EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023, (this “Form 10-K”), of Pro-Dex, Inc. (“Company,” “Pro-Dex,” “we,” “our,”
“us”) includes amended and restated consolidated financial statements and related financial information as of and for the years ended June 30, 2022 and
2021. This Form 10-K also includes restated quarterly information for the quarters ended March 31, 2023, December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, March
31, 2022, December 31, 2021, September 30, 2021, March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020, and September 30, 2020. This information is disclosed in Note 2
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Background of the Restatement
As described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 28, 2023,
in connection with preparing the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the Company determined its calculation of the
estimated fair value of a warrant (the “Monogram Warrant”), which the Company was granted on December 20, 2018, representing the Company’s right to
purchase up to 5% of the outstanding stock of Monogram Orthopaedics Inc. calculated on a fully diluted basis, was materially understated for fiscal years
ended June 30, 2020, 2021 and 2022 and all interim periods commencing with the quarter ended September 30, 2020 through the quarter ended March
31, 2023.
On September 27, 2023, management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Audit Committee”), after
consultation with Moss Adams, LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, determined that the Company’s previously issued
financial statements referenced above should be restated to reflect the impact of the error, and accordingly, should no longer be relied upon.
As a result of the information described above, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective
at a reasonable assurance level and the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the end of each of the periods covered by
the restatement. The Company has identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to its application of ASC 815,
Derivatives and Hedging related to the Monogram Warrant. Please see Item 9A (Controls and Procedures) in this Form 10-K for a description of these
matters, and of certain remediation measures that we plan to take to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting.
Reliance on Prior Consolidated Financial Statements
We have not amended our previously filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K or Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods effected by the
restatement. The information that has been previously filed or otherwise reported for these periods is superseded by the information in this Form 10-K. As
such, we do not anticipate amending our previously filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K or our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for any prior periods.
Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements and related financial information contained in such previously filed reports should no longer be relied
upon.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
PART I
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are not based on
historical facts but instead reflect the Company’s expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events. These statements generally can
be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “intent,” “belief,”
“estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “plan,” “likely,” “will,” “should” or similar words or phrases. These statements are not guarantees of performance and are
inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict and could cause actual results, performance, or
achievements to differ materially from those expressed or indicated by those statements. The Company cannot assure you that any of its expectations,
estimates or projections will be achieved.
Forward-looking statements included in this report are only made as of the date of this report and the Company disclaims any obligation to
publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
Numerous factors could cause the Company’s actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking
statements, including, without limitation: loss of a significant customer, entry of new and stronger competitors, capital availability, unexpected costs,
compliance with contractual obligations, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, failure to capitalize upon access to new customers, marketplace delisting,
the ramifications of industry consolidation of medical products manufacturers, dealers and distributors, managed health care, failure to mitigate supply
chain issues, market acceptance and support of new products, cancellation of existing contracts, customer “in house” production of products previously
designed by and/or acquired from the Company, invalidity or unenforceability of the Company’s patents and other intellectual property, maintaining
favorable supplier relationships, the Company’s ability to engage qualified human resources as needed, regulatory compliance, general economic
conditions, and other factors described under Item 1A (Risk Factors) of this report. This list of factors is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. All
forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty.
ITEM 1.
BUSINESS
Company Overview
Pro-Dex, Inc. (“Company,” “Pro-Dex,” “we,” “our,” “us”) specializes in the design, development, and manufacture of autoclavable, battery-
powered and electric, multi-function surgical drivers and shavers used primarily in the orthopedic, thoracic, and craniomaxillofacial (“CMF”) markets. We
have patented adaptive torque-limiting technology and proprietary sealing solutions which appeal to our customers, primarily medical device distributors.
We also manufacture and sell rotary air motors to a wide range of industries.
Our patented adaptive torque-limiting software has been very well received in the CMF and thoracic markets and we have continued investment in
this area with research and development focused on applying this technology to other surgical applications.
In November 2020, we purchased an approximate 25,000 square foot industrial building in Tustin, California (the “Franklin Property”). This
building is located approximately four miles from our Irvine, California headquarters and was acquired to provide us additional capacity for our expected
continued future growth. We substantially completed the build-out of the property during fiscal 2022 and concluded various verification and validation
activities during fiscal 2023. We moved our entire assembly and repairs operations to the new facility in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and we are now
fully operational in the new facility. We believe the new facility will create additional capacity for our expected continued growth over the next several
years.

Our medical device products utilize proprietary designs developed by us primarily under exclusive development and supply agreements and are
currently machined in our Irvine, California facility, and assembled in our Tustin, California facility, as are our rotary air motors. Our medical device
products are sold primarily to original equipment manufacturers and our air motors are sold primarily to a wide range of distributors and end users.
In fiscal 2023, our top three customers accounted for 92% of our sales compared to 88% in fiscal 2022. In fiscal 2023, we had one customer,
included in both medical device and repairs revenue above, that accounted for 67% of sales with our next largest customer accounting for 16% of sales.
This compares to fiscal 2022, when these same two customers accounted for 66% and 14%, respectively, of our total sales. In many cases, including our
largest customers, disclosure of customer names is prohibited by confidentiality agreements with such entities. We have no plans to discontinue the sales
relationships with our existing significant customers, nor does management have any knowledge that any existing significant customer intends to terminate
its relationship with us.
Our business today is almost entirely driven by sales of our medical devices. Many of our significant customers place purchase orders for specific
products that were developed under various development and/or supply agreements. Our customers may request that we design and manufacture a custom
surgical device or they may hire us as a contract manufacturer to manufacture a product of their own design. In either case, we have extensive experience
with autoclavable, battery-powered and electric, multi-function surgical drivers and shavers. We continue to focus a significant percentage of our time and
resources on providing outstanding products and service to our valued principal customers. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, our largest customer
executed an amendment to our existing supply agreement such that we will continue to supply their surgical handpieces to them through calendar 2025 and,
during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, they executed a product development agreement and related statement of work for our assistance with the next
generation of this handpiece. Additionally, we continue to invest in property and equipment as well as personnel to expand our capacity to achieve higher
sales volumes.
3
To that end, we purchased the Franklin Property in November 2020. This building is located approximately four miles from our Irvine, California
headquarters and was acquired to provide us additional capacity for our expected continued future growth. We began operations in the new facility during
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. While we believe that the efforts we completed to bring the facility operational will allow us ample capacity to increase
revenues significantly in future years, there can be no assurance that we will increase revenue.
Simultaneously, we are working to build top-line sales through active proposals of new medical device products with new and existing customers.
Our patented adaptive torque-limiting software has been very well received in the CMF and thoracic markets. Additionally, we have other significant
engineering projects under way described more fully below under “Results of Operations.”
The majority of the raw materials and components used to manufacture our products are purchased and are available from several sources,
including through our own in-house machining capabilities. Portescap, Fischer Connectors, and Tadiran Batteries are examples of key suppliers. We have
no exclusive arrangements with any of our suppliers, but in several instances only one supplier is used for certain high-value components. In most of such
instances, secondary suppliers have been identified, although it is likely that any transition to a new or different supplier would result in a delay in the
supply chain. We consider our relationships with our suppliers and manufacturers to be good, however, during fiscal 2022 and continuing into fiscal 2023,
many of our suppliers have increased lead times, experienced delays in shipments and raised prices or temporarily added surcharges. We do not intend to
terminate any such relationship at this time, nor does management have knowledge that any supplier or manufacturer intends to terminate its relationship
with us.
Our commitment to product design, manufacturing, and quality systems are supported by our compliance with several regulatory agency
requirements and standards. We hold a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Establishment Registration and a State of California Device
Manufacturing License (Department of Public Health Food and Drug Branch) with respect to our Irvine and Tustin, California facilities. In addition, both
facilities produce products that are certified to ISO 13485:2016, Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC – Annex II.
