The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations, as well as other sections in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
should be read together with the unaudited interim condensed financial
statements and related notes included elsewhere in Item 1 of Part I of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the audited consolidated financial
statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 30,
2022.



CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict
all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the
extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results
to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we
may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future
events and trends discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur
and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated
or implied in the forward-looking statements.



You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future
events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements
may not be achieved or occur. Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee
future results, performance, or achievements. We undertake no obligation to
update any of these forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to conform these statements to actual
results or revised expectations, except as required by law.



You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents that we
reference herein with the understanding that our actual future results,
performance, and events and circumstances may be materially different from

what
we expect.



Overview


Augmedix was incorporated in 2013 and launched its commercial real-time, remote documentation services in 2014.

Augmedix, Inc. (the "Company" or "Augmedix") (formerly known as Malo Holdings
Corporation) provides virtual medical documentation services for clinicians
through software compatible with off-the-shelf, mobile client devices
(smartphones or Google Glass) that enables clinicians to connect to the Augmedix
Service Platform ("ASP"). Through the ASP, clinicians either subscribe to the
Augmedix Live service or the Notes service. Clinicians connect in real time to
medical documentation specialists ("MDSs"), if subscribed to Augmedix's Live
service. If subscribed to Augmedix's Notes service, the clinician-patient's
ambient interaction is recorded and processed using ASR (auto speech
recognition) then reviewed and edited by Augmedix's MDSs. For both services, the
relevant elements of the clinician-patient interaction are extracted and
compiled into a comprehensive and accurate medical note that is then uploaded
into the patient's chart contained within the electronic health record system,
which is a third-party software licensed by the healthcare clinic or system

to
manage patient charts.



Patient care in the U.S. is provided in ambulatory or clinical environments and
hospitals. We focus most of our efforts in the ambulatory/clinical segment of
the patient care market, although we recently started offering services into the
emergency department of hospitals. Roughly 75% of the physicians who subscribe
to our service are employed directly by, or are affiliated with, a healthcare
enterprise. The remaining 25% consists of small practices and individual
practitioners.



We have generated in excess of four million medical notes since we began
offering our service and are currently delivering approximately 40,000 notes to
our customers each week. We estimate that our solution saves doctors two to
three hours each day which is time that they can redeploy to see more patients
or improve their work-life balance. We believe the benefits to healthcare
enterprises are increased productivity and higher clinician and patient
satisfaction.



                                       20





The current COVID-19 pandemic and resulting safety protocols have prompted a
significant shift towards delivering health services remotely via telemedicine.
Our technology platform was designed to enable real time, two-way communication
between remotely-located participants. As such, we were able to continue to
provide uninterrupted service to our customers. We believe telemedicine will
remain an important part of health services delivery even after the end of

the
COVID-19 pandemic.



We provide service from ten MDS Operations Centers across four countries - the
US, Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka. There are six centers in India and one
center in Sri Lanka that are owned and operated by five independent third
parties (the "Vendors"), while the two centers in the US and Bangladesh are
wholly-owned and operated by us, additionally we have begun our own operations
in India.



The COVID-19 pandemic has also required modifications to how we deliver our
service. While our general business model is to provide MDS service from central
operating centers, local shelter in place orders have required us to shift to
work-from-home for all employees and contracted employees. We will continue our
work from home model until local conditions remove workplace restrictions and
employees can safely work from our central operations centers. We instituted
additional system controls to ensure compliance with our privacy practices.



Our technology vision is to automate as much of the medical note creation
process as possible by applying intelligent automation. While the unstructured
nature of a conversation between physician and patient places inherent
limitations on how much note creation can ultimately be automated, we believe
automation, even if partial, could generate significant benefits including
improved operating efficiencies, higher-quality medical notes and a more uniform
level of note quality.



Key metrics


We regularly review the following key metrics to measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections, make strategic business decisions and assess working capital needs.





                                            Three Months Ended       Six Months Ended

Average clinicians in service headcount         1,040        700       1,000        665
Average annual revenue per clinician      $    28,000   $ 29,100   $  28,400   $ 29,500
Dollar-based net revenue retention                131 %      129 %       132 %      120 %






Average Clinicians in Service Headcount: We define a clinician in service as an
individual doctor, nurse practitioner or other healthcare professional using our
services. We average the month end number of clinicians in service for all
months in the measurement period and the number of clinicians in service at the
end of the month immediately preceding the measurement period. We believe growth
in the average number of clinicians in service is a key indicator of the
performance of our business as it demonstrates our ability to penetrate the
market and grow our business. Most of our customer contracts contain minimum
service levels that range from a low of 60 hours per month to a high of 200
hours per month. Higher hours per month equate to higher revenue per clinician.
The average number of clinicians in service grew 49% to 1,040 from 700 for the
three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and grew 50% to 1,000
from 665 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.



Average Annual Revenue Per Clinician: Average revenue per clinician is
determined as total revenue, excluding Data Services revenue, recognized during
the period presented divided by the average number of clinicians in service
during that same period. Using the number of clinicians in service at the end of
each month, we derive an average number of clinicians in service for the periods
presented. The average annual revenue per clinician will vary based upon minimum
hours of service requested by clinicians, pricing, and our product mix. The
average annual revenue per clinician decreased to $28,000 in the three months
ended June 30, 2022, down 4% from $29,100 in the three months ended June 30,
2021 due to an increase in the mix of Notes clinicians. Revenue from Notes
clinicians is lower than revenue from Live clinicians. The average annual
revenue per clinician decreased to $28,400 in the six months ended June 30,
2022, down 4% from $29,500 in the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to an
increase in mix in Notes clinicians in this six month period versus a year

ago.



                                       21





Dollar-Based Net Revenue Retention: We define a "Health Enterprise" as a company
or network of doctors that has at least 50 clinicians currently employed or
affiliated that could utilize our services. Dollar-based net revenue retention
is determined as the revenue from Health Enterprises as of twelve months prior
to such period end as compared to revenue from these same Health Enterprises as
of the current period end, or current period revenue. Current period revenue
includes any expansion or new products and is net of contraction or churn over
the trailing twelve months but excludes revenue from new Health Enterprises in
the current period. We believe growth in dollar-based net revenue retention is a
key indicator of the performance of our business as it demonstrates our ability
to increase revenue across our existing customer base through expansion of users
and products, as well as our ability to retain existing customers. Our annual
dollar-based net revenue retention increased to 131% in three months ended June
30, 2022 compared to 129% in the three months ended June 30, 2021. Growth from
existing clients has historically represented a majority of our total revenue
growth. Our annual dollar-based net revenue retention increased to 132% in six
months ended June 30, 2022 up from 120% in six months ended June 30, 2021.

Components of Results of Operations





Revenues



Our revenues primarily consist of service fees we charge customers to subscribe
to our remote medical documentation and clinical support solutions. We generate
subscription fees pursuant to contracts that typically have initial terms of one
year, automatically renew after the initial term and are subject to a 90-day
cancellation notice after the initial one year term. Customer attrition, as it
pertains to our Health Enterprise clients is infrequent. In fiscal 2021, 2019,
2018, and 2017, we did not lose any of our Health Enterprise clients nor have we
lost any year to date in 2022. We lost three Health Enterprise clients in fiscal
2020, with the COVID-19 pandemic being the main contributing factor for these
losses, but we also won three new Health Enterprise clients during the year.
Subscription revenue is driven primarily by the number of clinicians using our
services, the minimum number of hours contracted per month, and the contracted
monthly price. We typically invoice customers one to three months in advance for
subscriptions to our services. For customers who use more than the minimum
number of monthly hours, we have the ability to bill for the additional hours
utilized at a prescribed contractual price. We also perform upfront
implementation services such as ensuring adequate Wi-Fi capability of the
clinician's facilities, shipping devices and accessories to the clinician,
testing, selecting and assigning MDSs, obtaining EHR credentials for the MDSs,
and clinician orientation. Revenues associated with implementation efforts,
which are less than 1% of total revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2022,
are deferred until we go live with our service and then recognized ratably over
the initial term of the contract.



Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit





Cost of Revenues. Our cost of revenues primarily consists of the cost of the
MDSs, some of whom are employees of our Vendors and some of whom are our
employees, their direct supervisors, and clinician and technical support. Cost
of revenues also consists of infrastructure costs to operate our SaaS-based
platform such as hosting fees and fees paid to various third-party partners for
access to their technology, plus hardware depreciation and cost of shipping for
the devices and accessories we provide to our clinicians.



Gross Profit. Our gross profit is calculated by subtracting our cost of revenues
from revenues. Gross margin is expressed as a percentage of total revenues. Our
gross profit may fluctuate from period to period as revenues fluctuate, and as a
result of the mix of MDS centers from which service is provided, operational
efficiencies regarding the relationship between the number of MDSs and
clinicians, product mix, and changes to our technology expenses and customer
support.



Our gross profit varies by MDS center. We plan to focus on and grow the
operations of the MDS centers with the best quality and highest gross margin. We
intend to continue to invest additional resources in our platform
infrastructure. We will also continue to invest in technology innovation, such
as Notebuilder, to reduce the level of effort required by MDSs. We expect these
optimization efforts and our investment in technology to expand the efficiency
and capability of our platform, enabling us to improve our gross margin over
time. The level and timing of investment in these areas, plus the mix of MDS
centers, could affect our cost of revenues in the future. When the Bangladesh
MDSs fully return to the office it will create some gross margin headwinds as we
will incur higher transportation and food costs.



                                       22




General and Administrative Expenses





General and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee compensation
costs for operations management, finance, accounting, information technology,
compliance, legal, and human resources personnel, and our business support team
in Bangladesh. In addition, general and administrative expenses include
non-personnel costs, such as facilities, legal, accounting, insurance, and other
professional fees, as well as other supporting corporate expenses not allocated
to other departments. We expect our general and administrative expenses will
increase in absolute dollars as our business grows, but we expect general and
administrative expenses to decrease as a percent of revenues in the coming

years.



Sales and Marketing Expenses



Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee compensation costs
related to sales and marketing, including salaries, benefits, commissions,
bonuses, and stock-based compensation, costs of general marketing activities and
promotional activities, travel-related expenses, and allocated overhead. Sales
and marketing expenses also include costs for advertising and other marketing
activities. Advertising is expensed as incurred. We expect our sales and
marketing expenses will increase in absolute dollars as we expand our sales

and
marketing efforts.


Research and Development Expenses





Research and development expenses consist of costs for the design, development,
testing, and enhancement of our products and services and are generally expensed
as incurred. These costs consist primarily of personnel costs, including
salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation for our development
personnel. Research and development expenses also include direct MDS training
costs, product management, third-party partner fees, and third-party consulting
fees. We expect our research and development expenses will increase in absolute
dollars as our business grows, but R&D expenses are expected to decrease as a
percent of revenues in the coming years.



Interest Expense, net



Interest expense, net consists primarily of the interest incurred on our debt
obligations and the noncash interest expense associated with the amortization of
debt discounts, debt facility fees, and warrants granted concurrently with new
debt facilities. Interest expense is offset by any interest income we earn on
our cash balances held in our interest-bearing savings account.



Other Income (Expenses)



Included in other income (expense) are foreign currency gains and losses due to
exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than
our functional currency, and any incentive grants we receive from the Bangladesh
government for investments we make within the country.

Comparison for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:





Revenues



                        Three Months Ended
                             June 30,

Revenues         $       7,333      $       5,173     $ 2,160          42 %




Revenues increased 42%, or $2.2 million, to $7.3 million during the three months
ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to a 49% increase
in the average number of clinicians in service, partially offset by a 4%
decrease in average revenue per unit ("ARPU") due to a higher mix of Notes
clinicians. The slower growth of implementation fees reduced total company
growth by approximately one percentage point. The increase in clinicians in
service was driven predominately by our existing Health Enterprises adding
physicians, by the strong growth of clinicians using Augmedix Notes, and by new
customers. Dollar-based net revenue retention of our Health Enterprises was 131%
in the three months ended June 30, 2022.



Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin





                          Three Months Ended
                               June 30,

Cost of revenues   $       4,131      $       2,761     $ 1,370          50 %




Cost of revenues increased $1.4 million to $4.1 million during the three months
ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $2.8 million during the three months ended
June 30, 2021. The increase was attributable to a $1.2 million increase in MDS
costs, up 44% verses to the comparable period last year, as clinicians in
service grew during 2022. The period in 2021 was impacted by a write-off of a
lease provision associated with our previous office space that lowered our cost
of revenue by $0.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. Cloud
Hosting grew by $0.2 million as our clinicians in service grew and we added
additional redundancy to our streaming platform to make it even more stable,
plus added technology to further automation. As a result of increased MDS costs
and cloud hosting costs, our gross margin was 43.7% during the three months
ended June 30, 2022, as compared to 46.6% during the three months ended June 30,
2021. An increase in the proportion of US-serviced clinicians, as compared to
clinicians serviced from outside the US, more than offset the operating
efficiencies we gained between the two periods, along with the year ago period's
gross margin benefiting from the write-off of the lease provision.

General and administrative expenses increased $1.0 million to $4.2 million
during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $3.2 million during
the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to
a $0.7 million increase in salaries, professional fees, and incremental costs
associated with being a public company. The increase was also due to a $0.3
million reversal from legal fees and a write off of a lease provision in the
three months ended June 30, 2021.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $0.7 million to $2.4 million during the
three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $1.7 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2021. The largest increase was the $0.4 million in expense
growth due to higher bookings performance driving higher commission accruals, in
addition to increased headcount in both our Customer Account Management and
Sales teams. The increase was also attributable to $0.2 million of additional
advertising spend, internal marketing headcount and outsourced marketing
services. The remaining $0.1 million increase was driven by additional headcount
to the customer onboarding team in order to sufficiently meet the needs of the
growing number of clinicians launching our services.

Research and development expenses increased $1.2 million to $2.6 million during
the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $1.5 million during the
three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was attributable to $0.6 million
of headcount investment into our engineering and product departments and salary
increases. The remaining $0.6 million was driven from an increase in training
costs to grow our MDS capacity to meet the service needs of new clinicians.

Our interest expense decreased $0.2 million to $0.4 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $0.6 million during the three months
ended June 30, 2021, due the improved interest rate terms of the new debt
facility in May 2022. The overall increase in other expenses was primarily
attributable to $1.1 million of expenses associated with the extinguishment of
the prior debt facility, which consisted almost entirely of a $1.1 million cash
exit fee paid to our previous lender. Lastly other income increased by $0.1
million driven from the collection of an incentive grant from the Bangladesh
government for investments and expenditures in that country.

Revenues increased 44%, or $4.3 million, to $14.3 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $10.0 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to a 50% increase in the
average number of clinicians in service, offset by a 4% decrease in ARPU due to
a larger mix of clinicians using the Notes product. The slower growth of
implementation fees reduced total company growth by just over one percentage
point. The increase in clinicians in service was driven predominately by our
existing Health Enterprises adding physicians, by the strong growth of
clinicians using Augmedix Notes, and new customers. Dollar-based net revenue
retention was 132% in the six months ended June 30, 2022.



Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin

(in thousands) (unaudited) (unaudited) Change Change Cost of revenues $ 8,003 $ 5,426 $ 2,577 47 %






Cost of revenues increased $2.6 million to $8.0 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $5.4 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to a $2.2 million
increase in MDS costs, up 43% as compared to the same period a year ago when
normalizing for the lease write off provision, as clinicians in service grew
year on year. We also had a higher number of clinicians supported by US-based
MDSs, which are more expensive than MDSs outside the US. In addition, cloud
hosting costs increased by $0.3 million due to the addition of new clinicians,
increased technology redundancy in our streaming platform, and new technology to
drive automation. Lastly, there was a $0.1 million write-off of lease provision
in 2021 that lowered costs in the six months ended June 30, 2021, and thus
raised gross margin in the period last year. Gross margin for the six months
ending June 30, 2022 was 44.1%, as compared to 43.9% in the six months ended
June 30, 2021, after adding back the lease write-provision.

General and administrative expenses increased $1.5 million to $8.2 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $6.7 million during
the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to a
$1.0 million increase in legal fees, salaries, professional fees, and
incremental costs associated with being a public company, and a $0.2 million
increase in our people team costs as our organization has grown and increased
recruitment activity. In the six months ended, June 30, 2021, there were $0.3
million reduction of costs associated with the write-off of a lease provision
and a legal fee reversal.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.4 million to $4.7 million during the
six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $3.3 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to $0.7
million of additional salary related expense due to increased headcount in our
Analytics and Insight, Customer Account Management and Sales teams in addition
to higher commission expense due to larger bookings. The increase was also
attributable to an incremental $0.5 million in advertising spend, additional
internal marketing headcount, and expanded outsourced marketing services.
Lastly, expenses grew $0.2 million due to a larger customer onboarding team to
support the growing number of clinicians launching our services.

the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $2.9 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to a $1.1
million investment into engineering and product headcount and higher salaries.
The remaining $0.9 million was driven by higher training costs to grow our MDS
capacity to meet the service needs of our larger clinician user base.

Our interest expense decreased $0.3 million to $1.0 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1.3 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2021, due to the lower interest rate on our new debt facility staring
May 2022. There was a $1.1 million loss on debt extinguishment as a result of
refinancing our debt facility, which relates to the $1.1million cash exit fee
paid to our previous lender.



During the six months ended June 30, 2022 we received a $0.2 million in
incentive grants from the Bangladesh government for our investments and
expenditures in that country. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we
received incentive grants of $0.2 million. Grants should grow as our expense
base grows in Bangladesh, but the quarterly timing of our cash receipt of these
grants is hard to estimate.



                                       27




Liquidity and Capital Resources





Our primary sources of liquidity are cash raised from sales of common stock,
preferred stock prior to 2020, and cash from borrowings under various
facilities, which are further described below. As of June 30, 2022, we had cash
resources of $30.8 million which includes $0.8 million of restricted cash to
secure our credit card facility balances, to collateralize a letter of credit in
the name of our landlord pursuant to a certain operating lease and for a
post-employment savings fund established for the benefit of eligible Bangladesh
employees. Since Augmedix's inception in 2013 until today, we have financed our
operations primarily through the private and public sale of over $185.0 million
of preferred and common stock and from various debt arrangements. As described
in Note 1 of our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements,
we have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since
inception and have an accumulated deficit at June 30, 2022 of $115.1 million. We
have relied on debt and equity financing to fund operations to date and we
expect losses and negative cash flows to continue, primarily as a result of
continued research, development and marketing efforts. Our recent debt
refinancing and cash balance will provide sufficient resources to meet working
capital needs for over twelve months from the filing date of the June 30, 2022
Form 10-Q. Over the longer term, if we do not generate sufficient revenue from
new and existing products, additional debt or equity financing may be required
along with a reduction in expenditures. Additionally, there is no assurance if
we require additional future financing that such financing will be available on
terms, which are acceptable to us, or at all.



The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for each of the
periods presented:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2022, we do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Other than as described under Note 2 to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates included in our Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022, have not materially changed.





JOBS Act Accounting Election



We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS
Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting
standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as
those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended
transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that
have different effective dates for public and private companies until the
earlier of the date that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or
(ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period
provided in the JOBS Act. We have elected to early adopt certain new accounting
standards, as described in Note 2 of our unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements. As a result, these interim financial
statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or
revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements





A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially
