Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Description of Operations and Principles of Consolidation

Sales and Servicesservices outside of these direct markets are made through a worldwide distributor network in over 4042 countries. The condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company's future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company's future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, rapid technological change, continued acceptance of the Company's products, stability of global financial markets, cybersecurity breaches and other disruptions that could compromise the Company’s information or results, business disruptions that are caused by natural disasters or pandemic events, management of international activities, competition from substitute products and larger companies, the Company’s ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals, government regulations and oversight, patent and other types of litigation, the Company’s ability to protect proprietary technology from counterfeit versions of the Company's products, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals.

 

OnIn January 30, March2020,the World Health Organization or WHO, announced a global health emergency because of the COVID-19 outbreak, and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin.

In March 2020, the WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak ishas negatively affectingaffected the United States and global economies. AsThe spread of the COVID-coronavirus, which caused a broad impact in 192020 outbreak continued to spread, governmental authorities ordered quarantines, shelter-in-place, andglobally, including restrictions on the conduct of business operations relatedtravel, shifting work force to the COVID-19 outbreak. In certain geographies, these measures remain inwork remotely and quarantine policies put into place on some level,by businesses and these measures and restrictionsgovernments, had and continue to have, an impacta material economic effect on the Company's business. The COVID-Company’s business during the year ended 19December 31, 2020. impact,Notably, healthcare facilities in many countries effectively banned elective procedures. Many of the Company’s products are used in aesthetic elective procedures and as such, the bans on elective procedures substantially reduced the Company’s sales and marketing efforts in the early months of the pandemic and led the Company to implement cost control measures. TheAlthough the Company’s revenues and profits have improved compared to the first, second, and third quarters of fiscal 2020, which were hard hit during the pandemic, and the overall economic outlook due to the COVID-19 outbreak also impacted the Company’s results of operations during thepandemic improves in nine2021, months ended September 30, 2020. The Company expects the COVID-19 outbreak continues to continuebe fluid and the aftermath of the business and economic disruptions due to affect itsthe COVID-19 is still uncertain, making it difficult to forecast the final impact it could have on the Company’s future operations, and those of third parties on which the Company relies, which could causeincluding disruptions in the Company’sCompany's supply chain and contract manufacturing operations. Though the shelter-in-place orders were lifted or eased allowing certain businesses to open up, government authorities may order additional restrictions, quarantines or shelter-in-place. The Company has commenced limited manufacturingcannot presently predict the scope and currently has inventory on hand forseverity of any impacts in future periods from the next 180-240 days to meet its forecasted demand, but the Company must be able to continue to have access to its supply chain to meet demand beyond that period.

Beginning in the second half of its first quarter of 2020, and through the date of this report, the Company has experienced decreasing levels of customer demand for its products and the on-going procedures performed with the existing installed base that utilize procedure based consumable products. As a result of COVID-19, some of its customers have been required to shelter-in-place and cease operation of their practice. In other cases, as aesthetic practices reopened and resumed treating patients, practitioners were obligated to implement new safety procedures resulting in fewer patients treated.

In responsebusiness shutdowns or disruptions due to the COVID-19 outbreak,pandemic, but the Company took actions to reduce expenses, including discontinuing nonessential services and programs, instituting cost controlsimpact on travel and entertainment, implementing further cost-cutting measures and evaluating whethereconomic activity such as the workforce is able to execute additional efficiency improvements’. For example, the directorspossibility of recession or financial market instability could have a material adverse effect on the Company's board of directors agreed to a 25% reduction in their fees, the Company's Chief Executive OfficerCompany’s business, revenue, operating results, cash flows and its President and Chief Operating Officer had a 25% reduction in their salaries and other members of management had significant reductions in their salaries, which will remain in place until such time as the Company's business operations and economic conditions improve.financial condition. The Company also instituted salary reductions for the remainder of its employees and initiated furloughs and subsequent reductions-in-force that initially affected approximately 42% of its workforce. Only 22% of the Company’s workforce was impacted as of the third quarter of 2020, as several previously furloughed positions ended and the employees have come backcontinues to work.

In addition, to facilitate the conservation of cash, bonuses owed to management from the 2019 Management Bonus Program were paid mostly in equity (Note 8) rather than in cash during the second quarter of 2020.

As a result of the events and impact surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company assessedassess whether any impairment of its goodwill or its long-lived assets hadhas occurred and has determined that no charges other than an impairment loss of $0.8$0.2 million on capitalized cloud computingimplementation costs related to the indefinite delay of the implementation of cloud-based enterprise resource planningcustomer relationship management (“CRM”) software had occurred as ofduring the September 30, 2020three months ended March 31, 2021.The Company’s assumptions about future conditions important to its assessment of potential impairment of its long-lived assets, and goodwill, including the impacts of the COVID–19 pandemic and other ongoing impacts to its, business, are subject to uncertainty, and the Company will continue to monitor these conditions in future periods as new information becomes available, and will update its analyses accordingly.

 

The Company has experienced a significant increase in sales of skincare products under the exclusive distribution agreement with ZO Skin Health, Inc. (“ZO”), which allows the Company to sell ZO’s skincare products in Japan. The reason for the increase in skincare products sales might have been the result of changes in customers’ spending habits to purchase more aesthetic treatments which could be applied at home due to limitations on in-person aesthetic procedures, social distancing and mask wearing requirements due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Future growth in sales of skincare products depends on the customers’ spending habits, which may revert to original spending habits after the COVID-19 pandemic. Such changes may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenue, operating results, and cash flows.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

 

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of its Condensed consolidated statements of financial position as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and 2019,2020, and its Condensed consolidated statements of results of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows for the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, and 2019.2020. The December 31, 20192020 condensedCondensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year or any other interim period. Presentation of certain prior year balances have been updated to conform with current year presentation. The accompanying condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s previously filed audited financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 16, 2020, and amended in a filing on Form 10-K/A with the SEC on April 14, 2020.

23, 2021.

 

Accounting Policies

 

These unaudited condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim financial statements. While these statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statement disclosures in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 filed with the SEC on March 16, 2020, and amended in a filing on Form 10-K/A with the SEC on April 14, 2020.23, 2021.

 

The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Unless otherwise noted, amounts presented within the Notesnotes to condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements refer to the Company’s continuing operations. Note 113 provides information about the Company’s adoption of the new accounting standard for credit losses.

debt with conversion and other options which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity.

 

The Company issued $138.3 million of convertible senior notes ("Notes" or "Convertible notes") in a private placement offering on March 5, 2021. The Convertible notes bear interest at a rate of 2.25% per year. In accordance with ASU 2020-06,DebtDebt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entitys Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40),” the Company recorded the Convertible notes in long-term debt with no separation between the Convertible notes and the conversion option. Each reporting period, the Company will determine whether any criteria is met for the note holders to have the option to redeem the Convertible notes early, which will result in a change in the classification of the Convertible notes to current liabilities.

The costs associated with issuance of the Convertible notes, including underwriters’ fees are presented in the Condensed consolidated balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the Convertible notes. The debt issuance costs are amortized over the life of the Convertible notes as additional non-cash interest expense.

In connection with issuance of the Convertible notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with certain option counterparties. The capped call transactions are generally designated to reduce the potential dilution of the Company's common stock upon any conversion of the Notes. The capped calls were purchased for $16.1 million and recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital in the Condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensedCondensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. 

