NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1—DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company

BIOLASE, Inc. (“BIOLASE” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”), incorporated in Delaware in 1987, is a medical device company that develops, manufactures, markets, and sells laser systems in dentistry and medicine and also markets, sells, and distributes dental imaging equipment, including three-dimensional CAD/CAM intra-oral scanners and digital dentistry software.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BIOLASE and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared on a basis consistent with the December 31, 2017 audited consolidated financial statements and include all material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and the elimination of all material intercompany transactions and balances, necessary to fairly present the information set forth therein. These unaudited, interim, consolidated financial statements do not include all the footnotes, presentations, and disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements. Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentations.

The consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in BIOLASE’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2018 (the “2017 Form 10-K”).

Liquidity and Management’s Plans

The Company incurred a loss from operations and a net loss, and used cash in operating activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. The Company’s recurring losses, level of cash used in operations, and potential need for additional capital, along with uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

On March 6, 2018, BIOLASE and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a Business Financing Agreement (the “Business Financing Agreement”) with Western Alliance Bank (“Western Alliance”), which provides for borrowings of up to $6.0 million. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under these lines of credit as of June 30, 2018. See Note 9 – Lines of Credit for additional information.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had working capital of approximately $14.4 million. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2018 consisted of approximately $3.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, $10.4 million of accounts receivable and $3.9 million available under the Business Financing Agreement. 

In order for the Company to continue operations beyond the next 12 months and be able to discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, the Company must increase sales of its products directly to end-users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through the combination of increased sales and decreased expenses, generate cash from operations or obtain additional funds when needed. The Company intends to improve its financial condition and ultimately improve its financial results by increasing revenues through expansion of its product offerings, continuing to expand and develop its field sales force and distributor relationships, both domestically and internationally, forming strategic arrangements within the dental and medical industries, educating dental and medical patients as to the benefits of its advanced medical technologies, and reducing expenses.

6


 

Additional capital requirements may depend on many factors, including, among other things, continued losses, the rate at which the Company’s business grows, demands for working capital, manufacturing capacity, and any acquisitions that the Company may pursue. From time to time, the Company could be required, or may otherwise attempt, to raise capital, through either equity or debt offerings, or enter into an additional line of credit facility. As discussed in Note 9, on March 6, 2018, BIOLASE entered into the Business Financing Agreement, providing for a secured line of credit. The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to successfully consummate any equity or debt financings or enter into any other line of credit facility in the future. The Company also cannot provide assurance that the required capital would be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that any such financing activity would not be dilutive to the Company’s stockholders.

Reverse Stock Split

Except as the context otherwise requires, all share numbers and share price amounts (including exercise prices and closing market prices) contained in the unaudited financial statements and notes thereto reflect the reverse stock split effectuated by the Company on May 10, 2018. See Note 4 – Stockholders’ Equity for additional information.

 

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include allowances on accounts receivable, inventory, and deferred taxes, as well as estimates for accrued warranty expenses, the ability of goodwill to be realized, revenue deferrals, effects of stock-based compensation and warrants, contingent liabilities, and the provision or benefit for income taxes. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may differ materially from those estimates.

Critical Accounting Policies

Information with respect to the Company’s critical accounting policies, which management believes could have the most significant effect on the Company’s reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the 2017 Form 10-K. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2018 in the Company’s critical accounting policies from those disclosed in Item 7 of the 2017 Form 10-K.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market (or, if none exists, the most advantageous market) for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (referred to as the “exit price”). The fair value is based on assumptions that market participants would use, including a consideration of nonperformance risk. Under the accounting guidance for fair value hierarchy there are three levels of measurement inputs. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs reflect input other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or through collaboration with observable market data, other than Level 1. Level 3 inputs are unobservable due to little or no corroborating market data.

The Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these items.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification.

7


 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined not to be applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein.

ASU 2014-09 supersedes existing guidance on revenue recognition with a five-step model for recognizing and measuring revenue from contracts with customers. The objective of the new standard is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires a number of disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and the related cash flows. The guidance can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method) or retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the guidance at the date of initial adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed or substantially completed as of January 1, 2018. The timing and measurement of revenue recognition under the new standard is not materially different than under the old standard. The adoption of the new standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) (“ASU 2016-15”). The updated standard addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted.  The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) (“ASU 2016-18”). The updated standard requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2017-09”). The updated standard clarifies when an entity must apply modification accounting to changes in the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. ASU 2017-09 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted.  The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-11 (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”). The new standard simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Part I of ASU 2017-11 changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments, such as warrants and embedded conversion features, such that a down round feature is disregarded when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock under Subtopic 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. As a result, a down round feature, by itself, no longer requires an instrument to be remeasured at fair value through earnings each period, although all other aspects of the indexation guidance under Subtopic 815-40 continue to apply. Part II of ASU 2017-11 recharacterizes the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, (currently presented as pending content in the Codification) as a scope exception. No change in the Company’s practice is expected as a result of these amendments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in Part II have no accounting impact and therefore do not have an associated effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2017-11 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

Contracts with Customers

Revenue for sales of products and services is derived from contracts with customers. The products and services promised in contracts include delivery of laser systems, imaging systems, and consumables as well as certain ancillary services such as training and extended warranties. Contracts with each customer generally state the terms of the sale, including the description, quantity and price of each product or services. Payment terms are stated in the contract and vary according to the arrangement. Because the customer typically agrees to a stated rate and price in the contract that does not vary over the life of the contract, the Company’s contracts do not contain variable consideration.  The Company establishes a provision for estimated warranty reserves. For further information on warranty, see Note 8 – Accrued Liabilities.

Performance Obligations

At contract inception, the Company assesses the products and services promised in its contracts with customers. The Company then identifies performance obligations to transfer distinct products or services to the customers. In order to identify performance obligations, the Company considers all of the products or services promised in contracts regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices.

Revenue from products and services transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for 87% and 85% of net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The majority of the Company’s revenue recognized at a point in time is for the sale laser systems, imaging systems, and consumables. Revenue from these contracts is recognized when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits from the product which generally coincides with title transfer during the shipping process.

Revenue from services transferred to customers over time accounted for 13% and 15% of net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The majority of the Company’s revenue that is recognized over time relates to training and extended warranties.

Transaction Price Allocation

The transaction price for a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, each performance obligation is satisfied. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in a contract. The primary method used to estimate standalone selling price is the observable price when the good or service is sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers.

Significant Judgments

Revenue is recorded for extended warranty over time as the customer benefits from the warranty coverage. This revenue will be recognized equally throughout the contract period as the customer receives benefits from the Company's promise to provide such services. Revenue is recorded for training as the customer attends a training program or upon the expiration of the obligation.

The Company also has contracts that include both the product sales and training as performance obligations. In those cases, the Company records revenue for product at the point in time when the product has been shipped. The customer obtains control of the product when it is shipped, as all shipments are made FOB shipping point, and after the customer selects its shipping method and pays all shipping costs and insurance. The Company has concluded that control is transferred to the customer upon shipment.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an analysis of customer accounts and the Company’s historical experience with accounts receivable write-offs.

Contract Liabilities

The Company performs its obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and/or services in exchange for consideration from the customer. The Company typically invoices its customers as soon as control of an asset is transferred and a receivable for the Company is established. The Company, however, recognizes a contract liability when a customer prepays for goods and/or services and the Company has not transferred control of the goods and/or services. The opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract liabilities are as follows (in thousands):

Shipping and Freight Costs

Shipping and freight costs are treated as fulfillment costs. For shipments to end-customers, the customer bears the shipping and freight costs and has control of the product upon shipment. For shipments to distributors, the distributor bears the shipping and freight costs, including insurance, tariffs and other import/export costs.

Practical Expedients

For the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company elected the following practical expedients:

In accordance with Subtopic 340-40 "Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers,” the Company elected to expense the incremental costs of obtaining a contract when the amortization period for such contracts would have been one year or less.

The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude all taxes by governmental authorities from the measurement of the transaction price.

 

NOTE 4—STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Reverse Stock Split

At BIOLASE’s annual meeting of stockholders on May 9, 2018 (the “Annual Meeting”), BIOLASE stockholders approved an amendment to BIOLASE’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of BIOLASE common stock, at a ratio ranging from one-for-five (1:5) to one-for-fifteen (1:15), with the final ratio to be determined by the BIOLASE board of directors (the “Board”). Immediately after the Annual Meeting, the Board approved a one-for-five (1:5) reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of BIOLASE common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On May 10, 2018, the Company filed an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split, effective as of 11:59 p.m. on May 10, 2018. The Amendment also reduced the authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 shares to 40,000,000 shares.

Stock-Based Compensation

2002 Stock Incentive Plan

The 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended effective as of May 26, 2004, November 15, 2005, May 16, 2007, May 5, 2011, June 6, 2013, October 30, 2014, April 27, 2015, and May 6, 2016) (the “2002 Plan”), which was replaced by the 2018 Plan (as defined below) with respect to future equity awards. Persons eligible to receive awards under the 2002 Plan included officers, employees, and directors of the Company, as well as consultants. As of June 30, 2018, a total of 3.1 million shares of BIOLASE common stock have been authorized for issuance under the 2002 Plan, of which 0.9 million shares of BIOLASE common stock have been issued pursuant to options that were exercised and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that were settled in common stock and 1.9 million shares of BIOLASE common stock have been reserved for outstanding options and unvested RSUs.

