HEARTBEAM, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
HeartBeam, Inc. (“HeartBeam” or the “Company”) is a cardiac technology company focusing on developing and commercializing higher resolution ambulatory Electrocardiogram (“ECG”) solutions that enable the detection and monitoring of cardiac disease outside a healthcare facility setting. The Company’s ability to develop higher resolution ECG solutions is achieved through the development of the Company’s proprietary and patented Vector Electrocardiography (“VECG”) technology platform. HeartBeam’s VECG is capable of developing three-dimensional (3D) representations of cardiac electrical activity by displaying the spatial locations of ECG waveforms that demonstrated in early studies to deliver diagnostic capability equal or superior to traditional hospital-based ECG systems.

The Company has validated this technology and is seeking U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) clearance of its initial telehealth products. The Company filed a 510(k) submission in 2023 for its initial product, a patient-held VECG device, which is planned, with a second submission, to become an ambulatory device, carried by patients, which can synthesize a 12L ECG for physician review.

The Company was incorporated in 2015 as a Delaware corporation. The Company’s operations are based in Santa Clara, California and operates as one segment.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of early stage medical device companies, including dependence on key individuals and products, the inherent uncertainties with regulatory approvals, the difficulties inherent in the development of a commercial market, the potential need to obtain additional capital, competition from larger companies, other technology companies and other technologies.

The Company has incurred losses each year since inception and has experienced negative cash flows from operations in each year since inception. As of June 30, 2024 the Company has a cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $9.2 million. Based on its current business plan assumptions and expected cash burn rate, the Company believes that the existing cash is insufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

On May 2, 2024, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (“PV Sales Agreement”) with Public Ventures, LLC, as sales agent (“Public Ventures” or “Agent”), pursuant to which the Company may sell up to an aggregate of approximately $17 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. There were 50,000 shares issued under the At The Market (“ATM”) during the three months ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, there was approximately $16.9 million available for issuance under the ATM.

The Company’s continued operations will depend on its ability to raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships until FDA clearance is obtained for the Company’s initial telehealth product and sufficient revenue can be generated to achieve positive cash flow from operations. The Company expects no material commercial revenue in 2024. Management can provide no assurance that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, which would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and in conformity with the instructions on Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

Table of contents
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results of operations for the periods presented. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period. The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 20, 2024 (“2023 Annual Report”).

CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash deposits. The Company maintains its cash in institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and has cash balances in accounts which exceed the federally insured limits as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company has made a deposit to the bank for their credit cards in the amount of $55,000 and is classified as restricted cash included in other assets as of June 30, 2024.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based on amounts that differ from those estimates.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment, net, to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. As of June 30, 2024, property and equipment, net represents construction-in-progress of $370,000 related to tooling development that has not been placed into service. Construction-in-progress amounts are not subject to depreciation as such assets are not yet available for their intended use.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net loss per share excludes the effect of dilution and is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options and warrants to the extent dilutive. Basic net loss per share was the same as diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 as the inclusion of all potential common shares outstanding would have an anti-dilutive effect.

In accordance with ASC 260-10-45-13, exercisable penny options are included in the calculation of weighted average basic and diluted earnings per share. As of June 30, 2024, 182,169 penny options have been included in the calculation of weighted average basic and diluted earnings per share.

The following is a summary of awards outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, which are not included in the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following management’s discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting our financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. The discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed unaudited financial statements and the notes presented herein included in this Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and the other information set forth in the 2023 Form 10-K. When used, the words “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect” and the like, and/or future tense or conditional constructions (“will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” etc.), or similar expressions, identify certain of these forward-looking statements. In addition to historical information, the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, those set forth below under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere herein, and those identified under Part I, Item 1A of our 2023 Form 10-K. Our actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed herein and any other periodic reports filed and to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview

We are a medical technology company focused on transforming cardiac care through the power of personalized insights. Our aim is to deliver innovative, higher resolution ambulatory cardiac monitoring solutions that can be used by patients anywhere to enable the detection and monitoring of cardiac disease outside of a healthcare facility. Our ability to develop higher resolution Electrocardiogram (“ECG”) solutions is achieved through the development of our proprietary and patented Vector Electrocardiography (“VECG”) technology platform. Our VECG technology is capable of capturing 3D vector signals of the heart’s electrical activity and synthesizing a 12-Lead (“12L”) ECG from these signals. In early studies, our approach demonstrated equal or superior diagnostic capability than traditional hospital-based 12L ECG systems.

