Company Overview

We design, manufacture and market the ViewRay MRIdian®. The MRIdian is an
innovative system that integrates high quality radiation therapy with
simultaneous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). There are two generations of the
MRIdian: the first generation MRIdian with Cobalt-60 based radiation beams and
the second generation MRIdian Linac, with more advanced linear accelerator or
'linac' based radiation beams.

The MRIdian combines MRI and external-beam radiation therapy to simultaneously
image and treat cancer patients. MRI is a broadly used imaging tool that has the
ability to clearly differentiate between types of soft tissue. In contrast,
X-ray or computed tomography (CT), the most commonly used imaging technologies
in radiation therapy today, are often unable to distinguish soft tissues such as
the tumor and critical organs. MRIdian integrates MRI technology, radiation
delivery and our proprietary software to clearly See the soft tissues, Shape the
dose to accommodate for changes in anatomy and Strike the target precisely using
real-time targeting throughout the treatment. The MRIdian system is Sized to fit
into standard radiation therapy vaults without having to remove ceiling or
walls. These capabilities allow MRIdian to deliver radiation to the tumor
accurately, while reducing the radiation amount delivered to nearby healthy
tissue, as compared to other radiation therapy treatments currently available.
We believe this will lead to improved patient outcomes and reduced
treatment-related side effects.

Both generations of the MRIdian have received 510(k) marketing clearance from the FDA and permission to affix the CE mark.



   •  We received initial 510(k) marketing clearance from the FDA for our
      treatment planning and delivery software in January 2011.


                                       21

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

• We received 510(k) marketing clearance for MRIdian, with Cobalt-60 as the

radiation source, in May 2012. We received permission to affix the CE mark

to MRIdian with Cobalt-60 in November 2014, allowing MRIdian with Cobalt-60

to be sold within the European Economic Area, or EEA.

• In August 2016, we received regulatory approval from the Japanese Ministry

of Health, Labor and Welfare to market MRIdian with Cobalt-60 in Japan as

well as from the China Food and Drug Administration to market MRIdian with

Cobalt-60 in China.

• In September 2016, we received the CE mark for the MRIdian Linac (with a

linear accelerator as the radiation source) in the EEA.

• In February 2017, we received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to market


      MRIdian Linac in the United States.


   •  In June 2017, we received 510(k) clearance to market RayZR™, our

high-resolution beam-shaping multi-leaf collimator. We also received MRIdian

Linac regulatory approval in Taiwan and Canada in August 2017, and in Israel

in November 2017. In March 2018, we received regulatory approval from the

Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare to market MRIdian Linac in

Japan.

• In February 2019, we received 510(k) clearance for advancements in MRI, 8

frames per second cine, and Functional imaging (T1/T2/DWI) and High-Speed

MLC. In December 2019, we received the CE mark for these advancements in the

EEA.

• We are also seeking required MRIdian Linac approvals in other countries.




MRIdian is the first radiation therapy solution that enables simultaneous
radiation treatment delivery and real-time MRI imaging of a patient's internal
anatomy. It generates high-quality images that differentiate between the
targeted tumor, surrounding soft tissue and nearby critical organs. MRIdian also
records the level of radiation dose that the treatment area has received,
enabling physicians to adapt the prescription between treatments, as needed. We
believe this improved visualization and accurate dose recording will enable
better treatment, improve patient outcomes and reduce side effects. Key benefits
to users and patients include: improved imaging and patient alignment; the
ability to adapt the patient's radiation treatments to changes while the patient
is still on the treatment table, or "on-table adaptive treatment planning";
MRI-based motion management; and an accurate recording of the delivered
radiation dose. Physicians have already used MRIdian to treat a broad spectrum
of radiation therapy patients with more than 45 different types of cancer, as
well as patients for whom radiation therapy was previously not an option.

At June 30, 2020, a total of 38 MRIdian systems, four MRIdian with Cobalt-60 systems and 34 MRIdian Linac systems, are in operation at 35 customer sites worldwide (15 in the United States and 20 outside the United States). In addition, seven MRIdian Linacs have been delivered to customers that are in varying stages of deployment.



We currently market MRIdian through a direct sales force in the United States.
In the rest of the world, we market MRIdian through a hybrid model of both a
direct sales force and distribution network. We market MRIdian to a broad range
of worldwide customers, including university research and teaching hospitals,
community hospitals, private practices, government institutions and freestanding
cancer centers. As with the traditional linac market, our sales and revenue
cycles vary based on the particular customer and can be lengthy, sometimes
lasting up to 18 to 24 months (or more) from initial customer contact to order
contract execution. Following execution of an order contract, it generally takes
nine to 15 months for a customer to customize an existing facility or construct
a new vault. Upon the commencement of installation at a customer's facility, it
typically takes approximately 45 to 90 days for us to install MRIdian and
perform on-site testing of the system, including the completion of acceptance
test procedures.