 

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to warranty obligations, sales commission, allowance for credit losses, and sales allowances, valuation of inventories, fair value of goodwill, useful lives of property and equipment, impairment testing for long-lived-assets, implicit and incremental borrowing rates related to the Company’s leases, assumptions regarding variables used in calculating the fair value of the Company's equity awards, expected achievement of performance based vesting criteria, management performance bonuses, fair value of investments,assumptions used in operating and sales-type lease classification, the standalone selling price of the Company's products and services, the period of benefit used to capitalize and amortize contract acquisition costs, variable consideration, contingent liabilities, recoverability of deferred tax assets, residual value of leased equipment, useful life, lease term and effective income tax rates. Management bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Accounting for Leases as a Lessor

In the second quarter of 2020, the Company began leasing equipment to customers through a membership program where the customer pays a fixed monthly fee over the lease term. Along with the leased equipment, the membership program provides customers with a warranty service and a fixed amount of consumables per month for the term of the lease. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for qualifying lease components and associated non-lease components as a single component; accordingly, a lease component and an associated warranty service non-lease component are combined and accounted for as an operating lease.  The consumables do not qualify for the practical expedient and are accounted for as a separate non-lease component in accordance with Topic 606 on Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  The Company allocates the membership program contract consideration to each component proportionately on a relative standalone selling price basis.

The lease agreements are typically for three years; however, the customer has the ability to terminate the lease after twelve months with no penalty. As such, the Company has determined the initial term of the lease to be twelve-months, after which the lease converts to a month-to-month lease for up to an additional two years. Rental charges are a fixed monthly fee, paid at the beginning of each month, over the term of the lease.

All leases entered into to date under the membership program are classified as operating leases. The underlying asset in an operating lease arrangement is carried at depreciated cost within property and equipment, net, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the useful life of the leased asset and is recognized as cost of product revenue. The depreciable basis is the original cost of the equipment less the estimated residual value of the equipment at the end of the lease term.

The Company recognizes operating lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term and expenses deferred initial direct costs on the same basis. Operating lease revenue is included within product revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Impairment of equipment under operating leases is assessed on the same basis as other long-lived assets.

See Note 11 of the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding leasing arrangements. 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No.2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326):"Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected credit loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update are required to be applied using the modified retrospective method with an adjustment to accumulated deficit and are effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2020, including interim periods. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables, available for sale securities and held-to-maturity debt securities. An entity with available for sale securities and trade receivables will be required to use historical loss information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to determine expected lifetime credit losses. Pooling of assets with similar risk characteristics is also required. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 on a modified retrospective basis. Upon adoption, the standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company identified trade receivables and available-for-sale debt securities as impacted by the new guidance. However, the Company determined that the historical losses related to these available-for-sale debt securities are not material as the Company invests in high grade short-term securities.

The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses on trade receivables based on the credit quality of clients, current economic conditions, the age of the accounts receivable balances, historical loss information, and current conditions and forecasted information, and write-off amounts against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible. 

11

The Company’s allowance for credit losses increased from $1.4 million at December 31, 2019 to $1.5 million at September 30, 2020, due to increase in aged accounts receivable. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a provision for credit losses of $53,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, and wrote off $0.3 million and $1.5 million against the allowance for credit losses, respectively.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No.2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework- Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”, to improve the fair value measurement reporting of financial instruments. The amendments in this update require, among other things, added disclosure of the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update eliminate, among other things, disclosure of the reasons for and amounts of transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and an entity's valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is required for all amendments in this update except the added disclosures, which should be applied prospectively. The adoption of the amendments in this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted by the Company

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 “IncomeIncome Taxes (Topic 740)-Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”Taxes, to remove certain exceptions and improve consistency of application, including, among other things, requiring that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The amendmentsCompany adopted this guidance in this update will be effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2021,three with early adoption permitted.

The amendments in ASU No.2020-04 are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU No.2020-04 and the LIBOR transition on its consolidated financial statements. 

The Company reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Investments

The Company invests its cash primarily in money market funds and in highly liquid debt instruments of U.S. federal and municipal governments and their agencies, commercial paper and corporate debt securities. All highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; all highly liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months are classified as marketable investments. The majority of the Company’s cash and investments are held in U.S. banks and the Company's foreign subsidiaries maintain a limited amount of cash in their local banks to cover their short-term operating expenses.

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its marketable investments at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation at each balance sheet date. The Company’s marketable investments have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale securities. Investments with remaining maturities of more than one year are viewed by the Company as available to support current operations and are classified as current assets under the caption marketable investments in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Investments in available-for-sale debt securities are measured at fair value. Credit losses on impaired available-for-sale debt securities are recognized through an allowance for credit losses. Credit losses recognized on an available-for-sale debt security shouldderivatives or that do not reduceresult in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. The update also amends the net carrying amountaccounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the available-for-sale debt security below its fair value. Any changesnew guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in fair value unrelated to credit are recognized as an unrealized gaincash or loss in other comprehensive income.shares impact the computation of diluted earnings per share.

Note 3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy contains three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, in accordance with ASC 820, as follows:

 

● Level 1: inputs, which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

● Level 2: inputs, which include observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. For available-for-sale securities, the Company reviews trading activity and pricing as of the measurement date. When sufficient quoted pricing for identical securities is not available, the Company uses market pricing and other observable market inputs for similar securities obtained from various third-party data providers. These inputs either represent quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or have been derived from observable market data; and

 

● Level 3: inputs, which include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation.

 

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

Money market funds and U.S. Treasury bills are highly liquid investments and are actively traded. The pricing information on these investment instruments are readily available and can be independently validated as of the measurement date. This approach results in the classification of these securities as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. 

Corporate debt, U.S. government-backed securities, and commercial paper are measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The Company reviews trading activity and pricing for these investments as of each measurement date. When sufficient quoted pricing for identical securities is not available, the Company uses market pricing and other observable market inputs for similar securities obtained from various third party data providers. These inputs represent quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or these inputs have been derived from observable market data. This approach results in the classification of these securities as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Note 7. Revenue

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company recognizes revenue under ASC Topic 606.Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied either over time or at a point in time. Revenue from performance obligations that are transferred to customers over time accounted for approximately 17%12% and 13%18% respectively, of the Company’s total revenue for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and 2019.2020.

 

The Company has certain system sale arrangements that contain multiple products and services. For these bundled sale arrangements, the Company accounts for individual products and services as separate performance obligations if they are distinct. The Company’s products and services are distinct if a customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer, and if the Company’s promise to transfer the products or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the sale arrangements. The Company’s system sale arrangements can include all or a combination of the following performance obligations: the system and software license (considered as one performance obligation), system accessories (hand pieces), training, other accessories, extended service contracts, marketing services, and time and materials services.

 

For the Company’s system sale arrangements that include an extended service contract, the period of service commences at the expiration of the Company’s standard warranty offered at the time of the system sale. The Company considers the extended service contracts terms in the arrangements that are legally enforceable to be performance obligations. Other than extended service contracts and marketing services, which are satisfied over time, the Company generally satisfies all performance obligations at a point in time. Systems, system accessories (hand pieces), service contracts, training, and time and materials services are also sold on a stand-alone basis, and these performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price of the contract to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis.

