Commitments and Contingencies | Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases The Company has a long-term operating lease for office, industrial, and laboratory space which was entered into in May 2017. On September 27, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Lease (the “Lease Amendment”), which amended the Lease Agreement to document the exercise of its option to extend the term of the lease for an additional 64 months, commencing February 1, 2023, and expiring on May 31, 2028 (the “Extension Term”). Pursuant to the amendment, the Company will pay initial monthly payments of $13,129, beginning February 2023, subject to 3% annual increases. Rent expense for the years ended April 30, 2025 and 2024 were $203,459 and 187,517, respectively. The Company records right-of-use assets and liabilities at the present value of the fixed lease payments over the term at the commencement date. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate of 12% to determine the present value of the lease as the rate implicit in the lease is typically not readily available. Information related to the Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities consist of the following:
As of April 30, 2025, future maturities of lease liabilities due under lease agreements for future fiscal years are as follows:
Litigation From time to time, Management may be subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of those matters will have a material adverse effect to the financial position, operating results or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance such legal proceedings will not have a material impact. Management is not aware of any material claims outstanding or pending against the Company as April 30, 2025. Royalty Agreements In 2013, the Company entered into an agreement (“Technology Agreement”) with its founder, conveying ownership of all intellectual property and rights to the Company. As part of that agreement, the Company will make royalty payments, based upon paid MyoVista wavECG device unit sales, as follows: a) $500 on each of the first 2,400 MyoVista wavECG devices b) $200 on each MyoVista wavECG device thereafter until royalties total $3,500,000. The royalty obligation has a first priority security interest and pledge on the covered technology (as defined in the Technology Agreement, which essentially is comprised of the intellectual property of the MyoVista wavECG device) in priority to the debt holders of the $1M Loan and Security Agreement as discussed further in Note 4. Upon (i) the aggregate payment of $3,000,000 of royalties; (ii) the Common Stock having a closing quoted share price of $6,875 per share or more; or (iii) receipt by the Company of a bona fide offer valuing the Common Stock at $6,875 or more, then the secured interest and pledge shall be released. In the event of a bankruptcy of the Company, any balance of the $3,500,000 royalty not paid at that point would accelerate and become an immediately due debt obligation of the Company with the benefit of the secured interest and pledge (if it remained at such time). In December 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with The University Court of The University of Glasgow (“Glasgow”) for a non-exclusive license of the Glasgow algorithm interpretive analysis for the conventional ECG trace. The agreement was amended in March 2023 and as part of the agreement, the Company is required to make royalty payments, based upon MyoVista wavECG device unit sales dependent on sale volumes per year, subject to minimum annual fees. To date, such amounts have been expensed to research and development as the Glasgow algorithm has been part of the device development and will form part of the submission for FDA clearance of the MyoVista wavECG device. Collaboration Agreements Rutgers Collaboration Agreement On November 29, 2022, the Company entered into a multi-year Collaboration Agreement with Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, to research and develop AI-based ECG algorithms for new or improved ECG indications, which is expected to accelerate our product development pipeline and further expand the clinical value of an ECG for low-cost detection of heart disease. Mount Sinai Collaboration Agreement On September 20, 2023, the Company entered into multiple definitive license agreements (each a “License Agreement” and collectively, the “License Agreements”) and a securities purchase agreement with Mount Sinai to commercialize a range of AI cardiovascular algorithms developed by Mount Sinai as well as a memorandum of understanding for ongoing cooperation encompassing de-identified data access, on-going research, and the evaluation of the MyoVista wavECG. The License Agreements, of which there are eleven in total, cover rights to thirteen AI cardiovascular algorithms, two data science methods for use with ECG waveforms and three filed patents. On November 15, 2023, the Company closed the transaction with Mount Sinai and issued to Mount Sinai shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company as consideration (“MTS Securities”) (as discussed in Note 5). |
