Description of the Business |
Asensus Surgical, Inc. (formerly known as TransEnterix, Inc.) (the "Company") is a medical device company that is digitizing the interface between the surgeon and the patient to pioneer a new era of Performance-Guided Surgery™ by unlocking clinical intelligence for surgeons to enable consistently superior outcomes and a new standard of surgery. The Company is focused on the market development for and commercialization of the Senhance® Surgical System, which digitizes laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery, or MIS. The Senhance System is the first and only digital, multi-port laparoscopic platform designed to maintain laparoscopic MIS standards while providing digital benefits such as haptic feedback, robotic precision, comfortable ergonomics, advanced instrumentation including 3mm microlaparoscopic instruments, 5mm articulating instruments, eye-sensing camera control and fully-reusable standard instruments to help maintain per-procedure costs similar to traditional laparoscopy.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results reported in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period or for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for all periods presented
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Asensus Surgical US, Inc., Asensus International, Inc., Asensus Surgical Italia S.r.l., Asensus Surgical Europe S.à.r.l., Asensus Surgical Taiwan Ltd., Asensus Surgical Japan K.K., Asensus Surgical Israel Ltd., Asensus Surgical Netherlands B.V., and Asensus Surgical Canada, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Risk and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks similar to other similarly sized companies in the medical device industry. These risks include, without limitation: negative impacts on the Company's operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; the historical lack of profitability; the Company’s ability to raise additional capital; the success of its market development efforts, the liquidity and capital resources of its partners; its ability to successfully develop, clinically test and commercialize its products; the timing and outcome of the regulatory review process for its products; changes in the health care and regulatory environments of the United States, the European Union, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries in which the Company operates or intends to operate; its ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and scientific personnel; its ability to successfully prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights; its ability to successfully transition from a research and development company to a marketing, sales and distribution company; competition in the market for robotic surgical devices; and its ability to identify and pursue development of additional products.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include impairment considerations for long- term intangible assets, fair value estimates related to contingent consideration, stock compensation expense, revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, short-term and long-term investments, excess and obsolete inventory reserves, inventory classification between current and non-current, measurement of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported previously have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation, with no effect on stockholders’ equity or net loss as previously reported. These reclassifications relate to revenue and cost of revenue for leases which historically was included in product and service revenue and corresponding cost of revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is designed to provide financial statement users with more information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2022, on a modified retrospective basis. The cumulative-effect adjustment related to the adoption was not material.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) guidance on the accounting for convertible debt instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the various accounting models that can require the instrument to be separated into a debt component and equity component or derivative component. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.
The Company has evaluated all other issued and ASUs not yet adopted and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, balance sheets, or statements of cash flows.

Remaining Performance Obligations
Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations relates to amounts allocated to products and services for which the revenue has not yet been recognized. A significant portion of this amount relates to service obligations performed under the Company's system sales contracts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2022 was $
Contract Assets and Liabilities
The Company invoices its customers based on the billing schedules in its sales arrangements. Contract assets for the periods presented primarily represent the difference between the revenue that was recognized based on the relative selling price of the related performance obligations and the contractual billing terms in the arrangements. Deferred revenue for the periods presented was primarily related to service obligations, for which the service fees are billed up-front, generally annually. The associated deferred revenue is generally recognized ratably over the service period. The Company did not have any significant impairment losses on its contract assets for the periods presented. Revenue recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period was $

Senhance System Leasing
The Company enters into operating lease arrangements with certain qualified customers. Revenue related to arrangements including lease elements are allocated to lease and non-lease elements based on their relative standalone selling prices. Lease elements generally include a Senhance System, while non-lease elements generally include instruments, accessories, and services. For some lease arrangements, the customers are provided with the option to purchase the leased System at some point during and/or at the end of the lease term. In some arrangements lease payments are based on the usage of the System. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, variable lease revenue related to usage-based arrangements was not material.
Trade Accounts Receivable
The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $

Leases |
Lessee Information
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or service contract at inception. Where an arrangement is a lease, the Company determines if it is an operating lease or a finance lease. Subsequently, if the arrangement is modified, the Company reevaluates the classification. The Company has entered into operating leases for corporate office buildings, vehicles, and machinery and equipment. Some of the lease agreements have renewal options, tenant improvement allowances, rent escalation clauses, and assignment and subletting clauses. While the operating leases range from
year to years, some include options to extend the lease generally between year and years, and some include options to terminate the leases within one year.
Components of operating lease expense are primarily recorded in general and administrative on the condensed consolidated statements of operations were as follows:

Income taxes have been accounted for using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company computes its interim provision for income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate method. The Company estimates an annual effective tax rate of (
The Company incurred losses for the three month period ended March 31, 2022 and is forecasting additional losses through the year, resulting in an estimated net loss for both financial statement and tax purposes for the year ending December 31, 2022. Due to the Company’s history of losses, there is not sufficient evidence to record a net deferred tax asset associated with the U.S., Luxembourg, Swiss, Italian, Taiwanese, and Canadian operations. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded related to the net deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.
Income tax (expense) benefit on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was approximately ($
The FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 740, No. 5, Accounting for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or to provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as a period expense only. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period expense in the year the tax is incurred. The Company does not expect a GILTI inclusion for 2022; no GILTI tax has been recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share |
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. Potential dilutive common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants. No adjustments have been made to the weighted average outstanding common shares figures for the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021 as the assumed exercise of outstanding options, warrants and restricted stock units would be anti-dilutive.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operation |
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. See cautionary note regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” at the beginning of this report.
Overview
Asensus Surgical is a medical device company that is digitizing the interface between the surgeon and the patient to pioneer a new era of Performance-Guided Surgery™ by unlocking clinical intelligence to enable consistently superior outcomes and a new standard of surgery. This builds upon the foundation of Digital Laparoscopy with the Senhance® Surgical System powered by the Intelligent Surgical Unit™, or ISU, to increase surgeon control and reduce surgical variability. With the addition of machine vision, augmented intelligence, and deep learning capabilities throughout the surgical experience, we intend to holistically address the current clinical, cognitive and economic shortcomings that drive surgical outcomes and value-based healthcare. The Company is focused on the market development for and commercialization of the Senhance Surgical System, which digitizes laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery, or MIS. The Senhance System is the first and only digital, multi-port laparoscopic platform designed to maintain laparoscopic MIS standards while providing digital benefits such as haptic feedback, robotic precision, comfortable ergonomics, advanced instrumentation including 3mm microlaparoscopic instruments, 5mm articulating instruments, eye-sensing camera control and fully-reusable standard instruments to help maintain per-procedure costs similar to traditional laparoscopy.
The Senhance System is available for sale in Europe, the United States, Japan, Taiwan, Russia (to the extent lawful), and select other countries.
• |
The Senhance System has a CE Mark in Europe for adult and pediatric laparoscopic abdominal and pelvic surgery, as well as limited thoracic surgeries excluding cardiac and vascular surgery. |
• |
In the United States, the Company has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for use of the Senhance System in general laparoscopic surgical procedures and laparoscopic gynecologic surgery in a total of 31 indicated procedures, including benign and oncologic procedures, laparoscopic inguinal, hiatal and paraesophageal hernia, sleeve gastrectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. |
• |
In Japan, the Company has received regulatory approval and reimbursement for 98 laparoscopic procedures. |
• |
The Senhance System received its registration certificate by the Russian medical device regulatory agency, Roszdravnadzor, in December 2020, allowing for its sale and utilization throughout the Russian Federation. |
We also enter into lease arrangements with certain qualified customers. For some lease arrangements, the customers are provided with the right to purchase the leased Senhance System during or at the end of the lease term ("Lease Buyout").
On February 23, 2021, we changed our name from TransEnterix, Inc. to Asensus Surgical, Inc. as part of our strategy to utilize the Senhance System and ISU capabilities, along with our other augmented intelligence related offerings and instrumentation to unlock clinical intelligence to enable consistently superior outcomes and a new standard of surgery we are calling Performance-Guided Surgery. We believe our product offerings, and our digitization of the interface between the surgeon and the patient allows us to assist the surgeon in all aspects of laparoscopic surgery including:
● |
Pre-operative - in what we call “intelligent preparation,” our machine learning models will take data from all the procedures done utilizing our current Senhance System with the ISU, such as tracking surgical motion and team interaction, to create a large and constantly improving database of surgeries and their outcomes to enable surgeons to best inform their approach and surgical setup. |
● |
Intra-operative – we believe the Senhance System provides perceptive real-time guidance for intra-operative tasks, allowing any surgeon performing a procedure with the Senhance System to perform multiple tasks and benefit from the collective knowledge and rules-based performance of thousands of other successful Senhance-based procedures. Not only will this provide the surgeon with a pathway to better outcomes, but we also believe it will ultimately help reduce the cognitive load of the surgeons. |
● |
Post-operative – by tapping into the vast amount of data captured during procedures, surgeons and operating room staff will be able to get actionable assessments of their performance giving them the information needed to improve performance over time. We intend to establish a new standard of analytics to improve not only the skills of all surgeons but move towards best-practice-sharing that bridges the global surgeon community. |
We received FDA clearance in March 2020 for our ISU. We believe it is the only FDA cleared device for machine vision technology in abdominal robotic surgery. On September 23, 2020, we announced the first surgical procedures successfully completed using the ISU. In January 2021, we received CE Mark for the ISU.
In February 2020, we received CE Mark for the Senhance System and related instruments for pediatric use indications in CE Mark territories.
In 2020, we obtained regulatory clearance for the Senhance ultrasonic system in both Taiwan and Japan. We also received clearance for the ISU in both the U.S. and Japan. Finally, in the EU, we expanded our claims for the Senhance System to include pediatric patients, allowing accessibility to more surgeons and patients, as well as expanding our potential market to include pediatric hospitals in Europe. We anticipate the robotic precision provided by the Senhance System, coupled with the already available 3mm instruments will prove to be an effective tool in surgery with smaller patients.
On July 28, 2021, the Company announced that it received FDA clearance for 5mm diameter articulating instruments, offering better access to difficult-to-reach areas of the anatomy by providing two additional degrees of freedom. These instruments have previously received CE Mark for use in the EU.
The Company believes that future outcomes of minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery will be enhanced through its combination of more advanced tools and robotic functionality, which are designed to: (i) empower surgeons with improved precision, dexterity and visualization; (ii) improve patient satisfaction and enable a desirable post-operative recovery; and (iii) provide a cost-effective robotic system, compared to existing alternatives today, for a wide range of clinical indications.
From our inception, we devoted a substantial percentage of our resources to research and development and start-up activities, consisting primarily of product design and development, clinical studies, manufacturing, recruiting qualified personnel and raising capital. We expect to continue to invest in research and development and market development as we implement our strategy.
Since inception, we have been unprofitable. As of March 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $804.5 million. We operate in one business segment.
Recent Financing Transactions
At-the -Market Offerings
On March 18, 2022, the Company entered a Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the “2022 Sales Agreement”), with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. The Company commenced an at-the-market offering (the “2022 ATM Offering”) pursuant to which the Company could sell from time to time, at its option, up to an aggregate of $100.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock. No sales of common stock were made under the 2022 ATM Offering during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Results of Operations - Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021
Revenue
In the first quarter of 2022, our revenue consisted of ongoing System leasing payments, sales of instruments and accessories, and services revenue for Systems sold or placed in Europe, Asia, and the U.S. in prior periods.
Product revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to $0.3 million compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $1.1 million decrease was primarily the result of a Lease Buyout in the prior period.
Service revenue for the three months ended March 31,2022 decreased to $0.3 million compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $0.1 million decrease was the result of customer mix and fluctuations in exchange rates.
Lease revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased to $0.4 million compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $0.1 million increase was the result of an increase in the number of leased Senhance Systems in the current period.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of contract manufacturing, materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead incurred internally to produce the products. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of revenue. We expense all inventory obsolescence provisions as cost of revenue. The manufacturing overhead costs include the cost of quality assurance, material procurement, inventory control, facilities, equipment depreciation and operations supervision and management. We expect overhead costs as a percentage of revenues to decline as our production volume increases. We expect cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars to the extent our revenues grow and as we continue to invest in our operational infrastructure to support anticipated growth.
Product cost for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to $0.4 million as compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $1.3 million decrease primarily relates to a $0.9 million decrease in product costs driven by a Lease Buyout in the prior period and a $0.5 million decrease in personnel-related costs, partially offset by a $0.1 million increase in supplies costs.
Service cost for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased to $0.5 million as compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $0.1 million increase primarily relates to an increase in personnel-related costs. Cost of revenue exceeds revenue primarily due to part replacements under maintenance plans, which are expensed when incurred, along with salaries for the field service teams.
Lease cost for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to $1.0 million as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $0.1 million decrease primarily relates to a decrease in product cost related to leases.
Research and Development
Research and development, or R&D, expenses primarily consist of engineering, product development and regulatory expenses incurred in the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products and legal services associated with our efforts to obtain and maintain broad protection for the intellectual property related to our products. In future periods, we expect R&D expenses to continue to increase moderately as we continue to invest in additional regulatory approvals as well as new products, instruments and accessories to be offered with the Senhance System. R&D expenses are expensed as incurred.
R&D expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 52% to $6.4 million as compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $2.2 million increase primarily relates to increased personnel costs of $1.1 million, increased consulting costs of $0.8 million, increased facilities costs of $0.1 million, increased supplies costs of $0.1 million, and increased miscellaneous costs of $0.1 million.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses include costs for sales and marketing personnel, travel, demonstration product, market development, physician training, tradeshows, marketing clinical studies and consulting expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 19% to $3.7 million compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $0.6 million increase was primarily related to increased personnel costs of $0.3 million, increased travel costs of $0.2 million, and increased consulting costs of $0.2 million, partially offset by decreased supplies costs of $0.1 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs related to the executive, finance, legal and human resource functions, as well as professional service fees, legal fees, accounting fees, insurance costs, and general corporate expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 38% to $5.5 million compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $1.5 million increase was primarily related to increased personnel costs of $1.0 million, increased consulting costs of $0.2 million, increased bad debt expense of $0.2 million, increased miscellaneous costs of $0.2 million, and increased supplies costs of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in facilities costs of $0.2 million.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to $2.7 million compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $0.2 million decrease is primarily driven by changes in the foreign currency exchange rate.
Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration
The change in fair value of contingent consideration in connection with the Senhance Acquisition was a $0.2 million decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a $0.3 million increase for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to changes in market assumptions utilized in the valuation of fair value of the contingent consideration.
Other Expense
Other Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to $0.1 million compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Other Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily related to the change in the fair value of Series B Warrants issued April 2017 of $2.0 million which were exercised during the first quarter of 2021. No related expense was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Income Tax (Expense) Benefit
The Company recognized ($0.08) million income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $0.04 million income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had an accumulated deficit of $804.5 million and working capital of $110.0 million as of March 31, 2022. The Company has not established sufficient revenues to cover its operating costs and believes it will require additional capital in the future to proceed with its operating plan. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments, excluding restricted cash, of approximately $118.5 million.
The Company believes the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to negatively impact its operations and ability to implement its market development efforts, which will have a negative effect on its financial condition.
While the Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments, as of March 31, 2022 and as of the date of filing, will be sufficient to sustain operations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of these financial statements, the Company believes it will need to obtain additional financing in the future to proceed with its business plan. Management's plan to obtain additional resources for the Company may include additional sales of equity, traditional financing, such as loans, entry into a strategic collaboration, entry into an out-licensing arrangement or provision of additional distribution rights in some or all of our markets. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any or all of its plans.
The Company is subject to risks similar to other similarly sized companies in the medical device industry. These risks include, without limitation: negative impacts on the Company's operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; the historical lack of profitability; the Company’s ability to raise additional capital; the success of its market development efforts, the liquidity and capital resources of its partners; its ability to successfully develop, clinically test and commercialize its products; the timing and outcome of the regulatory review process for its products; changes in the health care and regulatory environments of the United States, the European Union, Japan, Taiwan and other countries in which the Company operates or intends to operate; its ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and scientific personnel; its ability to successfully prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights; its ability to successfully transition from a research and development company to a marketing, sales and distribution concern; competition in the market for robotic surgical devices; and its ability to identify and pursue development of additional products.
Sources of Liquidity
Our principal sources of cash to date have been proceeds from public offerings of common stock, incurrence of debt, the sale of equity securities held as investments and asset sales.