 

Nature of Products and Services

 

Systems

 

Systems revenue is generated from the sale of systems and from the sale of upgrades to existing systems. A system consists of a console that incorporates a universal graphic user interface, a laser or other energy basedenergy-based module, control system software and high voltage electronics, as well as one or more hand pieces. In certain applications, the laser or other energy-based module is contained in the hand piece, such as with the Company’s Pearl and Pearl Fractional applications, rather than within the console.

 

The Company offers customers the ability to select the system that best fits their practice at the time of purchase and then to cost-effectively add applications to their system as their practice grows. This provides customers the flexibility to upgrade their systems whenever they choose and provides the Company with a source of additional Systems revenue.

 

The system or upgrade and the right to use the embedded software represent a single performance obligation as the software license is integral to the functionality of the system or upgrade.

 

The Company does

not12 identify calibration and installation services for systems other than enlighten as performance obligations because such services are immaterial in the context

For systems sold directly to end-customers that are credit approved, revenue is recognized when the Company transfers control to the end-customer, which occurs when the product is shipped to the customer or when the customer receives the product, depending on the nature of the arrangement. When collectability is not established in advance of receipt of payment from the customer, revenue is recognized upon the later of the receipt of payment or the satisfaction of the performance obligation. For systems sold through credit approved distributors, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment to the distributor.

 

16

The Company typically receives payment for its system consoles and other accessories within 30 days of shipment. Certain international distributor arrangements allow for longer payment terms.

 

Skincare products

The Company sells third-party manufactured skincare products in Japan. The third-party skincare products are purchased from a third-party manufacturer and sold to medical offices and licensed physicians. The Company warrants that the skincare products are free of significant defects in workmanship and materials for 90 days from shipment. These are typically sold in a separate contract as the only performance obligations. The Company acts as the principal in this arrangement, as the Company determines the price to charge customers for the skincare products and controls the products before they are transferred to the customer. Sales of skincare products are typically the subject of contracts in which the skincare products represent the sole performance obligations. The Company recognizes revenue for skincare products at a point in time.time upon shipment.

Consumables andother accessories

 

The Company classifies its customers' purchases of replacement cycles for truSculpt iD and truSculpt flex,, as well as replacement hand pieces, Titan and truSculpt 3D hand pieces, and single use disposable tips applicable to Secret PRO, Juliet, and Secret RF, as Consumable revenue, which provides the Company with a source of recurring revenue from existing customers. The Juliet and Secret RF products haveproducts' single use disposable tips which must be replaced after every treatment. Sales of these consumable tips further enhance the Company’s recurring revenue. The Company’s systems offer multiple hand pieces and applications, which allow customers to upgrade their systems. The Company classifies as product revenue the sales of systems, system upgrades, hand pieces, hand piece refills (applicable to Titan® and truSculpt) and the distribution of third-party manufactured skincare products.

 

Equipment leasing

 

The Company leases equipment to customers through membership programs and receives a fixed monthly fee over the term of the arrangement. The Company classifies its lease income as product revenue andrevenue. The Company recognizes itlease income over the term of the lease (Notes 1if the lease is classified as an operating lease. For agreements that grant customers the right to purchase the leased system, the Company typically classifies the lease as a sales-type lease as the Company has determined it is reasonably certain that the customer will exercise the purchase option. On the commencement of sales-type leases, the Company recognizes revenue upfront in product revenue and the corresponding receivables recorded in other current assets and prepaid expenses on the Condensed consolidated balance sheets (See Note 11). There was no revenue recognized for sales-type leases for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Revenue from equipment leases, which was accounted for as operating leases, was not material infor the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

 

Extended service contracts services

The Company offers post-warranty services to its customers through extended service contracts that cover parts and labor for a term of one, two, or three years. Service contract revenue is recognized over time, using a time-based measure of progress, as customers benefit from the service throughout the service period. The Company also offers services on a time-and-materials basis for systems and detachable hand piece replacements. Revenue related to services performed on a time-and-materials basis is recognized when performed. These post-warranty services serve as additional sources of recurring revenue from the Company’s installed product base.

 

Training

Sales of systems to customers include training on the use of the system to be provided within 180 days of purchase. The Company considers training a separate performance obligation as customers can immediately benefit from the training together with the customer’s system. Training is also sold separately from systems. The Company recognizes revenue for training when the training is provided. Training is not required for customers to use the systems.

 

13

The Company classifies as product revenue the sales of systems, system upgrades, hand pieces, hand piece refills (applicable to Titan® and truSculpt), equipment leasing and the distribution of third-party manufactured skincare products.

Customer Marketing Support

In North America, the Company offers marketing and consulting phone support to its customers across all system platforms. These customer marketing support services include a practice development model and marketing training, performed remotely with ongoing phone consultations for six months from date of purchase. The Company considers customer marketing support a separate performance obligation, and recognizes revenue over the six-month term of the contracts.

Significant Judgments

 

The determination of whether two or more contracts entered into at or near the same time with the same customer should be combined and accounted for as one contract may require the use of significant judgment. In making this determination, the Company considers whether the contracts are negotiated as a package with a single commercial objective, have price interdependencies, or promise goods or services that represent a single performance obligation.

 

While the Company’s purchase agreements do not provide customers with a contractual right of return, the Company maintains a sales allowance to account for potential returns or refunds as a reduction in transaction price at the time of sale. The Company estimates sales returns and other variable consideration based on historical experience.

 

The Company determines standalone selling price ("SSP") for each performance obligation as follows:

 

Systems: The SSPs for systems are based on directly observable sales in similar circumstances to similar customers.

 

Extended servicewarranty/Service contracts: SSP is based on observable price when sold on a standalone to similar customers.basis (by customer type).

Loyalty Program

The Company launchedhas a customer loyalty program during the third quarter of 2018 for qualified customers located in the U.S. and Canada. Under the loyalty program, customers accumulate points based on their purchasing levels which can be redeemed for such rewards as the right to attend the Company’s advanced training event for truSculpt, or a ticket for the Company’s annual forum. A customer’s account must be in good standing to receive the benefits of the rewards program. Rewards are earned on a quarterly basis and must be used in the following quarter. Customers receive a notification regarding their rewards tier by the fifth day of the following quarter. All unused rewards are forfeited. The fair value of the reward earned by loyalty program members is included in accrued liabilities and recorded as a reductionreduction. of net revenue at the time the reward is earned. As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019, 2020,the accrualliability for the loyalty program included in accrued liabilities was $0.4 million and $0.2$0.3 million, respectively.

 

Deferred Sales Commissions

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract, which consist primarily of commissions and related payroll taxes, are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit, except for costs that are recognized when product is sold. The Company uses the portfolio method to recognize the amortization expense related to these capitalized costs related to initial contracts and such expense is recognized over a period associated with the revenue of the related portfolio, which is generally two to three years.

Total capitalized costs as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020 respectively, were $3.4 million, and $4.6 millionrespectively, and are included in Otherother long-term assets in the Company’s condensedCondensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 9. Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net lossearnings per share (“EPS”) is computed usingbased on the weighted-averageweighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. In periods of net income, diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive effect of in-the-money equity awards (stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and employee stock purchase plan contributions), whichDiluted EPS is calculatedcomputed based on the weighted average share price for each fiscalnumber of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, stock awards, shared performance stock awards, and conversion shares under the Convertible notes.

