Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Going concern

Going concern

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, which presumes that the Company’s liquidation is not imminent; however, based on the Company’s current financial position and liquidity sources, including current cash balances, and forecasted future cash flows, the Company is at risk of violating certain of its financial covenants under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated December 6, 2019 (as amended on October 29, 2021, July 11, 2022 and March 31, 2023).

If mitigating steps are not taken or are not successful, the Company is at substantial risk of failing its covenants in 2024. A breach of a financial covenant under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement could accelerate repayment of our obligations under the agreement. Refer to Note 4. Financial instruments for further discussion concerning the Company’s long-term debt obligations.

The Company is actively pursuing plans to mitigate these conditions and events, such as considering various additional cost cutting measures, and exploring additional divestiture opportunities such as the recently completed divestiture of certain assets within the Company’s Wound Business (as defined in Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures); however, there can be no assurances that it is probable these plans will be successfully implemented or that they will successfully mitigate these conditions and events. Therefore, these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As part of efforts to improve its financial condition, on February 27, 2023, the Company reached an agreement to return the assets and liabilities of CartiHeal (2009) Ltd. (“CartiHeal”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to its former securityholders. The deconsolidation of CartiHeal relieved deferred consideration liabilities and milestone obligations related to the acquisition of CartiHeal. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures for further information regarding the acquisition and subsequent deconsolidation of CartiHeal. In addition, the Company announced a restructuring plan in December 2022 to align the Company’s organizational and management cost structure to improve profitability and cash flow. Refer to Note 9. Restructuring costs for further information.
