MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
−Removed: The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements regarding our business development plans, clinical trials,
−Removed: regulatory reviews, timing, strategies, expectations, anticipated expenses levels, projected profits, business prospects and positioning with respect to market, demographic and pricing trends, business outlook, technology spending and various
−Removed: other matters (including contingent liabilities and obligations and changes in accounting policies, standards and interpretations) and express our current intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies or predictions.
−Removed: These forward-looking
−Removed: statements are based on a number of assumptions and currently available information and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.
−Removed: Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a
−Removed: result of various factors, including those set forth under the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
−Removed: The following discussion should be read in
−Removed: conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
−Removed: We are a shock wave technology company using a patented system of noninvasive, high-energy, acoustic shock waves for regenerative medicine and other applications.
−Removed: Our initial focus is regenerative medicine
−Removed: utilizing noninvasive, acoustic shock waves to produce a biological response resulting in the body healing itself through the repair and regeneration of tissue, musculoskeletal, and vascular structures.
−Removed: Our lead regenerative product in the United States is the dermaPACE ® device, used for treating diabetic foot ulcers, which was
−Removed: subject to two double-blinded, randomized Phase III clinical studies.
−Removed: On December 28, 2017, the FDA granted the Company’s request to classify the dermaPACE ® System
−Removed: as a Class II device via the de novo process.
−Removed: As a result of this decision, the Company was able to immediately market the product for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers as described in the de novo request, subject to the general control provisions of the FD&C Act and the special controls identified in this order.
−Removed: On August 6, 2020, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement” or “Acquisition”) with Celularity Inc.
−Removed: (“Celularity”) pursuant to which we acquired Celularity’s
−Removed: UltraMIST® assets (“UltraMIST®” or the “Assets”).
−Removed: The UltraMIST® System provides through a fluid mist a low-frequency, non-contact, and pain free ultrasound energy deep inside the wound bed that promotes healing from within.
−Removed: The ultrasound
−Removed: acoustic waves promote healing by reducing inflammation and bacteria in the wound bed, while also increasing the growth of new blood vessels to the area.
−Removed: The UltraMIST® System treatment must be administered by a healthcare professional.
−Removed: proprietary technology has been cleared by the U.S.
−Removed: Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the promotion of wound healing through wound cleansing and maintenance debridement combined with ultrasound energy deposited inside the wound that
−Removed: stimulated tissue regeneration.
−Removed: In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, on August 6, 2020, we entered into a license and marketing agreement with Celularity pursuant to which Celularity granted to the Company a
−Removed: license to the Celularity wound care biologic products, Biovance® and Interfyl® (the “License Agreement”).
−Removed: The License Agreement provides the Company with an exclusive license to use, market, distribute and sell Biovance® in the “Field” and
−Removed: “Territory” (each as defined in the License Agreement), and a non-exclusive license to use, market, distribute and sell Interfyl® in the Field in the Territory.
−Removed: The License Agreement has an initial five-year term, after which it automatically
−Removed: renews for additional one-year periods, unless either party gives written notice at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the current term.
−Removed: In May 2021, the Company received notification that it is not in compliance with the Biovance portion
−Removed: of the License Agreement with Celularity.
−Removed: Our portfolio of healthcare products and product candidates activate biologic signaling and angiogenic responses, including new vascularization and microcirculatory improvement, helping to restore the body’s normal
−Removed: healing processes and regeneration.
−Removed: We intend to apply our Pulsed Acoustic Cellular Expression (PACE ® ) technology in wound healing, orthopedic, plastic/cosmetic and
−Removed: cardiac conditions.
−Removed: The Company is marketing its dermaPACE ® System for treatment usage
−Removed: in the United States and will continue to generate revenue from sales of the European Conformity Marking (CE Mark) devices and accessories in Europe, Canada, Asia, and Asia/Pacific.
−Removed: The Company generates revenue streams from product
−Removed: sales, licensing transactions, dermaPACE ® treatments and other activities, and with its recent acquisition of the UltraMIST® assets, SANUWAVE now combines two highly
−Removed: complementary and market-cleared energy transfer technologies used in the dermaPACE® and UltraMIST® Systems and two human tissue biologic products (Biovance® and Interfyl®), which creates a platform of scale with an end-to-end product offering in
−Removed: the advanced wound care market.
−Removed: Our lead product candidate for the global wound care market, dermaPACE ® , has received FDA clearance for commercial use to treat
−Removed: diabetic foot ulcers in the United States and the CE Mark allowing for commercial use on acute and chronic defects of the skin and subcutaneous soft tissue.
