The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020,
included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to
historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.
Some of the numbers included herein have been rounded for the convenience of
presentation. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in
these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those
discussed under the "Risk Factors" section of our 2019 Form 10-K filed with the
SEC on March 4, 2020, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on
May 5, 2020, and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Vapotherm, Inc. is a global medical technology company focused on the
development and commercialization of our proprietary high velocity therapy
products that are used to treat patients of all ages suffering from respiratory
distress. Our high velocity therapy delivers non-invasive ventilatory support by
providing heated, humidified and oxygenated air at a high velocity to patients
through a comfortable small-bore nasal interface. Our Precision Flow systems,
which use high velocity therapy, are clinically validated alternatives to, and
address many limitations of, the current standard of care for the treatment of
respiratory distress in a hospital setting. As of June 30, 2020, more than
2.3 million patients have been treated with our Precision Flow systems, and we
have a global installed base of over 22,000 capital units.

The efficacy of Vapotherm's products is supported by a significant body of
clinical evidence across multiple patient populations suffering from respiratory
distress. We have developed the only high velocity nasal insufflation device
clinically validated as an alternative to non-invasive positive pressure
ventilation ("NIPPV") while addressing many of its limitations, including
through our sponsored 204 patient, multisite randomized controlled trial in the
emergency department ("ED") which was published in the July 2018 issue of Annals
of Emergency Medicine. Additionally, in April 2020 Heart and Lung, the Journal
of Cardiopulmonary and Acute Care, published a subgroup analysis from this ED
study that showed high velocity therapy may provide ventilatory support similar
to NIPPV in patients presenting with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related
to the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"). Vapotherm's high velocity therapy is a
first-line therapy for treating respiratory distress, which is experienced by
many COVID-19 patients. The Journal of the American Medical Association
published data from mainland China in April 2020 suggesting that 19% of all
COVID-19 patients experience respiratory distress and require some amount of
respiratory support. Our hospital customers around the world are using our
technology to treat the respiratory distress experienced by many COVID-19
patients so that they can triage their sickest patients to a limited number of
ventilators. As a result, we have seen a significant increase in worldwide
demand for our products from both new and existing accounts in the first six
months of 2020. Our operations team, with support from our primarily domestic
supply chain, has increased our production capacity to more than twenty times
our pre-COVID-19 production capacity, including adding additional shifts and
production lines. Looking ahead, our focus is on managing our production levels
and supply chain to meet customer demand during this pandemic. The recent
increase in demand for our products has been accompanied by gross profit
headwinds, such as increases in air freight costs and expediting fees for
components, a higher mix of capital equipment and international revenue, and
many related risks to our business. The full extent of the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain
and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning
the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to treat or contain COVID-19 or to
otherwise limit its impact, among others.



We currently offer four versions of our Precision Flow systems: Precision Flow
Hi-VNI, Precision Flow Plus, Precision Flow Classic and Precision Flow Heliox.
We also initiated a limited release of our Oxygen Assist Module to certain
United Kingdom neonatal intensive care unit accounts in the first quarter of
2020 and to certain adult intensive care unit accounts in Germany and Austria in
the second quarter of 2020 for adult hypoxic patients, and we may expand those
limited releases to additional United Kingdom and European accounts. The Oxygen
Assist Module is designed to be used with all versions of our Precision Flow
systems except for the Precision Flow Heliox. Our Oxygen Assist Module is
designed to help clinicians maintain the pulse oxygen saturation ("SpO2") within
the target SpO2 range over a significantly greater proportion of time while
requiring significantly fewer manual adjustments to the equipment. Maintenance
of the prescribed oxygen saturation range may reduce the health risks associated
with dosing too much, or too little, oxygen. We intend to fully launch the
Oxygen Assist Module commercially throughout the United Kingdom and Europe by
the end of 2020, at which time we believe we will begin generating revenue from
the product.



