Overview

 

We are a medical technology company that is commercializing our PURE EP™ System which is an advanced signal acquisition and processing platform designed to provide essential diagnostic signals with high clinical value in all types of cardiac catheter ablations.

 

PURE EP™ is designed to address long-standing limitations that slow and disrupt cardiac catheter ablation procedures, such as environmental lab noise, signal saturation, slow signal recovery, and inaccurate display of fractionated potentials.

 

Cardiac catheter ablation is a procedure that involves delivery of energy through the tip of a catheter that scars or destroys heart tissue to correct heart rhythm disturbances. In August 2018, we received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) to market our PURE (Precise Uninterrupted Real-time evaluation of Electrograms) EP™ System.

 

Our Industry

 

Pharmacological, or medicine-based, therapies have traditionally been used as initial treatments for cardiac arrhythmias, but they often fail to adequately control the arrhythmia and may have significant side effects. Catheter ablation is now often recommended for an arrhythmia that medicine cannot control. Catheter ablation involves advancing several flexible catheters into the patient’s blood vessels, usually either in the femoral vein, internal jugular vein or subclavian vein. The catheters are then advanced towards the heart. Electrical impulses are then used to induce the arrhythmia and local heating or freezing is used to ablate (destroy) the abnormal tissue that is causing it. Catheter ablation for most of arrhythmias has a high success rate. For patients with complex arrhythmias like ventricular tachycardia (“VT”), a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia, and atrial fibrillation (“AF”), it is often necessary to perform multiple procedures to achieve success.

 

Catheter ablation is performed by an electrophysiologist (a specially trained cardiologist) in a specialized room in an EP lab. According to Health Research International, it is estimated that there are 8,163 global EP lab rooms performing catheter ablations, each typically with an EP recording system costing an average of $160,000. According to Global Market Insights, global cardiac ablation market value is projected to exceed $8.4 billion by 2028. The growing geriatric population is more susceptible to cardiovascular diseases and is expected to contribute to the number of ablation procedures in forthcoming years. According to the World Health Organization, the number of individuals aged 65 years and over is projected to increase from 524 million in 2010 to 1.5 billion by 2050. Aging typically leads to several changes in heart and blood vessels, which result in an increased risk of cardiac disorders. Accordingly, as cardiac ablation is a safe and highly effective treatment for irregular heart rhythm, we believe population aging will drive the product demand in future. Along with the expected increased disease burden, we believe that product advancements will drive the industry expansion. Industry players operating in the market are continuously developing newer technologies to offer more successful outcomes, and the expected significant investment in research and development activities by these players is anticipated to lead to new product launches, thereby expanding the product availability.

 

Catheter Ablation of AF and VT

 

Accurate recording of electrograms is critical to efficient mapping and ablation of complex arrhythmias. We believe that the clearer recordings and the very small amplitude of intracardiac signals--high frequency, small amplitude components in midst of large physiologic signals; signals important to characterize critical substrate, such as fractionated atrial and ventricular electrograms; and high-frequency, low-amplitude signals such as the Purkinje potentials—provided by the PURE EP™ System may improve outcomes during EP studies and ablation procedures for a variety of arrhythmias.

 

S-3

 

For patients who are candidates for ablation, an EP study is necessary to define the targeted sites for the ablation procedure. Two common, yet complex, conditions for which ablation procedures are performed are AF and VT. Most cardiac arrhythmias are well understood, and ablation simply requires destroying a small area of heart tissue possessing electrical abnormality. In contrast, complex arrhythmias, such as AF and VT, have complex pathophysiology and, because knowledge of their origins and mechanisms are incomplete, ablation treatments for these arrhythmias are largely empirical. Furthermore, the length of these procedures, which typically last from three to six hours, exposes the physician and staff to extensive radiation, requiring them to wear heavy lead vests. Consequently, ablating AF and VT has been regarded as being extremely difficult. Therefore, access to these procedures has traditionally been limited to being performed by only especially well-trained cardiologists and high-volume centers. Particularly during ablations for persistent (chronic) AF, long procedures and extensive ablation are often required. These procedures could result in significant scarring and damage to heart tissue, although a study from a French Bordeaux group found “recovery of atrial contractile function” (the heart goes back to beating and contracting normally) in 98% of patients in sinus rhythm after six months of follow-up. However, less experienced centers that do extensive ablations do run the risk of compromising the pumping ability and transport function of the left atrium.

 

AF is the most common heart rhythm disorder in the world and increases the risk for stroke 5-fold. In 2017, there were a reported 37.57 million prevalent cases and 3.05 million incident cases of AF globally, contributing to over 287,000 deaths worldwide (Global, regional, and national prevalence, incidence, mortality, and risk factors for atrial fibrillation, 1990–2017: results from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017). In 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated that it is estimated that 12.1 million people in the United States will have AF in 2030, more than 454,000 patients hospitalized annually as the primary diagnosis, and AF contributes to an estimated 158,000 deaths each year. An increasing proportion of diagnosed AF cases are now being treated via ablation, as both physician confidence and the devices used in these procedures improve. A growing amount of positive clinical data has demonstrated the efficacy of AF ablation when compared to the traditional first-line treatment of anti-arrhythmic drugs.

 

Recent studies suggest that COVID-19 may increase the risk of certain arrhythmias. In a meta-analysis of 19 observational studies with 21,653 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, the prevalence of AF was 11%. According to the studies, AF was higher in patients with severe versus non-severe COVID-19 (19% versus 3%).

 

In 2021, a meta-analysis of 6 randomized clinical trials involved 1,212 patients with AF (609 were randomized to AF ablation and 603 to drug therapy (AADs); mean {SD} age, 56 {11} years). Compared with AADs, catheter ablation use was associated with reductions in recurrent atrial arrhythmia (32.3% vs 53%; risk ratio {RR}, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.51-0.74; P < .001; I2 = 40%), with a number needed to treat with ablation to prevent 1 arrhythmia of 5. Use of ablation was also associated with reduced symptomatic atrial arrhythmia (11.8% vs 26.4%; RR, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.27-0.72; P = .001; I2 = 54%) and hospitalization (5.6% vs 18.7%; RR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.19-0.53; P < .001) with no significant difference in serious adverse events between the groups (4.2% vs 2.8%; RR, 1.52; 95% CI, 0.81-2.85; P = .19). In this meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials including first-line therapy of patients with paroxysmal AF, catheter ablation compared with antiarrhythmic drugs was associated with reductions in recurrence of atrial arrhythmias and hospitalizations, with no difference in major adverse events.

