Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors
Senseonics Holdings, Inc.:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Senseonics Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ (deficit) equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s current operating plan, existing unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and minimum cash and satisfaction of performance milestones to comply with debt covenants under its Loan and Security Agreement raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for the one-year period following the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
83
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

Senseonics Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1.
Organization
Senseonics Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a medical technology company focused on the development and manufacturing of long-term, implantable continuous glucose monitoring systems to improve the lives of people with diabetes by enhancing their ability to manage their disease with relative ease and accuracy.
Senseonics, Incorporated is a wholly owned subsidiary of Senseonics Holdings, Inc. and was originally incorporated on October 30, 1996 and commenced operations on January 15, 1997. Eon Care Services, LLC and Eon Management Services, LLC are wholly owned subsidiaries of Senseonics, Incorporated formed in April 2024 and July 2024, respectively. Senseonics Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated entities, including its consolidated VIEs are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Company”, unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires.
2.
Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern
The Company’s operations are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, among others, current and potential competitors with greater resources, limited operating history as a commercial-stage company and uncertainty of future profitability. Since inception, the Company has suffered substantial operating losses, principally from expenses associated with the Company’s research and development programs and commercial launch of the Eversense® 365 CGM System (for use up to one-year ) in the United States, the Eversense® E3 (for use up to six months) in Europe and expenses incurred for our legacy product versions.
The Company has not generated significant profit from the sale of products and its ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability largely depends on the Company’s ability to successfully expand the commercialization of Eversense, continue the development of its products and product upgrades, and to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or certifications for the sale of those products. These activities will require significant uses of working capital through 2025 and beyond. The Company generated total gross profit of $ 0.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and had an accumulated deficit of $ 947.9 million at December 31, 2024. To date, the Company has funded its operations principally through the issuance of preferred stock, common stock, convertible note issuance and debt. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $ 74.6 million.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) assuming the Company will continue
as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
Based on the Company's current operating plan, existing unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, minimum cash and satisfaction of performance milestones to comply with debt covenants under its Loan and Security Agreement as discussed in Note 13, the Company has determined that substantial doubt exists regarding its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional liquidity to continue its operations over the next twelve months and we are currently evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations. We anticipate that our principal uses of cash in the future will be primarily to fund our operations, working capital needs, capital expenditures and other strategic initiatives. Our ability to continue to fund our operations and meet capital needs will depend on our ability to successfully obtain funding from public or private debt and equity financings and other sources of capital, as further described above under “Funding Requirements and Outlook”.
Actions taken by the Company with regards to liquidity and to manage our cash flows during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, included, but were not limited to the following:
89
On October 24, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors to issue and sell (i) in a registered direct offering an aggregate of 45,714,286 shares of the Company’s common stock, $ 0.001 par value per share (the “RD Shares”) and (ii) in a concurrent private placement, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 45,714,286 shares of common stock (the “PP Warrants”). The combined purchase price of each RD Share and accompanying PP Warrant was $ 0.35 per share for total gross proceeds of $ 16.0 million. The RD Shares and the PP Warrants were immediately separable and were issued separately. The PP Warrants have an exercise price of $ 0.35 per share, are non-exercisable for the first six months after issuance and expire five years from the date of initial exercisability. The offering closed on October 28, 2024, and the Company received proceeds of approximately $ 14.8 million after payment of fees to the placement agent, but before payment of any additional expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the transaction. The proceeds were allocated to the RD Shares and PP Warrants based on the relative fair values of the instruments themselves at the time of issuance.
On September 8, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with the several institutions or entities party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders") and Hercules Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Hercules”) in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent for itself and the Lenders, pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Company up to $ 50.0 million in senior secured term loans (the “Term Loan Facility”), consisting of (i) an initial term loan of $ 25.0 million (the “Tranche 1 Loan”), which was funded on the Effective Date and (ii) two additional tranches of term loans in the amounts of up to $ 10.0 million (the “Tranche 2 Loan”) and $ 15.0 million (the “Tranche 3 Loan”), respectively, which will become available to the Company upon the Company’s satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement. In December 2023, the Company met the terms and conditions to draw on Tranche 2 Loan and the loan was funded on January 2, 2024 in an amount of $ 10.0 million. The loans under the Loan and Security Agreement mature on September 1, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”).
On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with a limited number of holders (the “Noteholders”) of the Company’s currently outstanding 5.25 % Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”). Under the terms of the Exchange Agreements, the Noteholders agreed to exchange with the Company (the “Exchanges”) up to $ 30.8 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes (the “Exchanged Notes”) for a combination of $ 7.5 million of cash and newly issued shares of common stock (the “Exchange Shares”). The number of Exchange Shares was determined based upon the volume-weighted average price per share of the common stock during a 15-day averaging period commencing on August 11, 2023 and ending August 31, 2023. Based on the volume-weighted average price per share of the common stock during the averaging period, a total of 35.1 million shares of common stock were issued in the Exchanges. The Exchanges were settled on the initial share issuance date of August 14, 2023 and the final settlement date of September 5, 2023.
In August 2023, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“GS”), under which the Company could offer and sell, from time to time, at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 106.6 million through GS as its sales agent in an “at the market” offering. GS will receive a commission up to 3.0 % of the gross proceeds of any common stock sold through GS under the Equity Distribution Agreement. The shares will be offered and sold pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2023. On October 24, 2024, the Company amended the Equity Distribution Agreement with GS to reduce the maximum amount of shares issuable thereunder to $ 55.0 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company received approximately $ 4.3 million in net proceeds from the sale of 11,918,121 shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement.
In November 2021, the Company entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement (the “2021 Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”), under which the Company could offer and sell, from time to time, at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 150.0 million through Jefferies as the sales agent in an “at the market” offering. Jefferies received commissions up to 3.0 % of the gross proceeds of any common stock sold through Jefferies under the 2021 Sales Agreement. During 2023, the Company received $ 7.4 million in net proceeds from the sale of 9,944,663 shares of its common stock under the 2021 Sales Agreement. Effective August 7, 2023, the
90
Company and Jefferies mutually agreed to terminate the 2021 Sales Agreement. At the time of termination, approximately $ 106.6 million remained available for issuance pursuant to the 2021 Sales Agreement.
On August 9, 2020, the Company entered into a financing agreement with the parent company of Ascensia Diabetes Care Holdings AG (“Ascensia”), PHC Holdings Corporation (“PHC”), pursuant to which the Company issued $ 35.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Convertible Notes due on October 31, 2024 (the “PHC Notes”), to PHC. The Company also issued 2,941,176 shares of common stock to PHC as a financing fee. The Company also had the option to sell and issue PHC up to $ 15.0 million of convertible preferred stock on or before December 31, 2022, contingent upon obtaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval for the 180-day Eversense product for marketing in the United States before such date. The Company successfully obtained FDA approval in February 2022 and the option was not exercised. As described in Note 13, on March 13, 2023, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “PHC Exchange Agreement”) with PHC, pursuant to which PHC agreed to exchange (the “PHC Exchange”) its $ 35.0 million aggregate principal amount of the PHC Notes, including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, for a warrant (the “PHC Exchange Warrant”) to purchase up to 68,525,311 shares of the Company’s common stock, $ 0.001 par value per share (the “PHC Exchange Warrant Shares”). The PHC Exchange Warrant is a “pre-funded” warrant with a nominal exercise price of $ 0.001 per PHC Exchange Warrant Share. On March 31, 2023, the PHC Exchange was consummated, and the Company issued the PHC Exchange Warrant in consideration for the cancellation of the PHC Notes.
On March 13, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with PHC, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to PHC in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) a warrant (the “Purchase Warrant”) to purchase 15,425,750 shares of the Company’s common stock, $ 0.001 par value per share (the “Purchase Warrant Shares”). The purchase price of the Purchase Warrant was approximately $ 0.97 per Purchase Warrant Share, representing the undiscounted, trailing 10-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock through March 10, 2023. The Purchase Warrant is a “pre-funded” warrant with a nominal exercise price of $ 0.001 per Purchase Warrant Share. The issuance of the Purchase Warrants enabled PHC to maintain, as of the closing of the transaction, a 15 % beneficial ownership for purposes of the Investor Rights Agreement, dated August 9, 2020, between the Company and PHC. The Private Placement closed on March 13, 2023 (the “Private Placement Closing Date”) and the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $ 15.0 million, before deducting private placement expenses payable by the Company.