In the United States, the Oxygen Assist Module was granted Breakthrough Device
Designation by the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") on April
2, 2020 for the following indication: The Oxygen Assist Module (OAM) is an
optional module used only with the Vapotherm Precision Flow and is indicated for
on-demand titration of oxygen into warm humidified breathing gases delivered to
spontaneously breathing patients based on continuous non-invasive monitoring of
blood oxygen saturation. OAM is intended to treat pediatric patients (neonates
and infants ?1000g) in monitored clinical environments (e.g., NICU). We are
continuing to work on an Investigational Device Exemption and, if authorized,
plan to initiate a neonate study by the end of the year.

We generate revenue from sales of our Precision Flow systems and the related
disposable products utilized with our Precision Flow systems. To a lesser
extent, we generate revenue from sales of the Precision Flow system's companion
products, which include the Vapotherm Transfer Unit 2.0, the Q50 compressor and
various adaptors. We offer different options to our hospital customers for
acquiring Precision Flow capital units, ranging from the purchase of the
Precision Flow capital units with payment in full at the time of purchase, to
the financed purchase of Precision Flow capital units, to bundled discounts
involving the placement of Precision Flow capital units for use by the customer
at no upfront charge in connection with the customer's ongoing purchase of
disposable products.

We sell our Precision Flow systems to hospitals through a direct sales
organization in the United States and in the United Kingdom and through
distributors in other select countries outside of the United States and United
Kingdom. We intend to fully launch our Oxygen Assist Module commercially
throughout the United Kingdom and Europe by the end of 2020 through a direct
sales organization in the United Kingdom and through distributors in other
select countries in Europe. In addition, we have clinical educators who are
experienced users of high velocity therapy and who focus on our medical
education efforts to facilitate adoption and increase utilization. We focus on
physicians, respiratory therapists and nurses who work in acute hospital
settings, including the ED and adult, pediatric and neonatal ICUs. Our
relationship with these clinicians is particularly important, as it enables our
products to follow patients through the care continuum. We have sold our
Precision Flow systems to over 1,600 hospitals across the United States, where
they have been primarily deployed in the ICU setting.

We assemble our Precision Flow systems in our facility in New Hampshire and we
rely on third-party suppliers for a majority of the components of our products,
including many single source suppliers. Historically, we maintained higher
levels of inventory to protect ourselves from supply interruptions, and, as a
result, we were subject to the risk of inventory obsolescence and expiration,
which could lead to inventory impairment charges. Currently, however, as we seek
to fulfill increased demand in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, there have
been times where we were not able to carry higher levels of inventory, and as a
result, we have experienced and may in the future experience supply
interruptions. We currently ship our Precision Flow systems from our facility in
New Hampshire directly to our United States customers and many of our
international distributors on a purchase order basis. Warehousing and shipping
operations for some of our international distributors are handled by a
third-party vendor with facilities located in the Netherlands. While our
customers have the right to return purchased products subject to a restocking
fee, our historical return experience has been immaterial. However, although we
have priority shipping status with our carriers, as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic, we have experienced, and may in the future experience, shipping delays
throughout the United States and internationally, and as a result, there have
been and may in the future be delays in our ability to ship our product to
customers and distributors in a timely manner, which may potentially result in a
greater percentage of returned product than we have historically experienced.

Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through public
offerings of our common stock, private placements of our convertible preferred
stock, sales of our Precision Flow systems and amounts borrowed under our credit
facilities. We have devoted the majority of our resources to research and
development activities related to our Precision Flow systems including
regulatory initiatives and sales and marketing activities. We have invested
heavily in our sales and marketing function by increasing the number of sales
representatives and clinical educators to facilitate adoption and increase
utilization of our high velocity therapy products and expanded our digital
marketing initiatives and medical education programs. For the second quarter of
2020, we generated revenue of $35.2 million and had a net loss of $8.0 million
compared to revenue of $12.0 million and a net loss of $12.9 million for the
second quarter of 2019. Our accumulated deficit as of June 30, 2020 was
$287.3 million. In the second quarter of 2020, 73.1% of our revenue was derived
in the United States and 26.9% was derived outside the United States. No single
customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

