Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts; unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of Reshape Lifesciences Inc. (the “Company” or “ReShape”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed on March 11, 2021. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted.

In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statement for Correction of Immaterial Errors

The Company revised the accompanying statement of operations for the period ended June 30, 2020, and condensed consolidated balance sheet and condensed consolidated statement of equity as of December 31, 2020, to reflect the correction of an immaterial error for amounts previously not reflected in the statements attributable to the share ratio adjustment to the Company’s common stock related to the merger with Obalon Therapeutics, Inc. (“Obalon”). This revision has no impact on the Company’s net income or retained earnings.

The following table summarizes the effect of the revision on each financial statement line item for the periods ended, as indicated (in thousands, except per share information):

Reverse Stock Split

On June 15, 2021, and immediately prior to the closing of the merger, the Company effected the reverse stock split. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for the period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect the reverse stock split. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Unless otherwise noted, all references to shares of the Company’s common stock and per share amounts have also been adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio.

Acquisition

The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The results of businesses acquired in a business combination are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. Purchase accounting results in assets and liabilities of an acquired business generally being recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Any excess consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative related costs in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company performs valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and allocates the purchase price to its respective assets and liabilities. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgment and estimates.

Upon completion of the business combination on June 15, 2021, with Obalon, the transaction was treated as a “reverse acquisition” for financial accounting purposes. As a result of the controlling interest of the former shareholders of ReShape, for financial statement reporting and accounting purposes, ReShape was considered the acquirer under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-10-55. The reverse acquisition is deemed a capital transaction in substance whereas the historical assets and liabilities of Obalon before the business combination were replaced with the historical financial statements of ReShape in all future filings with the SEC.

Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets relate to in-process research and development ("IPR&D") acquired in business combinations. The estimated fair values of IPR&D projects acquired in a business combination which have not reached technological feasibility are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the projects. In accordance with guidance within FASB ASC 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” goodwill and identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives are not subject to amortization but must be evaluated for impairment.

We evaluate long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, for impairment by comparison of the carrying amounts to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by such assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Should an impairment exist, the impairment loss would be measured based on the excess carrying value of the asset over the asset’s fair value or estimates of future discounted cash flows.

Table of Contents

For goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, in-process research and development, we review for impairment annually and upon the occurrence of certain events as required by ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other.” Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested at least annually for impairment and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. We review goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If we are able to determine that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we would conclude that goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is zero or negative, the second step of the impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any, when it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The Company did not record any impairment loss for goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain accrued and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. Refer to Note 5 regarding the fair value of debt instruments and Note 9 regarding fair value measurements and inputs of warrants.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

New accounting standards adopted by the Company in 2021 are discussed below or in the related notes, where appropriate.

In May 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This update provides guidance to clarify and reduce diversity in an accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that is not within the scope of another Topic. An entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. This update additionally provides further guidance on measuring the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange on the basis of the substance of the transaction, in the same manner as if cash had been paid as consideration. This guidance is effective for the fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted this guidance early and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued authoritative guidance intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes: ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance eliminates certain exceptions to the general approach to the income tax accounting model and adds new guidance to reduce the complexity in accounting for income taxes. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

New accounting standards not yet adopted are discussed below.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses on financial assets held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, which amended the new standard by providing targeted transition relief. The new guidance replaces the existing incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to estimate all expected credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-11, which amended the new standard by providing additional clarification. This guidance is effective for the fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(2) Liquidity and Management’s Plans

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had net working capital of approximately $27.3 million, primarily due to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $29.3 million. The Company’s principal source of liquidity as of September 30, 2021, consisted of approximately $29.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, and $3.5 million of accounts receivable. In addition, the Company had its PPP loan and accrued interest forgiven in full and paid back the $10.5 million of debt with an institutional investor. For further details, see Note 5.

The Company’s anticipated operations include plans to (i) manufacture, and promote the sales and operations of the LAP-BAND^® product line in order to expand sales domestically and internationally as well as to obtain cost savings synergies, (ii) introduce to the market place reshapecare^TM and ReShape Marketplace as an extension of reshapecare (iii) continue clinical testing of the ReShape Vest, (iv) continue development of the Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation, (v) seek opportunities to leverage our intellectual property portfolio and custom development services to provide third-party sales and licensing opportunities, and (vi) explore and capitalize on synergistic opportunities to expand our portfolio and offer future minimally invasive treatments and therapies in the obesity continuum of care, which includes the Obalon product line from the recently finalized merger with Obalon that was completed on June 15, 2021. With the recent equity raise the Company believes that it has the flexibility to manage the growth of its expenditures and operations.

COVID-19 Risk and Uncertainties and CARES Act

Since the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic led to unprecedented restrictions on, distributions in, and other related impacts on business and personal activities, including a shift in healthcare priorities, which resulted in a significant decline in medical procedures in 2020 in the United States and foreign countries. Concerns remain regarding the pace of economic recovery due to virus resurgence across the globe from the Delta variant and other virus mutations as well as vaccine distribution and hesitancy. The United States and other foreign governments may continue existing measures or implement new restrictions and other requirements in light of the continuing spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the full extent to which the pandemic will directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition, including sales, expenses, manufacturing, clinical trials, research and development costs, reserves and allowances, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict. These developments include, but are not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak (including new and more contagious variance of COVID-19), its severity, the actions to contain the virus or address its impact, the timing, distribution, public acceptance and efficacy of vaccines and other treatments, United States and foreign governments actions to respond to the reduction of global activity, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.” The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, increased limitations on qualified charitable contributions, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The CARES Act established the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under which the Company received a PPP loan. On February 3, 2021, the Company submitted the application for PPP loan forgiveness according to the terms and conditions of the

United States Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Loan Forgiveness Application (Revised June 24, 2002). On March 1, 2021, the Company received confirmation from the SBA that, the PPP Loan had been forgiven in full including all interest incurred. This may still be subject to audit by the SBA or relevant authorities, subject to terms and conditions of the PPP program. The Company was also able to benefit from the employee recognition credit. For further details on the PPP loan and the employee recognition credit, see Note 5 below.

CARES Act

On April 24, 2020, the Company entered into a PPP Loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) under the PPP, which is part of the CARES Act administered by the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”). As part of the application for these funds, the Company in good faith, has certified that the current economic uncertainty made the loan request necessary to support the ongoing operations of the Company. This certification further requires the Company to take into account our current business activity and our ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support ongoing operations in a manner that is not significantly detrimental to the business. Under this program, the Company received proceeds of $1.0 million from the PPP Loan. In accordance with the requirements of the PPP, the Company intends to use proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs, rent and utilities. The PPP Loan has a 1.00% interest rate per annum, matures on April 24, 2022 and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the SBA under the PPP.

On February 23, 2021, the Company submitted the application for PPP loan forgiveness, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the SBA’s Loan Forgiveness Application (revised June 24, 2020). On March 1, 2021, the Company received confirmation from the SBA that the PPP Loan was forgiven in full including all interest incurred, which resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment of $1.0 million, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Under the provisions of the CARES Act, the Company is eligible for a refundable employee retention credit subject to certain criteria. The Company recognized a $0.5 million employee recognition credit during the nine months

ended September 30, 2021. There was no additional amount recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Credit Agreement

On March 25, 2020, the Company executed a credit agreement up to $3.5 million, with an institutional investor (the “Lender”), who holds warrants in connection with the June 2019 and September 2019 private placement transactions. See Note 8 for additional details. On the day of closing, the Company received $2.5 million and the additional $1.0 million may be drawn from time to time 30 days after the closing date but prior to five months after the closing date, in $500 thousand increments per draw. On June 23, 2020, the Company made the first additional draw of $500 thousand and on July 29, 2020 the second $500 thousand draw was made. As required by the terms of this credit agreement, the lender exercised its warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,085,834 shares of common stock with a current exercise price of $0.12 per warrant on April 15, 2020, in which the Company received net proceeds of $0.6 million. In addition, the Company issued to the lender 1,200,000 Series G warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common stock. As an inducement to the Lender to enter into the amendment and make the additional loans contemplated thereby, the Company issued to the Lender an additional 1,200,000 Series G warrants dated September 14, 2020 to purchase an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common stock. The original Series G warrants were valued using the relative fair value basis and the amount was recorded as part of the debt issuance costs. See Note 9 for additional details.

On September 14, 2020, the Company and the Lender entered into an amendment to the credit agreement that increased the amount available under delayed draw term loans by $2.0 million. The Company borrowed $1.0 million of the available amount immediately and the remaining $1.0 million will be available in increments of least $500 thousand with at least 30 days between borrowings and issued an additional 1,200,000 Series G Warrants. The Company evaluated the accounting related to the amendment and in conjunction with the warrants issued. Based on this analysis the Company determined the agreements are substantially different and extinguished the original credit agreement and recorded the amended credit agreement as a new debt at a fair value of $3.9 million. As a result in 2020, the Company recorded a debt discount of approximately $0.6 million and a $2.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt which is comprised of the fair value of the warrants and unamortized debt issuance cost with the original credit agreement, offset by the debt discount. Pursuant to the amendment of the credit agreement, the maturity date of the loans was March 31, 2021 and the loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5%.

On December 16, 2020, the Company and the Lender entered into the third amendment to the credit agreement that increased the amount available under delayed draw term loans by an additional $4.0 million. The Company borrowed the entire $4.0 million of the available amount immediately and issued an additional 4,000,000 Series G Warrants. The Company evaluated the accounting related to the amendment and in conjunction with the warrants issued. Based on this analysis the Company determined the agreements are substantially different and extinguished the original credit agreement and recorded the amended credit agreement as a new debt at a fair value of $8.9 million. As a result in 2020, the Company recorded a debt discount of approximately $0.6 million and a $5.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt which is comprised of the fair value of the warrants and unamortized debt discount cost with the original credit agreement, offset by the debt discount related to the new debt. At December 31, 2020 there was approximately $0.5 million of unamortized debt discount. Pursuant to the amendment of the credit agreement, the maturity date of the loan was March 31, 2021 and the loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5%.

