Overview

Misonix, Inc. is a Delaware corporation based in Farmingdale, New York. Misonix was incorporated in connection with our acquisition of Solsys Medical in 2019 and became a successor to our current operating subsidiary, Misonix Op Co., which was incorporated in New York in 1967.

We design, manufacture, market, sell and distribute minimally invasive surgical ultrasonic medical devices. These products are used for precise bone sculpting, removal of soft and hard tumors, and tissue debridement, primarily in the areas of neurosurgery, orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery, wound care and maxillo-facial surgery. We also exclusively market, sell and distribute skin allografts and wound care products used to support healing of wounds, and which complement our ultrasonic medical devices.

We strive to have our proprietary procedural solutions become the standard of care and enhance patient outcomes throughout the world. We intend to accomplish this, in part, by utilizing our best-in-class surgical ultrasonic technology to improve patient outcomes in neurosurgery, orthopaedic surgery, general surgery, plastic surgery and wound care. Our neXus generator combines the capabilities of our three legacy ultrasonic products into a single system that can be used to perform soft and hard tissue resections. We also continue to market and sell these legacy ultrasonic products, which are:

●	BoneScalpel Surgical System, or BoneScalpel, which is used for surgical procedures involving the precise cutting and sculpting of bone while sparing soft tissue. BoneScalpel is now recognized by many surgeons globally as a critical surgical tool enabling improved patient outcomes in the spine surgery arena.

●	SonaStar Surgical Aspirator, or SonaStar, which is used to emulsify and remove soft and hard tumors, primarily in the neuro and general surgery fields.

●	SonicOne Wound Debridement System, or SonicOne, which offers tissue specific debridement and cleansing of wounds and burns for effective removal of devitalized tissue and fibrin deposits while sparing viable cells.

These devices primarily serve the following clinical specialties: neurosurgery, orthopaedic surgery, general surgery, plastic surgery, wound care and maxillo-facial surgery.

Products

Each of our medical device systems consist of a proprietary console and handpiece that function to convert electrical current into ultrasonic energy, ultimately delivered via a disposable titanium tip, to produce a therapeutic effect.

neXus^®

neXus is a next generation integrated ultrasonic surgical platform that combines all the features of our existing solutions, including BoneScalpel, SonicOne and SonaStar, into a single fully integrated platform that will also serve to power future solutions. The neXus platform is driven by a new proprietary digital algorithm that results in more power, efficiency, and control. The device incorporates Smart Technology that allows for easier setup and use.

neXus’ increased power improves tissue resection rates for both soft and hard tissue removal making it a unique surgical platform for a variety of different surgical specialties. In addition, neXus’ ease of use enables physicians to fully leverage neXus’ impressive set of capabilities via its digital touchscreen display and smart system setup. Our current ultrasonic applications, which are BoneScalpel, SonaStar and SonicOne, all work on the neXus generator. This allows a hospital to access all of our product offerings on this all-in-one console. We principally sell neXus in the United States.

BoneScalpel®

The BoneScalpel is a state of the art, ultrasonic bone cutting and sculpting system capable of enabling precise cuts with minimal necrosis, minimal burn artifact, minimal inflammation and minimal bone loss. The device is also capable of preserving surrounding soft tissue structures because of its ability to differentiate soft tissue from rigid bone. This device can make precise linear or curved cuts, on any plane, with precision not normally associated with powered instrumentation. We believe that BoneScalpel offers the speed and convenience of a powered instrument without the dangers associated with conventional rotary devices. The effect on surrounding soft tissue is minimal due to the elastic and flexible structure of healthy tissue. This is a significant advantage in anatomical regions like the spine where patient safety is of primary concern. In addition, the linear motion of the blunt, tissue-impacting tips avoids accidental ‘trapping’ of soft tissue while largely eliminating the high-speed spinning and tearing associated with rotary power instruments. The BoneScalpel allows surgeons to improve on existing surgical techniques by creating new approaches to bone cutting, sculpting, and removal, leading to substantial time-savings and increased operation efficiencies.

SonaStar®

The SonaStar System provides powerful and precise aspiration following the ultrasonic ablation of soft tissue. The SonaStar has been used for a wide variety of surgical procedures applying both open and minimally invasive approaches, including neurosurgery and general surgery. The SonaStar may also be used with OsteoSculpt® probe tips, which enable the precise shaping or shaving of bony structures that prevent open access to partially or completely hidden soft tissue masses.

SonicOne®

The SonicOne Ultrasonic Cleansing and Debridement System is a highly innovative, tissue specific approach for the effective removal of devitalized or necrotic tissue and fibrin deposits while sparing viable, surrounding cellular structures. The tissue specific capability is, in part, due to the fact that healthy and viable tissue structures have a higher elasticity and flexibility than necrotic tissue and are more resistant to destruction from the impact effects of ultrasound. The ultrasonic debridement process separates devitalized tissue from viable tissue layers, allowing for a more defined treatment and, usually, a reduced pain sensation. We believe that SonicOne establishes a new standard in wound bed preparation, the essential first step in the healing process, while contributing to a faster patient healing.

TheraSkin®

TheraSkin is a biologically active human skin allograft that has all of the relevant characteristics of human skin needed to heal wounds, including living cells, growth factors, and a collagen matrix. TheraSkin is derived from human skin tissue from consenting and highly screened donors and is regulated by the FDA as a Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Product. LifeNet processes and supplies TheraSkin to us under a supply and distribution agreement that gives us exclusive rights to sell TheraSkin in the United States. TheraSkin is indicated for use on all external skin tissue wounds, including but not limited to difficult to heal diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, dehisced surgical wounds, necrotizing fasciitis, burns, Mohs and wounds with exposed structures.

Therion®

Therion is indicated for use as a cover and barrier for homologous use for wound care and surgical procedures. Therion is a dehydrated and terminally sterilized chorioamniotic allograft derived from human placental membrane and is regulated by the FDA as a Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Product. CryoLife processes and supplies Therion to us under a supply and distribution agreement that gives us exclusive rights to distribute the product in the United States. CryoLife processes Therion using a proprietary process that removes the maternal-derived decidua cells from the placental membrane, leaving the amnion and chorion layers in their native configuration.

TheraGenesis®

TheraGenesis is a Bilayer Wound Matrix and Meshed Bilayer Wound Matrix consisting of a porcine collagen sponge layer and a silicone film layer that provides a scaffold for cellular invasion and capillary growth for management of wounds including partial and full-thickness wounds, chronic wounds, surgical wounds, trauma wounds and draining wounds. We obtain TheraGenesis under an exclusive supply and distribution agreement with Gunze Limited that gives us exclusive rights to distribute the product in the United States.

Sales and Distribution; Reportable Segments

In the United States, we sell our products through our direct sales force, in addition to a network of commissioned agents assisted by Misonix personnel. Outside of the United States, we sell BoneScalpel and SonaStar through distributors who then resell the products to hospitals. We sell to all major markets in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Africa.

We manufacture and sell our products in two global reportable business segments: the Surgical segment and the Wound segment. Our sales force also operates as two segments, Surgical and Wound Care.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

In March of 2020, the World Health Organization designated the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) as a global pandemic. In March of 2020, the impact of COVID-19 and related actions to attempt to control its spread began to impact our consolidated operating results. Principally beginning in March 2020, year-over-year consolidated revenue trends began to weaken rapidly and materially. This trend continued through the end of our fiscal year ended June 30, 2020. While we have seen some gradual improvements in consolidated operating results during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, in part, due to elective surgical procedure volumes returning to pre-COVID-19 levels in some jurisdictions, several jurisdictions are experiencing new increases in the rate of infection by COVID-19 and have begun to divert resources to treat COVID-19 patients and re-defer elective surgical procedures.

We continue to execute on our business continuity plans and our crisis management response to address the challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the course of the pandemic, our headquarters have generally remained open, with certain essential employees continuing to work in our facilities. We are generally following the requirements and protocols published by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization, and state and local governments and we continue to monitor the latest public health and government guidance related to COVID-19, including vaccine availability to our employees and protocols for social distancing and wearing of masks within our facilities. As a result of this guidance, we have begun to lift the actions put in place as part of our business continuity plans, including work from home requirements and travel restrictions. We cannot be certain, however, that we will not be required or encouraged to implement additional restrictions as new variants of the virus arise, any of which may have an adverse effect on our business. As of the date of this filing, we do not believe our work from home protocol has adversely affected our internal controls, financial reporting systems or our operations.

Our sales teams are focused on how to meet changing needs of our customers in this environment.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced a disruption to our global supply chain of our products and a decrease in sales due to a decrease in elective surgical procedures, as described in more detail below. While this disruption began to alleviate during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 and continues to gradually improve, we could experience further variable impacts on our business if a resurgence of the virus or variants thereof emerge, elective procedures continue to be deferred or disruptions in the global supply chain worsen. The ultimate effect of these disruptions, including the extent of their adverse effect on our financial and operational results, will be impacted by the length of time that such disruptions continue, which will, in turn, depend on the currently unknown duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, including as variants of the virus arise and put stress on the healthcare system, the efficacy of any vaccines and related distributions, the number of cases presenting in the jurisdictions in which we operate, and the effect of governmental regulations and other restrictions that might be imposed in response to the pandemic.

Due to these effects and measures, we have experienced and may continue to experience significant and unpredictable reductions in the demand for our products as healthcare customers diverted medical resources and priorities towards the treatment of that disease. In addition, our customers may delay, cancel, or redirect planned capital expenditures in order to focus resources on COVID-19 or in response to economic disruption related to COVID-19. For example, as mentioned above, we have experienced and may continue to experience a significant decline in procedure volume in the U.S., as healthcare systems diverted resources to meet the increasing demands of managing COVID-19. As mentioned above, while many countries are past their initial peak with COVID-19, many regions are now experiencing new increases in the rate of infection by COVID-19. To the extent individuals and hospital systems further de-prioritize, delay or cancel elective medical procedures, our business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations will further be negatively affected.

Capital markets and worldwide economies have also been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could cause a local and/or global economic recession. Such economic recession could have a material adverse effect on our long-term business as hospitals and surgical centers curtail and reduce capital and overall spending. The COVID-19 pandemic and local actions, such as “shelter-in-place” orders and restrictions on our salesforce’s ability to travel and access our customers or temporary closures of our facilities or the facilities of our suppliers and their contract manufacturers, could further significantly reduce our sales and our ability to ship our products and supply our customers. We are continuing to monitor closely indications that several jurisdictions are experiencing new increases in the rate of infection by COVID-19, which could result in further mitigation efforts, the impact of these new increases on all aspects of our business and geographies, including its impact on our customers, employees, suppliers, business partners, and distribution channels. Any of these events could negatively impact the number of surgical procedures performed using our products and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. There are certain limitations on our ability to mitigate the adverse financial impact of these items, including the fixed costs of our businesses. COVID-19 also makes it more challenging for us to estimate the future performance of our businesses, particularly over the near to medium term.

The extent to which the COVID-19 global pandemic impacts our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict; these developments include, but are not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions taken to contain the virus or address its impact including vaccine distribution and efficacy, U.S. and foreign government actions to respond to the reduction in global economic activity, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, we may continue to experience materially adverse impacts on our financial condition and results of operations. The duration and severity of the resulting economic downturn and the broader impact that COVID-19 could have on our business, financial condition and operating results remains highly uncertain.

For more information, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors- “Our business and operations could be adversely affected by health epidemics, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic, impacting the markets and communities in which we and our customers operate” and “The COVID-19 global pandemic has disrupted our operations and if we are unable to re-commence normal operations in the near-term, we may be out of compliance with certain covenants in our debt facilities.”

Impact of Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted in March 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act and related rules and guidelines include several significant provisions, including delaying certain payroll tax payments, mandatory transition tax payments, and estimated income tax payments that we are deferring to future periods. While the CARES Act contains these and various other corporate tax provisions; we do not expect these provisions to materially impact our current tax provision.

On April 5, 2020, we applied for an unsecured $5.2 million loan under the Paycheck Protection Program, or the PPP Loan. The Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, was established under CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. On April 10, 2020, the PPP loan was approved and funded. We entered into a promissory note with J.P, Morgan Chase evidencing the unsecured $5.2 million loan. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, we used the proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs. In October 2020, the SBA released guidance that allows borrowers an additional ten months of deferral of the start of principal and interest payments. Therefore, interest and principal payments are now deferred for the first sixteen months of the loan. Thereafter, monthly interest and principal payments are due until the loan is fully satisfied at the end of 24 months. The promissory note has a maturity date of April 4, 2022 and accrues interest at an annual rate of 0.98%. The promissory note evidencing the PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and provisions of the promissory note. The PPP permits borrowers to apply for forgiveness for some or all of the loans based on meeting certain criteria. On May 26, 2021, we applied to the SBA for forgiveness of the loan. Such application is still outstanding.

Other than as outlined above, we do not currently expect the CARES Act to have a material impact on our financial results, including on our annual estimated effective tax rate or on our liquidity. We will continue to monitor and assess the impact the CARES Act may have on our business and financial results.

Customers

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no customers whose sales accounted for more than 10% of our revenues.

Research & Development

As of June 30, 2021, our research and development organization consisted of a staff of 12 employees including engineers and technical and support personnel. Our in-house technical expertise includes mechanical engineering, acoustics, electrical engineering, software development and product design. The research and development group focuses principally on developing new products and supporting existing products.

During fiscal 2021 and 2020, we incurred R&D expenses of $5.0 million and $4.9 million, or 6.8% and 7.9% of revenue, respectively.

Revenue by Region

We receive revenues from various regions throughout the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, Asia and Asia Pacific, and South America. Our sales made in the United States are made primarily through our direct sales force and some distributors. Our sales outside the United States are made through distributors. The following is an analysis of our revenue from continuing operations by geographic region:

	For the years ended
	June 30,
	2021		2020		Net Change
Domestic	$	60,657,224	$	48,552,953		24.9	%
International		13,366,849		13,930,698		-4.0	%
Total	$	74,024,073	$	62,483,651		18.5	%

Our international sales include a concentration in China, aggregating to $2.0 million and $3.1 million for fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Manufacturing and Supply

We largely manufacture and assemble our medical device products at our production facility located in Farmingdale, New York. Our products include components manufactured by other companies in the United States. We are dependent for some of the components used within our medical device products upon some single source suppliers and have worked to develop multi-sourced suppliers. We do not have long-term supply agreements. We may encounter difficulty in obtaining materials, supplies and components adequate for our anticipated short-term needs. In addition, supply disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic may increase the price of, and make more difficult to obtain, materials, supplies or components.

Competition

Competition in the medical device products industry is rigorous. We believe that the principal competitive factors in our markets are product features, value-added solutions, reliability, clinical evidence, reimbursement coverage, and price. Customer support, reputation, and efficient distribution are also important factors. The speed with which we can develop products, complete clinical testing and regulatory clearance processes and supply commercial quantities of our products to the market are therefore important competitive factors. We compete with many companies having more significant capital resources, larger research laboratories and more extensive distribution systems than we do. Some of our major competitors are Johnson & Johnson, Integra Life Sciences, Inc., Söering, Stryker Corporation, Smith & Nephew, for our Surgical segment, and MiMedx, Smith & Nephew, Integra Life Sciences and Organogenesis for our Wound segment.

Regulatory Requirements

Our products are subject to extensive regulation particularly as to safety, efficacy, and adherence to FDA Quality System Regulations, or QSR, and related manufacturing standards. Medical device products are also subject to other governmental agency regulations of foreign agencies abroad.

United States

The FDA regulates the design, development, research, preclinical and clinical testing, introduction, manufacture, advertising, labeling, packaging, marketing, distribution, import and export, and record keeping of medical devices in order to ensure that those sold in the United States are safe and effective for their intended use. Non-compliance with applicable requirements can result in import detentions, fines, civil and administrative penalties, injunctions, suspension or loss of regulatory approvals, recall or seizure of products, operating restrictions, refusal of the government to approve product export applications or allow us to enter into supply contracts, and criminal prosecution.

Unless an exemption applies, the FDA requires that a manufacturer introducing a new medical device or a new indication for use of an existing medical device obtain either a Section 510(k) premarket notification clearance or a premarket approval, or PMA, before introducing it into the U.S. market. The type of marketing authorization is generally linked to the classification of the device. The FDA classifies medical devices into one of three classes (Class I, II or III) based on the degree of risk the FDA determines to be associated with a device and the level of regulatory control deemed necessary to ensure the device’s safety and effectiveness. Our products currently marketed in the United States are marketed pursuant to 510(k) pre-marketing clearances and are either Class I or Class II devices. The process of obtaining a Section 510(k) clearance generally requires the submission of performance data and often clinical data, which in some cases can be extensive, to demonstrate that the device is “substantially equivalent” to a device that was on the market before 1976 or to a device that has been found by the FDA to be “substantially equivalent” to such a pre-1976 device, a predecessor device is referred to as “predicate device.” As a result, FDA clearance requirements may extend the development process for a considerable length of time. In addition, in some cases, the FDA may require additional review by an advisory panel, which can further lengthen the process. The PMA process, which is reserved for new devices that are not substantially equivalent to any predicate device and for high-risk devices or those that are used to support or sustain human life, may take several years and requires the submission of extensive performance and clinical information.

As a medical device manufacturer, our manufacturing facilities are subject to inspection on a routine basis by the FDA. We are required to adhere to applicable regulations setting forth detailed Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, requirements, as set forth in the QSR, which require manufacturers, including our third-party manufacturers, to follow stringent design, testing, control, documentation, and other quality assurance procedures during all phases of the design and manufacturing process. Noncompliance with these standards can result in, among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, recalls or seizures of products, total or partial suspension of production, refusal of the government to grant 510(k) clearance or PMA approval of devices, withdrawal of marketing approvals and criminal prosecutions.

We must also comply with post-market surveillance regulations, including medical device reporting, or MDR, requirements, which require that we review and report to the FDA any incident in which our products may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury. We must also report any incident in which our product has malfunctioned if that malfunction would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if it were to recur.

Our labeling and promotional activities in the U.S. are also subject to scrutiny by the FDA and, in certain circumstances, by the Federal Trade Commission. Medical devices approved or cleared by the FDA may not be promoted for unapproved or uncleared uses, otherwise known as “off-label” promotion. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of off-label uses, and a company that is found to have improperly promoted off-label uses may be subject to significant liability, including substantial monetary penalties and criminal prosecution.

International

Sales of medical devices outside the United States are subject to regulatory requirements that vary widely from country to country.

EEA

In the European Economic Area, (which is comprised of the 27 Member States of the European Union plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein), or EEA, manufacturers of medical devices need to comply with the Essential Requirements laid out in Annex I to the EU Medical Devices Directive (Council Directive 93/42/EEC). Compliance with these requirements is a prerequisite to be able to affix the CE mark to medical devices, without which they cannot be marketed or sold in the EEA.

The UK is currently in a transition period following the No-Deal Brexit, which ended on December 31, 2020. The UK’s post-Brexit medical device regulatory system, the Medicines and Medical Devices Act 2021, passed into law on February 11, 2021. Guidance issued outlines a registration process where a manufacturer will contract a UK Responsible Person to assess the quality system in a similar manner to the EU MDD Notified Body. Compliance with developing UK regulations and a verification of compliance by the UK Responsible Person will be a requirement for products to be marketed or sold in the UK. Misonix continues to monitor the developing regulatory environment in the UK closely.

All manufacturers placing medical devices into the market in the EEA must comply with the EU Medical Device Vigilance System. Under this system, incidents must be reported to the relevant authorities of the Member States of the EEA, and manufacturers are subject to extensive regulation particularly as to safety, efficacy and adherence to ISO13485: 2016 Medical Devices – Quality Management Systems Regulation and related manufacturing standards.

On April 5, 2017, the European Parliament passed the Medical Devices Regulation, which repeals and replaces the EU Medical Devices Directive. Unlike directives, which must be implemented into the national laws of the EEA member States, the regulations would be directly applicable (i.e., without the need for adoption of EEA member State laws implementing them) in all EEA member States and are intended to eliminate current differences in the regulation of medical devices among EEA member States. The Medical Devices Regulation, among other things, is intended to establish a uniform, transparent, predictable and sustainable regulatory framework across the EEA for medical devices and in vitro diagnostic devices and ensure a high level of safety and health while supporting innovation. The initial effective date of the Medical Devices Regulation was May 26, 2020 but was extended as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic. New products placed on the market after May 26, 2021 must comply with the MDR. While we are able to continue marketing our currently CE-marked products in the EEA until the associated CE mark certificates expire, acquiring approvals for new products or renewing our existing CE mark certificates once these expire could be more challenging and costly.

Other Regulatory Bodies

Our devices are sold in multiple other countries and often need to be registered with local regulatory bodies such as the National Medical Products Administration in China (NMPA), Health Canada (HC), the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia, and the Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (ANVISA) in Brazil.

Other Healthcare Laws

We are subject to a number of laws and regulations that may restrict our business practices, including, without limitation, anti-kickback, false claims, physician payment transparency and data privacy and security laws. The government has interpreted these laws broadly to apply to the marketing and sales activities of manufacturers and distributors like us.

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or FCPA. The FCPA prohibits U.S. companies and their representatives from processing, offering, or making payments of money or anything of value to foreign officials with the intent to obtain or retain business or seek a business advantage. In certain countries, the health care professionals we or our distributors regularly interact with may meet the definition of a foreign government official for the purposes of the FCPA. Our international activities create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by our employees, consultants and agents, including distributors, even though they may not always be subject to our control. Our existing safeguards may prove to be less than effective, and our employees, consultants, and agents may engage in conduct for which we might be held responsible. A determination that our operations or activities are not, or were not, in compliance with U.S. or foreign laws or regulations could result in the imposition of substantial fines, interruptions of business, loss of suppliers, vendor or other third-party relationships, termination of necessary licenses or permits, and legal or equitable sanctions. Other internal or governmental investigations or legal or regulatory proceedings, including lawsuits brought by private litigants, may also follow as a consequence.

ISO Standards

We also operate and maintain a Quality Management System that complies with the requirements of International Standards ISO 13485: 2016 Medical Devices – Quality Management Systems, including US FDA Title 21 CFR Part 820 Quality System Regulation. This system encompasses the principles of enhancing customer satisfaction through the effective application of processes for control, monitoring, and continual improvement, which is designed to ensure that we consistently meet or exceed customer expectations and applicable statutory/regulatory requirements.

Trademarks, Patents, and Copyrights

Patents, trademarks and other intangible proprietary rights are material to our business and our ability to compete effectively with other companies. We also rely upon trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovations, and licensing opportunities to develop, maintain and strengthen our competitive position. We pursue a policy of generally obtaining patent protection in both the U.S. and overseas for patentable subject matter in our products and also attempt to review third-party patents and patent applications to the extent publicly available to develop an effective patent strategy, avoid infringement of third-party patents, identify licensing opportunities and monitor the patent claims of others.

We currently own 69 U.S. patents and 57 foreign patents. In addition, we have 17 pending U.S. patent applications and 53 pending foreign patent applications. Patents relating to our Nexus product are scheduled to expire in 2028 and 2040. Other patents that we consider important to our business will expire from 2025 to 2037, although we do not currently believe that the expiration of other patents will have a material effect on our business.

We also hold 19 U.S. and 7 foreign registered trademarks protecting the Misonix name and our product names.

We will continue to seek patent, trademark, and copyright protection as we deem advisable to protect the markets for our products and to support our research and development efforts.

Third Party Coverage and Reimbursement

Healthcare providers that purchase medical devices generally rely on third-party payors, including, in the U.S., the Medicare and Medicaid programs and private payors, such as health maintenance organizations, preferred provider organizations, indemnity health insurers, employer group health insurance programs and managed care plans, to reimburse all or part of the cost of the products. As a result, demand for our products is and will continue to be dependent in part on the coverage and reimbursement policies of these payors. The manner in which reimbursement is sought and obtained varies based upon the type of payor involved and the setting in which the product is furnished and utilized. Reimbursement from Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payors may be subject to periodic adjustments as a result of legislative, regulatory and policy changes, as well as budgetary pressures. Possible reductions in, or eliminations of, coverage or reimbursement by third-party payors, or denial of, or provision of uneconomical reimbursement for new products may affect our customers’ revenue and ability to purchase our products. Any changes in the healthcare regulatory, payment or enforcement landscape relative to our customers’ healthcare services have the potential to significantly affect our operations and revenue.

Backlog

As of June 30, 2021, our backlog (firm orders that have not yet been shipped) was approximately $0.4 million as compared to $0.3 million as of June 30, 2020.

We ship most of our products on a just-in-time basis, which generally results in low levels of backlog.

Employees

As of June 30, 2021, we employed a total of 281 full-time employees. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good.

Item 1A Risk Factors

In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report and the exhibits hereto, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating our business. Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. This section contains forward-looking statements. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The following list sets forth many, but not all, of the factors that could affect our ability to achieve results discussed in any forward-looking statement. Investors should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and should not consider this list to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.

Risks Related to the Merger with Bioventus

The pendency of the merger with Bioventus may have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and stock price.

On July 29, 2021, we entered into the merger agreement with Bioventus, pursuant to which Bioventus will, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the merger agreement, acquire Misonix. We and Bioventus have operated and, until the completion of the merger, will continue to operate independently. Uncertainty about the merger may adversely affect our revenue, operating results and stock price, whether or not the merger is completed. For example, strategic partners, customers, suppliers or other business partners may:

	●	delay, defer or cease purchasing goods or services from us or providing goods or services to us;
	●	delay or defer other decisions concerning us;
	●	cease further joint development activities; or
	●	otherwise seek to change the terms on which they do business with us.

The uncertainties around the merger could adversely impact our relationships or contract negotiations with third parties, including our strategic partners, suppliers and other business partners, or those with which we are seeking to establish business relationships. We are subject to additional risks in connection with the announcement and pendency of the merger which could adversely impact our operating results, including:

	●	the pendency and outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against us, our directors and others relating to the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement;
	●	the restrictions imposed on our business and operations pursuant to certain covenants set forth in the merger agreement, which may prevent us from pursuing certain strategic opportunities without Bioventus approval;
	●	during the period that the merger agreement is in effect, except as permitted by certain limited exceptions in the merger agreement or required by their fiduciary duties and subject to the other requirements of the merger agreement, our board of directors may not withdraw or adversely modify its recommendation of approval by our stockholders of the merger, which has the effect of delaying other strategic transactions and may, in some cases, make it impossible to pursue other strategic transactions that are available only for a limited time;
	●	that we may forego opportunities we might otherwise pursue absent the merger;
	●	potential adverse effects on our ability to retain and motivate current employees, and attract and recruit prospective employees who may be uncertain about their future roles and relationships with us following the completion of the merger; and
	●	the diversion of our employees’ and management’s attention due to activities related to the merger, which could otherwise be devoted to other opportunities that may be beneficial to us.

Based on the election of the holders of Misonix common stock, in accordance with the terms of, and subject to election, proration and adjustment procedures set forth in, the merger agreement, the holders of Misonix common stock may receive consideration in the merger in the form of shares of Bioventus common stock. As a result, our stock price has been and will continue to be adversely impacted by any decline in the Bioventus stock price and any adverse developments in the Bioventus business outlook. The Bioventus stock price changes may result from a variety of factors, such as changes in its business operations and outlook, changes in general market and economic conditions, and regulatory considerations. The aggregate portion of the merger consideration payable in cash is fixed at approximately $183 million, such that if Bioventus stock goes up or down, the value of the merger consideration payable will increase or decrease as to the value of Bioventus stock payable and not the portion payable in cash. These factors are beyond our control.

In addition, we have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs, expenses and fees for professional services, other transaction costs and employee retention costs in connection with the merger, and these fees and costs are in many cases payable by us regardless of whether the merger is consummated.

The merger may not be completed, may be delayed or may be approved subject to materially burdensome conditions, any of which may adversely affect our business, operating results and stock price. Our and Bioventus’ obligations to consummate the merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to the (i) approval of the issuance of Bioventus common stock in connection with the First Merger by the stockholders of Bioventus, (ii) the adoption of the merger agreement by the stockholders of Misonix, (iii) the absence of any law or order by any governmental entity in effect that seeks to enjoin, make illegal, or prevent the consummation of the merger, (iv) Nasdaq’s approval of the shares of Bioventus common stock to be issued in the First Merger being listed on the Nasdaq, (v) any waiting period applicable to the merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (“HSR Act”) has expired or been terminated, (vi) subject to certain materiality exceptions, the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of each of Bioventus and Misonix contained in the merger agreement and the compliance by each party with the covenants contained in the merger agreement, (vii) the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to each of Bioventus and Misonix and (viii) the registration statement registering the shares of Bioventus common stock to be issued in the First Merger becoming effective. There can be no assurance that the conditions to the completion of the Merger will be satisfied in a timely manner, or at all. Although we and Bioventus have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to obtain the governmental approval required under the HSR Act, there can be no assurance that this approval will be obtained, and the government may impose conditions on the completion, or require changes to the terms of, the Mergers. Any such conditions or changes could have the effect of jeopardizing or delaying completion of the Mergers. Any delay in completing the Mergers may significantly affect the synergies projected to result from the Mergers and other benefits that the parties expect to achieve if the Merger is successfully completed. If the Merger is not completed by January 31, 2022 (subject to automatic extension until March 31, 2022 if the only outstanding closing condition is approval under the HSR Act), either we or Bioventus may choose to terminate the merger agreement. We or Bioventus may also elect to terminate the merger agreement in certain other circumstances, and the parties can mutually decide to terminate the merger agreement at any time prior to the closing of the Mergers, before or after stockholder approval, as applicable.

Failure to complete the Mergers could negatively affect our business, results of operations and stock price.

If the merger is not completed, our stock price could fall to the extent that our current price reflects an assumption that the merger will be completed. Furthermore, if the merger is not completed, we may suffer other consequences that could adversely affect our business, results of operations and stock price, including, but not limited to:

	●	we could be required to pay a termination fee of $20,661,000 to Bioventus under certain circumstances as described in the merger agreement;
	●	we would have incurred significant costs in connection with the merger that we would be unable to recover, including transaction, legal, employee-related and other costs;
	●	we may be subject to legal proceedings related to the merger;
	●	the failure of the merger to be consummated may result in negative publicity and a negative impression of us in the investment community;
	●	disruptions to our business resulting from the announcement and pendency of the merger, including any adverse changes in our relationships with our customers, strategic partners, suppliers, licensees, other business partners and employees, may continue or intensify in the event the merger is not consummated;
	●	we may not be able to take advantage of alternative business opportunities or effectively respond to competitive pressures; and
	●	we may experience an increase in employee departures.

Litigation that may be filed against us or Bioventus could prevent or delay, or result in the payment of damages following, the completion of the merger.

We and members of our board of directors may in the future be parties, among others, to various claims and litigation related to the pending merger, including putative stockholder class actions. Among other remedies, the plaintiffs in such potential future matters could seek to enjoin the merger. The results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict, and could delay or prevent the merger from becoming effective in a timely manner. Moreover, future litigation could be, time consuming and expensive, could divert management’s attention away from their regular business, and, if any potential future lawsuit is adversely resolved, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

One of the conditions to the closing of the Merger is that no applicable governmental entity having jurisdiction over Misonix, Bioventus or either of the merger subs shall have issued an order, decision, judgment, writ, injunction, stipulation, award, or decree, preventing, enjoining or making illegal the consummation of the Merger that remains in effect. Consequently, if any plaintiffs secure injunctive or other relief prohibiting, delaying or otherwise adversely affecting our and/or Bioventus’ ability to complete the merger on the terms contemplated by the merger agreement, then such injunctive or other relief may prevent the Mergers from becoming effective in a timely manner, or at all.

The merger agreement contains provisions that could make it difficult for a third party to acquire us prior to the completion of the proposed acquisition.

The merger agreement contains restrictions on our ability to obtain a third-party proposal for an acquisition of Misonix. These provisions include our agreement not to solicit or initiate any additional discussions with third parties regarding other proposals to acquire us, as well as restrictions on our ability to respond to such proposals, subject to fulfilment of certain fiduciary requirements of our board of directors. The merger agreement also contains certain termination rights, including, under certain circumstances, a requirement for us to pay to Bioventus a termination fee of $20,661,000.

These provisions might discourage an otherwise-interested third-party from considering or proposing an acquisition of Misonix, even one that may be deemed of greater value to our stockholders than the proposed acquisition. Furthermore, even if a third-party elects to propose an acquisition, the concept of a termination fee may result in that third-party offering a lower value to our stockholders than such third-party might otherwise have offered.

Our executive officers and directors may have interests in the mergers that are different from, or in addition to, those of our stockholders generally.

Our executive officers and directors may have interests in the proposed acquisition that are different from, or are in addition to, those of our stockholders generally. These interests include direct or indirect ownership of our common stock, stock options and restricted stock, and the potential receipt of change in control or other severance payments in connection with the consummation of the proposed acquisition.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our business and operations could be adversely affected by health epidemics, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which is materially impacting the markets and communities in which we and our customers operate.

We face various risks related to health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks, such as the global outbreak of COVID-19. The COVID-19 global pandemic has negatively affected the global economy, disrupted medical spending and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. As a result, we experienced a significant decline in revenue during March 2020. We expect the COVID-19 global pandemic to continue to have a material adverse effect on our business including our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business, including our ability to execute our near-term and long-term business strategies and initiatives in the expected time frame, will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict or assess, including the duration and scope of the pandemic; the negative effect it may have on global and regional economies and economic activity; changes in customers and consumer behavior, including cancellations of elective surgical procedures; actions governments, businesses and individuals take in response to the pandemic; and how quickly economies recover after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides.

As a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, we have experienced a disruption in our supply chain and a decrease in sales due to a decrease in elective surgical procedures. Our products are sensitive to reductions in deferrable and emergent medical procedures, and, as hospital systems prioritize treatment of COVID-19 patients and otherwise comply with government guidelines, certain medical procedures have been suspended or postponed in many of the markets where our products are marketed and sold, which has caused a reduction in sales of these products. Although Several jurisdictions are experiencing new increases in the rate of infection by COVID-19 and have begun to further divert resources to treat COVID-19 patients and re-defer elective surgical procedures.

In addition, the COVID-19 outbreak has caused hospitals to restrict access to non-essential personnel, including family and friends of infected patients. As a result, our sales force is not able to access a significant portion of the market to generate new sales orders. COVID-19 could also adversely impact our ability to retain key employees and the continued service and availability of skilled personnel necessary to run our operations, including our executive officers and other members of our management team, as well as the ability of our third-party suppliers, manufacturers and distributors to retain their key employees. To the extent our management or other personnel are impacted in significant numbers by COVID-19 and are not available to perform their job duties, we could experience delays in, or the suspension of, our operations and other important commercial functions.

We continue to work with our stakeholders (including customers, employees, consumers, suppliers, business partners and local communities) to responsibly address this global pandemic. We are continuing to monitor the situation and assess possible implications to our business and our stakeholders and plan to take appropriate actions to mitigate adverse consequences. We cannot assure that we will be successful in any such mitigation efforts. The extent and duration of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as information is rapidly evolving with respect to the duration and severity of the pandemic. Many regions, including those that had experienced declines in infection rates, are now seeing increased infections and deaths resulting from COVID-19. At this point, we cannot reasonably estimate the duration and severity of the COVID-19 global pandemic, or its overall impact on our business. Even after the COVID-19 global pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse effects on our business as a result of any economic recession or depression that has occurred or may occur in the future. The effects of COVID-19 have also affected financial markets and corporate credit markets, which could adversely affect our ability to access financing on acceptable terms, or at all. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described below.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has disrupted our operations and if we are unable to re-commence normal operations in the near-term, we may be out of compliance with certain covenants in our debt facilities.

Under the terms of certain of our debt facilities with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $46 million of indebtedness as of June 30, 2021, we are required to comply with covenants, such as maintaining minimum revenue and EBITDA levels. As a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, our business operations have been disrupted and if we are unable to re-commence normal operations in the near-term, we may be out of compliance with certain of those covenants.

There can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain additional waivers from the lenders under these facilities if we are unable to comply with covenants in a timely manner, on acceptable terms or at all. If we are not able to obtain a covenant waiver under any one or more of our debt facilities, we will be in default of such agreements, which could result in cross defaults to our other debt agreements. As a consequence, we would need to refinance or repay the applicable debt facility or facilities and would be required to raise additional debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay such facility or facilities. If we are unable to obtain a covenant waiver in the future under any one or more of these debt facilities, there can be no assurance that we would be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay such facility or facilities.

Covenant waivers may lead to fees associated with obtaining the waiver, increased costs, increased interest rates, additional restrictive covenants and other available lender protections that would be applicable to us under these debt facilities, and such increased costs, restrictions and modifications may vary among debt facilities. Our ability to provide additional lender protections under these facilities will be limited by the restrictions in our indebtedness.

With respect to each of these debt facilities, if we cannot obtain a waiver or refinance or repay such debt facilities, we would be in default under such facilities, which could lead to an acceleration of the indebtedness under such debt facilities. In turn, this could lead to an event of default and potential acceleration of amounts due under all of our outstanding debt. As a result, the failure to obtain the covenant waivers described above would have a material adverse effect on our business.

We have a recent history of net losses.

We have experienced losses from continuing operations during the last four fiscal years. The loss from continuing operations before income taxes was approximately $14.3 million for the 2021 fiscal year, and the accumulated deficit was approximately $53.8 million as of June 30, 2021. Our losses from continuing operations were further adversely impacted due to the COVID global pandemic. As a result of the pandemic, we experienced a significant decline in revenue since March 2020. There can be no assurance that we will be able to return to operating profitability in the near-term or at all. As of June 30, 2021, we had a cash balance of approximately $31.0 million. Although we believe this amount is sufficient to finance our operations for at least the next 12 months, there can be no assurance that this will provide sufficient liquidity for longer-term operations or initiatives. Our cash flows may be affected by a number of factors, including changing market conditions, market acceptance of our new and existing products, and the loss of one or more key customers. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional capital if the need arises. The failure to raise any necessary additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all, may have a material adverse effect on our future business and results of operations.

We will require a significant amount of cash to service our current indebtedness and any future indebtedness that we incur. This cash may not be readily available to us.

Our ability to make payments on, or repay or refinance, our indebtedness and fund planned capital expenditures will depend largely upon our future operating performance. Our future performance, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot be certain we will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available in amounts sufficient to enable us to pay any indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs.

We are subject to extensive medical device regulation, that may impede or hinder the approval process for our products and, in some cases, may not ultimately result in approval or may result in the recall or seizure of previously approved products.

Our medical devices, wound products, and our business activities are subject to rigorous regulation, including by the FDA, the DOJ and numerous other federal, state and foreign governmental authorities. Certain state governments and the federal government have enacted legislation aimed at increasing transparency of our interactions with health care providers. Any failure to comply with these legal and regulatory requirements could negatively affect our business.

These regulations include regulations pursuant to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or the FDC Act, by the FDA and comparable agencies in foreign countries, and by other regulatory agencies and governing bodies. Under the FDC Act, medical devices must receive FDA clearance or approval before they can be commercially marketed in the U.S. In addition, most major markets for medical devices outside the U.S. require clearance, approval or compliance with certain standards before a product can be commercially marketed. The process of obtaining marketing approval or clearance from the FDA for new products, or with respect to enhancements or modifications to existing products, could:

	●	take a significant amount of time;

	●	require the expenditure of substantial resources;

	●	involve rigorous pre-clinical and clinical testing;

	●	require changes to the products; and

	●	result in limitations on the proposed uses of the products

Marketing approvals or clearances are not the only risk. The FDA, and other regulatory bodies, also can require the withdrawal of an approved or cleared product from commercial distribution due to failure to comply with regulatory standards or the occurrence of unforeseen problems.

As a medical device manufacturer, we are required to register with the FDA and are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA for compliance with the FDA’s Quality System Regulation requirements, which require manufacturers of medical devices to adhere to certain regulations, including testing, quality control and documentation procedures. In addition, FDA regulations require us to provide information to the FDA whenever there is evidence that reasonably suggests that a medical device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or, if a malfunction were to occur, could cause or contribute to a death or serious injury. Compliance with applicable regulatory requirements is subject to continual review and is rigorously monitored through periodic inspections by the FDA. In the European Union and China, we are required to maintain certain ISO certifications in order to sell our products and must undergo periodic inspections by notified bodies to obtain and maintain these certifications. Failure to meet regulatory quality standards could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Consequently, there can be no assurance that we will receive the required clearances from the FDA or other regulatory bodies for new products or modifications to existing products on a timely basis or that any FDA approval will not be subsequently withdrawn. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product or manufacturer could result in fines, delays or suspensions of regulatory clearances, seizures or recalls of products, operating restrictions and/or criminal prosecution. The failure to receive product approval clearance on a timely basis, suspensions of regulatory clearances, seizures or recalls of products or the withdrawal of product approval by the FDA or other regulatory bodies could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We face intense competition and may not be able to keep pace with the rapid technological changes in the medical device industry.

The medical device and wound healing product markets are highly competitive. We encounter significant competition across our product lines and in each market in which our products are sold from various medical device companies and other providers of human allografts and skin substitutes, most of which have greater financial and marketing resources than we do.

Additionally, the medical device product market is characterized by extensive research and development and rapid technological change. Developments by other companies of new or improved products, processes or technology may make our products or proposed products obsolete or less competitive and may negatively impact our revenues. In some cases, companies may attempt to copy our designs illegally. We are required to devote continued efforts and financial resources to develop or acquire scientifically advanced technologies and products, apply our technologies cost-effectively across product lines and markets, attract and retain skilled development personnel, obtain patent and other protection for our technology and products, obtain required regulatory and reimbursement approvals and successfully manufacture and market our products. Failure to develop new products or enhance existing products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights effectively.

Patents, trademarks and other intangible proprietary rights are and will be essential to our business and our ability to compete effectively with other companies. We will also rely upon trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovations, strategic alliances and licensing opportunities to develop, maintain and strengthen our competitive position. We pursue a policy of generally obtaining patent protection in both the U.S. and overseas for patentable subject matter of our proprietary devices and also attempt to review third-party patents and patent applications to the extent publicly available to develop an effective patent strategy, avoid infringement of third-party patents, identify licensing opportunities and monitor the patent claims of others. We also operate in an industry that is susceptible to significant intellectual property litigation and it has been common for companies in the medical device field to challenge aggressively the patent rights of other companies in order to prevent the marketing of new devices. Intellectual property litigation is expensive, complex, and lengthy and its outcome is difficult to predict. Future patent litigation may result in significant royalty or other payments or injunctions that can prevent the sale of products and may significantly divert the attention of our technical and management personnel.

In addition, we may have to take legal action in the future to protect our patents, trade secrets, or know-how or to assert our intellectual property rights against claimed infringement by others. Any such legal action could be costly and time consuming to us. and no assurances can be made that any lawsuit will be successful.

The invalidation of key patents or proprietary rights that we own, or an unsuccessful outcome in lawsuits to protect our intellectual property, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In the event that our right to market any of our products is successfully challenged, or if we fail to obtain a required license or are unable to design around a patent, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

eSecurity breaches, loss of data and other disruptions could compromise sensitive information related to our business, prevent us from accessing critical information or expose us to liability, which could adversely affect our business and reputation.

In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including patient health information, personally identifiable information about our employees, intellectual property, and proprietary business information. We manage and maintain applications and data utilizing on-site and off-site systems. These applications and data encompass a wide variety of business-critical information including research and development information, commercial information and business and financial information.

The secure processing, storage, maintenance and transmission of this critical information is vital to our operations and business strategy, and we devote resources to protecting such information. Although we take measures to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access or disclosure, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers, viruses, breaches or interruptions due to employee error or malfeasance, terrorist attacks, hurricanes, fire, flood, other natural disasters, power loss, computer systems failure, data network failure, internet failure, or lapses in compliance with privacy and security mandates. Any such virus, breach or interruption could compromise our networks and the information stored there could be accessed by unauthorized parties, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, government enforcement actions and regulatory penalties. Unauthorized access, loss or dissemination could also interrupt our operations, including our ability to receive and ship orders from customers, bill our customers, provide customer support services, conduct research and development activities, process and prepare company financial information, manage various general and administrative aspects of our business and damage our reputation, any of which could adversely affect our business.

Future product liability claims, and other litigation may adversely affect our business, reputation, and ability to attract and retain customers.

The design, manufacture, and marketing of our medical device products and human skin allografts entail an inherent risk of product liability claims. A number of factors could result in an unsafe condition or injury to, or death of, a patient with respect to these or other products that we manufacture or sell, including component failures, manufacturing flaws, design defects or inadequate disclosure of product-related risks or product-related information. These factors could result in product liability claims, a recall of one or more of our products or a safety alert relating to one or more of our products. Product liability claims may be brought by individuals or by groups seeking to represent a class.

Anyone or any company can bring an action against Misonix, including private securities litigation and shareholder derivative suits, and adverse litigation results could affect our business.

Our judicial system allows anyone, including shareholders, to bring a claim against us and force us to defend our company, even if the claim is baseless.

The defense may or may not be covered by our insurance, the result of which could ultimately create a burden on us dependent upon the outcome.

Litigation can be lengthy, expensive, and disruptive to our operations, and results cannot be predicted with certainty. An adverse decision could result in monetary damages or injunctive relief that could affect our financial condition or results of operations.

The medical device industry is characterized by extensive litigation and, from time to time, we are the subject of various claims. Regardless of outcome, such claims are expensive to defend and divert management and operating personnel from other business issues. A successful claim or claims against us could result in payment of significant monetary damages and/or injunctive relief. As an example, on March 23, 2017, our former distributor in China, Cicel (Beijing) Science & Technology Co., Ltd., filed a lawsuit against us and certain of our officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, alleging that we improperly terminated our contract with the former distributor. Fact discovery in the case is ongoing, and there is no trial date currently set. We believe that we have various legal and factual defenses to the allegations in the complaint and intend to defend the action vigorously.

Violation of anti-corruption laws could subject us to significant penalties, which could materially and adversely affect our business and liquidity.

We are required to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, and similar anti-corruption laws in other jurisdictions around the world where we do business. Compliance with these laws has been subject to increasing focus and activity by regulatory authorities in recent years.

With the assistance of outside counsel, beginning in 2016 we conducted a voluntary investigation into the business practices of Cicel (Beijing) Science & Technology Co., Ltd., the independent Chinese entity that previously distributed our products in China and our knowledge of those business practices, which may have had implications under the FCPA, as well as into various internal control issues identified during the investigation. We did not identify any information through the investigation or otherwise that suggests that our previously reported consolidated financial statements are incorrect. On September 27, 2016 and September 28, 2016, we voluntarily contacted the SEC and the DOJ, respectively, to advise both agencies of these potential issues. Thereafter, we provided documents and information to, and cooperated fully with, the SEC and the DOJ, in their investigations of these matters.

On June 18, 2019, we received a letter from the Division of Enforcement of the SEC advising us that the SEC had concluded its investigation of us and that, based on the information it had as of the date of the letter, it did not intend to recommend an enforcement action by the SEC against us. On August 14, 2019, we received a declination letter from the United States Department of Justice DOJ stating that the DOJ has closed its inquiry into us without any action.

Future actions by our employees, or third-party intermediaries acting on our behalf, in violation of anticorruption laws, including the FCPA, whether carried out in the United States or elsewhere in connection with the conduct of our business may expose us to liability for violations and significant costs and expenses in investigating such actions or defending against civil or criminal charges associated therewith and accordingly may have a material adverse effect on our reputation and our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our future growth is dependent upon the development of new products and line extensions, which requires significant research and development, clinical trials and regulatory approvals, all of which are very expensive and time-consuming and may not result in a commercially viable product.

In order to develop new products and improve current product offerings, we focus our research and development programs largely on the development of next-generation and novel technology offerings across multiple programs and opportunities.

As a part of the regulatory process of obtaining marketing clearance from the FDA for new products, we conduct and participate in numerous clinical trials with a variety of study designs, patient populations and trial endpoints. Unfavorable or inconsistent clinical data from existing or future clinical trials conducted by us, by our competitors or by third parties, or the market’s perception of this clinical data, may adversely impact our ability to obtain product approvals from the FDA, our position in, and share of, the markets in which we participate and our business, financial condition, results of operations or future prospects.

New products may not be accepted by customers in the marketplace.

We are now, and will continue to be, developing new products and introducing them into the market. There can be no assurance that any new product will be accepted by the market. New products are sometimes introduced into the market in a prototype format and may need later revisions or design changes before they operate in a manner to be accepted in the market. As a result of the introduction of new products, there is some risk that revenue expectations may not be met and in some cases the product may not achieve market acceptance.

Consolidation in the healthcare industry could lead to demands for price concessions or our exclusion as a supplier from certain of our significant market segments.

The cost of healthcare has risen significantly over the past decade and numerous initiatives and reforms initiated by legislators, regulators, and third-party payers to curb these costs have resulted in a consolidation trend in the healthcare industry, including hospitals. This in turn has resulted in greater pricing pressures and the exclusion of certain suppliers from important market segments as group purchasing organizations, independent delivery networks and large single accounts continue to consolidate purchasing decisions for some of our hospital customers. We expect that market demand, government regulation, third-party reimbursement policies, and societal pressures will continue to change the worldwide healthcare industry, resulting in further business consolidations and alliances among our customers and competitors, which may reduce competition, exert further downward pressure on the prices of our products and may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We may experience disruption in supply due to our dependence on our suppliers to continue to ship product requirements and our inability to obtain suppliers of certain components for our products.

Our suppliers may encounter problems during manufacturing due to a variety of reasons, including poor business practices, failure to follow specific protocols and procedures, failure to comply with applicable regulations, equipment malfunctions, labor shortages, or environmental factors. In addition, we purchase both raw materials used in most products and finished goods from various suppliers and may have to rely on a single source supplier for certain components of our products where there are no alternatives are available, such as for our product TheraSkin. Although we anticipate that we have adequate sources of supply and/or inventory of these components to handle our production needs for the foreseeable future, if we are unable to secure on a timely basis sufficient quantities of the materials we depend on to manufacture our products, if we encounter delays or contractual or other difficulties in our relationships with these suppliers, or if we cannot find suppliers at an acceptable cost, then the manufacture of our products may be disrupted, which could increase our costs and have a material adverse effect on our business. For example, in fiscal 2020, we experienced certain supply chain disruptions due to suppliers not being able to keep pace with our demand for materials and product due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These disruptions caused us to not be able to ship certain customer orders on time, creating a sales backlog that was higher than normal.

In addition, our suppliers, contract manufacturers and distributors, and other third parties we contract with are subject to ongoing, periodic, unannounced inspection by the FDA and corresponding state and foreign agencies or their designees to ensure strict compliance with applicable regulations and other governmental regulations and corresponding foreign standards. We do not control compliance with these regulations and standards by our suppliers, contract manufacturers, distributors and other third parties with which it contracts. They might not be able to comply with these regulatory requirements. If they fail to comply with applicable regulations, the FDA or other regulatory authorities could issue orders of suspension, recall, destruction or cessation of manufacturing, or impose sanctions on us, including fines, injunctions, civil penalties, denial of any required marketing approval, delays, suspension or withdrawal of approvals, license revocation, product seizures or recalls, operating restrictions and criminal prosecutions. For example, the FDA could stop or delay approval of production of products if LifeNet’s manufacturing facilities do not comply with applicable manufacturing requirements. Any of these actions could significantly and adversely affect the supply and distribution of our products and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we fail to manage any expansion or acquisition, our business could be impaired.

While we are not permitted by the terms of the merger agreement with Bioventus to make material acquisitions, if Bioventus provides its consent, or the merger agreement is terminated, we may in the future acquire one or more technologies, products or companies that complement our business. We may not be able to integrate these into our business effectively and any such acquisition could bring additional risks, exposures, and challenges to our business. In addition, acquisitions may dilute our earnings per share, disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses, subject us to liabilities, and increase our risk of litigation, all of which could harm our business. If we use cash to acquire technologies, products, or companies, such use may divert resources otherwise available for other purposes. If we use our common stock to acquire technologies, products, or companies, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution. If we fail to manage any expansions or acquisition, our business could be impaired.

Our agreements and contracts entered into with partners and other third parties may not be successful.

We signed in the past and may pursue in the future agreements and contracts with third parties to assist in our marketing, manufacturing, selling, and distribution efforts. These agreements are made on a case-by-case basis after analyzing potential impact and benefit to our business. While we have entered into such agreements and contracts in the past, and may pursue such agreements and contracts in the future, the performance of our partners and third parties cannot be guaranteed. We cannot assure that any agreements or contracts entered into will be successful.

The fluctuation of our quarterly results may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Our revenues and results of operations have in the past varied, and likely will in the future vary, from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control and any of which may cause our stock price to fluctuate. Reliance should not be made on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of our future performance. It is likely that in some future quarters, our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors focused on our performance. In this event, the price of our common stock may fall.

We may not be able to attract and retain additional key management, sales and marketing and technical personnel, or we may lose existing key management, sales and marketing or technical personnel, which may delay our development and marketing efforts.

We depend on a number of key management, sales and marketing, and technical personnel. The loss of the services of one or more key employees could delay the achievement of our development and marketing objectives. Our success will also depend on our ability to attract and retain additional highly qualified management, sales and marketing and technical personnel to meet our growth goals. We face intense competition for qualified personnel, many of whom are often subject to competing employment offers, and we do not know whether we will be able to attract and retain such personnel.

Future changes in financial accounting standards or practices or existing taxation rules or practices may cause adverse or unexpected revenue fluctuations and affect our reported results of operations.

A change in accounting standards or practices or a change in existing taxation rules or practices can have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change is effective. New accounting pronouncements and taxation rules and varying interpretations of accounting pronouncements and taxation practice have occurred and may occur in the future. Changes to existing rules or the questioning of current practices may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct our business.

Risk of reprocessing disposables.

In some jurisdictions around the world, culture and practice encourages reuse of disposable products when the product is clearly labeled for single use.

Such reuse may expose us to liability in these jurisdictions.

Item 1B Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 2 Properties

Our headquarters and primary manufacturing facility is located at 1938 New Highway, Farmingdale, New York. This location houses our corporate functions, as well as the manufacturing of the Surgical operating segment products and to a lesser extent, some products in our Wound segment. We lease approximately 34,400 square feet of this property pursuant to a lease expiring on March 31, 2023. Under the lease, we pay rent of approximately $29,000 a month, which includes a pro rata share of real estate taxes, water, sewer and other charges which are assessed on the leased premises or the land upon which the leased premises is situated.

We also occupy approximately 12,735 square feet of an office building at 600 Thimble Shoals Boulevard, Newport News, Virginia, which primarily houses functions relating to our Wound segment. Monthly rent, which does not include our share of common expenses, utilities, and taxes, is approximately $20,000 per month, with a 3% annual increase. The lease expires in December 2024 with two renewal option terms of three years each.

We believe that the leased facilities are adequate for our present needs.

Item 3 Legal Proceedings

Former Litigation with Chinese Distributor

On March 23, 2017, our former distributor in China, Cicel (Beijing) Science & Technology Co., Ltd., filed a lawsuit against us and certain of our officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The complaint alleged that we improperly terminated our contract with Cicel. The complaint sought various remedies, including compensatory and punitive damages, specific performance and preliminary and post judgment injunctive relief, and asserted various causes of action, including breach of contract, unfair competition, tortious interference with contract, fraudulent inducement, and conversion. On October 7, 2017, the court granted our motion to dismiss each of the tort claims asserted against us, and also granted the individual defendants’ motion to dismiss all claims asserted against them. On January 23, 2020, the Court granted Cicel’s motion to amend its complaint, to include claims for alleged defamation and theft of trade secrets in addition to the breach of contract claim. Discovery in the matter ended on August 5, 2021, and there is no trial date currently set. We believe that we have various legal and factual defenses to the allegations in the complaint and intend to defend the action vigorously.

Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We design, manufacture and market minimally invasive surgical ultrasonic medical devices. These products are used for precise bone sculpting, removal of soft and hard tumors, and tissue debridement, primarily in the areas of neurosurgery, orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery, wound care and maxillo-facial surgery. We also exclusively market, sell and distribute skin allografts and wound care products used to support healing of wounds, and which complement our ultrasonic medical devices.

We strive to have our proprietary procedural solutions become the standard of care and enhance patient outcomes throughout the world. We intend to accomplish this, in part, by utilizing our best-in-class surgical ultrasonic technology to improve patient outcomes in spinal surgery, neurosurgery and wound care. Our neXus generator combines the capabilities of our three legacy ultrasonic products, namely BoneScalpel® Surgical System, SonaStar® Surgical Aspirator, and SonicOne® Wound Cleansing and Debridement System, into a single system that can be used to perform soft and hard tissue resections.

We manufacture and sell our products in two global reportable business segments: the Surgical segment and the Wound segment. Our sales force also operates as two segments, Surgical and Wound Care.

Acquisition of Solsys Medical, LLC

On September 27, 2019, we completed our acquisition of Solsys, a medical technology company focused on the regeneration and healing of soft-tissue associated with chronic wounds and surgical procedures. Solsys’ primary product is TheraSkin, a living cell wound therapy indicated to treat all external wounds from head-to-toe. The purchase price was approximately $108.6 million, representing 5,703,082 shares of Misonix common stock, valued at $19.05 per share. In addition, business transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition were $4.5 million. Of these transaction costs, $3.1 million were charged to general and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statement of Operations and $1.4 million of the transaction costs were capitalized to additional paid in capital, in connection with the registration of the underlying stock issued in the transaction. The results of operations of Solsys are included in our Consolidated Statement of Operations beginning on September 27, 2019.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

Our sales teams are focused on how to meet changing needs of our customers in this environment.

For more information, see “Item 1. Business- Impact of Covid-19 Pandemic” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors.

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound Technology

In May 2010, we sold our rights to our former high intensity focused ultrasound technology to SonaCare Medical, LLC, or SonaCare. Under the terms of the sale, SonaCare is required to pay us 7% of the gross revenues received from its sales of the (i) prostate product in Europe and (ii) kidney and liver products worldwide, until we have received payments of $3.0 million, and thereafter 5% of the foregoing gross revenues, until we have received payments of $5.8 million. Until we have received payments of $5.8 million, the minimum annual amount that SonaCare is required to pay, however, is $250,000. SonaCare was in default of its obligations to make payments to us on March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2021and as of June 30, 2021, we had received cumulative payments of approximately $2.8 million from SonaCare. Due to SonaCare’s default and inability to pay, we entered into an amended agreement with SonaCare on April 30, 2021 and SonaCare made a payment to us of $300,000 on May 28, 2021. The amended agreement with SonaCare requires that SonaCare make minimum annual payments of $300,000 through March 2031. We cannot assure you that SonaCare will make all payments due on a timely basis, or at all. We recorded the $300,000 payment received as other income on our Consolidated Statement of Operations during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, and will record any future payments on a cash basis only when received due to the uncertainty of payment receipt.

Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis provides information that our management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein. Unless otherwise specified, this discussion relates solely to our continuing operations

Fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Our revenues by segment for the two years ended June 30, 2021 are as follows:

	For the years ended
	June 30,				Net change
	2021		2020		$			%
Total
Surgical	$	40,379,693	$	34,457,631	$	5,922,062			17.2	%

Wound		371,433		347,486		23,947			6.9	%
Total	$	13,366,849	$	13,930,698	$	(563,849	)		-4.0	%

Revenues

Revenues increased 18.5% or $11.5 million to $74.0 million in fiscal 2021 from $62.5 million in fiscal 2020.

The revenue increase is principally attributable to growth of domestic surgical revenues by 31.2%, fueled by the introduction of our new platform, neXus. Domestic wound revenue increased by 20.2% primarily from the addition of TheraSkin as a result of the Solsys acquisition, which was only included in 9 months of fiscal 2020 and the full year fiscal 2021. TheraSkin revenue increased from $23.4 million in fiscal 2020 to $26.4 million in fiscal 2021.

International revenue, which is principally from the Surgical segment, decreased 4.0% in part due to weakness in sales of surgical products resulting from the COVID-19 virus, which had an impact on sales throughout fiscal 2021 and only on the second half of fiscal 2020.

Gross profit

The gross profit percentage on product sales was 71.1% in fiscal 2021, compared with 70.0% in fiscal 2020. The increase was in part attributable to a higher mix of domestic revenue compared with international revenue for fiscal 2021.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses increased by $1.9 million, or 4.6% to $42.1 million in fiscal 2021 from $40.2 million in fiscal 2020. The increase is primarily due to our acquisition of Solsys on September 27, 2019. Additional factors impacting selling expenses include higher compensation and commission costs, consulting costs, neXus product launch costs, higher freight expense on higher sales, and costs resulting from the continued build out of our direct sales force. These cost increases were offset by lower travel related expenses and trade show costs relating to the pandemic lockdown.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million to $16.6 million in fiscal 2021 from $18.0 million in fiscal 2020. The decrease was in part due to $1.8 million of transaction expenses incurred in fiscal 2020 related to our acquisition of Solsys, along with a $1.0 million contract asset reserve taken in fiscal 2020. These decreases were offset by higher compensation and non-cash compensation incurred in fiscal 2021.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses increased by $0.1 million, or 2.3% to $5.0 million in fiscal 2021 from $4.9 million in the prior year period, primarily due to increased expense associated with the development of new handpieces and tips to expand our neXus product portfolio.

Other expense

Other expense increased to $3.3 million in fiscal 2021 from other expense of $2.5 million in fiscal 2020. The increase of $0.8 million is related primarily to interest expense from the debt we acquired relating to our acquisition of Solsys on September 27, 2019.

Income taxes

For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded an income tax expense (benefit) of $0.1 million and $(4.5) million, respectively. We purchased Solsys Medical, LLC on September 27, 2019. The acquisition of Solsys resulted in the recognition of deferred tax liabilities of approximately $4.6 million, which related primarily to intangible assets. Prior to the Solsys acquisition, we had a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. The deferred tax liabilities generated from the Solsys acquisition is netted against our pre-existing deferred tax assets. Consequently, this resulted in a release of $4.6 million of the pre-existing valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets and corresponding deferred tax benefit.

The components of the tax provision are as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our liquidity position and capital requirements may be impacted by a number of factors, including the following:

	●	our ability to generate revenue, including a potential decline in revenue resulting from COVID-19;

	●	fluctuations in gross margins, operating expenses and net loss; and

	●	fluctuations in working capital.

Our primary short-term capital needs, which are subject to change, include expenditures related to:

	●	expansion of our sales, marketing and distribution activities;

	●	expansion of our research and development activities; and

	●	maintaining sufficient inventory to supply our sales volume.

Fiscal 2021

Working capital at June 30, 2021 was $36.6 million. For fiscal 2021, cash used in operations was $9.0 million, mainly due to our net loss of $14.5 million, an increase in inventory of $6.4 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $0.4, offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3.8 million, and $8.6 million of non-cash expenses.

Cash used by investing activities for fiscal 2021 was $0.3 million, consisting of cash used to purchase property, plant and equipment of $0.1 million and cash outflows to file for additional patents of $0.2 million.

Cash provided by financing activities was $2.3 million for fiscal 2021, primarily consisting of net long-term debt borrowings of $2.1 million.

As of June 30, 2021, we had a cash balance of approximately $31.0 million. Management currently believes that we have sufficient cash to finance operations for at least the next 12 months following the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements included herein.

Fiscal 2020

As of June 30, 2020, we had a cash balance of approximately $38.0 million.

Working capital at June 30, 2020 was $47.4 million. For fiscal 2020, cash used in operations was $26.7 million, mainly due to our net loss of $17.4 million, an increase in inventory of $10.9 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $1.8 million, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1.0 million, offset by $4.7 million of non-cash expenses.

Cash provided by investing activities was $5.1 million, primarily consisting of cash provided by the acquisition of Solsys of $5.5 million, offset by the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $0.3 million and cash outflows to file for additional patents of $0.1 million.

Cash provided by financing activities was $51.7 million for fiscal 2020, primarily consisting of net cash of $32 million from an offering of our equity securities, $1.4 million of transaction fees relating to the Solsys acquisition, and net long-term debt borrowings of $19.8 million, in addition to $1.2 million in proceeds received from the exercise of stock options.

Financing Transactions

On September 27, 2019, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, or (as amended and supplemented from time to time) the SWK Credit Agreement, with SWK Holdings Corporation, or SWK, pursuant to a commitment letter whereby SWK (a) consented to the acquisition of Solsys and (b) agreed to provide financing to us. Through the acquisition of Solsys, we became party to a $20.2 million note payable to SWK. The SWK credit facility originally provided an additional $5.0 million in financing, totaling approximately $25.1 million and a maturity date of June 30, 2023. On December 23, 2019, the parties amended the SWK Credit Agreement to, among other things, provide an additional $5 million of term loans, for total aggregate borrowings of up to approximately $30.1 million. The maturity date of the Amended SWK Credit Agreement remains June 30, 2023. On June 30, 2020, the parties amended the SWK Credit Agreement, (as so amended, the “Amended SWK Credit Agreement”) to modify the minimum aggregate revenue and minimum EBITDA financial covenants thereunder. The modified terms under the Amended SWK Credit Agreement reduce the minimum aggregate revenue requirements through December 31, 2021 and reduce the minimum EBITDA requirements through June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding principal balance of the term loans under the Amended SWK Credit Agreement is approximately $30.1 million.

Through the acquisition of Solsys, we also became party to a $5.0 million revolving line of credit loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, originally effective January 22, 2019, or (as amended and supplemented from time to time) the Prior Solsys Credit Agreement. The line of credit had an original maturity date of January 22, 2021. On December 26, 2019, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, or (as amended and supplemented from time to time) the New Loan and Security Agreement, among us and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Misonix OpCo, Inc. and Solsys, as borrowers, and Silicon Valley Bank. The New Loan and Security Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility, or the New Credit Facility, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20.0 million, including borrowings and letters of credit. The New Loan and Security Agreement replaces the $5.0 million Prior Solsys Credit Agreement. We did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the Prior Solsys Credit Agreement.

On June 30, 2020, the parties amended the New Loan and Security Agreement (as so amended, the “Amended SVB Loan Agreement”) to modify the minimum aggregate revenue and minimum EBITDA financial covenants thereunder. The Second SVB Modification reduces the minimum aggregate revenue requirements through December 31, 2021 and reduces the minimum EBITDA requirements through June 30, 2021.

The Company is in compliance with all covenants in its financing agreements as of June 30, 2021.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facility were used in part to repay the amount of $3.75 million outstanding under the Prior Solsys Credit Agreement, and the balance may be used by us for general corporate purposes and working capital. The New Credit Facility matures on December 26, 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding principal balance of the New Credit Facility is $8.4 million.

On January 27, 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,868,750 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $18.50 per share. The gross proceeds of the offering were $34.6 million. We intend to use the proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include investment in sales and marketing initiatives and funding growth opportunities such as collaborations and acquisitions of complementary products or technologies.

On April 5, 2020, we applied for an unsecured $5.2 million loan under the Paycheck Protection Program, or the PPP Loan. The Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, was established under the recently congressionally approved Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or the CARES Act, and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. On April 10, 2020, the PPP loan was approved and funded. We entered into a promissory note with J.P. Morgan Chase evidencing the unsecured $5.2 million loan. The promissory note has a maturity date of April 4, 2022 and accrues interest at an annual rate of 0.98%. The promissory note evidencing the PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and provisions of the promissory note. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, we used the proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs.

Commitments

We have commitments under operating leases that we plan to fund from operating sources. At June 30, 2021, our contractual cash obligations and commitments relating to debt repayment, operating leases and other purchase commitments are as follows:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to us.

Other

In the opinion of our management, inflation has not had a material effect on our operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant estimates affecting amounts reported or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements include net realizable value of inventories, valuation of intangible assets including amortization periods for acquired intangible assets, estimates of projected cash flows and discount rates used to value intangible assets and test goodwill and intangible assets for impairment, computation of valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets, and valuation of stock-based compensation. These estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the current circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We believe that the following accounting policies, which form the basis for developing these estimates, are those that are most critical to the presentation of our consolidated financial statements and require the more difficult subjective and complex judgments.

Revenue Recognition

We satisfy performance obligations either over time, or at a point in time, upon which control transfers to the customer.

Revenue derived from the shipping and billing of product is recorded upon shipment, when transfer of control occurs for products shipped freight on board (“F.O.B.”) shipping. Products shipped F.O.B. destination are recorded as revenue when received at the point of destination when the transfer of control is completed. Shipments under agreements with distributors are not subject to return, and payment for these shipments is not contingent on sales by the distributor. Accordingly, we recognize revenue on shipments to distributors in the same manner as with other customers under the ship and bill process.

Revenue derived from the rental of equipment is recorded on a monthly basis over the term of the lease. Shipments of consumable products to these rental customers is recorded as orders are received and shipments are made F.O.B. destination or F.O.B. shipping.

Revenue derived from consignment agreements is earned as consumables product orders are fulfilled. Therefore, revenue is recognized as control passes to the customer, which is typically when shipments are made F.O.B shipping or F.O.B destination.

Revenue derived from service and maintenance contracts is recognized evenly over the life of the service agreement as the services are performed.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of purchased materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead, are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. Our evaluation includes an analysis of historical sales levels by product, projections of future demand by product, the risk of technological or competitive obsolescence for our products, general market conditions, and the feasibility of reworking or using excess or obsolete products or components in the production or assembly of other products that are not obsolete or for which we do not have excess quantities in inventory. To the extent that we determine there are excess or obsolete quantities or quantities on hand, we adjust their carrying value to estimated net realizable value. If future demand or market conditions are lower than our projections, or if we are unable to rework excess or obsolete quantities into other products, we may record further adjustments to the carrying value of inventory through a charge to cost of product revenues in the period the revision is made.

Purchase Price Accounting

The allocation of the purchase price for business combinations requires management estimates and judgment as to expectations for future cash flows of the acquired business and the allocation of those cash flows to identifiable intangible assets in determining the estimated fair value for purchase price allocation purposes. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in these estimates, the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements could result in a possible impairment of the intangible assets and goodwill or require acceleration of the amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets. In addition, accounting guidance requires that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested at least annually for impairment. If circumstances or events prior to the date of the required annual assessment indicate that, in management’s judgment, it is more likely than not that there has been a reduction of fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value, we perform an impairment analysis at the time of such circumstance or event. Changes in management’s estimates or judgments could result in an impairment charge, and such a charge could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Goodwill

The excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses is recorded as goodwill. In connection with the acquisition of Solsys, the Company has $106.5 million of goodwill recorded on its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021, $12.7 million of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill recognized from the Solsys acquisition represents the excess of the purchase price over aggregate fair value of net assets acquired and is related to the benefits expected as a result of the acquisition, including sales, and a stronger portfolio of Wound solutions that will drive growth in the wound care market. Our goodwill balance as of each reporting period by segment, includes:

	Surgical		Wound			Total

Balance as of June 30, 2019	$	1,701,094	$	-		$	1,701,094

Acquisition of Solsys		-		108,833,165			108,833,165
Purchase price accounting adjustments		-		(2,223,909	)		(2,223,909	)

Accumulated impairment losses		-		-			-

Goodwill (gross)		1,701,094		106,533,570			108,234,664

Accumulated impairment losses		-		-			-

Balance as of June 30, 2021	$	1,701,094	$	106,533,570		$	108,234,664

Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is reviewed for impairment at the reporting unit level annually, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Our assessment of the recoverability of goodwill is based upon a comparison of the carrying value of goodwill with its estimated fair value and the value of Misonix at the measurement date.

We performed our annual impairment test as of March 31 and concluded there was no impairment to goodwill. As of March 31, 2021, the fair value of the Wound and Surgical reporting units exceeded their carrying values by more than 10%. The fair values of our reporting units were estimated considering both the market approach and the income approach. The market approach provides an indication of value based on a comparison to recent sales. The income approach is based upon the estimated future income streams associated with each reporting unit. Application of these impairment tests requires significant judgments, including estimation of cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our businesses, the useful lives over which cash flows will occur and determination of our weighted average cost of capital. If actual results are not consistent with management’s estimate and assumptions, a material impairment charge of goodwill could occur, which would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

There were no triggering events in the fourth quarter 2021 that would cause us to re-evaluate our impairment analysis.

Income Taxes

We assess whether a valuation allowance should be established against our deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, both positive and negative, using a more likely than not standard. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses; a forecast of future profitability; the duration of statutory carryback and carryforward periods; our experience with tax attributes expiring unused; and tax planning alternatives. The likelihood that the deferred tax asset balance will be recovered from future taxable income is assessed at least quarterly, and the valuation allowance, if any, is adjusted accordingly.

Loss Contingencies

We are subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of our business, including claims by employees or former employees, with respect to our products and involving commercial disputes, or shareholder actions. We accrue for loss contingencies when it is deemed probable that a loss has been incurred and that loss is estimable. The amounts accrued are based on the full amount of the estimated loss before considering insurance proceeds, if applicable, and do not include an estimate for legal fees expected to be incurred in connection with the loss contingency. Our consolidated financial statements do not reflect any material amounts related to possible unfavorable outcomes of claims and lawsuits to which we are currently a party because we currently believe that such claims and lawsuits are not expected to result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition. However, it is possible that these contingencies could materially affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows in a particular period if we change our assessment of the likely outcome of these matters.

Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize compensation expense associated with the issuance of equity instruments to employees for their services. Based on the type of equity instrument, the fair value is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, is expensed in the consolidated financial statements over the service period and is recorded in general and administrative expenses. The input assumptions used in determining fair value are the expected life, expected volatility, risk-free rate and expected dividend yield.

On December 15, 2016, we issued 400,000 shares of restricted stock to our Chief Executive Officer. These awards vest over a period of up to five years, subject to meeting certain service, performance, and market conditions. We valued these awards using a Monte Carlo valuation model, which required the use of various estimates in arriving at the valuation of the awards. The valuation included the estimate of the probability of achieving the performance criteria, which included minimum levels of our stock price and revenue. If the stock price and performance conditions are not met, some or all of these awards will not vest and compensation cost recorded, if any, could be reversed.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instrument (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for SEC small business filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Management is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on us.

There are no other recently issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and has since issued amendments thereto, related to the accounting for leases (collectively referred to as “ASC 842”). ASC 842 establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all long-term leases. Leases will be classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition and classification in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. We adopted ASC 842 on July 1, 2019. 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 consolidated financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. Entities have the option to continue to apply historical accounting under Topic 840, including its disclosure requirements, in comparative periods presented in the year of adoption. An entity that elects this option recognizes a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit in the period of adoption instead of the earliest period presented. We adopted the optional ASC 842 transition provisions beginning on July 1, 2019. Accordingly, we will continue to apply Topic 840 prior to July 1, 2019, including Topic 840 disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented. We elected the package of practical expedients for all its leases that commenced before July 1, 2019. We have evaluated our real estate lease, copier leases and generator rental agreements. The adoption of ASC 842 did not materially affect our consolidated balance sheet and had an immaterial impact on our results of operations. Based on our current agreements, upon the adoption of ASC 842 on July 1, 2019, we recorded an operating lease liability of approximately $0.4 million and corresponding ROU assets based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments associated with our leases. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, nor is one readily available, we used our incremental borrowing rate of 10.5% based on information available at July 1, 2019 to determine the present value of its future minimum rental payments.

Item 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk:

The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices) to which we are exposed are interest rates on cash and certain items in inventory.

Interest Rate Risk:

We earn interest on cash balances. In light of our existing cash, results of operations and projected borrowing requirements, we do not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position.

Item 8 Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Item 9A Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed and tested, have inherent limitations, including, among other things, the possibility of human error, circumvention or disregard. Therefore, even those systems of internal control that have been determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by is in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

	●	pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of our assets;

	●	provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

	●	provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of Misonix, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control— Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, management determined that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers (including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Controller and any person performing similar functions) and employees. We have made the Code of Ethics available on our website at www.misonix.com.

Nomination of Directors

The process followed by the Nominating and Governance Committee to identify and evaluate director candidates includes requests to the members of our Board and others for recommendations, meetings to evaluate biographical information and background material relating to potential candidates and interviews of selected candidates by members of the Nominating and Governance Committee and our Board.

In recommending candidates to the Board for nomination as directors, the Nominating and Governance Committee strives to identify individuals who bring a unique perspective to our leadership and contribute to the overall diversity of our Board. Although the Nominating and Governance Committee has not adopted a specific written diversity policy for nominations, we believe that a diversity of experience, gender, race, ethnicity and age contributes to effective governance for the benefit of our stockholders. In practice, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers such characteristics together with the other qualities considered necessary by the Nominating and Governance Committee, such as requisite judgment, skill, integrity and experience, including experience in industries beyond healthcare. The Nominating and Governance Committee does not assign a particular weight to these individual factors. Rather, the Nominating and Governance Committee looks for a mix of factors that, when considered along with the experience and credentials of the other candidates and existing directors, will provide stockholders with a diverse and experienced Board.

Our Board does not currently prescribe any minimum qualifications for director candidates; however, the Nominating and Governance Committee will take into account a potential candidate’s experience, areas of expertise and other factors relevant to the overall composition of our board of directors.

Our bylaws provide that nominations by stockholders of persons for election to the Board may be made by giving adequate notice to Misonix’s Corporate Secretary. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board will consider persons properly nominated by stockholders and recommend to the full Board whether any such nominees should be included with the Board’s nominees for election by stockholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee will evaluate properly nominated stockholder-recommended candidates by following substantially the same process, and applying substantially the same criteria, as it follows for candidates submitted by others. To be adequate, the nomination notice must set forth certain information specified in our bylaws about each stockholder submitting a nomination and each person being nominated. Our bylaws are available in our SEC filings which can be accessed on our website at www.misonix.com under the “Investors Relations” tab and will be provided to any stockholder upon written request to Misonix, Inc., 1938 New Highway, Farmingdale, New York 11735, Attn: Corporate Secretary. A stockholder is not entitled to have its nominees included in our proxy statement solely as a result of such stockholder’s compliance with the foregoing provisions. If a stockholder does not appear at the annual meeting to present its nomination in person, such nomination will be disregarded (notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nomination may have been solicited, obtained or delivered).

Audit Committee

We have a separately designated standing Audit Committee. The members of the committee are Messrs. Patton, Beyer and Koby. Mr. Patton chairs the committee. Each current member of the committee, and each member who served during the 2021 fiscal year, is independent as defined in Rule 10A-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the listing standards of Nasdaq. The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Patton and Koby each qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined in Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 11 Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required under Item 402 to include a fulsome Compensation Discussion and Analysis; however, we have chosen to voluntarily include the following overview of our compensation programs and policies.

Named Executive Officers

The following discussion is focused primarily on our compensation philosophy, policies and programs as they relate to, and amounts paid or payable to, our executive officers for their services during Fiscal 2021. Our “named executive officers” or the “NEOs” consist of the following individuals:

Name	Age	Position(s)

Stavros G. Vizirgianakis	50	Chief Executive Officer and Director

Joseph P. Dwyer	65	Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary

Robert S. Ludecker	53	Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing

Overview of Compensation Program and Philosophy

Our compensation program is intended to:

	●	Attract, motivate, retain and reward employees of outstanding ability;

	●	Link changes in employee compensation to individual and corporate performance; and

	●	Align employees’ interests with those of our stockholders.

The ultimate objective of our compensation program is to increase stockholder value. We seek to achieve these objectives with a total compensation approach which takes into account a competitive base salary, bonus pay based on the annual performance of Misonix and individual goals and stock option awards.

The Board’s Compensation Committee, which is composed solely of independent directors and is responsible for making decisions regarding the amount and form of compensation paid to our executive officers, has carefully considered the results of prior say-on-pay stockholder votes. Based upon the vote results at the most recent annual stockholders meeting, stockholders appear to be supportive of the Compensation Committee’s approach to the executive compensation program.

Base Salaries

Base salaries paid to executives are intended to attract and retain highly talented individuals. In setting base salaries, individual experience, individual performance, the Company’s performance and job responsibilities during the year are considered. Executive salaries are evaluated against peer-group public companies of similar size and nature. The Compensation Committee recently completed an independent study which concluded that Misonix base salaries and bonuses

for executives are in the lower 25^th percentile compared with its peer-group. The Company’s independent consultant, in connection with the Company, determined the proper peer-group for comparison. The consultant determined the compensation range with respect to base salaries, incentive compensation, and equity compensation for each of the titles of the executive officers. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, Messrs. Vizirgianakis, Dwyer and Ludecker received base salary increases of 10.0%, 10.0% and 3.0%, respectively, based on performance.

Annual Bonus Plan Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Board approves annual performance-based compensation. The purpose of the annual bonus compensation is to motivate executive officers and key employees. Target bonuses, based upon recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer, are evaluated and approved by the Compensation Committee for all management employees other than the Chief Executive Officer. The bonus recommendations are derived from individual and Company performance but not based on a specific formula and are discretionary. The Chief Executive Officer’s bonus compensation is derived from the recommendation of the Compensation Committee based upon the Chief Executive Officer’s performance and Company performance but is not based on a specific formula and is discretionary. Bonuses earned in fiscal 2021 based on performance were as follows: $462,250 to Mr. Vizirgianakis, $148,500 to Mr. Dwyer, and $93,330 to Mr. Ludecker.

Equity Incentive Awards

Our executives are eligible to receive stock options (which gives them the right to purchase shares of common stock at a specified price in the future). These grants will vest based upon the passage of time, the achievement of performance metrics, or both. We believe that the use of stock options as the basis for long-term incentive compensation meets our defined compensation strategy and business needs by achieving increased value for stockholders and retaining key employees.

Stock option awards are intended to attract and retain highly talented executives, to provide an opportunity for significant compensation when overall Company performance is reflected in the stock price and to help align executives’ and stockholders’ interests. Stock options are typically granted at the time of hire to key new employees and annually to a broad group of existing key employees, including executive officers. We have adopted a number of equity compensation plans governing the grant of such stock options. All of our equity compensation plans have been approved by our stockholders.

Annual option grants to executive officers are made at the discretion of the Board or the Compensation Committee and may be in the form of incentive stock options (“ISOs”) up to the fullest extent permitted under tax laws, with the balance granted in the form of nonqualified stock options. The option grants are subject to the terms of the relevant plan. ISOs have potential income tax advantage for executives if the executive disposes of the acquired shares after satisfying certain holding periods. Tax laws provide that at the date of grant, the aggregate fair market value of ISOs that become exercisable for any employee in any year may not exceed $100,000.

Our current standard option vesting schedule for all employees is four years vesting monthly.

The number of stock options granted in fiscal 2021 to the named executive officers, and their estimated fair value, were as follows:

				Estimated
		Number of		Fair Value of
		Options		Awards at
Named Executive Officer	Grant Date	Granted		Grant Date

Stavros G. Vizirgianakis	6/30/2021		150,000	$	1,788,658

Joseph P. Dwyer	6/30/2021		50,000	$	596,219

Robert S. Ludecker	6/30/2021		20,000	$	238,488

The stock options awarded on June 30, 2021 had an exercise price of $22.18, which was each equal to the closing market price per share of our stock on the date of grant. The stock options in the above table provide for four-year vesting on a monthly basis, with a stated expiration date of ten years after grant.

Other Annual Compensation and Benefits

Although direct compensation, in the form of salary, non-equity incentive awards and long-term equity incentive awards provide most of the compensation to each of our executive officers, we also provide for the following items of additional compensation:

	●	Retirement savings are provided by a 401(k) plan, in the same manner to all U.S. employees. This plan includes an employer matching contribution of 10% which is intended to encourage employees (including the Chief Executive Officer) to save for retirement;

	●	Health, life and disability benefits are offered to our executive officers in the same manner to all of our U.S. employees. We provided additional life insurance and long term care policies to for our Chief Executive Officer and each of our executive officers; and

	●	Transportation expenses are provided to executive officers, primarily in the form of an automobile allowance.

Summary of Compensation

The table and footnotes below describe the total compensation for fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 earned by the “named executive officers,” which includes the individual who served as our principal executive officer during fiscal 2021, and each of the other two most highly compensated individuals who were serving as executive officers of the Company on June 30, 2021, the last day of the fiscal year.

The Dwyer Stock Option Award has an exercise price of $10.20 per share, which equals the fair market value on the date of grant as defined in the plan and vests and becomes exercisable in four equal annual installments from the date of grant.

Ludecker Letter Agreement

On September 15, 2016, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Ludecker Agreement”) with Robert S. Ludecker, pursuant to which Mr. Ludecker serves as the Company’s Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing.

The Ludecker Agreement also contains non-disparagement covenants from Mr. Ludecker following his termination of employment.

Summary of Potential Payments Upon Termination or Following a Change In Control

Severance and Change in Control Payments

The named executive officers are entitled to severance payments in accordance with the terms of their employment agreements, as described above under “Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and Outstanding Equity Awards Table – Employment Agreements.” As described above, severance payments are generally triggered in the event that an executive officer is terminated without cause, or the executive terminates employment without good reason, as defined in the applicable employment agreement.

Additionally, our equity incentive plans include provisions that accelerate vesting 100% upon a change in control of the Company. A change in control is generally defined as a change of more than 50% of the voting control of the Company. In the event of a change in control, holders of Misonix employee equity incentive awards would be eligible to exercise and sell their vested securities.

Quantification of Termination / Change in Control Payments

The following table shows the benefits which would be received by each of our named executive officers under their respective employment arrangement and the applicable equity plans and award agreements, in the event of his termination without cause or termination for good reason, or upon a change in control (data with respect to equity awards assumes at change of control at June 30, 2021 and that the price of our common stock on which the calculations were based was the closing price on June 30, 2021, which was $22.18 per share. Data with respect to salary represents the fiscal 2021 base salary):

Director Compensation for Fiscal 2021

Directors are compensated through payment of a cash fee and annual stock option grants, which generally vest in full on an annual basis. In fiscal 2021, each non-employee director is entitled to receive an annual fee of $35,000 and the Chairman of the Audit Committee received $45,000. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the directors agreed to waive their cash compensation fee.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Misonix, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Misonix, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Goodwill Impairment Assessment - Wound Reporting Unit — Refer to Note 1 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company’s evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Management performs an impairment assessment annually as of March 31, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit may be below its carrying value. The Company’s two reporting units are the Surgical and Wound reporting units. To determine the estimated fair values of the Company’s reporting units, management considers both the market and income approaches, which are dependent on significant management judgement, including estimation of cash flows, estimation of the long-term rate of revenue growth, and determination of the weighted average cost of capital for the reporting units.

The Company’s consolidated goodwill balance as of June 30, 2021 was $108.2 million, of which $106.5 million was allocated to the Wound reporting unit.

We identified goodwill for the Wound reporting unit as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management makes to estimate the fair value of the Wound reporting unit and the sensitivity of the Wound reporting unit’s operations to changes in demand. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the forecasts of future revenues used by management to estimate the fair value of the Wound reporting unit included the following, among others:

●

With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation methodology, including testing the mathematical accuracy of the calculation.

●

We evaluated management’s ability to accurately forecast future revenue by comparing actual results to management’s historical forecasts.

●

We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasts by comparing the forecasts to (1) internal communications to management and the board of directors, (2) external communications made by management to analysts and investors, (3) holding discussions with reporting unit leaders, and (4) comparing the forecasts to industry reports containing analyses of the Company’s and its peer group’s products.

Misonix, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

1. Basis of Presentation, Organization and Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements of Misonix, Inc. (“Misonix” or the “Company”) include the accounts of Misonix and its 100% owned subsidiaries.

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Organization and Business

Misonix designs, manufactures and markets minimally invasive surgical ultrasonic medical devices and markets, sells and distributes TheraSkin® (“TheraSkin”), a biologically active human skin allograft used to support healing of wounds which complements Misonix’s ultrasonic medical devices. Misonix’s ultrasonic products are used for precise bone sculpting, removal of soft and hard tumors and tissue debridement, primarily in the areas of neurosurgery, orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery, wound care and maxillo-facial surgery.

In the United States, the Company sells its products through its direct sales force, in addition to a network of commissioned agents assisted by Misonix personnel. Outside of the United States, the Company sells BoneScalpel and SonaStar through distributors who then resell the products to hospitals. The Company sells to all major markets in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Africa. The Company manufactures and sells its products in two global reportable business segments: the Surgical segment and the Wound segment. The Company’s sales force also operates as two segments, Surgical and Wound Care.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s business is subject to material risks and uncertainties as a result of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the response to the pandemic is rapidly evolving. Several jurisdictions are experiencing new increases in the rate of infection by COVID-19, and as a result, the Company’s customers are diverting resources to treat COVID-19 patients and deferring elective surgical procedures, both of which have and are likely to continue to impact demand for the Company’s products. Furthermore, capital markets and economies worldwide have also been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could cause a local and/or global economic recession. Such economic disruption could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business as hospitals and surgery centers curtail and reduce capital and overall spending. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions and the Company’s ability to benefit from them remains uncertain.

The severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions taken to contain the virus or address its impact including vaccine distribution and efficacy, U.S. and foreign government actions to respond to the reduction in global economic activity, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The Company’s future results of operations and liquidity could be materially and adversely impacted by delays in payments of outstanding receivable amounts beyond normal payment terms, supply chain disruptions and uncertain demand, and the impact of any initiatives or programs that the Company may undertake to address financial and operations challenges faced by its customers. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may materially impact the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations is uncertain.

Acquisition of Solsys Medical, LLC

On September 27, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition (the “Solsys Acquisition”) of Solsys Medical, LLC (“Solsys”), a privately held regenerative medical company, in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $109 million. Solsys is the exclusive marketer and distributor of TheraSkin in the United States, through an agreement with LifeNet Health (“LifeNet”). Solsys owns the TheraSkin® brand name, which was commercially launched in January 2010. TheraSkin is a biologically active human skin allograft which has all of the relevant characteristics of human skin, including living cells, growth factors, and a collagen matrix, needed to heal wounds. TheraSkin is derived from human skin tissue from consenting and highly screened donors and is manufactured by LifeNet Health. As a result of the Solsys Acquisition, the Company became the parent public-reporting company of the combined entity; Misonix, Inc., a New York corporation, now known as Misonix Opco, Inc., and Solsys became direct, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The acquisition of Solsys is expected to broaden the Company’s addressable market through wound care solutions that are complementary to its existing products. After the completion of the Solsys Acquisition, the Company’s shareholders immediately prior to the closing owned 64% of the combined entity, and Solsys unitholders immediately prior to the closing owned 36%. The Company issued 5,703,082 shares in connection with this transaction. Transaction fees were approximately $4.5 million, of which $1.4 million were capitalized as additional paid in capital in connection with the registration of these shares. The Solsys assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.

The Company’s common stock was created with a par value per share of $.0001, whereas the par value of Misonix Opco, Inc. was $.01. Accordingly, the Company recorded a reclassification of $151,964 between common stock and additional paid in capital during the three months ended September 30, 2019 to account for this change.

F-7

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound Technology

In May 2010, we sold our rights to our former high intensity focused ultrasound technology to SonaCare Medical, LLC, or SonaCare. Under the terms of the sale, SonaCare is required to pay us 7% of the gross revenues received from its sales of the (i) prostate product in Europe and (ii) kidney and liver products worldwide, until we have received payments of $3.0 million, and thereafter 5% of the foregoing gross revenues, until we have received payments of $5.8 million . Until we have received payments of $5.8 million, the minimum annual amount that SonaCare is required to pay, however, is $250,000. SonaCare was in default of its obligations to make payments to us on March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2021and as of June 30, 2021, we had received cumulative payments of approximately $2.8 million from SonaCare . Due to SonaCare’s default and inability to pay, we entered into an amended agreement with SonaCare on April 30, 2021 and SonaCare made a payment to us of $300,000 on May 28, 2021. The amended agreement with SonaCare requires that SonaCare make minimum annual payments of $300,000 through March 2031. We cannot assure you that SonaCare will make all payments due on a timely basis, or at all. We recorded the $300,000 payment received as other income on our Consolidated Statement of Operations during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts includes all future amounts due from SonaCare. All future payments will be recorded as income to the extent cash is received due to the uncertainty of payment receipt.

Equity Offering

On January 27, 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 1,868,750 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $18.50 per share. The gross proceeds of the offering were $34.6 million. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include investment in sales and marketing initiatives and funding growth opportunities such as collaborations and acquisitions of complementary products or technologies.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All of the Company’s cash is maintained in bank accounts and accordingly it does not have cash equivalents at June 30, 2021. The Company’s cash balances at June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $31.0 million and $38.0 million respectively. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. At June 30, 2021 and 2020, these financial institutions held cash that was approximately $30.5 million and $37.4 million, respectively, in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and other government agencies.

Major Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk

No customers exceeded 10% of consolidated revenues for the fiscal years 2021 and 2020.

At June 30, 2021 and 2020, $0.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of accounts receivable were past 90 days old.

At June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s accounts receivable with customers outside the United States were approximately $1.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for but not limited to establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, depreciation, intangible amortization, asset impairment evaluations and establishing deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances, and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable, principally trade, are generally due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors aging reports, collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee that the same credit loss rates will be experienced in the future. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value and consist of raw materials, work-in process and finished goods and include purchased materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Management evaluates the need to record adjustments to write down inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy is to assess the valuation of all inventories, including raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and it writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence based upon the age of inventory and assumptions about future demand and usage. Inventory items used for demonstration purposes, rentals or on consignment are classified as property, plant and equipment.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor replacements and maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or the useful life of the related asset, whichever is shorter. The Company’s policy is to evaluate periodically the appropriateness of the lives assigned to property, plant and equipment and make adjustments if necessary. Depreciation of BoneScalpel and SonicOne generators which are consigned to customers are depreciated over a 5- year period, and depreciation is charged to selling expenses. See Note 4.

F-8

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue from the sale and leasing of medical equipment, from the sale of consumable products used with medical equipment in surgical procedures, from the sale of TheraSkin, Therion and TheraGenesis, and from product supply and licensing arrangements. In the United States, the Company’s products are marketed primarily through a hybrid sales approach that includes direct sales representatives, managed by regional sales managers, along with independent distributors. Outside the United States, the Company sells BoneScalpel, SonaStar, and SonicOne to specialty distributors who purchase products to resell to their clinical customer bases. The Company sells to all major markets in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Africa. Revenue is disaggregated from contracts between products under ship and bill arrangements and licensing agreements, and by geography, which the Company believes best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Contracts and Performance Obligations

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is an approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of the consideration is probable. The Company’s performance obligations consist mainly of transferring control of products and related services identified in the contracts, purchase orders or invoices. For each contract, the Company considers the obligation to transfer products or bundled products and services to the customer, of which each is distinct in the context of the contract, to be performance obligations.

Transaction Price and Allocation to Performance Obligations

Transaction prices of products are typically based upon contracted rates as specified on the purchase order for the purchase of consumables. The Company’s contracted rates represent the standalone selling price of a consumable which is generally determined through the sale of products and/or bundled products or services separately in similar circumstances to similar customers. The Company determines the effects of variable consideration, inclusive of any constraints, in determining the transaction price with regard to its contracts with customers.

Recognition of Revenue

The Company satisfies performance obligations either over time, or at a point in time, upon which control transfers to the customer.

Revenue derived from the shipping and billing of product is recorded upon shipment, when transfer of control occurs for products shipped freight on board (“F.O.B.”) shipping. Products shipped F.O.B. destination are recorded as revenue when received at the point of destination when the transfer of control is completed. Shipments under agreements with distributors are not subject to return, and payment for these shipments is not contingent on sales by the distributor. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue on shipments to distributors in the same manner as with other customers under the ship and bill process.

Revenue derived from consignment agreements is earned as consumables product orders are fulfilled. Therefore, revenue is recognized as shipments are made F.O.B. shipping or F.O.B destination.

Revenue derived from service and maintenance contracts is recognized evenly over the life of the service agreement as the services are performed.

Contract Specific Performance Obligations and Significant Judgements

Product Placement/Consignment Agreements

The Company’s product placement/consignment agreements provide for the placement of a console or generator, at the customer’s place of business and set pricing related to the purchase of consumables for use in conjunction with the console. These agreements do not require any minimum consumable purchase quantities and do not have a stated term. The Company considers the transaction price in these arrangements to be fully constrained variable consideration because it is dependent on future sales of consumables to the customer. The Company has determined that the pattern of purchase of consumables by a customer is consistent with the benefit received by the customer for the use of the generator and therefore the Company has a right to consideration based upon the pattern of consumable purchases placed through purchase orders by the customer. The Company’s invoices to these customers have short-term payment terms and are aligned with the transfer of goods and services to the customer and the Company recognizes revenue based upon its right to invoice customers.

Selling Costs

Incremental direct costs of obtaining a sales contract primarily include sales commissions paid to sales personnel and outside sales representatives in connection with sales of products under ship and bill scenarios or through product placement scenarios. The expected period of benefit of these costs is one year or less and therefore the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense such costs in the period in which they are incurred. Typically, costs in fulfilling a contract represent shipping and handling costs and the Company accounts for these costs as fulfilment costs and they are expensed as incurred. Costs in fulfilling a contract are only capitalized as an asset if they relate directly to an existing contract or specific anticipated contract, they generate or enhance resources of the entity that will be used to satisfy performance obligations in the future, and they are expected to be recovered. The Company has not identified any such costs.

Our international sales include a concentration in China, aggregating $2.0 million and $3.1 million for fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Beginning with the fiscal third quarter of 2020, Misonix adopted certain changes in its quarterly financial results related to the presentation of its sales performance supplemental data to more accurately reflect the Company’s two separate sales channels - its Surgical and Wound product divisions. As a result, the Company presents total, domestic and international sales performance supplemental data for its Surgical and Wound divisions and no longer presents total, domestic and international sales performance supplemental data based on its consumables and equipment products. Further, in the Third Quarter of 2020, the Company began operating in two business segments, and disclosing the Surgical and Wound businesses as its two segments.

Long-Lived Assets

The carrying values of intangible and other long-lived assets are periodically reviewed to determine if any impairment indicators are present. If it is determined that such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable, based on undiscounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization and depreciation period, their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair value. Impairment indicators include, among other conditions, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated decline in revenue or operating profit, adverse legal or regulatory developments, accumulation of costs significantly in excess of amounts originally expected to acquire the asset and a material decrease in the fair value of some or all of the assets. Assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows generated by other asset groups. No such impairment was deemed to exist in fiscal 2021 and 2020.

Goodwill

In connection with the acquisition of Solsys, the Company has $106.5 million of goodwill recorded on its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021, $12.7 million of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill recognized from the Solsys acquisition represents the excess of the purchase price over aggregate fair value of net assets acquired and is related to the benefits expected as a result of the acquisition, including sales, and a stronger portfolio of Wound solutions that will drive growth in the would care market. Our goodwill balance as of each reporting period and by segment, includes:

Goodwill is not amortized. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of significant assets or products. Application of this impairment test requires significant judgments, including estimation of cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long term rate of growth for the Company’s business, the useful lives over which cash flows will occur and determination of the Company’s weighted average cost of capital.

The Company also compares its market capitalization to the value of its goodwill to view for evidence of impairment. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment tests for fiscal 2021 and 2020 as of March 31 of each year. No impairment of goodwill was deemed to exist in fiscal 2021 and 2020.

Patents, net of accumulated amortization

The cost of acquiring or processing patents is capitalized at cost. This amount is being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets, which is approximately 17 years. Patents totaled $789,800 and $784,318 at June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Amortization expense for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $157,835 and $137,387, respectively.

The following is a schedule of estimated future patent amortization expense as of June 30, 2021 during the following fiscal years:

		1
2022	$	105,516
2023		103,658
2024		91,234
2025		84,166

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income 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. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Should management determine that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset would be established in the period such determination was made.

The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company classifies income tax related interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated using the two-class method, which allocates earnings among common stock and participating securities to calculate EPS when an entity’s capital structure includes either two or more classes of common stock or common stock and participating securities. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities. As such, unvested shares of restricted stock of the Company are considered participating securities. The dilutive effect of options and their equivalents (including non-vested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans), is computed using the “treasury” method.

Basic income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. The following table sets forth the reconciliation of weighted average shares outstanding and diluted weighted average shares outstanding:

	2021		2020
	For the years ended
	June 30,
	2021		2020

Basic weighted average shares outstanding		17,226,190		14,670,663
Dilutive effect of restricted stock awards (participating securities)		-		-

Denominator for basic earnings per share		17,226,190		14,670,663

Dilutive effect of stock options		-		-

Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		17,226,190		14,670,663

Diluted EPS for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 as presented is the same as basic EPS as the inclusion of the effect of common share equivalents then outstanding would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS are the dilutive effect of options to purchase 351,355 and 501,554 shares of common stock for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Also excluded from the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are 159,800 and 186,600 shares, respectively, of restricted common stock which were issued in December 2016.

Research and Development

All research and development expenses are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses.

Depreciation Expense for Consigned Inventory

The Company typically provides to its United States customers, on a consignment basis, the generators used to power its BoneScalpel and SonicOne products. Title to these generators remains at all times with the Company. When these generators are deployed in the field at customer locations, the Company depreciates these units over a five-year period and charges the depreciation to selling expenses. Depreciation expense relating to consigned generators and for demonstration equipment for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $2,261,845 and $1,586,000, respectively.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling costs which were charged to customers for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were approximately $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and are reported as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling costs which were not charged to customers for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were approximately $3.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and are reported as a component of selling expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures compensation cost for all share-based payments at fair value and recognizes the cost over the vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes method to value awards and utilizes the straight-line amortization method to recognize the expense associated with the awards with graded vesting terms.

Restricted Stock Awards

The Company measures compensation cost for all restricted stock awards at fair value and recognizes the cost over the vesting period. For awards that have market conditions, the Company uses the Monte Carlo valuation method to value awards and utilizes the straight line amortization method to recognize the expense associated with the awards with graded vesting terms. Where awards have performance conditions, the Company will determine the probability of achieving those conditions and will record compensation expense when it is probable that the conditions will be met.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

F-12

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and has since issued amendments thereto, related to the accounting for leases (collectively referred to as “ASC 842”). ASC 842 establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all long-term leases. Leases will be classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition and classification in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company adopted ASC 842 on July 1, 2019. 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 consolidated financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. Entities have the option to continue to apply historical accounting under Topic 840, including its disclosure requirements, in comparative periods presented in the year of adoption. An entity that elects this option recognizes a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit in the period of adoption instead of the earliest period presented. The Company adopted the optional ASC 842 transition provisions beginning on July 1, 2019. Accordingly, the Company will continue to apply Topic 840 prior to July 1, 2019, including Topic 840 disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented. The Company elected the package of practical expedients for all its leases that commenced before July 1, 2019. The Company has evaluated its real estate lease, its copier leases and its generator rental agreements. The adoption of ASC 842 did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and had an immaterial impact on its results of operations. Based on the Company’s current agreements, upon the adoption of ASC 842 on July 1, 2019, the Company recorded an operating lease liability of approximately $436,000 and corresponding ROU assets based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments associated with the Company’s leases. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, nor is one readily available, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate of 10.5% based on information available at July 1, 2019 to determine the present value of its future minimum rental payments.

2. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of “observable inputs” and minimize the use of “unobservable inputs.” The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

At June 30, 2021 and 2020, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable were short term in nature, and their carrying amounts approximate fair value. Our current and long-term debt arrangements are classified as level 2 financial instruments.

5. Intangible Assets

In connection with the Solsys Acquisition, the Company acquired intangible assets primarily consisting of customer relationships, trade names and non-competition agreements. Amortization expense for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $1.5 million and $1.2, respectively. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line basis which approximates the expected use of the asset.

7. Stock-based Compensation Plans

At June 30, 2021, the Company had outstanding equity-linked grants under seven stock-based compensation plans (the “Plans”), as follows:

												Available
	Initial							Expired /				For
Plan	Shares		Granted			Exercised		Forfeited		Outstanding		Issuance

2005 Employee Equity Incentive Plan		500,000		547,125			497,200		48,925		1,000		-	[3]

2017 Equity Incentive Plan		1,950,000		1,391,339	[2]		3,583		128,910		1,258,846		677,571

Total											1,996,289		730,748

[1]	Excludes grant of 400,000 shares of restricted stock
[2]	Excludes grant of 10,000 shares of immediate vesting restricted stock incentive bonus
[3]	There are zero shares available for issuance because this plan is expired.

The compensation cost that has been charged against income for these plans, excluding the compensation cost for restricted stock, was $2,280,901 and $1,762,628 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and is recorded in the department associated with the employee to which the grants are issued. As of June 30, 2021, there was $8,033,083 of total unrecognized compensation cost to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years, which includes $150,724 of unrecognized compensation expense on restricted stock awards.

Stock options typically expire 10 years from the date of grant and vest over service periods, which typically are 4 years. All options are granted at the price of the Common Stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market on the date of grant as set forth in the Plans.

The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The expected volatility represents the historical price changes of the Company’s stock over a period equal to that of the expected term of the option. The Company uses the simplified method for determining the option term. The risk-free rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is based upon historical and projected dividends. The Company has historically not paid dividends and is not expected to do so in the near term.

The weighted average fair value at date of grant for options granted during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $11.17 and $7.17 per share, respectively. The fair value was estimated based on the weighted average assumptions of:

	For the years ended
	June 30, 2021
	2021			2020
Risk-free interest rates		0.58	%		0.68	%
Expected option life in years		5.60			6.03
Expected stock price volatility		60.79	%		57.53	%
Expected dividend yield		0	%		0	%

Stock options are granted with exercise prices not less than the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock, at the time of the grant, with an exercise term as determined by the Committee administering the applicable option plan (the “Committee”) not to exceed 10 years. The Committee determines the vesting period for the Company’s stock options. Generally, such stock options have vesting periods of immediate to four years. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon meeting specific retirement, death or disability criteria, and upon change of control. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company granted options to purchase 363,000 and 829,839 shares of Common Stock, respectively.

Restricted Stock Awards

On December 15, 2016, the Company issued 400,000 shares of restricted stock to its Chief Executive Officer. The awards were valued using a Monte Carlo valuation model using a stock price at the date of grant of $9.60, a term of 3 to 5 years, a risk-free interest rate of 1.6% to 2.1% and a volatility factor of 66.5%. These awards vest over a period of up to five years, subject to meeting certain service, performance and market conditions. These awards were valued at approximately $3.6 million at the date of grant and compensation expense recorded for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $491,070, and $491,950, respectively. At June 30, 2021, there was $150,724 of unrecognized compensation cost to restricted stock awards to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.4 years. The awards contain a combination of vesting terms which include time vesting, performance vesting relating to revenue achievement, and market vesting related to obtaining certain levels of Company stock prices. During fiscal 2021, the performance conditions of one of these restricted stock awards were met, resulting in 26,800 additional shares vesting. At June 30, 2021, the Company has estimated that it is probable that the performance conditions of the outstanding awards will be met.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Company has entered into operating leases primarily for real estate and to a lesser extent for office copiers. The Company has entered into one finance lease for manufacturing equipment. The Company does not expect finance leases to become material. All leases generally have terms that range from 1 year to 6 years. Operating leases are included in “Lease right-of-use assets” and Finance leases are included in “Other assets” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company’s obligation to make lease payments on operating leases are included in “Current portion of lease liabilities” and “Lease liabilities”. The Company’s obligation to make lease payments on finance leases are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance sheets. Based on the present value of the lease payments for the remaining lease term of the Company’s existing leases, the Company recognized right-of-use assets of approximately $0.4 million and lease liabilities for operating leases of approximately $0.4 million on July 1, 2019. Lease right-of-use assets and liabilities commencing after July 1, 2019 are recognized at their commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company has entered into various short-term operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. These leases are not recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, within “Operating expenses” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Lease expense for finance leases is recorded as Depreciation expense within “Operating expenses”, and in “Interest expense”.

During the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $601,296 and $561,809, respectively, in total operating lease cost for right-of-use assets.

Because the rate implicit in each operating lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. The finance lease contains a stated rate of 3.0%, and therefore the rate explicit in the lease was used for the finance lease. There were no new leases entered into in the prior period. The incremental borrowing rate used upon transition to ASC 842 was 10.5%.

Former Chinese Distributor - Litigation

On March 23, 2017, our former distributor in China, Cicel (Beijing) Science & Technology Co., Ltd., filed a lawsuit against us and certain of our officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The complaint alleged that we improperly terminated our contract with the former distributor. The complaint sought various remedies, including compensatory and punitive damages, specific performance and preliminary and post judgment injunctive relief, and asserted various causes of action, including breach of contract, unfair competition, tortious interference with contract, fraudulent inducement, and conversion. On October 7, 2017, the court granted our motion to dismiss each of the tort claims asserted against us, and also granted the individual defendants’ motion to dismiss all claims asserted against them. On January 23, 2020, the Court granted Cicel’s motion to amend its complaint, to include claims for alleged defamation and theft of trade secrets in addition to the breach of contract claim. We believe that we have various legal and factual defenses to the allegations in the complaint and intend to defend the action vigorously. Discovery in the matter ended on August 5, 2021, and there is no trial date currently set.

Revolving Credit Facility

Through the Solsys Acquisition, the Company became party to a $5.0 million revolving line of credit loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, originally effective January 22, 2019 (as amended and supplemented, the “Prior Solsys Credit Agreement”). The line of credit had an original maturity date of January 22, 2021.

On December 26, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “New Loan and Security Agreement”) among the Company, Misonix OpCo, Inc. and Solsys, as borrowers, and Silicon Valley Bank. The New Loan and Security Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $20.0 million, including borrowings and letters of credit. The New Loan and Security Agreement replaces the $5.0 million Prior Solsys Credit Agreement. The Company did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the Prior Solsys Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facility were used in part to repay the amount of $3.75 million outstanding under the Prior Solsys Credit Agreement, and the balance may be used by the Company for general corporate purposes and working capital. The New Credit Facility matures on December 26, 2022. Interest on outstanding indebtedness under the New Credit Facility accrues at a rate equal to the greater of the “Prime Rate” and 5.25%. In addition, on each year anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company is required to pay an anniversary fee of $0.1 million.

The New Loan and Security Agreement contains representations and warranties and covenants that the Company believes are customary for agreements of this type, including covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries limiting indebtedness, liens, substantial asset sales and mergers as well as financial maintenance covenants and other provisions. The New Loan and Security Agreement contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lender may accelerate the indebtedness under the New Credit Facility, provided, that in the case of certain bankruptcy or insolvency events of default, the indebtedness under the New Credit Facility will automatically accelerate. If the New Credit Facility or the New Loan and Security Agreement terminates before the maturity date of December 26, 2022, then the Company must pay the then-owing amounts, in addition to a termination fee equal to 1% of the New Credit Facility at that time. The termination fee would not apply if the New Credit Facility or the New Loan and Security Agreement terminates before the maturity date for either of the following reasons: (1) the New Credit Facility is replaced with another new credit facility from Silicon Valley Bank or (2) Silicon Valley Bank sells, transfers, assigns or negotiates its obligations, rights and benefits under the New Loan and Security Agreement and related loan documentation to another person or entity that is not an affiliate of Silicon Valley Bank and the Company terminates the New Loan and Security Agreement or the New Credit Facility within sixty days thereof (unless the Company consented to that sale, transfer, assignment or negotiation).

F-19

As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding principal balance of the New Credit Facility is $10.5 million.

Notes Payable

On September 27, 2019, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (“SWK Credit Agreement”) with SWK Holdings Corporation (“SWK”) pursuant to a commitment letter whereby SWK (a) consented to the Solsys Acquisition and (b) agreed to provide financing to the Company. Through the Solsys Acquisition, the Company became party to a $20.1 million note payable to SWK. The SWK credit facility originally provided an additional $5.0 million in financing, totaling approximately $25.1 million, a maturity date of June 30, 2023, and an interest rate that varied between LIBOR plus 7.00% and LIBOR plus 10.25% (depending on the Company’s consolidated EBITDA or market capitalization).

On December 23, 2019 the parties amended the SWK Credit Agreement (as so amended, the “Amended SWK Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, provide an additional $5 million of term loans, for total aggregate borrowings of up to approximately $30.1 million, to modify the interest payable to between LIBOR plus 7.50% and LIBOR plus 10.25% (depending on the Company’s consolidated EBITDA or market capitalization), and to amend the financial covenants thereunder.

On December 16, 2020 the parties further amended the SWK Credit Agreement to, among other things, (1) modify the interest payable to accrue interest at a variable rate of the greater of 2.0% or the three-month LIBOR, with a maximum variable rate of 3%, plus a margin of between 7.5% and 10.25% (depending on the Company’s EBITDA or market capitalization), (2) extend the interest only period such that quarterly principal payments of $1.25 million will begin in May, 2022, (3) extend the maturity date to June 30, 2024, (4) increase the exit fee to 2.0% of the principal amount of all loans advanced to the Company, and (5) extend the period during which the Company is obligated to pay a prepayment penalty to March, 2023.

The Company may prepay the loans subject to a prepayment fee of (a) 3.2% of the amount prepaid if such prepayment is made prior to September 27, 2021, (b) 1.00% of the amount prepaid if such prepayment is made on or after September 27, 2021 and prior to March 31, 2023 or (c) $0 if such prepayment is made on or after March 31, 2023.

As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding principal balance of the term loans under the Amended SWK Credit Agreement is approximately $30.1 million.

Under the terms of the Amended SWK Credit Agreement, the Company is required to meet certain additional financial covenants requiring, among other things, (a) a minimum amount of unencumbered liquid assets that varies based on the Company’s market capitalization, (b) minimum aggregate revenue of specified amounts for the nine month period ending March 31, 2020, and for the 12 month period ending on the last day of the subsequent fiscal quarters and (c) minimum EBITDA at levels that will vary based on the Company’s market capitalization. The Company’s obligations under the Amended SWK Credit Agreement are (i) guaranteed by Misonix OpCo, Inc., and (ii) secured by a first lien on substantially all assets of the Company, Solsys and Misonix OpCo, Inc. and a second lien position on accounts receivable and inventory of the same entities.

The Company is in compliance with all covenants in its financing agreements as of June 30, 2021.