We intend to continue to make significant investments in our sales and marketing
organization by increasing the number of U.S. sales representatives, expanding
our international marketing programs and expanding direct to clinician digital
marketing efforts to help facilitate further adoption among existing hospital
accounts as well as broaden awareness of our products to new hospitals. We also
expect to continue to make investments in research and development, regulatory
affairs and clinical studies to develop future generations of our high velocity
therapy products, support regulatory submissions and demonstrate the clinical
efficacy of our new products. In addition, as we seek to maintain our current
increased production capacity and explore further expansion thereof to satisfy
COVID-19 related demand, we expect to continue to make investments in our
production capabilities. Because of these and other factors, we expect to
continue to incur net losses for the next several years and we may require
additional funding, which may include future equity, including sales under our
at-the-market sales agreement with Jefferies LLC dated December 20, 2019 under
which we may offer and sell from time to time our common stock having aggregate
sales proceeds of up to $50.0 million, and debt financings. During the first six
months of 2020, the Company sold 511,648 shares of its common stock through its
at-the-market stock offering program. The sales generated net proceeds of
approximately $9.8 million, net of sales commissions and offering expenses. As
of June 30, 2020, there was approximately $39.7 million in remaining capacity
under the at-the-market stock offering program.

Revenue increased $23.2 million, or 193.3%, to $35.2 million for the second
quarter of 2020 compared to $12.0 million for the second quarter of 2019. The
increase in revenue was primarily attributable to a $16.7 million and $4.6
million increase in capital equipment and disposable revenue, respectively.
Capital equipment revenue increased 629.9% in the second quarter of 2020
primarily due to increased sales of our Precision Flow units as a result of
increased demand related to the COVID-19 pandemic and increased average selling
prices in both the United States and International markets. Disposable revenue
increased 54.3% in the second quarter of 2020 primarily driven by an increase in
the worldwide installed base of Precision Flow units and increased utilization
due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Lease revenue also increased primarily due to a
higher volume of leases of our Precision Flow units and, to a lesser extent, due
to higher utilization of disposables for Precision Flow units under placement
arrangements.

Revenue increased $30.0 million, or 123.5%, to $54.3 million for the first six
months of 2020 compared to $24.3 million for the first six months of 2019. The
increase in revenue was primarily attributable to a $19.6 million and $8.0
million increase in capital equipment and disposable revenue, respectively.
Capital equipment revenue increased 421.5% in the first six months of 2020
primarily due to increased sales of our Precision Flow units as a result of
increased demand related to the COVID-19 pandemic and increased average selling
prices. Disposable revenue increased 45.8% in the first six months of 2020
primarily driven by an increase in the worldwide installed base of Precision

second quarter of 2020 compared to $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2019.
Cost of revenue increased $13.8 million, or 101.1%, to $27.4 million in the
first six months of 2020 compared to $13.6 million in the first six months of
2019. These increases were primarily due to higher materials and labor costs due
to a rapid increase in sales volumes of our Precision Flow units and disposables
in order to meet demand related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Gross profit increased to 50.1% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 45.5%
in the second quarter of 2019. Gross profit increased to 49.4% in the first six
months of 2020 compared to 43.8% in the first six months of 2019. Gross profit
was positively impacted by improved overhead absorption due to higher production
throughput. Partially offsetting these positive factors were higher labor costs
and increased supplier freight and expediting fees to meet the rapid increase in
production capacity, and to a lesser extent a higher mix of Precision Flow
systems. Gross profit was also positively impacted by higher average selling
prices of capital equipment in the United States and International markets,
partially offset by lower average selling prices of disposables in International
markets.

Research and Development Expenses



Research and development expenses increased $0.7 million, or 23.0%, to
$3.9 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $3.2 million in the
second quarter of 2019. As a percentage of revenue, research and development
expenses decreased to 11.1% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 26.4% in
the second quarter of 2019.

Research and development expenses increased $0.8 million, or 12.7%, to
$7.3 million in the first six months of 2020 compared to $6.4 million in the
first six months of 2019. As a percentage of revenue, research and development
expenses decreased to 13.4% in the first six months of 2020 compared to 26.5% in
the first six months of 2019.

