Any failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements could result in fines, penalties and sanctions; product recalls; suspensions or discontinuations of, or limitations or restrictions on, our ability to design, manufacture, market, import, export or sell our products; and damage to our reputation.
We are subject to ongoing FDA-CVM or USDA-CVB obligations and continued regulatory oversight, which may result in significant additional expense. Additionally, our products may be subject to labeling and advertising and/or promotional materials requirements and could be subject to other restrictions. Failure to comply with these regulatory requirements or the occurrence of unanticipated problems with our products could result in significant penalties.
The manufacturing processes, labeling, packaging, storage, advertising, promotion and recordkeeping for our products may be subject to extensive and ongoing regulatory requirements. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, or with our third-party manufacturers or manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in, among other things:
| · | restrictions on the marketing or manufacturing of the product, withdrawal of the product from the market, or voluntary product recalls; |
| | |
| · | fines, warning letters or holds on promotional materials and claims; |
| | |
| · | product seizure or detention, or refusal to permit the import or export of products; and |
| | |
| · | injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties. |
We cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of government regulation that may arise from future legislation or administrative action in the United States or abroad. If we are slow or unable to adapt to changes in existing requirements or the adoption of new requirements or policies, or if we are not able to maintain regulatory compliance, we may not achieve or sustain profitability, which would adversely affect our business.
Legislative or regulatory reforms with respect to veterinary diagnostics, medical devices and test kits may make it more difficult and costly for us to obtain regulatory clearance or approval of any of our future products and to produce, market, and distribute our products after clearance or approval is obtained.
Legislative or regulatory reforms with respect to veterinary diagnostics, medical devices and test kits may make it more difficult and costly for us to obtain regulatory clearance or approval of any of our future products and to produce, market, and distribute our products after clearance or approval is obtained.
From time to time, legislation is drafted and introduced in the U.S. Congress that could significantly change the statutory provisions governing the testing, regulatory clearance or approval, manufacture, and marketing of regulated and/or licensed products. In addition, FDA-CVM and USDA-CVB regulations and guidance are often revised or reinterpreted by the FDA-CVM and USDA-CVB in ways that may significantly affect our business and our products. Similar changes in laws or regulations can occur in other countries. Any new regulations or revisions or reinterpretations of existing regulations in the United States may impose additional costs or lengthen review times of any of our existing or future product candidates. We cannot determine what effect changes in regulations, statutes, legal interpretation or policies, when and if promulgated, enacted or adopted may have on our business in the future. Such changes could, among other things, require:
| | changes to manufacturing methods; |
| | |
| changes to manufacturing methods; | recall, replacement or discontinuance of certain products; and |
| | |
| | additional record-keeping. |
Each of these would likely entail substantial time and cost and could materially harm our financial results. In addition, delays in receipt of or failure to receive regulatory clearances or approvals for any future products would harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Risks Related to Intellectual Property
Our ability to obtain intellectual property protection for our products is limited.
OurCertain of our diagnostic and therapeutic technologies are dependent on intellectual property developed by our strategic partners and licensed to us. We do not own the intellectual property rights that underlie these technology licenses. Our rights to use the technology we license are subject to the negotiation of, continuation of and compliance with the terms of our licenses, and compliance with the terms of our licenses. Further, we do not control the prosecution, maintenance, or filing of the patents and other intellectual property licensed to us, or the enforcement of these intellectual property rights against third parties. The patents and patent applications underlying our licenses were not written by us or our attorneys, and we do not have control over the drafting and prosecution of such rights. Our partners might not have given the same attention to the drafting and prosecution of patents and patent applications as we would have if we had been the owners of the intellectual property rights and had control over such drafting and prosecution. We cannot be certain that drafting and/or prosecution of the licensed patents and patent applications has been or will be conducted in compliance with applicable laws and regulations or will result in valid and enforceable patents and other intellectual property rights.
Some of our products may or may not be covered by a patent. Further if an application is filed, it is not certain that a patent will be granted or if granted whether it will be held to be valid. All of which may impact our market share and ability to prevent others (competitor third parties) from making, selling, or using our products.
We intend to rely upon a combination of patents, trade secret protection, confidentiality agreements, and license agreements to protect the intellectual property related to our existing and future products. We may not be successful in protecting our intellectual property rights, including our unpatented proprietary know-how and trade secrets, or in avoiding claims that we infringed on the intellectual property rights of others. In addition to relying on patent and trademark rights, we rely on unpatented proprietary know-how and trade secrets, and employ various methods, including confidentiality agreements with employees and consultants, customers and suppliers to protect our know-how and trade secrets. However,
these methods and our patents and trademarks may not afford complete protection and there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop the know-how and trade secrets or develop better production methods than us. Further, we may not be able to deter current and former employees, contractors and other parties from breaching confidentiality agreements and misappropriating proprietary information and it is possible that third parties may copy or otherwise obtain and use our information and proprietary technology without authorization or otherwise infringe on our intellectual property rights. In the future, we may also rely on litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights and contractual rights, and, if not successful, we may not be able to protect the value of our intellectual property. Any litigation could be protracted and costly and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations regardless of its outcome.
If we are unable to obtain trademark registrations for our products, our business could be adversely affected.
We have trademark registrations for our company name and composite marks comprised of our company name, logo and/or slogan in the U.S., Canada, European Union, the United Kingdom, and Mexico. We also have an allowed application for our name in the U.S. for an expanded listing of diagnostic testing equipment. We have secured registrations for our MYZOMEDICA platform MYZOMEDICA in the U.S., Canada, the European Union, and the United Kingdom. In addition, we have registrations for our “Voice of the Vet” mark in the U.S., Canada, European Union and the United Kingdom.
We have also secured registrations for our in-clinic biosensor testing platform product name, TRUFORMA, with several product names in the U.S., Canada, the European Union, and the United Kingdom.
We own four live federal trademark registrations, including one for the TRUFORMA testing platform product names, along with PROPULSE, VERSATRODE and VERSATRON and the tradename PULSEVET.
We acquired a portfolio of trademarks for ASSISI, ASSISI LOOP, CALMER CANINE, ASSISI DENTALOOP, and composite marks including a logo and/or slogan in the U.S. and various countries throughout the world. The assets acquired from Revo Squared include registrations for REVO SQUARED, a stylized fan shaped logo, and MICROVIEW in the U.S. Trademark applications have been filed in the U.S. for TRUVIEW, TRUPREP, TRUSOUND, SONOVIEW, SUPERVIEW and MICROPREP.
Third parties may have intellectual property rights, which may require us to obtain a license or other applicable rights to make, sell or use our products. If such rights are not granted or obtained, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain, or license from third parties, patents, trademarks, trade secrets and similar proprietary rights without infringing on the proprietary rights of third parties. Although we believe our intellectual property rights are sufficient to allow us to conduct our business without incurring liability to third parties, our products may infringe on the intellectual property rights of such persons. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that we will not be subject to claims asserting the infringement of the intellectual property rights of third parties seeking damages, the payment of royalties or licensing fees and/or injunctions against the sale of our products. Any such litigation could be protracted and costly and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our diagnostic and therapeutic technologies depend on certain technologies that are licensed to us. We do not control these technologies and any loss of our rights to them could prevent us from marketing our diagnostic product candidates.
Our diagnostic and therapeutic technologies are dependent on intellectual property developed by our strategic partners and licensed to us. We do not own the intellectual property rights that underlie these licenses. Our rights to use the technology we license are subject to the negotiation of, continuation of and compliance with the terms of our licenses. We do not control the prosecution, maintenance or filing of the patents and other intellectual property licensed to us, or the enforcement of these intellectual property rights against third parties. The patents and patent applications underlying our licenses were not written by us or our attorneys, and we do not have control over the drafting and prosecution of such rights. Our partners might not have given the same attention to the drafting and prosecution of patents and patent applications as we would have if we had been the owners of the intellectual property rights and had control over such drafting and prosecution. We cannot be certain that drafting and/or prosecution of the licensed patents and patent applications has been or will be conducted in compliance with applicable laws and regulations or will result in valid and enforceable patents and other intellectual property rights.
Our intellectual property agreements with third parties may be subject to disagreements over contract interpretation, which could narrow the scope of our rights to the relevant intellectual property or technology or increase our financial or other obligations to our licensors.
Certain provisions in our intellectual property agreements may be susceptible to multiple interpretations. The resolution of any contract interpretation disagreement that may arise could affect the scope of our rights to the relevant intellectual property or technology or affect financial or other obligations under the relevant agreement, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
In addition, while it is our policy to require our employees and contractors who may be involved in the conception or development of intellectual property to execute agreements assigning such intellectual property to us, we may be unsuccessful in executing such an agreement with each party who in fact conceives or develops intellectual property that we regard as our own. Our assignment agreements may not be self-executing or may be breached, and we may be forced to bring claims against third parties, or defend claims they may bring against us, to determine the ownership of what we regard as our intellectual property.
We may be subject to claims that our employees, consultants or independent contractors have wrongfully used or disclosed confidential information of third parties.
We have received confidential and proprietary information from third parties. In addition, we employ individuals who were previously employed at other pharmaceutical or animal health companies. We may be subject to claims that we or our employees, consultants or independent contractors have inadvertently or otherwise improperly used or disclosed confidential information of these third parties or our employees’ former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against any such claims. Even if we are successful in defending against any such claims, such litigation could result in substantial cost and be a distraction to our management and employees.
Risks Related to Our Common Shares
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our company, or if they issue adverse or misleading opinions regarding us or our stock, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
Although we have research coverage by securities and industry analysts, if coverage is not maintained, the market price for our stock may be adversely affected. Our stock price also may decline if any analyst who covers us issues an adverse or erroneous opinion regarding us, our business model, our intellectual property or our stock performance, or if our product development and commercialization activities and operating results fail to meet analysts’ expectations. If one or more analysts cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline and possibly adversely affect our ability to engage in future financings.
We expect that the price of our common shares will fluctuate substantially.
Risks Related to Our Common Shares
We expect that the price of our common shares will fluctuate substantially.
The market price of our common shares has been subject to significant fluctuations, and we expect that the market price of our common shares will remain volatile. At times, the price of our common shares has changed significantly unrelated to any change in our financial condition or results of operations that would explain such a change. Numerous factors, including many over which we have no control, may have a significant impact on the market price of our common shares. These risks include those described or referred to in this “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in this report as well as, among other things:
| Examples of these include: | any delays in, or suspension or failure of, any future studies; |
| 24
| |
| Table of Contents | delays in the commercialization of our existing or future products; |
| | |
| | manufacturing and supply issues related to our existing or future products; |
| | |
| ● | · | quarterly variations in our results of operations or those of our competitors; |
| | |
| ● | · | changes in our earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts or adverse publicity about us or our product candidates; |
| | |
| ● | · | announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant contracts, commercial relationships, acquisitions or capital commitments; |
| | |
| ● | · | announcements relating to future development or license agreements including termination of such agreements; |
| | |
| ● | · | adverse developments with respect to our intellectual property rights or those of our principal collaborators; |
| | |
| ● | · | commencement of litigation involving us or our competitors; |
| | |
| ● | · | any major changes in our board of directors or management; |
| | |
| ● | · | new legislation in the United States and abroad relating to our markets or our industry; |
| | |
| ● | · | announcements of regulatory approval or disapproval of any of our future products or of regulatory actions affecting us or our industry; |
| | |
| ● | · | product liability claims, other litigation or public concern about the safety of our existing or future products; |
| | |
| ● | · | market conditions in the animal health industry, or in the sectors in which we participate, in particular, including performance of our competitors; |
| | |
| ● | · | the impact of social media posts by third parties that may draw attention to our company and increase trading in our common shares by retail investors; and |
| | |
| ● | · | general economic conditions in the United States and abroad. |
In addition, the stock market, in general, or the market for stocks in our industry, in particular, may experience broad market fluctuations, which may adversely affect the market price or liquidity of our common shares. Any sudden decline in the market price of our common shares could trigger securities class-action lawsuits against us. If any of our shareholders were to bring such a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit and the time and attention of our management would be diverted from our business and operations. We also could be subject to damages claims if we are found to be at fault in connection with a decline in our stock price.
Our Articles of Amalgamation (as amended) authorize us to issue an unlimited number of common shares and preferred shares without shareholder approval and we may issue additional equity securities, or engage in other transactions that could dilute your ownership interest, which may adversely affect the market price of our common shares.
OurExcept for as required under the continued listing requirements of NYSE American, where our common shares are listed for trading, our Articles of Amalgamation (as amended) authorize our Board of Directors, subject to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), or ABCA to issue an unlimited number of common shares and preferred shares without shareholder approval. Our Board of Directors may determine from time to time to raise additional capital by issuing common shares, preferred shares or other equity securities. We are not restricted from issuing additional securities,
including securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common shares or preferred shares. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of any future offerings, or the prices at which such offerings may be affected. Additional equity offerings may dilute the holdings of our existing shareholders or reduce the market price of our common shares, or both. Holders of our common shares are not entitled to pre-emptive rights or other protections against dilution. New investors also may have rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to, and that adversely affect, the then current holders of our common shares. Additionally, if we raise additional capital by making offerings of debt or preference shares, upon our liquidation, holders of our debt securities and preferred shares, and lenders with respect to other borrowings, may receive distributions of our available assets before the holders of our common shares.
We have incurred significant costs as a result of operating as a U.S. and Canadian public company, and our management will continue to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
As a U.S. and Canadian publicly traded company, we have incurred significant legal, accounting and other expenses and will incur additional expenses related to U.S. compliance after we are no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined under the JOBS Act. In addition, new and changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as well as under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the JOBS Act, and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities have created uncertainty for U.S. and Canadian public companies and increased our costs and time that our board of directors and management must devote to complying with these rules and regulations. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and lead to a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities.
The Company’s attempt in December 2020 to obtain shareholder approval for a domestication to the State of Delaware was unsuccessful. As a result, the Company will have to continue to comply with legal requirements applicable to a publicly traded company in both Canada and the U.S., resulting in additional legal and financial compliance costs and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities.
As of December 31, 2021, we were no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. As a result, we are now subject to enhanced reporting and other requirements, including the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, more extensive disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and the loss of other related exemptions. We expect that our compliance expenses will increase significantly as a result of this change.
Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and share price.
As a Canadian public company, we are permitted to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting in a manner that meets the standards of U.S. public companies required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404. We were required to meet these standards in the course of preparing our financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and our management has reported on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for such year. Additionally, our independent registered public accounting firm is required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The rules governing the standards that must be met for our management to assess our internal control over financial reporting are complex and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation.
In connection with the implementation of the necessary procedures and practices related to internal control over financial reporting, we may identify deficiencies that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, we may encounter problems or delays in completing the implementation of any requested improvements and receiving a favorable attestation in connection with the attestation provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. We will be unable to issue securities in the public markets through the use of a shelf registration statement if we are not in compliance with Section 404. Furthermore, failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could have a material adverse effect on our business and share price and could limit our ability to report our financial results accurately and timely.
If we are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could affect our ability to issue securities in the public markets.
If we sell common shares in future financings, shareholders may experience immediate dilution and, as a result, our share price may decline.
We may from time-to-time issue additional common shares at a discount from the existing trading price of our common shares. As a result, our shareholders would experience immediate dilution upon the sale of any shares of our common shares at such discount. In addition, as opportunities present themselves, we may enter into financing or similar arrangements in the future, including the issuance of debt securities, preferred shares or common shares. If we issue common shares or securities convertible into common shares, our common shareholders would experience additional dilution and, as a result, our share price may decline.
Future sales of our common shares by our shareholders or the perception that these sales may occur could cause our stock price to decline.
As of March 1, 2022, we had 979,899,668 common shares outstanding. Substantially all of our outstanding common shares have been registered for resale or other disposition by the holders thereof or are otherwise freely tradable by the holders thereof.
Sales of a substantial number of our common shares by our shareholders or the perception that these sales may occur, could depress the market price of our common shares and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities, even if there is no relationship between such sales and the performance of our business.
We have never and do not, in the future, intend to pay dividends on our common shares, and your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the market price of our common shares.
We have never and do not, in the future, intend to pay dividends on our common shares, and your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the market price of our common shares.
We have never paid and do not expect to pay dividends on our common shares in the future. We intend to invest our future earnings, if any, to fund our growth and not to pay any cash dividends on our common shares. Since we do not intend to pay dividends, your ability to receive a return on your investment will depend on any future appreciation in the market price of our common shares. There is no assurance that our common shares will appreciate in price.
An active, liquid and orderly market for our common shares may not be sustained, and you may not be able to sell your common shares.
Our common shares trade on the NYSE American exchange. We cannot assure you that an active trading market for our common shares will be sustained. The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell the common shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling common shares and may impair our ability to acquire other businesses, applications or technologies using our common shares as consideration, which, in turn, could materially adversely affect our business.
We are subject to the continued listing requirements of the NYSE American. If we are unable to comply with such requirements, our common shares would be delisted from the NYSE American, which would limit investors’ ability to effect transactions in our common shares and subject us to additional trading restrictions.
Our common shares are currently listed on the NYSE American. In order to maintain our listing, we must maintain certain share prices, financial and share distribution targets, including maintaining a minimum amount of shareholders’ equity and a minimum number of public shareholders. In addition to these objective standards, the NYSE American may delist the securities of any issuer if, in its opinion, the issuer’s financial condition and/or operating results appear unsatisfactory; if it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of the security has become so reduced as to make continued listing on the NYSE American inadvisable; if the issuer sells or disposes of principal operating assets or ceases to be an operating company; if an issuer fails to comply with the NYSE American’s listing requirements; if an issuer’s common stock sells at what the NYSE American considers a “low selling price” (generally trading below $0.20 per share for an extended period of time); or if any other event occurs or any condition exists which makes continued listing on the NYSE American, in its opinion, inadvisable. Although the trading price of our common shares on the date of this report exceeded $0.20 per share, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, theaverage trading price of our common shares was well below $0.20 for a significant period of time. We received a deficiency letter from the NYSE American indicating that we were not in compliance with the listing requirements, because our common shares had been selling for a low price per share forover $0.20 per share during 2022, there was a substantial period time. Such deficiency was resolved in January 2021.
during the year when it dropped below.
If the NYSE American delists our common shares from trading on its exchange and we are not able to list our securities on another national securities exchange, we expect our common shares would qualify to be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:
| · ● | a limited availability of market quotations for our securities; |
| | |
| ● | · | reduced liquidity for our securities; |
| | |
| ● | · | a determination that our common shares are a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in our common shares to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities; |
| | |
| ● | · | a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and |
| | |
| ● | · | a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future. |
Risks Related to Income Taxes
We may in future implement the reduction in the stated capital account applicable to our common shares that has been approved by shareholders, and if we do, thereWe have generated U.S. NOLs, but our ability to use these U.S. NOLs is limited and any future U.S. NOLs we generate may be an adverse effect on holders of common shareslimited or impaired by future ownership changes.Our U.S. businesses have generated consolidated net operating loss carryforwards (“U.S. NOLs”) for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes of $32,456 as or the Company in connection with certain transactions, unless we are ableof December 31, 2022. Our ability to add backutilize any someU.S. or allNOLs after of the stated capital reductionan “ownership change” is subject to the stated capital account at that time.
At the Company’s annual and special meeting of shareholders held on September 25, 2020rules of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) Section 382. An ownership change occurs if, among other things, the shareholders approved a special resolution under the(or specified groups of shareholders) who ABCA authorizing the reductionown or have owned, directly or indirectly, five (5%) percent or more of the stated capital account applicable to the commonvalue of our shares or are otherwise treated as five (5%) percent shareholders under Section 382 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder increase their aggregate percentage ownership of the value of our shares by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of the value of the shares owned by these shareholders over a three year rolling period. An ownership change could also be triggered by other activities, including the sale of our shares that are owned by our five (5%) shareholders.
In the event of an ownership change, Section 382 imposes an annual limitation on the amount of taxable income we may offset with U.S. NOLs. This annual limitation is generally equal to the product of the value of our shares to US $1.00 in the aggregate without paymentUS operating entity on the date prior to the shareholders. The special resolution provided thatownership change multiplied by the reduction would be effective upon the date determined by any director or officer of the Company. As of the date hereof, the reduction has yet to be implemented. However, it could be implemented in the future, and if it is implemented, the reduction is expected to apply to the entire stated capital account applicable to the common shares at that time, including stated capital referenceable to common shares issued after the date of the meeting where the special resolution was approved. As disclosed in the proxy circular preparedlong-term tax-exempt rate in effect on the date of the ownership change. The long-term tax-exempt rate is published monthly by the IRS. Any unused Section 382 annual limitation may be carried over to later years until the applicable expiration date for the respective U.S. NOLs (if any).
We concluded that, due to the limitations under Section 382 of the Code, it is likely our U.S. NOL carryforwards for the periods prior to February 11, 2021, for $21,013 are limited to zero, and are not available to offset taxable income generated in the US in connection with the annual and special meetingfuture periods. Our U.S. NOL carryforwards are now $11,443. In the event another ownership change, the stated capital reduction is not expected to result in any immediate Canadian tax consequences to shareholders, and should not constitute a taxable event to shareholders under United States tax requirements. However, the reduction in stated capital could have future Canadian federal income tax consequences to shareholders or the Company, in connection with certain transactions, including a repurchase of the common shares by the Company or certain reorganization transactions. The Company currently intends that, if the stated capital reduction is implemented, the amount of the reduction will be added back to the stated capital account (or the portion thereof that is permitted to be added back under Canadian federal income tax legislation will be so added) in the futureas defined under Section 382 of the Code occurs in the future, in accordance with procedures contained in the ABCA. Such add back would be intended to be effected priorour ability to utilize any U.S. NOLs may be substantially limited. The consequence of this limitation could be the potential loss of a significant future cash flow benefit because we would no longer be able to substantially offset future taxable income with U.S. NOLs. There can be no assurance that such ownership change will not occur in the future.
We have generated net operating loss carryforwards for Canadian income tax purposes, but our ability to use these net operating losses may be limited by our inability to generate future taxable income in Canada.
Our Canadian businesses have generated net operating loss carryforwards of $46,384 (“Canadian NOLs”) for Canadian federal and provincial income tax purposes. These Canadian NOLs can be available to implementation of any transaction where the previous reduction of stated capital could have an adverse impact on shareholders or the Company. reduce Canadian income taxes that might otherwise be incurred on future Canadian taxable income. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be ablewe will generate the taxable income in the future necessary to utilize these Canadian NOLs. Our Canadian NOLs have expiration dates. There can be no assurance that, if and when we generate Canadian taxable income in the future, we will generate such taxable income before our Canadian NOLs expire.
Our ability to use any U.S. NOLs may be limited by our inability to generate future taxable income.
U.S. NOLs may be available to reduce income taxes that might otherwise be incurred on future U.S. taxable income. The utilization of these U.S. NOLs could have a positive effect on our cash flow. However, there can be no assurance that we will generate the taxable income in the future necessary to utilize these U.S. NOLs and realize the positive cash flow benefit.
We have generated Canadian NOLs, but our ability to reserve and use these Canadian NOLs may be limited or impaired by future ownership changes.
Our ability to utilize the Canadian NOLs after a “loss restriction event” is subject to the rules of the Income Tax Act (Canada). A loss restriction event will occur if, among other things, there is change of control (which would generally occur if a person or group of related persons acquired more than 50% of our voting shares). If we experience a “loss
restriction event”: (i) we will be deemed to effect the add back, or that the amount added backhave a year-end for Canadian tax purposes and (ii) we will avoidbe deemed to realize any adverse tax consequencesunrealized capital losses and our ability to shareholders orutilize and the Companycarry forward Canadian NOLs will be restricted.
We believe that we will be a “passive foreign investment company,” or PFIC, for the current taxable year, which could subject certain U.S. investors to materially adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.
We believe we were classified as a PFIC during our taxable year ended December 31, 20212022, and based on current business plans and financial expectations, we believe we may be a PFIC for the current and future taxable years. If we are a PFIC for any year in which you hold common shares and you are a U.S. holder, then you generally will be required to treat any gain realized upon a disposition of such common shares, or any so-called “excess distribution” received on your common shares, as ordinary income, and to pay an interest charge on a portion of such gain or distribution. In certain circumstances, the sum of the tax and the interest charge may exceed the total amount of proceeds you realize on the disposition or the amount of the excess distribution you receive. Subject to certain limitations, these tax consequences may be mitigated if you make a timely and effective Qualified Electing Fund election, or QEF Election, or a mark-to-market election, or Mark-to-Market Election. Subject to certain limitations, such elections may be made with respect to our common shares. If you are a U.S. holder and make a timely and effective QEF Election, you generally must report on a current basis your share of our net capital gain and ordinary earnings for any year in which we are a PFIC, whether or not we distribute any amount to you, thus giving rise to so-called “phantom income” and to a potential tax liability. However, U.S. holders should be aware that we do not intend to satisfy the record keeping requirements that apply to a “qualified electing fund,” or supply U.S. holders with information that such U.S. holders require to report under the QEF Election rules, in the event that we are a PFIC and a U.S. holder wishes to make a QEF Election. Thus, if you are a U.S. holder, you may not be able to make a QEF Election. If you are a U.S. Holder and make a timely and effective Mark-to-Market Election, you generally must include as ordinary income each year the excess of the fair market value of your common shares over your tax basis therein, thus also possibly giving rise to phantom income and a potential tax liability. Ordinary loss generally is recognized only to the extent of net mark-to-market gains previously included in income. Any holder of our common shares who is a U.S. taxpayer should consult its own tax advisors regarding the PFIC rules and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of our common shares.
If the Internal Revenue Service determines that we are not a PFIC and you previously paid taxes pursuant to a QEF Election or a Mark-to- Market Election, you may pay more taxes than you legally owe.
If the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, makes a determination that we are not a PFIC and you previously paid taxes pursuant to a QEF Election or Mark-to-Market Election, then you may have paid more taxes than you legally owed due to such election. If you do not, or are unable to, file a refund claim before the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, you will not be able to claim a refund for those taxes.

Overview Overview
We are a veterinary health company creating and marketing products for companion animals by focusing on the unmet needs of clinical veterinarians. Our mission is to enrich the lives of the animals we love and the people that care for them by providing products and technologies that improve patient care and enhance practicethe economic health of veterinary practices. Our product portfolio includes innovative diagnostics and therapeutic medical devices that emphasize patient health and enhancing practice economics.
We currently have twofive discrete platforms - our TRUFORMA® platform, comprising point-of-care diagnostic products for disease states in dogs and cats, and our PulseVet® platform, which provides for treatment of musculoskeletal issues in horses and small animals.
Dogs and cats commonly suffer from adrenal disorders and thyroid disease, including hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. We believe that diagnostic tests are vital for identifying these disorders in sick patients as well as for screening apparently healthy patients. In certain cases, multiple assays must be performed to reach a definitive diagnosis of a specific disease or condition. Clinical veterinarians often do not have access to the equipment and assays to perform this testing at the point-of- care. As a result, certain tests must be sent to a reference lab, resulting in delay in diagnosis and treatment, and depriving clinical veterinarians of potential testing revenue.
Through our TRUFORMA platform, we are focused on the development and commercialization of diagnostic instruments and related assays for use at the point-of-care that provide reference lab accuracy, thereby enabling practitioners to diagnose and treat diseases sooner.
Through our PulseVetin our product portfolio:

