentage during the current period was largely due
to higher margin OneRF Products being sold in the current period under the Amendment with Zimmer. Product revenue consisted largely of
OneRF Products during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 while revenue consisted of Strip/Grid Products, sEEG Products, Electrode Cable
Assembly Products, and OneRF Product sales during the comparable prior year period. The cost of product revenue consisted of the manufacturing
and materials costs incurred by our third-party contract manufacturers in connection with our Strip/Grid Products, sEEG Products and
OneRF Products, and outside supplier materials costs in connection with the Electrode Cable Assembly Products. In addition, cost of product
revenue included royalty fees incurred of approximately $113,000 and $117,000 in connection with our license agreements during the nine
months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
License
Revenue
License
revenue was $3.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025. License revenue during the current period related to the distribution

Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling,
general and administrative expenses were $5.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $6.1 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 2024. The $0.5 million decrease in the current nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the comparable prior
year period was primarily due to lower legal costs of $0.3 million, lower investor relations and other public company costs of $0.5 million,
offset by higher professional fees of $0.3 million on a net basis. Selling, general and administrative expenses included $0.7 million
and $0.8 million of stock-based compensation during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses were $3.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.0 million for the nine months ended
June 30, 2024. The $0.1 million decrease period over period was attributed to the timing and an overall reduction in OneRF Product development
activities during the current nine months ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the comparable prior year period. Research and development
primarily included salary-related expenses and costs related to consulting services, materials and supplies associated with the development
of sEEG Products and to a much lesser extent Strip/Grid Products. Research and development expenses included $0.2 million of stock-based
compensation during each of the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Fair
Value Change in Warrant Liability
The
net change in fair value of the warrant liability during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 was $1.1 million. The change was due primarily
to fluctuations in our common stock fair value. There were no warrants outstanding during the nine months ended June 30, 2024 that were
measured on a fair value basis.
Financing
Costs
Financing
costs during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of the amortization of the deferred issuance costs associated with the debt
facility (described further below) in the amount of $0.2 million and additional legal and loan facility termination costs of $0.1 million
upon the termination of the Debt Facility in November 2024. In addition, $9,000 in legal fees were incurred in connection with the at-the
market offering facility (described further below). We did not incur any financing costs during the nine months ended June 30, 2024.
Other
Income
Other
income during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted of $104,000 and $103,000 related to interest income attributed to
our cash and cash equivalents, respectively.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Overview
As
of June 30, 2025, our principal source of liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents in the aggregate of approximately $8.0 million.

$1.0 million which included a 7.0% commission to the Underwriter and legal and other expenses in the amount of $0.3 million. The Company
received approximately $8.2 million in net proceeds.
August
2024 Private Placement
On August 1, 2024, we entered into a Securities
Purchase Agreement with certain Purchasers, pursuant to which we, in a private placement, agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of
(i) 2,944,446 shares of our Company’s common stock (the “Shares”), par value $0.001 per share and (ii) warrants to purchase
an aggregate of 2,208,338 shares of common stock (the “PIPE Warrants”) at a purchase price of $0.90 per unit, consisting of
one share and a PIPE Warrant to purchase 0.75 shares of common stock, resulting in total gross proceeds of approximately $2.65 million
before deducting estimated expenses. The 2024 Private Placement closed on August 2, 2024. Issuance costs attributed to the 2024 Private
Placement amounted to $0.2 million.
The PIPE Warrants are exercisable beginning on
the date of issuance and had an initial exercise price of $1.19 per share, subject to adjustment. In April 2025, the exercise price was
reset to $0.465 upon the close of the April 2025 Financing for all of the PIPE Warrants, except for the PIPE Warrants to purchase 20,834
shares of common stock issued to a director on our Board of Directors for which the exercise price was reset to $0.876 per share. The
PIPE Warrants will expire on the third anniversary of the date of issuance.
In
connection with the 2024 Private Placement, we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the Shares
and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants which became effective on September 13, 2024.
At-The-Market