as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of Senseonics Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated entities, including its VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
In November 2024, Eon Management Services, LLC entered into management services agreements (the
“Administrative Agreement”) for an initial fixed term of 10 years with several professional corporations created to support patient access to the Eversense system by contracting nurse practitioners and other healthcare professionals to perform Eversense insertion procedures and other clinical activities. Eon Care Clinicians PC, Eon Care Clinicians of NJ PC, and Eon Care Clinicians of CA PC (collectively referred to as “Eon Care PCs”) are the professional corporations that were established pursuant to the requirements of its respective domestic jurisdiction governing the corporate practice of medicine.
In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, the Eon Care PCs have been determined to be VIEs of the Company, as the Company is its primary beneficiary with the ability, through the Administrative Agreement to direct the activities (excluding clinical activities) that most significantly affect the Eon Care PCs financial performance and
91
have the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the Eon Care PCs that could potentially be significant to it. The assets of the consolidated VIEs may only be used to settle obligations of the consolidated VIEs, if any. Our variable interest entities’ assets, liabilities, and results of operations were not material to our consolidated financial results.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, estimates are used for, but not limited to, stock-based compensation, recoverability of long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets, deferred taxes and valuation allowances, derivative assets and liabilities, obsolete inventory, warranty obligations, variable consideration related to revenue, allowance for credit losses, depreciable lives of property and equipment, and accruals for clinical study costs, which are accrued based on estimates of work performed under contract. The Company bases these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends, and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and recorded revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates; however, management does not believe that such differences would be material.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Restricted cash represents cash and cash equivalents that are restricted to withdrawal or use as of the reporting date. The Company’s restricted cash relates to collateral for procurement cards issued by a U.S. commercial bank. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consisted of the following (in thousands):

Marketable Securities
Marketable securities typically consist of commercial paper, corporate debt securities, asset backed securities and government and agency securities. The Company’s investments are classified as available for sale. Such securities are carried at fair value, with any unrealized holding gains or losses reported, net of any tax effects reported, as accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary, if any, are included in consolidated results of operations. A decline in the market value of any available for sale security below cost that is deemed to be other-than-temporary results in a reduction in fair value, which is charged to earnings in that period, and a new cost basis for the security is established. Dividend and interest income is recognized when earned. The cost of securities sold is calculated using the specific identification method. We classify all available-for-sale marketable securities with maturities greater than one year from the balance sheet date as non-current assets. We do not generally intend to sell these investments and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity.
Inventory and Obsolescence
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the standard cost method that approximates first in, first out. The Company records an adjustment to reduce the value of inventory for items that are potentially obsolete, where standard costs require adjustment to the net realizable value, and are in excess
92
of future demand taking into consideration the product shelf life. The sensor manufacturing process can span several months, involves various contract manufacturers and includes raw components with long lead times, often resulting in significant work-in-progress inventory. However, expiry does not commence until the chemistry is applied to the sensor. The Company is able to isolate pre-chemistry sensor inventory in progress from post-chemistry sensor inventory in progress and finished goods to assess against demand forecasts and customer dating requirements for potential excess or obsolete inventory. The Company’s estimates are based on information known as of the balance sheet date and include factors such as anticipated future usage and sales, potential for external unfavorable conditions such as import holds or quality issues, and planned product upgrades. However, if actual product quality or conditions differ from the Company’s assumptions, additional inventory adjustments that would increase cost of sales could be required.
The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with pre-launch inventory upon regulatory approval when, based on management’s judgment, future commercialization is considered probable and the future economic benefit is expected to be realized. The determination to capitalize inventory costs is based on the particular facts and circumstances relating to the product. Inventory costs incurred prior to regulatory approval are expensed as research and development expenses.
Accounts Receivable
The Company grants credit to various customers in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from distributors and consignment customers. These receivables are reduced by an expected credit loss at the time revenue is recognized. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the credit loss reserve after appropriate collection efforts have been exhausted and when it is deemed that a balance is uncollectible. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the credit loss reserve was $ 0.3 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is generally between three to seven years , and is recorded within operating expenses and cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Upon disposition of the assets, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are included as expense in the accompanying statement of operations.
93
Intangibles
The Company amortizes intangible assets acquired using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful life. The useful life is determined after considering the specific facts and circumstances related to the use of the intangible asset such as the contractual term of any agreement related to the asset, the historical performance of the asset, the Company's strategy for use of the asset, and any other factors which could impact the useful life of the asset.
Leases
The Company evaluates whether contractual arrangements contain leases at the inception of such arrangements. Specific considerations include whether the Company can control the underlying asset and has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. Substantially all of the Company’s leases are long-term operating leases with fixed payment terms. The Company currently does not have financing leases. Right-of-use (“ROU”) operating lease assets represent the Company’s right-to-use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Options to extend the leases or terminate the leases early are only included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.
The Company recognizes a ROU lease asset and liability as of the lease commencement date at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. If the discount rate in the lease agreement is not implicit, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate based on the rate of interest the Company would have to pay to borrow a similar amount on a collateralized basis over a similar term. Lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single component for facility leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are expensed over the related term.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
Management reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment, intangibles assets, and right-of-use assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the long-lived asset is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. There were no impairment indicators identified in 2024 or 2023.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. ASC Topic 815 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. We review the terms of convertible debt issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as separate derivative instruments.
The fair value of the embedded features are accounted for as a derivative liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and adjusted to fair value each reporting period. The change in fair value of derivatives is recorded as a component of other (expense) income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Product Warranty Obligations
The Company provides a warranty of one year on its smart transmitters. Additionally, the Company may also replace Eversense system components that do not function in accordance with the product specifications. Estimated
94
replacement costs are recorded at the time of shipment as a charge to cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations and are developed by analyzing product performance data and historical replacement experience, including comparing actual return management authorizations to revenue.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the change in estimated warranty liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