The increase in research and development expenses in both comparison periods was
due to increased employee-related expenses and stock-based compensation.
Additionally, the increase in research and development expenses during the first
six months of 2020 was related to increased product development and prototype
costs.

Sales and Marketing Expenses



Sales and marketing expenses increased $5.4 million, or 57.5%, to $14.9 million
in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $9.4 million in the second quarter of
2019. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses decreased to
42.3% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 78.7% in the second quarter of
2019.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $9.6 million, or 51.5%, to $28.2 million in the first six months of 2020 compared to $18.6 million in the first six months of 2019. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses decreased to 51.9% in the first six months of 2020 compared to 76.6% in the first six months of 2019.



The increase in sales and marketing expenses in both comparison periods was
primarily due to increased sales commissions as a result of increased revenue
due to the COVID-19 pandemic along with increases in the size of the sales and
marketing organization and increased stock-based compensation. The increase in
sales and marketing expenses in both comparison periods was partially offset by
a reduction in travel expenses due to COVID-19. Additionally, the increase in
sales and marketing expenses during the first six months of 2020 was also
partially offset by a reduction in marketing initiatives and training costs.

General and Administrative Expenses



General and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million, or 24.2%, to
$5.6 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $4.5 million in the
second quarter of 2019. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative
expenses decreased to 16.0% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 37.8% in
the second quarter of 2019.

General and administrative expenses increased $1.5 million, or 15.6%, to
$10.9 million in the first six months of 2020 compared to $9.4 million in the
first six months of 2019. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative
expenses decreased to 20.0% in the first six months of 2020 compared to 38.8% in
the first six months of 2019.

The increase in general and administrative expenses in both comparison periods
was primarily due to increases in employee-related expenses, insurance and
reserves for bad debt offset by reductions in travel expenses and legal costs.
Additionally, the increase in general and administrative expenses during the
second quarter of 2020 was related to increased stock-based compensation.

                                       31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other Expense, Net



Other expense, net increased $0.1 million, or 4.3%, to $1.3 million in the
second quarter of 2020 compared to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2019.
Other expense, net increased $0.4 million, or 17.3%, to $2.4 million in the
first six months of 2020 compared to $2.0 million in the first six months of
2019. The increase in other expense, net in the second quarter of 2020 was due
to decreased interest income primarily due to lower interest rates on invested
balances, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense primarily due to
lower interest rates on outstanding borrowings. The increase in other expense,
net in the first six months of 2020 was due to a decreased interest income
primarily due to lower interest rates on invested balances partially offset by
an increase in interest expense primarily related to additional borrowings under
our credit facilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



As of June 30, 2020, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of
$150.2 million and an accumulated deficit of $287.3 million. Our primary sources
of capital to date have been from public offerings of our common stock, private
placements of our convertible preferred stock, sales of our Precision Flow
systems and amounts borrowed under credit facilities. Since inception, we have
raised a total of $162.6 million in net proceeds from private placements of our
convertible preferred stock. On November 16, 2018, we completed an initial
public offering of 4,600,000 shares of common stock at a price of $14.00 per
share, which raised net proceeds of $57.4 million. In August 2019, we completed
a public offering of 3,570,750 shares of common stock, which included the full
exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase 465,750 shares of
common stock, at a price of $14.50 per share, which raised net proceeds of $48.3
million after deducting the underwriting discount of $3.1 million and offering
expenses of $0.4 million.

On December 20, 2019, the Company entered into an Open Market Sales Agreement
(the "ATM Agreement") with Jefferies LLC ("Jefferies") under which the Company
may offer and sell its common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to
$50.0 million from time to time through Jefferies as its sales agents. During
April 2020, we sold 511,648 shares of common stock pursuant to the ATM Agreement
for gross proceeds of $10.2 million, or $9.8 million net of commissions and
offering expenses.

