NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1—DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company

BIOLASE, Inc. (“BIOLASE” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a leading provider of advanced laser systems for the dental industry. The Company develops, manufactures, markets, and sells laser systems that provide significant benefits for dental practitioners and their patients. The Company’s proprietary systems allow dentists, periodontists, endodontists, pediatric dentists, oral surgeons, and other dental specialists to perform a broad range of minimally invasive dental procedures, including cosmetic, restorative, and complex surgical applications. The Company’s laser systems are designed to provide clinically superior results for many types of dental procedures compared to those achieved with drills, scalpels, and other conventional instruments. Potential patient benefits include less pain, fewer shots, faster healing, decreased fear and anxiety, and fewer appointments. Potential practitioner benefits include improved patient care and the ability to perform a higher volume and wider variety of procedures and generate more patient referrals.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BIOLASE and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared on a basis consistent with the December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and include all material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and the elimination of all material intercompany transactions and balances, necessary to fairly present the information set forth therein. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all the footnotes, presentations, and disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements.

The unaudited consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, included in BIOLASE’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 28, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

Liquidity and Management’s Plans

The Company incurred losses from operations and used cash in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. The Company’s recurring losses, level of cash used in operations, and potential need for additional capital, along with uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of approximately $13.0 million. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity as of March 31, 2023 consisted of approximately $6.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.2 million of net accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had working capital of approximately $11.2 million, $4.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.8 million of net accounts receivable. The increase in cash and cash equivalents since December 31, 2022 was primarily due to $8.5 million net proceeds from the January 2023 public offering. This increase was partially offset by a net loss of $5.8 million and $0.6 million in capital expenditures.

On January 9, 2023, BIOLASE completed a public offering, pursuant to which BIOLASE agreed to issue, in a registered direct offering, 17,167,855 shares of BIOLASE common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 11,403,571 shares of BIOLASE common stock (the "January 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants") with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The combined purchase price for one share of common stock was determined to be $0.35, and the purchase price for one January 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant was determined to be $0.34. BIOLASE received aggregate gross proceeds from the transactions of approximately $9.9 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other transaction expenses paid by BIOLASE.

Additional capital requirements may depend on many factors, including, among other things, the rate at which the Company’s business grows, demands for working capital, manufacturing capacity, and any acquisitions that the Company may pursue. The Company expects that it will be required to raise capital through either equity or debt offerings. The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to successfully enter into any such equity or debt financings in the future or that the required capital would be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that any such financing activity would not be dilutive to its stockholders.

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include allowances on accounts receivable, inventory, and deferred taxes, as well as estimates for accrued warranty expenses, goodwill and the ability of goodwill to be realized, revenue deferrals, effects of stock-based compensation and warrants, contingent liabilities, and the provision or benefit for income taxes. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may differ materially from those estimates.

Critical Accounting Policies

Information with respect to the Company’s critical accounting policies, which management believes could have the most significant effect on the Company’s reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management, is discussed in the Company’s 2022 audited financial statements included in the 2022 Form 10-K. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2023 in the Company’s critical accounting policies from those disclosed in the Company’s 2022 audited financial statements included in the 2022 Form 10-K.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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 in the principal market (or, if none exists, the most advantageous market) for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (referred to as the “exit price”). The fair value is based on assumptions that market participants would use, including a consideration of non-performance risk. Under the accounting guidance for fair value hierarchy, there are three levels of measurement inputs. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable due to little or no corroborating market data.

The Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and the SWK Loan (as defined below) as discussed in Note 9 – Debt, approximate fair value because of the relative short maturity of these items and the market interest rates the Company could obtain.

