Notes to condensed
financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. | ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS |
Organization
Nano Precision Medical, Inc. (“NPM”) is a biopharmaceutical business which develops miniaturized, subdermal drug implants utilizing its proprietary NanoPortal™ technology to enable long-term, near constant-rate delivery of a broad range of medicines to treat chronic diseases. NPM plans to use this platform technology to develop and commercialize innovative, long-term drug implants, alone or in collaboration with pharmaceutical company partners to address a leading cause of poor clinical outcomes, medication adherence. NPM’s drug implants, unlike oral and injectable medicines, are able to address adherence by delivering minimally fluctuating drug plasma levels targeting for up to 6 months or the life of the implant. NPM was incorporated in California on December 14, 2009. NPM’s development and commercialization of novel, proprietary therapeutic implants represents the sole operating and reporting segment.
Definitive merger agreement
On February 4, 2022, Second Sight Medical Products, Inc. (“Second Sight”) entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with NPM. The Merger was approved by the shareholders of Second Sight on July 27, 2022 and closed on August 30, 2022. Upon consummation of the Merger, NPM became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Second Sight. Prior to the Merger, Second Sight changed its name to Vivani Medical, Inc. and changed its trading symbol from EYES to VANI, and will trade under the ticker VANI on the NASDAQ market.
Under the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the securities of NPM converted into the right to receive shares of Second Sight’s common stock representing 77.32% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Second Sight on a fully converted basis, including, without limitation, giving effect to the conversion of all options, warrants, and any and all other convertible securities assuming net settlement. Second Sight filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 on May 13, 2022 in connection with the Merger to register the merger shares effective June 24, 2022.
The Merger involved a change of control and is expected to be accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, Second Sight is expected to be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes with NPM as the acquirer. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed by NMP are expected to be recorded at fair value under Accounting Codification Standard (“ASC 805”), Business Combinations.
Certain investors and members of the NPM board of directors are also investors and members of the board of directors of Second Sight.
SAFE Agreement
On February 4, 2022, in connection with the Merger, Second Sight and NPM also entered into a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) whereby Second Sight provided to NPM an investment advance of $8 million. If the Merger were to be terminated without completion, NPM would issue to Second Sight that number of shares of NPM common stock equal to not less than 2.133% of the issued and outstanding shares of NPM common stock assuming exercise or conversion of all outstanding vested and unvested options, warrants, and convertible securities. The agreement provided that the SAFE would termination if the Merger were to be successfully completed.
5
Under the terms of the SAFE, upon successfully completion of the Merger on August 30, 2022, the investment advance was eliminated. Under the accounting for a business combination, the $8 million will adjust the purchase consideration. See Note 6, SAFE Obligation, for further information.
Going Concern
NPM incurred operating losses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and the year ended December 31, 2021 of $8.0 million and $12.8 million, respectively; and negative cash flows from operations of $6.6 million and $11.0 million, respectively, during the same time periods. Since inception, NPM has relied primarily on the proceeds from equity offerings, and most recently, debt arrangements to finance operations. These conditions resulted in substantial doubt regarding NPM’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The ability of NPM to continue as a going concern prior to the Merger was dependent on successful implementation of management’s plans to raise additional capital. With the Second Sight merger as of August 30, 2022, the combined entity now has access to over $50 million of cash which is expected to be adequate to fund its operation for at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were made available and management believes the substantial doubt has been alleviated.
However, the ability of Vivani to fund its business plan long-term will likely require additional capital which cannot be assured.
Risks and uncertainties
NPM continues to monitor the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic which has resulted in travel and other restrictions to reduce the spread of the disease. To date, we have not experienced significant disruptions from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. All clinical and chemistry, manufacturing and control activities are currently active.
The safety, health and well-being of all patients, medical staff and internal and external teams is the paramount and primary focus. As the pandemic and its resulting restrictions evolve in jurisdictions across the country, the potential exists for further disruptions to projected timelines. NPM is in close communication with clinical teams and key vendors and is prepared to take action should the pandemic worsen and impact the business in the future.
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of accounting and financial statement presentation
These unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and following the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP can be condensed or omitted. In our opinion, the unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position and our results of operations and cash flows for periods presented. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from our audited balance sheet included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the SEC on May 13, 2022 (the “Proxy and Registration Statement). These unaudited interim condensed financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with our annual financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The results of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other interim period or any future year or period.
