Note 2 – Basis of presentation

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, they do not include all information and footnote disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company filed audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, which included all information and notes necessary for such complete presentation in conjunction with its 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

The results of operations for the interim period ended March 31, 20212022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, which are contained in the Company’s 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For further discussion refer to Note 2–”Basis2 – “Basis Of Presentation And Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations–Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

Note 3 - Liquidity, Going Concern and Management’s Plans

LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

The Company incurred net losses of approximately $1,408,000$3,892,000 and $2,416,000$1,408,000 for the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively. The Company has historically incurred losses from operations and expects to continue to generate negative cash flows as it implements its plan around the Biosciences Division. The consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as applicable to a going concern.

COVID-19 has adversely affected the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on the economy in the U.S. and the rest of the world is expected to continue to be significant. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will continue to impact the economy is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the extent to which its financial condition and results of operations will be affected.

The Company has updated its business model to decrease corporate overhead and marketing activities to significantly reduce expenses. The Company believes that as COVID-19 begins to dissipate due to vaccinations being administered nationwide, patients will again feel comfortable traveling to one of the LHI clinics for its treatment. The Company’s Biologics Vertical has commenced preclinical work in support of filing an Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The Company is anticipating an initial submission during the second half of 2021.

Note Purchase Agreements

On April 17, 2020, and in subsequent April closings, the Company entered into a Secured Convertible Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “April SPA”) with thirty three investors (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company received an aggregate of $2,842,695 in gross proceeds through the sale to the Purchasers of Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (the “April Secured Notes”) and warrants (the “April Warrants”) to purchase shares of common stock of the Company (the “April Offering”). The proceeds of the April Offering will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The April Offering resulted in the issuance of April Secured Notes to Purchasers in an aggregate principal amount of $3,842,695. This sum included the issuance by the Company to FWHC Bridge, LLC (the “Investor) of an April Secured Note in the amount of $1,000,000 to amend and supersede the A&R Note (see below “Short-term Notes, Related Parties”) previously issued by the Company to the Investor on April 9, 2020. The Investor is an affiliate of FWHC Holdings, LLC, a pre-existing shareholder of the Company, which served as lead investor in the Company’s recent Series D Convertible Preferred Stock Offering. Additionally, in connection with the April Offering, the Company entered into an amendment with the Investor with respect to the outstanding 12% Senior Secured Convertible Note due September 30, 2020, which was originally issued in 2018 and assumed in the Merger and purchased by the Investor from its original holder, George Hawes, on March 27, 2020 (the “Hawes Note”). The Hawes Notes had a principal amount of $424,615 as of March 31, 2020. The amendment to the Hawes Note eliminated the requirement that the Company make monthly payments of accrued interest.

As part of the April Offering, the holders of certain existing warrants issued by the Company, which contained anti-dilution price protection, entered into agreements terminating all anti-dilution price protection in their warrants. The Company implemented a one-time reduction of the exercise price of such warrants to be equal to the price per share of preferred stock totaling $0.014 per share for the Qualified Financing. The Qualified Financing closed on September 11, 2020 triggering the reset of certain existing warrants to $0.014 per share and the conversion of the April Secured Notes plus accrued interest into 287,984,337 Preferred A shares. The Company also converted the Hawes notes plus accrued interest into 35,860,079 shares of Preferred A shares upon the closing of the Qualified Financing (for further discussion, see Note 9-”Equity Transactions” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K).

Short-term Notes, Related Parties

On March 27, 2020, the Company issued a demand note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $500,000 to FWHC Bridge, LLC (the “Investor”) in exchange for a loan made by the Investor in such amount to cover the Company’s working capital needs. Subsequently, on April 9, 2020, in exchange for an additional loan of $500,000 made by the Investor to the Company, to further cover the Company’s working capital needs, the Company amended and restated the demand note to reflect a new principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “A&R Note”). The A&R Note bore simple interest at a rate of 12% per annum. The Investor is an affiliate of FWHC Holdings, LLC which is a pre-exiting shareholder of the Company. As discussed further above in “Note Purchase Agreements”, this A&R Note was further amended and superseded by an April Secured Note in the amount of $1,000,000 issued by the Company to the Investor. As explained above, the A&R Note was converted to Series A Preferred stock on September 11, 2020, the closing date of the Qualified Financing.

