RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Aug. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Asensus Surgical, Inc. (NYSE American: ASXC), a global leader of innovative digital solutions for the operating room, announced its operating and financial results for the second quarter 2024.
Recent Highlights
- Announced a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with KARL STORZ Endoscopy-America, Inc. ("KARL STORZ"), a wholly owned direct subsidiary of KARL STORZ SE & Co. KG, an independent, family-owned global medical technology company. Under the Merger Agreement, KARL STORZ will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Asensus Surgical for $0.35 per share in cash (the “Merger”)
- Leading independent proxy advisory firms, ISS and Glass Lewis, recommend that stockholders vote FOR the merger proposal
- Second quarter revenue of $2.2 million
- The Company had cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, of approximately $7.8 million at June 30, 2024
"We're at a critical juncture for our company. After thoroughly exploring all reasonably available options, we believe the Merger proposal offers the best opportunity to maximize value for our stockholders in our current circumstances,” said Anthony Fernando, Asensus Surgical President and CEO. “While we understand the offer price may not meet everyone's expectations, it does provide a definite return in a challenging financial environment. If the Merger is not approved, we expect to seek bankruptcy protection. We encourage all stockholders to carefully review the information we've provided and to participate in this crucial vote. Every vote matters as we determine the best path forward for Asensus Surgical and all of our stakeholders."
Company Urges Stockholder Participation in Critical Merger Vote as Extended Deadline Approaches
The Company’s Special Meeting of Stockholders regarding the merger proposal with KARL STORZ was recently adjourned to Tuesday August 20, at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time). While we have received proxies for approximately 55% of our outstanding shares with over 80% voted in favor of the merger proposal, we still need more votes to approve the transaction. Approval from a majority of all shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote as of our record date of June 28, 2024 is required for approval.
If not approved, the Company will incur significant near-term financial obligations, including a repayment to KARL STORZ of their $20 million securitized note, plus interest and prepayment premium, as well as associated transaction expenses. These obligations exceed the Company’s assets as reflected on its current balance sheet. As outlined in the Proxy Statement we filed with the SEC on July 5, 2024, over $300 million would need to be raised to support operations through 2027.
The Board of Directors, after careful consideration, concluded that this merger proposal represents the best choice to maximize stockholder value. Leading independent proxy advisory firms, ISS and Glass Lewis, have also recommended that the merger proposal is in stockholders' best interests. If the Merger is not approved, we expect to seek bankruptcy protection in order to maximize the value of our assets as we seek an orderly liquidation of the company.
KARL STORZ's merger offer stands at $0.35 per share. While lower than historical valuations, we believe this represents the best available price given current circumstances. Prior to accepting this deal, various alternatives were explored, including partnerships and potential acquisitions, but no other potential counterparty indicated interest in a transaction at a higher price.
Stockholder participation in this vote is crucial. Abstaining or failing to vote is effectively the same as voting against the merger proposal, as approval is needed from a majority of outstanding shares, not just a majority of votes cast.
Any stockholder with questions about the Special Meeting or in need of assistance in voting their shares should contact the Company’s proxy solicitor:

The non-GAAP financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, which provide management with additional insight into the Company’s results of operations from period to period without certain non-cash charges, are calculated using the following adjustments:
a) Intangible assets that are amortized consist of developed technology and purchased patent rights recorded at cost and amortized over 7 to 10 years.
b) Contingent consideration in connection with the acquisition of the Senhance System in 2015 is recorded as a liability and is the estimate of the fair value of potential milestone payments related to business acquisitions. Contingent consideration is measured at fair value using a probability of occurrence related to the Merger Agreement with KARL STORZ Endoscopy-America, Inc. and Karl Storz California Inc. for a proposed Merger and a Monte-Carlo simulation utilizing significant unobservable inputs including the probability of achieving each of the potential milestones, revenue volatility, EURO to USD exchange rate, and an estimated discount rate associated with the risks of the expected cash flows attributable to the various milestones. Significant increases or decreases in any of the probabilities of success or changes in expected timelines for achievement of any of these milestones would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value of these milestones, respectively, and commensurate changes to the associated liability. The contingent consideration is revalued at each reporting period and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
c) The Company recorded warrant liabilities related to common stock warrants issued in the registered direct offering in July 2023.
Warrant liabilities were recorded at their initial estimated fair value. Adjustments associated with changes in fair value of the warrant liabilities are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