−Removed: We believe we have demonstrated that our patented technology is safe and effective in
−Removed: stimulating healing in chronic conditions of the foot and the elbow through our United States FDA Class III Premarket Approvals (“PMAs”) approved OssaTron® device, and in the stimulation of bone and chronic tendonitis regeneration in the
−Removed: musculoskeletal environment through the utilization of our OssaTron, Evotron®, and orthoPACE® devices in Europe and Asia.
−Removed: We are focused on developing our Pulsed Acoustic Cellular Expression (PACE) technology to activate healing in:
−Removed: wound conditions, including diabetic foot ulcers, venous and arterial ulcers, pressure sores, burns and other skin eruption conditions;
−Removed: orthopedic applications, such as eliminating chronic pain in joints from trauma, arthritis or tendons/ligaments inflammation, speeding the healing of fractures (including nonunion or delayed-union
−Removed: conditions), improving bone density in osteoporosis, fusing bones in the extremities and spine, and other potential sports injury applications;
−Removed: plastic/cosmetic applications such as cellulite smoothing, graft and transplant acceptance, skin tightening, scarring and other potential aesthetic uses;
−Removed: cardiac applications for removing plaque due to atherosclerosis improving heart muscle performance.
−Removed: In addition to healthcare uses, our high-energy, acoustic pressure shock waves, due to their powerful pressure gradients and localized cavitational effects, may have applications in secondary
−Removed: and tertiary oil exploitation, for cleaning industrial waters, for sterilizing food liquids and finally for maintenance of industrial installations by disrupting biofilms formation.
−Removed: Our business approach will be through licensing and/or
−Removed: partnership opportunities.
−Removed: The worldwide spread of the COVID-19 virus is expected to result in a global slowdown of economic activity which is likely to decrease demand for a broad variety of products, including from our
−Removed: We have experienced a disruption of our supply channels which will continue for an unknown period of time until the global supply chain can return to the pre- disease status.
−Removed: Also, the pandemic may cause continued or additional actions
−Removed: by hospitals and clinics such as limiting elective procedures and treatments and limiting clinical trial activities and data monitoring.
−Removed: These factors have had and we expect that they will continue to have a negative impact on our sales and our
−Removed: results of operations, the size and duration of which we are currently unable to predict.
−Removed: Clinical Trials and Marketing
−Removed: The FDA granted approval of our Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) to conduct two double-blinded, randomized clinical trials utilizing our lead device product for the global wound care market, the dermaPACE ® device, in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.
−Removed: On December 28, 2017, the FDA determined that the criteria at section 513(a)(1)(A) of (B) of the FD&C Act were
−Removed: met and granted the de novo clearance classifying dermaPACE ® as Class II and available to be marketed immediately.
−Removed: Also, our dermaPACE ® device has received the European CE Mark approval to treat acute and chronic defects of the skin and
−Removed: subcutaneous soft tissue, such as in the treatment of pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, burns, and traumatic and surgical wounds.
−Removed: The dermaPACE ® is also
−Removed: licensed for sale in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Mexico, and South Korea.
−Removed: We are actively marketing the dermaPACE ® to the European Community, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and Asia/Pacific, utilizing distributors
−Removed: in select countries.
−Removed: Financial Overview
−Removed: Since inception in 2005, our operations have primarily been funded from the sale of capital stock, notes payable, and convertible debt securities.
−Removed: We expect to devote substantial resources for the commercialization
−Removed: of the dermaPACE ® System and will continue to research and develop the non-medical uses of the PACE technology, both of which will require additional capital
−Removed: We incurred a net loss of $27.3 million and $30.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
−Removed: These factors and the events of default on the notes payable create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
−Removed: to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the financial statement issuance date.
−Removed: Our operating losses create substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
−Removed: Although no assurances can be given, we believe that potential additional issuances of equity, debt or other potential
−Removed: financing may provide the necessary funding for us to continue as a going concern for the next year.
−Removed: See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further information regarding our financial condition.
−Removed: The continuation of our business is dependent upon raising additional capital to fund operations.
−Removed: Management’s plans are to obtain additional capital in 2022 and 2023 through
−Removed: investments by strategic partners for market opportunities, which may include strategic partnerships or licensing arrangements, or raise capital through the conversion of outstanding warrants, the issuance of common or preferred stock,
−Removed: securities convertible into common stock, or secured or unsecured debt.
−Removed: These possibilities, to the extent available, may be on terms that result in significant dilution to our existing shareholders.
−Removed: In addition, there can be no assurances that
−Removed: our plans to obtain additional capital will be successful on the terms or timeline we expect, or at all.
−Removed: Although no assurances can be given, management believes that potential additional issuances of equity or other potential financing
−Removed: transactions as discussed above should provide the necessary funding for us.
−Removed: If these efforts are unsuccessful, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds through
−Removed: financing transactions with unfavorable terms.
