Medwave, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes To Financial Statements
January 31, 1997
1. Organization and Description of Business
Medwave, Inc. (the Company) is a development stage enterprise engaged
exclusively in the development of, and intends to market, manufacture and
sell, a proprietary, non-invasive system that continually monitors arterial
blood pressure of adults.
2. Basis of Presentation
The financial information presented as of January 31, 1997 has been
prepared from the Company's books and records without audit. Financial
information as of April 30, 1996 is based on audited financial statements
of the Company but does not include all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for
a fair presentation of the financial information for the periods indicated
have been included. For further information regarding the Company's
accounting policies, refer to the financial statements and related notes
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended April 30, 1996.
The results of operations for the nine months ended January 31, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3. Public Offering
In November 1995, the Company received the proceeds from an initial public
offering of 1,610,000 shares of Common Stock at $5.00 per share before
underwriting discount and offering expenses.
The Company's shareholders, as a condition of the initial public offering,
approved a plan of recapitalization whereby all convertible preferred stock
automatically converted into an aggregate of 2,750,164 shares of Common
Stock. As part of the plan of recapitalization, the Company's articles of
incorporation were amended to, among other things, increase the authorized
capital stock of the Company to 50,000,000 shares without par value.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified
by, the Company's financial statements set forth in Item 1 of this Form 10-QSB.
Plan of Operation
The Company, which was formed in 1984, is a development stage company that
currently employs sixteen full-time employees and one part-time employee. Since
its inception, the Company has been engaged exclusively in the development of a
non-invasive, continual blood pressure measurement and monitoring system. The
Company's initial concept for measuring blood pressure was based upon parameters
obtained from a doppler signal. By 1991, it was evident that this approach would
not yield the desired results, so those efforts were abandoned. However, the
Company used information gained from these initial efforts to direct its
technical efforts to different approaches, which eventually resulted in the
approach the Company now uses in its Vasotrac(R) system. This innovative system,
the Vasotrac(R) system, includes as one of its key components a unique pressure
sensor that is placed on the wrist over a main artery. Utilizing the Company's
proprietary technology, the Vasotrac(R) system monitors blood pressure
continually, providing new readings about every fifteen heartbeats. The
continual, efficacious and non-invasive qualities of the Vasotrac(R) system make
it a new approach to blood pressure monitoring.
The Company is not presently generating any significant revenue from operations
and has incurred an accumulated deficit of $6,793,115 from its inception through
January 31, 1997. Significant additional losses from, among other things,
development, testing, regulatory compliance, and sales expenses are expected to
be incurred by the Company at least until it emerges from the development stage.
Until November 1995, the Company financed its activities through a series of
private placements of equity securities, including shares of Preferred Stock
that were converted into Common Stock just prior to the Company's initial public
offering (IPO) in November, 1995.
The Company's success is dependent upon the successful development and marketing
of the Vasotrac(R) system. However, there can be no assurance that the
Vasotrac(R) system can ever by successfully marketed or sold in sufficient
quantities and at margins necessary to achieve or maintain profitability. The
Company is currently marketing the Vasotrac(R) with a controlled rollout. As
part of the controlled market rollout, the Company is now focusing on hospitals
in the Midwest. The Company is currently focusing its sales efforts on the
operating/surgery room. In addition, the Company is focusing on the Emergency
and Trauma Centers because of the need for these centers to be able to record
low blood pressure. The Vasotrac(R) continues to receive positive interest from
the medical community. The sale of the Vasotrac(R) to a hospital must coincide
with the hospital's budget cycle. Therefore, the Company has found that even
though the hospital's medical staff is interested in the Vasotrac(R), the actual
purchase of the Vasotrac(R) is delayed until the hospital's capital equipment
budget allows for the purchase of the system.
The Company hired two additional sales representatives at the end of January
1997 to bring the sales force up to four individuals. In addition, the Company
hired a Clinical Coordinator in January to help coordinate the clinical testing.
If the Company emerges from the development stage, its success will also depend
on its ability to hire additional employees for key operating positions,
including sales and marketing positions. Competition for such employees is
intense and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
hiring such employees on acceptable terms or when required, or in maintaining
the services of its present employees.
<PAGE>
The Company estimates that within the next twelve months, it may require
approximately 12 additional persons, including one in the area of general and
administrative, seven in sales and marketing, one in research and development,
and three in manufacturing. The Company preliminarily estimates that these
employees will increase employee-related expenses in excess of $860,000 during
the next twelve months. However, such requirements are subject to change and are
highly dependent on the development process for the system, including the
manufacturing scale-up process, market acceptance, and the Company's
distribution methods.