 

Diluted earningsAs of March 31, 2021, the Company’s Convertible notes were convertible into 4,167,232 shares of common stock. The Company receives shares or cash, at its option, under the capped call transactions which will always be anti-dilutive to EPS. For the three months ended March 31,2021 and 2020, basic loss per common share isand diluted loss per common share are the same as basic earnings per share for the periods in which the Company had a net loss because the inclusion of outstanding common stock equivalentsany potentially issuable shares would be anti-dilutive.

Note 10. Income Taxes

 

The Company calculates the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to ordinary income or loss for the interim reporting period. When applicable, the year-to-date tax provision reflects adjustments from discrete tax items.

For the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company's income tax expense were $0.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively,was $258,000, compared to incomethe tax expense of $73,000 and income tax benefit of $55,000$78,000 for the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2019, March 31, 2020.respectively.


The Company's income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 is due primarily to income taxes in foreign jurisdictions. As the Company's U.S. operations are projecting to be in a taxable loss position in fiscal year 2020, and based on all available objectively verifiable evidencetheThe Company believes it is more likely than not that the tax benefits of the U.S. losses incurred will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company will continuecontinues to maintain a full valuation allowance on theits U.S. deferred tax assets.

On March 27, 2020,the U.S. federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The CARES Act changed several of the existing U.S. corporate income tax laws by, among other things, increasing the amount of deductible interest, allowing companies to carry back certain Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) and increasing the amount of NOLs that corporations can use to offset income. The CARES Act did not have a material impact on the Company's income tax provision, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and related taxes payable. The Company is currently assessing the future implications of these provisions within the CARES Act on the Company's consolidated financial statements, but does not expect the impact to be material.

 

 

Note 11. Leases

 

The Company is a party to certain operating and finance leases for vehicles, office space and storages facilities. The Company’s material operating leases consist of office space, as well as storage facilities and finance leases consist of automobiles. The Company’s facility leases generally have remaining terms of 1 to 10 years, and some facility leases of which include options to renew the leases for up to 5 years. The Company leases space for operations in the United States, Japan, Belgium, France and Spain. In addition to the above facility leases, the Company also routinely leases automobiles for certain sales and field service employees under finance leases.

 

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, the Company estimates the incremental secured borrowing rates corresponding to the maturities of the leases. The Company based the rate estimates on prevailing financial market conditions, credit analysis, and management judgment.

 

20

The Company recognizes expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, tenant incentives used to fund leasehold improvements are recognized when earned and reduce the Company’s right-of-use (“ROU”) asset related to the lease. These are amortized through the right-of-useROU asset as reductions of expense over the lease term.

In June 2020, the Company amended its Japan Tokyo office lease by extending the lease by three years through 2024.

On July 9, 2020,the Company amended its lease agreement for its headquarters building located at 3420 Bayshore Boulevard, Brisbane, California. The amendment provides for the following:

the extension of the lease term, with the extended term to begin on February 1, 2023and continue until January 31, 2028;

the abatement of the monthly base rent for the four month period beginning September 1, 2020and ending December 31, 2020;

the amendment of monthly base rent during the extension term to approximately $0.2 million for January 2021 with annual increases of 3.5% thereafter; and

the waiver by the Company of its early termination right in the lease.

On or after March 20, 2024, the Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at the Company’s option, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, at least $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the relevant redemption notice date.

If a fundamental change occurs, note holders have the option to require the Company to repurchase any portion or all of their Convertible notes in $1,000 principal increments for cash. The price for such repurchase is calculated as 100% of the principal amounts of Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change repurchase date.

The Convertible notes are general senior unsecured obligations that rank senior to any of the Company’s indebtedness that is explicitly subordinated to the Notes. The Notes have equal rank in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not subordinated to the Notes. The Notes will be junior to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The Notes do not contain any financial or operating covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the issuance of other indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by the Company.

The estimated fair value of the Convertible notes was approximately $156.9 million as of March 31, 2021, which the Company determined through consideration of market prices. The fair value is classified as Level 2, as defined in Note 3.

In connection with issuance of the Convertible notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with certain option counterparties. The capped call transactions are generally designated to reduce the potential dilution of the Company's common stock upon any conversion or settlement of the Notes or to offset any cash payment the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount upon conversion of the Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction or offset subject to a cap based on the cap price. If the market price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds the cap price of the capped calls transaction, then the Company’s stock would experience some dilution and/or the capped call would not fully offset the potential cash payments, in each case to the extent the then-market price per share of its common stock exceeds the cap price. Under the capped call transactions, the Company purchased from the option counterparties capped call options that in the aggregate relate to the total number of shares of the Company's common stock underlying the Convertible notes, with a strike price equal to the conversion price of the Convertible notes and with an initial cap price equal to $45.5350, which represents a 75% premium over the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock of $26.02 per share on March 4,2021, with certain adjustments to the settlement terms that reflect standard antidilution provisions. The capped-call transactions expire over 40 consecutive scheduled trading days ended on March 12, 2026. The capped calls were purchased for $16.1 million and recorded to stockholders’ equity. The Company evaluated the capped call transaction under authoritative accounting guidance and determined that it should be accounted for as a separate transaction and classified as a net reduction to Additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity with no recurring fair value measurement recorded.

The Company early adopted ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). In accordance with Subtopic 470-20 and 815-40, as revised by ASU 2020-06, the Company records the Convertible notes in long-term debt with no separation between the Notes and the conversion option. Each reporting period, the Company will determine whether any criteria is met for the note holders to have the option to redeem the Notes early, which could result in a change in the classification of the Notes to current liabilities.

These measureswork remotely and restrictionsquarantine policies put into place by businesses and governments, had an impacta material economic effect on the Company'sCompany’s business whichduring the year ended December 31, 2020. Notably, healthcare facilities in many countries effectively banned elective procedures. Many of the Company’s products are used in aesthetic elective procedures and as such, the bans on elective procedures substantially reduced the Company’s sales and marketing efforts in the early months of the pandemic and led the Company to implement cost control measures,measures. Although the Company’s operation and results of operations duringhave significantly improved as the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company expectseconomic outlook due to the COVID-19 outbreak to continue to affect its operations and those of third parties on which the Company relies, which could cause disruptionspandemic improves in its supply chain and contract manufacturing operations. Though the shelter-in-place orders were lifted or eased allowing certain businesses to open up, government authorities may order additional restrictions, quarantines or shelter-in-place. As a result, the extent of2021, the COVID-19 impact on the Company's supply chain and its future revenues is difficult for the Company to quantify at this time. The Company has commenced limited manufacturing and currently has inventory on hand for the next 180-240 days to meet its forecasted demand, but the Company must be able to continue to have access to its supply chain to meet demand beyond that period.

Beginning in the second half of its first quarter of 2020, and through the date of this report, the Company has experienced decreasing levels of customer demand for its products. As a result of COVID-19, some of its customers are required to shelter-in-place and are not working.