Concentration of Credit Risk, Interest Rate Risk and Foreign Currency Exchange Rate

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash with established commercial banks. At times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. To minimize the risk associated with trade accounts receivable, management performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition and maintains relationships with the Company’s customers that allow management to monitor current changes in business operations so the Company can respond as needed. The Company does not, generally, require customers to provide collateral before it sells them its products. However, the Company has required certain distributors to make prepayments for significant purchases of its products.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars, including sales to international distributors. Only a small portion of its revenue and expenses is denominated in foreign currencies, principally the Euro and Indian Rupee. The Company’s foreign currency expenditures primarily consist of the cost of maintaining offices, consulting services, and employee-related costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, the Company did not enter into any hedging contracts. Future fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar may affect the price competitiveness of the Company’s products outside the U.S.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined not to be applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

8


 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The standard’s main goal is to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope and to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables, loans, and other financial instruments. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2023, and the adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3—REVENUE RECOGNITION

Contracts with Customers

Revenue for sales of products and services is derived from contracts with customers. The products and services promised in customer contracts include delivery of laser systems, imaging systems, and consumables as well as certain ancillary services such as training and extended warranties. Contracts with each customer generally state the terms of the sale, including the description, quantity and price of each product or service. Payment terms are stated in the contract and vary according to the arrangement. Because the customer typically agrees to a stated rate and price in the contract that does not vary over the life of the contract, the Company’s contracts do not contain variable consideration. The Company establishes a provision for estimated warranty expense.

Performance Obligations

At contract inception, the Company assesses the products and services promised in its contracts with customers. The Company then identifies performance obligations to transfer distinct products or services to the customers. In order to identify performance obligations, the Company considers all of the products or services promised in contracts regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices.

Revenue from products and services transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for 89% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The majority of the Company’s revenue recognized at a point in time is for the sale of laser systems and consumables. Revenue from these contracts is recognized when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product which generally coincides with title transfer during the shipping process.

Revenue from services transferred to customers over time accounted for 11% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The majority of the Company’s revenue that is recognized over time relates to product training and extended warranties. Deferred revenue attributable to undelivered elements, which primarily consists of product training, totaled approximately $0.4 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Transaction Price Allocation

The transaction price for a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, each performance obligation is satisfied. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in a contract. The primary method used to estimate standalone selling price is the observable price when the good or service is sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers.

Significant Judgments

Revenue is recorded for extended warranties over time as the customer benefits from the warranty coverage. This revenue will be recognized equally throughout the contract period as the customer receives benefits from the Company's promise to provide such services. Revenue is recorded for product training as the customer attends a training program or upon the expiration of the obligation, which is generally after nine months.

The Company also has contracts that include both the product sales and product training as performance obligations. In those cases, the Company records revenue for product sales at the point in time when the product has been shipped. The customer obtains control of the product when it is shipped, as all shipments are made FOB shipping point, and after the customer selects its shipping

9


 

method and pays all shipping costs and insurance. The Company has concluded that control is transferred to the customer upon shipment.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an analysis of customer accounts and the Company’s historical experience with accounts receivable write-offs.

Contract Liabilities

The Company performs its obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and/or services in exchange for consideration from the customer. The Company typically invoices its customers as soon as control of an asset is transferred and a receivable for the Company is established. The Company, however, recognizes a contract liability when a customer prepays for goods and/or services, and the Company has not transferred control of the goods and/or services. The opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract liabilities are as follows (in thousands):

For shipments to distributors, the distributor bears the shipping and freight costs, including insurance, tariffs and other import/export costs.

 

NOTE 4—REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK AND STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

BIOLASE's board of directors (the "Board"), without further stockholder authorization, may authorize the issuance from time to time of up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock.

Preferred Stock

Series G Preferred Stock

On March 1, 2022, the Board declared a dividend of one one-thousandth of a share of Series G Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Series G Preferred Stock"), for each share of BIOLASE common stock outstanding as of close of market on March 25, 2022 (as calculated on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis). The certificate of designation for the Series G Preferred Stock provided that all shares of Series G Preferred Stock not present in person or by proxy at the 2022 Annual Meeting immediately prior to the opening of the polls at the 2022 Annual Meeting would be automatically redeemed (the “Initial Redemption”) and that any outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock that have not been redeemed pursuant to the Initial Redemption would be redeemed in whole, but not in part, (i) if and when ordered by the Board or (ii) automatically upon the effectiveness of the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation effecting the Reverse Stock Split that was subject to the vote at the 2022 Annual Meeting (the “Subsequent Redemption”). On April 28, 2022, both the Initial Redemption and the Subsequent Redemption occurred. As a result, no shares of Series G Preferred Stock remain outstanding. On June 6, 2022, the Series G Preferred Stock was eliminated.