Revenue Recognition
We generate product revenue from sales of the Eversense system and related components and supplies to Ascensia, through the Commercialization Agreement, third-party distributors outside the United States and to strategic fulfillment partners in the United States (collectively “Customers”), who then resell the products to health care providers and patients. We are paid for our sales directly to the Customers, regardless of whether or not the Customers resell the products to health care providers and patients. The Company also generates product revenue from sales of the Eversense system and related components and supplies through a consignment model with our network of healthcare professionals in the United States and revenue is recognized when the product is consumed by a patient.
Revenue from product sales is recognized at a point in time when the Customers obtain control of our product based upon the delivery terms as defined in the contract at an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for the product. Contracts with our distributors contain performance obligations, mostly for the supply of goods, and is typically satisfied upon transfer of control of the product. Customer contracts do not include the right to return unless there is a product issue, in which case we may provide replacement product. Product conformity guarantees do not create additional performance obligations and are accounted for as warranty obligations in accordance with guarantee and loss contingency accounting guidance.
Under the consignment model, small quantities of inventory are held at healthcare provider locations to ensure
availability when a patient is identified. No revenue is recognized upon delivery of our products to the healthcare provider locations, as we retain the ability to control the inventory. Rather, revenue is recognized when the product is consumed by a patient. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company derived 15 % and 5 % of total revenue, respectively from consignment sales.
Our contracts may contain some form of variable consideration such as prompt-pay discounts, tier-volume price discounts and for the Commercialization Agreement, revenue share. Variable consideration, such as discounts and prompt-pay incentives, are treated as a reduction in revenue and variable considerations, such as revenue share, is treated as an addition in revenue when the product sale is recognized. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period, when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Estimating variable consideration and the related constraint requires the use of management judgment. Depending on the variable consideration, we develop estimates for the expected value based on the terms of the agreements, historical data, geographic mix, reimbursement rates and market conditions.
Contract assets consist of unbilled receivables from customers and are recorded at net realizable value and relate to the revenue share variable consideration from the Commercialization Agreement.

Cost of Sales
The Company uses third-party contract manufacturers to manufacture Eversense and related components and supplies. Cost of sales includes raw materials, contract manufacturing service fees, expected warranty costs, recall costs, product obsolescence, scrap, third-party warehousing, shipping and handling expenses associated with product delivery, and employee-related costs of the internal supply chain and manufacturing team.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing Eversense, including clinical trials and feasibility studies, and partnerships for strategic initiatives including insulin delivery and new indications. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees including stock-based compensation, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to contract research organizations and other consultants, and other outside expenses. Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in the Company’s sales and marketing, executive, finance, accounting, business development, information technology, and human resources functions. Other significant costs include information technology, website design and advertising, educational and promotional materials, tradeshow expenses, marketing programs, facility costs, legal fees relating to patent and corporate matters, and fees for accounting and consulting services.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation related to stock option grants and restricted stock units under stock incentive plans, purchases under the employee stock purchase plan, as well as inducement stock grants based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant. The estimated fair value of stock options on the date of grant is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the individual award, which typically equals the vesting period. Forfeitures are accounted for in the period in which they occur.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes Model”) to determine the fair value of stock-option awards. Valuation of stock awards requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to determine the fair value of the awards. These assumptions and judgments include estimating the fair value of the Company’s common stock, the risk-free interest rate, future volatility of the Company’s stock price, dividend yields, and the expected life of the stock-option awards. Changes in these assumptions can affect the fair value estimate.
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates for constant maturity U.S. Treasury securities consistent with the expected life of employee stock options. The expected life represents the period of time the stock options are expected to be outstanding and is based on the simplified method. Under the simplified method, the expected life of an option is presumed to be the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. The Company uses the simplified method due to the lack of sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to otherwise estimate the expected life of the stock options. Expected volatility is based on the daily closing prices of the Company as well as the daily closing prices of a peer group of comparable publicly traded companies in similar stages of development. The Company has assumed no dividend yield because it does not expect to pay dividends in the future, which is consistent with its history of not paying dividends.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and
96
are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted. The measurement of a deferred tax asset is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Management uses a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, as well as guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties and financial statement reporting disclosures. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. In the ordinary course of business, transactions occur for which the ultimate outcome may be uncertain. Management does not expect the outcome related to accrued uncertain tax provisions to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions in the United States and remains subject to examination by taxing jurisdictions for the year 2004 and all subsequent periods due to the availability of NOL and tax credit carryforwards. In addition, all of the net operating losses and research and development credit carryforwards that may be used in future years are still subject to adjustment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under ASC 825, the Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments that are not recognized at fair value in the statement of financial position for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short maturities. The Company’s term loan under the 2025 Notes, Loan and Security Agreement and warrants are recorded at historical cost, net of discounts. The fair value for debt is estimated by a discounted cash flow model using a discount rate equal to the rate currently offered on similar borrowings. The associated embedded conversion features in the Notes are derivative instruments and along with Options are remeasured at fair value each reporting period. The valuation methodology for derivative instruments are described further within Note 18 – Fair Value Measurements.