On
December 21, 2022, we entered into a Capital on Demand TM Sales Agreement (“Sales Agreement”) with JonesTrading
Institutional Services LLC (“JonesTrading”) to create an at-the-market offering program (“ATM”) under which we
may offer and sell shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $14.5 million. JonesTrading is entitled to a commission at a fixed
commission rate of up to 3% of the gross proceeds. On July 24, 2023, we decreased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant
to the Sales Agreement, such that we were offering up to an aggregate of $2.6 million of our common stock for sale under the Sales Agreement,
including the shares of our common stock previously sold. Subsequently, on December 1, 2023, however, we increased the amount of common
stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement, such that we were offering up to an aggregate of $4.8 million of our common stock
for sale under the Sales Agreement, including the shares of our common stock previously sold. On January 5, 2024, we further increased
the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement, such that we are offering up to an aggregate of $9.3 million
of our common stock for sale under the Sales Agreement, including the shares of common stock previously sold. Through June 30, 2025,
we have issued 5,544,489 shares of common stock under the ATM for gross proceeds in the amount of $8.0 million. We incurred issuance
costs in connection with the ATM in the amount of $0.6 million through June 30, 2025. On August 16, 2024, we increased the amount of
common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement by $3.0 million. On April 3, 2025, we decreased the amount of common stock
that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement to zero.
Debt
Facility Financing
On
August 2, 2024, we entered into the Debt Facility Agreement with Growth Opportunity Funding, LLC, as the Lender, which provided for a
delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $3.0 million. We were permitted to borrow loans under
the Debt Facility Agreement from time to time, for general corporate purposes and subject to certain specified conditions, until the
earliest of: (i) November 30, 2024, (ii) the occurrence of any Monetization Event as defined in the Debt Facility Agreement or a change
of control, or (iii) at the Lender’s option, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the Debt
Facility Agreement. On November 7, 2024, the Company terminated the Debt Facility Agreement, and no amounts were drawn under the Debt
Facility Agreement. Total costs incurred under the debt facility financing was $0.4 million.

Funding
Requirements
Certain
of our cash requirements relate to the funding of our ongoing product development and commercialization operations and our milestone
and royalty obligations under our intellectual property licenses with WARF and Mayo. See “Part 1, Item 1—Business—Clinical
Development and Regulatory Pathway—Clinical Experience, Future Development and Clinical Trial Plans” in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024 for a discussion of design, development, pre-clinical and clinical activities that
we may conduct in the future, including expected cash expenditures required for some of those activities, to the extent we are able to
estimate such costs.
On
January 21, 2020, we entered into an Amended and Restated License Agreement (the “WARF License”) with WARF, which amended
and restated in full our prior license agreement with WARF, dated October 1, 2014. Under the WARF License, we have agreed to pay WARF
a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment
of $50,000 for 2020, $100,000 for 2021 and $150,000 for 2022 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If
we or any of our sublicensees contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such
contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by us if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate
will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.
Under
the Amended and Restated License and Development Agreement with Mayo (the “Mayo Development Agreement”), we have agreed to
pay Mayo a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the Mayo Development Agreement. See “Note
4 – Commitments and Contingencies” included in our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 –
Financial Statements” in this Report for more information about the WARF License and the Mayo Development Agreement.
Our
other cash requirements within the next twelve months include accounts payable, accrued expenses, purchase commitments and other current
liabilities. Our other cash requirements greater than twelve months from various contractual obligations and commitments include operating
leases and contracted services. Refer to “Note 4 – Commitments and Contingencies” included in our condensed financial
statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report for further detail of our lease obligations
and the timing of expected future payments. Contracted services include agreements with third-party service providers for clinical research,
product development, manufacturing, supplies, payroll services, equipment maintenance services, and audits for periods up to fiscal year
2027.
We
expect to satisfy our short-term and long-term obligations through cash on hand and revenue from commercial sales to cover expenses.
Liquidity
Outlook
For
a discussion of potential fee payments under the Amended and Restated Zimmer Development Agreement, see “Note 7 — Zimmer
Distribution Agreement and Other Product Revenue” included in our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item
1 – Financial Statements” in this Report. Even though we have received regulatory clearance to expand the use of our Evo
sEEG electrode technology for up to 30 days, commercial sales of the sEEG electrodes and OneRF Products are expected to take some time
to be a significant source of liquidity. Zimmer has exclusive global rights to distribute our strip and grid cortical electrodes, depth
electrodes and electrode cable assembly products. Zimmer’s failure to timely develop or commercialize these products would have
a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. On October 2024, we entered into an Amended and Restated Distribution
Agreement with Zimmer to provide Zimmer with the exclusive right and license to distribute also our OneRF Ablation System for an upfront
payment of $3.0 million, with eligibility for an additional $1.0 million payment from Zimmer upon achievement of certain specified net
sales milestones.