 

The AF Ablation Long Term Registry is an international registry of 3,630 patients who underwent AF ablation between 2012 and 2015 – the study reported a 41% rate of repeat ablation at three years post ablation. At 12-month follow-up, the outcome was judged to have been successful in 74% of patients. However, almost 50% of the patients were still taking an antiarrhythmic drug. AF recurrences were less common in patients with paroxysmal (31%) than with persistent (40%) or long-standing persistent (44%) AF.

 

According to the Heart Rhythm Society, VT is the most dangerous arrhythmia since it may result in ventricular fibrillation, a rapid chaotic heartbeat in the lower chambers of the heart which can often result in sudden cardiac death. Because the fibrillating muscle cannot contract and pump blood to the brain and vital organs, ventricular fibrillation is the number one cause of sudden cardiac death which accounts for approximately 300,000 deaths in the U.S. each year. VT is typically treated with implantable cardioverter defibrillators, or ICDs, or a combination of ablation along with an ICD.

 

Catheter ablation of VT has historically been used primarily for drug refractory ventricular arrhythmias in patients with ICDs. However, advances in electro-anatomical mapping systems, techniques to identify ablation sites during sinus rhythm, and the use of hemodynamic support devices has broadened the applicability of catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmias. When performed in centers with high procedural volumes, the rates of complications remain relatively low. However, success rates have historically been quite variable and highly dependent on the specific ablation approach adopted. Additionally, catheter ablation has evolved into an important treatment option for patients with scar-related heart disease presenting with VT or VF. An individual’s success rate of catheter ablation for VT is determined by the amount of infarct-related scar burden, represented as low-voltage signals; the experience of the team and center will influence outcomes. In patients with recurrent VT or VF despite complete revascularization and optimal medical treatment, radiofrequency catheter ablation should be considered. Recurrent VF episodes may be triggered by PVCs arising from partially injured Purkinje fibers or ventricular myocardium injured by ischemia and/or reperfusion. Precise catheter mapping and successful ablation of triggers for VT or VF, or myocardial substrate sustaining VT or VF, is a complex and demanding procedure according to the 2015 ESC Guidelines for the management of patients with ventricular arrhythmias and the prevention of sudden cardiac death The Task Force for the Management of Patients with Ventricular Arrhythmias and the Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC).

 

S-4

 

We believe that ablation will continue to be a preferred treatment for AF and VT. This increase in demand for ablation procedures has also increased the demand for technological advances in medical devices essential to ablation procedures. Improvements are needed to help reduce the periprocedural complications and decrease costly lengths of stay in patients undergoing catheter ablation procedures, adding focus to improving outcomes at low volume hospitals and among patients at high risk due to comorbidities. We believe that the PURE EP™ System may have a meaningful impact on assisting ablation strategies especially for repeat ablations and for those with significant scarring as it was developed to reveal the high frequency and very small amplitude of intracardiac signals important for identifying ablation targets.

 

EP Lab Environment and EP Recording Systems

 

The EP lab environment and recording systems create significant amounts of noise and artifacts during EP procedures. Current surface and intracardiac recording systems typically consist of large workstations interconnected by a complex set of cables that contribute to significant amounts of noise during signal acquisition. Additional noise and artifacts generated from the EP lab equipment further hamper recordings of small electrophysiological potentials. Preserving spaciotemporal (space and time) characteristics of the signal in a very challenging EP recording environment is a difficult task. To remove noise and artifacts, recorders that are currently on the market offer a family of low pass, high pass and notch filters, but these filters alter signal information context.

 

The shape and amplitude of electrocardiograms, unipolar and bipolar electrograms, and, consequently, reconstructed endocardial and epicardial maps, are influenced not only by electrophysiological and structural characteristics of the myocardial tissue involved, but with characteristics of the recording system. Amplitude and morphology of electrocardiogram and intracardiac signals are significantly affected by filters used to remove noise. Because of the number of amplitude and interval measurements made during an EP study, it is imperative that the recording system faithfully acquires surface electrocardiogram and intracardiac electrograms. We believe that the recording systems that are currently available on the market are ineffective in preserving the optimal amount of original information contained in the cardiac signals.

 

In addition, the EP lab consists of sophisticated equipment that requires an electrophysiologist to mentally integrate information from a number of sources during procedures. There are numerous monitors in an EP lab that provide and display this variety of information. An electrophysiologist needs to evaluate the acquired cardiac signals and the patient’s responses to any induced arrhythmias during the procedure. However, it can be difficult for an electrophysiologist to synthesize the disparate information produced by the numerous monitors in the lab and calculate the real-time, three-dimensional orientation of the anatomy and the location of the recording and ablation catheters. As the number of EP procedures increase, a variety of diagnostic, therapeutic and highly specialized ablation catheters are widely available and continue to be developed. In addition, remote robotic and magnetic navigation systems have been developed to address limitations of dexterity in controlling the catheter tip, especially during complex arrhythmia ablation procedures. We believe that, considering the improvements being made with respect to other equipment used in the EP lab and the continual increase of ablation procedures, the EP recorders currently available on the market are not sufficiently advanced with respect to the quality of their recordings to deliver adequate results. We believe that the PURE EP™ System will be able to deliver superior quality of recordings that will allow it to successfully integrate with the other advanced equipment found in the EP lab.

 

Generally, some current electrophysiology recording systems can effectively support the treatment of arrhythmias such as atrial flutter and supraventricular tachycardia, which show up as large-amplitude, low-frequency signals. However, more complex and prevalent arrhythmias, such as AF and VT, which are characterized by low-amplitude, high-frequency signals, have not found an effective evaluation of all relevant signals. This signal detection, acquisition, and isolation can be further complicated by equipment line noise and pacing signals. Current EP recorders use low-pass, high-pass, and notch filters to remove noise and artifacts from the various electrical signal information. Unfortunately, conventional filtering techniques can alter signals and make it difficult or impossible to see low-amplitude, high-frequency signals that can be inherent in cardiac monitoring, the visualization of which signals could help treat atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. It has been recently recognized that the assurance of waveform integrity, such as for the noise-free acquisition of intracardiac and ECG signals in an EP environment, had not been previously accomplished due to contamination of various signals by artifacts and noise.

 

The requirement for optimal signal integrity is amplified during ablation treatments of AF and VT. One of the main objectives of the AF ablation procedure is to precisely identify, ablate and eliminate pulmonary vein potentials and one of the main objectives of the VT procedure is to map the arrhythmia substrate and precisely identify, ablate and eliminate small abnormal potentials. The information provided by recorders is essential for an electrophysiologist to determine ablation strategy during termination of both pulmonary vein potentials and VT. Therefore, it is important that the recording system’s noise removal technique does not alter the appearance and fidelity of these potentials. As a result, it is necessary that any new signal processing technology preserves signal fidelity as much as possible during EP recordings; otherwise, the signals that are needed to guide the ablation procedures will be difficult to distinguish due to noise interference.

