CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include those that express plans, anticipation, intent, contingency, goals, targets or future development and/or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and projections about future events and they are subject to risks and uncertainties known and unknown that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “should,” “continue,” “could” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Accordingly, these statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this prospectus.

You should read this quarterly report and the documents that we reference herein and therein and have filed as exhibits to this report, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. You should assume that the information appearing in this quarterly report is accurate as of the date of this report only. Because the risk factors referred to above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, along with others, are described above under the heading “Risk Factors” in our registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2014. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We qualify all of the information presented in this quarterly report, and particularly our forward-looking statements, by these cautionary statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our condensed unaudited financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, and the information under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on February 18, 2014 (“Form S-1”). This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Industry Data” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Form S-1.

Overview

We are an emerging medical risk-assessment company. Our mission is to develop, manufacture and market patented products that identify the risk profile of medical patients to allow healthcare providers to capture full reimbursement potential for their services. Our first patented and U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, cleared product, is FloChec®. FloChec® is used in the office setting to allow providers to measure arterial blood flow in the extremities and is a useful tool for internists and primary care physicians for whom it was previously impractical to conduct blood flow measurements. We received FDA 510(k) clearance for FloChec® in February 2010, began Beta testing in the third quarter of 2010, and began commercially leasing FloChec® in January 2011. We closed the initial public offering of our common stock on February 26, 2014 and our common stock is now listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker symbol “SMLR.”

In the three months ended June 30, 2014 we had total revenue of $846,000 and a net loss of $1,032,000 compared to total revenue of $475,000 and a net loss of $613,000 in the same period in 2013.

In the six months ended June 30, 2014 we had total revenue of $1,683,000 and a net loss of $1,849,000 compared to total revenue of $904,000 and a net loss of $1,184,000 in the same period in 2013.

Emerging Growth Company Elections

The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company, such as our company, can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of these accounting standards until they would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to other public companies that comply with public company effective dates. In the future, we may elect to opt out of the extended period for adopting new accounting standards. If we do so, we would need to disclose such decision and it would be irrevocable.

Factors Affecting Future Results

We have not identified any factors that have a recurring effect that are necessary to understand period to period comparisons as appropriate, nor any one-time events that have an effect on the financials.

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013

Revenue

We had revenue of $846,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $371,000, or 78%, compared to $475,000 in the same period in 2013. We record rental revenue monthly for each unit installed with a customer. The average amount of revenue per unit per month is affected by the mix of units rented by direct customers or distributors, by price changes and by discounts. The primary reasons for the increase in revenue were that the number of monthly recordings of revenue per unit grew 75% and the average amount of revenue per unit per month grew 2% compared to the same period in 2013. We believe that growth in the number of monthly recordings of revenue per unit is predominately due to our sales and marketing efforts, which added new customers to an established customer base.

Operating expenses

We had total operating expenses of $1,855,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $802,000, or 76%, compared to $1,053,000 in the same period in 2013. The primary reasons for the increase were increased cost of revenue, sales and marketing expense, engineering and product development expense, and general and administrative expense. The changes in the various components of our operating expenses are described below.

Table of Contents

Cost of revenue

We had cost of revenue of $172,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $115,000, or 202%, from $57,000 for the same period in 2013. The primary reason for the increase was $78,000 of additional cost in the second quarter of 2014 associated with employees who oversee manufacturing operations, which persons were not employed in the prior year period. A portion of the increase is also due to the fact that aggregate depreciation of our FloChec® systems for lease increased $22,000, or 96%, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 as there was a 75% increase in the number of monthly depreciation charges corresponding to the 75% increase in number of monthly rental units and an increase in average depreciation per unit per month of 14%. Cost of units that were retired were $16,000 higher in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.

Engineering and product development expense

We had engineering and product development expense of $416,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $320,000, or 333%, compared to $96,000 in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to increased consulting costs for new product development of $332,000, partially offset by lower costs of $18,000 for other consulting services.