At June 30, 2023, we had a backlog of $41.6 million compared with a backlog of $16.5 million at June 30, 2022. Our backlog represents firm
purchase orders received and acknowledged from our customers and does not include all revenue expected to be generated from existing customer
contracts. Of our backlog at June 30, 2023, $31.4 million, as well as certain purchase orders received subsequent to June 30, 2023, are expected to be
delivered during fiscal 2024 and the balance of $10.2 million is expected to be delivered in fiscal 2025. We have experienced, and may continue to
experience, variability in our new order bookings due to, among other reasons, the launch of new products, the timing of customer orders based on end-
user demand, and customer inventory levels. We do not typically experience seasonal fluctuations in our shipments and revenues.
Segments
We have only one operating segment as our business is currently operated.
Competition
The markets for products in the industries served by our customers are intensely competitive, and we face significant competition from a number
of different sources. Several of our competitors have significantly greater name recognition, as well as substantially greater financial, technical, product
development, and marketing resources, than us.
We compete in all of our markets with other major medical device companies. As a provider of outsourced services, we also compete with our
customers’ own internal development and manufacturing groups. Competitive pressures and other factors, such as new product or new technology
introductions by us, our customers’ internal development and manufacturing departments, or our competitors, may result in price or market share erosion
that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Also, there can be no assurance that our products
and services will achieve broad market acceptance or will successfully compete with other products targeting the same customers.
4
Research and Development
We conduct research and development activities to both maintain and improve our market position. Our research and development efforts involve
the design and manufacture of products that perform specific applications for our existing and prospective customers. Our research and development
activities are focused on:
·
·
·
·
expanding our knowledge base in the medical device industry to solidify our products with current customers and expand our customer base;
advancing applicable technologies;
introducing new products; and
enhancing our existing product lines.
In certain instances, we may share research and development costs with our customers by billing for non-recurring engineering services often
provided for under development portions of certain contracts. Revenue recognized for non-recurring engineering services represented 6% of our revenue in
fiscal 2023 and 2% of our revenue in fiscal 2022.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred research and development expenses amounting to $2.8 million and $3.0
million, respectively, which costs exclude labor and related expenses of approximately $724,000 and $739,000 in fiscal 2023 and 2022, respectively, that
were reimbursed by our customers through billings for non-recurring engineering services.
Human Capital Management
Our employees are among our most critical assets. The success and growth of our business depends on our ability to attract, reward, retain and
develop talent in all levels of our organization, including, but not limited to, machine operators, assembly technicians, engineers, and management.
In order to attract and retain highly qualified employees, we offer the following:
·
·
·
·
·
Competitive, reasonable, and equitable compensation programs;
Comprehensive and highly competitive health and welfare benefits to promote our employees’ physical health, as well as a 401(k) plan to
support our employees’ financial health;
An Employee Stock Purchase Plan and equity compensation to provide financial value, align employee’s interests with those of our
shareholders, and incentivize retention;
Flexible paid vacation and sick time, as well as paid volunteer time; and
Education/tuition reimbursement and referral programs.
Our employee turnover for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 16% and 14%, respectively. We consider the turnover rate a
valuable metric to measure the effectiveness of our programs and to assist in developing new programs.
Employees
At June 30, 2023, we had 146 employees, one of whom was part time, working at our two office locations in California and one employee
working remotely out of state. At June 30, 2022, we had 135 employees, one of whom was part-time, working at either our corporate office in Irvine,
California or our Franklin office in Tustin, California and one employee working remotely out of state. None of our employees are a party to any collective
bargaining agreements with us. We consider our relationships with our employees to be good.
5
Government Regulations
The manufacture and distribution of medical devices are subject to state and federal requirements set forth by various agencies, including the
FDA, and state medical boards. The statutes, regulations, administrative orders, and advisories that affect our businesses are complex and subject to
diverse, often conflicting, interpretations. While we make every effort to maintain full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, we are unable
to eliminate the ongoing risk that one or more of our activities or devices may at some point be determined to be non-compliant. The penalties for non-
compliance could range from an administrative warning to termination of a portion of our business. Furthermore, even if we are subsequently determined to
have fully complied with applicable laws or regulations, the costs to achieve such a determination and the intervening loss of business could adversely
affect or result in the cessation of a portion of our business. A change in such laws or regulations at any time may have an adverse effect on our operations.
The FDA designates all medical devices into one of three classes (Class I, II, or III) based on the level of control necessary to assure the safety and
effectiveness of the device (with Class I requiring the lowest level of control and Class III requiring the greatest level of control). The surgical
instrumentation we manufacture is generally classified into Class I. The FDA has broad enforcement powers to recall and prohibit the sale of products that
do not comply with federal regulations and to order the cessation of non-compliant processes. No claim has been made to date by the FDA regarding any of
our products or processes. Nevertheless, as is common in the industry, certain of our products and processes have been the subject of routine governmental
reviews and investigations.
The total cost of providing health care services has been and will continue to be subject to review by governmental agencies and legislative bodies
in the major world markets, including the United States, which are faced with significant pressure to lower health care costs.
We believe that our business is conducted in a manner consistent with the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and other agency regulations
governing disposition of industrial waste materials.
While we believe that our products and processes fully comply with applicable laws and regulations, we are unable to predict the outcome of any
investigation or review which may be undertaken in the future with respect to our products or processes.
Management believes that each of our facilities has manufacturing systems and processes that are based on established Quality Management
System standards. In addition, we believe that both our Irvine, California and Tustin, California facilities are compliant with applicable Good
Manufacturing Practices promulgated by the FDA and are compliant with applicable ISO standards set forth by the International Organization for
Standardization.
Patents, Trademarks, and Licensing Agreements
We hold US and foreign patents relating to our handheld medical devices and torque-limiting screwdrivers. Our patents have varying expiration
dates. The near-term expiration of the patents, if any, is not expected to cause any change in our revenue-generating operations as changing the legal
manufacturer of medical devices is a significant undertaking and the expiration of a patent would offer minimal inducement to make such a change.
We have no reason to believe that our activities infringe upon the intellectual property of any third party. With respect to our own patents, we have
no reason to believe that our patents are invalid, and we believe that at least some of our patents cover certain aspects of our products. Although we are
currently unaware of any reason that would cause us to assert or defend a claim of patent infringement, any such assertion or defense could materially and
adversely affect our business and results of operations due to the costs involved.
We have certain federally registered trademarks relating to our products, including Pro-Dex®, along with a number of other common law
trademarks.
We have not entered into any franchising agreements. We have not granted, nor do we hold any, third-party licenses having terms under which we
earn revenue or incur expense in material amounts.

ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other
information contained in this report, before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, our
business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects would suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock would likely decline and
you might lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. The risks described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks that we
currently do not know about or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our operations and business results.
Risks Related to Our Business and the Industry in Which We Operate
A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from a few customers. If we were to lose a key customer, it would have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
In fiscal 2023, our top three customers accounted for 92% of our sales, with our current largest customer accounting for 67% of our sales. This
customer has made purchase commitments to us through a supply agreement to purchase surgical handpieces through calendar 2025. We provide this
customer with a device used primarily in elective surgeries and although this customer has not requested a reduction or delay to their planned shipments, if
the COVID-19 pandemic were to again materially adversely impact the United States and other markets where our products are sold, coupled with any new
recommended deferrals of elective procedures by governments and other authorities, we would expect to see a decline in demand from our principal
customer. The loss of this customer or any of our significant customers would severely impact us, including having a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, cash flows, revenue, and results of operations.