The PURE EP System

 

PURE EP™ is a signal processing platform that combines advanced hardware and software to address known challenges associated to signal acquisition, to enable electrophysiologists to see more signals and analyze them in real-time. The device aims to minimize noise and artifacts from cardiac recordings and acquire high-fidelity cardiac signals. Improving fidelity of acquired cardiac signals may potentially increase the diagnostic value of these signals, thereby possibly improving accuracy and efficiency of the EP studies and ablation procedures.

 

PURE EP™’s initial focus is on improving intracardiac signal acquisition and enhancing diagnostic information for catheter ablation procedures for complex arrhythmias like VT, a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia, and AF, the most common cardiac arrhythmia associated with a fivefold risk of stroke.

 

Clinical data acquired by the PURE EP™ System in a multi-center study at Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center in Austin, Texas, Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, and Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts was published in September 2021 in the Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology and is available electronically with open access via the Wiley Online Library. Study results showed 93% consensus across the blinded reviewers with a 75% overall improvement in intracardiac signal quality and confidence in interpreting PURE EP™ signals over conventional sources. AF accounted for over 40% of enrollments.

 

We continue to install PURE EP™ Systems at centers of excellence for clinical evaluation under our market development plan. The PURE EP™ System has been utilized at numerous institutions, including Mayo Clinic campuses in Arizona, Florida and Minnesota; the University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Overland Park Regional Medical System in Overland Park, Kansas; Deborah Heart and Lung Center in Browns Mills, New Jersey; St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts; Medical City Heart Hospital in Dallas, Texas; Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) in Boston, Massachusetts, a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School; Methodist Hospital in San Antonio, Texas; Houston Methodist Hospital; Medical City North Hills in North Richland Hills; and Westside Regional Medical Center in Plantation, Florida.

 

To date, more than 2,150 patient procedures have been conducted with the PURE EP™ System by more than 76 electrophysiologists across seventeen different clinical sites in the United States.

 

In addition to clinical evaluation, we have conducted pre-clinical evaluation with the PURE EP™ System under several protocols. At Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, we have performed twenty-seven experiments (including novel research programs such as Artificial Intelligence, or AI, and repolarization) in various animal models; we also conducted a pre-clinical study at the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, New York, with an emphasis on the VT model; and six experiments to date during a study at the University of Pennsylvania. We intend to continue additional research and development studies with our technology at Mayo Clinic, the University of Pennsylvania and other national centers.

 

In September 2021, we announced that we entered into a manufacturing and professional services agreement with Plexus Corp (“Plexus”) (Nasdaq: PLXS). Under the terms of the agreement, Plexus will manufacture the PURE EP™ System and develop a new product pipeline for our subsidiary, ViralClear.

 

We have made progress towards obtaining a European CE marking certificate for medical devices. In Q1 2022, we completed the quality management system audit for the International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) 13485:2016 with the expectation to obtain the ISO 13485:2016 certification in the first half of 2022 and proceed to the application for the European CE Marking clearance in the first half of 2023, subject to the guidance and availability from the European Notified Body.

 

In December 2020, we announced that three PURE EP™ Systems were contracted for purchase by St. David’s Healthcare in Austin, Texas and were subsequently sold in February 2021. We also sold three PURE EP™ Systems to Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research in 2021 for use in Mayo Clinic campuses in Rochester, Minnesota, Jacksonville, Florida and Phoenix, Arizona.

 

In January 2022, U.S. patent claims for our PURE EP™ noise-filtering technology which address computer-implemented systems and methods for filtering noise from input cardiac signals were approved, and the resulting patent issued on March 1, 2022. We now have 48 issued or allowed worldwide patents covering our novel technology for arrhythmia care.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our common stock, you should consider carefully the risks described below, together with other information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, the information and documents incorporated by reference. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under the heading Risk Factors included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and the subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other reports that we file with the SEC, which are on file with the SEC and are incorporated herein by reference, and which may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently see as immaterial, may also harm our business. Please also read carefully the section below entitled Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

 

Risks Related to This Offering

 

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

 

Because the price per share of common stock being offered in this offering is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution of $0.60 per share, representing the difference between the offering price per share of common stock you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2021, was approximately $17.6 million, or $0.50 per share of common stock. Net tangible book value per share is equal to our total tangible assets minus total liabilities, all divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding. See the section entitled “Dilution” on page S-14 below for a more detailed illustration of the dilution you may incur if you participate in this offering.

 

Our management team may invest or spend the proceeds raised in this offering in ways with which you may not agree or which may not yield a significant return.

 

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering. We currently intend to use the net proceeds of this offering as described in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds.” However, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of this offering. Accordingly, you are relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds will be used appropriately. The failure by management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, cause the price of our common stock to decline, and delay the development of our product candidates. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, interest-bearing instruments. These investments may not yield a favorable return, or any return, to us or our stockholders.

 

Our stock price is and may continue to be volatile and you may not be able to resell our common stock at or above the price you paid.

 

The market price for our common stock is volatile and may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which we cannot control, such as quarterly fluctuations in financial results, the timing and our ability to advance the development of our product candidates or changes in securities analysts’ recommendations could cause the price of our stock to fluctuate substantially. Each of these factors, among others, could harm your investment in our common stock and could result in your being unable to resell the shares of our common stock that you purchase at a price equal to or above the price you paid.

 

In addition, the stock markets in general, and the markets for biotechnology stocks in particular, have experienced extreme volatility that has at times been unrelated to the operating performance of the issuer. Between March 21, 2021 and March 21, 2022, the closing sales price of our common stock reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market has ranged between $0.90 and $4.90 per share. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price or liquidity of our common stock. In the past, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against the issuer. If any of our stockholders were to bring such a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit and the attention of our management would be diverted from the operation of our business.

 

We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock, so any returns will be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

We currently anticipate that we will retain any future earnings to finance the continued development, operation and expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends or other distributions in the foreseeable future. Further, we are currently restricted in our ability to pay dividends pursuant to the terms of our Series C Preferred Stock, absent consent from the holders representing a super-majority of the outstanding shares of our Series C Preferred Stock and a certain investor. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because stockholders must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, to realize any gains on their investment.

 

S-9

 

The sale of our common stock in this offering and any future sales of our common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, may depress our stock price and our ability to raise funds in new stock offerings.