Sales and marketing expense

We had sales and marketing expense of $728,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $206,000, or 39%, compared to $522,000 in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to higher salary expense of $242,000 associated with having an expanded sales team as compared to the prior period, as well as higher travel expenses of $30,000, partially offset by $46,000 in lower trade show and other expenses, and $6,000 lower sales commissions associated with a restructured commission plan as compared to the same period in 2013. During the quarter, we primarily focused sales activity on insurance plans with Medicare Advantage members. Accordingly, we incurred costs associated with establishing these relationships prior to generating any product revenue.

General and administrative expense

We had general and administrative expense of $539,000 for the three months ended June 30 2014, an increase of $161,000, or 43%, compared to $378,000 in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to added costs associated with being a publicly traded company of $91,000, higher salaries and fees for employees and consultants of $64,000, higher audit and tax preparation of $40,000, an increase in uncollectible accounts of $22,000, higher insurance premiums of $20,000, higher travel expenses of $8,000, which increases were partially offset by lower stock compensation expense of $101,000.

Net loss

For the foregoing reasons, we had a net loss of $1,032,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $419,000, or 68%, compared to a net loss of $613,000 for the same period in 2013.

Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

Revenue

We had revenue of $1,683,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $779,000, or 86%, compared to $904,000 in the same period in 2013. We record rental revenue monthly for each unit installed with a customer. The average amount of revenue per unit per month is affected by the mix of units rented by direct customers or distributors, by price changes and by discounts. The primary reasons for the increase in revenue were that the number of monthly recordings of revenue per unit grew 82% and the average amount of revenue per unit per month grew 2% compared to the same period in 2013. We believe that growth in the number of monthly recordings of revenue per unit is predominately due to our sales and marketing efforts, which add new customers to an established customer base.

Operating expenses

We had total operating expenses of $3,481,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $1,457,000, or 72%, compared to $2,024,000 in the same period in 2013. The primary reasons for the increase were increased cost of revenue, sales and marketing expense, engineering and product development expense, and general and administrative expense. The changes in the various components of our operating expenses are described below.

Cost of revenue

We had cost of revenue of $326,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $183,000, or 128%, from $143,000 for the same period in 2013. The primary reason for the increase was $139,000 of additional cost in the first half of 2014 associated with employees who oversee manufacturing operations, which persons were not employed in the prior year period. A portion of the increase is also due to the fact that aggregate depreciation of our FloChec® systems for lease increased $40,000, or 77%, in the first half of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 as there was an 82% increase in the number of monthly depreciation charges corresponding to the 82% increase in number of monthly rental units. However, these increases were partially offset by a decrease in average depreciation per unit per month of 2%. Cost of units that were retired were $7,000 higher in the first half of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.

Engineering and product development expense

We had engineering and product development expense of $645,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $451,000, or 232%, compared to $194,000 in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to increased consulting costs for new product development of $481,000, partially offset by lower costs of $38,000 for other consulting services.

Sales and marketing expense

We had sales and marketing expense of $1,473,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $457,000, or 45%, compared to $1,016,000 in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to higher salary expense of $448,000 associated with having an expanded sales team as compared to the prior period, and higher travel expenses of $61,000 partially offset by $44,000 in lower trade show and other expenses. A portion of the increase was also due to $16,000 higher sales commissions associated with higher rental revenue as compared to the same period in 2013. During the quarter, we primarily focused sales activity on insurance plans with Medicare Advantage members. Accordingly, we incurred costs associated with establishing these relationships prior to generating any product revenue.

General and administrative expense

We had general and administrative expense of $1,037,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $366,000, or 55%, compared to $671,000 in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to added costs associated with being a publicly traded company of $140,000, higher salaries and fees for employees and consultants of $98,000, higher audit and tax preparation expenses of $92,000, an increase in uncollectible accounts of $54,000, higher insurance premiums of $39,000, higher patent and legal expenses of $25,000, higher travel expenses of $16,000, as well as $9,000 due to the addition of the medical device excise tax, which increases were partially offset by lower stock compensation expense of $117,000.

Net loss

For the foregoing reasons, we had a net loss of $1,849,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $665,000, or 56%, compared to a net loss of $1,184,000 for the same period in 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash of $6,554,000 at June 30, 2014 compared to $734,000 at December 31, 2013, and total current liabilities of $1,637,000 at June 30, 2014 compared to $1,856,000 at December 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2014 we had working capital of approximately $5,213,000. On February 26, 2014, we closed the initial public offering of our common stock, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate 1,430,000 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $7.00 per share, and received gross proceeds of approximately $10,010,000 before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses.

Our principal sources of cash have included the issuance of equity, most recently our February 2014 initial public offering of common stock, and to a lesser extent, borrowings under loan agreements. We expect that as our revenues grow, our operating expenses will continue to grow and, as a result, we will need to generate significant additional net revenues to achieve profitability. We believe that cash on hand plus cash from our operating activities will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.

Although we do not have any current capital commitments, we expect that we will increase our expenditures to continue our efforts to grow our business and commercialize FloChec^®. Accordingly, we currently expect to make additional expenditures in both sales and marketing, as well as general and administrative to address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, and invest in our corporate infrastructure. We also expect to invest in our research and development efforts. However, we do not have any definitive plans as to the exact amounts or particular uses at this time, and the exact amounts and timing of any expenditure may vary significantly from our current intentions.

Operating activities

We used $1,895,000 of net cash in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Non-cash adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities plus changes in operating assets and liabilities used $45,000 of cash in the six months ended June 30, 2014. These non-cash adjustments primarily reflect depreciation of $92,000, allowance for doubtful accounts of $89,000, loss on disposal of assets for lease of $55,000 and deferred financing costs of $44,000. Cash used in operating activities was primarily due to deferred revenue of $260,000, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $122,000 and trade accounts payable of $95,000, partially offset by net cash provided from accrued expenses of $139,000 and trade accounts receivable of $13,000.

For the same period in 2013, we used $817,000 of cash in operating activities. Non-cash adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash provided by operating activities plus changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $367,000 of cash in the six months ended June 30, 2013. These non-cash adjustments primarily reflect stock-based compensation expense of $141,000, depreciation of $49,000, deferred financing costs of $44,000, allowance for doubtful accounts of $34,000 and loss on disposal of assets for lease of $34,000. Cash used in operating activities was primarily due to trade accounts payable of $81,000, trade accounts receivable of $50,000 and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $13,000, offset by net cash provided from accrued expenses of $207,000 and deferred revenue of $2,000.

Investing activities

We used $284,000 of net cash in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily for purchases of our FloChec® systems for lease. We used $40,000 of net cash in investing activities for the same period in 2013, primarily for purchases of our FloChec® systems for lease.

Financing activities

We generated $7,998,000 of net cash from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily from proceeds from sales of shares of our common stock in our February 2014 initial public offering, which proceeds were partially offset by offering costs and payment of the current portion of our long-term liabilities. We generated $303,000 of net cash in financing activities in the same period in 2013, primarily due to proceeds from advances from investors, partially offset by offering costs, payments on our outstanding indebtedness and equipment leases.

Description of Indebtedness

We currently have no material outstanding indebtedness. See Note 5 to our unaudited condensed financial statements for a description of our outstanding indebtedness.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of each of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Commitments and Contingencies

As of each of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, other than employment/consulting agreements with key executive officers, we had no material commitments other than the liabilities reflected in our financial statements.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, at the reasonable assurance level, as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure because of the existence of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below under “—Internal Control Over Financing Reporting.”

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We are not required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act under applicable rules for newly public companies and are therefore not required to make an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, our management has not yet performed an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting. Further, our independent registered public accounting firm is not yet required to, nor have they been engaged to express, nor have they expressed, an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. However, in connection with the audits of our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, our management and independent registered public accounting firm identified certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses related to our lack of a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge and experience in the application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, commensurate with our financial reporting requirements and the fact that policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision, and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions were either not designed and in place or not operating effectively. As a result, numerous audit adjustments to our financial statements were identified during the course of the audit. Had we and our independent registered public accounting firm performed an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, additional control deficiencies may have been identified by management or our independent registered public accounting firm, and those control deficiencies could have also represented one or more material weaknesses.

In an effort to remediate these material weaknesses, we increased the number of our finance and accounting personnel, and recently hired a Chief Financial Officer with public company experience. We have also adopted and implemented policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision, and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions. We will continue assessing our procedures to improve our internal control over financial reporting so that we are in a position to perform the necessary evaluation, when required.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than the changes described above to remediate our material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