At
June 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents in the aggregate of approximately $8.0 million. Our independent registered public accounting
firm included an explanatory paragraph in the report on our financial statements as of and for the years ended September 30, 2024 and
2023, respectively, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We believe our current
available cash and cash equivalents coupled with the anticipated increase in product revenues from minimum purchases and improved gross
margins under the Zimmer Amendment and forecasted operating expense reductions, will be sufficient to fund our planned expenditures and
meet our obligations for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.
In
the future, however, in the absence of an adequate level of commercial sales to cover expenses, we may need to secure additional funding
through public or private equity or debt financings, through collaborations or partnerships with other companies or other sources. We
may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any failure to raise capital when needed could compromise
our ability to execute on our business plan. If we are unable to raise additional funds, or if our anticipated operating results are
not achieved, we believe planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period that existing resources can fund
our operations. If we are unable to obtain the necessary capital in the future from operating results or future financing, it may have
a material adverse effect on our operations and the development of our technology, or we may have to cease operations altogether.
The
development and commercialization of our cortical strip, grid electrode, depth electrode, ablation system technology and future products
and technology is subject to numerous uncertainties, and we could use our cash and cash equivalent resources sooner than we expect. Additionally,
the process of developing medical devices is costly, and the timing of progress in pre-clinical tests and clinical trials is uncertain.
Our ability to successfully transition to profitability will be dependent upon achieving further regulatory approvals and achieving a
level of product sales adequate to support our cost structure. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive
cash flow from operating activities.

Net
cash used in operating activities
Net
cash used in operating activities was $1.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025, which consisted of a net loss of $2.0 million
partially offset by non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization related to intangible assets, a fair value change in
warrant liability and operating lease expense, totaling approximately $0.3 million in the aggregate. Our net loss was further adjusted
to account for the reclassification of debt and equity facility termination costs to financing activities in the amount of $0.1 million.
The net change in our net operating assets and liabilities associated with fluctuations in our operating activities resulted in a cash
source of approximately $0.3 million. The net cash source stemming from the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily
attributable to both a decrease in accounts receivable and inventory, partially offset by a net decrease in our aggregate accrued expense
and accounts payable as well as by a slight increase in our prepaid expenses associated with the timing of payments.
Net
cash used in operating activities was $8.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024, which consisted of a net loss of $9.0 million
partially offset principally by non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization related to intangible assets, operating
lease expense, totaling approximately $1.3 million in the aggregate. The net change in our net operating assets and liabilities associated
with fluctuations in our operating activities resulted in a cash use of approximately $0.6 million. The net cash use stemming from the
change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to both an increase in our accounts receivable and inventory purchases.

Critical
Accounting Estimates
Our
financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require
us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements
as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon
which we rely are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that we make these estimates and judgments. To the extent
that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting
policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding
and evaluating our reported financial results are described in “Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”
to our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report.
Of
these policies, the following are considered critical to an understanding of our condensed financial statements included in “Part
1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report as they require the application of the most subjective and the most complex
judgments:
Revenues
For
discussion about the determination of license revenue and product revenue, see “Note 7 — Zimmer Distribution Agreement and
Other Product Revenue” included in our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements”
in this Report. To date, we have not had, nor expect to have in the future, significant variable consideration adjustments related to
product revenue, such as chargebacks, sales allowances and sales returns.
Stock-based
Compensation
For
discussions about the application of grant date fair value associated with our stock-based compensation, see “Note 8 — Stock-Based
Compensation” included in our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements”
in this Report.
Fair
Value of Warrant liability
We
issued warrants in connection with our August 2024 Private Placement. The warrants were classified as a liability on our balance sheet
and were recorded at fair value as certain provisions precluded equity accounting treatment for these instruments. We will continue to
adjust the liabilities for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise, expiration, or until such time that cash settlement
or indexation provisions are no longer in effect for the warrants. For discussions about the application of fair value associated
with the warrants, see “Note 12 – Stockholders’ Equity” included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements”
in this Report.