 

We may from time to time issue additional shares of common stock at a discount from the current trading price of our common stock. As a result, our stockholders would experience immediate dilution upon the purchase of any shares of our common stock sold at such discount. In addition, as opportunities present themselves, we may enter into financing or similar arrangements in the future, including the issuance of debt securities, preferred stock or common stock. Sales of shares of our common stock in this offering and the public market following this offering, or the perception that such sales could occur, may lower the market price of our common stock and may make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that our management deems acceptable, or at all.

 

Even after this offering, we will need to raise significant additional funds to finance our operations, including the commercialization of the PURE EP™ System and other applications of our core technology, and to remain a going concern. If we are unable to raise additional capital when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be forced to delay, reduce and/or eliminate one or more of our business initiatives.

 

As of September 30, 2021, we had generated only nominal revenue from the sale of our PURE EP™ System. We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows since our inception. As of September 30, 2021, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $17.5 million. We believe our existing capital resources, including the net proceeds of this offering, will be sufficient to sustain our planned operations through August 2022. Our ability to raise additional funds will depend, in part, on our ability to successfully commercialize our PURE EP™ System in the United States. If, for whatever reason, we are unable to gain additional traction in the market for our PURE EP™ System, it may make any necessary debt, equity or alternative financing more difficult, more costly and more dilutive.

 

Attempting to secure additional financing may divert our management from our day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to commercialize our PURE EP™ System or develop our product candidates. In addition, we cannot guarantee that future financing will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Furthermore, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken to slow its spread and the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the global credit and financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, it may make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, more costly and more dilutive.

 

If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be unable to further commercialize our PURE EP™ System. In addition, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all our other development programs and business initiatives, or forced to cease operations entirely. To the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity, convertible debt or other securities convertible into equity, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these new securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders. Future debt financings, if available at all, would likely involve agreements with additional covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, making additional product acquisitions or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through strategic collaborations, alternative non-dilutive financing, such as royalty-based financing, or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our product candidates or future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. Moreover, if we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may be forced to liquidate our assets and the values we receive for our assets in liquidation or dissolution could be significantly lower than the values reflected in our financial statements.

 

There is no public market for the Warrants being offered in this offering.

 

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system, including the Nasdaq Capital Market. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

 

Holders of the Warrants purchased in this offering will have no rights as common stockholders until such holders exercise their Warrants and acquire our common stock.

 

Until holders of Warrants acquire shares of our common stock upon exercise of such Warrants, holders of Warrants will have no rights with respect to the shares of our common stock underlying such Warrants. Upon exercise of the Warrants, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and the other documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference herein, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations and strategies, future financial position, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “aim,” “contemplate,” “design,” “might,” “possible,” “project,” “seek,” “suggest,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” and similar expressions or phrases or the negative of those expressions or phrases, as well as statements in future tense, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will actually be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or our management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

 

 

 

our history of recurring losses and negative cash flows from operating activities and the uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity to pursue or complete our business objectives, and substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern;

 

 

the results of ongoing and future clinical studies;

 

 

our inability to successfully develop or commercialize our product candidates;

 

 

market acceptance of existing and new products;

 

 

our inability to carry out research, development and commercialization plans;

 

 

delays in any phase of the preclinical or clinical development of a product, including during its research and development;

 

 

our inability to complete preclinical testing and clinical trials as anticipated;

 

 

changes in our relationship with key collaborators;

 

 

our ability to adequately protect and enforce rights to intellectual property;

 

 

our need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the future and the difficulties in obtaining financing on commercially reasonable terms, or at all; 

 

 

intense competition in our industry, with competitors having substantially greater financial, technological, research and development, regulatory and clinical, manufacturing, marketing and sales, distribution and personnel resources than we do;

 

 

our inability to manufacture our PURE EP product on a commercial scale on our own or in collaborations with third parties;

 

 

entry of new competitors and products and potential technological obsolescence of our products;

 

 

effect of healthcare legislation or reform measures that may substantially change the market for medical care or healthcare coverage in the U.S.;

 

 

the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic;

 

 

our failure to obtain regulatory approvals;

 

 

adverse market and economic conditions;

 

 

our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market;

 

 

loss of one or more key executives;

 

 

difficulties in securing and retaining regulatory approval to market our product and product candidates; and

 

 

depth of the trading market in our common stock.

 

To date, only one of our products, PURE EP™ System, has been approved by the FDA for marketing in the United States. Our other current product candidates are investigational and have not been submitted to or approved by the FDA, and neither our PURE EP™ System nor our other product candidates have been approved for the European CE marking certificate for medical devices or any other regulatory authority anywhere else in the world. This prospectus also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by BioSig relating to market opportunity, growth and other data about its industry. These data and estimates involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates.

 

S-11

 

Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and the other document documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference herein, we caution you that these statements are based on our projections of the future that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, to differ. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as our current plans, estimates and beliefs. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and the other document documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference herein, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors,” beginning on page S-9 of this prospectus supplement, which we believe could cause our actual results to be materially different from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make.

 

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as to the date on which that statement is made. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus supplement, except as may otherwise be required by the federal securities laws.

 

S-12

 

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We expect to receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $3.0 million, after deducting the estimated offering expenses payable by us and excluding the proceeds we may receive from the exercise of the Warrants.

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering (i) for the continuation of commercialization activities related to the PURE EP™ System, including additional support for organizational development; (ii) to fund working capital; and (iii) for general corporate purposes and other capital expenditures. We do not currently have more specific plans or commitments with respect to the net proceeds from this offering and, accordingly, are unable to quantify the allocation of such proceeds among the various potential issues.

 

The expected use of net proceeds of this offering represents our current intentions based upon our present plan and business conditions. Investors are cautioned, however, that expenditures may vary substantially from these uses. Investors will be relying on the judgment of our management, who will have broad discretion regarding the application of the proceeds of this offering. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including the amount of cash generated by our operations, the amount of competition we face and other operational factors. We may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds from this offering for other purposes.

 

Pending application of the net proceeds as described above, we intend to invest the proceeds to us in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities such as money market funds, certificates of deposit, or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government, or hold as cash. We cannot predict whether the proceeds invested will yield a favorable, or any, return. 

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but intend to retain our capital resources for reinvestment in our business.  Any future determination to declare dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.  Our ability to pay dividends is presently restricted pursuant to the terms of our Series C Preferred Stock.

 

S-13

 

 

DILUTION

 

If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the offering price per share you will pay in this offering and the as-adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after giving effect to this offering.

 

Our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2021 was approximately $17.6 million, or $0.50 per share of common stock. Net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2021.