On January 19, 2021, the Company and the Lender entered into an amendment to the credit agreement that increased the amount available under delayed draw term loans by $1.0 million, which was used to fund the $1.0 million escrow fund securing the termination fee under the Merger Agreement and issued an additional 1,000,000 Series G Warrants. The Company evaluated the accounting related to the amendment and in conjunction with the warrants issued. Based on this analysis the Company determined the agreements are substantially different and extinguished the original credit agreement and recorded the amended credit agreement as a new debt at a fair value of $10.0 million. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded a debt discount of approximately $0.5 million and a $3.0 million loss on extinguishment of debt, which is comprised of the fair value of the warrants and unamortized debt issuance cost with the original credit agreement, offset by the debt discount. At March 31, 2021, there was approximately $0.1 million of unamortized debt discount. Pursuant to the amendment of the credit agreement, the maturity date of the loans are March 31, 2021 and the loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5%.

Table of Contents

On March 10, 2021, the Company and the Lender entered into an amendment to the credit agreement that extended the maturity date from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022. The Company has accounted for this amendment as a debt modification. The associated unamortized debt discount on the January 19, 2021 amendment of $0.1 million will be amortized as interest expense over the term of the amended credit agreement.

On June 28, 2021, the Company entered into a warrant exercise agreement with existing accredited investors, including the Lender, to exercise certain outstanding warrants. For further details on this transaction see Note 9. The Company used some of the proceeds from this transaction to pay off the $10.5 million of debt outstanding under the credit agreement. At September 30, 2021, there was no outstanding amount under the credit agreement.

Asset Purchase Consideration Payable

The asset purchase consideration payable related to the Company’s December 2018 acquisition of the Lap-Band product line from Apollo Endosurgery, Inc. (“Apollo”), was initially recorded at net present value using a discount rate of 5.1%. The asset purchase consideration payable was originally secured by a first security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, but that security interest terminated in accordance with its terms in October 2019. At September 30, 2021, the aggregate carrying value of the current asset purchase consideration payable of approximately $3.0 million, as adjusted for accretion of interest of approximately $0.7 million.

(6) Leases

The Company has noncancelable operating leases for office and warehouse space in San Clemente and Carlsbad, California, as well as noncancelable operating leases for certain office equipment that expire at various dates through 2022. The Company does not have any short-term leases or financing lease arrangements and the effects of any lease modifications have not been material. Certain of the Company’s equipment leases include variable lease payments that are adjusted periodically based on actual usage. Lease and non-lease components are accounted for separately.

Operating lease costs was $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $0.5 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Variable lease costs were not material.

(7) Acquisition

On June 15, 2021, the Company completed the previously announced merger with Obalon, which was treated as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes, for an aggregate purchase price of $30.6 million. This includes the issuance of 3,340,035 shares of common stock valued at $30.6 million at the closing market price of the day of merger and the cancellation of 2,680,301 shares of common stock. As a result of the controlling interest of the former shareholders of ReShape, for financial statement reporting and accounting purposes, ReShape was considered the acquirer under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805-10-55. The reverse acquisition is deemed a capital transaction in substance whereas the historical assets and liabilities of Obalon before the business combination were replaced with the historical financial statements of ReShape in all future filings with the SEC. Acquisition related costs of $2.3 million were recorded in general and administrative expense for the nine months September 30, 2021.

Tangible and intangible assets acquired were recorded based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded to goodwill. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, primarily related to inventory, developed technology, goodwill (including the deductibility for tax purposes) and income tax related accruals:


Current assets	$	6,348
Property and equipment, net		848
Right-of-use assets		335
Other assets		1,898
Goodwill		21,053
Developed technology		2,730
Liabilities assumed		(2,650)
Total purchase price		30,562
Less: cash acquired		(5,207)
Total purchase price, net of cash acquired	$	25,355

As part of the warrants agreements there was a fundamental transaction provision that would provide the holders a cash payment based on a Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants. This clause was valid for 30 days subsequent to the date of the transaction. The Company performed a preliminary valuation of the warrants and recorded a liability at the time of the merger of $2.0 million. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company completed its valuation of these warrants which resulted in a liability for the warrants of $1.4 million, the decrease of $0.6 million, to the liability had a corresponding decrease to goodwill. The Company had one of the holders exercise the fundamental transaction option, and rather than paying cash both parties agreed on the Company issuing shares of common stock and new warrants to this investor. See Notes 8 and 9 below for additional details. As the 30 day period passed, the Company valued the remaining warrants using a Black-Scholes model with an exercise price ranging from $13.20 to $15.00 per share, a risk free rate of 0.44%, a volatility rate of 122.1% and a dividend rate of 0. This resulted in a total fair value of $0.9 million as of July 15, 2021, with the change in fair value being recognized as a component of warrant expense. The ending liability of $0.5 million was reclassified from a current liability to APIC.