In May 2020, we completed a public offering of 3,852,500 shares of common stock,
which included the full exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase
502,500 shares of common stock, at a price of $26.00 per share, which raised net
proceeds of $93.8 million after deducting the underwriting discount of $6.0
million and offering expenses of $0.3 million.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $4.5 million of outstanding borrowings and $3.0 million availability under the 2020 Amended Revolver Agreement. As of June 30, 2020, we had $42.6 million of term debt outstanding under our 2020 Amended Credit Agreement and Guaranty.



We believe that our existing cash resources and availability under our line of
credit facility will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements and fund our
operations for at least the next 12 months. If these sources are insufficient to
satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or
make additional borrowings under our existing line of credit facility or enter
new debt financing arrangements. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity
securities, our stockholders would experience dilution. Debt financing, if
available, may involve covenants restricting our operations or our ability to
incur additional debt. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may
contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders. Additional
financing may not be available at all, or may be available only in amounts or on
terms unacceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we
may be required to delay the development, commercialization and marketing of our
Precision Flow systems and Oxygen Assist Module.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Operating Activities



The net cash used in operating activities was $24.7 million in the first six
months of 2020 and consisted primarily of a net loss of $21.9 million and an
increase in operating assets of $7.9 million partially offset by $5.1 million in
non-cash charges. Non-cash charges consisted primarily of stock-based
compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense.

The net cash used in operating activities was $18.9 million in the first six
months of 2019 and consisted primarily of a net loss of $25.8 million, partially
offset by $4.9 million in non-cash charges and a decrease of $2.0 million in net
operating assets. Non-cash charges consisted primarily of stock-based
compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and provision for
inventories.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the first six months of 2020 and 2019
consisted of purchases of property and equipment of $3.8 million and $2.1
million, respectively. In addition, the net cash used in investing activities in
the first six months of 2019 included $1.6 million to acquire Solus.

Financing Activities



Net cash provided by financing activities was $105.2 million in the first six
months of 2020 and consisted of proceeds from the issuance of common stock in
connection with public and at-the-market offerings of $94.2 and $9.9 million,
respectively, borrowings of $1.0 million under our short-term line of credit,
and proceeds from common stock issuances in connection with our ESPP and stock
option exercises of $0.4 and $0.3 million, respectively, partially offset by
common stock offering costs of $0.5 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $10.5 million in the first six
months of 2019 and primarily consisted of borrowings of $10.5 million under our
credit facilities.



Indebtedness

Revolving Line of Credit

In November 2016, we entered into the Revolver Agreement with Western Alliance
Bank, which provided for $7.0 million of available borrowings. Availability
under the Revolving Facility is calculated based upon 80% of the eligible
receivables (net of pre-paid deposits, pre-billed invoices, other offsets, and
contras related to each specific account debtor).

Interest is paid monthly on the average outstanding balance at the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.75%, floating, subject to a floor of 3.5%. The interest rate was 5.25% at June 30, 2020.



On April 6, 2018, we amended and restated the Revolving Facility (the "Amended
Revolver Agreement") to extend the maturity date from September 30, 2018 to
September 30, 2020 and increase the revolving line of credit to $7.5 million. On
March 22, 2019, we amended and restated the Amended Revolver Agreement (the
"2019 Amended Revolver Agreement"), which increased the allowable permitted
indebtedness under the 2019 Amended Revolver Agreement in connection with our
credit card program from $0.3 million to $0.5 million. On July 7, 2020, we
entered into a second amendment to the Amended Revolver Agreement (as amended,
the "2020 Amended Revolver Agreement"), which, under certain circumstances,
reduces the amount of funds required to be held on deposit with Western Alliance
Bank.

The outstanding balance under the 2020 Amended Revolver Agreement was $4.5 million at June 30, 2020. The remaining amount available to borrow based on eligible receivables was $3.0 million at June 30, 2020. The 2020 Amended Revolver Agreement is secured by substantially all of our assets, excluding intellectual property.