The Company's customers not subject to shelter-in-place requirements are performing fewer procedures and their customers are mostly focused on medically necessary procedures that should not be delayed. Non-urgent, non-essential procedures such as those attendant to our products are often cancelled or delayed. As a result of fewer aesthetic procedures being performed and anxiety about the economic future, the Company's customers may cancel orders for laser systems or use fewer consumables. Some of the Company's customers will feel less confident about making investments in their practices and focus on retaining their cash. As a result of cash conservation efforts by its customers, the Company may also encounter problems collecting on its receivables. The COVID-19 pandemicoutbreak continues to be fluid and the aftermath of the business and economic disruptions due to the COVID-19 is still uncertain, making it difficult to forecast the final impact it could have on the Company’s future operations, including disruptions in the Company's supply chain and contract manufacturing operations. The Company cannot presently predict the scope and severity of further potentialany impacts in future periods from the business shutdowns or disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but if the Companyimpact on economic activity such as the possibility of recession or any of the third parties with whom the Company engages were to experience shutdowns or other business disruptions, the Company’s ability to conduct business in the manner and on the timelines presently planned could be materially and negatively impacted, whichfinancial market instability could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, and the Company’s revenues,revenue, operating results, cash flows and financial condition. The factorsCompany continues to assess whether any impairment of its goodwill or its long-lived assets has occurred, and trends relatedhas determined that no charges other than an impairment loss of $0.2 million on capitalized implementation costs of cloud-based CRM software during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company’s assumptions about future conditions important to its assessment of potential impairment of its long-lived assets, and goodwill, including the saleimpacts of the Company’s productsCOVID–19 pandemic and consumables may also impact demand for service contracts. A reduction in customer orders would reduce the amount of revenue thatother ongoing impacts to its business, are subject to uncertainty, and the Company expectswill continue to generate.monitor these conditions in future periods as new information becomes available, and will update its analyses accordingly. 

 

The Company'sCompany has experienced a significant increase in sales of skincare products under the exclusive distribution agreement with ZO Skin Health, Inc., which allows the Company to sell ZO’s skincare products in Japan. The reason for the increase in skincare products sales might have been the result of changes in customers’ patients are also impacted by the economic outlookspending habits to purchase more aesthetic treatments which could be applied at home due to limitations on in-person aesthetic procedures, social distancing and mask wearing requirements due to the currentCOVID-19 pandemic. Elective aesthetic procedures are lessFuture growth in sales of a priority than other items for those patients that have lost their jobs, are furloughed, have reduced work or haveskincare products depends on the customers’ spending habits, which may revert to allocate their cash to other priorities. The Company expects that many of the patients of its customers will return slowly as the economic environment improves and revenue from its customers will begin to improve again as a result of the economic conditions improving and more procedures being performed. Additionally, the continued spread oforiginal spending habits after the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely impact our clinical trial operations, including our ability to recruit and retain patients and principal investigators and site staff who, as healthcare providers,pandemic. Such changes may have heightened exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic if an outbreak occurs in their geography.

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company took actions to reduce expenses, including discontinuing nonessential services and programs, instituting controls on travel and entertainment, implementing further cost-cutting measures and evaluating whether improved efficiencies can be obtained in its workforce. For example, the directors on the Company's board of directors agreed to a 25% reduction in their fees, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and its President and Chief Operating Officer had a 25% reduction in their salaries and other members of management had significant reductions in their salaries, which will remain in place until such time as the Company's business operations and economic conditions improve. The Company also instituted salary reductions for the remainder of its employees and furloughs or reductions-in-force that initially affected approximately 42% of its workforce. Twenty-two percent (22%) of the workforce was impacted as of the end of the third quarter of 2020. In addition, in order to further conserve cash, bonuses owed to management from the 2019 Management Bonus Program were paid mostly in equity (see Note 8 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) rather than in cash. 

While the Company has continued to operate with remote employees and essential employees on site, an extended implementation of this Governmental mandate could impact its ability to operate effectively and conduct ongoing future manufacturing or research and development. In assessing its own cash conservation options the Company has reduced its employees’ work hours, furloughed employees and implemented a reduction-in-force. The Company may also solicit voluntary leaves of absence from its employees as the Company implements cash conservation strategies. Its ongoing operations may be impacted as a result of employees assuming additional roles and responsibilities within its organization and the Company would have fewer resources available to run its operations, which would reduce its expenses but could also negatively impact its business operations and revenue as a result. The Company may also encounter voluntary departures of key employees due to any of the foregoing actions that Company undertakes.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is highly uncertain and subject to change. This impact could have a material adverse impact on its liquidity, capital resources, operations and business and those of the third parties on which Company relies. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak impacts its results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 outbreak and the actions to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or treat its impact, among others. The Company does not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, while the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of, the COVID-19 outbreak pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the global financial markets may reduce its ability to raise additional capital through equity linked or debt financings, which could negatively impact its short-term and long-term liquidity and its ability to operate on a timely basis, or at all. 

On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. The primary provisions of the CARES Act applicable to us include;

compensation, benefits, and payroll relief for employers;

certain amendments to the limitations on the deductibility of interest contained in Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for taxable years beginning in 2019 and 2020; and

an allowance of net operating loss carrybacks for taxable years beginning in 2018 and before 2021.

The Company continuously evaluates how the benefits from the CARES Act and other pandemic-driven governmental legislation and programs would impact its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On April 22, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $7.1 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the CARES Act. The Company believes that the current economic uncertainty makes the loan necessary to support ongoing operations.

The PPP loan, which is in the form of a promissory note, dated April 21, 2020, between the Company and Silicon Valley Bank as the lender, matures on April 21, 2022 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing in six months. There is no prepayment penalty. Under the terms of the PPP, all or a portion of the principal may be forgiven if the loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, such as payroll costs, benefits, rent, and utilities. The Company applied the proceeds of the loan to the list of enumerated items covered under the CARES Act that allow for a significant portion of the loan to be forgiven. However the Company can provide no assurance that the loan will be forgiven and may need to pay the principal and interest of the PPP loan back as a result. With respect to any portion of the loan that is not forgiven, the loan will be subject to customary provisions for a loan of this type, including customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breaches of the provisions of the loan. 

There are risks and uncertainty regarding the PPP loan as the Company may be deemed ineligible to receive the PPP loan, and the Company may be required to repay the PPP loan in its entirety and could be subject to penalties. In addition, with respect to any portion of the PPP loan not forgiven, the Company may default on payment or breach provisions of the loan. The PPP loan will be derecognized upon repayment of the loan in accordance with its terms and/or upon confirmation of forgiveness from the SBA.

On July 9, 2020, the Company and Silicon Valley Bank entered into a Loan and Security Agreement. The agreement provides for a four-year secured revolving loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million. In order to draw on the full amount, the Company must satisfy certain liquidity ratios. If the Company is unable to meet these liquidity ratios, then availability under the revolving line is calculated as 80% of the Company’s qualifying accounts receivable. The Company must also meet certain quarterly revenue targets on a trailing twelve-month basis as part of the financial covenants. This clause is subject to renegotiation at the beginning of each fiscal year. The proceeds of the revolving loans may be used for general corporate purposes. The Company’s obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. On the same day, the Company terminated its undrawn revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. The terms of the Silicon Valley Bank Loan and Security Agreement include restrictive covenants, such as limitationseffect on the Company’s ability to incur additional debtrevenue, operating results and certain operating restrictions that could adversely impact its ability to conduct business.cash flows.

 

Critical accounting policies, significant judgments and use of estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes requires the Company to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company has based its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company periodically reviews its estimates and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, its financial condition or results of operations will be affected.