The decrease in cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily relates to a $1.4 million increase in inventory net of transfers to property and equipment, $1.1 million decrease in accrued expenses, $0.5 million increase in other current and long-term assets, $0.2 million decrease in operating lease liabilities, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in prepaid expenses, $0.2 million decrease in operating lease right-of-use assets, and a $0.1 million increase in accounts payable.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, cash used in operating activities of $10.2 million consisted of a net loss of $17.3 million and cash used for working capital of $0.7 million, offset by non-cash items of $7.8 million. The non-cash items primarily consisted of $1.8 million of stock-based compensation expense, $2.9 million of amortization of intangible assets, $2.0 million change in fair value of warrant liabilities, $0.8 million of depreciation, $0.3 million change in fair value of contingent consideration. The decrease in cash from changes in working capital primarily relates to a $3.1 million increase in operating lease right-of-use assets, $2.3 million decrease in accrued expenses, $1.6 million increase in accounts receivable, and $0.2 million increase in inventory net of transfers to property and equipment, offset by a $3.1 million increase in operating lease liabilities, a $2.8 million decrease in other current and long term assets, a $0.3 million decrease in prepaid expenses, a $0.2 million increase in accounts payable, and a $0.1 increase in deferred revenue.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by investing activities was $23.0 million. This amount consists of $29.2 million of proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale investments, offset by $6.0 million of purchases of available-for-sale investments and $0.2 million purchases of property and equipment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $0.4 million, related to purchases of property and equipment.
Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million, related to taxes paid for the net share settlement of vesting of restricted stock units.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $159.6 million. The net change primarily related to $129.3 million in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock and $30.5 million aggregate proceeds from the exercise of Series B, C and D warrants, partially offset by $0.2 million of taxes paid related to net share settlement of vesting of restricted stock units.
Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements
We intend to spend substantial amounts on research and development activities, including product development, regulatory and compliance, clinical studies. We intend to use financing opportunities strategically to continue to strengthen our financial position.
Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries totaled $1.7 million as of March 31, 2022, including restricted cash. We do not intend or currently foresee a need to repatriate cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed in the United States, we believe that the potential U.S. tax impact to repatriate these funds would be immaterial.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2022, we did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations set forth above under the headings “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing in this Form 10-Q and in the Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates, including identifiable intangible assets, contingent consideration, stock-based compensation, inventory, revenue recognition and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. A more detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies can be found in Note 2 in the Notes to the Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. There have been no new or material changes to the critical accounting estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, that are of significance, or potential significance, to us.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
We are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Operations outside of the United States accounted for 76% and 88% of revenue for three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and are concentrated principally in Europe. We translate the revenue and expenses of our foreign operations using average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The effect of a 10% change in the average foreign currency exchange rates among the U.S. dollar versus the Euro for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, would result in revenue changing by $0.07 million. This change would be not material to our cash flows and our results of operations.
Controls and Procedures |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2022. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that some of our employees are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

Risk Factors. |
Reference is made to the Risk Factors included in our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our risk factors from those disclosed under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K, which are supplemented by the following:
We may experience difficulties implementing our new global enterprise resource planning system.
We are engaged in a multi-year implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning system (“ERP”), which is entering a critical phase in the second quarter of 2022. The ERP is designed to efficiently maintain our books and records and provide information important to the operation of our business to our management team. The ERP will continue to require significant investment of human and financial resources. In implementing the ERP, we may experience significant delays, increased costs and other difficulties. Any significant disruption or deficiency in the design and implementation of the ERP could adversely affect our ability to process orders, ship product, send invoices and track payments, fulfill contractual obligations or otherwise operate our business. In addition, our efforts to centralize various business processes and functions within our organization in connection with our ERP implementation may continue to disrupt our operations and negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] |
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results reported in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period or for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal 2021 Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for all periods presented
Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Asensus Surgical US, Inc., Asensus International, Inc., Asensus Surgical Italia S.r.l., Asensus Surgical Europe S.à.r.l., Asensus Surgical Taiwan Ltd., Asensus Surgical Japan K.K., Asensus Surgical Israel Ltd., Asensus Surgical Netherlands B.V., and Asensus Surgical Canada, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Risk and Uncertainties The Company is subject to risks similar to other similarly sized companies in the medical device industry. These risks include, without limitation: negative impacts on the Company's operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; the historical lack of profitability; the Company’s ability to raise additional capital; the success of its market development efforts, the liquidity and capital resources of its partners; its ability to successfully develop, clinically test and commercialize its products; the timing and outcome of the regulatory review process for its products; changes in the health care and regulatory environments of the United States, the European Union, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries in which the Company operates or intends to operate; its ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and scientific personnel; its ability to successfully prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights; its ability to successfully transition from a research and development company to a marketing, sales and distribution company; competition in the market for robotic surgical devices; and its ability to identify and pursue development of additional products.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include impairment considerations for long- term intangible assets, fair value estimates related to contingent consideration, stock compensation expense, revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, short-term and long-term investments, excess and obsolete inventory reserves, inventory classification between current and non-current, measurement of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
Significant Accounting Policies There have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Reclassifications Certain amounts reported previously have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation, with no effect on stockholders’ equity or net loss as previously reported. These reclassifications relate to revenue and cost of revenue for leases which historically was included in product and service revenue and corresponding cost of revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is designed to provide financial statement users with more information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2022, on a modified retrospective basis. The cumulative-effect adjustment related to the adoption was not material.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) guidance on the accounting for convertible debt instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the various accounting models that can require the instrument to be separated into a debt component and equity component or derivative component. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.