Series F Convertible Preferred Stock

On July 23, 2020, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of 18,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per shares ("Series F Preferred Stock"), and 45,000,000 warrants (the “July 2020 Warrants”), exercisable for 1,800,000 shares of BIOLASE common stock, through a registered rights offering the Company completed on July 22, 2020 (the “Rights Offering”). Each share of Series F Preferred Stock was convertible at the Company’s option at any time on or after July 22, 2021 or at the option of the holder at any time, into the number of shares of BIOLASE common stock determined by dividing the $1,000 stated value per share of the Series F Preferred Stock by a conversion price of $10.00 per share. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock was convertible into 100 shares of common stock, and each July 2020 Warrant entitled the holder thereof to purchase one twenty-fifth share BIOLASE common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the $18.0 million gross proceeds from the Rights Offering were allocated to the Series F Preferred Stock and the July 2020 Warrants in the amount of $2.7 million and $15.3 million, respectively. The allocation was based on the fair value of the July 2020 Warrants of $15.3 million as of the commitment date, with the residual proceeds of $2.7 million allocated to the Series F Preferred Stock.

The Series F Preferred Stock contained a beneficial conversion feature which resulted in a deemed dividend to preferred stockholders of approximately $2.7 million, upon immediate accretion. Additionally, the July 2020 Warrants were recognized as a discount to the Series F Preferred Stock. Upon conversion, including the conversion described below, this discount was accreted and also recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred stockholders in the amount of $0.2 million, $0.5 million and $14.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

The remaining shares of Series F Preferred Stock were converted into shares of BIOLASE common stock in the first quarter of 2022 with none outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. On March 3, 2022, the Series F Preferred Stock was eliminated.

Stock-Based Compensation

2002 Stock Incentive Plan

The 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended effective as of May 26, 2004, November 15, 2005, May 16, 2007, May 5, 2011, June 6, 2013, October 30, 2014, April 27, 2015, and May 6, 2017, the “2002 Plan”) was replaced by the 2018 Plan (as defined below) with respect to future equity awards. Persons eligible to receive awards under the 2002 Plan included officers, employees, directors of the Company, and consultants to the Company. As of March 31, 2023, a total of 124,400 shares have been authorized for issuance under the 2002 Plan, of which approximately 41,000 shares of BIOLASE common stock have been issued pursuant to options that were exercised and restricted stock units ("RSUs") that were vested, approximately 22,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for options that are outstanding, and no shares of common stock remain available for future grants.

2018 Stock Incentive Plan

At the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended effective as of September 21, 2018, May 15, 2019, May 13, 2020, and June 11, 2021, the “2018 Plan”). The purposes of the 2018 Plan are (i) to align the interests of the Company’s stockholders and recipients of awards under the 2018 Plan by increasing the proprietary interest of such recipients in the Company’s growth and success; (ii) to advance the interests of the Company by attracting and retaining non-employee directors, officers, other employees, consultants, independent contractors, and agents; and (iii) to motivate such persons to act in the long-term best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Under the terms of the 2018 Plan, approximately 0.1 million shares of BIOLASE common stock are available for issuance as of March 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2023, a total of 1.5 million shares of common stock have been authorized for issuance under the 2018 Plan, of which approximately 1.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options or stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), and/or settlement of unvested RSUs or phantom awards under the 2018 Plan.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had approximately $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements. The Company expects that expense to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.9 years.

As of March 31, 2023 approximately $0.2 million of the total stock compensation cost recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 related to performance-based awards was recognized as a liability, with none as of March 31, 2022.

Warrants

The Company issues warrants to acquire shares of BIOLASE common stock as approved by the Board.

January 2023 Public Offering

On January 9, 2023, BIOLASE completed a public offering, pursuant to which BIOLASE agreed to issue, in a registered direct offering, 17,167,855 shares of BIOLASE common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 11,403,571 shares of BIOLASE common stock with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The purchase price for one share of common stock was determined to be $0.35, and the purchase price for one January 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant was determined to be $0.34. BIOLASE received aggregate gross proceeds from the transactions of approximately $9.9 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other transaction expenses paid by BIOLASE.

Based on the terms and conditions of the January 2023 public offering, the Company determined that equity classification was appropriate for the pre-funded warrants and recognized the net proceeds from the issuance of common stock and pre-funded warrants in excess of par of $8.5 million in additional paid-in capital.

June 2022 Direct Offering and Private Placement

On June 27, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Purchasers (as defined therein), (i) in a registered direct offering, 678,745 shares of BIOLASE common stock, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 726,660 shares of BIOLASE common stock (the “June 2022 Pre-Funded Warrants”) with an exercise price of $0.001 per share, and (ii) in a concurrent private placement, warrants to purchase 1,405,405 shares of BIOLASE common stock (each a "Common Warrant" and together with the June 2022 Pre-Funded Warrants, the “June 2022 Warrants”). The combined purchase price for one share of BIOLASE common stock and one Common Warrant was $4.625, and the combined purchase price for one June 2022 Pre-Funded Warrant and one Common Warrant was $4.624. In the offering and concurrent private placement, the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $6.5 million before deducting fees to the placement agent and other transaction expenses.

Based on the terms and conditions of the June 2022 Warrants, the Company determined that equity classification was appropriate and recognized the net proceeds in excess of par of $5.6 million in additional paid-in capital.

Phantom Awards and Stock Appreciation Rights

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued approximately 31,000 phantom RSUs in lieu of stock-settled RSUs historically granted for leadership bonuses and non-employee director service. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company issued approximately 402,000 phantom RSUs. The phantom RSUs have either time-based or performance-based vesting conditions and could be settled in cash in 2024 with the Company's option to settle the award in BIOLASE common stock at the sole discretion of the Board. These phantom RSUs are included as a component of long-term liability on the consolidated balance sheet and are not considered stock-based compensation due to the cash-settlement feature of the award and limitation on the number of remaining shares authorized for issuance as of March 31, 2023. If at any time the determination is made to settle the phantom RSUs in BIOLASE common stock, the awards will be included as a component of additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet. The expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $0.1 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, $0.2 million was included in additional paid-in-capital and $0.3 million was included in short-term liabilities on the

14


 

consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2022, $0.1 million was included in additional paid-in-capital and $0.3 million was included in long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company issued approximately 39,000 SARs in lieu of stock-settled RSUs historically granted for non-employee director service. Upon exercise, the SARs could be settled in cash with the Company's option to settle in BIOLASE common stock at the sole discretion of the Board. These SARS were included in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and not considered stock-based compensation due to the cash-settlement feature of the award and limitation on the number of remaining shares authorized for issuance. In 2022, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the SARs were reclassed to equity and included as a component of additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheet in the amount of $0.5 million. These SARs were fully vested in 2022. No expense was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and the expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $0.2 million.

Net Loss Per Share – Basic and Diluted

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of BIOLASE common stock outstanding for the period. In computing diluted net loss per share, the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Net income (loss) is adjusted for any deemed dividends to preferred stockholders to compute net income attributable to common stockholders. The January 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants were included in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the period ended March 31, 2023 as the underlying warrant shares are issuable for little or no cash consideration.

Outstanding stock options, RSUs, and warrants to purchase approximately 2.7 million and 0.9 million shares were not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share amounts for the periods ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 7—INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL

The Company conducted its annual impairment test of goodwill as of September 30, 2022 and determined that there was no impairment. The Company also tests its intangible assets and goodwill between the annual impairment tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Company or its assets below their carrying amounts. For intangible assets subject to amortization, the Company performs its impairment test when indicators, such as reductions in demand or significant economic slowdowns, are present. During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022, due to the sustained decrease in the stock price of BIOLASE common stock decreasing the implied fair value of the business, the Company performed a quantitative assessment of impairment over goodwill and determined that there was no impairment to our goodwill. Goodwill was valued using an equally weighted income approach and market approach. The unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of the goodwill, which is categorized as a Level 3 instrument, are the discount rate of 15.7% and various revenue growth rates utilized in the financial forecast of future cash flows.

