Our Company

Adagio Medical Holding, Inc. (formerly known as Aja Holdco, Inc.) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”, the “Successor”) is medical device company focused on developing and commercializing products for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. The Company’s unique, proprietary technology portfolio consists of Ultra-Low Temperature Cryoablation (“ULTC”) both alone and in combination with Pulsed Field Ablation (also known as Pulsed Field Cryoablation or “PFCA”), along with associated catheters and consoles. Legacy Adagio (as defined below) received CE Marking in Europe for its VT Cryoablation System in March 2024 and has commercially launched in the EU. The Company has not launched commercially in the U.S. but is working towards obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals to do so. The Company is headquartered in Laguna Hills, California.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited revenue and has experienced recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and anticipates that it will continue to do so for at least the next several years.

As of December 31, 2024, the Successor reported cash and cash equivalents of $20.6 million, and an accumulated deficit of $70.6 million. For the period from July 31, 2024 to December 31, 2024 (Successor), from January 1, 2024 to July 30, 2024 (Predecessor), and for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Predecessor), net loss was $(53.8) million, $(21.3) million, and $(36.6) million, respectively. The net cash used in operating activities was $13.5 million, $16.0 million, and $25.7 million, respectively.

Management does not believe the Company's current cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements. Management believes that this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management intends to mitigate the conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern entity by (i) negotiate other cash equity or debt financing in the short-term, (ii) continue to pursue the necessary regulatory approvals to launch commercially in the U.S. market, and (iii) execute cost-cutting measures to manage cash burn. However, there can be no assurances that the current plans will generate any liquidity to the Company or be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

If the Company is unable to maintain sufficient financial resources, its business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. The Company may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate its product discovery and development activities or future commercialization efforts. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