Proceeds from the IPO are being used primarily to continue clinical testing of
the Vasotrac(R) system, to begin manufacturing and marketing, to conduct any
additional research and product development efforts that may be necessary, and
to provide working capital. Over the next twelve months, the Company expects to
spend in excess of $960,000 for research and development, including amounts
expected to be spent on clinical trials. The funds are expected to be used to
develop sensors and holders, to repackage the monitor for cost reduction, and to
sustain engineering support for manufacturing. No significant amount of
equipment is expected to be required. Even assuming no sales by the Company, the
Company believes that the net proceeds of the IPO offering will allow the
Company to meet its cash requirements for approximately 1-1/2 - 2 years from the
end of the third quarter (January 31, 1997). If the development process for the
system does not proceed as expected because significant product design changes
are required to achieve market acceptance or unexpected difficulties are
encountered in attaining cost-effective manufacturability, the Company may
require additional capital at an earlier date. Such capital may be sought
through bank borrowing, equipment financing, additional equity financing, and
other methods. The Company's financing needs are subject to change depending on,
among other things, market conditions and opportunities, equipment or other
asset-based financing that may be available, and cash flow from operations. Any
material favorable or unfavorable deviation from its anticipated expense could
significantly affect the timing and amount of additional financing that may be
required. However, additional financing may not be available when needed or, if
available, may not be on terms that are favorable to the Company or its security
holders. In addition, any such financing could result in substantial dilution to
then existing security holders.
Results of Operations
The results of operations compares the three months and nine months ended
January 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The analysis of liquidity and capital
resources compares January 31, 1997 to April 30, 1996.
The Company had sales of $20,481 and $0 for the quarter ended January 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively. Sales for the nine months ended January 31, 1997 and
1996 were $25,476 and $0, respectively. The Company delivered its first unit in
September and did not ship additional units until December because the Company
re-designed the software to make the user interface more intuitive.
The Company incurred $242,902 and $136,502 for cost of sales, product
development, and research and development expenses for the quarter ended January
31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Cost of sales, product development and research
and development costs for the nine months ended January 31, 1997 and 1996 were
$666,714 and $198,276, respectively. The cost of sales, product development and
research and development expense increase was primarily attributed to the hiring
of additional employees as the Company produces the Vasotrac(R) system. Also, in
August through October 1995, the Company had consulting revenues of $111,000
from an unrelated outside project relating to services performed on a single
doppler flowmeter project. This consulting revenue was netted against cost of
sales, product development, and research and development costs.
The consulting project was performed pursuant to a single purchase order and was
substantially completed by December 1995.
The Company incurred $136,669 and $24,990 for sales and marketing expenses for
the quarter ended January 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Sales and marketing
expenses for the nine months ended January 31, 1997 and 1996 were $336,228 and
$25,928, respectively. The sales and marketing expenses increase was
attributable to the hiring of a Vice President of Sales and additional sales
representatives.
<PAGE>
The Company incurred $139,129 and 99,060 for general and administrative expenses
for the quarter ended January 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. General and
administrative expenses for the nine month period ended January 31, 1997 and
1996 were $358,390 and $278,468, respectively. The increase in general and
administrative expenses was primarily attributed to increased insurance expenses
associated with increased activities of its operations and the hiring of a Chief
Financial Officer.
Interest income was $76,818 and $67,254 for the quarter ended January 31, 1997
and January 31, 1996, respectively. Interest income for the nine months ended
January 31, 1997 and 1996 was $249,458 and $73,974, respectively. The interest
income increase reflects higher cash, cash equivalents, and short and long-term
investments resulting from the Company's IPO.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's cash, cash equivalents, short and long-term investments were
$5,577,032 and $6,528,321 at January 31, 1997 and April 30, 1996, respectively.
The Company incurred cash expenditures of $345,911 for operations for the
quarter ended January 31, 1997 and $1,172,140 for the nine months ended January
31, 1997.
In November 1995, the Company completed its initial public offering of 1,610,000
shares of Common Stock raising approximately $6,900,000 in net proceeds to the
Company. Prior to the initial public offering, the Company financed its
activities through a series of private placements of equity securities. The
Company's Common Stock is quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbol
"MDWV".
With the proceeds of the initial public offering, the Company believes that
sufficient liquidity is available to satisfy its working capital needs for
approximately 1-1/2 - 2 years from the end of the third quarter (January 31,
1997). The Company has no significant capital expenditure commitments.