Term Debt



On April 6, 2018, we entered into the Credit Agreement and Guaranty with
Perceptive. The Credit Agreement and Guaranty initially provided for a term loan
facility in the amount of $42.5 million, available in three tranches, of which
the first tranche of $20.0 million was drawn upon closing. This first tranche
paid off the borrowings under a former loan arrangement. A second tranche of
$10.0 million was drawn on July 20, 2018. The availability of the final tranche
of $12.5 million was dependent upon the Company achieving a minimum of
$43.2 million in revenue in 2018. On September 27, 2018, the Credit Agreement
and Guaranty was amended to remove this revenue requirement and extend the final
draw down date to March 31, 2019. We borrowed $2.0 million from this third
tranche on September 27, 2018. On March 22, 2019, we drew the remaining $10.5
million under the Amended Credit Agreement and Guaranty increasing the total
outstanding balance to $42.5 million. We also entered into a second amendment to
the Amended Credit Agreement and Guaranty increasing the allowable permitted
indebtedness in connection with our credit card program from $0.3 million to
$0.5 million. On June 16, 2020, we entered into a third amendment to the Amended
Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the "2020 Amended Credit Agreement and
Guaranty"), which amended the prepayment premium by clarifying the methodology
for calculating Perceptive's annualized internal rate of return under the term
loan.

                                       33

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The outstanding principal amount of the 2020 Amended Credit Agreement and
Guaranty accrues interest at an annual rate equal to the applicable margin of
9.06% plus the greater of (a) one-month LIBOR and (b) 1.75% per year. The term
loan is secured by substantially all our personal property including
intellectual property. All unpaid and accrued unpaid interest with respect to
each such term loan is due and payable in full on the maturity date at April 6,
2023. On the maturity date, in addition to the payment principal and accrued
interest, we will be required to make a payment of 0.5% of the total amount
borrowed under the 2020 Amended Credit Agreement and Guaranty, unless we have
already made such payment in connection with an acceleration or prepayment of
borrowings under the term loan. In the event we prepay all or part of this term
loan facility prior to the maturity date, we may be subject to additional
prepayment fees which decrease as the time to maturity decreases.

We issued warrants to Perceptive to purchase 37,693, 18,846 and 3,769 shares of
our Series D convertible preferred stock at an exercise price of $15.92 per
share in April 2018, July 2018 and September 2018, respectively. In connection
with our initial public offering in November 2018 these warrants converted to
common stock warrants at an exercise price of $15.92. Each of the warrants has a
term of 10 years. In connection with the draw down on March 22, 2019, we granted
warrants to purchase 19,789 shares of common stock. The warrants had an exercise
price of $15.92 per share, were fully vested upon issuance, were exercisable at
the option of the holder, in whole or in part, and would have expired by March
2029. On June 10, 2020, Perceptive exercised all of its outstanding warrants in
a cashless exercise transaction resulting in the issuance of 41,066 shares of
common stock to Perceptive.

We were in compliance with all debt covenants under both the 2020 Amended Revolver Agreement and 2020 Amended Credit Agreement and Guaranty at June 30, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined by applicable regulations of the SEC, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates





This management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these
financial statements requires us 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, as well as the
reported revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We monitor and
analyze these items for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes
in these estimates could occur in the future. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. Changes in estimates are reflected in
reported results for the period in which they become known. Actual results may
differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.



For further information regarding our critical accounting policies, see Note 2
"Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements and our critical accounting policies within the section entitled
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" in our 2019 Form 10-K. There have been no changes in our accounting
policies except for certain new policies or enhanced policy descriptions, which
are discussed below related to self-insurance, other lease revenues, and stock
compensation expense related to our 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Program
(ESPP").



Insurance

Effective January 1, 2020, we are self-insured for certain obligations related
to health insurance. We also purchase stop-loss insurance to protect us from
material losses. Judgments and estimates are used in determining the potential
value associated with reported claims and for events that have occurred, but
have not been reported. Our estimates consider expected claim experience and
other factors. Receivables for insurance recoveries are recorded as assets, on
an undiscounted basis. Our liabilities are based on estimates, and, while we
believe that our accruals are adequate, the ultimate liability may be
significantly different from the amounts recorded. Changes in claims experience,
our ability to settle claims or other estimates and judgments used by us could
have a material impact on the amount and timing of expense for any period.



