Organization and Basis of Presentation | |
Organization and Basis of Presentation | 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc. (collectively, with its subsidiaries, “Orchestra” or the “Company”) (formerly known as Health Sciences Acquisitions Corporation 2) is a biomedical innovation company accelerating high-impact technologies to patients through risk-reward sharing partnerships with leading medical device companies. The Company’s partnership-enabled business model focuses on forging strategic collaborations with leading medical device companies to drive successful global commercialization of products it develops. The Company’s flagship product candidates are atrioventricular interval modulation (“AVIM”) therapy (formerly referred to as BackBeat Cardiac Neuromodulation Therapy (“BackBeat CNT”)), for the treatment of hypertension (“HTN”), a significant risk factor for death worldwide, and Virtue Sirolimus AngioInfusion Balloon (“Virtue SAB”) for the treatment of atherosclerotic artery disease, the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Prior to January 26, 2023, the Company was a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. On January 26, 2023 (the “Closing”), the Company consummated the business combination contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 4, 2022 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 21, 2022, and Amendment No. 2 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 21, 2022, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Health Sciences Acquisitions Corporation 2, a special purpose acquisition company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company in 2020 (“HSAC2”), HSAC Olympus Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of HSAC2 (“Merger Sub”), and Orchestra BioMed, Inc. (“Legacy Orchestra”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) HSAC2 deregistered in the Cayman Islands in accordance with the Companies Act (2022 Revision) (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands and domesticated as a Delaware corporation in accordance with Section 388 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “Domestication”) and (ii) Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy Orchestra, with Legacy Orchestra as the surviving company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of Orchestra (the “Merger” and, together with the Domestication and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”). As part of the Domestication, the Company’s name was changed from “Health Sciences Acquisitions Corporation 2” to “Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc.” On January 27, 2023, our common stock (“Company Common Stock”) began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “OBIO.” Legacy Orchestra, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, was incorporated in Delaware in January 2017 and was formed to acquire operating and other assets as well as to raise capital conducted through private placements. In May 2018, Legacy Orchestra concurrently completed its formation mergers (the “Formation Mergers”) with Caliber Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, BackBeat Medical, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, and FreeHold Surgical, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Legacy Orchestra completed the conversions of BackBeat Medical, Inc. to BackBeat Medical, LLC (“BackBeat”), a Delaware limited liability company, of FreeHold Surgical, Inc. to FreeHold Surgical, LLC (“FreeHold”) and of Caliber Therapeutics, Inc. to Caliber Therapeutics, LLC (“Caliber”), a Delaware limited liability company, in 2019. Caliber Caliber Therapeutics, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in October 2005 and began development of its lead product Virtue SAB in 2008. Virtue SAB is a patented drug/device combination product candidate for the treatment of artery disease that delivers a proprietary extended release formulation of sirolimus called SirolimusEFR to the vessel wall during balloon angioplasty without any coating on the balloon surface or the need for leaving a permanent implant such as a stent in the artery. In 2019, Legacy Orchestra entered into a distribution agreement with Terumo Corporation and Terumo Medical Corporation (collectively “Terumo”) for global development and commercialization of Virtue SAB (the “Terumo Agreement”) (See Note 3 – “Terumo Agreement”). BackBeat BackBeat Medical, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in January 2010 and began development of its lead product AVIM therapy that same year. AVIM therapy is a patented implantable cardiac stimulation-based treatment for HTN that is designed to immediately, substantially and persistently lower blood pressure while simultaneously modulating autonomic nervous system responses that normally drive and maintain blood pressure higher. Refer to Note 4 for details regarding the Exclusive License and Collaboration Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2022, by and among, Legacy Orchestra, BackBeat and Medtronic, Inc. (an affiliate of Medtronic plc) (the “Medtronic Agreement”). FreeHold FreeHold Surgical, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in May 2010 and began development of its hands-free, intracorporeal retractor device for minimally invasive surgery in 2012. FreeHold is engaged in the development, sales and marketing of its retractor products that provide optimized visual and total surgeon control during laparoscopic and robotic procedures. Basis of Presentation and Liquidity The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulation of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These condensed statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to fairly present the results of the interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. Operating results and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations for interim reporting of the SEC. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025 together with the related notes thereto. The Company has a limited operating history and the sales and income potential of its businesses and markets are unproven. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $348.0 million and has experienced net losses each year since its inception. The Company expects to incur substantial operating losses in future periods and will require additional capital as it seeks to advance its products to commercialization. The Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties similar to those of other companies of the same size within the biomedical device industry, such as uncertainty of clinical trial outcomes, uncertainty of additional funding, and history of operating losses. The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern, which requires management to assess the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Based on the available balance of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2025, and subsequent proceeds received (see Note 16 – “Subsequent Events”), management has concluded that sufficient capital is available to fund its operations and meet cash requirements through the one-year period subsequent to the issuance date of these financial statements. Management may consider plans to raise capital through the one-year period subsequent to the issuance date of these financial statements through issuance of equity securities, debt securities, and/or additional development and commercialization partnerships for other products within the Company’s development pipeline. The source, timing and availability of any future financing will depend principally upon market conditions and on the progress of the Company’s research and development programs. |