Due to the further decrease in the stock price of BIOLASE common stock as of March 31, 2023 decreasing the implied fair value of the business, the Company performed an additional quantitative assessment of impairment over goodwill and determined that there was no impairment to our goodwill as of March 31, 2023. Goodwill was valued using an equally weighted income approach and market approach. The unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of the goodwill, which is categorized as a Level 3 instrument, are the discount rate of 25.0% and various revenue growth rates utilized in the financial forecast of future cash flows.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had goodwill of $2.9 million. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all intangible assets have been fully amortized and no amortization expense was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Term Loan

On November 9, 2018, the Company entered into a five-year secured Credit Agreement (as amended, restated, and supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) with SWK Funding LLC (“SWK”), pursuant to which the Company has borrowed $14.3 million (“SWK Loan”) as of March 31, 2023. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement and subsequent amendments as discussed in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K, repayment of the SWK Loan is interest-only for the first two years, paid quarterly with the option to extend the interest-only period. Principal repayments were to begin in the first quarter of 2021. On June 30, 2022 the Company entered into the ninth amendment to the Credit Agreement (the "Ninth Amendment"), which extended the interest-only period by two quarters from May 2023 to November 2023. On December 30, 2022, the Company entered into the tenth amendment to the Credit Agreement, which lowered the required minimum consolidated unencumbered liquid assets from $3 million to $2.5 million and removed the conditional minimum last twelve months aggregate revenue and EBITDA as of the end of the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022. In connection with the Ninth Amendment, the Company prepaid $1.0 million of the outstanding loan balance. Principal repayments begin in November 2023 and will be approximately $0.7 million quarterly until the SWK Loan matures in May 2025. The loan bears interest of 9% plus LIBOR with a floor of 1.25% or another index that approximates LIBOR as close as possible if and when LIBOR no longer exists.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the debt covenants of the Credit Agreement.

EIDL Loan

On May 22, 2020, the Company executed the standard loan documents required for securing a loan (the “EIDL Loan”) from the Small Business Administration (the "SBA") under its Economic Injury Disaster Loan assistance program in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business. The principal amount of the EIDL Loan is $150,000, with the proceeds to be used for working capital purposes. Interest on the EIDL Loan accrues at the rate of 3.75% per annum, and installment payments, including principal and interest, are due monthly beginning in July 2021 and are payable through July 2050. In April 2021, the SBA announced

17


 

that it was extending the first payment due date for all loans until 2022, or 24 months from the loan execution date. In March 2022, the SBA announced that it was extending the first payment due date for all loans an additional six months, or 30 months from the loan execution date. The Company began making payments on the EIDL Loan starting in November 2022. Fixed payments are first applied to any accrued interest.

NOTE 10—LEASES

The Company enters into operating leases primarily for real estate, office equipment, and fleet vehicles. Lease terms generally range from one to five years, and often include options to renew for one year. The Company leases its corporate headquarters pursuant to a lease that expires on December 31, 2025 and leases a manufacturing facility located in Corona, California, which expires on June 30, 2025. The Company also leases additional office space and certain office equipment under various operating lease arrangements.

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in money market investment accounts with established commercial banks. Such cash deposits periodically exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

No individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The Company currently purchases certain key components of its products from single suppliers. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers of these key components, management believes that other suppliers could provide similar key components on comparable terms. A change in suppliers, however, could cause delays in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Management evaluates the need to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based upon the amount of existing temporary differences, the period in which they are expected to be recovered, and expected levels of taxable income. A valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets is established when it is “more likely than not” that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based on the Company’s net losses in prior years, management has determined that a full valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets is appropriate.

Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties as a component of its income tax provision. With respect to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including related estimates of penalties and interest, the Company did not record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company does not expect any changes to its unrecognized tax benefit for the next 12 months that would materially impact its consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $1,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0.0%. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $17,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0.4%. The income tax provisions and benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were calculated using the discrete year-to-date method. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the existence of valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets and current liabilities resulting from the estimated state income tax liabilities and foreign tax liability.

NOTE 14—SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 4, 2023, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 for the issuance of Series H Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $50.00 and warrants to purchase one-half of one share of Series H Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The equity raise, which is subject to conditions including the SEC declaring the registration statement effective and market conditions, is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2023.

Overview

BIOLASE, Inc. (“BIOLASE” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a leading provider of advanced laser systems for the dental industry. We develop, manufacture, market, and sell laser systems that provide significant benefits for dental practitioners and their patients. Our proprietary systems allow dentists, periodontists, endodontists, pediatric dentists, oral surgeons, and other dental specialists to perform a broad range of minimally invasive dental procedures, including cosmetic, restorative, and complex surgical applications. Our laser systems are designed to provide clinically superior results for many types of dental procedures compared to those achieved with drills, scalpels, and other conventional instruments. Potential patient benefits include less pain, fewer shots, faster healing, decreased fear and anxiety, and fewer appointments. Potential practitioner benefits include improved patient care and the ability to perform a higher volume, and wider variety of procedures.

We offer two categories of laser system products: Waterlase (all-tissue) systems and diode (soft-tissue) systems. Our flagship brand, the Waterlase, uses a patented combination of water and laser energy and is FDA cleared for over 80 clinical indications to perform most procedures currently performed using drills, scalpels, and other traditional dental instruments for cutting soft and hard tissue. For example, Waterlase safely debrides implants without damaging or significantly affecting surface temperature and is an effective, safe solution for preserving sick implants. In addition, Waterlase disinfects root canals more efficiently than some traditional chemical methods. We offer our diode laser systems to perform soft tissue, pain therapy, and cosmetic procedures, including teeth

whitening. As of March 31, 2023, we maintained approximately 266 active and 25 pending United States and international patents, with the majority relating to our Waterlase technology. Our patent portfolio is regularly evaluated, and we strategically prioritize our core patents to ensure optimal Intellectual Property coverage while minimizing annual maintenance fees. From 1998 through December 31, 2022, we have sold over 45,500 laser systems in over 80 countries around the world, and we believe that Waterlase iPlus is the world’s best-selling all-tissue dental laser. Since 1998, we have been the global leading innovator, manufacturer, and marketer of dental laser systems.

We also manufacture and sell consumable products and accessories for our laser systems. Our Waterlase and diode systems use disposable laser tips of differing sizes and shapes depending on the procedure being performed. We also market flexible fibers and hand pieces that dental practitioners replace at some point after initially purchasing laser systems. For our Epic line of diode laser systems, we sell teeth whitening gel kits. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the sale of lasers accounted for approximately 60% of our total sales, and consumables, accessories, and services accounted for approximately 40% of our total sales.

We currently operate in a single reportable business segment. We had net revenues of $10.5 million and $10.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and we had net losses of $5.8 million and $4.8 million for the same periods, respectively. We had total assets of $41.9 million as of March 31, 2023 and $38.2 million as of December 31, 2022.

Business and Outlook

Our Waterlase systems precisely cut hard tissue, bone, and soft tissue with minimal or no damage to surrounding tissue and dental structures. Our diode systems, which include the Epic system, are designed to complement our Waterlase systems, and are used only in soft tissue procedures, pain therapy, hygiene, and cosmetic applications, including teeth whitening. The diode systems, together with our Waterlase systems, offer practitioners a broad product line with a range of features and price points.

We also manufacture and sell consumable products and accessories for our laser systems. Our Waterlase and diode systems use disposable laser tips of differing sizes and shapes depending on the procedure being performed. We also market flexible fibers and hand pieces that dental practitioners replace at some point after initially purchasing laser systems. For our Epic systems, we sell teeth whitening gel kits.

Due to the limitations associated with traditional and alternative dental instruments, we believe there is a large market opportunity for all-tissue dental laser systems that provide superior clinical outcomes, reduce the need to use anesthesia, help reduce trauma, pain, and discomfort associated with dental procedures, and increase patient acceptance for treatment protocols.

Our strategy is to increase awareness and demand for (i) our products among dental practitioners by educating dental practitioners and patients about the clinical benefits of our product suite and (ii) our laser systems among patients by educating patients about the clinical benefits of the Waterlase and diode systems. An important goal of ours is to increase consumables revenue by selling more single-use accessories used by dental practitioners when performing procedures using our dental laser systems. In the short term, we are striving for operating excellence through lean enterprise initiatives, with a specific focus on our sales strategy and cash flow management, coupled with optimizing our engineering capabilities to develop innovative new products.

