Organization and Basis of Presentation

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Unless indicated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Sonendo,” or the “Company” refer to Sonendo, Inc.

Description of Business

Sonendo, Inc. was incorporated in June 2006 pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware under the name Dentatek Corporation. In March 2011, the Company changed its name to Sonendo, Inc. The Company is a medical technology company that has developed and is commercializing the GentleWave System to treat tooth decay. The Company’s principal market is the United States. The Company’s products include the GentleWave System, which is cleared by the United States (“U.S.”) Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) for sale in the U.S. and approved by Health Canada in Canada, along with the system’s sterilized, single-use procedure instruments (“PIs”).

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, including the accounts of Sonendo and its wholly-owned subsidiary, PIPStek, LLC, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions among the consolidated entities have been eliminated in consolidation.

As discussed in Note 3, “Discontinued Operations”, on March 1, 2024, the Company divested its software segment by selling substantially all assets and liabilities of its wholly owned subsidiary, then-known as TDO Software, Inc. The sale met the criteria to be accounted for as a discontinued operation as required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-20. Accordingly, the financial results of the Software business are reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for all periods presented. The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows include the financial results of the Software business for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. All amounts and disclosure included in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements reflect only the Company’s continuing operations unless otherwise noted.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the 1-for-200 reverse split of the Company’s common stock that was approved by our Board of Directors and made effective on October 18, 2024. All share and per share information herein that relates to our common stock prior to the effective date has been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

Certain line items on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and the consolidated statements of cash flows are reclassified in the prior period to conform to current period presentation.

Reverse Stock Split

On October 16, 2024, the Company filed an amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to implement a 1-for-200 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, effective as of October 18, 2024. The reverse stock split was announced by FINRA on its OTC Daily List on November 7, 2024 and took effect at the open of trading on November 8, 2024 on the OTCQX. The reverse stock split correspondingly adjusted the per share exercise price of all outstanding options and all shares underlying any of the Company’s outstanding warrants by reducing the conversion ratio for each outstanding warrant and increasing the applicable exercise price or conversion price in accordance with the terms of each outstanding warrant and based on the reverse stock split ratio. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. The number of shares of common stock authorized under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is unchanged at 500,000,000 shares. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the 1-for-200 reverse split of the Company’s common stock. All share and per share information data herein that relates to common stock prior to the effective date has been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $11.6 million and $15.1 million in principal outstanding under its loan facility.

The Company has a limited operating history, and the revenue and income potential of the Company’s business and market are unproven. The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and as of December 31, 2024 had an accumulated deficit of $458.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred net losses of $33.5 million and used $24.7 million of cash, cash equivalents in operations, and recognized a gain of $5.7 million from sale of discontinued operations. The Company will continue to incur significant costs and expenses related to its ongoing operations until it gains market acceptance of products and achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Companys ability to continue as a going concern depends on its ability to continue to commercialize its products, achieve and maintain profitable operations, as well as the adherence to conditions of the outstanding term loan as amended in March 2024 (see Note 10). Without additional financing, the Company will have insufficient liquidity to achieve further commercialization of our products and maintain compliance with our loan covenants. Due to these conditions, there is substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company has active plans to mitigate any doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Specifically, the Company has been taking steps and plans to further reduce negative cash flow through additional operating expense reductions. The Company is also actively exploring financing options. Its plans are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties and there can be no assurance that its plans can be effectively implemented and, therefore, that the conditions can be effectively mitigated.

The Company will require additional financing in order to fund its future expected negative cash flows. Due to its failure to comply with the continued listing standards set forth in the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual, our common stock was suspended from trading on the NYSE effective at the opening of business Eastern Standard Time on November 22, 2023. The Company commenced trading on the OTCQX on the same day. In April 2024, the Company withdrew its request to appeal and the NYSE and our common stock has been delisted from the NYSE, which may negatively impact the Company’s stockholders and the trading price and liquidity of its common stock. Over-the-counter markets are more limited than the NYSE, and it is likely that there will be significantly less liquidity in the trading of the Company’s common stock. The delisting of the Company’s common stock from the NYSE could have material adverse effects on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

On June 4, 2024, the Company received notice from OTC that the Company’s common stock no longer met the Standards for Continued Qualification for the OTCQX per the OTCQX Rules for U.S. Companies section 2.1(A) because the Company’s stock bid price closed below $0.10 for more than 30 consecutive calendar days. We subsequently regained compliance for a period of time through the reverse stock split discussed in the following paragraphs.

On June 10, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued shares of common stock, at a specific ratio, ranging from 1:10 to 1:200, at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors at any time prior to the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, with the exact ratio to be determined by the Company’s board of directors without further approval or authorization of the Company’s stockholders. In September 2024, the Board approved a 1-for-200 reverse stock split.

On October 16, 2024, the Company filed an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to implement a 1-for-200 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, effective as of October 18, 2024. The reverse stock split correspondingly adjusted the per share exercise price of all outstanding options and all shares underlying any of the outstanding warrants by reducing the conversion ratio for each outstanding warrant and increasing the applicable exercise price or conversion price in accordance with the terms of each outstanding warrant and based on the reverse stock split ratio. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who are entitled to fractional shares will receive a cash payment in lieu of receiving

fractional shares (after taking into account and aggregating all shares of the Company’s common stock then held by such stockholder) equal to the fractional share interest multiplied by $5.00 (the per share closing price of the Company’s common stock, on a post-split basis, as last reported on the OTCQX market on November 7, 2024). The reverse stock split was announced by FINRA on its OTC Daily List on November 7, 2024 and took effect at the open of trading on November 8, 2024 on the OTCQX. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, the Company became compliant with OTCQX Rule 2.1(A) for a period of time.

The number of shares of common stock authorized under the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is unchanged at 500,000,000 shares. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the 1-for-200 reverse split of our common stock. All share and per share information data herein that relates to the Company's common stock prior to the effective date has been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

On November 7, 2024, the Company received notice from the OTC that the Company’s common stock no longer met the Standards for Continued Qualification for the OTCQX per the OTCQX Rules for U.S. Companies section 2.1(B) because the Company’s market capitalization has stayed below $5 million for the past 30 consecutive calendar days. After the 90 day grace period to regain compliance expired on February 10, 2025, our common stock was removed from OTCQX and moved to the OTC Pink market.

Operating Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, who is the Company’s chief executive officer (“CEO”), for the purpose of allocating resources and evaluating performance. For the year ended December 31, 2023 and for the period in 2024 until the divestiture of the Software business on March 1, 2024, the Company had business activity and operated two operating and reportable segments: Product and Software. Since March 1, 2024, the Company has been operating under its single reportable segment, Product. There were no substantial assets or operations remaining of the previous software segment. The previous Software segment is reported as discontinued operations and presented as such for all periods in this report.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to avail itself of this exemption and, therefore, for new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies, the Company will be subject to an extended transition period until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.