Our Products (“Product” or “Products”) require FDA clearance and have not been cleared for marketing.

We believe our Products and services will benefit many stakeholders, including patients, healthcare providers, and healthcare payors. We are developing our telehealth Product, (“HeartBeam AIMIGo™” or “AIMIGo™”), to address the rapidly growing field of ambulatory cardiac health monitoring. HeartBeam AIMIGo is comprised of a credit card sized electrocardiogram device, a patient application, a physician portal, and powerful cloud-based algorithms. We believe that we are uniquely positioned to play a central role in ambulatory cardiac monitoring including high-risk Coronary Artery Disease (“CAD”) patients, because the initial studies have shown that our ischemia detection system may be more accurate than existing ambulatory monitoring solutions. CAD patients are at increased risk for a heart attack or Myocardial Infarction (“MI”).

To date, we have developed a working prototype for HeartBeam AIMIGo and have filed a 510(k) submission with the FDA. This submission is for the initial Product, a device which is a 3 lead (3L) X, Y, Z vector VECG. We are in the substantive review phase of answering questions posed by the FDA on this submission. We have clarified the information requested in meetings with FDA representatives and are finalizing our official responses. During the second quarter of 2024 we received additional questions from FDA, have provided answers and additional data, and are engaged in productive discussions to finalize the clearance. If cleared as anticipated, we believe this will be the first patient-held VECG device to be cleared by the FDA and this will be a major milestone for the company.

Following the FDA clearance of the AIMIGo 3L device, we plan to file a submission for the software algorithms that synthesize a 12L ECG from the HeartBeam AIMIGo device. We have held two Pre-submission meetings with FDA on this 12L synthesis submission. These meetings have been focused primarily on the performance goals of our clinical study that is designed to demonstrate the similarity between our synthesized 12L signal and the output of a standard 12L ECG. Based on feedback from FDA and our clinical experts, we have designed our clinical study, “Clinical Validation of AIMIGo 12 Lead ECG Synthesis Software for Arrhythmia Detection: A Prospective Multicenter Pivotal Study,” (the “VALID-ECG Study”).

On June 20, 2024, we completed patient enrollment in the VALID-ECG study. The VALID-ECG study is a prospective single-arm multicenter trial designed with the goal to validate the AIMIGo 12L ECG Synthesis Software by comparing its results with those of a standard FDA-cleared 12L ECG using both quantitative and qualitative assessment methodologies. We enrolled a total of 198 patients presenting to an outpatient cardiology clinic or arrhythmia center for symptoms suggestive of cardiac arrhythmia or for routine checkup of previously diagnosed arrhythmia. The study included five sites. The primary objective is to demonstrate the equivalence of ECG waveforms between AIMIGo Synthesized 12L ECG and Standard 12L ECG, recorded simultaneously in each subject, by assessing intervals and amplitudes.

Table of contents

We are currently analyzing the data and working on the other components of the second 510(k) application. We anticipate submitting this 510(k) application in the second half of 2024. The result of these two 510(k) submissions, when cleared by the FDA as anticipated, will be an ambulatory device, carried by patients, which can synthesize a 12L ECG for physician review.

We continue to anticipate that our limited launch of AIMIGo will occur by the end of 2024. This limited launch, focused on the AIMIGo 3L system, will provide the company with valuable feedback on the user experience and functionality of the system in a real world setting. We do not anticipate that the AIMIGo 3L system clearance will generate significant revenue before the 12L clearance.

We also have an active AI program underway. Our AI team includes 5 PhDs. The leadership has deep AI expertise, including prior positions at Apple, Microsoft and Google. We have acquired approximately one million 12L ECGs from various sources, a key element in our fast-paced AI development efforts.