A substantial portion of our business is derived from our core business area that, if not serviced properly, may result in a material adverse impact
upon our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
In fiscal 2023, we derived 97% of our revenue from sales of our medical device products and related services. We believe that a primary factor in
the market acceptance of our products and services is the value they create for our customers. Our future financial performance will depend in large part on
our ability to continue to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers through the timely development, and successful introduction and
implementation, of new and enhanced products and services, while at the same time continuing to provide the value our customers have come to expect
from us. We have historically expended a significant percentage of our revenue on product development and believe that significant continued product
development efforts will be required to sustain our growth. Continued investment in our sales and marketing efforts will also be required to support future
growth.
There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our product development efforts, that the market will continue to accept our existing
products, or that new products or product enhancements will be developed and implemented in a timely manner, meet the requirements of our customers, or
achieve market acceptance. If the market does not continue to accept our existing products, or our new products or product enhancements do not achieve
market acceptance, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Our customers may cancel or reduce their orders, change production quantities, or delay production, any of which would reduce our sales and
adversely affect our results of operations.
Since most of our customers purchase our products from us on a purchase order basis, they may cancel, change, or delay product purchase
commitments with little notice to us. As a result, we are not always able to forecast with certainty the sales that we will make in a given period and
sometimes we may increase our inventory, working capital, and overhead in expectation of orders that may never be placed, or, if placed, may be delayed,
reduced, or canceled.
The following factors, among others, affect our ability to forecast accurately our sales and production capacity:
•
•
Changes in the specific products or quantities our customers order; and
Long lead times and advance financial commitments for components required to complete actual/anticipated customer orders.
7
In addition to reducing our sales, delayed, reduced, or canceled purchase orders also may result in our inability to recover costs that we incur in
anticipation of those orders, such as costs associated with purchased raw materials and write-offs of obsolete inventory.
In recent years, we have launched several new medical device products and our estimates of warranty claims are based largely on our previous
history from similar legacy products. If actual warranty claims exceed our estimates, it could have an adverse effect on our results of operations
and financial condition.
In recent years, we have completed significant medical device development projects in the CMF and thoracic surgical segments for which we have
made estimates of product warranty claims based upon similar, legacy products. If the actual repair volumes or repair costs exceed the estimates that we
have been using, we may incur additional costs which could be materially adverse to our results of operations and financial condition.
We face significant competition from a number of different sources, which could negatively impact our results of operations.
The markets for products in the industries served by our customers are intensely competitive, and we face significant competition from a number
of different sources. Several of our competitors have significantly greater name recognition, as well as substantially greater financial, technical, product
development and marketing resources, than us.
We compete in all of our markets with other major surgical device and related companies. As a provider of outsourced products and services, we
also compete with our customers’ own internal development groups. Competitive pressures and other factors, such as new product or new technology
introductions by us, our customers’ internal development and manufacturing departments, or our competitors, may result in price or market share erosion
that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Also, there can be no assurance that our products
and services will achieve broad market acceptance or will successfully compete with other products.
The industry in which we operate is subject to significant technological change and any failure or delay in addressing such change could adversely
affect our competitive position or could make our current products obsolete.
The medical device market is generally characterized by rapid technological change, changing customer needs, frequent new product introductions
and evolving industry standards. The introduction of products incorporating new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards could render
our existing products obsolete and unmarketable. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing and marketing new products that
respond to technological changes or evolving industry standards.
New product development requires significant research and development expenditures that we have historically funded through operations;
however, we may be unable to do so in the future. Any significant decrease in revenues or research funding could impair our ability to respond to
technological advances in the marketplace and to remain competitive. If we are unable, for technological or other reasons, to develop and introduce new
products in a timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements, our business, results of operations, and financial
condition may be materially adversely affected. Although we continue to target new markets for access, develop new products, and update existing
products, there can be no assurance that we will do so successfully or that, even if we are successful, such efforts will be completed concurrently with or
prior to the introduction of competing products. Any such failure or delay could adversely affect our competitive position or could make our current
products obsolete.