                                       34

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lease Revenue



We enter into agreements to lease our capital equipment. For such sales, we
account for revenue under ASC 840, Leases, and assess and classify these
transactions as sales-type or operating leases based on whether the lease
transfers ownership of the equipment to the lessee by the end of the lease term.
This criterion is met in situations in which the lease agreement provides for
the transfer of title at or shortly after the end of the lease term in exchange
for the payment of a nominal fee, for example, the minimum required by statutory
regulation to transfer title. Equipment included in arrangements including
transfer of title are accounted for as sales-type leases and we recognize the
total value of the lease payments due over the lease term to revenue at the
inception of the lease. We record the current value of future lease payments
under prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated
balance sheets and these amounts totaled $1.8 and $0.9 million at June 30, 2020
and December 31, 2019, respectively. Equipment included in arrangements that do
not include the transfer of title, nor any of the capital lease criteria, are
accounted for as operating leases and revenue is recognized on a straight-line
basis as it becomes receivable monthly over the term of the lease.

We also enter into agreements involving the placement of Precision Flow capital
units for use by the customer at no upfront charge in connection with the
customer's ongoing purchase of disposable products. In these bundled
arrangements, revenue recognized for the sale of the disposables is allocated
between disposable revenue and other lease revenue based on the estimated
relative stand-alone selling prices of the individual performance obligations.

Stock-Based Compensation



We maintain an equity incentive plan to provide long-term incentives for
employees, consultants, and members of the board of directors. The plan allows
for the issuance of non-statutory and incentive stock options to employees and
non-statutory stock options to consultants and non-employee directors.

We recognize stock-based compensation expense for awards of equity instruments
to employees and non-employees based on the grant date fair value of those
awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation (ASC 718). ASC 718
requires all equity-based compensation awards, including grants of restricted
shares and stock options, to be recognized as expense in the condensed
consolidated statements of comprehensive loss based on their grant date fair
values.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value is then amortized on a
straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is
generally the vesting period. For performance-based awards, the related
compensation cost is amortized over the performance period on an accelerated
attribution basis. Compensation cost associated with performance awards is based
on fair value on the date of grant and the number of units expected to be earned
after assessing the probability that certain performance criteria will be met
and the associated targeted payout level that is forecasted will be achieved.
Cumulative adjustments are recorded each quarter to reflect estimated outcomes
of the performance-related conditions until the results are determined and
settled. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain
assumptions with respect to selected model inputs, including the expected life
(weighted average period of time that the options granted are expected to be
outstanding), the volatility of our common stock and an assumed risk-free
interest rate. Expected volatility is calculated based on historical volatility
of a group of publicly traded companies that we consider a peer group. The
expected life is estimated using the simplified method for "plain vanilla"
options. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury rates with a
remaining term that approximates the expected life assumed at the date of grant.
No dividend yield is assumed as we do not pay, and do not expect to pay,
dividends on our common stock. We estimate forfeitures based on historical
experience with pre-vested forfeitures. To the extent actual forfeitures differ
from the estimate, the difference is recorded to compensation expense in the
period of the forfeiture.

We recognize stock-based expense for shares issued pursuant to our ESPP on a
straight-line basis over the related offering period. We estimate the fair value
of shares to be issued under the ESPP based on a combination of options valued
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected life is determined
based on the contractual term. Expected volatility, dividend yield and
forfeiture rates are estimated in a manner similar to option grants described
above.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements



A discussion of recent accounting pronouncements is included in Note 2 to our
condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.

JOBS Act

As a company with (i) less than $1.07 billion in revenue during our last fiscal
year (ii) a market value of our common stock of less than $700.0 million as of
our most recently completed second quarter and (iii) less than $1.0 billion of
non-convertible debt over a three-year period, we qualify as an "emerging growth
company," as defined in the JOBS Act, as of the date of our last annual
evaluation which occurred on December 31, 2019. An emerging growth company may
take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable
to public companies. We expect we will no longer qualify as an emerging growth
company as of December 31, 2020 and, at that time, will begin to adopt
accounting pronouncements at dates applicable to public companies.
