All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain information and note disclosures have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, or for any other future interim period or fiscal year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on August 17, 2021. Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of a novel strain of coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, or SARS-CoV-2, which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) and has resulted in a worldwide pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the effects of and response to the pandemic are rapidly evolving and new information is regularly coming to light. The Company's customers are diverting resources to treat COVID-19 patients and deferring non-urgent and elective procedures, both of which may impact our customers' ability to meet their other financial obligations, including to the Company. Some customers, which include hospitals, major academic medical centers, and other related entities, have incurred significant losses during the COVID-19 pandemic due to reduced patient volume. Furthermore, global economic uncertainty, including supply chain disruption and labor shortages, related to the COVID-19 pandemic may result in an incremental adverse impact on revenue, net income and cash flow and may require significant additional expenditures or cost-cutting to mitigate such impacts. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain. The Company’s financial results have also been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in various ways. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely impacting the pace at which the Company’s backlog converts to revenue. This is primarily the result of delays in the timing of deliveries and installations in fiscal 2020 and 2021 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company expects that such delays in deliveries and installations may continue through the end of fiscal 2022, which could have a negative impact on revenue. The Company has experienced disruptions in its sales cycle as well as delays in customer payments and service agreements. The Company also received requests from a few customers to extend payment terms or temporarily suspend service and corresponding payment obligations. While the Company has only received a small number of requests thus far, there can be no guarantee that more customers will not ask for the same in the future. In addition, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the global supply chain, disruptions in parts of our supply chain have resulted in delays in the receipt of certain components for our products as well as increased pricing pressure for such parts. As a result, the Company is carefully monitoring the pandemic and the potential length and depth of the resulting economic impact on our financial condition and results of operations. There remain uncertainties around the spread, severity and potential resurgence of COVID-19, the impact of new COVID-19 variants, vaccination deployment efforts, and how long the pandemic and associated health measures will last, the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, although the impacts are expected to continue and may significantly affect the Company’s business. The Company continues to critically review its liquidity and anticipated capital requirements in light of the significant uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance, available debt facilities, current business plan and revenue prospects, the Company believes that it will have sufficient cash resources and anticipated cash flows to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months. However, the Company is unable to predict with certainty the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its ability to maintain compliance with the debt covenants contained in the credit agreement related to its New Credit Facility (as such terms are defined in Note 10 below), including financial covenants regarding the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio and consolidated senior net leverage ratio. The Company was in compliance with such covenants at September 30, 2021. Failure to meet the covenant requirements in the future could cause the Company to be in default and the maturity of the related debt could be accelerated and become immediately payable. This may require the Company to obtain waivers or amendments to the credit agreement in order to maintain compliance and there can be no certainty that any such waiver or amendment will be available, or what the cost of such waiver or amendment, if obtained, would be. If the Company is unable to obtain necessary waivers or amendment and the debt under such credit facility is accelerated, the Company would be required to obtain replacement financing at prevailing market rates, which may not be favorable to the Company. There is no guarantee that the Company would be able to satisfy its obligations if any of its indebtedness is accelerated. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements. The Company assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in context with the information reasonably available to the Company and the unknown future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Key estimates and assumptions made by the Company relate to revenue recognition and the assessment of stand-alone selling price (“SSP”), assessment of recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, valuation of our equity method investment in the JV, valuation of inventories, share based compensation expense, annual performance related bonuses, valuation of the debt component of convertible senior notes, income taxes, allowance for credit losses and loss contingencies. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies Other than the policy adoption discussed below under Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted, there have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the significant accounting policies described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, or for any other future interim period or fiscal year.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of a novel strain of coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, or SARS-CoV-2, which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) and has resulted in a worldwide pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the effects of and response to the pandemic are rapidly evolving and new information is regularly coming to light.

The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely impacting the pace at which the Company’s backlog converts to revenue.

Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

Other than the policy adoption discussed below under Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted, there have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the significant accounting policies described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.