6
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management of NPM to make a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the period. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Some of the more significant estimates include useful lives of long-lived assets, the fair value of equity-based compensation and evaluation of going concern. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Concentration of risk
Financial instruments that subject to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. Cash funds are maintained with financial institutions that management deems credit worthy, and at times, cash balances may be in excess of FDIC insurance limits of $250,000. To date, NPM has not experienced any credit loss relating to its cash and cash equivalents.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss is the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and all other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. NPM did not have components of other comprehensive loss, and as a result, comprehensive loss is the same as net loss.
Research and development, and patent costs
Research and development (“R&D”) activities are focused on pharmaceutical R&D, device R&D, regulatory consulting and manufacturing; the related costs consist primarily of clinical trial related costs, compensation expense, contractor costs, professional fees and R&D related depreciation which are charged to operations in the period incurred. Due to uncertainty associated with the successful development of one or more commercially viable products based on research efforts and any related patent applications, all patent costs through 2022, including patent-related legal, filing fees and other costs, including internally generated costs, were expensed as incurred.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation, professional fees, occupancy, office, technology and non-R&D depreciation.
Stock-based compensation
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for service-based stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The fair value of option-based awards is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Black- Scholes valuation model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions, including the option’s expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock. For inputs into the Black-Scholes valuation model, the expected stock price volatility for the common stock is estimated by taking the average historic price volatility for industry peers based on daily price observations over a period equivalent to the expected term of the stock option grants. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the Company’s industry which are of similar size, complexity and stage of development. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury implied yield at the date of grant. The expected dividend yield is nil as the Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock.
7
The fair value of common stock underlying grants is determined by considering a number of objective, subjective and highly complex factors including independent third-party valuations of the Company’s common stock, operating and financial performance, the lack of liquidity of capital stock and general and industry specific economic outlook among other factors.
The Company has elected to use the “simplified method” to determine the expected term which is the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term because it has insufficient history upon which to base an assumption about the term; the Company believes the simplified method approximates a term if it were to be based on expected life.
Income Taxes - Interim Periods
In calculating the provision for interim income taxes, in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes an estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to year-to-date ordinary income. At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. This differs from the method utilized at the end of an annual period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. This ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in U.S. GAAP. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2022, with no impact on prior periods.
There are no other pronouncements not yet adopted that could have a material effect on future results of operations or financial position.
3. | NET LOSS PER SHARE |
Basic net loss per share is computed using net loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted net loss per share represents net loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted- average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents consist of shares subject to warrants and share-based awards with exercise prices less than the average market price of NPM’s common stock for the period, to the extent their inclusion would be dilutive.
8
The following table presents information necessary to calculate basic and diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | |||||||||||||
Net loss for period | $ | (4,103 | ) | $ | (2,675 | ) | $ | (8,028 | ) | $ | (5,663 | ) | ||||
Weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for basic and diluted EPS | 12,202,824 | 10,944,746 | 12,200,270 | 10,777,040 | ||||||||||||
Earnings per share, basic and diluted | $ | (0.34 | ) | $ | (0.24 | ) | $ | (0.66 | ) | $ | (0.53 | ) |
Since NPM was in a loss position for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, basic net loss per share was the same as diluted net loss per share for the periods presented since the inclusion of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.
The computation of the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for diluted EPS excludes the following potential common shares as of June 30, 2022 and 2021:
June 30, 2022 | June 30, 2021 | |||||||
Shares underlying warrants outstanding | 3,006,086 | 2,233,175 | ||||||
Shares underlying stock options outstanding | 1,533,847 | 2,184,787 |
The shares underlying the SAFE obligation were issuable only if the Merger is terminated. Accordingly, since the Merger was successfully completed in August 2022, these contingently issuable shares as of June 30, 2022 have been excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.
4. | LEASES |
Total Right of Use (ROU) assets, net of accumulated amortization, were $1.2 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The current portion of lease liabilities was $1.1 million and $0.9 million, and the long-term portion of lease liabilities was $0.3 million and $0.9 million, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Operating lease costs included in general and administrative and research and development expenses were $0.2 million and $0.2 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021; and $0.5 million and $0.4 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash paid for amounts included in operating cash flows from operating leases was $0.2 million and $0.2 million, for three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $0.4 million and $0.4 million, for six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the weighted-average remaining lease term in years was 1.35 years, and the weighted-average discount rate was 4.83%. No impairment losses have been recognized through June 30, 2022.