The short-term notes with related parties were issued by the Company during 2019, and as of March 31, 2020 consisted of four loans totaling $1,635,000, made to the Company by Horne Management, LLC, controlled by the former Chief Executive Officer, William E. Horne, for working capital purposes. The loans bore interest rates ranging from 5.5% to 12%, in some cases increasing to 15% if not paid by the respective maturity date ranging from March 26, 2020 to May 13, 2020. Some of these loans provided for the issuance of warrants at 114% warrant coverage if the loan was not repaid within two months. None of these loans were repaid and 840,000 warrants were issued at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. On April 23, 2020, Horne Management, LLC agreed to convert the related notes plus accrued interest into (i) 4,368,278 shares of common stock of the Company and (ii) a ten-year warrant to purchase up to an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock with such conversion to be effective as of April 17, 2020. This warrant has an exercise price equal to the price per share at which securities were offered to investors for purchase at the Qualified Financing totaling $0.014 and is exercisable beginning on the day immediately following the earlier to occur of (x) the closing of the Qualified Financing and (y) November 1, 2020. The Qualified Financing closed on September 11, 2020 (for further discussion, see Note 9-”Equity Transactions” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K).

On April 1, 2021, the Company, entered into a Secured Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement”) with five (5) investors (the “Holders”). Pursuant to the terms of the April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, the Company sold promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,575,000. The Notes are due and payable on March 31, 2022 and bear interest at an annual rate of 8%. The Notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock at a discount of 20% to the price paid for such New Securities in the next financing that meets the definition of a Qualified Financing as defined in the April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement. The Notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company under a security agreement with the Holders. The lead investor of the April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, FWHC Bridge, LLC, advanced $1,500,000 of the total amount to the Company. FWHC is an affiliated entity of FWHC, LLC, which is a principal stockholder of the Company. An additional affiliate of FWHC, LLC advanced an additional $25,000 (see Note 14). Since the number of shares the holder will receive upon a Qualified Financing is not known until the financing occurs, a contingent beneficial conversion feature will be calculated and recorded when the financing is completed.

The Company had cash on hand of approximately $332,000 $341,000 as of March 31, 20212022 and approximately $2,133,000$92,000, as of May 13, 2021.April 29, 2022. The Company’s cash is insufficient to fund its operations over the next year and the Company is currently working to obtain additional debt or equity financing to help support the Biosciences Division’s business model.short-term working capital needs.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or that the terms and conditions of any future financings will be workable or acceptable to the Company or its shareholders. If the Company is unable to fund its operations from existing cash on hand, operating cash flows, additional borrowings, or raising equity capital, the Company may be forced to discontinue operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 13 – Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the difference turns around. The Company accounts for interest and penalties on income taxes as income tax expense. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. In determining the need for valuation allowances the Company considers projected future taxable income and the availability of tax planning strategies.

From inception to March 31, 2021, the Company has incurred net losses and, therefore, has no current income tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by these losses is fully offset by a valuation allowance as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Management of the Company evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the deferred tax assets.

The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. There are no uncertain tax positions at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company has not undergone any tax examinations since inception.

Note 149 - Subsequent Events

Pursuant to the terms of the April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, the Company sold promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,575,000. The Notes are due and payable on March 31, 2022 and bear interest at an annual rate of 8%. The Notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock at a discount of 20% to the price paid for such New Securities in the next financing that meets the definition of a Qualified Financing as defined in the April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement. The Notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company under a security agreement with the Holders. The lead investor of the April 2021 Note Purchase Agreement, FWHC Bridge, LLC, advanced $1,500,000 of the total amount to the Company.

Historical results and trends that might appear in this Quarterly Report should not be interpreted as being indicative of future operations.

