We have concluded that a substantial doubt is deemed to exist concerning our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our near-term prospects are dependent on the commercial success of our product candidates, if approved, and if we are unable to successfully commercialize them, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially harmed.
The manufacture of our product candidates is complex, we have limited experience manufacturing commercial product, and we have in the past and may in the future encounter batch failures and difficulties in production. If we or any third-party supplier encounter such difficulties, our ability to supply our product candidates for clinical trials or, if approved, for commercial sale could be delayed or halted entirely.
The sizes of the market opportunities for our product candidates has not been established with precision and are estimates that management believes to be reasonable. If these market opportunities are smaller than we estimate, or if any approval that we obtain is based on a narrower definition of the relevant patient population, our revenue and ability to achieve profitability might be materially and adversely affected.
Our product candidates, if approved, may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success.
There is uncertainty with respect to third-party coverage and reimbursement of our ATEVs, if approved, and our other product candidates. They may also be subject to unfavorable pricing regulations, third-party reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives, any of which could harm our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition.
Lack of experience by investigators and surgeons with our ATEVs can lead to incorrect implantation or follow-up procedures which could harm the results of our clinical trials and market acceptance of our ATEVs, if approved.
Product liability lawsuits against us could cause us to incur substantial liabilities that may not be covered by our limited product liability insurance and may limit the development, approval and commercialization of our ATEVs and any other product candidates that we develop in the future.

We are pioneering the development and manufacture of off-the-shelf, universally implantable, bioengineered human tissues, advanced tissue constructs and organ systems with the goal of improving the lives of patients and transforming the practice of medicine. We believe our regenerative medicine technology has the potential to overcome limitations in existing standards of care and address the lack of significant innovation in products that support tissue repair, reconstruction and replacement. We are leveraging our novel, scalable technology platform to develop proprietary bioengineered, acellular human tissues for use in the treatment of diseases and conditions across a range of anatomic locations in multiple therapeutic areas.