| • | Diagnostics, which consists of our parent company and its U.S subsidiary and includes the TRUFORMA products, and |
| | |
| • | Therapeutics, which consists of PulseVet operations and its two international subsidiaries, HMT High Medical Technologies (Japan) Co. Ltd. ("HMT") and NeoPulse, GmbH ("NeoPulse"), and includes the ProPulse products and services. |
Revenue
Our revenue consisted of instruments, cartridges, andOur revenue consisted of instruments, cartridges, extended warranty services and miscellaneous activities sold in the U.S in associationassociated with our TRUFORMA platform, as well as; instruments, trodes and warranty services sold in the U.S and internationally in associationassociated with our PulseVet products.platform; and consumables sold in the U.S. and internationally associated with our Assisi products.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consisted primarily of the cost of raw materials used in the assembly of PulseVet instruments and trodes, the cost of TRUFORMA instruments purchased, the cost of Assisi parts purchased and related sub-components, and consumables and the related warranties purchased. We expense all inventory obsolescence provisions related to normal manufacturing changes as cost of revenue.
Operating Expenses
Operating Expenses
The majority of our operating expenses through December 31, 2021, have been for the selling, general and administrative activities related to general business activities, capital market activities and, stock-based compensation, developing a commercial team and research and development activities related to our product development.
Research and Development Expense
All costs of research and development are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Research and development costs primarily consist of salaries and related expenses for personnel, fees paid to consultants, outside service providers, professional services, travel costs and materials used in clinical trials and research and development.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expense
Selling, general, and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel costs, including salaries, related benefits and stock-based compensation for employees, consultants and directors. These expenses also include costs associated with sales and marketing activityactivities, professional fees, and corporate administrative and overhead costs, including rent and other facilities costs, amortization, and depreciation.
Income Taxes
U.S. Taxes
As of December 31, 20212022, we had net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $28.1 million$32,456 and non-capital loss carryforwards for Canada of approximately $37.2 million$46,384, which will begin to expire in fiscal year 2035. We have evaluated the factors bearing upon the realizability of our deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of net operating loss carryforwards and non-capital loss carryforwards. We concluded that, due to the limitations under Section 382 of the Code, our U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryfowardscarryforwards for the periods prior to February 11, 2021 have been limited to zero. We therefore have derecognized $21.0 million,013 of our U.S. deferred tax assets, resulting in a remaining carryforward balance of $7.2 million11,443.
Inflation Reduction Act
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023.
The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax, such as repurchases under $1 million.
Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent we would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the business combination, extension or otherwise; (ii) the structure of a business combination; (iii) the nature and amount of any equity issuances in connection with a business combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a business combination but issued within the same taxable year of a business combination); and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
The IR Act also included a new 15% Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“CAMT”) that acts as a new book minimum tax of at least 15% of consolidated GAAP pre-tax income for corporations with average book income in excess of $1 billion. Any increase in our effective tax rate will depend on a number of factors, including any offsets for general business credits or changes in book income following business combinations. The CAMT is effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Lastly, the IR Act also creates several potentially beneficial tax credits to incentivize investments in certain technologies and industries.
We are in the process of evaluating the potential impacts of the IR Act. While we do not believe the IR Act will have a material negative impact on our business or our financial performance, the effects of the measures are unknown at this time. Our analysis is ongoing and incomplete, and it is possible that the IR Act could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our tax liability. We continue to monitor the IR Act and related regulatory developments to evaluate their potential impact on our business, tax rate and financial results.
Canadian Taxes
In Canada, due to the uncertainty of realizing any tax benefits as of December 31, 2021,2022 we continue to fully value our Canadian deferred tax assets.
Translation of Foreign Currencies
The functional currency, as determined by management, for our subsidiaries in the United States, Switzerland, and Canada is the U.S. dollar, which is also our reporting currency
.
The functional currency, as determined by management, for our Japanese subsidiary is the Japanese Yen. Japanese Yen are translated for financial reporting purposes with translation gains and losses recorded as a component of other comprehensive income or loss.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-Based Compensation
We measure the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.
We calculate stock-based compensation using the fair value method, under which the fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, and subsequently expensed over the vesting period of the option using the graded vesting method. The provisions of our stock-based compensation plans do not require us to settle any options by transferring cash or other assets, and therefore we classify the awards as equity. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest. We estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise these estimates, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The expected term, which represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, is estimated based on an average of the term of the options. The risk-free rate assumed in valuing the options is based on the Canadian treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield percentage at the date of grant is zero as we are not expected to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
Loss Per Share
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share, or EPS, is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders, including the charge to retained earnings from the preferred share exchange, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through the exercise or conversion of stock options, restricted stock awards, warrants and convertible securities. In certain circumstances, the conversion of options, warrants and convertible securities are excluded from diluted EPS if the effect of such inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
The dilutive effect of stock options is determined using the treasury stock method. Stock options and warrants to purchase our common shares issued during the period were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, as the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive Loss
We follow FASB ASC topic 220. This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive (loss) income and its components. Comprehensive loss is net loss plus certain items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those described below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 4 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this documentAnnual Report on Form 10-K, management has identified the following as “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”: Intangible Assets and Business Combinations, Inventory Reserves,; Impairment Testing; Valuation and Payback of Property and Equipment; and Revenue Recognition and Liabilities dueDue to Customers. We believe that the estimates and assumptions involved in these accounting policies may have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements.
Intangible Assets and Business Combinations
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of a business combination are recognized at their acquisition date fair values. In determining these fair values for recent business combinations, we utilizedutilize various forms of the income, cost, and market approaches depending on the asset or liability being valued.
We useduse a discounted cash flow model to measure the trade names, customer relationshiprelationships, and technology assets. The estimation of fair value requiredrequires significant judgment related to future net cash flows based on assumptions related to revenue and EBITDA growth rates, discount rates, and attrition factors. Inputs wereare generally determined by taking into account competitive trends, market comparisons, independent appraisals, and historical data, among other factors, and were supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions.
Variances in future cash flows, anticipated growth rates, and revenue could significantly impact the value assigned to intangible assets. Any variance could cause impairment charges upon testing.
Impairment Testing
We will evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change indicating the carrying value may not be recoverable. When testing goodwill for impairment, we may first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. During a qualitative analysis, we consider the impact of changes, if any, to the following factors: macroeconomic, industry and market factors; cost factors; changes in overall financial performance; and any other relevant events and uncertainties impacting a reporting unit. If our qualitative assessment indicates a goodwill impairment is more likely than not, we perform additional quantitative analyses. We may also elect to skip the qualitative testing and proceed directly to the quantitative testing. For reporting units where a quantitative analysis is performed, we will perform a test measuring the fair values of the reporting units and comparing them to their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. If the fair value is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit, an impairment is recognized for the difference, up to the carrying amount of goodwill.
We willWe estimate the fair values of our reporting units using a discounted cash flow method or a weighted combination of discounted cash flows and a market-based method. The discounted cash flow method includes assumptions about a wide variety of internal and external factors. Significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method include financial projections of free cash flow, including revenue trends, medical costs trends, operating productivity, income taxes and capital levels; long-term growth rates for determining terminal value beyond the discretely forecasted periods; and discount rates. Financial projections and long-term growth rates used for our reporting units will be consistent with, and use inputs from, our internal long-term business plan and strategies.
Discount rates will be determined for each reporting unit and include consideration of the implied risk inherent in their forecasts. Our most significant estimate in the discount rate determinations involves our adjustments to the peer company weighted average costs of capital reflecting reporting unit-specific factors. We willdo not make any adjustments to decrease a discount rate below the calculated peer company weighted average cost of capital for any reporting unit. Company-specific adjustments to discount rates are subjective and thus are difficult to measure with certainty.
The passage of time and the availability of additional information regarding areas of uncertainty with respect to the reporting units’ operations could cause these assumptions to change in the future. Additionally, as part of our quantitative impairment testing, we will
impairment testing, we perform various sensitivity analyses on certain key assumptions, such as discount rates, cash flow projections, and peer company multiples to analyze the potential for a material impact. The market-based method requires determination of an appropriate peer group whose securities are traded on an active market. The peer group is used to derive market multiples to estimate fair value. As of October 1, 2021
We elected to perform a quantitative analysis as part of our annual goodwill impairment test for fiscal year 2022. As of October 1, 2022, we did not complete an annual impairment tests for goodwill asour PulseVet, Assisi, and Revo Squared reporting units indicated that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount, including goodwill, by 25%, 7%, and 51%, respectively. Accordingly, there was no goodwill prior to our acquisition of PulseVetwere no goodwill impairment charges recorded as part of the Company’s 2022 annual goodwill impairment test.
The carrying value of goodwill for the PulseVet, Assisi, and Revo Squared reporting units at December 31, 2022 were $43.4 million, $14.3 million, and $6.1 million, respectively.
The implied fair value for each reporting unit was calculated on a standalone basis using a weighted combination of the income approach and market approach. The implied fair values of each reporting unit were added together along with our unallocated assets to get an indicated value of total equity. This indicated value was compared to the total market capitalization as of October 3, 2022. This implied a control premium of 40.9%. This control premium is in line with the control premiums observed in the last five years in the Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies industry which have historically been significantly higher than the aggregate control premiums across all other industries. As a result, the market capitalization reconciliation analysis provided support for the reasonableness of the fair values estimated for each individual reporting unit.
Inventory Reserves
Although the Company believes its estimates of fair value are reasonable, actual financial results could differ from those estimates due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making such estimates. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results, an increase in the discount rate, or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on the fair value of the reporting units and we could be required to record an impairment charge. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, a 100-basis point increase in the discount rate would have resulted in each reporting unit fair value exceeding its carrying value except for Assisi. Additionally, future declines in the overall market value of the Company’s equity may also result in a conclusion that the fair value of one or more reporting units has declined below its carrying value.
Valuation and Payback of Property and Equipment
Our Diagnostics segment purchases instruments and places them in inventory. Instruments are removed from inventory and recorded as fixed assets when, where they remain, undepreciated, until they are placed with our customers under the agreement that they will repeatedly purchase assays (tests) which are utilized in the instrument. Each instrument placed in the portfolio represents an asset that we own. An estimate is made of the anticipated future revenue over the life of the instrument, based on the sale of assays, which is typically ten years. If the payback period of the initial investment in the asset is less than the ten-year life of the asset, we conclude that the inventory hasassets have been properly recorded, and no write-down is necessary. We rely on third-party data that considers various data points and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the expected volume of assays which will be sold, anticipated growth rates and placements of instruments. Realization of the anticipated revenue is dependent on the current assumptions and forecasted models.
The customer is obligated to purchase assays during the placement period. However, since the customer is not obligated to purchase the instrument, and can return it at any time, we are exposed to a risk of loss to the extent the customer returns the instrument and discontinues assay purchases.
On December 31, 20212022, the carrying value of our Diagnostic inventoryinstruments was approximately $1.8 million$901. A significant assumption included in the realization model is a placement rate of twofour instruments per monthquarter, per account manager.
or inside sales representative.
The effect of a 1025% reduction in the estimated revenues associated with annual placements of instrumentinstruments would increase the payback period on December 31, 2021,2022 byfrom .094.40 years to 6.25 years.
Changes to placement rates are not expected to decrease, nor do we expect that any decrease would be permanent.
Revenue Recognition and Liabilities Due to Customers
The nature of our Therapeutics business segment gives rise to variable consideration, including discounts and applicator (“trode”) returns for refurbishment. Credits are issued for unused shocks on returned trodes, which can be used toward the purchase of replacement trodes. When revenue is recognized, a simultaneous adjustment for returns is estimated, reducing revenue. Estimated return credits are presented as a reduction to gross sales with the corresponding reserve presented as customer contract liabilities.
Variable consideration related to unused shock credits is calculated using the expected value method, which estimates the amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Estimates of variable consideration are based upon historical experience and known trends. These estimated credits are non-refundable and may only be used towards the purchase of future trode refurbishments. This practice encourages refurbishment purchase prior to complete utilization of the previous trode, soenabling the customer willto always have a trode aton hand with ample capacity to perform treatments.
The number of trodes returned by year is tracked against the number of trodes sold in that same year, creating a current experience rate. It is assumed that the ultimate return rate for the trodes is 9698%. For annual calculations, it is assumed that the expected returns in the current year for each layer increase to the experience rate of the year immediately preceding it. Once the 9698% is reached the layer is removed from the calculation. The annual incremental change in expected returns is multiplied by an average return credit amount, generating the current liability due to customers.
The average return credit is calculated by dividing the actual shock credits issued by the actual number of trodes returned. A variance in the assumed return rate compared to the actual rate would impact the estimate and potentially understate net sales (overestimated rate) or overstate net sales (underestimated rate) in any given year and create a corresponding misstatement of the liability due to customers.
On December On December 31, 20212022, the estimated value of our Therapeutics customer contract liability was approximately $340,000$389. If the expected return rate was increased by 2%, the effect on current year reduction in sales and customer liability would have been approximately $274,00022.