We also seek to create value through innovation and leveraging existing technologies into adjacent medical applications. We plan to expand our product line and clinical applications by developing enhancements and transformational innovations, including new clinical solutions for dental applications and for other adjacent medical applications. In particular, we believe that our existing technologies can provide significant improvements over existing standards of care in fields including ophthalmology, otolaryngology, orthopedics, podiatry, pain management, aesthetics/dermatology, veterinary, and consumer products. We plan to continue to explore potential collaborations to apply our proprietary laser technologies with expanded FDA-cleared indications to other medical applications in the future.

The Company experienced revenue growth of 3% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The Company is currently forecasting revenue for fiscal year 2023 to be significantly above fiscal year 2022, as the Company's strategy described above continues to generate sales to new customers and additional consumable sales to existing customers.

To educate providers and increase patient access to our products, over the past couple of years, we have formed specialist training programs focused on expanding awareness of the benefits of our dental lasers among dental specialists. These programs provide clinicians with an immersive training experience through peer-led learning and best practice sharing to help ensure appropriate use of Waterlase technology in clinical practices. In the fourth quarter of 2021, we launched the Epic Hygiene Academy which seeks to bring together leaders in the dental hygiene profession to provide improved continuing education in delivering superior patient care through laser technology.

23


 

In 2021, we designed, developed, received FDA clearance for and began production of a laser using our proprietary Er,Cr:YSGG laser technology in partnership with EdgeEndo, a leading endodontic company. The EdgePro is a state-of-the-art microfluidic irrigation device designed to clean and disinfect root canals. The partnership with EdgeEndo is our first exclusive OEM agreement.

Recent Developments

On January 9, 2023, BIOLASE completed a public offering, pursuant to which BIOLASE agreed to issue, in a registered direct offering, 17,167,855 shares of BIOLASE common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 11,403,571 shares of BIOLASE common stock with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The purchase price for one share of common stock was determined to be $0.35, and the purchase price for one January 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant was determined to be $0.34. BIOLASE received aggregate gross proceeds from the transactions of approximately $9.9 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other transaction expenses paid by BIOLASE.

Critical Accounting Policies

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses reported during the period. Information with respect to our critical accounting policies that we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2023 in our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in Item 7 of the 2022 Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with GAAP, we provide certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, are indicative of our ongoing core performance.

Management believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments, and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Form 10-Q have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for,

24


 

or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by us may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of our core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based and other non-cash compensation, and the change in allowance for doubtful accounts. Management uses adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of our core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by us may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Typically, we experience fluctuations in revenue from quarter to quarter due to seasonality. Revenue in the first quarter typically is lower than average, and revenue in the fourth quarter typically is higher than average, due to the buying patterns of dental

25


 

practitioners. We believe that this trend exists because a significant number of dentists purchase their capital equipment towards the end of the calendar year in order to maximize their practice earnings while seeking to minimize their taxes. They often use certain tax incentives, such as accelerated depreciation methods for purchasing capital equipment, as part of their year-end tax planning. In addition, revenue in the third quarter may be affected by vacation patterns which can cause revenue to be flat or lower than in the second quarter of the year. Our historical seasonal fluctuations may also be impacted by sales promotions used by large dental distributors that encourage end-of-quarter and end-of-year buying in our industry.

Total net revenue increased by $0.3 million, or 3%, during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to an increase in Waterlase sales to customers outside the U.S., along with higher consumable sales. In the U.S., net revenue decreased by $0.2 million, or 3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. Outside the U.S., net revenue increased by $0.5 million, or 16%, during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit: The following table summarizes our unaudited cost of revenue and gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, as well as the amount of change and percentage of change (dollars in thousands):

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue typically fluctuates with product and regional mix, selling prices, product costs and revenue levels. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $3.3 million, or 32% of net revenue, a decrease of approximately $1.4 million, or 29%, as compared with gross profit of $4.7 million, or 47% of net revenue, for the same period in 2022. The decrease in gross profit is primarily due to the impact of supply chain issues we have encountered requiring us to change to new suppliers, and the effect of an increase in the percentage of our revenue generated outside the U.S., where margins are lower than our U.S. business.