The Company has evaluated all other issued and ASUs not yet adopted and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, balance sheets, or statements of cash flows. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] |
The following table presents revenue disaggregated by type and geography:
Remaining Performance Obligations Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations relates to amounts allocated to products and services for which the revenue has not yet been recognized. A significant portion of this amount relates to service obligations performed under the Company's system sales contracts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2022 was $2.6 million, which is expected to be recognized over to years.
Contract Assets and Liabilities The Company invoices its customers based on the billing schedules in its sales arrangements. Contract assets for the periods presented primarily represent the difference between the revenue that was recognized based on the relative selling price of the related performance obligations and the contractual billing terms in the arrangements. Deferred revenue for the periods presented was primarily related to service obligations, for which the service fees are billed up-front, generally annually. The associated deferred revenue is generally recognized ratably over the service period. The Company did not have any significant impairment losses on its contract assets for the periods presented. Revenue recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period was $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively
The following information summarizes the Company’s contract assets and liabilities:
Senhance System Leasing The Company enters into operating lease arrangements with certain qualified customers. Revenue related to arrangements including lease elements are allocated to lease and non-lease elements based on their relative standalone selling prices. Lease elements generally include a Senhance System, while non-lease elements generally include instruments, accessories, and services. For some lease arrangements, the customers are provided with the option to purchase the leased System at some point during and/or at the end of the lease term. In some arrangements lease payments are based on the usage of the System. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, variable lease revenue related to usage-based arrangements was not material.
Trade Accounts Receivable The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $1.8 million and $1.7 million as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, bad debt expense was not material.

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] |
Income taxes have been accounted for using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company computes its interim provision for income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate method. The Company estimates an annual effective tax rate of (0.3)% for the year ending December 31, 2022. This rate does not include the impact of any discrete items. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was (0.4)% and 0.2%, respectively.
The Company incurred losses for the three month period ended March 31, 2022 and is forecasting additional losses through the year, resulting in an estimated net loss for both financial statement and tax purposes for the year ending December 31, 2022. Due to the Company’s history of losses, there is not sufficient evidence to record a net deferred tax asset associated with the U.S., Luxembourg, Swiss, Italian, Taiwanese, and Canadian operations. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded related to the net deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.
Income tax (expense) benefit on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was approximately ($0.08) million and $0.04 million, respectively. At March 31, 2022, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits that would affect the Company’s effective tax rate.
The FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 740, No. 5, Accounting for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or to provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as a period expense only. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period expense in the year the tax is incurred. The Company does not expect a GILTI inclusion for 2022; no GILTI tax has been recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021. |

|
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include impairment considerations for long- term intangible assets, fair value estimates related to contingent consideration, stock compensation expense, revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, short-term and long-term investments, excess and obsolete inventory reserves, inventory classification between current and non-current, measurement of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.

Significant Accounting Policies [Policy Text Block] | Significant Accounting Policies There have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Reclassification, Comparability Adjustment [Policy Text Block] | Reclassifications Certain amounts reported previously have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation, with no effect on stockholders’ equity or net loss as previously reported. These reclassifications relate to revenue and cost of revenue for leases which historically was included in product and service revenue and corresponding cost of revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is designed to provide financial statement users with more information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2022, on a modified retrospective basis. The cumulative-effect adjustment related to the adoption was not material.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) guidance on the accounting for convertible debt instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the various accounting models that can require the instrument to be separated into a debt component and equity component or derivative component. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.
The Company has evaluated all other issued and ASUs not yet adopted and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, balance sheets, or statements of cash flows. |