We anticipate that R&D costs will increase as we maintain and enhance our current product lines and continue to develop new products.
Selling, General, and Administrative
Selling, general, and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022 was approximately $22.7 million$32,997, compared to approximately $8.7 million$22,755 for the year ended December 31, 20202021, an increase of approximately $14.0 million,$10,242 or 16045%. The increase was due to an increase inprimarily driven by salaries, bonus and benefits of approximately $8.0 million primarily resulting from an increase in share-based compensation expense of approximately $5.4 million compared to the 2020 year, and an increase in salaries for marketing, sales and other administrative personnel of approximately $2.6 million relating to the build-out of our internal sales force and(noncash) stock option expense associated with increased hiring campaigns, the inclusion of PulseVet in our results in the fourth quarter of 2021. Professional fees also increased by approximately $3.6 million, related primarily to, Revo Squared and Assisi headcount, acquisition-related intangible amortization, increases in office expense, travel and tradeshow attendance/sponsorships associated with a lifting of COVID restrictions, our introduction of the PulseVet acquisitionnew TRUFORMA® assays, the exchangeand marketing of our Series 1 preferred stock, and increased fees associated with SEC compliance requirements. Regulatory fees increased for the annual shareholders meeting of approximately $0.7 million largely as a result of administrative costs related to increases in the shareholder base. Other increases for approximately $1.7 million include marketing, depreciation and amortization, travel costs, contracted expenditure and insurance expense. We expectnew product lines.
We expect future selling, general and administrative expense to increase in 2022line as a result of increased headcount relating to the acquisition of PulseVet and the expansion ofwith product expansion and growth in our sales and marketing activitiescommercialization efforts.