2018 Stock Incentive Plan

At the Annual Meeting, BIOLASE stockholders approved the BIOLASE, Inc. 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The purposes of the 2018 Plan are (i) to align the interests of the Company’s stockholders and recipients of awards under the 2018 Plan by increasing the proprietary interest of such recipients in the Company’s growth and success; (ii) to advance the interests of the Company by attracting and retaining non-employee directors, officers, other employees, consultants, independent contractors and agents; and (iii) to motivate such persons to act in the long-term best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2018 Plan, the number of shares authorized for grants under the 2018 Plan is 2,035,287, which is equal to 2,120,547, reduced by 85,260 shares, which is the number of shares subject to awards granted under the 2002 Plan on or after March 1, 2018, as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split. As of June 30, 2018, a total of 2.0 million shares of BIOLASE common stock have been authorized for issuance under the 2018 Plan, of which 1.6 million shares of BIOLASE common stock have been reserved for outstanding options and unvested RSUs, and 0.4 million shares of BIOLASE common stock remain available for future grants.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0.6 million and $0.8 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $1.3 million and $1.1 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, based on the grant-date fair value. Stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 includes the reversal of $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, resulting from the reassessment of certain performance-based equity awards. The net impact of stock-based compensation expense to earnings was $(0.03), and $(0.06) per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $(0.06) and $(0.08) per basic and diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $3.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements. The Company expects that expense to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

The following table summarizes the income statement classification of compensation expense associated with share-based payments (in thousands):

On March 6, 2018, in connection with the execution of the Business Financing Agreement, the Company issued to Western Alliance warrants (the “Western Alliance Warrants”) to purchase up that number of shares of BIOLASE common stock equal to $120,000 divided by the applicable exercise price at the time such warrants are exercised. The Western Alliance Warrants are fully vested and exercisable. The Western Alliance Warrants may be exercised with a cash payment from Western Alliance, or, in lieu of a cash payment, Western Alliance may convert the warrants into a number of shares, in whole or in part. The initial exercise price of the warrants was $2.35 per share, which was the Reverse Stock Split-adjusted closing market price of BIOLASE common stock on March 6, 2018.  See Note 9 – Lines of Credit for further discussion.

Net Loss Per Share – Basic and Diluted

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of BIOLASE common stock outstanding for the period. In computing diluted net income (loss) per share, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of potentially dilutive securities.

Outstanding stock options, RSUs and warrants to purchase approximately 5.1 million shares were not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the same 2017 periods, anti-dilutive outstanding stock options and warrants to purchase 5.4 million shares were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share.

NOTE 7—INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL

The Company conducted its annual impairment test of goodwill as of June 30, 2018 and determined that there was no impairment. The Company also tests its intangible assets and goodwill between the annual impairment tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Company or its assets below their carrying amounts. For intangible assets subject to amortization, the Company performs its impairment test when indicators, such as reductions in demand or significant economic slowdowns, are present. No events have occurred since June 30, 2018 through the date of these consolidated financial statements that would trigger further impairment testing of the Company’s intangible assets and goodwill.

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had goodwill (indefinite life) of $2.9 million. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, all intangible assets have been fully amortized. There was no amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 or 2017.

NOTE 9—LINES OF CREDIT

On March 6, 2018, BIOLASE and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (such subsidiaries, together with BIOLASE, the “Borrower”) entered into the Business Financing Agreement. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Business Financing Agreement, Western Alliance has agreed to provide the Borrower a secured revolving line of credit permitting the Borrower to borrow or receive letters of credit up to the lesser of $6.0 million (the “Domestic Revolver”) (subject to a $6.0 million credit limit relating to domestic eligible accounts receivable (the “domestic credit limit”) and a $3.0 million credit limit relating to export-related (the “EXIM Revolver”) eligible accounts receivable (the “EXIM credit limit”)) and the borrowing base, which is defined as the sum of the domestic borrowing base (up to 75% of the Borrower’s eligible domestic accounts receivable less such reserves as Western Alliance may deem proper and necessary) and the export-related borrowing base (up to 85% of the Borrower’s eligible export-related accounts receivable less such reserves as Western Alliance may deem proper and necessary). The Business Financing Agreement expires on March 6, 2020, and the Borrower’s obligations thereunder are secured by a security interest in all of the Borrower’s assets.

18


 

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Domestic Revolver or the EXIM Revolver. There were no restricted cash balances required by the Domestic Revolver or the EXIM Revolver as of June 30, 2018. The Company’s obligations are generally secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. The total amount available under the Business Financing Agreement as of June 30, 2018 was $3.9 million. The Company received a notice of non-compliance with certain non-financial covenants, and on August 13, 2018, the Company entered into a waiver agreement (the “Waiver Agreement”) with Western Alliance, which waived the non-compliance with these non-financial covenants, specifically the Company’s failure to transfer bank accounts to Western Alliance and to dissolve certain non-operating subsidiaries. The Company paid fees of $5,000 in connection with the Forbearance Agreement, pursuant to which WAB set the total aggregate available borrowings to $1.5 million.

The Business Financing Agreement requires the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants, as defined therein. If a default occurs, Western Alliance may declare the amounts outstanding under the Business Financing Agreement immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

Amounts outstanding under the Business Financing Agreement bear interest at a per annum floating rate equal to the greater of 4.5% or the “Prime Rate” published in the Money Rates section of the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal (or such other rate of interest publicly announced from time to time by Western Alliance as its “Prime Rate”), plus 1.5% with respect to advances made under the line of credit, plus an additional 5.0% during any period that an event of default has occurred and is continuing. The commitment fee under the Business Financing Agreement is 0.25% of the domestic credit limit and 1.75% of the EXIM credit limit and is payable on March 6, 2018 and each anniversary thereof. As of June 30, 2018, the interest rate on both the Domestic Revolver and EXIM Revolver was 6.5%.

Pursuant to the Business Financing Agreement, the Company paid the first of two annual commitment fees totaling $67,500, being 0.25% of the aggregate $6.0 million commitment for the Domestic Revolver and 1.75% of the aggregate $3.0 million commitment for the EXIM Revolver. The commitment fees and the legal costs associated with acquiring the credit facilities were capitalized and are being amortized on a straight-line basis as interest expense over the term of the Business Financing Agreement.

As additional consideration for the lines of credit, the Company also issued the Western Alliance Warrants. For additional information on the Western Alliance Warrants, see Note 4 – Stockholders’ Equity. The fair value of the Western Alliance Warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected term of 10 years; volatility of 91.49%; annual dividend per share of $0.00; and risk-free interest rate of 2.88%; and resulted in an estimated fair value of $0.1 million, which was recorded as a liability and resulted in a discount to the credit facilities at issuance. The discount is being amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the term of the Business Financing Agreement.

 

NOTE 10—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

The Company leases its 57,000 square foot corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility located at 4 Cromwell, Irvine, California. In March 2015, the corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility lease was amended to extend the term through April 30, 2020, modify provisions for a tenant improvement allowance of up to $0.4 million, and adjust the basic rent terms. Future minimum rental commitments under operating lease agreements with non-cancelable terms greater than one year for the years ending December 31 are listed below. The Company also leases certain office equipment and automobiles under various operating lease arrangements.

In February 2015, the Company entered into a 30-month capital lease agreement for information technology equipment. In February 2018, the Company extended the agreement for information technology equipment for an additional lease term of 18 months. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, the renewal of this lease constituted a new lease and is classified by the Company as an operating lease.

Employee arrangements and other compensation

Certain members of management are entitled to severance benefits payable upon termination following a change in control, which would approximate $2.1 million, in the aggregate, at June 30, 2018. The Company also has agreements with certain employees to pay bonuses based on targeted performance criteria. As of June 30, 2018, approximately $0.2 million was accrued for performance bonuses, which is included in accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Effective April 10, 2018, Harold C. Flynn, Jr. resigned from the Board and as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company and Mr. Flynn entered into a Separation Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2018 (the “Separation Agreement”). Mr. Flynn is entitled to receive severance in an amount of $365,000, payable through December 28, 2018, along with certain other benefits, including the continued vesting of all of Mr. Flynn’s time-based stock options through April 9, 2020 and an extension of the time to exercise such options through December 31, 2021, subject to immediate vesting upon a change of control, and continued vesting of the time-based RSUs granted to Mr. Flynn on February 6, 2017 through February 6, 2019, subject to immediate vesting upon a change of control. Any unvested stock options following April 9, 2020 will be cancelled and will not vest, and any RSUs that are unvested following February 6, 2019 will be canceled and will not vest. Due to the modification of Mr. Flynn’s equity awards, the Company recognized a net reduction of stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.3 million, primarily due to the fluctuation in stock prices from the time the awards were granted to when Mr. Flynn resigned and the awards were re-evaluated.

Purchase commitments

The Company generally purchases components and subassemblies for its products from a limited group of third-party suppliers through purchase orders. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $11.9 million of purchase commitments for which the Company has not received certain goods or services that are expected to be purchased within one year. These purchase commitments were made to secure better pricing and to ensure the Company will have the necessary parts to meet anticipated near-term demand. Although open purchase orders are considered enforceable and legally binding, the Company may be able to cancel, reschedule or adjust requirements prior to supplier fulfillment.

Litigation

The Company discloses material loss contingencies deemed to be reasonably possible and accrues for loss contingencies when, in consultation with its legal advisors, management concludes that a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. The ability to predict the ultimate outcome of such matters involves judgments, estimates, and inherent uncertainties. The actual outcome of such matters could differ materially from management’s estimates.

 

Intellectual Property Litigation

On April 24, 2012, CAO Group, Inc. (“CAO”) filed a lawsuit against BIOLASE in the District of Utah alleging that BIOLASE’s ezlase dental laser infringes on U.S. Patent No. 7,485,116 (the “116 Patent”). On September 9, 2012, CAO amended its complaint, adding claims for (1) business disparagement/injurious falsehood under common law and (2) unfair competition under 15 U.S.C. Section 1125(a). The additional claims stem from a press release that BIOLASE issued on April 30, 2012, which CAO claims contained false statements that are

20


 

disparaging to CAO and its diode product. The amended complaint seeks injunctive relief, treble damages, attorneys’ fees, punitive damages, and interest. Until January 24, 2018, this lawsuit was stayed in connection with United States Patent and Trademark Office proceedings relating to the 116 Patent, which proceedings ultimately culminated in a January 27, 2017 decision by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, affirming the findings of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. On January 25, 2018, CAO moved for leave to file a second amended complaint to add certain claims, which filing the Company did not oppose. The Utah matter has since been transferred to the Central District of California and the two matters have been consolidated with the matter described below.

On January 23, 2018, CAO filed a lawsuit against BIOLASE in the Central District of California alleging that BIOLASE’s diode lasers infringe on U.S. Patent Nos. 8,337,097, 8,834,497, 8,961,040 and 8,967,883. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, treble damages, attorneys’ fees, punitive damages, and interest.

 

NOTE 11—SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company currently operates in a single business segment. Management uses one measurement of profitability and does not segregate its business for internal reporting.

No individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 or 2017.

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalent accounts with established commercial banks. Such cash deposits periodically exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

No individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable at June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

The Company currently purchases certain key components of its products from single suppliers. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers of these key components, management believes that other suppliers could provide similar key components on comparable terms. A change in suppliers, however, could cause delays in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

 

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Management evaluates the need to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based upon the amount of existing temporary differences, the period in which they are expected to be recovered, and expected levels of taxable income. A valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets is established when it is “more likely than not” that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based on the Company’s net losses in prior years, management has determined that a full valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets is appropriate.

Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties as a component of its income tax provision. With respect to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including related estimates of penalties and interest, the Company did not record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The Company does not expect any changes to its unrecognized tax benefit for the next 12 months that would materially impact its consolidated financial statements.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $10,000 and $42,000, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of (10.0)% and 0.8%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $36,000 and $76,000 respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0.9% and 0.9%, respectively. The income tax provisions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were calculated using the discrete year-to-date method. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for 2018 and 34% for 2017 primarily due to the existence of valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets and current liabilities resulting from the estimated state income tax liabilities and foreign tax liability.

22


 

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. federal government enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”), which enacts a broad range of changes to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Many of the provisions of the 2017 Tax Act take effect for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, including changes to the U.S. federal corporate tax rate to a flat 21%, significant additional limitations on the deductibility of interest and net operating losses, the allowance for the expensing of certain capital expenditures, and a number of changes impacting operations outside of the United States. The Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities have been revalued at newly enacted rate in the year of enactment, the impact of which was mostly absorbed by the existing valuation allowance.

The 2017 Tax Act also includes provisions for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) wherein taxes on foreign income are imposed in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations.  This provision is effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017. Because of the complexity of the new GILTI tax rules, the Company continues to evaluate this provision of the 2017 Tax Act including the associated forecast of GILTI and the application of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under GAAP, the Company is allowed to make an accounting policy choice of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes. The Company’s selection of an accounting policy with respect to the new GILTI tax rules will depend, in part, on analyzing its global income to determine whether the Company expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI and, if so, what the impact is expected to be. Whether the Company expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI depends on not only the Company’s current structure and estimated future results of global operations, but also the Company’s intent and ability to modify its structure.  The Company is not yet able to reasonably estimate the effect of this provision of the 2017 Tax Act. However, due to the Company’s current net operating loss (“NOL”) position and NOL carryforward balance, the Company does not believe this provision will have a material impact on the provision.

NOTE 14—SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

Effective August 7, 2018, the Company entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Todd Norbe to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of BIOLASE.

Overview

We are a medical device company that develops, manufactures, markets, and sells laser systems in dentistry and medicine and also markets, sells, and distributes dental imaging equipment, including three-dimensional CAD/CAM intra-oral scanners and digital dentistry software. Our products advance the practice of dentistry and medicine for patients and health care professionals. Our proprietary dental laser systems allow dentists, periodontists, endodontists, oral surgeons, and other dental specialists to perform a broad range of minimally invasive dental procedures, including cosmetic, restorative, and complex surgical applications. Our laser systems are designed to provide clinically superior results for many types of dental procedures compared to those achieved with drills, scalpels, and other conventional instruments. We have clearance from the FDA to market and sell our laser systems in the United States and also have the necessary registration to market and sell our laser systems in Canada, the European Union, and many other countries outside the United States. Additionally, our in-licensed imaging equipment and related products improve diagnoses, applications, and procedures in dentistry and medicine.

25


 

We offer two categories of laser system products: Waterlase (all-tissue) systems and Diode (soft-tissue) systems. Our flagship brand, the Waterlase, uses a patented combination of water and laser energy to perform most procedures currently performed using drills, scalpels, and other traditional dental instruments for cutting soft and hard tissue. We also offer our Diode laser systems to perform soft tissue, pain therapy, and cosmetic procedures, including teeth whitening. We have approximately 244 issued and 74 pending United States and international patents, the majority of which are related to Waterlase technology. From 1998 through June 30, 2018 we sold over 37,600 laser systems in over 90 countries around the world. Contained in this total are approximately 12,700 Waterlase systems, including approximately 8,600 Waterlase MD, MDX, Express and iPlus systems.

Business and Outlook

Our Waterlase systems precisely cut hard tissue, bone, and soft tissue with minimal or no damage to surrounding tissue and dental structures. Our Diode systems, which include the Epic system, are designed to complement our Waterlase systems, and are used only in soft tissue procedures, pain therapy, hygiene, and cosmetic applications, including teeth whitening. The Diode systems, together with our Waterlase systems, offer practitioners a broad product line with a range of features and price points.

We also manufacture and sell consumable products and accessories for our laser systems. Our Waterlase and Diode systems use disposable laser tips of differing sizes and shapes depending on the procedure being performed. We also market flexible fibers and hand pieces that dental practitioners replace at some point after initially purchasing laser systems. For our Epic systems, we sell teeth whitening gel kits.

Due to the limitations associated with traditional and alternative dental instruments, we believe there is a large market opportunity for all-tissue dental laser systems that provide superior clinical outcomes, reduce the need to use anesthesia, help reduce trauma, pain, and discomfort associated with dental procedures, and increase patient acceptance for treatment protocols. We also believe there is a large market opportunity for digital radiography systems and CAD/CAM intra-oral scanners that improve practice efficiency and accuracy of diagnosis, leading to superior treatment planning, increased practice revenue, and healthier outcomes for patients.

Our strategy is to increase awareness and demand for (i) our products among dental practitioners by educating dental practitioners and patients about the clinical benefits of our product suite and (ii) our laser systems among patients by educating patients about the clinical benefits of the Waterlase and Diode systems. An important goal of ours is to increase consumables revenue by selling more single-use accessories used by dental practitioners when performing procedures using our dental laser systems. In the short term, we are striving for operating excellence through lean enterprise initiatives, with a specific focus on our sales strategy and cash flow management, coupled with optimizing our engineering capabilities to develop innovative new products.

We also seek to create value through innovation and leveraging existing technologies into adjacent medical applications. We plan to expand our product line and clinical applications by developing enhancements and transformational innovations, including new clinical solutions for dental applications and for other adjacent medical applications. In particular, we believe that our existing technologies can provide significant improvements over existing standards of care in fields including ophthalmology, otolaryngology, orthopedics, podiatry, pain management, aesthetics/dermatology, veterinary, and consumer products. We plan to continue to explore potential collaborations to apply our proprietary laser technologies with expanded FDA-cleared indications to other medical applications in the future.

Mr. Sato has more than 30 years of experience as a successful consultant and senior executive with companies in the dental industry and has served as a senior advisor and executive partner with private equity and investment banking firms.

Also consistent with our goal to focus our energies on worldwide competitiveness, strengthening our leadership, and increasing the amount of attention we pay to our professional customers and their patients, we have made strategic personnel additions to our senior management team.

Effective April 10, 2018 and with the resignation of Harold C. Flynn, Jr. as our President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director, the Board appointed John R. Beaver as our Interim Chief Executive Officer to focus on business performance improvement and continuing operational efficiencies.

Effective August 7, 2018, the Board appointed Mr. Norbe as our President and Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Beaver, who was serving as our Interim Chief Executive Officer, was promoted to Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Southern California Model Market

During the first half of 2018, we bolstered efforts in Southern California to significantly enhance the region’s oral health and dental care by increasing awareness and education in laser dentistry. We added local specialists to our staff to offer dentists more support in maximizing the use of their lasers. In addition, we began to offer more educational courses, informational events and community activities to help ensure that dentists and their patients are provided with the latest information in laser dentistry. In April 2018, we formed a Southern California Dental Advisory Board, which is comprised of local dentistry veterans whose collective expertise serves as excellent resources to help propel the local market forward.

Reverse Stock Split

Effective May 10, 2018, BIOLASE effectuated a one-to-five reverse stock split. In connection with the reverse stock split, the number of authorized shares of BIOLASE common stock was reduced from 200,000,000 shares to 40,000,000 shares.  See Part I, Item I, Note 4 – Stockholders’ Equity for additional information.

Critical Accounting Policies

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses reported during the period. Information with respect to our critical accounting policies that we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the 2017 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2018 in our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in Item 7 of the 2017 Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with GAAP, we provide certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, these non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of the Company’s ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents.

Management believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments, and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Form 10-Q have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

28


 

Non-GAAP Net Loss

Management uses non-GAAP net loss (defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation) in its evaluation of the Company’s core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial information reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. The following table contains a reconciliation of non-GAAP net loss to GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders (in thousands).

Typically, we experience fluctuations in revenue from quarter to quarter due to seasonality. Revenue in the first quarter typically is lower than average, and revenue in the fourth quarter typically is stronger than average, due to the buying patterns of dental practitioners. We believe that this trend exists because a significant number of dentists purchase their capital equipment towards the end of the calendar year in order to maximize their practice earnings while seeking to minimize their taxes. They often use certain tax incentives, such as accelerated depreciation methods for purchasing capital equipment, as part of their year-end tax planning. In addition, revenue in the third quarter may be affected by vacation patterns which can cause revenue to be flat or lower than in the second quarter of the year. Our historical seasonal fluctuations may also be impacted by sales promotions used by large dental distributors that encourage end-of-quarter and end-of-year buying in our industry.

The $0.5 million, or 4%, overall decrease in quarter-over-quarter net revenue resulted primarily from imaging systems sales, which decreased by $0.6 million, or 61%, in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017. Sales of our imaging products decreased by 66% domestically, and there were no sales internationally during the second quarter of 2018. Imaging in the Second Quarter 2017 benefited from a one-time study club purchase. The Company is focusing on its core laser products. Laser systems revenue decreased marginally by 0.5%, in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017, driven by a decline in domestic sales. Services revenue, which consists of extended warranty service contracts, advanced training programs, and other services, decreased marginally by $0.1 million, or 4%, in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017.

Partially offsetting decreases in laser systems revenue, imaging systems revenue and services revenue was an increase to consumables and other revenue. Consumables and other revenue, which consists of consumable products such as disposable tips, increased by $0.3 million or 12%, in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit: The following table summarizes our cost of revenue and gross profit for the Second Quarter 2018 and the Second Quarter 2017, as well as the amount of change and percentage of change (dollars in thousands):

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue typically fluctuates with product and regional mix, selling prices, product costs and revenue levels. The 8% decline in gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the Second Quarter 2018, as compared to the Second Quarter 2017, reflected lower revenue resulting in unabsorbed fixed costs.

The quarter-over-quarter total operating expenses are explained in the following expense categories:

Sales and Marketing Expense. Sales and marketing expenses in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017 increased by $0.1 million, or 3%, primarily due to an increase in payroll and consulting-related expenses of $0.3 million, partially offset by decreased convention-related expenses of $0.1 million. As we continue efforts to transform and drive to revenue growth, we expect sales and marketing expenses to increase as a percentage of revenue as a result of our Southern California Model Market initiatives for the remainder of 2018.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expenses in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017 increased by $0.1 million, or 5%, primarily due to an increase in legal fees resulting from our efforts to protect our intellectual property. We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue through the remainder of 2018.

Engineering and Development Expense. Engineering and development expenses in the Second Quarter 2018 compared to the Second Quarter 2017 decreased by $0.4 million, or 25%, primarily due to a $0.2 million decrease in operating supplies and a decrease in payroll and consulting-related expenses of $0.1 million. We expect engineering and development expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue through the remainder of 2018.

Gain (Loss) on Foreign Currency Transactions. We realized a $0.2 million loss on foreign currency transactions during the Second Quarter 2018, compared to a $0.2 million gain on foreign currency transactions during the Second Quarter 2017, due to exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and other currencies, primarily the Euro.

Interest Expense (Income), Net.  Interest expense during the Second Quarter 2018 represented interest recognized from the amortization of the warrants issued to Western Alliance Bank (“Western Alliance”) in March 2018. See Part I, Item I, Note 9 – Lines of Credit for additional information. Interest income during the Second Quarter 2017 represented interest recognized from the discounted present value of the settlement in connection with the patent infringement lawsuit against Fotona Proizvodnja Optoelektronskih Naprav D.D. and Fotona LLC (collectively, “Fotona”). We filed the lawsuit in Düsseldorf District Court in April 2012 alleging infringement with respect to the Fotona Fidelis dental laser system.

Income Tax Provision. We use a discrete year-to-date method in calculating quarterly provision for income taxes. Our provision for income taxes was $10,000 for the Second Quarter 2018, compared to a provision of $36,000 for the Second Quarter 2017. For additional information regarding income taxes, see Part I, Item I, Note 13 – Income Taxes.

Net Loss. Our net loss totaled approximately $4.9 million for the Second Quarter 2018 compared to a net loss of $4.3 million for the Second Quarter 2017. The $0.6 million, or 15%, increase in net loss was primarily due to a $0.4 million, negative impact due to a loss in the Second Quarter of 2018 compared to a gain in the Second Quarter of 2017 on foreign currency transactions.

The $1.3 million, or 6%, overall decrease in period-over-period net revenue resulted primarily from laser systems sales, which decreased by $1.1 million, or 7%, in YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017. The laser systems revenue decrease was driven by a 20% decline in domestic revenue partially offset by a 7% increase in international revenue. Imaging revenue also decreased by $0.6 million or 40%, in YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017.

Partially offsetting the decreased laser systems revenue and license fees and royalty revenue were increases to consumables and other revenue. Consumables and other revenue, which consists of consumable products such as disposable tips, increased by $0.6 million, or 16%, in YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017.

Total revenue by geographic location based on the location of customers for YTD Second Quarter 2018 and YTD Second Quarter 2017, as well as the amount of change and percentage of change in each geographic revenue category, were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue typically fluctuates with product and regional mix, selling prices, product costs and revenue levels. The 15% decline in gross profit as a percentage of revenue for YTD Second Quarter 2018, as compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017, reflected lower revenue resulting in unabsorbed fixed costs.

The period-over-period total operating expenses are explained in the following expense categories.

Sales and Marketing Expense. Sales and marketing expenses in YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017 decreased by $0.2 million, or 2%, primarily due to decreases in convention-related expenses of $0.4 million, and decreases in media, advertising, and printing expenses of $0.1 million, partially offset by an increase in payroll and consulting-related expenses of $0.4 million. In the first quarter of 2017, we participated in the International Dental Show in Cologne, Germany, which led to higher convention-related expenses and travel expenditures. As we continue efforts to transform and drive to revenue growth, we expect sales and marketing expenses to increase as a percentage of revenue as a result of our Southern California Model Market initiatives for the remainder of 2018.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expenses in YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017 increased by $0.8 million or 14%, primarily due to an increase of $0.3 million in payroll and consulting-related expenses and an increase of $0.1 million in patent and legal fees resulting from our efforts to protect our intellectual property, and a $0.2 million increase in provision for doubtful accounts. The increase in payroll and consulting-related expenses is primarily due to an increase in consulting fees of $0.1 million. We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue through the remainder of 2018.

Engineering and Development Expense. Engineering and development expenses in YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to YTD Second Quarter 2017 decreased by $0.6 million, or 18%, primarily due to a $0.3 million decrease in operating supplies and a $0.1 million decrease in payroll and consulting-related expenses. The decrease in payroll and consulting-related expenses was driven by a decrease in wages of $0.1 million. We expect engineering and development expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue through the remainder of 2018.

Gain (Loss) on Foreign Currency Transactions. We realized a gain of $20,000 on foreign currency transactions during YTD Second Quarter 2018, compared to a $216,000 gain on foreign currency transactions during YTD Second Quarter 2017, due to exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and other currencies, primarily the Euro.

Interest Expense (Income), Net. Interest expense during YTD Second Quarter 2018 represented interest recognized from the amortization of the warrants issued to Western Alliance in March 2018. See Part I, Item I, Note 9 – Lines of Credit for additional information. Interest income during YTD Second Quarter 2017 represented interest recognized from the discounted present value of the settlement in connection with the Fotona patent infringement lawsuit described above.

Income Tax Provision. Our provision for income taxes was $42,000 for YTD Second Quarter 2018, compared to a provision of $76,000 for YTD Second Quarter 2017. For additional information regarding income taxes, see Part I, Item I, Note 11 – Income Taxes.

Net Loss. Our net loss totaled approximately $9.9 million for YTD Second Quarter 2018 compared to a net loss of $8.4 million for YTD Second Quarter 2017. The $1.5 million or 18%, increase in net loss was due to a $1.3 million, or 15%, reduction in gross profit and a $0.2 million decrease in gains on foreign currency transactions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $3.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Management defines cash and cash equivalents as highly liquid deposits with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased. The decrease in our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $8.8 million at June 30, 2018 as compared to December 31, 2017, was primarily due to net cash used in operating activities of $8.4 million. The $8.4 million of net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by the Company’s net loss of $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities consists of our net loss, adjusted for our non-cash charges, plus or minus working capital changes. Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 totaled $8.3 million and was primarily comprised of our net loss of $9.9 million, partially offset by non-cash adjustments for depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.5 million, provision for bad debts of $0.2 million and stock-based compensation expenses of $1.3 million. The $0.5 million net decrease in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in inventory of $1.8 million, resulting from lower than projected sales, an increase in accounts receivable of $0.5 million related to the timing of our collections, and a decrease in deferred revenue of $0.4 million, resulting from the impact of implementing the new revenue recognition standard which provided for less deferred installation and deferred diode online training revenue, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.1 million related to the timing of our payments.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 consisted of $0.1 million of capital expenditures. The period-over-period decrease was primarily due to the timing of our capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Net cash used financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $0.3 million resulted primarily from payments of equity offering costs from 2017 of $0.1 million and payments of debt issuance costs of $0.1 million.

Effect of Exchange Rate

The effect of exchange rate on cash for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was minimal.

Future Liquidity Needs

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had working capital of approximately $14.4 million. Our principal sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2018 consisted of approximately $3.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $10.4 million of net accounts receivable.

On March 6, 2018, BIOLASE and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a Business Financing Agreement with Western Alliance, which provides for borrowings of up to $6.0 million. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under these lines of credit as of June 30, 2018. See Part I, Item I, Note 9 – Lines of Credit for additional information.

In order for us to continue operations beyond the next 12 months and be able to discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, we must increase sales of our products directly to end-users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through the combination of increased sales and decreased expenses, generate cash from operations or obtain additional funds when needed. We intend to improve our financial condition and ultimately improve our financial results by increasing revenues through expansion of our product offerings, continuing to expand and develop our fields sales force and distribution relationships both domestically and internationally, forming strategic arrangements within the dental and medical industries, educating dental and medical patients as to the benefits of our advanced medical technologies, and reducing expenses. Additional capital requirements may depend on many factors, including, among other things, continued losses, the rate at which our business grows, demands for working capital, manufacturing capacity, and any acquisitions that we may pursue. From time to time, we could be required, or may otherwise attempt, to raise capital, through either equity or debt offerings, or enter into another line of credit facility. As discussed above, on March 6, 2018, BIOLASE and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a Business Financing Agreement with Western Alliance, which provides for borrowings of up to $6.0 million. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to successfully consummate any equity or debt financings or enter into any other line of credit facility in the future or that the required capital would be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that any such financing activity would not be dilutive to our stockholders.