Overview

H-CYTE, Inc (“the Company”) is a hybrid-biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing and delivering new treatments for patients with chronic respiratory and pulmonary disorders. During the last two years, the Company has evolved into two separate verticals under its Healthcare Medical Biosciences Divisiondivisions with its entrance into the biologics and device development space (“Biologics Vertical”Biotech Division”). This new verticaldivision is complementary to the Company’s current Lung Health Institute (LHI) autologous infusion therapy business (“Infusion Vertical”Division”) and is focused on underserved disease states. On September 8, 2021, the Company announced that its Lung Health Institute facilities changed their names to Centers for Respiratory Health as the clinics continue to deliver treatments for patients with chronic respiratory and pulmonary disorders.

The consolidated results for H-CYTE include the following wholly-owned subsidiaries: H-CYTE Management, LLC, (formerly Blue Zone Health Management, LLC), MedoveXMedovex Corp, Cognitive Health Institute, LLC, and Lung Institute Tampa, LLC (formerly Blue Zone Lung Tampa, LLC) and the results include Lung Institute Dallas, PLLC (“LI Dallas”), Lung Institute Nashville, PLLC (“LI Nashville”), Lung Institute Pittsburgh, PLLC (“LI Pittsburgh”), and Lung Institute Scottsdale, LLC (“LI Scottsdale”), as Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”). Additionally, H-CYTE Management, LLC is the operator and manager of the various Lung Health Institute (LHI) clinics: LI Dallas, LI Nashville, LI Pittsburgh, and LI Scottsdale.

On September 11, The LI Dallas and LI Pittsburgh clinics did not reopen in 2020 withafter the closingtemporary closure of the Rights Offering, FWHC, LLC, FWHC Bridge, LLC, and FWHC Bridge Friends, LLC (collectively known as “FWHC”) gained control of the Company by subsequently owning approximately 61% of the fully diluted shares of the Company (for further discussion, see Notes 8 and 9-”Equity Transactions”all LI clinics due to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K).

These two divisions: the Healthcare Medical Biosciences Division (which includes the “Infusion Vertical” and the “Biologics Vertical”) and the DenerveX medical device division (“DenerveX”). The Company has decided to focus its available resources on the Healthcare Medical Biosciences Division as it represents a significantly greater opportunity than the DenerveX division. Following this decision, on April 2, 2021, the Company entered into a series of agreements with Medovex, LLC to pursue a joint venture regarding the continued development and commercialization of the DenerveX Device for business outside the U.S. (see Note 14 to the Company’s financial statements included herein).

Healthcare Medical Biosciences Division (“Biosciences Division”)

Autologous Infusion Therapy (“Infusion Vertical”)

The Company’s Biosciences Division includes the Infusion Vertical that develops and implements innovative treatment options in autologous cellular therapy (PRP-PBMC) to treat chronic lung disorders. Committed to an individualized patient-centric approach, this division provides oversight and management of the highest quality to the LHI clinics while producing positive medical outcomes following the strictest CDC guidelines.

Biotech Development Division (“Biologics Vertical”)

On June 21, 2019, H-CYTE entered into an exclusive product supply agreement with Rion, LLC (“Rion”) to develop and distribute (post FDA approval) a biologic for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“COPD”), the fourth leading cause of death in the U.S. Rion has established a novel biologics technology to harness the healing power of the body. Rion’s innovative technology, based on science developed at Mayo Clinic, provides an off-the-shelf platform to enhance healing in soft tissue, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and neurological organ systems.

On October 9, 2019, the Company entered into a services agreement with Rion which provides the Company the benefit of Rion’s resources and expertise for the limited purpose of (i) consulting with and assisting H-CYTE in the further research and development for the generation of a new biologic and (ii) subsequently assisting H-CYTE in seeking and obtaining FDA Phase 1 IND clearance for this biologic as necessary. Rion also agrees to consult with H-CYTE in its arrangement for services from third parties unaffiliated with Rion to support research, development, regulatory approval, and commercialization of the biologic.

With these agreements, Rion will serve as the product supplier and contracted preclinical development arm of the biologic. H-CYTE will control the commercial development and the clinical trial investigation. After conducting the clinical efficacy trials of this biologic, H-CYTE intends to pursue submission of a Biologics License Application (“BLA”) for review by the FDA for treatment of COPD.