Contract Assets
Contract assets consist of unbilled receivables from customers and are recorded at net realizable value and relate to the revenue share variable consideration from the Ascensia Commercialization Agreement. Accounts receivable – related parties, net as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 included unbilled accounts receivable of $ 0.9 million and $ 1.5 million, respectively. The Company expects to invoice and collect all unbilled accounts receivable within 12 months.
Concentration of Revenues and Customers
Net revenue from the Company’s distribution arrangement with Ascensia, a related party, accounted for 82 %, and 93 % of total net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Revenue earned under consignment arrangements with healthcare providers accounted for approximately 15 % and 5 % of total net revenues from the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Ascensia earns a commission on sales made through the consignment channel. Revenues for these corresponding periods represent sales of sensors, transmitters, and miscellaneous Eversense system components.
5. Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. An aggregate of 83,951,061 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the PHC Exchange Warrant Shares and the Purchase Warrant Shares held by PHC are included in the number of outstanding shares used for the computation of basic net loss per share for both years presented. Since the shares are issuable for little or no consideration, sometimes referred to as “penny warrants”, they are considered outstanding in the context of earnings per share, as discussed in ASC 260-10-45-13.
Dilutive net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and, when dilutive, potential common share equivalents. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of
98
shares issuable from restricted stock units, stock options, warrants and the Company’s convertible instruments. Potentially dilutive common shares issuable upon vesting of restricted stock units and exercise of stock options and warrants are determined using the average share price for each period under the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive common shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s convertible instruments are determined using the if converted method. The if-converted method assumes conversion of convertible securities at the beginning of the reporting period. Interest expense, dividends, and the changes in fair value measurement recognized during the period are added back to the numerator. The denominator includes the common shares issuable upon conversion of convertible securities.
In periods of net loss, all potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share for those periods, as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

The Company periodically reviews its portfolio of debt securities to determine if any investment is impaired due to credit loss or other potential valuation concerns. For debt securities where the fair value of the investment is less than the amortized cost basis , the Company assesses at the individual security level, for various quantitative factors including, but not limited to, the nature of the investments, changes in credit ratings, interest rate fluctuations, industry analyst reports, and the severity of impairment. Unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2023 were

The Company recorded $ 4.3 million and $ 0.2 million in cost of sales for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, to reduce the value of inventory for items that are potentially obsolete due to expiry, in excess of product demand, or to adjust costs to their net realizable value. These costs were primarily write offs of our existing Eversense E3 systems following obtaining FDA 510(k) clearance to sell Eversense 365. In addition, we incurred $ 0.6 million in cost of sales due to impairment losses on prepayments to suppliers as the result of the transition from Eversense E3 to Eversense 365 system.
The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with products when future commercialization is considered probable and the future economic benefit is expected to be realized, which is typically when regulatory approval is obtained. As such, the Company began capitalizing costs related to the 365-day product inventory in September 2024 upon successfully obtaining FDA 510(k) clearance. Prior to regulatory approval, the Company expensed all inventory-related costs, including that used for clinical development, to research and development expenses. We expect this to impact the cost of sales as the pre-clearance inventory is sold to customers. The Company incurred $ 1.9 million and $ 0.3 million in product costs prior to the clearance for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, which primarily consisted of work in process inventory. If we were to have included those costs previously expensed as a component of cost of sales, our cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 would have been approximately $ 1.6 million higher, for a total cost of sales of $ 23.5 million. As a result, costs of sales related to sales of the 365-day product will initially reflect a lower average cost per unit over approximately the next quarter as the previous expensed inventory is fully exhausted.

In November 2024, the Company acquired the sensor insertion network assets of NPG to directly contract with healthcare providers under our Eon Care subsidiaries. The purchase price of $ 0.7 million was satisfied in exchange for the settlement of a portion of NPG’s outstanding accounts receivable balance. The total value of the sensor insertion network assets of $ 0.8 million includes the agreed-upon purchase price, the fair value of contingent consideration, and transaction costs. These intangible assets will allow us to further expand patient access to sensor insertion options and enhance convenience. The intangible assets will be amortized over a 5-year period. Over the next five years, the annual amortization expense for these finite life intangible assets will total approximately $ 0.8 million, as follows: less than $ 0.2 million in each of the years 2025- 2028 and $ 0.1 million in 2029.

Leases
The Company leases approximately 33,000 square feet of research and office space for its corporate headquarters under a non-cancelable operating lease. In May 2023, the Company amended our lease, extending the lease term through 2033, and obtained a tenant improvement allowance of $ 1.3 million. The Company accounted for the amendment as a lease modification and remeasured the ROU asset and lease liability as of the amendment date, which resulted in an increase of $ 2.5 million to the ROU asset, and an increase of $ 3.8 million to the lease liability. The Company has one option to extend the term for an additional period of five years beginning on June 1, 2033. The rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis through the end of the lease term, excluding option renewals. The difference between the straight-line rent amounts and amounts payable under the lease is recorded as deferred rent.
On July 31, 2019, the Company entered into a non-cancellable operating lease agreement for approximately 30,500 square feet of office space commencing on September 2, 2019 and expiring in 2023. The Company did not have any lease related payments made to the lessor before the commitment date, lease incentives received from the lessor or initial direct cost adjustments to be added to the initial measurement of the liability. This facility was decommissioned in 2021 and an impairment charge of $ 0.5 million was recorded. The Company continued to make lease payments through the lease expiration date.
Operating lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $ 0.9 million and 0.8 million, respectively.