CashNet cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022 was approximately $219.2 million$8, compared to approximately $76.7 million$219,159 for the year ended December 31, 20202021, an increasea decrease of approximately $142.4 million,$219,151 or 186approximately 100%. The increaseCash provided by financing activities in 2021 primarily resulted primarilyfrom proceeds from the saleFebruary 2021 public offering of our equity securities in 2021 for total gross proceeds of approximately $199.5 million, cash received of approximately $32.1 million from warrant exercises, and cash received of approximately $1.8 million from stock option exercises,common shares, partially offset by stock issuance costs of approximately $14.3 million. .
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception in May 2015. As of December 31, 20212022, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $119.4 million$136,404. We have funded our working capital requirements primarily through the sale of our equity and equity-related securities and the exercise of stock options and warrants.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $195.0 million, inventory of approximately $2.8 million, prepaid expenses and deposits of approximately $1.8 million, trade receivables of approximately $ 0.3 million and other receivables approximately $0.5 million.. Current assets amounted to approximately $200.4 million with current liabilities of approximately $4.3 million, resulting in2022, the Company had working capital (defined as current assets minus current liabilities) of approximately $196.1 million.$115,690.
Short Short-Term Cash Requirements
We believe that our existing cash is sufficient to fund our expected short-term needs. We currently have cash fixed obligations in association with our building leases and quarterly inventory orders. We also have payment obligations associated with our on-going clinical studies, and we expect that we have sufficient cash to cover these requirements. We do not expect that PulseVet’sour operations will require significant increases in our short-term cash needs.
Long Long-Term Cash Requirements
We believe that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund our expected operational requirements through at least December 2024 2025. We regularly evaluate our business plans and strategy. These evaluations often result in changes to our business plans and strategy, some of which may be material and significantly change our cash requirements. Ongoing business development activity may also require us to use some of our liquidity for an acquisition, and use of additional capital to fund newly acquired operations. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our existing security holders will likely experience dilution;, and the incurring of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that could restrict operations.
Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:
| · ● | the costs and timing of our development and commercialization activities; |
| | |
| ● | · | the cost of manufacturing our existing and future products; |
| | |
| ● | · | the cost of marketing and selling our existing and future products, including marketing, sales, service, customer support and distribution costs; |
| | |
| ● | · | the expenses needed to attract and retain skilled personnel; |
| | |
| ● | · | the costs associated with being a public company; |
| | |
| ● | · | the costs associated with additional business development or mergers and acquisitions activity, including acquisition-related costs, earn-outs or other contingent payments and costs of developing and commercializing any technologies to which we obtain rights; |
| | |
| ● | · | third-party costs associated with the development and commercialization of our existing and future products and the ability of our development partners to satisfy our requirements on a timely basis; |
| | |
| ● | · | the scope and terms of our business plans from time to time, and our ability to realize upon our business plans; and |
| | |
| ● | · | the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending and enforcing possible patent claims, including litigation costs and the outcome of any such litigation. |