We have developed initial deep learning algorithms, focused on the ability to detect various cardiac arrhythmias. HeartBeam has had data on its deep learning algorithm accepted and presented at two prestigious Electrophysiology conferences. Data were presented at the European Heart Rhythm Association in Berlin, Germany in April 2024 and at the Heart Rhythm Society, in Boston MA in May 2024. We believe that, when combined with our Products, HeartBeam’s AI will provide additional value to patients and physicians in several ways, including:

Providing automated classification of cardiac conditions, including common arrhythmias,
The potential to further enhance user experience and simplify the onboarding process, and
In the longer run, we believe that applying deep learning algorithms on top of the rich VECG data, especially with the longitudinal dataset from patients taking repeated readings, may result in unsurpassed predictive and diagnostic capabilities.

The custom software and hardware of our Products are classified as Class II medical devices by the FDA, running on an FDA registered Class I software platform. Premarket review and clearance by the FDA for Class II devices is generally accomplished through the 510(k) premarket notification process or De Novo process. Given the proposed intended use of our device, the 510(k) submission is expected to require clinical data to support FDA clearance.

A landmark clinical study on the HeartBeam technology was published in the August 2023 issue of the journal JACC: Advances. The publication, “Coronary Artery Occlusion Detection Using 3-Lead ECG System Suitable for Credit Card-Size Personal Device Integration” demonstrated that HeartBeam’s VECG technology detects the presence of a coronary occlusion, the cause of heart attacks, with the same accuracy as a standard 12L ECG.

The study showed that the automated analysis of the VECG and 12L ECG signals had similar performance in determining whether a coronary artery was occluded. Also in the study, the human interpretation of the 12L ECGs had significant intra- and inter-observer variability, which does not occur with automated readings. The study also showed that the presence of the “normal baseline” recording, a novel feature that is integral to HeartBeam’s VECG technology, dramatically improved the accuracy of interpretation, increasing the Area Under the Curve (“AUC”), a standard measure of diagnostic performance, from 0.72 to 0.95. This is particularly important since physicians who are analyzing 12L ECGs often do not have access to a normal baseline, implying that the HeartBeam system could outperform this approach.

The study was a collaboration of Harvard Medical School Faculty at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts, and Clinical Center of Serbia in Belgrade.

As of June 30, 2024, we had 15 employees. We intend to hire or engage additional full-time professionals, employees, and / or consultants in alignment with our growth strategy. Although the market is highly competitive for attracting and retaining highly qualified professionals in our industry, we continue our endeavor to find such candidates for our Company. Our management team and additional personnel that we may hire in the future will be primarily responsible for executing and implementing growth opportunities, making tactical decisions related to our strategy and pursuing opportunities to invest in new technologies through strategic partnerships and acquisitions.

Summary of Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three and six months ended June 30, 2023:

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by approximately $0.4 million or 23% during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in G&A expense is primarily related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense amounting to $0.1 million associated with additional awards granted since June 30, 2023, higher consultants costs of $0.3 million primarily offset by lower legal costs in this quarter compared to the prior period.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by approximately $0.3 million or 7% during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in G&A expense is primarily related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense amounting to $0.7 million associated with additional awards granted since June 30, 2023, higher consulting costs of $0.3 million related to finance consultants, primarily offset by decrease in payroll cost of $0.5 million related to lower costs associated with transitioning our commercial team, decrease in lower investor relation costs, and legal costs incurred in this period compared to the prior period.

Research and development expenses (“R&D”) expenses increased by approximately $1.4 million or 92% during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in R&D expense is primarily related to increase in headcount of $0.4 million, increase of clinical and AI related costs of $0.7 million, increase in consulting spend of $0.3 million offset by decrease in product development consulting cost of $0.4 million primarily driven by completion of milestone projects in prior period.

Research and development expenses (“R&D”) expenses increased by approximately $2.1 million or 67% during the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in R&D expense is primarily related to increase in headcount of $0.9 million and non-cash stock-based compensation expense amounting to $0.4 million associated with additional awards granted since June 30, 2023, increase of clinical and AI related costs of $1.2 million, increase in consulting spend of $0.2 million offset by decrease in product development consulting cost of $0.9 million primarily driven by completion of milestone projects in prior period.