Notes Payable and Stock Purchase Warrants
Term Loans
Loan and Security Agreement
On September 8, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. and its managed fund (collectively, the “Lenders"), pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to make available to Senseonics up to $ 50.0 million in senior secured term loans (the “Term Loan Facility”), consisting of (i) an initial term loan of $ 25.0 million (the “Tranche 1 Loan”), which was funded on the Effective Date and (ii) two additional tranches of term loans in the amounts of up to $ 10.0 million (the “Tranche 2 Loan”) and $ 15.0 million (the “Tranche 3 Loan”), respectively, which will become available to Senseonics upon Senseonics’ satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement. In December 2023, the Company met the terms and conditions to draw on Tranche 2 Loan and the loan was funded on January 2, 2024 in an amount of $ 10.0 million. The loans under the Loan and Security Agreement mature on September 1, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”).
103
The loans under the Loan and Security Agreement bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 1.40 % and (ii) 9.90 %. Borrowings under the Loan and Security Agreement are repayable in monthly interest-only payments through (a) initially, September 1, 2026 and (b) if the Company satisfies the Interest Only Extension Conditions (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement), the Maturity Date. After the interest-only payment period, borrowings under the Loan and Security Agreement are repayable in equal monthly payments of principal and accrued interest until the Maturity Date.
At the Company’s option, the Company may prepay all or any portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Loan and Security Agreement, subject to a prepayment fee equal to (a) 3.0 % of the principal amount being prepaid if the prepayment occurs within one year of the Effective Date, 2.0 % of the principal amount being prepaid if the prepayment occurs during the second year following the Effective Date, and 1.00 % of the principal amount being prepaid if the prepayment occurs more than two years after the Effective Date and prior to the Maturity Date. In addition, the Company paid $ 425,000 in facility fees upon drawing Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 loans. The Company will pay additional facility charges in connection with any borrowing of the Tranche 3 Loan, in the amount of 0.50 % of the amount. The Loan and Security Agreement also provides for an end of term fee in an amount equal to 6.95 % of the aggregate principal amount of loan advances actually made under the Loan and Security Agreement, which fee is due and payable on the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) the date the Company prepays the outstanding loans in full, and (iii) the date that the secured obligations become due and payable. The end of term fee is accreted to interest expense over the term of the loans.
The Company’s obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement are secured, by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of its assets. The Loan and Security Agreement contains a minimum cash covenant that requires the Company to hold unrestricted cash equal to 30 % of the outstanding loan amount under the Loan and Security Agreement. The Loan and Security Agreement also contains a performance covenant, commencing on July 1, 2024, that requires the Company to generate net product revenue on a trailing six-month basis in excess of specified percentage for applicable measuring periods. The performance covenant shall be waived at any time in which either (a) the Company’s market capitalization exceeds $ 550.0 million and the Company maintains unrestricted cash equal to at least 50 % of the total amounts funded, or (b) the Company maintains unrestricted cash equal to at least 80 % of the total amounts funded
In addition, the Loan and Security Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, corporate changes, dispositions, prepayment of other indebtedness, and dividends and other distributions, subject to certain exceptions. The Loan and Security Agreement also contains events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of covenants, material adverse effect, breach of representations and warranties, cross-default to material indebtedness, bankruptcy-related defaults, judgment defaults, revocation of certain government approvals, and the occurrence of certain adverse events. Following an event of default and any applicable cure period, a default interest rate equal to the then-applicable interest rate plus 4.0 % may be applied to the outstanding amount, and the Lenders will have the right to accelerate all amounts outstanding under the Loan and Security Agreement, in addition to other remedies available to them as secured creditors of the Company. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2024.
In addition, in connection with the issuance of the Tranche 1 Loan the Company issued warrants to the Lenders (collectively, the “Tranche 1 Warrants”) to acquire an aggregate of 832,362 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.6007 per share (the “Tranche 1 Warrant Shares”). The Warrants may be exercised through the earlier of (i) the seventh anniversary of the Effective Date and (ii) the consummation of certain acquisition transactions involving the Company, as set forth in the Tranche 1 Warrants. The number of Tranche 1 Warrant Shares for which the Tranche 1 Warrants are exercisable and the associated exercise price are subject to certain customary proportional adjustments for fundamental events, including stock splits and reverse stock splits, as set forth in the Tranche 1 Warrants. The proceeds from the Loan and Security Agreement were allocated between the Tranche 1 Loan and the Tranche 1 Warrants based on their respective fair value of $ 25.0 million and $ 0.4 million, and the amount allocated to the Tranche 1 Warrants was recorded in equity resulting in a debt discount to the Tranche 1 Loan that is being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the loan agreement using the effective interest method. On January 2,
104
2024, in connection with the issuance of the Tranche 2 Loan the Company issued additional warrants to the Lenders (collectively, the “Tranche 2 Warrants”) to acquire an aggregate of 347,887 shares at an exercise price of $ 0.5749 per share (the “Tranche 2 Warrant Shares”). The Company estimated the fair value of the Tranche 2 Warrants as of the grant date to be $ 0.1 million and classified the full amount in equity.
In connection with Loan and Security Agreement, the Company incurred $ 1.1 million in debt issuance costs and debt discounts which are netted against the principal balance of the initial term loan and amortized as interest expense over the term of the initial term loan using an effective interest rate of 12.92 %. The fair value of the Company’s Loan and Security Agreement was $ 37.0 million as of December 31, 2024.
Pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company also agreed to issue additional seven year term warrants upon the funding of the Tranche 3 Loan, which warrants would be exercisable for an aggregate number of shares equal to 2.0 % of the funded loan amount divided by the exercise price equal to the three-day volume-weighted average price at the time of the advance.
Stock Purchase Warrants
Securities Purchase Agreement
On March 13, 2023, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with PHC, the Company issued and sold to PHC in a private placement a warrant (the “Purchase Warrant”) to purchase 15,425,750 shares of common stock (the “Purchase Warrant Shares”). The Purchase Warrant is a “pre-funded” warrant with a nominal exercise price of $ 0.001 per Purchase Warrant Share. On the private placement closing date, the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $ 15.0 million, before deducting private placement expenses payable by the Company. All or any part of the Purchase Warrant is exercisable by the holder at any time and from time to time.
The Company determined that the Purchase Warrant shall be classified as equity in accordance with ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC Topic 815. At issuance, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the Purchase Warrant in the amount of $ 14.3 million as additional paid-in-capital in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Because PHC was an existing stockholder of the Company at the time of the transaction, the $ 0.7 million excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the Purchase Warrant was recognized as an equity transaction and recorded as a capital contribution made by PHC to the Company as additional paid-in-capital in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Additionally, on March 13, 2023, the Company entered into the Exchange Agreement with PHC, pursuant to which PHC agreed to exchange (the “PHC Exchange”) its $ 35.0 million aggregate principal amount of the PHC Notes, including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, for a warrant (the “PHC Exchange Warrant”) to purchase up to 68,525,311 shares of common stock (the “PHC Exchange Warrant Shares”). The PHC Exchange Warrant is a “pre-funded” warrant with a nominal exercise price of $ 0.001 per PHC Exchange Warrant Share. All or any part of the PHC Exchange Warrant is exercisable by the holder at any time and from time to time. The number of PHC Exchange Warrant Shares represents the number of shares of common stock previously issuable upon conversion of the PHC Notes, in accordance with the original terms of the notes, including a number of shares in respect of accrued and unpaid interest through the closing date, plus additional shares with a value of $ 675,000 reflecting a portion of the future interest payments forgone by PHC. On March 31, 2023 (6:00 am Japan Standard Time on April 1, 2023), the PHC Exchange was consummated, and the Company issued the PHC Exchange Warrant in consideration for the cancellation of the PHC Notes.
