Axogen, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
(In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
1.Basis of Presentation
General
Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in these Notes to “Axogen,” the “Company," “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Axogen, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Axogen Corporation (“AC”), Axogen Processing Corporation, and Axogen Europe GmbH.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, and therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year due primarily to the impact of the continued uncertainty of general economic conditions that may impact our markets for the remainder of fiscal year 2022. Specifically, there can be no assurances that resurgences of COVID-19 will not affect future results.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reporting results of operations.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The changes below were made to the Company's significant accounting policies previously disclosed in Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on February 25, 2022, for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentration
The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition as cash equivalents in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances; however, as of March 31, 2022, $14,059 of the cash and cash equivalents balance was in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company had restricted cash balances of $6,251 and $6,251, respectively. The March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 balances both include $6,000 and $250, which represent collateral for two irrevocable standby letters of credit. See "Note 8 - Long-Term Debt, Net of Debt Discount and Financing Fees."

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

(In thousands) | March 31, 2022 |  | December 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 14,559 |  |  | $ | 32,756 |
Restricted cash | 6,251 |  |  | 6,251 |
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows | $ | 20,810 |  |  | $ | 39,007 |

St ock-Based Compensation
The Company measures stock options granted to employees and directors at a premium price based on market conditions, such as the trading price of the Company’s common stock, using a Monte Carlo Simulation in estimating the fair value at grant date. The determination of the fair value is affected by the Company's stock price, as well as assumptions regarding several subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards. The Company determines the expected life of each award giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules, and post-vesting forfeitures. The Company uses the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The expense has been reduced for forfeitures as they occur.
The Company recognizes expense for all stock-based compensation awards, including stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and performance stock units ("PSUs") granted to employees eligible for retirement, as defined within the award notice and allowing for continued vesting post-retirement, over the retirement notice period and continuously updates its estimate of expense over the notice period each reporting period if a retirement notice has not been provided.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management has reviewed and considered all recent accounting pronouncements and believe there are none that could potentially have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or disclosures.

Inventory includes unprocessed tissue, work-in-process, Avance® Nerve Graft, Axoguard Nerve Connector®, Axoguard Nerve Protector®, Axoguard Nerve Cap®, and Axotouch® Two-Point Discriminator finished goods and supplies.

6. Fair Value Measurement
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Cash equivalents, investments and derivative instruments are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy defines a three-level valuation hierarchy for classification and disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices 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 assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
There has been no movement between Level 1 and Level 2 or between Level 2 and Level 3 from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Debt Derivative Liabilities are measured using a ‘with and without’ valuation model to compare the fair value of the Company's financing agreement with Oberland Capital including the identified embedded derivative features and the fair value of a plain vanilla note with the same terms. The fair value of the Oberland Facility including the embedded derivative features was determined using a probability-weighted expected return model based on four potential settlement scenarios for the Oberland Facility due to (a) a 5% probability of a mandatory prepayment event of the Oberland Facility on December 31, 2023; (b) a 15% probability of a mandatory prepayment event of the Oberland Facility on March 31, 2026; (c) a 5% probability of the prepayment of the Oberland Facility at the Company’s option on December 31, 2025; and (d) a 75% probability that the Oberland Facility will be held to its scheduled maturity dates in accordance with the terms of the debt agreement. The estimated settlement value of each scenario, which would include any required make-whole payment, is then discounted to present value using a discount rate that is derived based on the initial terms of the Oberland Facility at issuance and corroborated utilizing a synthetic credit rating analysis.

7. Leases
The Company leases administrative, manufacturing, research and distribution facilities through operating leases. Several of leases include fixed payments including rent and non-lease components such as common-area or other maintenance costs.
On January 27, 2022, AC entered into a Commercial Lease Amendment ("Amendment") with JA-Cole L.P., with an effective date of February 1, 2022, pursuant to the original Commercial Lease dated April 21, 2015, as amended (the "Lease"). The lease is for the office and warehouse facility located in Burleson, Texas. The Amendment revised the commencement date to May 1, 2022 and the expiration date to April 30, 2027. The Company accounted for the Lease revisions as a lease modification in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 842, Leases, as the modification effectively terminated the existing lease and created a new lease which commenced on February 1, 2022. The Lease and related modification entries are included in the operating lease line items on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Total operating lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $1,408 and $1,225 respectively.