 

An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that its critical accounting policies reflect the more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its audited consolidated financial statements.

The accounting policies and estimates that the Company considers to be critical, subjective, and requiring judgment in their application are summarized in “Item 7-Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 filed with the SEC on March 16, 2020, as amended on April 14, 2020. There23, 2021. Except the new policies explained below, there have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that are of significance, or potential significance, to the Company.

 

AsThe Company established new accounting policies to account for the Convertible notes and related transactions during the first quarter of 2021.

The Company issued $138.3 million of convertible senior notes in a private placement offering on March 5, 2021. The notes bear interest at a rate of 2.25% per year. In accordance with ASU 2020-06, the Company recorded the Notes in long-term debt with no separation between the notes and the conversion option. Each reporting period, the Company will determine whether any criteria are met for the note holders to have the option to redeem the notes early, which will result in a change in the classification of the eventsnotes to current liabilities.

The issuance costs related to the Convertible notes are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the Convertible notes..

24

In connection with issuance of the notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with certain option counterparties. The capped call transactions are generally designated to reduce the potential dilution of the Company's common stock upon any conversion of the notes. The capped calls were purchased for $16.1 million and impact surroundingrecorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity.

Basic loss per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the COVID-19 pandemic,weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the respective period in accordance with ASC 260. Diluted loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, basic loss per common share and diluted loss per common share are the same as any potentially dilutive shares would be anti-dilutive to the periods. See Note 9 the unaudited Condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item I, Part 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company assessed whether any impairment of its goodwill or its long-lived assets had occurred. The Company recognizedoccurred and has determined that no charges other than an impairment loss of $0.8$0.2 million on capitalized implementation costs of cloud computing costs related to implementationwere deemed necessary under applicable accounting standards as of cloud-based enterprise resource planning software during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. The Company’s assumptions about future conditions important to its assessment of potential impairment of its long-lived assets, and goodwill, including the impacts of the COVID–19 pandemic and other ongoing impacts to its business, are subject to uncertainty, and the Company will continue to monitor these conditions in future periods as new information becomes available, and will update its analyses accordingly.

��

As the Company's U.S. operations are projecting to be in a taxable loss position in fiscal year 2020, and based on all available objectively verifiable evidence during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company believes it is more likely than not that the tax benefits of the U.S. losses incurred will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company will continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on the U.S. deferred tax assets.

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The CARES Act changed several of the existing U.S. corporate income tax laws by, among other things, increasing the amount of deductible interest, allowing companies to carryback certain Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) and increasing the amount of NOLs that corporations can use to offset income. The CARES Act did not have a material impact on the Company's third-quarter income tax provision, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and related taxes payable. The Company is currently assessing the future implications of these provisions within the CARES Act on its consolidated financial statements, but does not expect the impact to be material.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s principal source of liquidity is cash generated from maturitynet proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible notes and sales of marketable investments, cash generated from the issuance of common stock through exercise of stock options net proceeds from a public offering and the Company’s employee stock purchasing program. On July 9, 2020, the Company and Silicon Valley Bank entered into a Loan and Security Agreement. The agreement provides for a four-year secured revolving loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million. In order to draw on the full amount, the Company must satisfy certain liquidity ratios. If the Company is unable to meet these liquidity ratios, then availability under the revolving line is calculatedprogram as 80% of the Company’s qualifying accounts receivable. The Company must also meet certain quarterly revenue   targets on a trailing twelve-month basiswell as part of the financial covenants. This clause is subject to renegotiation at the beginning of each year. The proceeds of the revolving loans may be used for general corporate purposes.

On April 22, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $7.1 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the CARES Act. The loan, which is in the form of a promissory note dated April 21, 2020, between the Company and Silicon Valley Bank as the lender, matures on April 21, 2022 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing October 2020. There is no prepayment penalty. Under the terms of the PPP, all or a portion of the principal may be forgiven if the loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, such as payroll costs, benefits, rent, and utilities. The Company applied the proceeds of the loan to the list of enumerated items covered under the CARES Act that allow for a significant portion of the loan to be forgiven. However the Company can provide no assurance that the loan will be forgiven. The PPP loan will be derecognized upon repayment of the loan in accordance with it terms and/or upon confirmation of forgivenesscash generated from the SBA.

The majority of the Company’s cash and investmentscash equivalent are held in U.S. banks and its foreign subsidiaries maintain a limited amount of cash in their local banks to cover their short-term operating expenses.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

A summary of the key market risks facing the Company is disclosed below. For a detailed discussion, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2020, as amended on April 14, 2020, the Company’s reports and registration statements filed and furnished from time to time with the SEC, including the S-3 and Prospectus Supplement related to the Company’s recent public offering filed on April 2 and 20, 2020, respectively, and other announcements the Company makes from time to time.

Interest Rate and Market Risk

The primary objective of the Company’s investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income the Company receives from investments without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, the Company maintains its portfolio of cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments in a variety of high quality securities, including U.S. treasuries, U.S. government agencies, corporate debt, cash deposits, money market funds, commercial paper, non-U.S. government agency securities, and municipal bonds. The securities are classified as available-for-sale and consequently are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The weighted average maturity of the Company’s portfolio as of September 30, 2020 was approximately 0.2 years. If interest rates rise, the market value of its investments may decline, which could result in a realized loss if the Company is forced to sell an investment before its scheduled maturity. A hypothetical increase in interest rate by one percentage point would have resulted in no impact on the Company’s total investment portfolio.

On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. These reforms may cause LIBOR to cease to exist, new methods of calculating LIBOR to be established or the establishment of an alternative reference rate(s). These consequences cannot be entirely predicted and could have an adverse impact on the market value for or value of LIBOR-linked securities, loans, and other financial obligations or extensions of credit held by the Company. Changes in market interest rates may influence returns on financial investments and could reduce its earnings and cash flows.

The uncertain financial markets could result in a tightening in the credit markets, a reduced level of liquidity in many financial markets, and extreme volatility in fixed income and credit markets. The credit ratings of the securities the Company has invested in could further deteriorate and may have an adverse impact on the carrying value of these investments.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had not drawn on the credit facility.Capped Call transactions.

 

The Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank contains customary affirmative covenants, such as financial statement reporting requirements and delivery of borrowing base certificates, as well as customary covenants that restrict ourthe Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, sell certain assets, guarantee obligations of third parties, declare dividends, or make certain distributions, and undergo a merger or consolidation or certain other transactions. The Loan and Security Agreement also contains certain financial condition covenants, including maintaining a quarterly minimum revenue of $90.0 million, determined in accordance with GAAP on a trailing twelve (12) monthtwelve-month basis. This quarterly minimum revenue requirement is currently being renegotiated with SVB as of March 31, 2021.

 

On March 4, 2021, the Loan and Security Agreement dated July 9, 2020 was amended to (i) permit the Company to issue the Convertible notes and perform its obligations in connection therewith, and (ii) permit the Capped Call transactions.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had not drawn on the SVB Revolving Line of Credit and the Company is in compliance with all financial covenants of the SVB Revolving Line of Credit.

Commitments and Contingencies

As of the date of this report, there were no material changes to the Company’s contractual obligations and commitments outside the ordinary course of business since March 23, 2021, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on 2020 Form 10-K.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

A summary of the key market risks facing the Company is disclosed below. For a detailed discussion, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 23, 2021 and other announcements the Company makes from time to time.