All of the currently outstanding warrants also have a “cashless exercise” feature which is applicable in certain circumstances. The cashless exercise feature could result in the potential issuance of common shares based upon the “in-the-money” value of the applicable warrants at the time of exercise of the applicable warrants. The number of the common shares that may be issued is not determinable. However, the number of common shares that are issuable is based upon a formula contained in the applicable warrants, which determines the number of common shares issuable by dividingthat divides the “in-the-money” value (based upon the then current market price, as provided in the applicable warrants) by the then current market price and multiplying this result by the number of common shares that are issuable under the applicable warrants pursuant to cash exercise.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, the FASB or other standard setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASC are communicated through issuance of an ASU. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.
To understand the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted, please review the information provided in Note 3 3 - Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements.
Item Climate ChangeThere is general consensus in the scientific community that greenhouse gas emissions are linked to climate change, and that these emissions must be reduced dramatically to avert its worst effects. As a result, increased public awareness and concern about climate change will likely continue to (1) generate more regional and/or national requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; (2) increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon pollution; and (3) cause a shift to cleaner and more sustainable sources of energy which may be more expensive than using fossil fuels as an energy source.
The potential impact of climate change on our operations and the needs of our customers remains uncertain. Scientists have proposed that the impacts of climate change could include changes in rainfall patterns, water shortages, changes to the water levels of lakes and other bodies of water, changing storm patterns, more intense storms and changing temperature levels. These changes could be severe and vary by geographic location. Climate change may also affect the occurrence of certain natural events, the incidence and severity of which are inherently unpredictable.
The effects of climate change also may impact our decisions to construct new buildings or maintain existing facilities in any areas that are or become prone to physical risks, which could similarly increase our operating costs. We could also face indirect financial risks passed through the supply chain that could result in higher prices for resources, such as energy. Additionally, climate change may adversely impact the demand, price and availability of property and casualty insurance that insures our physical assets. Due to significant economic variability associated with future changing climate conditions, we are unable to predict the impact climate change will have on us in the future.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and our report dated March 1, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting (“Management’s Report”). Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audit of, and opinion on, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting does not include the internal control over financial reporting of Branford PVT Acquiror, Inc., (“PulseVet”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, whose financial statements reflect total assets and revenues constituting 1.5 and 99 percent, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. As indicated in Management’s Report, PulseVet was acquired during 2021. Management’s assertion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting excluded internal control over financial reporting of PulseVet.
Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Valuation of developed technology, trade name and customer relationship intangible assets acquiredand earnout liability
As described further in Note 57 to the consolidated financial statements, on OctoberJuly 1, 20212022, the Company acquired 100% of the stockassets of Branford PVT AcquirerRevo Squared, Inc.LLC for $717.98 million in cash and equity. On July 15, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of the assets of Assisi Animal Health LLC for $23.0 million in cash and equity. As part of the acquisitionacquisitions, the Company acquired $333.7 million and $7.8 million, respectively of intangible assets, including developed technologytechnologies, trade namenames, an e-commerce platform and customer relationships. The Company also entered into an earnout agreement associated with the Revo Squared acquisition initially valued at $2.5 million. The Company used a discounted cash flow model to measure the customer relationship intangible assets and earnout liability and a relief from royalty model to measure the technology, e-commerce platform and trade name acquired. We identified the valuation of developed technology, trade name and customer relationship intangible assets acquiredand earnout liability as a critical audit matter.
The principal consideration for our determination that the valuation of developed technology, trade name and customer relationship intangible assets acquired is a critical audit matter is the high degree of auditor judgment necessary in evaluating certain and earnout liability is a critical audit matter is the high degree of auditor judgment necessary in evaluating certain
inputs and assumptions made by management in the valuation models used to determine fair value. Those key assumptions include revenue growth rates, royalty rates, customer attrition rates and discount rates. , operating leverage, volatility and discount rates.
Our audit procedures related to the valuation of developed technology, trade name and customer relationship intangible assets acquiredand earnout liability included the following, among others.
● | · | We obtained an understanding and testedof the design and operating effectiveness of relevant controls within the Company'’s process to value acquired intangible assets, including the Company'’s control over the selection and review of the reasonableness of assumptions used in determining fair value. |
| | |
| ● | · | We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company'’s forecasted revenue growth rates used to value developed technology, trade name and customer relationship intangible assets and earnout liability by (1) comparing forecasted revenue growth rates to historical growth rates of peer companies (2) comparing forecasted revenue growth rates to historical growth rates of the acquired entityentities and (32) comparing forecasted revenue growth rates to available industry and market data. |
| | |
| ● | · | We involved our valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, to evaluate key inputs and assumptions used to determine fair value. Our valuation professionals compared the estimated annual customer attrition rate used to value the customer relationship intangible asset to historical customer retention data of the acquired company, compared the discount rate used to value the developed technology, trade name and customer relationship intangible assets to independently developed discount rates derived from publicly available data for comparable companies and compared the royalty rates used to value the developed technology and trade name to royalty rates derived from publicly available data for comparable companies. and compared the volatility and operating leverage used to value the earnout liability to publicly available data for comparable companies. |
/s/ Goodwill Impairment Analysis
As described further in Note 4 to the financial statements, goodwill is evaluated for impairment at least annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change indicating the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company performs a quantitative test to measure the fair values of the reporting units and comparing them to their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. The fair values are estimated using a discounted cash flow method, which includes significant assumptions such as financial projections of free cash flow, revenue trends, operating productivity, income taxes and capital levels. We identified goodwill impairment analysis as a critical audit matter.
The principal consideration for our determination that the goodwill impairment analysis is a critical audit matter is the high degree of auditor judgment necessary in evaluating certain inputs and assumptions made by management in the valuation models used to determine the fair value of the reporting units. Those key assumptions include forecasted revenue growth, operating income, and discount rates.
Our audit procedures related to the goodwill impairment analysis included the following, among others.
| ● | We obtained an understanding of the design of relevant controls within the Company’s process to perform the goodwill impairment analysis, including the Company’s control over the selection and review of the reasonableness of assumptions used in determining fair value. |
| ● | We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s forecasted revenue growth, operating income and discount rates used by comparing these assumptions to historical operating results for the reporting units and relevant available industry and market data. |
| ● | We involved our valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, to evaluate key inputs and assumptions used in the discounted cash flow models to determine fair value. Our valuation professionals compared the discount rates used to value the reporting units to independently developed discount rates derived from publicly available data and re-performed the discounted cash flow calculations. |

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. Nature of operations Operations
The Company Zomedica is a veterinary health company creating products for companion animals by focusing on the unmet needs of clinical veterinarians. The Company consists of the parent company, Zomedica Corp and its wholly-owned U.S subsidiary, Zomedica Inc. and its international subsidiaries.
The impact of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”)
The outbreakSince the first quarter of the2020, the world has been impacted by the spread of a novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “its variants, and the disease that they cause known as COVID-19”,. The continued presence of COVID-19 has resulted in the World Health Organization declaring this virus a global pandemic in March 2020. Governments around the world enacted emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures included the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periodschanges in the macro-economic environment including disruptions in supply chain, labor disruptions, challenges in manufacturing, challenges selling to customers, declines in customer demand, inflationary pressures, and social distancing. The closure of businesses caused material disruption to businesses resulting in an economic slowdown. Governments and central banks responded with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize the financial markets.
an impaired ability to access credit and capital markets, among other things.
The COVID-19 pandemic materially and adversely affected the development and commercialization of our TRUFORMA® platform and the initial five assays. In response to the pandemic, our development partner had reduced the number of employees working in its facilities for a period of time which delayed the completion of theand verification of the five initial TRUFORMA® assays and the manufacturing of commercial quantities of the TRUFORMA® platform and the related assays. Veterinary hospitals and clinics that had agreed to participate in the validation of our initial TRUFORMA® assays either shut down for a period of time or limited their operations to those involving only life-threatening conditions, which we have mitigated to a certain extent with our recent ability to successfully complete remote installations. Potential customers have, at times, restricted access to their facilities which has affected and may continue to affect our ability to perform on-site demonstrations and other marketing activities.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the duration of the outbreak, the spread and severity of COVID-19, and the effectiveness of governmental actions in response to the pandemic.
TheTo-date, the emergence of the omicron variantnew variants has not caused significant modification to business operations. We continue to install remotely, if potential customers restrict access to their facilities. We intend to continue development of new assays, both for equine indications of our current and planned assays, and for various additional disease states affecting canine, feline, and equine patients in the future.

Business Combinations
We account for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, if the acquired assets assumed and liabilities incurred constitute a business. We consider acquired companies to constitute a business if the acquired net assets and processes have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue. For acquired companies constituting a business, we recognize the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values and recognize any excess of total consideration paid over the fair value of the identifiable net assets as goodwill.
Estimates and assumptions
AssumptionsIn preparing these financial statements, management was required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on our historical experience, the terms of existing contracts, our evaluation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and suppliers and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. These estimates and assumptions are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We are not presently aware of any events or circumstances that would require us to update such estimates and assumptions or revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. Our estimates may change, however, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.
Zomedica Corp.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020
| (Stated in United States dollars) |
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company utilizes the specific identification and First in, First out ("FIFO") method to track inventory costs. The Company records reserves, when necessary, to reduce the carrying value of inventory to its net realizable value. Management considers forecast demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitiveness of product offerings, market conditions and product life cycles when determining excess and obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments. At the point of loss recognition, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established, and any subsequent improvements in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis.
Intangible Assets
Expenditures related to the planning and operation of the Company’s website are expensed as incurred. Expenditures related to the website application and infrastructure development are capitalized and amortized over the website’s estimated useful life.
Costs related to acquired trademarks, tradename, customer relationships and developed technology have been capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life.
Revenue recognition
The Company enters into agreements which may contain multiple promises where customers purchase products, services or a combination thereof. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires judgment. We determine the transaction price for a contract based on the total consideration we expect to receive in exchange for the transferred goods or services.
The Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation in proportion to the relative standalone selling prices and recognizes revenue when control of the related goods or services is transferred for each obligation. We utilize the observable standalone selling price when available, which represents the price charged for the performance obligation when sold separately.
The Company’s contracts with customers are generally comprised of purchase orders for the sale of the point of care instrument, consumable products, and warranties, or some variation thereof. The instrument and consumables each represent a single performance obligation when sold separately, that is satisfied at a point in time upon transfer of control of the product to the customer which is typically upon receipt of the goods by the customer. The warranties are also a separate performance obligation, whereby revenue is recognized over time.
At times the Company receives consideration prior to when the performance obligation is completed, giving rise to a contract liability.
Sales are recorded net of sales tax. Sales tax is charged on sales to end users and remitted to the appropriate state authority.
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value and have payment terms of 30 days. The Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts for $34,000, which is recorded net in trade receivables.
The Diagnostics segment reported $125,361 in revenue from consumables. The Therapeutics segment reported $1,792,865 in revenue from instruments, $2,072,582 from trodes, $28,959, from warranties and services, and $113,356 from other revenues.
Cost of revenue
Cost of goods sold consists of materials, and shipping costs incurred internally to produce and receive the products. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.

Comparative figures
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The change in presentation had no effect on the reported results of operations. Adjustments have been made to the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for year ended December 31, 2020. These changes in classification do not affect previously reported cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except as otherwise noted.
Functional and reporting currencies
Functional and Reporting Currencies
The functional currency, as determined by management, for our subsidiaries in the United States, Switzerland, and Canada is U.S. dollars, which is also our reporting currency.
The functional currency, as determined by management, for our Japanese subsidiary is Japanese Yen. Japanese Yen are translated for financial reporting purposes with translation gains and losses recorded as a component of other comprehensive income or loss.
In respect of transactions denominated in currencies other than the Company and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries’ functional currencies, the monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the period end rates. Revenue and expenses are measured at rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates. All of the exchange gains or losses resulting from these transactions are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
Comparative FiguresConstruction in progress is separately stated in the current period balance sheet for $692. The consolidated balance sheets for the year ended December 31, 2021 have been adjusted for $420 of construction in progress that was included in intangible assets and property and equipment. This amount has been reclassified to a separate line in the balance sheet to conform to the current year presentation. The change in presentation had no effect on the reported results of operations. These changes in classification do not affect previously reported cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2022 and there was no significant impact on its consolidated condensed financial statements and related disclosures as a result. The Company considered, among other things, historical trends and projected economic / market conditions and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted.

