Background and Organization

On July 23, 2015, ViewRay, Inc. (f/k/a Mirax Corp.), or the Company, and ViewRay Technologies, Inc. (f/k/a ViewRay Incorporated), consummated an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, or Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the stockholders of ViewRay Technologies, Inc. contributed all of their equity interests to the Company for shares of the Company’s common stock and merged with the Company’s subsidiary, which resulted in ViewRay Technologies, Inc. becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, or the Merger. Refer to Note 3 for further information on the Merger.

ViewRay, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary ViewRay Technologies, Inc., designs, manufactures and markets the MRIdian system, an MRI-guided radiation therapy system to image and treat cancer patients simultaneously.

Since inception, ViewRay Technologies, Inc. has devoted substantially all of its efforts towards research and development, initial selling and marketing activities, raising capital and the manufacturing and shipment of MRIdian systems. In May 2012, ViewRay Technologies, Inc. was granted clearance from the FDA, to sell MRIdian with Cobalt-60. In November 2013, ViewRay Technologies, Inc. received its first clinical acceptance of a MRIdian with Cobalt-60 at a customer site, and the first patient was treated with that system in January 2014. ViewRay Technologies, Inc. has had the right to affix the CE mark to MRIdian with Cobalt-60 in the European Economic Area since November 2014. In September 2016, the Company received the right to affix the CE mark to MRIdian Linac in the EEA, and in February 2017, the Company received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to market the MRIdian Linac system.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the Company continuing as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from public and private shares offerings and available borrowings under its Term Loan agreement.  These have historically been sufficient to meet working capital needs, capital expenditures, and debt service obligations. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss from operations of $72.2 million and used cash from operations of $70.1 million. The Company believes that its existing cash balance of $57.4 million as of December 31, 2017, and the aggregate $59.1 million of proceeds from the February equity financing (see Note 20), are sufficient to provide liquidity to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months.