The size of the Obalon acquisition necessitates use of the allowable measurement period to adequately analyze all the factors used in establishing the asset and liability fair values as of the acquisition date. The preliminary acquisition

Table of Contents

accounting is based upon the Company’s estimates of fair value. The primary areas of the preliminary acquisition accounting that are not yet finalized include the following: (i) finalizing the review and valuation of property and equipment (including the models, key assumptions, estimates and inputs used), (ii) finalizing the review and valuation of related intangible assets (including key assumptions, inputs and estimates), (iii) finalizing the valuation of certain in-place contracts or contractual relationships (including but not limited to leases), (iv) finalizing our review of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed, (v) finalizing our estimate of the impact of acquisition accounting on deferred income taxes or liabilities. As the initial acquisition accounting is based on our preliminary assessments, actual values may differ (possibly materially) when final information becomes available that differs from our current estimates. We will continue to evaluate these items, until they are satisfactorily resolved and adjust our acquisition accounting accordingly, within the allowable measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition), as defined by ASC 805.

Goodwill includes expected synergies and other benefits the Company believes will result from the acquisition. The developed technology has been capitalized at fair value as an intangible asset with an estimated life of 15 years. The developed technology was determined using the income approach. This approach determines fair value based on cash flow projections which are discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate of return, using nonrecurring Level 3 inputs. The discount rate used was 22.0%.

The merger constituted a fundamental transaction under the Exchange Warrants and, as a result thereof, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Warrants, the investors were entitled to a cash payment equal to the Black Scholes value of the Exchange Warrants, calculated in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Warrants (the “Black Scholes Payment”).

Table of Contents

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement and, in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, in lieu of the Black Scholes Payment, the Company and the Investors agreed to exchange all of the Exchange Warrants for (a) a total of 504,861 shares of common stock, which was calculated by dividing the Black Scholes Payment by $4.038, which was equal to 95% of the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on July 16, 2021 and (b) new warrants to purchase up to a total of 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.038 with a term of five years.

In consideration for the immediate exercise of the existing warrants for cash, the exercising holders received new unregistered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 5.9 million shares (equal to 75% of the shares of common stock issued in connection with the exercise) of the Company’s common stock (the “New Warrants”) in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The investors paid a cash purchase price for the New Warrants equal to $0.09375 per share of common stock underlying the New Warrants. In connection with the exercise, the Company also agreed to reduce the exercise price of certain of the existing warrants to $6.00, which is equal to the most recent closing price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market prior to the execution of the warrant exercise agreement. For further details on the warrants see Note 9 below.

The gross proceeds to the Company from the Exercise and the sale of the New Warrants was approximately $45.5 million, prior to deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses. The Company used approximately $10.8 million to pay off the credit agreement, including $10.5 million of debt and $0.3 million of accrued interest under its secured credit agreement dated March 25, 2020, as amended, see Note 5 above for further details.

The Company conducts operations worldwide and has sales in the following regions: United States, Australia, Europe and Rest of World. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company primarily only sold the LAP-BAND product line. The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by geography:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
United States	$	2,745	$	2,594	$	7,897	$	6,006
Australia		278		307		849		725
Europe		653		637		1,622		1,273
Rest of world		32		64		90		88
Total revenue	$	3,708	$	3,602	$	10,458	$	8,092

*The next largest individual country outside the United States was the United Kingdom for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, which was 10.1% and 9.6%, respectively, of total revenues, and Australia for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, which was 8.1% and 9.0%, respectively, of total revenues.

Operating Segments

The Company conducts operations worldwide and is managed in the following geographical regions: United States, Australia, Europe and the Rest of World (primarily in the Middle East). All regions sell the LAP-BAND product line, which consisted of nearly all our revenue and gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. During the second half of 2020 the Company launched reshapecare, which had minimal revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and no revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company anticipates generating more reshapecare revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 and in to 2022. There was no revenue or gross profit recorded for the ReShape Vest or Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 as these two products are still in the development stage. There was also no revenue recorded for the recently acquired Obalon line.

(11) Income Taxes

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, a $30 thousand tax benefit and $23 thousand tax expense, respectively was recorded, primarily due to projected income in Australia and Netherlands. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, a $39 thousand and $108 thousand, respectively, tax benefit was recorded, primarily due to adjusted pre-tax income in Australia. The income tax provisions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, were calculated using the discrete year-to-date method. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the existence of valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets and current liabilities resulting from the estimated state income tax liabilities and foreign tax liability.

Table of Contents

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on the level of historical losses, projections of losses in future periods and potential limitations pursuant to changes in ownership under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, the Company provided a valuation allowance at both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Additionally, as stated above, upon completion of the business combination on June 16, 2021 with Obalon, the transaction was treated as a “reverse acquisition” for financial accounting purposes. Due to the fact that more than 50% of the former ReShape shareholders retained ownership in the newly consolidated group, it is intended to be treated as a reverse acquisition for tax purposes as well.

(12) Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and RSUs issued under the ReShape Lifesciences Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

Sales and marketing	$	1,085	$	—	$	1,085	$	—
General and administrative		8,404		255		8,141		1,029
Research and development		1,231		—		1,231		—
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	10,720	$	255	$	10,457	$	1,029

As part of the merger agreement with Obalon, all of the outstanding, vested and unvested stock option awards granted by ReShape were forfeited and cancelled. As a result, the Company reversed the previously recognized expense for the unvested awards at the time the merger was completed.

Table of Contents

Stock option awards outstanding under the Company’s incentive plans have been granted at exercise prices that are equal to the market value of its common stock on the date of grant. Such options generally vest over a period of four years and expire at ten years after the grant date. The Company recognized compensation expense ratably over the vesting period. The Company uses a Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted, which requires the input of both subjective and objective assumptions as follows:

Expected Term – The estimate of expected term is based on the historical exercise behavior of grantees, as well as the contractual life of the options granted.

Expected Volatility – The expected volatility factor is based on the volatility of the Company’s common stock for a period equal to the term of the stock options.

Risk-free Interest Rate – The risk-free interest rate is determined using the implied yield for a traded zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with the a term equal to the expected term of the stock options.

Expected Dividend Yield – The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s historical practice of paying dividends on its common stock.

The Company’s weighted average assumptions used to estimate fair value of stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were as follows:


Risk-free interest rate		1.06%
Expected term (in years)		10
Expected dividend yield		0%
Expected volatility		157.10%

Restricted Stock Units

On July 22, 2021, the Company issued two RSU awards each to certain members of management and the Board of Directors totaling 3,610,572 RSU awards. The awards given to the members of management consist of one award which vests at 25% on the first anniversary date of the employee retroactively and the remaining 75% of the option shares vests in as nearly equal amounts as possible on the last day of each of the next 36 months thereafter. The other award vests in as nearly equal amounts as possible on the last day of each of the next 36 months after the date of grant. Both awards given to the Board of Directors vest 50% on the date granted and the remaining 50% on January 1, 2022.

A summary of the Company’s unvested RSUs award activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, were as follows:


		Weighted
		Average
		Grant Date
	Shares	Fair Value
Unvested RSUs at December 31, 2020	—	$	—
Granted	3,610,572		4.36
Vested ⁽¹⁾	(1,803,558)		4.36
Cancelled/Forfeited	—		—
Non-vested RSUs at September 30, 2021	1,807,014		4.36

(1)

At September 30, 2021, there were 47,848 shares of common stock related to RSU awards that had vested and the shares were not distributed to the participants until October of 2021. The Company recorded a liability to account for these shares and reversed the liability once the shares were issued to the participants.

The fair value of each RSU is the closing stock price on the NASDAQ of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Upon vesting, a portion of the RSU award may be withheld to satisfy the statutory income tax withholding obligation. The remaining RSUs will be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock after the vesting period. The unrecognized compensation cost related to the RSUs at September 30, 2021 was $6.7 million and expected to be recognized over a period of 1.5 years.

Non-GAAP Disclosures

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with GAAP, we provide certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, these non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of the Company’s ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents.

Management believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments, and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in the Form 10-Q have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Revenue totaled $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2020. The primary reason for the increase in revenue of $0.1 million, or 2.9%, is due to a $0.2 million increase in sales for the United States, offset by a $0.1 million decrease internationally. The increase domestically is primarily due to an improved and expanded sales force, coupled with increased sales and marketing efforts. There has also been a rise in obesity awareness due to the complications associated with COVID-19 from obesity. Internationally, in certain regions, there continues to be a slowdown in procedures primarily due to the Delta variant of COVID-19.

Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021, was 57.6% compared to 63.3% for the same period in 2020. The decrease in gross profit margin is primarily due to increased department expenses, which includes increased consulting fees, payroll related expenses, and depreciation, along with increased freight costs. In addition, during the three months ended September 31, 2021, the Company incurred cost of sales related to Obalon, as the Company is preparing to reintroduce the Obalon Balloon into the market at some point in the near future.

Operating Expenses: The following table summarizes our unaudited operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, as well as the percentage of total revenue and the amount of change and percentage of change (dollars in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,								Amount		Percentage
	2021				2020				Change		Change
Sales and marketing	$	3,496	94.3	%	$	1,160	32.2	%	$	2,336	201.4	%
General and administrative		12,052	325.0	%		2,434	67.6	%		9,618	395.2	%
Research and development		1,571	42.4	%		859	23.8	%		712	82.9	%
Total operating expenses	$	17,119	461.7	%	$	4,453	123.6	%	$	12,666	284.4	%

Total operating expenses increased by $12.7 million, primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $10.7 million. After the Obalon merger, and subsequent listing on NASDAQ, the Company issued either restricted stock units or stock options to the entire company, its first grant since 2017. The vesting schedules of these grants were retroactive to hire dates, so there was a catch-up expense of $8.9 million. Due to this, the Company expects stock-based compensation expense to normalize going forward. In addition, the Company has begun to focus on increasing brand recognition through improving our marketing strategies, including television and print advertisements, and social media presence which has increased our payroll related costs as we have expanded our workforce, and increased consulting and other professional fees.

Sales and Marketing Expense. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021, increased by $2.3 million, or 201.4%, to $3.5 million, compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2020. The increase is due to an increase of $1.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, as during the third quarter the company issued both RSUs and stock options containing a look back provision to begin vesting at the one-year anniversary of the date of employment, resulting in an expense of $0.9 million at the time the awards were granted. In addition, the Company began to ramp up its marketing efforts, with an increase in advertising and marketing expenses of $0.8 million, an increase in payroll related expenses of $0.2 million, from an expanded and improved sales force, and higher commissions from increased sales. There was also an increase of $0.1 million in both software costs and travel and entertainment expenses. With funds from the recent equity raise, the Company expects to devote more resources toward sales and marketing, particularly through our national direct to consumer campaign, and hence increase sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue through the remainder of the year.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021, increased by $9.6 million, or 395.2%, to $12.0 million, compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $8.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, as during the third quarter the company issued both RSUs and stock options containing a look back provision to begin vesting at the one-year anniversary of the date of employment, resulting in an expense of $6.8 million at the time the

awards were granted. In addition, there was an increase in audit, consulting, legal and other professional services of $0.2 million, an increase in payroll related expenses of $0.8 million, primarily related to increased bonus expenses of $0.6 million, an increase in rent and facility expenses of $0.2 million from an entire quarter of the Obalon facility, and an increase in insurance expenses of $0.1 million.

Research and Development Expense. Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021, increased by $0.7 million, or 82.9%, to $1.6 million, compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $1.2 million in stock-based compensation expense, as during the third quarter the company issued both RSUs and stock options containing a look back provision to begin vesting at the one-year anniversary of the date of employment, resulting in an expense of $1.2 million at the time the awards were granted. This was offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in consulting and clinical trial expenses as a result of the slowdown in clinical trials for the ReShape Vest due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net Interest Expense. Net interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021, decreased by $0.7 million to $33 thousand compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2020. The reason for the decrease is due to the Company paying off their credit agreement in the second quarter of 2021 and the forgiveness of the PPP loan including accrued interest during the first quarter of this year.

Warrant Expense. Warrant expense was $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The warrant expense relates the issuance of warrants and common stock in connection with the exchange agreement entered into with an investor that held Obalon warrants and exercised the fundamental transaction provision of their warrants.

Gain on Foreign Currency. Gain on foreign currency for both the three months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, was $0.1 million. Foreign currency gains relate to the foreign currency fluctuations in our global trade and intercompany receivable and payable balances.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit). Income tax benefit was $30 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a benefit of $39 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020

Revenue: The following table summarizes our unaudited revenue by geographic location based on the location of customers for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, as well as the percentage of each location to total revenue and the amount of change and percentage of change (dollars in thousands):


	Nine Months Ended September 30,								Amount		Percentage
	2021				2020				Change		Change
United States	$	7,897	75.5	%	$	6,006	74.2	%	$	1,891	31.5	%
Australia		849	8.1	%		725	9.0	%		124	17.1	%
Europe		1,622	15.5	%		1,273	15.7	%		349	27.4	%
Rest of world		90	0.9	%		88	1.1	%		2	2.3	%
Total revenue	$	10,458	100.0	%	$	8,092	100.0	%	$	2,366	29.2	%

Revenue totaled $10.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $8.1 million for the same period in 2020. The primary reason for the increase in revenue of $2.4 million, or 29.2%, is due to a $1.9 million increase in sales for the United States, and a $0.5 million increase internationally. The increase both domestically and internationally, is primarily due to lessened COVID 19 pandemic restrictions for elective surgeries in 2021 as compared to 2020. There has also been a rise in obesity awareness due to the complications associated with COVID-19 for obesity, and the Company has increased its overall sales and marketing efforts, which has helped increase sales.

Gross profit	$	6,572	62.8	%	$	4,621	57.1	%	$	1,951	42.2	%

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $6.6 million compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 2020, an increase of $2.0 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was 62.8%, compared to 57.1% for the same period in 2020. The increase in gross profit margin is primarily due to increased volume, as revenue increased 29.2%, reduced period expenses, and improved product mix with higher domestic sales as a percentage of revenue, which have a higher gross profit margin than international sales.

Operating Expenses: The following table summarizes our unaudited operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, as well as the percentage of total revenue and the amount of change and percentage of change (dollars in thousands):


	Nine Months Ended September 30,								Amount		Percentage
	2021				2020				Change		Change

Total operating expenses	$	27,516	263.2	%	$	13,874	171.5	%	$	13,642	98.3	%

Total operating expenses increased by $13.6 million, primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $10.5 million. After the Obalon merger, and subsequent listing on NASDAQ, the Company issued either restricted stock units or stock options to the entire company, its first grant since 2017. The vesting schedules for these grants were retroactive to hire dates, so there was a catch-up expense of $8.9 million. Due to this, the Company expects for stock-based compensation expense to normalize going forward. In addition, the Company has begun focusing on increasing brand recognition through improving our marketing strategies, including television and print advertisements, and social media presence which has increased our payroll related costs as we have expanded our workforce, and increased consulting and other professional fees to aid with these efforts.

Sales and Marketing Expense. Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased by $2.7 million, or 79.5%, to $6.2 million, compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2020. The increase is due to an increase of $1.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, as during the third quarter the company issued both RSUs and stock options containing a look back provision to begin vesting at the one-year anniversary of the date of employment, resulting in an expense of $0.9 million at the time the awards were granted. The Company has begun to ramp up its marketing efforts with an increase in advertising and marketing expenses of $1.3 million. In addition, commissions increased $0.2 million from higher revenue and software costs increased by $0.1 million, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in consulting fees. With funds from the recent equity raise, the Company expects to devote more resources toward sales and marketing, particularly through our national direct to consumer campaign, and hence increase sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue through the remainder of the year.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, increased by $11.3 million, or 144.4%, to $19.1 million, compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $7.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, as during the third quarter the Company issued both RSUs and stock options containing a look back provision to begin vesting at the one-year anniversary of the date of employment, resulting in an expense of $6.8 million at the time the awards were granted. In addition, the Company had increases in audit, consulting, legal and other professional services of $3.1 million, of which $2.3 million is directly related to the merger with Obalon, an increase in legal fees of $0.3

million, an increase in other payroll related expenses of $0.8 million due to a $0.6 million increase in bonus fees, and an increase of $0.1 million in rent and facilities due to the merger with Obalon. This is offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in bad debt expenses.

Research and Development Expense. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, decreased by $0.4 million, or 14.3%, to $2.2 million, compared to $2.6 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease is primarily due to a $1.5 million reduction in consulting, and clinical trial expenses as a result of a slowdown in clinical trials for the ReShape Vest due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This was offset by an increase of $1.2 million in stock-based compensation expense, as during the third quarter the company issued both RSUs and stock options containing a look back provision to begin vesting at the one-year anniversary of the date of employment, resulting in an expense of $1.2 million at the time the awards were granted.

Net Interest Expense. Net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, decreased by $0.8 million to $0.8 million compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2020. The reason for the decrease is due to the Company paying off the credit agreement during the second quarter of 2021 and the forgiveness of the PPP loan including accrued interest during the first quarter of this year.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt, Net. Loss on extinguishment of debt, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $2.1 million, which consisted of losses of $3.0 million related to the fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the January 19, 2021, credit agreement amendments and $0.1 million related to the early payment of the debt. These losses were offset by a $1.0 million gain on the full extinguishment of our PPP loan, as we received official confirmation of forgiveness on March 1, 2021.

Warrant Expense. Warrant expense was $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The warrant expense relates the issuance of warrants and common stock in connection with the exchange agreement entered with an investor that held Obalon warrants and exercised the fundamental transaction provision of their warrants.

Gain on Foreign Currency. Gain on foreign currency for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $0.2 million compared to a gain of $0.1 million for the same period in 2020. Foreign currency gains and losses relate to the foreign currency fluctuations in our global trade and intercompany receivable and payable balances.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit). Income tax expense was $23 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a benefit of $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations to date principally through the sale of equity securities and debt financings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we received proceeds of $45.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from exercises of warrants by institutional investors, and $1.0 million and $4.5 million, respectively, from the credit agreement with an institutional investor. As of September 30, 2021, we had $29.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, which includes $5.2 million of cash received in connection with the acquisition of Obalon and $50 thousand of restricted cash. During March of 2021, the Company received confirmation from the SBA that the PPP Loan was forgiven in full including all interest incurred and in June of 2021, the credit agreement was paid in full.

In January 2021, we entered into an agreement to merge with Obalon resulting in the removal of the going concern opinion. During June of 2021, the Company completed the merger with Obalon and obtained approval for the combined Company’s common stock to be traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities from operations was $12.0 million and $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was primarily the result of our net loss of $26.5 million, partially offset by non-cash adjustments for stock-based compensation expense of $10.5 million, amortization of intangible assets of $1.3 million, net loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.1 million, warrant expense of $2.8 million and amortization of debt discount of $0.5 million. We show a negative cash impact to accounts receivable of $0.9 million, as we had an increase in sales late in the third quarter, a negative impact due to increase prepaids of $0.4 million and a cash outflow for accounts payable and accruals of $1.8 million as the Company paid its vendors with the funds received in the equity raise during June of 2021. These decreases were partially offset by a change in other assets of $0.4 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was primarily the result of our net loss of $13.1 million, partially offset by non-cash adjustments for amortization of intangible assets of $1.2 million, noncash interest expense of $0.2 million, loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.4 million, stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million, bad debt expense of $0.2 million, provision for inventory excess and obsolescence of $0.2 million and amortization of debt discount and deferred debt issuance cost of $1.4 million. In addition, the Company has focused on collection of accounts receivable, which resulted in an increase to cash of $1.0 million, which was offset by an increase in change of inventory of $0.9 million primarily due to expected inventory buildup related to our impending manufacturing transfer, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1.3 million.

Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $4.9 million, which was comprised of $5.2 million of cash received in connection with the merger with Obalon, offset by capital expenditures of $0.3 million, primarily related to the completion of moving manufacturing from Costa Rica to the United States.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $0.2 million, comprised of capital expenditures related to the process of moving manufacturing from Costa Rica to the United States.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $33.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due to proceeds of $45.6 million received from exercises of warrants from institutional investors, $1.0 million received from the credit agreement with an institutional investor, and $0.4 million in proceeds received from stock option exercises, offset by the early payment of $10.5 million to pay off the credit agreement and $3.2 million for financing costs.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, consisted of proceeds received from the credit agreement with an institutional investor of $4.5 million, $1.0 million received under the CARES Act in the form of a PPP Loan and $0.6 million in cash received from the exercise of warrants, offset by approximately $0.1 million of debt issuance costs.

Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements

Our anticipated operations include plans to (i) integrate the sales and operations of the Company with the LAP-BAND product line in order to expand sales domestically and internationally as well as to obtain cost savings synergies, (ii) introduce to the market place reshapecare and ReShape Marketplace as an extension of reshapecare, (iii) ramp up marketing efforts to increase brand recognition, create customer awareness and increase in patient demand, (iv) continue clinical trials of the ReShape Vest, (v) continue development of the Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation, (vi) seek opportunities to leverage our intellectual property portfolio and custom development services to provide third-party sales and licensing opportunities, and (vii) explore and capitalize on synergistic opportunities to expand our portfolio and offer future minimally invasive treatments and therapies in the obesity continuum of care, including the recently acquired Obalon balloon. The Company believes that it has the flexibility to manage the growth of its expenditures and operations depending on the amount of available cash flows, which could include reducing expenditures for marketing, clinical and product development activities.

Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations, the costs to complete development of products and the cost to commercialize our products are forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary materially and negatively as a result of a number of factors, including the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of medical devices, such as our ReShape Vest and Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation, we are unable to estimate the exact amounts of capital outlays and operating expenditures necessary to complete the development of the ReShape Vest and Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation or other additional products and successfully deliver a commercial product to the market. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

●

the cost and timing of establishing sales, marketing and distribution capabilities;

●

the cost of establishing clinical and commercial supplies of our ReShape Vest and Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation, and any products that we may develop;

●

the rate of market acceptance of our ReShape Vest and Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation and any other product candidates;

●

the cost of filing and prosecuting patent applications and defending and enforcing our patent and other intellectual property rights;

●

the cost of defending, in litigation or otherwise, any claims that we infringe third-party patent or other intellectual property rights;

●

the effect of competing products and market developments;

●

the cost of explanting clinical devices;

●

the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing or other arrangements that we may establish;

●

any revenue generated by sales of our Lap-Band, reshapecare, ReShape Vest, Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation or future products;

●

the scope, rate of progress, results and cost of our clinical trials and other research and development activities;

●

the cost and timing of obtaining any further required regulatory approvals; and

Table of Contents

●

the extent to which we invest in products and technologies, although we currently have no commitments or agreements relating to any of these types of transactions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” as those controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on their evaluation as of September 30, 2021, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed at a reasonable level and effective as of the end of the period covered in the report in providing reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not currently a party to any material litigation and the Company is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation against it that reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition. The medical device industry in which the Company operates is characterized by frequent claims and litigation, including claims regarding patent and other intellectual property rights as well as improper hiring practices. As a result, the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings from time to time.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making your decision to invest in shares of our common stock, you should carefully consider the risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Obalon Therapeutics, Inc. (our predecessor company) on March 12, 2021, and by ReShape Lifesciences Inc. (now known as ReShape Weightloss Inc.) on March 11, 2021, together with the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The risks and uncertainties described herein are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that affect us. If any of those risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects could be materially and adversely affected. The market price of our common stock would likely decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