Segment Reporting
The Company reports segment information based on the “management” approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s reportable segments, reporting of which began in 2021, consist of Diagnostics and Therapeutics.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property and equipmentInvestment Securities
Our investment securities, which are comprised of corporate bonds/notes and US treasuries, are accounted for in accordance with ASC 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC 320”). The company considers all of its securities for which there is a determinable fair market value, and there are no restrictions on the Company’s ability to sell within the next 12 months, as available for sale. We classify these securities as both current and non-current depending on their time to maturity. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of shareholders’ equity.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivables are recorded net of an allowance for credit losses and have payment terms of 30 days. Our policy for determining the allowance is based on factors that affect collectability, including: (a) historical trends of write-offs, recoveries, and credit losses; (b) the credit quality of our customers; and (c) projected economic and market conditions. As of December 31, 2022, our allowance was $71 and was recorded net in trade receivables. While we believe that our allowance for credit losses is adequate and represents our best estimate as of December 31, 2022, we continue to closely monitor customer liquidity and industry and economic conditions, which may result in changes to these estimates.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company utilizes the specific identification and First in, First out ("FIFO") method to track inventory costs. The Company records reserves, when necessary, to reduce the carrying value of inventory to its net realizable value. Management considers forecast demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitiveness of product offerings, market conditions and product life cycles when determining excess and obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments. At the point of loss recognition, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established, and any subsequent improvements in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Property and equipment acquired in a business combination are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. Maintenance and repair expenditures that do not improve or extend the life are expensed in the period incurred.
Depreciation is recognized so as to write off the cost less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each year, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
TRUFORMA instruments utilized in the Customer Appreciation Program, ("CAP") are reclassified fromDuring the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the company changed its policy of recognizing TRUFORMA® instruments as inventory and categorized as property and equipment, which is depreciated over the estimated useful life.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For assets that are to be held and used, impairment is recognized when the sum of estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than its carrying value. If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value.

Revenue Recognition
The Company enters into agreements which may contain multiple promises where customers purchase products, services, or a combination thereof. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately requires judgment. We determine the transaction price for a contract based on the total consideration we expect to receive in exchange for the transferred goods or services.
The Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation in proportion to the relative standalone selling prices and recognizes revenue when control of the related goods or services is transferred for each obligation. We utilize the observable standalone selling price when available, which represents the price charged for the performance obligation when sold separately.
The Company's contracts with customers are generally comprised of purchase orders for the sale of the point of care instrument, consumable products, and extended warranties, or some variation thereof. The instrument and consumables each represent a single performance obligation when sold separately, that is satisfied at a point in time upon transfer of control of the product to the customer which is typically upon receipt of the goods by the customer. The extended warranties are also a separate performance obligation, whereby revenue is recognized over time.
The nature of the Company’s PulseVet business gives rise to variable consideration, including discounts and applicator (“trode”) returns for refurbishment. Credits are issued for unused shocks on returned trodes, which can be used toward the purchase of replacement trodes. Discounts and the estimated unused shock credits decrease the transaction price, which reduces revenue. Variable consideration related to unused shock credits is estimated using the expected value method, which estimates the amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration are based upon historical experience and known trends. These estimated credits are nonrefundable and may only be used towards the purchase of future trode refurbishments. This practice encourages refurbishment purchase prior to complete utilization of the previous trode, so the customer will always have a trode on hand with ample capacity to perform treatments.
At times the Company receives consideration prior to when the performance obligation is completed, giving rise to a contract liability. Sales are recorded net of sales tax. Sales tax is charged on sales to end users and remitted to the appropriate state authority.
Disaggregated revenue for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

Stock-based Compensation
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted if the fair value of the goods or services received by the Company cannot be reliably estimated.
The Company calculates stock-based compensation using the fair value method, under which the fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, and subsequently expensed over the vesting period of the option using the graded vesting method. The provisions of the Company’s stock-based compensation plans do not require the Company to settle any options by transferring cash or other assets, and therefore the Company classifies the awards as equity. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.
The Company estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and revisedrevises the estimate, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Loss per share
Basic loss per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through the exercise or conversion of stock options, restricted stock awards, warrants and convertible securities. In certain circumstances, the conversion of options is excluded from diluted EPS if the effect of such inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
The dilutive effect of stock options is determined using the treasury stock method. Stock options to purchase common shares of the Company during fiscal 2021 and 2020 were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the Company has incurred a loss for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Business combinations
We account for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, if the acquired assets assumed and liabilities incurred constitute a business. We consider acquired companies to constitute a business if the acquired net assets and processes have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue. For acquired companies constituting a business, we recognize the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values and recognize any excess of total consideration paid over the fair value of the identifiable net assets as goodwill.
Comprehensive loss
The Company follows ASC topic 220. This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive (loss) income and its components. Comprehensive loss is net loss plus certain items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity. The Company has recorded a currency translation adjustment associated with its Japanese subsidiary.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives and amortization methods are reviewed at the end of each year, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Fair value measurement
Under ASC topic 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). ASC topic 820 establishes a hierarchy for inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. There are three levels to the hierarchy based on the reliability of inputs, as follows:
| · | Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
Zomedica Corp.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020
(Stated in United States dollars) |
| · | Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active. |
| | |
| · | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. |
The degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
Income taxes
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, on a tax jurisdictional basis. The Company files income tax returns in Canada and the province of Alberta and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and various states, including in Michigan where the Company'’s headquarters are located.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts using enacted tax rates and laws in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets when it is determined to be more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company assesses the likelihood of the financial statement effect of an uncertain tax position that should be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the tax position, circumstances, and information available as of the reporting date. The Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities in jurisdictions such as the United States and Canada. The Company recognizes tax-related interest and penalties, if any, as a component separate from income tax expense..

Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.
Critical areas of estimation and judgements in applying accounting policies include the following:
Intangible Assets and Business Combinations
Assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as part of a business combination are recognized at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill asIn determining these fair values, we utilize various forms of the acquisition dateincome, cost, is measured asand market approaches depending on the excessasset of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumedor liability being valued.
We use a discounted cash flow model to measure the trade names, customer relationship, and technology assets. The Company considers inputs to value the assets and liabilitiesestimation of fair value requires significant judgment related to future net cash flows based on assumptions related to revenue and EBITDA growth rates, discount rates, and attrition factors. Inputs are generally determined by taking into account competitive trends, market comparisons, independent appraisals, and historical data, among other factors, asand are supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions. The valuation inputs in these analyses are based on market participant assumptions. The Company
Impairment Testing
We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change indicating the carrying value may not be recoverable. When testing goodwill for impairment, we may first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. During a qualitative analysis, we consider the impact of changes, if any, to the following factors: macroeconomic, industry and market factors; cost factors; changes in overall financial performance; and any other relevant events and uncertainties impacting a reporting unit. If our qualitative assessment indicates a goodwill impairment is more likely than not, we perform additional quantitative analyses. We may refine these estimatesalso elect to skip the qualitative testing and record adjustmentsproceed directly to an asset or liability with the offset to goodwill during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.
Inventory Reserves
Management considers forecast demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitivenessthe quantitative testing. For reporting units where a quantitative analysis is performed, we perform a test measuring the fair values of the reporting units and comparing them to their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. If the fair value is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit, an impairment is recognized for the difference, up to the carrying amount of goodwill.
We estimate the fair values of our reporting units using a discounted cash flow method or a weighted combination of discounted cash flows and a market-based method. The discounted cash flow method includes assumptions about a wide variety of internal and external factors. Significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method include financial projections of free cash flow, including revenue trends, medical costs trends, operating productivity, income taxes and capital levels; long-term growth rates for determining terminal value beyond the discretely forecasted periods; and discount

rates. Financial projections and long-term growth rates used for our reporting units will be consistent with, and use inputs from, our internal long-term business plan and strategies.
Discount rates will be determined for each reporting unit and include consideration of the implied risk inherent in their forecasts. Our most significant estimate in the discount rate determinations involves our adjustments to the peer company weighted average costs of product offerings, market conditions and product life cycles when determining excess and obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments. At the point of loss recognition, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established, and any subsequent improvements in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basiscapital reflecting reporting unit-specific factors. We do not make any adjustments to decrease a discount rate below the calculated peer company weighted average cost of capital for any reporting unit. Company-specific adjustments to discount rates are subjective and thus are difficult to measure with certainty.
The passage of time and the availability of additional information regarding areas of uncertainty with respect to the reporting units’ operations could cause these assumptions to change in the future. Additionally, as part of our quantitative impairment testing, we perform various sensitivity analyses on certain key assumptions, such as discount rates, cash flow projections, and peer company multiples to analyze the potential for a material impact. The market-based method requires determination of an appropriate peer group whose securities are traded on an active market. The peer group is used to derive market multiples to estimate fair value.
Valuation and Payback of Property and Equipment
Our Diagnostics segment purchases instruments and places them in fixed assets, where they remain, undepreciated, until they are placed with our customers under the agreement that they will repeatedly purchase assays (tests) which are utilized in the instrument. Each instrument placed in the portfolio represents an asset that we own. An estimate is made of the anticipated future revenue over the life of the instrument, based on the sale of assays, which is typically ten years. If the payback period of the initial investment in the asset is less than the ten-year life of the asset, we conclude that the assets have been properly recorded, and no write-down is necessary. We rely on third-party data that considers various data points and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the expected volume of assays which will be sold, anticipated growth rates and placements of instruments. Realization of the anticipated revenue is dependent on the current assumptions and forecasted models.

6. Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” (“ASC 820”), the Company measures its cash and cash equivalents and investments at fair value on a recurring basis. The company also measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis when applying acquisition accounting.
ASC Topic 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
| Level 1: | Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2: | Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. |
Table of Contents
Zomedica Corp.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(United States Dollars in Thousands)
| Level 3: | Unobservable data points for the assets or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and involve management judgement and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participants and pricing. |
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable: The carrying amount of these assets approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. Cash and cash equivalents include marketable securities with an original maturity within 90 days.
Available-for-sale securities: The Company classifies marketable securities and other highly liquid investments, with a maturity of greater than three months and that can be readily purchased or sold using established markets, as available-for-sale. These investments are reported at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of shareholders’ equity.
Earnout liability: The Company has reported the fair value of the earnout liability within other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. See footnote 7 for additional details.
Included within these available-for-sale securities is a $1M convertible note associated with Structured Monitoring Products, Inc.’s (“SMP”) VetGuardian™ line. There were no unrealized gains or losses recorded and no other than temporary impairments recognized as of December 31, 2022.
In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of our investments as of December 31, 2022:

Unrealized losses on our investments have not been recorded into income as we do not intend to sell nor is it more likely than not that we will be required to sell these investments prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis. The decline in fair value of our debt securities is largely due to the rising interest rate environment driven by current market conditions that have resulted in higher credit spreads. The credit ratings associated with our debt securities are mostly unchanged, are highly rated, and the debtors continue to make timely principal and interest payments. As a result, there were no credit or non-credit impairment charges recorded through December 31, 2022

7. Business Combinations
All of the Company’s acquisitions of business have been accounted for under ASC 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets of the acquired companies reflect the fair values and have been included in the Company’s Condensed Financial Statements from their respective dates of acquisition.
The results of operations of Pulse Veterinary Technologies, LLC, Revo Squared LLC, and Assisi Animal Health, LLC have been included in the Company’s Condensed Financial Statements since the dates of acquisition on October 1, 2021, June 14, 2022, and July 15, 2022, respectively.
2022 Acquisitions
Asset Purchase Agreement with Assisi Animal Health LLC
On July 15, 2022, Zomedica Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary Zomedica Inc. entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Assisi Animal Health LLC (“Assisi”), its wholly owned subsidiary, AAH Holdings LLC, and certain of Assisi’s members pursuant to which Zomedica Inc. agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of Assisi. The Sellers are in the business of developing, manufacturing, marketing, distributing and selling animal health products which use targeted Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy to decrease pain and inflammation, accelerate healing, and reduce anxiety that include the Assisi Loop®, Assisi Loop Lounge®, Assisi DentaLoop® and Calmer Canine® product lines.
Zomedica Inc. paid Assisi a purchase price of $18,293 in cash, which was subject to adjustments based on, among other things, the value of Assisi’s inventory and prepaid expenses at the closing of the acquisition. A portion of the purchase price ($1,400) was deposited into a third-party escrow account to support AAH Holdings LLC and certain of Assisi’s members’ indemnification obligation under the Purchase Agreement, of which $500 was released and $900 will be distributed to Assisi on the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date, respectively, less the amount of prior or pending indemnification claims. The Company also issued to Assisi a ten-year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 22,000,000 of the Company’s common shares at a per share exercise price equal to $0.252. The warrants may be exercised on a cash or cashless basis, at the election of the warrant holder.
As a result of total consideration exceeding the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired, goodwill in the amount of $14,329 was recorded in connection with this acquisition, which will be deductible for US tax purposes. The goodwill largely results from our ability to market and sell their respective products and services through our established customer base.
The Company made a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for Assisi Animal Health LLC’s asset base based on its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. As the Company continues to obtain additional information about these assets and liabilities, including intangible asset appraisals, inventory valuation, and accrued expenses, and continues to integrate the newly acquired business, the Company will refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only items identified as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company will continue to make required adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to the completion of the acquisition period.

Asset Purchase Agreement with Revo Squared LLC
On June 14, 2022, Zomedica Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary Zomedica Inc. entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Revo Squared LLC (“Revo Squared”) and its majority member pursuant to which Zomedica Inc. agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of Revo Squared. Revo Squared, based in Marietta, Georgia, was in the business of developing, manufacturing, marketing, distributing, and selling diagnostic imaging products and services for use in animal health, including its SuperView™, Sonoview™ Color ultrasound, Sonoview Mini/Mini Plus ultrasound, and Microview™ product offerings.
On July 1, 2022, the parties consummated the acquisition. At the closing, Zomedica Inc. paid Revo Squared a base purchase price of $6,011 in cash, which was subject to adjustments based on the amount of Revo Squared’s working capital at the closing. On this date, $500 of the purchase price was deposited into a third-party escrow account for a period of 15 months to support Revo Squared’s indemnification obligation under the Purchase Agreement. The Company also issued to Revo Squared a ten-year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 of the Company’s common shares at a per share exercise price equal to $0.2201. The warrants may be exercised on a cash or cashless basis, at the election of the warrant holder.
In addition, Zomedica Inc. has agreed to pay Revo Squared aggregate earn-out payments of up to $4,000 based on the achievement of milestones related to future net sales from Revo Squared Products. One-time earn-out payments of $2,000 each will be payable upon net sales from Revo Squared Products exceeding $5,000 and $10,000 during any calendar year ending on or prior to December 31, 2027. The fair value of the earnout liability was adjusted from $2,000 to $1,500 at December 31, 2022. Fair value of the earnout was determined using Level 3 inputs.
As a result of total consideration exceeding the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired, goodwill in the amount of $6,528 was recorded in connection with this acquisition, which will be deductible for US tax purposes. The goodwill largely results from our ability to market and sell their respective products and services through our established customer base.
The Company made a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for Revo Squared’s asset base based on its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. As the Company continues to obtain additional information about these assets and liabilities, including intangible asset appraisals, inventory valuation, and accrued expenses, and continues to integrate the newly acquired business, the Company will refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only items identified as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company will continue to make required adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to the completion of the acquisition period.

The Company values warrants issued in equity placements using the Black Scholes model to allocate the fair value of the proceeds from equity financings using a relative fair value approach. Like other stock-based compensation, management uses judgment to determine the inputs to the Black-Scholes option pricing model including the expected life, and underlying share price volatility. Changes in these assumptions will impact the calculation of fair value and the value attributed to the warrants. The Company calculates volatility of warrants based on the historical price of the Company’s stock.

As of December 31, 2022, we had net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $28.132,456 million and noncapital loss carryforwards for Canada of approximately $37.346,384 million, which will begin to expire in fiscal year 20352035. We have evaluated the factors bearing upon the realizability of our deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of net operating loss carryforwards and noncapital loss carryforwards. WeIn 2021, we concluded that, due to the limitations under Section 382, our U.S. federal and state income tax net operating loss carryfowardscarryforwards, as well as R&D credit carryfowardscarryforwards, for the periods prior to February 11, 2021 have been limited to zero. We therefore have derecognized $21.0,013 million of this asset and reduced, reducing the carryforward of these amounts to $7.2 million. 11,443.
Zomedica entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement on October 1, 2021, to acquire 100% of the equity of Branford PVT Mid-Hold, LLC, of which PulseVet is a wholly owned subsidiary. This transaction was treated as a non-taxable stock acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposesIn prior years, there were no uncertain tax positions. In connection with the acquisition, deferred tax liabilities of $6.2 million of PulseVet, were recorded related to a step upas part of book basis in definite-lived intangible assets recorded in purchase accounting as described in Note 5, Business Combination.
In connection with the PulseVet transactionthe BPA transaction completed in 2021, it was assessed that an uncertain tax position exists related to withholding taxes on royalties for approximately $265,000. An uncertain tax liability and an indemnification asset were recorded. It is the Company''s policy to record interest within income taxinterest expense and penalties in selling, general, and administrative costs outside of income tax expense. non-operating income. Tax years subject to examination for US federal and state jurisdictions are generally years from 20182019 and forward. Tax years subject to examination in Canada are from years 20172018 and forward.
As a result of the acquisition, the deferred tax liability related to the transaction created a source of future taxable income in the US. The Company is in an overall net deferred tax liability position for the year ended December 31, 20212022. Management has assessed that the future taxable income resulting from the deferred tax liability position will result in partial utilization of the company''s US federal and state net operating loss carryforwards and has therefore released theconcluded a valuation allowance for U.S. tax assetsof $1,600 is currently necessary. Due to the uncertainty of realizing any tax benefits as of December 31, 20212022 due to historical losses, a full valuation allowance remains necessary to fully offset our Canadian deferred tax assets.

Agreement with Qorvo to take over new assay development and manufacturing of TRUFORMA product line through long-term agreement with Qorvo Biotechnologies, LLC
On January 17, 2023, Zomedica Corp., along with its U.S. subsidiary Zomedica Inc. ("ZomInc," and together with the Company, the "Zomedica Entities"), entered into three related agreements with Qorvo Biotechnologies, LLC ("Qorvo"). These agreements include a Transition and Support Agreement, a BAW Sensor Supply Agreement, and a Development and Manufacturing License Agreement.
The Qorvo Agreements represent a strategic restructuring of the Zomedica Entities' prior development and commercialization agreement with Qorvo for the Company's TRUFORMA® line of products. Under the Qorvo Agreements, ZomInc will take control of aspects of the TRUFORMA product line previously provided by Qorvo, including development of new assays and manufacturing both instruments and assay cartridges. This will position the Zomedica Entities to invest in accelerated development of new TRUFORMA assays and to begin manufacturing directly. ZomInc will provide up-front licensing and certain milestone payments, and an option payment if ZomInc exercises its option to extend exclusive rights for TRUFORMA in the veterinary health market in perpetuity.