The Company determined that the PHC Exchange Warrant shall be classified as equity in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815. At March 31, 2023, the Company recorded the estimated fair value of the PHC Exchange Warrant in the amount of $ 48.6 million as additional paid-in-capital in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
105
As of December 31, 2024, the Purchase Warrant and the PHC Exchange Warrant remained unexercised and outstanding. As they are prefunded warrants, the Company included the entirety of the warrant shares as weighted average outstanding shares in the calculation of its basic earnings per share.
Convertible Notes
PHC Notes
On August 9, 2020, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with PHC, as the purchaser (together with the other purchasers from time to time party thereto, the “Note Purchasers”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as collateral agent. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company borrowed $ 35.0 million in aggregate principal through the issuance and sale of PHC Notes on August 14, 2020 (the “Closing Date”). The Company also issued 2,941,176 shares of its common stock, $ 0.001 par value per share to PHC as a financing fee (the “Financing Fee Shares”) on the Closing Date. The Financing Fee Shares were recorded as debt discount in the amount of $ 1.5 million.
The PHC Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and were guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Senseonics, Incorporated. Interest at the annual rate of 9.5 % was payable semi-annually in cash or, at the Company’s option, payment in kind. The interest rate decreased to 8.0 % in April 2022 as a result of the Company having obtained FDA approval for the 180-day E3 Eversense system for marketing in the United States. The maturity date for the PHC Notes is October 31, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”). The obligations under the PHC Notes were secured by substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiary’s assets.
Each $ 1,000 of principal of the PHC Notes (including any interest added thereto as payment in kind) was convertible into 1,901.7956 of shares of the Company’s stock, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $ 0.53 per share, subject to specified anti-dilution adjustments, including adjustments for the Company’s issuance of equity securities on or prior to April 30, 2022 below the conversion price. In addition, following a notice of redemption or certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, the Company would have been required, in certain circumstances, to increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its PHC Notes in connection with such notice of redemption or corporate event. In certain circumstances, the Company would have been required to pay cash in lieu of delivering make whole shares unless the Company obtained stockholder approval to issue such shares.
Subject to specified conditions, on or after October 31, 2022, the PHC Notes would have become redeemable by the Company if the closing sale price of the common stock exceed 275 % of the conversion price for a specified period of time and subject to certain conditions upon 10 days prior written notice at a cash redemption price equal to the then outstanding principal amount (including any payment in kind interest which has been added to such amount), plus any accrued but unpaid interest. On or after October 31, 2023, the PHC Notes would have been redeemable by the Company upon 10 days prior written notice at a cash redemption price equal to the then outstanding principal amount (including any payment in kind interest which has been added to such amount), plus any accrued but unpaid interest, plus a call premium of 130 % if redeemed at least six months prior to the Maturity Date or a call premium of 125 % if redeemed within six months of the Maturity Date.
The Note Purchase Agreement contained customary terms and covenants, including financial covenants, such as operating within an approved budget and achieving minimum revenue and liquidity targets, and negative covenants, such as limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, asset transfers, certain investing activities and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. Most of these restrictions were subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Note Purchase Agreement also contained customary events of default, after which the PHC Notes would be due and payable immediately, including defaults related to payment compliance, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant compliance, material adverse changes, bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings, cross defaults to certain other agreements, judgments against the Company, change of control or delisting events, termination of any guaranty, governmental approvals, and lien priority.
The Company also had the option to sell and issue PHC up to $ 15.0 million of convertible preferred stock on or before December 31, 2022 (the “PHC Option”), which was initially contingent upon obtaining FDA approval for the
106
180-day Eversense E3 product for marketing in the United States before such date, and which the Company successfully obtained in February 2022. The PHC option was not exercised and expired on December 31, 2022.
The Note Purchase Agreement also contained several provisions requiring bifurcation as a separate derivative liability including an embedded conversion feature, mandatory prepayment upon event of default that constitutes a breach of the minimum revenue financial covenant, optional redemption upon an event of default, change in interest rate after PMA approval and default interest upon an event of default. On the date of issuance, the Company recorded the fair value of the embedded features in the amount of $ 25.8 million as a derivative liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The derivative was adjusted to fair value at each reporting period, with the change in the fair value recorded in change in fair value of derivatives that is a component of other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
In connection with the issuance of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company incurred $ 2.9 million in debt issuance costs and debt discounts. The associated debt issuance costs were recorded as a contra liability in the amount of $ 1.4 million and are deferred and amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the notes at an effective interest rate of 29.19 %. There were no conversions of the PHC Notes prior to the exchange of the PHC Notes for the PHC Exchange Warrant described above.
As described above, the PHC Exchange was consummated on March 31, 2023, whereby PHC exchanged the PHC Notes in $ 35.0 million principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon for the PHC Exchange Warrant. On March 31, 2023, the Company was released from its obligation under the PHC Notes.
Upon execution of the PHC Exchange Agreement, the exercise of the original conversion feature of the PHC Notes became remote. Accordingly, the Company remeasured the embedded derivative to its fair value of $ 0 . The Company recognized a change in fair value of the embedded derivative of $ 44.2 million in the caption “Exchange related gain (loss), net” that is a component of other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
The Company accounted for the PHC Exchange as an extinguishment of the PHC Notes, and thus, it derecognized the PHC Notes in its consolidated balance sheets and recognized a loss of $ 25.4 million as the difference between the carrying value plus accrued interest of the PHC Notes of $ 23.2 million and the $ 48.6 million fair value of the PHC Exchange Warrant as an extinguishment loss in the caption “Exchange related gain (loss), net” that is a component of other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of the PHC Exchange, the Company recognized a total net gain on exchange of the PHC notes of $ 18.8 million representing the gain on change in the fair value of the PHC Notes conversion feature recognized as an embedded derivative and the loss on extinguishment of the PHC Notes in exchange for the PHC Exchange Warrant.
2025 Notes
In July 2019, the Company issued $ 82.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes. The 2025 Notes are general, unsecured, senior subordinated obligations of the Company and bear interest at a rate of 5.25 % per year, payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2020. The 2025 Notes matured on January 15, 2025 and the Company repaid the outstanding principal and accrued interest.
The Company used $ 37.9 million of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Notes to repurchase $ 37.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 2023 Notes, at a purchase price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
The 2025 Notes are convertible, at the option of the holders, into shares of the Company’s common stock, at an initial conversion rate of 757.5758 shares per $ 1,000 principal amount of the 2025 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ 1.32 per share).
The Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2025 Notes, at its option, if (1) the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 150 % of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days
107
(whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption and (2) a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2025 Notes is effective and available for use and is expected to remain effective and available for use during the redemption period as of the date of the redemption notice date. The redemption price will be equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If the Company undergoes a fundamental change, such as a merger, sale, greater than 50% ownership change, liquidation, dissolution or delisting, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2025 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, following a notice of redemption or certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2025 Notes in connection with such notice of redemption or corporate event. In certain circumstances, the Company will be required to pay cash in lieu of delivering make whole shares unless the Company obtains stockholder approval to issue shares.
The 2025 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Senseonics, Incorporated. The subsidiary guarantor is 100 % owned, the guarantee is full and unconditional and joint and several and the parent company has no independent assets or operations and any subsidiaries of the parent company other than the subsidiary guarantor are minor.
In connection with the issuance of the 2025 Notes, the Company incurred $ 4.3 million in debt issuance costs and debt discounts. Several note holders of the 2025 Notes were also note holders of the 2023 Notes, and as a result, these transactions qualified as loan modifications. The associated debt issuance costs were allocated between the portion of 2025 Notes purchased by new note holders, and of 2025 Notes purchased by existing 2023 Note holders. Loan modifications require third-party debt related costs to be expensed immediately, whereas fees paid to lenders of the modified loans are deferred. The third-party costs associated with the new note holders were also deferred as discounts that are amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the notes.
The 2025 Notes also contained an embedded conversion option requiring bifurcation as a separate derivative liability, along with the fundamental change make-whole provision and the cash settled fundamental make-whole shares provision. The Company recorded the fair value of the embedded features in the amount of $ 38.3 million as a debt discount and derivative liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging . The derivative was adjusted to fair value at each reporting period, with the change in the fair value recorded to other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
The conversion feature does not have current observable inputs such as recent trading prices (Level 3) and are measured at fair value using the binomial option pricing model and incorporate management’s assumptions for probabilities of conversion occurrence through maturity, stock price, volatility, risky (bond) rate, credit spread and recovery rates.
On April 21, 2020, $ 24.0 million in principal on the 2025 Notes were settled pursuant to an exchange agreement. Between September 3, 2020 and January 27, 2021, $ 6.8 million in aggregate principal on the 2025 Notes were converted into 5,152,259 shares of common stock.
On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with a limited number of holders (the “Noteholders”) of the Company’s currently outstanding 2025 Notes. Under the terms of the Exchange Agreements, the Noteholders agreed to exchange with the Company (the “Exchanges”) up to $ 30.8 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes (the “Exchanged Notes”) for a combination of $ 7.5 million of cash and newly issued shares of common stock (the “Exchange Shares”). The number of Exchange Shares was determined based upon the volume-weighted average price per share of the common stock during a 15-day averaging period commencing on August 11, 2023 and ending August 31, 2023. Based on the volume-weighted average price per share of the common stock during the averaging period, a total of 35.1 million shares of
108
common stock were issued in the Exchanges. The Exchanges were settled on the initial share issuance date of August 14, 2023 and the final settlement date of September 5, 2023.
The Company accounted for the Exchanges as an extinguishment of the Exchanged Notes and the associated embedded derivative and recognized a loss of $ 4.6 million in the caption “Exchange related gain (loss), net” that is a component of other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The extinguishment loss represents the difference between (i) the carrying value of the Exchanged Notes (inclusive of the fair value of the embedded derivative) and (ii) the sum of $ 7.5 million cash payment, the fair value of the Exchanged Shares, and transaction costs incurred in the Exchange.
Following the Exchanges, approximately $ 20.4 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes remained outstanding. The remaining unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs were amortized as interest expense over the term of the loan at an effective interest rate of 15.54 %. The fair value of the Company’s 2025 Notes, excluding the embedded features, was $ 20.9 million as of December 31, 2024 and $ 19.1 million at December 31, 2023. The fair value of the derivative at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $ 0.0 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively. On January 15, 2025, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and accrued interest in full and the derivative was unexercised upon maturity.
2023 Notes
In January 2018, the Company issued $ 50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes. In February 2018, the Company issued an additional $ 3.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes, pursuant to the partial exercise of the overallotment option by the underwriter. The 2023 Notes were general, unsecured, senior subordinated obligations and bear interest at a rate of 5.25 % per year, payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2023 Notes, after deducting transaction costs, were $ 50.7 million. The Company paid interest semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2018. In July 2019, the Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Notes to repurchase $ 37.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2023 Notes.
Each $ 1,000 of principal of the 2023 Notes were initially convertible into 294.1176 shares of the Company’s common stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ 3.40 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. Holders may convert at any time prior to February 1, 2023. Holders who convert on or after the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the 2023 Notes but prior to February 1, 2021, may also be entitled to receive, under certain circumstances, an interest make-whole payment payable in shares of common stock. If specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date, the Company will increase the conversion rate pursuant to the make-whole fundamental change provision for a holder who elects to convert their 2023 Notes in connection with such an event in certain circumstances. Additionally, if a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders of the 2023 Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2023 Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100 % of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest.
The Company bifurcated the embedded conversion option, along with the interest make-whole provision and make-whole fundamental change provision, and in January 2018 recorded the embedded features as a debt discount and derivative liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at its initial fair value of $ 17.3 million. Additionally, the Company incurred transaction costs of $ 2.2 million. The debt discount and transaction costs were amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2023 Notes at an effective interest rate of 9.30 %. The derivative was adjusted to fair value at each reporting period, with the change in the fair value recorded to other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. On January 31, 2023, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and accrued interest in full. The derivative was unexercised upon maturity and the fair value in the amount of $ 0.02 million was recognized as an extinguishment gain in the caption “Other income (expense)” in Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed U.S. treasury yields for a period consistent with the expected term of the Company’s employee and non-employee stock options. The expected term is the period of time for which the stock-based options are expected to be outstanding. The expected term is determined using the “simplified method” which is defined as the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. The Company does not pay a dividend, and is not expected to pay a dividend in the foreseeable future.

