We incurred net losses of $3,211,000 and $10,877,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and $7,883,000 and $17,208,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  We have an accumulated deficit of $285,605,000 as of June 30, 2013.  Additionally, we have used net cash of $17,014,000 and $15,958,000 to fund our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. To date, these operating losses have been funded primarily from outside sources of invested capital and gross profits. During 2012 and 2013, we expanded our commercialization activities while simultaneously pursuing available financing sources to support operations and growth.

We have had, and we will likely continue to have, an ongoing need to raise additional cash from outside sources to fund our future operations.  Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30th, 2013, we entered into a Sale and Exclusive License/Supply Agreement with Bimini Technologies LLC (“Bimini”), pursuant to which we sold to Bimini substantially all of the assets (other than certain retained rights and licenses) of our Puregraft® product line, a series of standalone fat transplantation products that were developed to improve the predictability of outcomes for autologous fat grafting and aesthetic body contouring. The aggregate value of the consideration paid by Bimini at the execution of the agreement was $5.0 million.

We believe we have sufficient cash to fund operations through November 30, 2013, which includes minimum liquidity requirements of the Loan and Security Agreement, which requires us to maintain at least three months of cash on hand.  We restructured our debt in June 2013, which resulted in additional proceeds along with extended terms of the loan and deferral of principal payments for twelve months.  At November 30, 2013, absent additional funding, our cash balance may be less than the minimum liquidity amount required by the lenders in the Loan and Security Agreement.  In order to fund operations and our continued commercialization efforts through the next twelve months, we are pursuing additional funding through either strategic corporate partnerships or future issuances of equity or debt securities in addition to our gross profits. We have an established history of raising capital through all these platforms, and are currently involved in negotiations with multiple parties.  In the absence of sufficient positive cash flows from operations, no assurance can be given that we can generate sufficient revenue to cover operating costs or that additional financing will be available to us and, if available, on terms acceptable to us in the future.

Without this additional capital, cash generated from sales and containment of costs will not provide adequate funding indefinitely at their current levels.  If we cannot raise sufficient capital, we would need to reduce our research, development, and administrative operations, including reductions of our employee base and the deferral of ongoing development projects, to focus almost entirely on the supply of current products to existing distribution channels and our thermal burn contract arrangement with BARDA.  As a result, such reductions would negatively affect our ability to achieve certain other corporate goals.
