Fourth Quarter 2024 & Recent Highlights

Advanced Product and Clinical Development

  • Successfully completed the first human clinical study of the continuous blood glucose monitor (CBGM) clearly demonstrating the promise and performance of the technology:
    • The study met its primary endpoint with no procedure- or device-related serious adverse events reported from placement, use and through removal.
    • The study confirmed the function and placement of the CBGM sensor lead in the subclavian vein and verified no additional tools or skillset beyond typical cardiac pacemaker lead placement are needed.
    • The study confirmed reliable Bluetooth performance and demonstrated similar accuracy as seen in animal studies.
  • Received ISO 13485:2016 certification from the British Standards Institute (BSI) demonstrating our commitment and ability to meet rigorous global standards for design and manufacturing of high-quality medical devices.
  • Presented preclinical data at the Diabetes Technology Meeting in October 2024, highlighting the robust early performance of our CBGM.
  • Successfully completed the first-ever long-term preclinical study of glucose monitoring in the epidural space, creating a pathway for strategic opportunities in integrated chronic disease management.

Strengthened Financial Position

  • Secured $16.3 million in proceeds through multiple rounds of funding from November 2024 through March 2025. The proceeds provide runway for the Company to achieve near-term product and clinical development milestones in 2025.

Strengthened Leadership and Board to Drive Clinical Development

  • Appointed Guillermo Umpierrez, MD, CDCES, FACE, MACP to the Medical Advisory Board. As a former president of the American Diabetes Association for Medicine and Science, Dr. Umpierrez has extensive experience leading and participating in clinical research that has significantly advanced the understanding and treatment of diabetes.

Anticipated Milestones in 2025

  • Presenting clinical data demonstrating the safety and accuracy of the CBGM at major medical conferences
    • Early Feasibility Study to Evaluate an Intravascular Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor in Adults with Diabetes Mellitus Poster Presentation at the recent 18th International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes (ATTD 2025), March 19-22, 2025, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
  • Further expanding our Advisory Board with world-renowned experts in endocrinology and cardiology.
  • Commencing a long-term, multicenter feasibility study of the fully implantable CBGM system in Australia, anticipated in Q2 2025.
  • Securing IDE approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a long-term, multicenter Pilot Study of the CBGM system, anticipated in Q4 2025, subject to current agency response timelines.

Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2024

Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses were $9.5 million for the full year 2024 compared to $4.7 million for the full year 2023. The increase of $4.8 million was primarily attributable to increased activities related to product design, development and manufacturing activities and pre-clinical animal studies.

Marketing, General and Administrative Expenses: Marketing, General and Administrative expenses were $5.1 million for the full year 2024 compared to $2.4 million for the full year 2023. The increase of $2.7 million was primarily attributable to increased legal and professional fees, personnel costs and placement agent fees.

Net Loss: Net loss for the full year 2024 was $22.6 million compared to a net loss of $7.1 million for the full year 2023. The increase in net loss is attributable primarily to the operating expenses of $7.5 million discussed above in addition to non-cash losses of $7.5 million related to the settlement of debt and the issuance of warrants containing derivative features.

Cash Position: Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024, were $5.6 million, compared with $4.5 million in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2023. The net increase in cash and cash equivalents compared to December 31, 2023 was attributable to the $13.7 million from financing activities offset by cash used in operating and investing activities of $12.6 million.

On a pro forma basis, cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024 was $11.9 million when adjusted for proceeds from financing activities during the first quarter 2025 of $6.3 million.

Based on current plans and assumptions, the Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund its 2025 operating plan to initiate human clinical trials and related milestones.