Oberland Facility
June 30, 2020, the Company entered into a seven-year financing agreement with Oberland Capital (the "Oberland Facility") and obtained the first tranche of $35,000 at closing. On June 30, 2021, the second tranche of $15,000 was drawn down by the Company.
The Oberland Facility requires quarterly interest payments for seven years. Interest is calculated as 7.5% plus the greater of LIBOR or 2.0% (9.5% as of March 31, 2022). Each tranche of the Oberland Facility has a term of seven years from the date of issuance (with the first tranche issued on June 30, 2020, maturing on June 30, 2027 and the second tranche issued on June 30, 2021, maturing on June 30, 2028). In connection with the Oberland Facility, the Company entered into a revenue participation agreement with Oberland Capital, which provides that, among other things, a quarterly royalty payment as a percentage of the Company’s net revenues, up to $70 million in any given fiscal year, subject to certain limitations set forth therein, during the period commencing on the later of (i) April 1, 2021 and (ii) the date of funding of a tranche of the loan, and ending on the date upon which all amounts owed under the Oberland Facility have been paid in full (the “Revenue Participation Agreement”). Payments under the Revenue Participant Agreement commenced on September 30, 2021. The royalty structure of the Revenue Participant Agreement re s ults in approximately 1.0% per year of additional interest payments on the outstanding loan amount. The Company recorded $335 as interest expense for this Revenue Participation Agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company pays the quarterly debt interest on the last day of the quarter and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 paid $1,187 and $831, respectively, to Oberland Capital. The Company capitalized interest of $1,445 and $520 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, towards the costs to construct and retrofit the APC Facility in Vandalia, OH. See "Note 12- Commitments and Contingencies." To date, the Company has capitalized interest of $6,719 related to this project. The capitalized interest is recorded as part of property and equipment, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. See "Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies."
Embedded Derivatives
The Debt Derivative Liabilities are recorded at fair value, with the change in fair value reported in the condensed consolidated statements of operations at each reporting date. The fair values of the Debt Derivative Liabilities were $5,310 and $5,562 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. See "Note 6 - Fair Value Measurement."
Unamortized Debt Discount and Financing Fees
The unamortized debt discount consists of the remaining unamortized initial fair values of the embedded derivatives related to the first and second tranches of the Oberland Facility. The debt discount is amortized over the respective life of the related tranche and recorded in interest expense using the effective yield method.
The financing fees for the Oberland Facility were $642 and were recorded as a contra liability to the debt facility. The financing fees are amortized over the life of the first tranche of the Oberland Facility and recorded in interest expense.
Amortization of debt discount and deferred financing fees for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $219 and $112, respectively.
14

Other credit facilities
The Company maintains restricted cash of $6,251 and $6,251 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 balances both include $6,000 and $250, which represent collateral for two irrevocable standby letters of credit.
9. Stock-Based Incentive Plan s
The Company maintains two share-based incentive plans: the Axogen, Inc. Amended and Restated 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan, (“2019 Plan”), and the Axogen 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2017 ESPP”). As of March 31, 2022, 749,538 shares of common stock were available for issuance under the 2019 Plan.The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense, which consisted of compensation expense related to stock options, PSUs and RSUs based on the value of share-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest during the period and stock-based compensation expense of $2,678 and $2,694 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
A summary of the stock option activity is as follows:

| Options |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)

A summary of the restricted and performance stock unit activity is as follows:

| Outstanding Stock Units
| Stock Units |  | Weighted-Average Fair Value at Date of Grant per Share |  | Weighted Average Remaining Vesting Life |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Unvested, December 31, 2021 | 1,730,765 |  |  | $ | 18.45 |  |  | 1.51 |  | $ | 19,633 |

Performance Stock Units
At March 31, 2022, the total future stock compensation expense related to non-vested performance awards at maximum target payout is expected to be approximately $6,623. As of March 31, 2022, there was approximately$23,818 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to both the PSU and RSU unvested awards. The Company expects to recognize these costs over a weighted-average period of 3.17 years.
On March 16, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved PSUs that were tied to 2022, 2023 and 2024 revenue (the “2022 PSU award.”) The 2022 PSU award consists of a targeted award of 526,467 shares with a payout ranging from 0% to 150% upon achievement of specific revenue goals.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan

A total of 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2017 ESPP, and as of March 31, 2022, 223,678 shares remain available for issuance.
10. Net Loss Per Common Share
The following reflects the net loss attributable to common shareholders and share data used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations using the two class method:

16

(1) These common equivalent shares are not included in the diluted per share calculations as they would be anti-dilutive, if the Company was in a net income position.
11. Income Taxes
The Company has not recorded current income tax expense due to the generation of net operating losses. Deferred income taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet approach, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. A full valuation allowance has been established on the deferred tax asset as it is more likely than not that a future tax benefit will not be realized. In addition, future utilization of the available net operating loss carryforward may be limited under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 as a result of changes in ownership.
The Company identifies and evaluates uncertain tax positions, if any, and recognizes the impact of uncertain tax positions for which there is a less than more likely than not probability of the position being upheld when reviewed by the relevant taxing authority. Such positions are deemed to be unrecognized tax benefits and a corresponding liability is established on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has not recognized a liability for uncertain tax positions. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. The Company’s remaining open tax years subject to examination by federal tax authorities include the years ended December 31, 2019 through 2021.
12. Commitments and Contingencies
Service Agreements
On August 6, 2015, the Company entered into a License and Service Agreement ("CTS Agreement") with Community Blood Center, (d/b/a Community Tissue Service) ("CTS") which has been extended through December 31, 2023 . In accordance with the CTS Agreement, the Company pays CTS a facility fee for use of clean room/manufacturing, storage and office space, which the Company accounts for as an embedded lease in accordance with ASC 842, “Leases.” The Company also pays CTS for service in support of its manufacturing process such as for routine sterilization of daily supplies, providing disposable supplies, microbial services and office support. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid fees to CTS of approximately $622 and $643, respectively, and are included in cost of goods sold on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In December 2011, the Company entered into a Master Services Agreement for Clinical Research and Related Services. The Company was required to pay $151 upon execution of this agreement and the remainder monthly based on activities associated with the execution of Axogen’s phase 3 pivotal clinical trial to support the BLA for Avance Nerve Graft. Payments made under this agreement were $327 and $278 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Concentrations
Vendor
Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is currently derived from five products, Avance Nerve Graft, Avive Soft Tissue Membrane (currently, market availability is suspended), Axoguard Nerve Protector, Axoguard Nerve Connector, and Axoguard Nerve Cap for the treatment of peripheral nerve damage. Of these five products, Avance Nerve Graft represents approximately half of the Company’s total revenue. The Company has an exclusive distribution agreement with Cook Biotech for the purchase of Axoguard which expires June 30, 2027. The agreement with Cook Biotech establishes a formula for the transfer cost of the Axoguard products and requires certain minimum purchases by the Company, although, through mutual agreement, the parties have not established such minimums and to date have not enforced such provision.
The agreement allows for termination provisions for both parties. The loss of the ability to sell the Axoguard products could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business until other replacement products would be available.
Axogen Processing Center Facility
The Company is highly dependent on the continued availability of its processing facilities at the Community Blood Center facility (“CTS”) in Dayton, Ohio and could be harmed if the physical infrastructure of this facility is unavailable for any prolonged period of time.
17