Impact of COVID-19

COVID-19 has adversely affected the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on businesses and the economy in the United States is expected to continue to be significant. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will continue to impact businesses and the economy is highly uncertain. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the extent to which its financial condition and results of operation will be affected.

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The spread of COVID-19 coronavirus has caused public health officials to recommend precautions to mitigate the spread of the virus, especially as to travel and congregating in large numbers. In addition, certain states and municipalities have enacted quarantining regulations which severely limit the ability of people to move and travel.

In addition, the Company madeis uncertain of the decision to stop any further efforts to source alternative manufacturing and distributor optionsfull effect the pandemic will have on it for the DenerveX product.longer term since the scope and duration of the pandemic is unknown, and evolving factors such as the level and timing of the distribution of efficacious vaccines across the world and the extent of any resurgences of the virus or emergence of new variants of the virus, such as the Delta variant and the Omicron variant, will impact the stability of economic recovery and growth. The Company has decidedmay experience long-term disruptions to focus its available resources onoperations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the Biosciences Division as this division presents a significantly greater opportunity.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

OurThe Company’s discussion and analysis of ourits financial condition and results of operations are based on ourits consolidated financial statements, which we have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On a continual basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below.

We base

The Company bases our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believeit believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Results of Operations - Three months Ended March 31, 20212022 and 20202021

Revenue, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

The Company recorded revenue of approximately $376,000$380,000 and $1,017,000,$376,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively. The decrease in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the prior year is attributable to the economic impact that COVID-19 has had on the Company due to its vulnerable patient base being unable or unwilling to travel due to the virus. The Company suspended operations of the Infusion Vertical due to COVID-19 effective March 23, 2020 and did not reopen until August 2020 with limited capacity.

The Company recorded cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 of approximately $199,000 and $377,000, respectively. The decrease in cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the prior year, is attributable to the economic impact that COVID-19 has had on the Company. The Company’s cost of sales is comprised of two main components: medical supplies and personnel costs for the Infusion Vertical. Medical supplies are predominantly variable costs based on the number of treatments provided; personnel expenses are also variable as these are hourly positions. The number of treatments provided, during normal operations, can be handled adequately with the Company’s current level of personnel. The Company possesses the opportunity to increase the number of treatments performed without increasing personnel costs as it can leverage the current personnel’s availability until the Company’s treatment volume reaches critical mass. However, upon an increase in treatment volume beyond that capacity, the Company will need to hire additional personnel.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, the Company generated a gross profit totalingtotalling approximately $178,000$293,000 and $640,000,$178,000, respectively.

The decrease, as compared to the prior year, is attributable to the economic impact that COVID-19 has had on the Company. The decrease is attributable to cost saving measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company made adjustments to its corporate structure by reducing expenses in marketing, sales, and operations due to decreased patient volume. The Company also closed the Dallas and Pittsburgh clinics permanently in 2020 and reduced the Tampa and Scottsdale clinics to part-time in 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

OurThe Company’s Chief Executive Officer (our “CEO”(“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (our “CFO”(“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2021.2022. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives, and the Company necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.

Based on such evaluation, ourthe Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2021,2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not as effective as desired because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed below, and as a result, the Company engagesengaged consultants, implemented a number of new entity and process level controls and installed a new accounting software system to help mitigate this material weakness.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2021,2022, we determined that internal control deficiencies relating to a lack of segregation of duties still exist. Management believes these deficiencies mainly relate to the Company employing a limited number of accounting and finance personnel. The aggregation of these deficiencies is considered to be a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

In light of the conclusion that our internal disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31, 2021,2022, we have applied additional procedures and processes as necessary to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting in regard to this quarterly report. Accordingly, the Company believes, based on its knowledge, that: (i) this quarterly report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report; and (ii) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this annualquarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended March 31, 2021,2022, the Company has adopted and began to implement a remediation plan which included implementing a new accounting software system that management believes will help remediate internal control deficiencies related to the Company’s financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).
