DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Neuronetics, Inc., or the Company, is a commercial stage medical technology company focused on designing, developing and marketing products that improve the quality of life for patients who suffer from psychiatric disorders. The Company’s first commercial product, the NeuroStar Advanced Therapy System, is a non-invasive and non-systemic office-based treatment that uses transcranial magnetic stimulation, or TMS, to create a pulsed, MRI-strength magnetic field that induces electrical currents designed to stimulate specific areas of the brain associated with mood. The system was cleared in 2008 by the United States Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, to treat adult patients with major depressive disorder, or MDD, who have failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode. The Company intends to continue to pursue development of its NeuroStar Advanced Therapy System for additional indications.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $96.1 million and an accumulated deficit of $228.6 million. The Company incurred negative cash flows from operating activities of $20.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 and $9.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company has incurred operating losses since its inception, and management anticipates that its operating losses will continue in the near term as the Company seeks to expand its sales and marketing initiatives to support its growth into existing and new markets and invest in additional research and development activities. The Company’s primary sources of capital to date have been proceeds from its IPO, private placements of its convertible preferred securities, borrowings under its credit facilities and revenues from sales of its products. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had $30.0 million of borrowings outstanding under its credit facility, which matures in March 2022. Management believes that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2019 and anticipated revenues from sales of its products are sufficient to fund the Company’s operations for at least the next 24 months after March 31, 2019.