On July 31, 2018, the Company purchased the APC Facility in Vandalia, Ohio, located near the CTS processing facility where Avance Nerve Graft is currently processed. The APC Facility, when and if operational, will be the new processing facility for Avance Nerve Graft to provide continued capacity for growth and to support the transition of Avance Nerve Graft to a biologic product. The APC Facility is comprised of a 107,000 square foot building on approximately 8.6 acres of land. The Company paid $731 for the land, which is recorded as land in property and equipment on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company paid $4,300 for the building which is recorded in projects in process in property and equipment on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
On July 9, 2019, the Company entered into a Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder with CRB Builders, L.L.C., (“CRB”), in which CRB will renovate and retrofit the APC Facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and inception-to-date the Company has recorded $2,589 and $38,005, respectively, of expenditures related to renovations and design and build in projects in progress. In addition to these project costs, the Company has capitalized interest of $1,426 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $6,719 inception-to-date to the project. These items are recorded as projects in process in property and equipment, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Fair Value of the Debt Derivative Liabilities
The fair value of the Debt Derivative Liabilities was determined using a probability-weighted expected return model based upon four potential settlement scenarios for the Oberland Facility discounted to present value, and compared to fair value of a plain vanilla note. The Company estimated the make-whole payments required under the Oberland Facility to generate an internal rate of return equal to 11.5% through the scheduled maturity dates, less the total of all quarterly interest and royalty payments previously paid to Oberland Capi tal. The calculation utilized the XIRR function in Microsoft Excel as required by the Oberland Facility. If the debt is not prepaid but instead is held to its scheduled maturities, the Company’s estimate of the make-whole payment for the first tranche and second tranches due on June 30, 2027 and June 30 2029, respectively, is approximately zero. The Company has consistently applied this approach since the inception of the debt agreement on June 30, 2020.
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company became aware that Oberland Capital may have an alternative interpretation of the calculation of the make-whole payments that the Company believes does not properly utilize the same methodology utilized by the XIRR function in Microsoft Excel as described in the Oberland Facility. The Company estimates the top end of the range of the make-whole payments if the debt is held to scheduled maturity under an alternative interpretation to be approximately $13,000 for the first tranche of the Oberland Facility on June 30, 2027 and approximately $5,000 for the second tranche of the Oberland Facility on June 30, 2028. Further, if the debt is prepaid prior to the scheduled maturity dates and subject to the alternative interpretation, the make-whole payment would be larger than the amounts herein. There has been no updates since reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is and may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and proceedings in the ordinary course of the Company's business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any legal proceeding or other loss contingency involving the Company. In the opinion of management, such claims are either adequately covered by insurance or otherwise indemnified, or are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material, adverse effect on the Comp any's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows in a particular period could be materially affected by these contingencies.
On January 9, 2019, Plaintiff Neil Einhorn, on behalf of himself and others similarly situated, filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida alleging violations of the federal securities laws against Axogen, Inc., certain of its directors and officers (“Individual Defendants”), and Axogen’s 2017 Offering Underwriters and 2018 Offering Underwriters (collectively, with the Individual Defendants, the “Defendants”), captioned Einhorn v. Axogen, Inc., et al., No. 8:19-cv-00069 (M.D. Fla.). Plaintiff asserts that Defendants made false or misleading statements in connection with the Company’s November 2017 registration statement issued regarding its secondary public offering in November 2017 and May 2018 registration statement issued regarding its secondary public offering in May 2018, and during a class period of August 7, 2017 to December 18, 2018. In particular, Plaintiff asserts that Defendants issued false and misleading statements and failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the Company aggressively increased prices to mask lower sales; (2) that the Company’s pricing alienated customers and threatened the Company’s future growth; (3) that ambulatory surgery centers form a significant part of the market for the Company’s products; (4) that such centers were especially sensitive to price increases; (5) that the Company was dependent on a small number of surgeons whom the Company paid to generate sales; (6) that the Company’s consignment model for inventory was reasonably likely to lead to channel stuffing; (7) that the Company offered purchase incentives to sales representatives to encourage channel stuffing; (8) that the Company’s sales representatives
18

were encouraged to backdate revenue to artificially inflate metrics; (9) that the Company lacked adequate internal controls to prevent such channel stuffing and backdating of revenue; (10) that the Company’s key operating metrics, such as the number of active accounts, were overstated; and (11) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. Axogen was served on January 15, 2019. On February 4, 2019, the Court granted the parties’ stipulated motion which provided that Axogen is not required to file a response to the complaint until thirty days after Plaintiff files a consolidated amended complaint. On June 19, 2019, Plaintiff filed an Amended Class Action Complaint, and on July 22, 2019, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss. Plaintiff filed opposing papers on August 12, 2019. The Court held a status hearing on September 11, 2019 and stayed all deadlines regarding the parties’ obligations to file a case management report. On December 4, 2019, the parties presented oral arguments. On April 21, 2020, the Court dismissed the complaint without prejudice, finding the Plaintiff failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. The Plaintiff filed a Second Amended Class Action Complaint on June 22, 2020. Axogen filed a motion to dismiss on August 6, 2020. The Plaintiff filed an opposition on September 20, 2020. The Court held oral argument on February 25, 2021. On March 19, 2021, the Court dismissed the Second Amended Complaint with prejudice, finding again that the Plaintiff failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. On April 14, 2021, Plaintiff filed a notice of appeal. Plaintiff filed its opening brief on June 28, 2021. The Company filed its appellee brief on August 11, 2021. The Plaintiff filed a reply brief on September 14, 2021. The Eleventh Circuit heard oral argument for March 8, 2022. The amount of loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. This matter is subject to various uncertainties and it is possible that it may be resolved unfavorably to the Company. However, while it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of the matter, the Company and the Individual Defendants dispute the allegations and intend to vigorously defend themselves.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report and our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this report to “Axogen,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Axogen, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries Axogen Corporation (“AC”), Axogen Processing Corporation, and Axogen Europe GmbH.
OVERVIEW
We are the leading company focused specifically on the science, development and commercialization of technologies for peripheral nerve regeneration and repair. We are passionate about helping to restore peripheral nerve function and quality of life to patients with physical damage or transection to peripheral nerves providing innovative, clinically proven and economically effective repair solutions for surgeons and health care providers. Peripheral nerves provide the pathways for both motor and sensory signals throughout the body. Every day people suffer traumatic injuries or undergo surgical procedures that impact the function of their peripheral nerves. Physical damage to a peripheral nerve, or the inability to properly reconnect peripheral nerves, can result in the loss of muscle or organ function, the loss of sensory feeling or the initiation of pain.
Our platform for peripheral nerve repair features a comprehensive portfolio of products, including Avance Nerve Graft, a biologically active off-the-shelf processed human nerve allograft for bridging severed peripheral nerves without the comorbidities associated with a second surgical site; Axoguard Nerve Connector, a porcine (pig) submucosa ECM coaptation aid for tensionless repair of severed peripheral nerves; Axoguard Nerve Protector, a porcine submucosa extracellular matrix ("ECM") product used to wrap and protect damaged peripheral nerves and reinforce the nerve reconstruction while preventing soft tissue attachments; Axoguard Nerve Cap, a porcine submucosa ECM product used to protect a peripheral nerve end and separate the nerve from the surrounding environment to reduce the development of symptomatic or painful neuroma; Avive Soft Tissue Membrane, a processed human umbilical cord intended for surgical use as a resorbable soft tissue conduit; and Axotouch Two-Point Discriminator, used to measure the innervation density of any surface area of the skin. Our portfolio of products is available in the U.S., Canada, Germany, the UK, Spain, South Korea, and several other countries.
As previously announced, we suspended the market availability of Avive Soft Tissue Membrane ("Avive") effective June 1, 2021, and we continue discussions with the FDA to determine the appropriate regulatory classification and requirements for Avive. The suspension was not based on any safety or product issues or concerns with Avive. We seek to return Avive to the market, although we are unable to estimate the timeframe or provide any assurances that a return to the market will be achievable. Avive has historically represented approximately 5% of our revenues through the second quarter of 2021 and no Avive revenue was recorded in the first quarter of 2022..
Revenue from the distribution of our nerve repair products, Avance Nerve Graft, Axoguard Nerve Connector, Axoguard Nerve Protector, and Axoguard Nerve Cap in the United States is the main contributor to our total reported sales and has been the key component of our growth to date.
We have experienced that surgeons initially are cautious adopters for nerve repair products. Surgeons typically start with a few cases and then wait and review the results of these initial cases. Active accounts are usually past this wait period and have developed some level of product reorder. These active accounts have typically gone through the Value Analysis Committee approval process, have at least one surgeon who has converted a portion of his or her treatment algorithms of peripheral nerve repair to our portfolio and have ordered our products at least six times in the last twelve months. As of March 31, 2022, we had 926 active accounts, an increase of 1% from 915 one year ago. Active accounts are approximately 85% of our revenue. The top 10% of these active accounts continue to represent approximately 35% of our revenue. As our business continues to grow, we have transitioned to reporting a new account metric that we believe demonstrates the strength of adoption and potential revenue growth in accounts that have developed a more consistent use of our products in their nerve repair algorithm. We refer to these as core accounts which we define as accounts that have purchased at least $100,000 in the past twelve months. As of March 31, 2021, we had 288 core accounts, an increase of 4% from 277 one year ago. These core accounts represented approximately 60% of our revenue in the quarter, which has remained consistent over the past two years.

Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $31,007 were relatively unchanged as compared to $31,037 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Revenues were negatively impacted by lower procedure volumes due to the impact of COVID-19 variants particularly earlier in the quarter and to related hospital staffing challenges. Specifically, revenue growth was impacted by a decrease in unit volume of approximately 4%, offset by the net change in prices and product mix of approximately 4%. Excluding the impact of Avive revenue in the prior year of $1,747, revenue would have increased approximately 6%.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $404 or 2% to $25,461 as compared to $25,865 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Gross margin decreased to 82.1% from 83.3% due primarily to increased production costs in the quarter.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased 15% to $36,781 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $32,085 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in total operating expenses was a result of an increase in net compensation of $1,450, due primarily to increased head count, marketing programs of $1,087 as a result of the return of in-person sales team and physician education events and programs, travel cost of $815, as well as increased professional services of $857.
21

Sales and marketing expenses increased 16% to $20,888 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $17,973 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to the following: (i) marketing development programs of $1,087; (ii) compensation related expenses of $992; and (iii) travel related expenses of $638, as hospital access restrictions improved.
Research and development expenses increased 9% to $6,275 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $5,748 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to compensation related project expenses of $347. Product development costs include spending in a number of specific programs including the non-clinical expenses related to the BLA for Avance Nerve Graft and a next generation Avance product. Product development expenses represented approximately 66% of total research and development expense in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Clinical trial expenses represented approximately 34% of total research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
General and administrative expenses increased 15% to $9,618 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $8,364 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher professional services in the quarter, including legal and consulting services of $605 and occupancy-related costs of $330.
Other Expense and Income
Interest expense decreased to $354,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to $444 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. We recognized total interest charges of $1,742 and $944 in connection with the Oberland Facility in the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively, however, $1,445 and $520 of this interest was capitalized to the construction costs of the APC Facility in first quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Income Taxes
We had no income tax expense or benefit for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 due to the incurrence of net operating losses in each of these periods, the benefits of which have been fully reserved. We do not believe that there are any additional tax expenses or benefits currently available.
Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing financial statements, we follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us to make certain estimates and apply judgments that affect its financial position and results of operations. Management regularly reviews our accounting policies and financial information disclosures. A summary of significant accounting policies that require the use of estimates and judgments in preparing the financial statements was provided in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. During the quarter covered by this report, there were no material changes to the accounting policies and assumptions previously disclosed, except as disclosed in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flow Information
As of March 31, 2022, our principal sources of liquidity were our cash and cash equivalents and investments totaling $73,669. Our cash equivalents are comprised of a money market mutual fund and our investments are comprised of short-term commercial paper and U.S. Treasuries. Our cash and cash equivalents and investments decreased $16,668 from $90,337 at December 31, 2021, primarily as a result of operating activities and renovating the APC Facility.
We had working capital of $89,530 and a current ratio of 4.9x at March 31, 2022, compared to working capital of $102,756 and a current ratio of 5.2x at December 31, 2021. The decrease in the current ratio at March 31, 2022, as compared to December 31, 2021, was primarily due to a decrease in cash used to renovate the APC Facility, which is a non-current asset and used in operations. We believe we have sufficient cash resources to meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months based on our expected level of operations.
As of March 31, 2022, total current liabilities were $22,945. Based on current estimates, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and investments, as well as cash provided by sales of our products will allow us to fund our operations through at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements depend on a number of factors including, without limitation, our growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the expansion of sales and
22

marketing activities, the acquisition and/or development of new products and the cost of products. We could face increasing capital needs. Such capital needs could be substantial depending on the extent to which we are unable to increase revenue.
If we need additional capital in the future, we may raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or from other sources. The sale of additional equity would result in dilution to our shareholders. There is no assurance that we will be able to secure funding on terms acceptable to us, or at all. The increasing need for capital could also make it more difficult to obtain funding through either equity or debt. Should additional capital not become available to us as needed, we may be required to take certain actions, such as slowing sales and marketing expansion, delaying regulatory approvals, or reducing headcount.
Cash Flow Information
The following table presents a summary of cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:

|  | Three Months Ended March 31,
(In thousands) |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Net cash (used in) provided by: |  |  |  |
Operating activities |  | $ | (11,051) |  |  | $ | (10,820) |
Investing activities |  | (7,241) |  |  | 870 |
Financing activities |  | 95 |  |  | 517 |
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash |  | $ | (18,197) |  |  | $ | (9,433) |