−Removed: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate
−Removed: continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
−Removed: The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily
−Removed: purport to represent realizable or settlement values.
−Removed: The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
−Removed: Our consolidated financial
−Removed: statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
−Removed: Since our inception, we have incurred losses from operations each year.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $183.9 million.
−Removed: Although the size and timing of our future operating losses are
−Removed: subject to significant uncertainty, we anticipate that our operating losses will continue over the next few years as we incur expenses related to commercialization of our dermaPACE ® system for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in the United States.
−Removed: If we are able to successfully commercialize, market and distribute the dermaPACE ®
−Removed: system, then we hope to partially or completely offset these losses in the future.
−Removed: Although no assurances can be given, we believe that potential additional issuances of equity, debt or other potential financing, as discussed above, may provide
−Removed: the necessary funding for us to continue as a going concern for the next year.
−Removed: We cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing and costs of the efforts necessary to complete the development and approval of, or the period in which material net cash flows are expected to be generated from, any
−Removed: of our products, due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing and marketing products, including the uncertainty of:
−Removed: the scope, rate of progress and cost of our clinical trials;
−Removed: future clinical trial results;
−Removed: the cost and timing of regulatory approvals;
−Removed: the establishment of successful marketing, sales and distribution channels and partnerships, including our efforts to expand our marketing, sales and distribution reach through joint ventures and other contractual arrangements;
−Removed: the cost and timing associated with establishing reimbursement for our products;
−Removed: the effects of competing technologies and market developments;
−Removed: the industry demand and patient wellness behavior.
−Removed: Any failure to complete the development of our product candidates in a timely manner, or any failure to successfully market and commercialize our product candidates, would have a material adverse effect on our
−Removed: operations, financial position and liquidity.
−Removed: A discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with us and our business are set forth under the section entitled “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business”.
−Removed: The worldwide spread of the COVID-19 virus is expected to result in a global slowdown of economic activity which is likely to decrease demand for a broad variety of products, including from our customers, while
−Removed: also disrupting supply channels and marketing activities for an unknown period of time until the disease is contained.
−Removed: Also, the pandemic may cause continued or additional actions by hospitals and clinics such as limiting elective procedures and
−Removed: treatments and limiting clinical trial activities and data monitoring.
−Removed: We expect all of these factors to have a negative impact on our sales and our results of operations, the size and duration of which we are currently unable to predict.
−Removed: Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
−Removed: The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
−Removed: accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
−Removed: The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
−Removed: On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to the estimate of the fair value of embedded conversion options and warrants.
−Removed: We base our estimates on authoritative literature and pronouncements, historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
−Removed: the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
−Removed: Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
−Removed: The results of our operations for any historical period
−Removed: are not necessarily indicative of the results of our operations for any future period.
−Removed: In addition, there are other items within our financial statements that require estimation but are not deemed critical as defined above.
−Removed: Changes in these and other
−Removed: items could still have a material impact upon our financial statements.
−Removed: The following accounting policies are deemed critical.
−Removed: Revenue Recognition
−Removed: We recognize revenue in accordance with two different
−Removed: Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) standards:
−Removed: 1) Topic 606 and 2) Topic 842.
−Removed: In accordance with ASC 606, we apply the following the five-step model:
−Removed: (1) identify the contract(s)
−Removed: with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the
−Removed: Company satisfies a performance obligation.
−Removed: We recognize revenue primarily from the following types of contracts under ASC 606:
−Removed: (1) sales of products, accessories and parts, (2) licensing fees, (3) other revenue, (4) shipping and handling
−Removed: The company also recognizes rental revenue under ASC 842 where we have determined that these are operating leases and we recognize the revenue in the period where it is billed to the customer.
−Removed: However, under the pay per use agreement,
−Removed: the Company will earn revenues based on the number of times the device is used.
−Removed: Under the guidance Lease payments based on usage of the device are variable lease payments and should be recorded in the period in which the obligation for the
−Removed: payment is incurred.
−Removed: Derivative Liability’s from Embedded
−Removed: Conversion Options and Warrants – Under ASC Topic 815 the company classified certain convertible instruments as having embedded conversion options which qualified as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for.
−Removed: company also under ASC Topic 815 determined that certain warrants also qualified as derivative financial instruments.
−Removed: Various valuations models were used to estimate the fair value of these derivative financial instruments that are classified as
−Removed: derivative liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
−Removed: The models include subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates and as such are subject to uncertainty.
−Removed: The material assumptions for the selected
−Removed: subjective inputs have not changed for the reporting period, except for the expected volatility, which is estimated based on the actual volatility during the most recent historical period of time equal to the remaining life of the instruments.
−Removed: Results of Operations for the Years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020

+Added: Going Concern
+Added: The continuation of our business is dependent upon raising additional capital to fund operations.