 

As-adjusted net tangible book value per share represents our net tangible book value after giving effect to the sale of 2,613,130 shares of common stock at the public offering price of $1.15 per share, and, after deducting the estimated offering expenses payable by us in connection with this offering, would have been approximately $20.6 million, or $0.55  per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.05 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of approximately $0.60 per share to purchasers of our common stock in this offering.

 

The following table illustrates this per share dilution.

 

Offering price per share

          $ 1.15  

Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2021

  $ 0.50          

Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering

          $ 0.55  

Dilution per share to new investors in this offering

          $ 0.60  

 

The discussion and table above assume no exercise of the Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,613,130 shares of common stock to be issued in this offering.

 

The above discussion and table are based on 35,254,860 shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2021 and excludes:

 

 

 

818,910 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants outstanding with an exercise price ranging from $4.80 to $6.16 per share and having a weighted average exercise price of $5.74 per share;

 

 

 

4,037,122 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options outstanding with exercise prices ranging from $2.96 to $10.49 and having a weighted average exercise price of $5.12 per share;

 

 

 

3,606,901 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the 2012 Plan;

 

 

 

182,500 shares of common stock issuable from time to time after this offering upon the settlement of restricted stock units outstanding; and

 

 

 

64,292 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding Series C Preferred Stock, including the payment of the dividends accrued on the Series C Preferred Stock in an aggregate of 35,235 shares of common stock at the conversion price of $2.98 per share and the stated value per share of $1,000.

 

To the extent that any of these outstanding options, warrants, preferred stock, or restricted stock units are exercised, converted or settled at prices per share below the public offering price per share in this offering or we issue additional shares under our equity incentive plans at prices below the public offering price per share in this offering, you may experience further dilution. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership will be further diluted.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

 

Common Stock

 

The material terms and provisions of our common stock are described under the heading “Description of Capital Stock” in the accompanying prospectus.

 

Warrants

 

The following is a summary of the material terms and provisions of the Warrants that are being offered hereby. This summary is subject to and qualified in its entirety by the form of Warrants, which has been provided to the investors in this offering and which will be filed with the SEC as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K in connection with this offering and incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus form a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of Warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Warrants.

 

Exercise Price, Initial Exercise Date and Duration

 

The Warrants offered hereby will have an exercise price of $1.40 per share. The Warrants will become exercisable six months after the date of issuance and will expire three and one-half years following the date of issuance. The exercise prices and numbers of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock. Warrants will be issued in certificated form only.

 

Exercisability

 

The Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of such holder’s Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% (or 9.99%, at the holder’s election) of our outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, except that upon notice from the holder to us, the holder may decrease or increase the limitation of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s Warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, provided that any increase in such limitation shall not be effective until 61 days following notice to us.

 

Cashless Exercise

 

If, at the time a holder exercises its Warrants, a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants under the Securities Act, is not then effective or available for the issuance of such shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Warrant.

 

Transferability

 

A Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

 

Fractional Shares

 

No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants. Rather, the number of shares of common stock to be issued will, at our election, either be rounded up to the nearest whole number or we will pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price.

 

Trading Market

 

There is no established trading market for any of the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for a listing for any of the Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

 

S-15

 

Rights as a Stockholder

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Warrants or by virtue of the holders’ ownership of shares of our common stock, the holders of Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until such Warrant holders exercise their Warrants.

 

Fundamental Transaction

 

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding common stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the holders of the Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

 

S-16

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We entered into a securities purchase agreement, dated March 21, 2022, directly with certain investors in connection with this offering, and we will only sell to investors who have entered into the securities purchase agreement.

 

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BSGM”. We expect to deliver the shares of common stock and Warrants being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement on or about March 23, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.

Determination of Offering Price

 

The offering price of the common stock we are offering was negotiated between us and the investors in the offering based on the trading of our common stock prior to the offering, among other things.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary provides an overview of selected information contained elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You should carefully read the prospectus, the information incorporated by reference and the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in their entirety before investing in our securities, including the information discussed under Risk Factors in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference and our financial statements and notes thereto that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

Overview

 

BioSig Technologies, Inc.

 

We are a medical technology company commercializing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to improve signal fidelity and uncover the full range of electrocardiogram (“ECG”) and intra-cardiac signals. Our initial emphasis is on providing intracardiac signal information to electrophysiologists during electrophysiology (“EP”) studies and cardiac catheter ablation procedures. Cardiac catheter ablation is a procedure that involves delivery of energy through the tip of a catheter that scars or destroys heart tissue in order to correct heart rhythm disturbances. In August 2018, we received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) to market our PURE (Precise Uninterrupted Real-time evaluation of Electrograms) EP System.

 

PURE EP™ is a proprietary signal acquisition and processing technology. Our device is a computerized system intended for acquiring, digitizing, amplifying, filtering, measuring and calculating, displaying, recording, and storing of electrocardiographic and intracardiac signals for patients undergoing EP procedures in an EP laboratory under the supervision of licensed healthcare practitioners who are responsible for interpreting the data. The device aims to minimize noise and artifacts from cardiac recordings and acquire high-fidelity cardiac signals. Improving fidelity of acquired cardiac signals may potentially increase the diagnostic value of these signals, thereby possibly improving the accuracy and efficiency of the EP studies and related procedures.

 

Our initial focus is on improving intracardiac signal acquisition and enhancing diagnostic information for catheter ablation procedures for complex arrhythmias like ventricular tachycardia (“VT”), a potentially life-threatening arrhythmia, and atrial fibrillation (“AF”), the most common cardiac arrhythmia associated with a fivefold risk of stroke.

 

On February 18 and February 19, 2019, we conducted the first clinical cases with our PURE EP™ System. The observational patient cases were performed by Andrea Natale, M.D., F.A.C.C., F.H.R.S., F.E.S.C., Executive Medical Director, Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center in Austin, Texas. On April 16, 2019, we announced the completion of our second set of observational patient cases, which were performed at Prisma Health at Greenville Health System in South Carolina by Andrew Brenyo, MD, FHRS. Dr. Brenyo used the PURE EP™ System during procedures on patients with ischemic ventricular tachycardias, AF, PVC, and atypical flutters.

 

On May 6, 2019, we announced the completion of our third set of observational patient cases at Indiana University under the leadership of Prof. John M. Miller, M.D., and Dr. Mithilesh K. Das, MBBS. Drs. Miller and Das used the PURE EP™ System during procedures on patients with atypical flutter, atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT), AF, supraventricular tachycardia, premature ventricular contractions, and a rare case of dual septal pathway. In August 2019, observational patient cases at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in California were performed by Brett Andrew Gidney, M.D. The initial experience across these early evaluation centers showed the PURE EP™ System functions as designed with positive feedback from EP users about the improved signal detection and fidelity.

 

In November 2019, we commenced our first clinical study for the PURE EP™ System titled, “Novel Cardiac Signal Processing System for Electrophysiology Procedures (PURE EP 2.0 Study).” Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Research Foundation (TCARF) in Austin, Texas, was the first institution to conduct patient cases under the clinical study. On January 16, 2020, we announced the installation of a PURE EP™ System at Mayo Clinic Florida campus in Jacksonville, Florida. Mayo Clinic was the second institution to conduct patient cases under the same clinical study.

On August 4, 2020, the Company announced the installation of a PURE EP™ System at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) as part of the expanding clinical study. On September 23, 2020, we installed PURE EPTM System at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital, and on October 29, 2020, we announced the installation of our PURE EP™ System at the Deborah Heart and Lung Center in Browns Mills, New Jersey for clinical evaluation. As of December 30, 2020, 74 patients have been enrolled in the study.

 

In addition to clinical evaluation, we have conducted a total of twenty-seven pre-clinical studies with the PURE EPTM System, twenty-two of which were performed at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. We also conducted a pre-clinical study at the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, New York, with an emphasis on the VT model; and four pre-clinical studies at the University of Pennsylvania. We intend to continue additional research and development studies with our technology at Mayo Clinic and the University of Pennsylvania. We also intend to continue additional clinical external evaluation at a select number of other centers.

 

We have made progress towards obtaining a European CE marking certificate for medical devices. Leading up to a new Medical Device Regulation that was due to enter into full force in 2020 but has since been put on hold for one year, the European Notified Bodies reported delays in accepting and processing new applications throughout 2019. We intend to commence audit preparation for the International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) 13485 and Medical Device Single Audit Program certification with the expectation to proceed with the audit to obtain the ISO 13485 Certification and CE Mark in the first half of 2021 and subsequently file for CE Mark in the second half of 2021.

 

In December 2020, we announced the sale of three PURE EP™ Systems to St. David’s Healthcare of Austin, Texas. Additionally, we are in active discussions with numerous accounts about the acquisition of the PURE EPTM System. We anticipate our initial customers will be medical centers of excellence and other health care facilities that operate EP labs.

 

Corporate Information

 

We were formed as BioSig Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, in February 2009. In April 2011, we merged with our wholly-owned subsidiary, BioSig Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation, with the Delaware corporation continuing as the surviving entity. Our principal executive offices are located at 54 Wilton Road, 2nd Floor, Westport, Connecticut 06880, and our telephone number is (203) 409-5444. Our website address is www.biosig.com. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports, are available to you free of charge through the “Investors” section of our web site as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials have been electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. Information contained on our website does not form a part of this prospectus.

 

The Securities We May Offer

 

We may offer up to $75,000,000 of common stock, preferred stock, warrants and/or units in one or more offerings and in any combination. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. A prospectus supplement, which we will provide each time we offer securities, will describe the specific amounts, prices and terms of these securities.

 

Common Stock

 

We may issue shares of our common stock from time to time. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends as may be declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but intend to retain our capital resources for reinvestment in our business. Any future disposition of dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors. Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at meetings of stockholders. The holders are not permitted to vote their shares cumulatively. Accordingly, the stockholders of our common stock who hold, in the aggregate, more than fifty percent of the total voting rights can elect all of our directors and, in such event, the holders of the remaining minority shares will not be able to elect any of such directors. The vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote thereon is sufficient to authorize, affirm, ratify or consent to such act or action, except as otherwise provided by law. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights or other subscription rights, conversion rights, redemption or sinking fund provisions. Subject to the rights of the holders of our preferred stock, upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock, which may be designated solely by action of our board of directors and issued in the future.

Preferred Stock

 

We may issue shares of our preferred stock from time to time, in one or more series. Our board of directors will determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, without any further vote or action by stockholders. Convertible preferred stock will be convertible into our common stock or exchangeable for our other securities. Conversion may be mandatory or at your option or both and would be at prescribed conversion rates.

 

If we sell any series of preferred stock under this prospectus and applicable prospectus supplements, we will fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock of such series in the certificate of designation relating to that series. We will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from reports that we file with the SEC, the form of any certificate of designation that describes the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering before the issuance of the related series of preferred stock. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplement related to the series of preferred stock being offered, as well as the complete certificate of designation that contains the terms of the applicable series of preferred stock.

 

Warrants

 

We may issue warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock in one or more series. We may issue warrants independently or together with common stock or preferred stock, and the warrants may be attached to or separate from these securities. We will evidence each series of warrants by warrant certificates that we will issue under a separate agreement. We may enter into warrant agreements with a bank or trust company that we select to be our warrant agent. We will indicate the name and address of the warrant agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of warrants.

 

In this prospectus, we have summarized certain general features of the warrants. We urge you, however, to read the applicable prospectus supplement related to the particular series of warrants being offered, as well as the warrant agreements and warrant certificates that contain the terms of the warrants. We will file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from reports that we file with the SEC, the form of warrant agreement or warrant certificate containing the terms of the warrants we are offering before the issuance of the warrants.

 

Units

 

We may issue units consisting of common stock, preferred stock and/or warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock in one or more series. In this prospectus, we have summarized certain general features of the units. We urge you, however, to read the applicable prospectus supplement related to the series of units being offered, as well as the unit agreements that contain the terms of the units. We will file as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference reports that we file with the SEC, the form of unit agreement and any supplemental agreements that describe the terms of the series of units we are offering before the issuance of the related series of units.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the specific factors discussed under the heading Risk Factors in the applicable prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in the prospectus supplement or appearing or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or any updates in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated herein by reference, as updated or superseded by the risks and uncertainties described under similar headings in the other documents that are filed after the date hereof and incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any prospectus supplement related to a particular offering. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, business prospects, financial condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section above entitled Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We cannot assure you that we will receive any proceeds in connection with securities which may be offered pursuant to this prospectus. Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we intend to use any net proceeds from the sale of securities under this prospectus for our operations and for other general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, general working capital and possible future acquisitions. We have not determined the amounts we plan to spend on any of the areas listed above or the timing of these expenditures. As a result, our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds, if any, we receive in connection with securities offered pursuant to this prospectus for any purpose. Pending application of the net proceeds as described above, we may initially invest the net proceeds in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities such as money market funds, certificates of deposit, or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government, hold as cash or apply them to the reduction of short-term indebtedness.

Unless approval of our stockholders is so required, our board of directors does not intend to seek stockholder approval for the issuance and sale of our common stock or preferred stock.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by stockholders. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends as may be declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose.