The Company utilizes comparable public companies’ volatility rates as a proxy of its expected volatility for purposes of the Black-Scholes Model. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded monthly and is adjusted periodically for actual forfeitures as they occur.

The net change in valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was a net increase of $ 19.9 million and $ 16.3 million, respectively.
The increase in valuation allowance is primarily due to deferred tax assets generated from net operating losses, research and experimental costs capitalized, and tax credits generated in 2024. This increase in valuation allowance is based on management's assessment that it is not more likely than not that the Company will realize these deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2024, the Company had gross federal and state NOL carryforwards of $ 703.3 million and $ 89.7 million, respectively and research and experimental credit carryforwards of $ 17.1 million. Research and experimental credit carryforwards will expire in varying amounts between 2025 and 2044. Federal NOL carryforwards in the amount of $ 193.3 million will expire in varying amounts between 2025 and 2037. Federal NOL carryforwards incurred in tax years 2018 and forward have an indefinite carryforward period, although limited to eighty percent of taxable income annually. State NOLs have various expiration dates beginning in 2032. Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, certain substantial changes in the Company’s ownership may result in a limitation on the amount of NOL carryforwards and research and experimental credit carryforwards which can be available in future years.

During 2023 and 2024, the Company incurred no significant amounts related to penalties and interest for filed tax returns due to taxing authorities.
If recognized, the entire amount of gross unrecognized tax benefit would favorably affect the effective income tax rate, although, due to the Company’s valuation allowance there would be no net impact. The Company does not expect a significant change in its unrecognized tax positions to occur in the next twelve months.
The Company’s U.S. Federal and state income tax returns from 2004 to 2024 remain subject to examination by the tax authorities. The Company’s prior tax years remain open for examination, even though the statute of limitations has expired, due to the net operating losses and credits carried forward for use in prospective years.

18. Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability, such as risks inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The fair value of money market funds and other investments classified as cash and cash equivalents are based on period-end statements supplied by the various banks and brokers that hold the majority of the funds.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The valuation technique used to measure the fair value of the Company’s embedded derivative instruments is valued using the binomial lattice model to estimate the fair value of the notes. Using this lattice model, the Company values the embedded derivative using the “with” and “without” approach to determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives associated with the convertible note. Under this approach, the instrument is valued “with” and “without” the bifurcated feature and the fair value of the derivative is the difference in value between the two scenarios. The lattice model incorporates assumptions such as management’s assumptions for probabilities of conversion occurrence through maturity, stock price, volatility, risk-free rate, estimated credit spread, bond recovery rates and trade data when available.

Significant changes to these assumptions would result in increases/decreases to the fair value of the liability.
The Company reviews the fair value hierarchy classification on a quarterly basis. Changes in the ability to observe valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers into and out of levels within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the actual event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer occurs. When a determination is made to classify an asset or liability within Level 3, the determination is based upon the significance of the unobservable inputs to the overall fair value measurement. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
19. Segment Information
The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment, which also represents one reportable segment which derives its revenues from diabetes products and services. Operating segments are defined
120
as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company CODM, its Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company’s operations on a consolidated basis for the purpose of allocating resources.
The CODM assesses performance for the segment based on net loss, which is reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and uses the financial information in deciding on how to invest into the Company. The measure of segment assets reported on the balance sheets as total assets.
The table below summarizes the significant expense categories regularly reviewed by the CODM for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

20. Litigation
From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for litigation and claims when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company has evaluated claims in accordance with the accounting guidance for contingencies that it deems both probable and reasonably estimable, and for the periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 has no such contingencies.
21. Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated all subsequent events through the filing date of this Form 10-K with the SEC, to ensure that this filing includes appropriate disclosure of events both recognized in the financial statements as of December 31, 2024, and events which occurred subsequently but were not recognized in the financial statements. Except as described below there were no other subsequent events which required recognition, adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.
As previously disclosed in Note 13, on January 15, 2025, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and accrued interest for the 2025 Notes in the full amount of $ 20.9 million. The conversion option expired unexercised.