Other income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is related to interest earned on our cash balances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash requirements are and will continue to be, dependent upon a variety of factors. We expect to continue devoting significant capital resources to R&D and go-to-market strategies.

We have incurred losses each year since inception and has experienced negative cash flows from operations in each year since inception. As of June 30, 2024, we have cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $9.2 million. Based on our current business plan assumptions and expected cash burn rate, we believe that the existing cash is insufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our continued operations will depend on the ability to raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships until sufficient revenue can be generated to achieve positive cash flow from operations. We expect no material commercial revenue in 2024 nor can we provide assurance that a financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms.

As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately $9.2 million in cash, a decrease of $7.0 million from $16.2 million as of December 31, 2023.

Our cash is as follows (in thousands):

Operating Activities:

Net cash used in our operating activities of $7.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024, is primarily due to our net loss of $9.5 million less $2.2 million in non-cash expenses and $0.3 million of net changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash used by our operating activities of $7.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, is primarily due to our net loss of $7.3 million less $1.1 million in non-cash expenses, offset by $0.9 million of net changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Investing Activities:

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $0.1 million, is from the purchase of property and equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023, of $3.9 million, is from the purchase of short-term investments.

Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, of $0.1 million is primarily from net proceeds from sale of equity, net of issuance costs.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023, of $24.9 million, is primarily from net proceeds of $23.2 million from the issuance of common stock under the Placement Agency Agreement, $1.1 million net proceeds from the issuance of common stock under a registered direct offering and $0.5 million from the issuance of common stock under the SPA.

Critical Accounting Estimates

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates from the information provided in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” included in our 2023 Annual Report except as covered below:

Stock-based Compensation

The compensation cost for all stock-based awards is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock options and fair value on the date of grant for non-vested restricted stock, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity award). Determining the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires significant estimates and judgments. Management has determined the fair value and vesting period of stock-based compensation to be a critical accounting estimate due to certain options containing performance-based vesting condition.

Research and Development: Clinical and Manufacturing Accruals

We record accruals for estimated costs of research, preclinical studies and clinical trials, and manufacturing development, which are a significant component of research and development expenses. A substantial portion of our ongoing research and development activities are conducted by one CRO. Our contract with this CRO include pass-through fees such as regulatory expenses, investigator fees, travel costs and other miscellaneous costs. We accrue the costs incurred under agreements with CRO based on estimates of actual work completed in accordance with the CRO agreement. We determine the estimated costs based on actual services performed by the CRO and clinical sites as at each period end. As actual costs become known, we adjust our accruals. Although we do not expect our estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred, our understanding of the status and timing of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and could result in our reporting amounts that are too high or too low in any particular period.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is collected, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the SEC. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The material weaknesses previously identified but not yet remediated include (i) lack of proper approval processes and review processes and documentation for such reviews, (ii) insufficient number of staff to maintain optimal segregation of duties and levels of oversight, and (iii) lack of formal risk assessment under COSO framework. As of June 30, 2024, based on evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described above, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive and accounting officer) have concluded that the condensed unaudited financial statements, and other financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly presents in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this quarterly report.

Since the third quarter of 2023, we have undertaken specific remediation actions to address the material weaknesses in our financial reporting specifically remediating the material weakness as identified in the 2023 Form 10-K related to documentation of policies and procedures, and insufficient GAAP experience regarding complex transactions and reporting. These remediation actions included hiring a Controller in July 2023, who has extensive experience in developing and implementing internal controls and executing plans to remediate control deficiencies. We are establishing more robust

processes related to the review of complex accounting transactions, the preparation of account reconciliations and the review of journal entries. We will continue to assess the remaining weaknesses as we continue to implement and refine control policies and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control

Although, we have hired personnel with sufficient GAAP experience to address the material weaknesses, there has been no change in our internal control procedures over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