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $11,051 and $10,820 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively. The slightly unfavorable change in net cash used in operating activities of $231 or 2.1% is due to the following: (i) the net favorable change of $4,835 in operating liabilities and assets and the increase in the net loss of $4,815 .
Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $7,241 cash as compared to net cash provided by investments of $870 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $8,111 in net cash used in investing. The increase in net cash used in investing activities is principally due to the net sales of investments of $5,745 during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as part of our asset management program, the purchase of property and equipment of $1,942 and the acquisition of intangible assets of $424.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $95 and $517 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, a decrease of $424 or 272%. The unfavorable change in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Operating Cash Requirements
APC Facility Commitment
July 9, 2019, we entered into the Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder with CRB (the "Design Build Agreement"). The estimated cost pursuant to the Design-Build Agreement is $29,300. Additional costs associated with the renovation, purchasing of furniture and equipment, validation and certification of the APC Facility are estimated to be $20,900, plus projected capitalized interest of $11,300. We have recorded $46,013 to date related to this project, including capitalized interest of $6,719. We anticipate spending $15,290, including projected capitalized interest of $4,581, of which $1,700 is anticipated in 2023. Construction of the facility is now substantially complete. We anticipate completion of validation and certification of the facility by early 2023, followed by commencement of tissue processing in the facility.
23

Credit Facilities
On June 30, 2020, we entered into the Oberland Facility and obtained the first tranche of $35,000 at closing. On June 30, 2021, the second tranche of $15,000 was drawn down by the Company. The financing costs for this facility were $642 and were recorded as a contra liability to the debt facility.
The Oberland Facility requires quarterly interest payments for seven years. Interest is calculated as 7.5% plus the greater of LIBOR or 2.0% (9.5% as of March 31, 2022). Each tranche of the Oberland Facility has a term of seven years from the date of issuance (with the first tranche issued on June 30, 2020, maturing on June 30, 2027 and the second tranche issued on June 30, 2021, maturing on June 30, 2028). In connection with the Oberland Facility, we entered into a revenue participation agreement with Oberland Capital, which provides that, among other things, a quarterly royalty payment as a percentage of our net revenues, up to $70 million in any given year, subject to certain limitations set forth therein, during the period commencing on the later of (i) April 1, 2021 and (ii) the date of funding of a tranche of the loan, and ending on the date upon which all amounts owed under the Oberland Facility have been paid in full (the “Revenue Participation Agreement”). Royalty payments commenced on September 30, 2021. This royalty structure results in approximately 1.0% per year of additional interest payments on the outstanding loan amount. Upon maturity or upon such earlier repayment of the Oberland Facility, we will repay the principal balance and provide a make-whole payment calculated to generate an internal rate of return to Oberland Capital equal to 11.5%, less the total of all quarterly interest and royalty payments previously paid to Oberland Capital.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
For a discussion of our market risks, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to any of these risks since December 31, 2021.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit 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 our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and Board of Directors, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives, and we necessarily are required to apply our judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022 and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

PART II –OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As disclosed in "Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are engaged in certain legal proceedings, and the disclosure set forth in Note 12 relating to legal proceedings is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as set forth below. Any investment in our business involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the information we include in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, including our financial statements and related notes contained therein, and the additional information in the other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks may result in material harm to our business and our financial condition and results of operations. In this event, the market price of our common stock may decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. Additional risks that we currently believe are immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our business, financial conditions and future prospects and the trading price of our common stock could be harmed as a result of any of these risks.
Our operations and business, financial condition, and prospects may be adversely affected by the current
military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and other future social and geopolitical instability.
We are exposed to the risk of changes in social, geopolitical, legal, and economic conditions. The global economy has been, and may continue to be, negatively impacted by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. As a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other G7 countries, among other countries, have imposed substantial financial and economic sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in Russia. Broad restrictions on exports to Russia have also been imposed. These measures include: (i) comprehensive financial sanctions against major Russian banks; (ii) additional designations of Russian individuals with significant business interests and government connections; (iii) designations of individuals and entities involved in Russian military activities; and (iv) enhanced export controls and trade sanctions limiting Russia's ability to import various goods. The negative impacts arising from the conflict and these sanctions and export restrictions may include reduced consumer demand, supply chain disruptions and increased costs for transportation, energy, and raw materials. Although none of our operations are in Russia or Ukraine, further escalation of geopolitical tensions could have a broader impact that expands into other markets where we do business, which may adversely affect our business and financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