We generated total revenue of $14.2 million and $30.2 million, and had net losses of $26.2 million and $30.8 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We generated total revenue of $28.5 million and $50.5 million, and net losses of $53.7 and $64.2 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future, as we:

• navigate our business activities through the impacts of the coronavirus


        pandemic;


  • continue our research and development efforts;

• seek regulatory approval for MRIdian in certain foreign countries; and

• operate as a public company.




Accordingly, we may seek to fund our operations through public or private
equity, debt financings or other sources. However, we may be unable to raise
additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable
terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such other
arrangements as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial
condition and our ability to develop enhancements to and integrate new
technologies into MR Image-Guided radiation therapy systems.

Impact of the Coronavirus Disease

The coronavirus pandemic, the resulting global recession and its follow-on effects have impacted and will continue to impact business activity across industries worldwide, including ViewRay.


                                       22

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to pandemic-related factors like the delays in service from our global
supply chain partners and restrictions imposed by government agencies and our
customers in response to the spread of coronavirus, we have experienced delays
in installation of systems in the United States, Asia and Europe. Similarly, our
ability to conduct commercial efforts with our customers has been and is likely
to continue to be disrupted as customers have in most cases suspended in-person
sales calls and turned their focus to dealing with the impact of the coronavirus
on their operations. Should the global recession persist as a result of the
impact of coronavirus, our ability to conduct our business and access capital
markets will be negatively impacted; and capital equipment sales, which makes up
the majority of our revenue, may take longer than other areas of the economy in
a recovery, which may have a material impact on our business. The coronavirus
pandemic continues to develop rapidly, and its continued global economic impact
may negatively impact our operations in areas that we are not aware of
currently.

In the first quarter of 2020, we initiated a contingency plan with the goal to
reduce our cash usage by approximately $30 million during the remainder of 2020,
largely through reductions in operating expense, working capital and
company-wide salary reductions. Regarding company-wide salary reductions, our
executive leadership team, including our board of directors, reduced their
salaries by as much as 30%, and reductions were then cascaded down at lesser
rates through the organization. In late June 2020, we finalized and communicated
a plan to reduce our workforce by approximately 20%. The plan was implemented on
July 6, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we remain on track with our contingency plan
to reduce cash usage by approximately $30 million.

New Orders and Backlog



New orders are defined as the sum of gross product orders, representing MRIdian
contract price, recorded in backlog during the period. Backlog is the
accumulation of all orders for which revenue has not been recognized and which
we consider valid. Backlog includes customer deposits or letters of credit,
except when the sale is to a customer where a deposit is not deemed necessary or
customary. Deposits received are recorded in a customer deposit liability
account on the balance sheet. Orders may be revised or cancelled according to
their terms or upon mutual agreement between the parties. Therefore, it is
difficult to predict with certainty the amount of backlog that will ultimately
result in revenue. The determination of backlog includes objective and
subjective judgment about the likelihood of an order contract becoming revenue.
We perform a quarterly review of backlog to verify that outstanding orders in
backlog remain valid, and based upon this review, orders that are no longer
expected to result in revenue are removed from backlog. Among other criteria to
consider for a transaction to be in backlog, we must possess both an outstanding
and effective written agreement for the delivery of a MRIdian signed by a
customer with a minimum customer deposit or a letter of credit requirement
except when the sale is to a customer where a deposit is not deemed necessary or
customary (i.e. sale to a government entity, a large hospital, group of
hospitals or cancer care group that has sufficient credit, sales via tender
awards, or indirect channel sales that have signed contracts with
end-customers). We decide whether to remove or add back an order from or to our
backlog by evaluating the following criteria: changes in customer or distributor
plans or financial conditions; the customer's or distributor's continued intent
and ability to fulfill the order contract; changes to regulatory requirements;
the status of regulatory approval required in the customer's jurisdiction, if
any; the length of time the order has been on our backlog; and other reasons for
potential cancellation of order contracts.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we received eight new orders for MRIdian systems, totaling $47.2 million. At June 30, 2020, we had total backlog of $232.2 million.

Components of Statements of Operations

Revenue



Product Revenue. Product revenue consists of revenue recognized from sales of
MRIdian systems, as well as optional components, such as additional planning
workstations and body coils.

Following execution of an order contract, it generally takes nine to 15 months
for a customer to customize an existing facility or construct a new vault for
the purchased system. Upon the commencement of installation at a customer's
facility, it typically takes approximately 45 to 90 days to complete the
installation and on-site testing of the system, including the completion of
customer test procedures. On-site training can take up to multiple weeks and can
be conducted concurrently with installation and acceptance testing. Order
contracts generally include customer deposits upon execution of the agreement,
and in certain cases, additional amounts due at shipment or commencement of
installation, and final payment due generally upon customer acceptance.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2019, for new contracts in which control of
the system transfers upon delivery and inspection, the Company recognizes
revenue for the system at the point in time when delivery and inspection has
occurred. For these same contracts, the Company recognizes installation revenue
over a period of time as control of the installation services are transferred.
For all contracts in which control continues to transfer upon post-installation
customer acceptance, revenue for the system and installation will continue to be
recognized upon customer acceptance. For sales of MRIdian systems for which we
are not responsible for installation, revenue is recognized when the entire
system is delivered, which is when the control of the system is transferred to
the customer.

Service Revenue. Our contracts typically include service warranty at no
additional costs for one year. In addition, we offer multi-year,
post-installation maintenance and support contracts that provide various levels
of service support, which enables our customers to select the level of on-going
support services, including parts and labor, which they require. These
post-installation contracts are for a

                                       23

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
period of one to five years and provide services ranging from on-site parts and
labor, and preventative maintenance to labor only with a longer response time.
We also offer technology upgrades to our MRIdian systems, when and if available,
for an additional fee. Service revenue is recognized ratably over the term
during which the contracted services are provided.

Distribution Rights Revenue.  In December 2014, we entered into a distribution
agreement with Itochu Corporation, or Itochu, pursuant to which we appointed
Itochu as our exclusive distributor for the promotion, sale and delivery of
MRIdian products within Japan. As consideration for the exclusive distribution
rights granted, we received $4.0 million, which was recorded as deferred revenue
and since August 2016, distribution rights revenue has been recognized ratably
over the remaining term of the distribution agreement, which expires in December
2024. A time-elapsed method is used to measure progress because the control is
transferred evenly over the contractual period.

Cost of Revenue



Product Cost of Revenue. Product cost of revenue primarily consists of the cost
of materials, installation and services associated with the manufacturing and
installation of MRIdian systems, and royalty payments to the University of
Florida Research Foundation. Product cost of revenue also includes lower of cost
or net realizable value inventory, or LCNRV, adjustments if the carrying value
of the inventory is greater than its net realizable value. We recorded LCNRV
charges of $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There
was no LCNRV charge for the three or six months ended June 30, 2019.

We expect our materials, installation and service costs to decrease as we continue to scale our operations, improve product designs and work with our third-party suppliers to lower costs.



Service Cost of Revenue. Service cost of revenue is comprised primarily of
personnel costs, training and travel expenses to service and perform maintenance
on installed MRIdian systems. Service cost of revenue also includes the costs of
replacement parts under maintenance and support contracts.

Operating Expenses



Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of
compensation and related costs for personnel, including stock-based
compensation, employee benefits and travel expenses. Other significant research
and development costs arise from third-party consulting services, laboratory
supplies, research materials, medical equipment, computer equipment and licensed
technology, and related depreciation and amortization. We expense research and
development costs as incurred. We will continue to invest in improving MRIdian
and developing new technologies.

Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of
compensation and related costs for our direct sales force, sales management, and
marketing and customer support personnel, and include stock-based compensation,
employee benefits and travel expenses. Selling and marketing expenses also
include costs related to trade shows and marketing programs. We expense selling
and marketing costs as incurred.

General and Administrative. Our general and administrative expenses consist
primarily of compensation and related costs for our operations, finance, human
resources, regulatory, and other administrative personnel, and include
stock-based compensation, employee benefits and travel expenses. In addition,
general and administrative expenses include third-party consulting, legal,
audit, accounting services, quality and regulatory functions and facilities
costs, and gain or loss on the disposal of property and equipment.

Interest Income

Interest income consists primarily of interest income received on our cash and cash equivalents.



Interest Expense

Interest expense consists primarily of interest and amortization related to our SVB Term Loan.



Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense), net consists primarily of changes in the fair value of
the 2017 and 2016 Placement Warrants and foreign currency exchange gains and
losses.

The outstanding 2017 and 2016 Placement Warrants are re-measured to fair value at each balance sheet date with the corresponding gain or loss from the adjustment recorded as a component of other income (expense), net.

Total revenue         $       14,224       $       30,167     $ (15,943 )




Total revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $15.9
million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was
primarily due to a $17.3 million decrease in product revenue and offset by a
$1.3 million increase in service revenue during the three months ended June 30,
2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Product Revenue. Product revenue decreased by $17.3 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The
decrease was primarily due to the revenue recognized on three fewer MRIdian
Linac systems in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 2019.

Service Revenue. Service revenue increased by $1.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to the increase in installed base. The $1.3 million increase includes a $0.5 million release of deferred revenue that was related to a service contract.

Total cost of revenue   $       15,266       $       26,921     $ (11,655 )


Product Cost of Revenue. Product cost of revenue decreased by $10.1 million
during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended
June 30, 2019. The decrease was attributable to three fewer MRIdian Linac
systems recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the
three months ended June 30, 2019.

Service Cost of Revenue. Service cost of revenue decreased by $1.6 million
during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended
June 30, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in cost of service-related inventory
parts and coronavirus related travel and payroll reductions for our service
personnel.

Total operating expenses     $       24,531       $       29,524     $ (4,993 )


Research and Development. Research and development expenses during the three
months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $0.3 million compared to the three
months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to an $0.4
million decrease in travel expense attributable to coronavirus related travel
reductions for our research and development workforce.

Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses during the three months
ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $4.6 million compared to the three months ended
June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $2.4 million
decrease in personnel expense in the form of sales related compensation, a $0.9
million decrease in travel expense primarily driven by coronavirus related
reduction in travel for our sales and marketing workforce, and a $0.8 million
decrease in marketing expense primarily driven by the postponement or
cancellation of clinical conferences.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses during the three
months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $0.2 million compared to the three
months ended June 30, 2019. The slight decrease was primarily attributable to a
$0.6 million decrease in consulting and other professional service expense and a
$0.5 million decrease in travel expense primarily driven by coronavirus related
reduction in travel for our general and administrative workforce. These
decreases were offset by a $0.7 million increase in personnel expense and a $0.3
million increase in facilities expense. The increase in personnel expense is
primarily driven by an increase in severance and stock-based compensation
expense, offset by reductions in other personnel charges related to our
company-wide salary reductions.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019





Revenue



                          Six Months Ended June 30,
                          2020                2019           Change
                                      (in thousands)
Product               $      22,085       $      46,779     $ (24,694 )
Service                       6,151               3,434         2,717
Distribution rights             238                 238             -
Total revenue         $      28,474       $      50,451     $ (21,977 )




Total revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $22.0
million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was
primarily due to a $24.7 million decrease in product revenue, offset by a $2.7
million increase in service revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Product Revenue. Product revenue decreased by $24.7 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The
decrease was primarily due to the revenue recognized on four fewer MRIdian Linac
systems in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months
ended June 30, 2019. In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, the
Company recognized $0.9 million in revenue from performance obligations
satisfied in 2018.

Service Revenue. Service revenue increased by $2.7 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to the
increase in installed base. The $2.7 million increase includes a $0.5 million
release of deferred revenue that was related to a service contract.



Cost of Revenue



                            Six Months Ended June 30,

Total cost of revenue   $      31,623       $      52,569     $ (20,946 )




Product Cost of Revenue. Product cost of revenue decreased by $19.0 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June
30, 2019. Product cost of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was
impacted by cost of revenue recognized on four fewer MRIdian Linac systems in
the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
2019. In addition, total cost of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2019
was impacted by approximately $7.0 million of charges, primarily driven by
higher than anticipated installation costs related to historical upgrade
commitments. The $7.0 million included $5.6 million of one-time charges and $1.4
million of expenses.

Service Cost of Revenue. Service cost of revenue decreased by $1.9 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June
30, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in cost of service-related inventory parts
and coronavirus related travel and payroll reductions for our service personnel.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses during the six
months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $1.1 million, compared to the six months
ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to a $1.2 million
increase in personnel expense.

Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses during the six months
ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $3.6 million, compared to the six months ended
June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.5 million
decrease in personnel expense in the form of sales related compensation, a $0.9
million decrease in travel expense primarily driven by coronavirus related
reductions in travel for our sales and marketing workforce, a $0.6 million
decrease in marketing expense primarily driven by the postponement or
cancellation of clinical conferences, and a $0.4 million decrease in
professional services.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses during the six
months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $0.5 million, compared to the six months
ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily driven by a $0.9 million
increase in personnel expense, a $0.3 million increase in depreciation and
amortization expense, and a $0.2 million increase in facilities expense. These
increases were partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in travel expense
attributable to coronavirus related travel reductions for our general and
administrative workforce. The increase in personnel expense is primarily driven
by an increase in severance and stock-based compensation expense, offset by
reductions in other personnel charges related to our company-wide salary
reductions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



Since our inception in 2004, we have incurred significant net losses and
negative cash flows from operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2020
and 2019, we had net losses of $53.7 million and $64.2 million, respectively. At
June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of
$572.9 million and $519.2 million, respectively.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of
$179.5 million and $226.8 million, respectively. To date, we have financed our
operations principally through offerings of our capital stock, issuances of
warrants, issuances of convertible promissory notes, use of term loans and
receipts of customer deposits for new orders and payments from customers for
systems installed and delivered. We may, from time to time, seek to raise
capital through a variety of sources, including the public equity market,
private equity financing, and public or private debt. In December 2019, we
raised aggregate gross proceeds of $149.6 million via a public offering, in
which we sold approximately 47.8 million shares of our common stock at a price
of $3.13 per share. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents,
together with proceeds from the sales of MRIdian systems, will enable us to
conduct our planned operations for at least the next 12 months.

However, the coronavirus pandemic, the resulting recession and its follow-on
effects are impacting and will continue to impact our business activities. For
further discussion, see the section titled "Impact of the Coronavirus Disease"
included above. In the first quarter of 2020, we initiated a contingency plan
with the goal to reduce our cash usage by approximately $30 million during the
remainder of 2020, largely through reductions in operating expense, working
capital and company-wide salary reductions. Regarding company-wide salary
reductions, our executive leadership team, including our board of directors,
reduced their salaries by as much as 30%, and reductions were then cascaded down
at lesser rates through the organization. In late June 2020, we finalized and
communicated a plan to reduce our workforce by approximately 20%. The plan was
implemented on July 6, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we remain on track with our
contingency plan to reduce cash usage by approximately $30 million.

In January 2019, we filed a registration statement with the SEC which covers the
offering, issuance and sale of up to a maximum aggregate offering price of
$250.0 million of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants,
purchase contracts and/or units, including up to $100.0 million of our common
shares pursuant to our at-the-market offering program with FBR. The shares in
the December 2019 Public Offering of Common stock were sold pursuant to the
January 2019 registration statement and did not impact the $100.0 million of our
common shares pursuant to our at-the-market offering program with FBR.

We could potentially use our available financial resources sooner than we
currently expect, and we may incur additional indebtedness to meet future
operating needs. Adequate additional funding may not be available to us on
acceptable terms or at all. In addition, although we anticipate being able to
obtain additional financing, we may be unable to do so. Our failure to raise
capital as and when needed could have significant negative consequences for our
business, financial condition and results of operations. Our future capital
requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors,
including those set forth in the section titled "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item
1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019
and in Part II, Item 1A of this report.

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented (in
thousands):

(4,353 ) Cash (used in) provided by financing activities $ (500 ) $ 8,035




Operating Activities

We have historically experienced cash outflows as we developed MRIdian with
Cobalt-60 and MRIdian Linac and expanded our business. Our primary source of
cash flow from operating activities is cash receipts from customers including
sales of MRIdian systems and, to a lesser extent, up-front payments from
customers. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are amounts due to
vendors for purchased components and employee-related expenditures.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, cash used in operating activities was
$45.0 million, resulting from our net loss of $53.7 million, a $1.6 million net
decrease in our operating assets and liabilities, and offset by aggregate
non-cash charges of $10.3 million.

• Non-cash charges included $11.3 million of stock-based compensation expense,

$3.0 million of depreciation and amortization expense, a $3.3 million gain

related to the change in fair value of the 2017 and 2016 Placement Warrants,


      and $1.3 million for the release of historical upgrade commitments.




                                       29

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

• The net change in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily a

result of changes in accounts payable, accounts receivable, deferred cost of

revenue and prepaid expenses and other assets, which were partially offset

by changes in customer deposits and deferred revenue and inventory. Accounts

payable decreased $8.5 million due to timing of payments. Accounts

receivable increased $5.3 million resulting from timing of billings

milestones and collections. Deferred cost of revenue increased $4.4 million.


      Prepaid expenses and other assets increased $2.3 million mainly due to
      timing of prepayments. The net change in our operating assets and
      liabilities was partially offset by an increase in customer deposits and
      deferred revenue of $12.2 million mainly due to timing of revenue
      recognition milestones and a $6.7 million decrease in inventory.


During the six months ended June 30, 2019, cash used in operating activities was
$49.6 million, as a result of our net loss of $64.2 million, a $9.5 million net
change in our operating assets and liabilities, and offset by aggregate non-cash
charges of $24.1 million.

• Non-cash charges included $9.5 million of stock-based compensation expense,

$2.0 million of depreciation and amortization expense, a $6.9 million loss

related to the change in fair value of the 2017 and 2016 Placement Warrants,


      and $5.5 million for historical upgrade commitments.



• The net change in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily a

result of changes in customer deposits and deferred revenue and inventory,

which was partially offset by changes in accounts payable, accrued expenses

and other liabilities, deposits on purchased inventory and accounts

receivable. Customer deposits and deferred revenue decreased $16.7 million

as a result of revenue recognized on eight units of MRIdian system sales and

one unit of system upgrade. Inventory increased $8.8 million with the

previous anticipation of upcoming shipments and installations of MRIdian

systems. The net change in our operating assets and liabilities was

partially offset by an accounts payable increase of $8.3 million resulting

from the build of inventory and the timing of payments. Accrued expenses and

other liabilities increased $3.8 million mainly due to an increase in

payroll and related benefits and accrued travel costs. Deposits on purchased

inventory decreased $2.4 million. Accounts receivable decreased $1.4 million

resulting from the timing of collections.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 of $1.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively, resulted from capital expenditures to purchase property and equipment.

Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, financing activities used $0.5 million in cash, consisting primarily of $0.5 million of stock offering costs.



During the six months ended June 30, 2019, financing activities provided $8.0
million in cash, consisting primarily of $8.2 million from the exercise of stock
options.

SVB Term Loan

In December 2018, we entered into a term loan agreement, or the SVB Term Loan,
with Silicon Valley Bank, for a principal amount of $56.0 million. The SVB Term
Loan has a maturity date of December 1, 2023 and bears interest at a rate of
6.30% per annum to be paid monthly over the term of the loan. Beginning on
December 1, 2020 (or June 1, 2021, if the Company achieves a trailing
twelve-month revenue of at least $215.0 million from January 1, 2019 to December
1, 2020 and elects to apply such later date), the Company will make thirty-six
equal monthly payments of principal (or thirty equal payments, if the Company so
elects). In addition, upon repayment of the SVB Term Loan in full, the Company
will make a final payment equal to 3.15% of the original aggregate principal
amount of the SVB Term Loan.

On December 31, 2019, we entered into the First Amendment (the Amendment) to the
SVB Term Loan. The Amendment, among other things, amended the SVB Term Loan to
(i) suspend testing of the minimum revenue financial covenant for the fiscal
quarter ended December 31, 2019, (ii) provide for the minimum trailing
twelve-month revenue thresholds under the minimum revenue financial covenant for
periods ending on the last day of fiscal quarters in fiscal years subsequent to
2020 to be determined annually at the greater of (a) a 25% cushion to revenue
forecasts provided by the Company to SVB and (b) 10% year-over-year annual
growth, unless otherwise agreed, (iii) increase the minimum liquidity ratio
financial covenant from 1.50:1.00 to 1.75:1.00 and (iv) increase the prepayment
premium from 1.00% to 2.00% for amounts prepaid under the SVB Term Loan prior to
the maturity date thereof, subject to certain exceptions.

The SVB Term Loan is secured by substantially all assets of the Company, except that the collateral does not include any intellectual property held by the Company, provided, however, the collateral does include all accounts and proceeds of such intellectual property.



The SVB Term Loan contains customary representations and warranties and
customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its
subsidiaries, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness,
liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, prepayment of other indebtedness,
dividends and other distributions and transactions with affiliates. The SVB Term
Loan also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a
minimum cash balance in accounts maintained at Silicon Valley Bank or one of its
affiliates or else comply with a liquidity ratio and/or a minimum revenue
target.

                                       30

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

We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the SVB Term Loan at June 30, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Additionally, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2020.

For our contractual obligations that are expected to have an effect on our liquidity and cash flow, see section "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies" in the condensed consolidated financial statements and "Note 5 - Debt" in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with
U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses. We evaluate our
estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates and assumptions are
based on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to
be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from
these estimates.

There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies during the six
months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the critical accounting policies
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12,
2020. We believe that the accounting policies discussed in that Annual Report
are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these