Interest Rate and Market Risk

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had not drawn on the Original Revolving Line of Credit, as amended. Overall interest rate sensitivity is primarily influenced by any amount borrowed on the line of credit and the prevailing interest rate on the line of credit facility. The effective interest rate on the line of credit facility is based on a floating per annum rate equal to the Prime rate. The Prime rate was 3.25% as of March 31, 2021, and accordingly the Company may incur additional expenses if the Company has an outstanding balance on the line of credit and the Prime rate increases in future periods.

Inflation

 

The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations. If the Company’s costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, the Company may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. The Company’s inability or failure to do so could harm the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

Foreign Exchange Fluctuations

 

The Company generates revenue in Japanese Yen, Euros, Australian Dollars, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds, and Swiss Francs. Additionally, a portion of the Company’s operating expenses, and assets and liabilities are denominated in each of these currencies. Therefore, fluctuations in these currencies against the U.S. dollar could materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations upon translation of the Company’s revenue denominated in these currencies, as well as the re-measurement of the Company’s international subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars. The Company has historically not engaged in hedging activities relating to the Company’s foreign currency denominated transactions.

 

 

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

An evaluation as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures.” Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act defines “disclosure controls and procedures” as controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

 

Attached as exhibits to this Quarterly Report are certifications of the Company’s CEO and CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. This Controls and Procedures section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The Company implemented certain controls related to the adoption of FASB ASC 326 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, effective January 1, 2020.Convertible notes issued in the three months ended March 31, 2021. These controls were designed and implemented to ensure the completeness and accuracy over financial reporting. With the exception of thethese additional controls, implemented for FASB ASC 326 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, and Controls over lessor arrangements, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Accordingly, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the Company’s disclosure control system are met. As set forth above, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of the Company’s disclosure control system were met.

RISK FACTORS

 

Other than as set forth below, thereThere are no material changes from the Risk Factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019,2020, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2020, and amended in a filing with the SEC on Form 10-K/A on April 14, 2020.

Investing in the Company’s common shares involves a high degree of risk. The following risk factors describe circumstances or events that could have a negative effect on to the Company business, financial condition or operating results. You should consider the following risks carefully, together with all the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including to the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, before you invest in Company’s common shares. If any of the following risks occur, the Company’s business, financial condition, or operating results could be adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our common shares could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently believe are not material could also impair to the Company’s business, financial condition or operating results

Risk Related to COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has, and may for the foreseeable future, materially and adversely affected our business and our financial results. The COVID-19 pandemic has materially and adversely impacted our business and we expect the impact to continue through at least the duration of the pandemic as regions respond to local conditions. To date, the impact includes: a) the deferral of procedures using our products, b) disruptions or restrictions on the ability of many of the Company's employees and of third parties on which we rely, to work effectively, including “stay-at-home” orders and similar government actions; and c) temporary closures of our facilities and of the facilities of the Company's customers and suppliers.

As jurisdictions throughout the world continue to respond to the pandemic, the degree of the foregoing impacts may increase in scope or magnitude or the Company may experience additional adverse effects in one or more regions. Any other outbreaks of contagious diseases or other adverse public health developments in countries where the Company operates or where its customers or suppliers are located could also have a material and adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, customers and their patients have been, and in certain regions continue to be, required, or are choosing, to defer elective procedures in which the Company's products otherwise could be used, and many facilities that specialize in the procedures in which the Company's products otherwise could be used have temporarily closed and in some cases continue to be temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours. In addition, even after the pandemic subsides or governmental orders no longer prohibit or recommend against performing such procedures, patients may continue to defer such procedures due to personal concerns. Further, facilities at which its products typically are used may not reopen or, even if they reopen, patients may elect to have procedures performed at facilities that are, or are perceived to be, lower-risk, such as private surgery centers, and the Company's products may not be approved at such facilities, and the Company may be unable to have the Company's products approved for use at such facilities on a timely basis, or at all. The effect of the pandemic on the broader economy could also negatively affect demand for elective procedures using its products, both in the near- and long-term. Workforce limitations and travel restrictions resulting from government actions taken to contain the spread of COVID-19 have and will continue to adversely affect almost every aspect of its business. If a significant percentage of the Company's workforce, or of the workforce of third parties on which the Company relies, cannot work, including because of illness or travel or government restrictions, its operations will be negatively affected. Because of government restrictions and social distancing guidelines in many countries around the world, there is an increased reliance on working from home for the Company's workforce and on the workforce of third parties on which the Company rely. For example, most of the Company's sales personnel and third party agents currently are working largely using virtual and online engagement tools and tactics, which may be less effective than its typical in-person sales and marketing programs. In addition, the Company reduced access to its hands-on customer trainings, which, in turn, adversely impacted the Company's ability to educate and train customers on the proper use of the Company's products, which may make surgeons less comfortable using, and therefore less likely to use, the Company's products. The Company expects that “stay-at-home” orders will also limit its ability to develop, and therefore launch, the products the Company believes will drive our future revenue growth on the timelines the Company anticipated previously, or at all, and could also delay the planned launch of products in 2021 and beyond. It may also cause the Company not to submit required filings on its previous time tables, including with the FDA, or other regulatory bodies, both in the U.S. and outside the U.S. The continued spread of COVID-19 has adversely impacted the Company's clinical trial operations in the United States. In addition, changes impacting workforce function at the FDA and other regulatory bodies, as well as changes impacting workforce function at the facilities at which the Company seeks to have new products approved for use, could adversely impact the timing of when the Company's new products are cleared for marketing and approved for use, either of which would adversely impact the timing of its ability to sell these new products and would have a material and adverse effect on the Company's revenue growth.

Further, disruptions in the manufacture and distribution of the Company's products or in its supply chain may occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including for the reasons above, or other events that result in staffing shortages, production slowdowns, stoppages, or disruptions in delivery systems, any of which could materially and adversely affect the Company's ability to manufacture or distribute its products, or to obtain the raw materials and supplies necessary to manufacture and distribute our products, in a timely manner, or at all.

The Company may also experience other unknown adverse impacts from COVID-19 that cannot be predicted. For example, customers and other facilities at which the Company sells its products may renegotiate their purchase prices, including as a result of, or the perception that they may be suffering, financial difficulty as a result of the pandemic. Similarly, facilities at which the Company seeks to sell its products in the future may require price reductions relative to the price at which the Company previously expected to sell its products. Reduction in the prices at which the Company sells products to existing customers may have a material and adverse effect on its future financial results and reductions in the prices at which the Company expected to sell products would have a material and adverse effect on its expectations for revenue growth.

Further, the global capital markets experienced, and the Company expects will continue to experience, disruption and volatility due to the COVID-19 pandemic, adversely impacting access to capital not only for the Company, but also for its customers and suppliers who need access to capital. Their inability to access capital in a timely manner, or at all, could adversely impact demand for its products and/or adversely impact its ability to manufacture or supply its products, any of which could have a material and adverse effect on the Company's business.

The Company may be deemed ineligible to receive the PPP loan, and the Company may be required to repay the PPP loan in its entirety and could be subject to penalties. In addition, with respect to any portion of the PPP loan not forgiven, the Company may default on payment or breach provisions of the PPP loan.

