2018 PIPE Warrants

The 2018 Common Stock Warrants (the “2018 PIPE Warrants”) have a five-year life and are exercisable by cash or cashless exercise. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were 693,335 and 2,841,116 2018 PIPE Warrant exercises, respectively, for total cash proceeds of $1.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2021, 8,538,569 2018 PIPE Warrants remained outstanding.

SafeOp Surgical Merger Warrants

In conjunction with the Company’s 2018 acquisition of SafeOp, the Company issued warrants to purchase 2,200,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share, which have a five-year life and are exercisable by cash or cashless exercise. There were no exercises during the three months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 there were 969,932 SafeOp Surgical Merger Warrant exercises for total cash proceeds of $0.1 million.

As of June 30, 2021, 1,194,943 SafeOp Surgical Merger Warrants remained outstanding.  

Squadron Medical Warrants

As further described in Note 6, during the year ended December 31, 2018, in connection with the initial debt financing with Squadron Medical and a participant lender, the Company issued warrants to purchase 845,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.15 per share. An additional 4,838,710 warrants were issued at an exercise price of $2.17 per share during the second quarter of 2019, in conjunction with the Company’s draw on the expanded credit facility. In May 2020, an additional 1,075,820 warrants were issued at an exercise price of $4.88 per share in conjunction with the Company’s second amendment to the Squadron Medical debt for total warrants outstanding to Squadron Medical and the participant lender of 6,759,530. In conjunction with the second amendment, the expiration dates for all existing warrants were extended to May 29, 2027 in order to align all outstanding warrant expiration dates. In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, the warrants qualified for equity treatment upon issuance and were recorded as a debt discount to the face of the debt liability based on fair value to be amortized into interest expense over the life of the debt agreement. The fair value assigned to the warrant amendment was also allocated as a debt issuance cost and amortized into interest expense. As the warrants provide for partial price protection that allow for a reduction in the price in the event of a lower per share priced issuance, the warrants were valued utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation that considers the probabilities of future financings. The Monte Carlo model simulates the present value of the potential outcomes of future stock prices of the Company over the seven-year life of the warrants. The projection of stock prices is based on the risk-free rate of return and the volatility of the stock price of the Company and correlates future equity raises based on the probabilities provided. No Squadron Medical Warrants have been exercised as of June 30, 2021.

Executive Warrants

In December 2017 the Company issued warrants to Mr. Patrick S. Miles, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to purchase 1,327,434 shares of the Company’s common stock for $5.00 per share (the “Executive Warrants”). The warrants have a five-year term and are exercisable by cash or cashless exercise. The warrants issued to Mr. Miles were accounted for as share based compensation, and the fair value of the warrants of approximately $1.4 million were recognized in full in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 as the warrants were immediately vested upon issuance. No Executive Warrants have been exercised as of June 30, 2021.