The aggregate future minimum lease payments under long-term non-cancelable operating leases with remaining terms greater than one year as of June 30, 2022 are as follows:
July 1 - December 31, 2022 | $ | 557 | ||
2023 | 922 | |||
Total rental payments | 1,479 | |||
Less amount representing interest | 49 | |||
Total principal | 1,430 | |||
Less current portion | 1,104 | |||
Long-term portion | $ | 326 |
9
5. | PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET |
Property and equipment, net, consisted of $3,321 and $3,204 at cost as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, less accumulated depreciation and amortization of $2,202 and $2,031, respectively, as of the same dates.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021; and $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. No impairment losses have been recognized through June 30, 2022.
6. | SAFE OBLIGATION |
On February 4, 2022 and in connection with the Merger discussed in Note 1, Organization and Nature of Operations, NPM and Second Sight entered into an agreement (“SAFE”) whereby Second Sight provided to NPM an investment advance of $8 million. If the Merger were to be terminated without completion, NPM would issue to Second Sight that number of shares of NPM Capital Stock equal to not less than 2.133% of the issued and outstanding shares of NPM capital stock assuming exercise or conversion of all outstanding vested and unvested options, warrants, and convertible securities. In the event NPM were to complete an equity financing within one year from the date of termination of the merger at a lower valuation, Second Sight would have been eligible to receive additional shares of NPM capital stock as set forth in the SAFE. If the Merger is completed, the SAFE will terminate. The agreement provided that the SAFE would termination if the Merger were to be successfully completed.
Under the terms of the SAFE, upon successfully completion of the Merger on August 30, 2022, the investment advance was eliminated.
As of June 30, 2022, the SAFE has been classified as a marked-to-market liability pursuant to ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, due to the potential variability at the time of share settlement. The carrying value of the SAFE was determined to approximate fair value, using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy, due to proximity to the issuance date and current probability of a successful merger.
Under the accounting for a business combination, the $8 million will adjust the purchase consideration.
7. | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY |
Common stock
NPM is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of common stock with no par value. At June 30, 2022, 12,202,824 shares of authorized common stock were issued and outstanding. Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock. Common stockholders have no pre-emptive rights to acquire additional shares of common stock or other securities. The common stock is not subject to redemption rights and carries no subscription or conversion rights. Dividends are at the discretion of the Board.
Warrants
NPM issued common stock and warrants (collectively, the “unit” or “units”) in 2019, 2020 and 2021 for $9.50 per unit. Outstanding warrants to purchase common stock were 3,006,086 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, which are classified in equity. Each warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock at $9.50 per share in whole or in part subject to typical adjustments for anti-dilution. The warrants expire 5 years from the date of issue and may be exercised on a cashless basis. The warrants qualify for an exception to derivative accounting and, accordingly, their value has not been bifurcated from the total unit purchase price.

8. | EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN |
The following table summarizes the stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022:
Total shares under option | Weighted Average Exercise Price | |||||||
Balance, December 31, 2021 | 1,504,624 | $ | 8.75 | |||||
Granted | - | $ | - | |||||
Exercised | (13,441 | ) | ||||||
Forfeited | (16,042 | ) | ||||||
Expired | (15,294 | ) | ||||||
Other adjustment | 74,000 | |||||||
Balance, June 30, 2022 | 1,533,847 | $ | 8.15 | |||||
Total vested and expected to vest | 1,533,847 | $ | 8.15 |
The total fair value of shares vested during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 was $394. The weighted-average remaining contractual term of options currently exercisable in years was 6.68 as of June 30, 2022.
Total compensation expense for stock option grants is included in expenses in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss and is allocated as follows:
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | |||||||||||||
Research and development | $ | 324 | $ | 326 | $ | 514 | $ | 649 | ||||||||
General and administrative | $ | 70 | $ | 68 | 220 | 195 | ||||||||||
Total | $ | 394 | $ | 394 | $ | 734 | $ | 844 |
As of June 30, 2022, total compensation cost related to unvested option awards not yet recognized was $1.18 million and the weighted-average period over which the compensation is expected to be recognized is 2.33 years.
Since options represent equity awards of NPM, such awards are fair valued as of the grant date for the purposes of measurement and recognition under GAAP. To measure the fair value of an option, the Black Scholes valuation model was utilized. The valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. No options were granted for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
9. | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN |
