1. Organization and Nature of Business

 

Augmedix, Inc. (the “Company”, “we” or “our”) was incorporated in 2013 and launched its commercial real-time, remote documentation services in 2014.

 

Augmedix delivers industry-leading, ambient medical documentation and data products to healthcare systems, physician practices, hospitals, and telemedicine practitioners.

 

Augmedix is on a mission to help clinicians and patients form a human connection at the point of care without the intrusion of technology. Augmedix’s products extract data from natural physician-patient conversations and convert it to medical notes in real time, which are seamlessly transferred to the Electronic Health Record (“EHR”) system. To achieve this, the Company’s Notebuilder Platform uses Automated Speech Recognition and Natural Language Processing, supported by medical documentation specialists.

 

Leveraging this platform, Augmedix’s products relieve clinicians of administrative burden, in turn, reducing burnout and increasing both clinician and patient satisfaction.

 

Augmedix is headquartered in San Francisco, CA, with offices in three (3) countries around the world.

  

Liquidity

 

The Company has historically funded its operations primarily by debt and equity financings prior to the merger with Malo Holdings and subsequently funded its operations through cash proceeds obtained as part of the listing on the OTC market and the listing on Nasdaq. As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s existing sources of liquidity included cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $20.6 million, plus up to $5.0 million in incremental capital available through the SVB Loan Agreement. The Company has a limited history of operations and has incurred negative cash flows from operating activities and loss from operations in the past as reflected in the accumulated deficit of $131.0 million as of March 31, 2023. We have relied on debt and equity financing to fund operations to date and we expect losses and negative cash flows to continue, primarily as a result of continued research, development and marketing efforts. Our cash balance will provide sufficient resources to meet working capital needs for over twelve months from the filing date of the March 31, 2023 Form 10-Q. Over the longer term, if we do not generate sufficient revenue from new and existing products, additional debt or equity financing may be required along with a reduction in expenditures. Additionally, there is no assurance if we require additional future financing that such financing will be available on terms which are acceptable to us, or at all. 

  

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company is subject to a number of risks associated with companies at a similar stage, including dependence on key personnel, competition from similar products and larger companies, ongoing changes within the industry, ability to obtain adequate financing to support growth, the ability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel to manage the anticipated growth of the Company, and general economic conditions, including ongoing economic impacts from the conflict in Ukraine, economic volatility caused by rapidly increasing interest rates, and instability within the banking system.