The board of directors is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, without further vote or action by the stockholders, to issue from time to time shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Each such series of preferred stock shall have such number of shares, designations, preferences, voting powers, qualifications, and special or relative rights or privileges as shall be determined by the board of directors, which may include, among others, dividend rights, voting rights, liquidation preferences, conversion rights and preemptive rights. Issuance of preferred stock by our board of directors may result in such shares having dividend and/or liquidation preferences senior to the rights of the holders of our common stock and could dilute the voting rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

8

 

 

Prior to the issuance of shares of each series of preferred stock, the board of directors is required by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and our certificate of incorporation to adopt resolutions and file a certificate of designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The certificate of designation fixes for each class or series the designations, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions, including, but not limited to, some or all of the following:

 

 

the number of shares constituting that series and the distinctive designation of that series, which number may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) from time to time by action of the board of directors;

     
 

the dividend rate and the manner and frequency of payment of dividends on the shares of that series, whether dividends will be cumulative, and, if so, from which date;

     
 

whether that series will have voting rights, in addition to any voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights;

     
 

whether that series will have conversion privileges, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including provision for adjustment of the conversion rate in such events as the board of directors may determine;

     
 

whether or not the shares of that series will be redeemable, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption;

     
 

whether that series will have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of shares of that series, and, if so, the terms and amount of such sinking fund;

     
 

whether or not the shares of the series will have priority over or be on a parity with or be junior to the shares of any other series or class in any respect;

     
 

the rights of the shares of that series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation, and the relative rights or priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series; and

     
 

any other relative rights, preferences and limitations of that series.

 

Once designated by our board of directors, each series of preferred stock may have specific financial and other terms that will be described in a prospectus supplement. The description of the preferred stock that is set forth in any prospectus supplement is not complete without reference to the documents that govern the preferred stock. These include our certificate of incorporation and any certificates of designation that our board of directors may adopt.

 

All shares of preferred stock offered hereby will, when issued, be fully paid and nonassessable, including shares of preferred stock issued upon the exercise of preferred stock warrants or subscription rights, if any.

 

Although our board of directors has no intention at the present time of doing so, it could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of such series, impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law, our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and Stockholder Rights Agreement

 

Delaware Law

 

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 generally prohibits a public Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless:

 

 

prior to the date of the transaction, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

 

9

 

 

 

the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding (i) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

 

 

on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

 

Section 203 defines a business combination to include:

 

 

any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

 

 

any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition involving the interested stockholder of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation;

 

 

subject to exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder; or

 

 

the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation.

 

In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with, or controlling, or controlled by, the entity or person. The term “owner” is broadly defined to include any person that, individually, with or through that person’s affiliates or associates, among other things, beneficially owns the stock, or has the right to acquire the stock, whether or not the right is immediately exercisable, under any agreement or understanding or upon the exercise of warrants or options or otherwise or has the right to vote the stock under any agreement or understanding, or has an agreement or understanding with the beneficial owner of the stock for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the stock.

 

The restrictions in Section 203 do not apply to corporations that have elected, in the manner provided in Section 203, not to be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL or, with certain exceptions, which do not have a class of voting stock that is listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws do not opt out of Section 203.

 

Section 203 could delay or prohibit mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts with respect to us and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

 

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that our stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Among other things, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws:

 

 

permit our board of directors to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without further action by the stockholders, with any rights, preferences and privileges as they may designate, including the right to approve an acquisition or other change in control;

 

 

 

provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors;

 

 

do not provide for cumulative voting rights (therefore allowing the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose); and

 

 

provide advance notice provisions with which a stockholder who wishes to nominate a director or propose other business to be considered at a stockholder meeting must comply.

 

10

 

 

Stockholder Rights Agreement

 

On July 14, 2020, we entered into a stockholder rights agreement with Action Stock Transfer Corporation, as rights agent (the “Rights Agreement”), which entitles the holders of the rights to purchase from the Company 1/1,000th of a share of the Company’s Series F Junior Participating Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a purchase price of $50.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments (a “Right”), upon certain trigger events. In connection therewith, on July 14, 2020, the board of directors authorized 200,000 shares of Series F Junior Participating Preferred Stock and it declared a dividend of one Right for each share of common stock of the Company outstanding as of July 27, 2020. Each 1/1,000th of a share of Series F Junior Participating Preferred Stock will essentially be the economic equivalent of one share of our common stock. However, until a Right is exercised or exchanged in accordance with the provisions of the Rights Agreement, the holder thereof will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, including, but not limited to, the right to vote or to receive dividends.

 

The Rights do not separate from the common stock unless one or both of the following conditions are met: a public announcement that a person or group becomes the beneficial owner of 12% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock (including in the form of synthetic ownership through derivative positions) (such person, an “Acquiring Person”), or a tender or exchange offer is made which, if completed, would result in the bidder becoming an Acquiring Person.

 

In the event that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a right, other than rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person (which will become void), will have the right to purchase, at the right’s exercise price, a number of shares of the Company’s common stock (or equivalent securities) having a market value of twice the right’s exercise price. The rights may be redeemed by the Company for $0.001 per right at any time until the first public announcement of the acquisition of beneficial ownership of 12% of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Rights expire upon the earliest to occur of (i) the close of business on July 13, 2021; (ii) the time at which the Rights are redeemed or exchanged pursuant to the Rights Agreement; and (iii) the time at which the Rights are terminated upon the closing of any merger or other acquisition transaction involving the Company pursuant to a merger or other acquisition agreement that has been approved by the Board prior to any person becoming an Acquiring Person.

 

The Rights have certain anti-takeover effects. The Rights may cause substantial dilution to a person or group of affiliated or associated persons that acquires beneficial ownership of 12% or more of the Company’s stock on terms not approved by the board of directors or takes other specified actions. As a result, the overall effect of the Rights may be to render more difficult or discourage any attempt to acquire us even if the acquisition may be favorable to the interests of our stockholders. Because the board of directors can redeem or exchange the Rights, the Rights should not interfere with a merger or other business combination approved by the board. We can make no assurances the rights plan will be effective in meeting its intended objectives, including to deter a change in control.

 

The description of our Series F Junior Participating Preferred Stock, which is contained in the Registration Statement on Form 8-A (File No. 001-38659) filed with the SEC on July 17, 2020, including any amendments or reports we file for purposes of updating that description, is incorporated herein by reference.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

 

As of December 30, 2020, there were outstanding warrants to purchase 1,451,667 shares of common stock.

 

We may issue warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock in one or more series. We may issue warrants independently or together with common stock or preferred stock, and the warrants may be attached to or separate from these securities.

 

We will evidence each series of warrants by warrant certificates that we may issue under a separate agreement. We may enter into a warrant agreement with a warrant agent. Each warrant agent may be a bank that we select which has its principal office in the United States. We may also choose to act as our own warrant agent. We will indicate the name and address of any such warrant agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of warrants.

 

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of warrants, including:

 

 

the offering price and aggregate number of warrants offered;

     
 

if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which the warrants are issued and the number of warrants issued with each such security or each principal amount of such security;

     
 

if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable;

     
 

in the case of warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, the number or amount of shares of common stock or preferred stock, as the case may be, purchasable upon the exercise of one warrant and the price at which and currency in which these shares may be purchased upon such exercise;

     
 

the manner of exercise of the warrants, including any cashless exercise rights;

     
 

the warrant agreement under which the warrants will be issued;

     
 

the effect of any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of our business on the warrant agreement and the warrants;

     
 

anti-dilution provisions of the warrants, if any;

     
 

the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants;

     
 

any provisions for changes to or adjustments in the exercise price or number of securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants;

     
 

the dates on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and expire or, if the warrants are not continuously exercisable during that period, the specific date or dates on which the warrants will be exercisable;

     
 

the manner in which the warrant agreement and warrants may be modified;

     
 

the identities of the warrant agent and any calculation or other agent for the warrants;

     
 

federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the warrants;

     
 

the terms of the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants;

     
 

any securities exchange or quotation system on which the warrants or any securities deliverable upon exercise of the warrants may be listed or quoted; and

     
 

any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of or restrictions on the warrants.

 

Before exercising their warrants, holders of warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon such exercise, including, in the case of warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, the right to receive dividends, if any, or, payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up or to exercise voting rights, if any.

 

12

 

 

Exercise of Warrants

 

Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase the securities that we specify in the applicable prospectus supplement at the exercise price that we describe in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to 5:00 P.M. eastern time, the close of business, on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

 

Holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants by delivering the warrant certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying the required exercise price by the methods provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We will set forth on the reverse side of the warrant certificate, and in the applicable prospectus supplement, the information that the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver to the warrant agent.

 

Upon receipt of the required payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If fewer than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, then we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining amount of warrants.

 

Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Warrants

 

Any warrant agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any warrant. A single bank or trust company may act as warrant agent for more than one issue of warrants. A warrant agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable warrant agreement or warrant, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a warrant may, without the consent of the related warrant agent or the holder of any other warrant, enforce by appropriate legal action the holder’s right to exercise, and receive the securities purchasable upon exercise of, its warrants in accordance with their terms.

 

Warrant Agreement Will Not Be Qualified Under Trust Indenture Act

 

No warrant agreement will be qualified as an indenture, and no warrant agent will be required to qualify as a trustee, under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. Therefore, holders of warrants issued under a warrant agreement will not have the protection of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 with respect to their warrants.

 

Governing Law

 

Unless we provide otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, each warrant agreement and any warrants issued under the warrant agreements will be governed by New York law.

 

13

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

 

We may issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder, with the rights and obligations of a holder, of each security included in the unit. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any times before a specified date or upon the occurrence of a specified event or occurrence.

 

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe:

 

 

the designation and the terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;

     
 

any unit agreement under which the units will be issued;

     
 

any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and

     
 

whether the units will be issued in fully registered or global form.

 

14

 

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We may sell the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions, including, without limitation:

 

 

to or through underwriters;

     
 

through broker-dealers (acting as agent or principal);

     
 

through agents;

     
 

directly by us to one or more purchasers (including our affiliates and stockholders), through a specific bidding or auction process, a rights offering or otherwise;

     
 

through a combination of any such methods of sale; or

     
 

through any other methods described in a prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus.

 

The distribution of securities may be effected, from time to time, in one or more transactions, including:

 

 

block transactions (which may involve crosses) and transactions on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other organized market where the securities may be traded;

     
 

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to a prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus;

     
 

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

     
 

sales “at the market” to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise; and

     
 

sales in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers.

 

The applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus will describe the terms of the offering of the securities, including:

 

 

the name or names of any underwriters, if, and if required, any dealers or agents;

     
 

the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds we will receive from the sale;

     
 

any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation;

     
 

any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers; and

     
 

any securities exchange or market on which the securities may be listed or traded.

 

We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at:

 

 

a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;

     
 

market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

     
 

prices related to such prevailing market prices; or

     
 

negotiated prices.

 

15

 

 

Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement are underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.

 

If underwriters are used in an offering, we will execute an underwriting agreement with such underwriters and will specify the name of each underwriter and the terms of the transaction (including any underwriting discounts and other terms constituting compensation of the underwriters and any dealers) in a prospectus supplement. The securities may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or directly by one or more investment banking firms or others, as designated. If an underwriting syndicate is used, the managing underwriter(s) will be specified on the cover of the prospectus supplement. If underwriters are used in the sale, the offered securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own accounts and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time. Unless otherwise set forth in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the offered securities will be subject to conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the offered securities, if any are purchased.

 

We may grant to the underwriters options to purchase additional securities to cover over-allotments, if any, at the public offering price, with additional underwriting commissions or discounts, as may be set forth in a related prospectus supplement. The terms of any over-allotment option will be set forth in the prospectus supplement for those securities.

 

If we use a dealer in the sale of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus or any prospectus supplement, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. The names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction will be specified in a prospectus supplement.

 

We may sell the securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of securities and we will describe any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, any agent will act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

 

We may authorize agents or underwriters to solicit offers by institutional investors to purchase securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. We will describe the conditions to these contracts and the commissions we must pay for solicitation of these contracts in the prospectus supplement.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities, underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of the securities for whom they act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell the securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities, and any institutional investors or others that purchase securities directly for the purpose of resale or distribution, may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or commissions received by them from us and any profit on the resale of the common stock by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

We may provide agents, underwriters and other purchasers with indemnification against particular civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or contribution with respect to payments that the agents, underwriters or other purchasers may make with respect to such liabilities. Agents and underwriters may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.

 

To facilitate the public offering of a series of securities, persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the market price of the securities. This may include over-allotments or short sales of the securities, which involves the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than have been sold to them by us. In addition, those persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the securities by bidding for or purchasing securities in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to underwriters or dealers participating in any such offering may be reclaimed if securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. We make no representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above, if implemented, may have on the price of our securities.

 

16

 

 

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, any common stock sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement will be eligible for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to official notice of issuance. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold by us for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus will be sold in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and complied with.