+Added: We expect to devote substantial resources for the expansion and continued
+Added: commercialization of our UltraMist and PACE systems, which will require additional capital resources.
+Added: This, as well as the events of default on various notes payable, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
+Added: Management plans to obtain additional capital in 2023 through the conversion of outstanding warrants, issuance of common or preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock, or secured or unsecured debt.
+Added: These possibilities, to the
+Added: extent available, may be on terms that result in significant dilution to our existing stockholders.
+Added: Although no assurances can be given that our plans to obtain additional capital will be successful or on the terms or timeline we expect,
+Added: or at all, management believes that potential additional issuances of equity or other potential financing transactions, as discussed above, should provide the necessary funding for us over the next 12 months.
+Added: efforts are unsuccessful, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds through financing transactions with unfavorable terms.
+Added: The Company aims to achieve positive operating cash flows in the first half of 2023 as resources are devoted to grow revenue of the UltraMIST and PACE systems while managing

+Added: We have used various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S.
+Added: Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial
+Added: statements in Part II Item 8.
+Added: “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
+Added: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with U.S.
+Added: GAAP, requires us to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues,
+Added: and expenses.
+Added: These estimates reflect our best judgment about economic and market conditions and the potential effects on the valuation and/or carrying value of assets and liabilities based upon relevant information available.
+Added: We base our estimates
+Added: on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
+Added: from other sources.
+Added: The following accounting policies and estimates are deemed critical:
+Added: Litigation Contingencies
+Added: We may be involved in legal actions involving product liability, intellectual property and commercial disputes, tax disputes, and governmental proceedings and investigations.
+Added: The outcomes of these legal actions are not
+Added: completely within our control and may not be known for prolonged periods of time.
+Added: In some actions, the enforcement agencies or private claimants seek damages that could require significant expenditures or result in lost revenues or limit our ability
+Added: to conduct business in the applicable jurisdictions.
+Added: Estimating probable losses from our litigation and governmental proceedings is inherently difficult, particularly when the matters are in early procedural stages, with incomplete scientific facts
+Added: or legal discovery;
+Added: involve unsubstantiated or indeterminate claims for damages;
+Added: potentially involve penalties, fines, or punitive damages;
+Added: or could result in a change in business practice.
+Added: The Company records a liability in the consolidated
+Added: financial statements for loss contingencies when a loss is known or considered probable, and the amount may be reasonably estimated.
+Added: If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better
+Added: estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is accrued.
+Added: If a loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable, and may be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed.
+Added: Our significant legal proceedings are
+Added: discussed in Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements in Part II Item 8.
+Added: “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
+Added: Derivative Liability’s from Embedded Conversion Options and Warrants
+Added: The Company classified certain convertible instruments as having embedded conversion options which qualified as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for.
+Added: The Company also
+Added: determined that certain warrants also qualified as derivative financial instruments.
+Added: Various valuations models were used to estimate the fair value of these derivative financial instruments that are classified as derivative liabilities on the
+Added: consolidated balance sheets.
+Added: The models include subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates and as such are subject to uncertainty.
+Added: The material assumptions for the selected subjective inputs have not changed for
+Added: the reporting period, except for the expected volatility, which is estimated based on the actual volatility during the most recent historical period equal to the remaining life of the instruments.
+Added: Valuation of Intangible Assets and Goodwill
+Added: When we acquire a business, the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values at the acquisition date.
+Added: Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value
+Added: of net assets of acquired businesses.
+Added: Intangible assets primarily include patents, trademarks, and customer relationships.
+Added: Determining the fair value of intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination requires us to make significant
+Added: These estimates include the amount and timing of projected future cash flows of each project or technology, the discount rate used to discount those cash flows to present value, and the assessment of the asset’s life cycle.
+Added: The estimates
+Added: could be impacted by legal, technical, regulatory, economic, and competitive risks.
+Added: The test for impairment of goodwill requires us to make several estimates to determine the fair value of the goodwill.
+Added: Our estimates associated with the goodwill
+Added: impairment test are considered critical due to the amount of goodwill recorded on our consolidated balance sheets and the judgment required in determining fair value.
+Added: We assess the impairment of goodwill at the consolidated level annually.
+Added: test definite-lived intangible assets for impairment when an event occurs, or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount of the assets or asset group may be impaired.
+Added: We assess the impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets
+Added: annually and whenever an event occurs, or circumstances change that would indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired.
+Added: Our assessment for goodwill and intangible assets impairment is based on future cash flows that require significant judgment
+Added: with respect to future revenue and expense growth rates and other assumptions and estimates.
+Added: We use estimates that are consistent with the highest and best use of the assets based on a market participant’s view of the assets being evaluated.