On April 22, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $7.1 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The Company believes that the current economic uncertainty makes the loan necessary to support ongoing operations.

The application for these funds required the Company to, in good faith, certify that the current economic uncertainty made the loan request necessary to support the ongoing operations of the Company. Subsequently released guidance instructs all applicants and recipients to take into account their current business activity and the Company's ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support ongoing operations in a manner that is not significantly detrimental to their business. On April 28, 2020, in press conference remarks, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Treasury stated that the SBA intends to perform a review of PPP loans over $2.0 million. The required certification made by the Company is subject to interpretation.  If, despite the good-faith belief that given the Company’s circumstances the Company satisfied all eligible requirements for the PPP loan, it is later determined the Company was ineligible to apply for and receive the PPP loan, the Company may be required to repay the PPP loan in its entirety and the Company could be subject to additional penalties.

The loan, which is in the form of a promissory note, dated April 21, 2020, between the Company and Silicon Valley Bank as the lender (the “Loan”), matures on April 21, 2022 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing in six months. There is no prepayment penalty. Under the terms of the PPP, all or a portion of the principal may be forgiven if the Loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, such as payroll costs, benefits, rent, and utilities. No assurance can be provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the Loan in whole or in part. With respect to any portion of the Loan that is not forgiven, the Loan will be subject to customary provisions for a loan of this type, including customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breaches of the provisions of the Loan. The PPP loan will be derecognized upon repayment of the loan in accordance with it terms and/or upon confirmation of forgiveness from the SBA.

A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease, such as COVID-19, or coronavirus, may materially and adversely affect the Company's business and financial results.

The recent outbreak of COVID-19 originated in Wuhan, China, in late 2019 and has since spread globally, including to the United States, Europe, Asia and South America, where the Company currently sells its products. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Such events have resulted and the Company expects, will continue to result, in a period of business disruption. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, some of the Company's customers are being required to shelter-in-place and are not working. In cases where the Company's customers are working, they are performing fewer procedures. When they are performing procedures, customers are mostly focused on medically necessary procedures that should not be delayed. Non-urgent, non-essential procedures are getting cancelled or delayed. As a result of fewer aesthetic procedures being performed and anxiety about the economic future, the Company's customers may cancel orders for laser systems or will use less consumables. Some of the Company's customers will feel less confident about making investments in their practices and focus on retaining their cash. As a result of cash conservation efforts by the Company's customers, the Company may also encounter problems collecting on its receivables, which will impact the Company's cash position and could result in negative cash flows.

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company has recently taken action to reduce the expense associated with its workforce which could negatively affect the Company’s operations and the morale of its employees.

In response to the COVID-2019 pandemic, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President and Chief Operating Officer have each agreed to a 25% reduction in their salaries and other members of management have also agreed to significant reductions in their salaries, until such time as the Company’s business operations and economic conditions improve. The Company has also instituted salary reductions for the remainder of its employees and furloughs or reductions-in-force that have affected approximately 42% of the Company’s workforce. Twenty-two percent (22%) of the workforce was impacted as of the third quarter of 2020. The actions the Company has taken may negatively impact the morale of its workforce, leading to a decrease in the quality of work or the voluntary departure of additional employees. Workers placed on furlough may find other jobs and decide not to work at the Company in future. Although the Company expects the roles of its furloughed and former employees will be performed by others for the time being, their skills sets may not allow them to perform the work as proficiently or efficiently as others. As a result of the actions the Company has taken to preserve cash, its workforce may become strained, morale may decline and the quality of work may suffer, all of which could negatively affect the Company’s business operations and adversely impact its revenue as a result.

A reduction in customer orders would reduce the amount of revenue that the Company expect to obtain. The Company expects the amount of revenue to increase slightly in thefourthquarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter 2020, but its extent cannot be quantified at this time.

The aforementioned factors and trends may also impact demand for the Company's service contracts. The Company's customers’ patients are also feeling the economic impact of the current epidemic. Elective aesthetic procedures are less of a priority than other items for those patients that have lost their jobs, are furloughed, have reduced work hours or have to allocate their cash to other priorities. As result, the patients of the Company's customer may delay or cancel entirely their aesthetic procedures. Additionally, the continued spread of COVID-19 could adversely impact the Company's clinical trial operations, including the Company's ability to recruit and retain patients and principal investigators and site staff who, as healthcare providers, may have heightened exposure to COVID-19 if an outbreak occurs in their geography. The spread of COVID-19, or another infectious disease, could also result in delays or disruptions in the Company's supply chain or adversely affect its manufacturing facilities and personnel. The Company currently has inventory on hand to meet its forecasted demand for the next 180-240 days, but the Company must be able to continue to have access to the Company's supply chain to meet demand beyond that period. The COVID-19 outbreak continues to be fluid and uncertain, making it difficult to forecast the final impact it could have on the Company's future operations. The Company cannot presently predict the scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, but if the Company or any of the third parties with whom the Company engages were to experience shutdowns or other business disruptions, the Company's ability to conduct its business in the manner and on the timelines presently planned could be materially and negatively impacted, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, revenues, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

The price of the Company’s common stock may fluctuate substantially due to several factors, some of which are discussed below. Further, the Company has a relatively limited number of shares of common stock outstanding, a large portion of which is held by a small number of investors, which could result in the increase in volatility of its stock price.

There has been volatility in the price of the Company’s common stock since December 1, 2019, decreasing from $37.00 per share to $18.97 per share as of the closing of September 30, 2020. The Company believes this is due in part to significant turnover of the Company’s North America sales team, the COVID-19 pandemic, and other factors. As a result of the Company’s relatively limited public float, its common stock may be less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership. Among other things, trading of a relatively small volume of the Company’s common stock may have a greater impact on the trading price for the Company’s shares than would be the case if the Company’s public float were larger. The public market price of the Company’s common stock has in the past fluctuated substantially and, due to the current concentration of stockholders, may continue to do so in the future. The market price for the Company’s common stock could also be affected by a number of other factors, including the general market conditions unrelated to the Company’s operating performance, including market volatility as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Covenants in the Loan and Security Agreement governing our revolving credit facility may restrict our operations, and if we do not effectivelymanage our business to comply with these covenants, our financial condition could be adversely impacted

The Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank in July 2020, which provides for a four-year secured revolving loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million. The term loan and revolving credit facility contains various restrictive covenants, including, among other things, minimum liquidity and revenue requirements, restrictions on our ability to dispose of assets, make acquisitions or investments, incur debt or liens, make distributions to our stockholders, or enter into certain types of related party transactions. These restrictions may restrict our current and future operations, particularly our ability to respond to certain changes in our business or industry, or take future actions. Pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, we granted the parties thereto a security interest in substantially all of our assets. See Note 13 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements and the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources Loan and Security Agreement” in Part II, Item 7 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company's ability to meet these restrictive covenants can be impacted by events beyond the Company's control and we may be unable to do so. The Company's Loan and Security Agreement provide that our breach or failure to satisfy certain covenants constitutes an event of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Company's lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under its debt agreements to be immediately due and payable. In addition, our lenders would have the right to proceed against the assets we provided as collateral pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement. If the debt under our Loan and Security Agreement was to be accelerated, we may not have sufficient cash on hand or be able to sell sufficient collateral to repay it, which would have an immediate adverse effect on our business and operating results.