Operating Expenses: The following table summarizes our unaudited operating expenses (including as a percentage of net revenue) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, as well as the amount of change and percentage of change (dollars in thousands):

Sales and Marketing Expense. Sales and marketing expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased by $0.2 million, or 4%, as compared to the same period in 2022. This decrease is primarily due to $0.2 million in compensation costs and $0.2 million in decreased advertising costs, partially offset by $0.2 million in higher travel and tradeshow-related expenses.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased by $0.1 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2022. This decrease is primarily due to a $0.3 million decrease in legal and consulting fees, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in stock-based compensation expense.

Engineering and Development Expense. Engineering and development expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were consistent compared to the same period in 2022.

Non-Operating Income (Loss)

Loss on Foreign Currency Transactions. We realized an approximately $20 thousand gain on foreign currency transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to an approximately $120 thousand loss on foreign currency transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and Euro, as well as other foreign currencies.

26


 

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $0.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2022, an increase of 33%. This increase was due to the increasing interest rates.

Income Tax Provision. We use a discrete year-to-date method in calculating quarterly provision for income taxes. Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was consistent with the same period in 2022. For additional information regarding income taxes, see Part I, Item I, Note 13 – Income Taxes.

Net Loss. For the reasons stated above, our net loss totaled approximately $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to a net loss of $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2023, we had approximately $6.5 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $4.2 million as of December 31, 2022. Management defines cash and cash equivalents as highly liquid deposits with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased. The increase in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 2022 was primarily due to $8.5 million net proceeds from the January 2023 public offering, partially offset by a net loss of $5.8 million and $0.6 million in capital expenditures during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities consists of our net loss, adjusted for our non-cash charges, plus or minus working capital changes. Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled $5.7 million and was primarily comprised of our net loss of $5.8 million.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled $0.6 million and was comprised of the purchase of property, plant, and equipment. We expect cash flows used in investing activities to decrease in the remainder of 2023 due to the completion of our new training facility.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled $8.5 million and was derived from the net proceeds from the January 2023 public offering.

Effect of Exchange Rate

The $79 thousand effect of exchange rate on cash for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was due to recognized loss on foreign currency transactions, primarily driven by changes in the Euro during the period.

Future Liquidity Needs

As of March 31, 2023, we had working capital of approximately $13.0 million. Our principal sources of liquidity as of March 31, 2023 consisted of approximately $6.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.2 million of net accounts receivable.

The Company will need to raise additional capital in the future. Additional capital requirements may depend on many factors, including, among other things, the rate at which the Company’s business grows, demands for working capital, manufacturing capacity,

27


 

and any acquisitions that the Company may pursue. The Company expects that it will be required to raise capital through either equity or debt offerings. The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to successfully enter into any such equity or debt financings in the future or that the required capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that any such financing activity will not be dilutive to its stockholders. On May 4, 2023, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 for the issuance of Series H Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $50.00 and warrants to purchase one-half of one share of Series H Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The equity raise, which is subject to conditions including the SEC declaring the registration statement effective and market conditions, is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2023.

The Company has historically experienced losses from operations and has used cash and cash equivalents in operating activities. To be able to discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, we must increase sales of our products, control or potentially reduce expenses, and establish profitable operations in order to generate cash from operations or obtain additional funds when needed.

The Company’s recurring losses, level of cash used in operations, and potential need for additional capital, along with uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

In order for the Company to continue operations beyond the next 12 months and be able to discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, it must either raise additional capital or increase sales of our products, control or potentially reduce expenses, and establish profitable operations in order to generate cash from operations or obtain additional funds when needed.

We will endeavor to improve our financial condition and ultimately improve our financial results by increasing revenues through expansion of our product offerings, continuing to expand and develop our field sales force and distributor relationships both domestically and internationally, forming strategic arrangements within the dental and medical industries, educating dental and medical patients as to the benefits of our advanced medical technologies, and reducing expenses; however, there is no assurance that will be able to improve our financial condition.