8
We rely heavily on our proprietary technology, which, if not properly protected or if deemed invalid, could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We are dependent on the maintenance and protection of our proprietary technology and rely on patent filings, exclusive development and supply
agreements, confidentiality procedures and employee nondisclosure agreements to protect it. There can be no assurance that the legal protections and
precautions taken by us will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology or that competitors will not independently develop technologies
equivalent or superior to ours. Further, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the
United States and are often not enforced as vigorously as those in the United States.
We do not believe that our operations or products infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. However, there can be no assurance that
others will not assert infringement or trade secret claims against us with respect to our current or future products. Assertions or claims by others, whether or
not valid, could cause us to incur significant legal costs defending our intellectual property rights and potentially require us to enter into a license
agreement or royalty arrangement with the party asserting the claim or to cease our use of the infringing technology, any of which could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If our technology infrastructure is compromised, damaged or interrupted by a cybersecurity incident, data security breach or other security
problems, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
We use technology in substantially all aspects of our business operations, and our ability to serve customers most effectively depends on the
reliability of our technology systems. We use software and other technology systems, among other things, to generate sales orders, job orders, and purchase
orders and to monitor and manage our business on a day-to-day basis. Cybersecurity incidents can include computer viruses, computer denial-of-service
attacks, worms, and other malicious software programs or other attacks, covert introduction of malware to computers and networks, impersonation of
authorized users, and efforts to discover and exploit any design flaws, bugs, security vulnerabilities or security weaknesses, as well as intentional or
unintentional acts by employees or other insiders with access privileges, intentional acts of vandalism by third parties and sabotage.
In addition, our technology infrastructure and systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, power loss and
telecommunications failures. Any such disruption to our systems, or the technology systems of third parties on which we rely, the failure of these systems
to otherwise perform as anticipated, or the theft, destruction, loss, misappropriation, or release of sensitive and/or confidential information or intellectual
property, could result in business disruption, negative publicity, loss of customers, potential liability, including litigation or other legal actions against us or
the imposition of penalties, fines, fees or liabilities, which may not be covered by our insurance policies, and competitive disadvantage, any or all of which
would potentially adversely affect our customer service, decrease the volume of our business and result in increased costs and lower profits. Moreover, a
cybersecurity breach could require us to devote significant management resources to address the problems associated with the breach and to expend
significant additional resources to upgrade further the security measures we employ to protect information against cyber-attacks and other wrongful
attempts to access such information, which could result in a disruption of our operations.
While we have invested, and continue to invest, in technology security initiatives and other measures to prevent security breaches and cyber
incidents, as well as disaster recovery plans, these initiatives and measures may not be entirely effective to insulate us from technology disruption that
could result in adverse effects on our results of operations and financial condition.
To service our debt obligations, we will require a significant amount of cash. However, our ability to generate cash depends on many factors
beyond our control.
Our ability to make payments on, and to refinance, our debt obligations and to fund capital expenditures, will depend on our ability to generate
cash in the future, which, in turn, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our
control.
Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and we may not have available to us future borrowings in an amount
sufficient to enable us to pay our debt obligations or to fund our other liquidity needs. In these circumstances, we may need to refinance all or a portion of
our debt obligations on or before maturity. We may not be able to refinance any of our debt obligations, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Without this financing, we could be forced to sell assets or secure additional financing to make up for any shortfall in our payment obligations under
unfavorable circumstances. However, we may not be able to secure additional financing on terms favorable to us or at all and, in addition, the agreements
governing our debt obligations limit our ability to sell assets. In addition, we may not be able to sell assets quickly enough or for sufficient amounts to
enable us to meet our obligations.
9
Our cash and cash equivalents may be exposed to banking institution risk.
We hold our cash balances with a single financial institution which institution is subject to risks, which may include failure or other circumstances
that limit our access to deposits or other banking services. For example, in March 2023, Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) was unable to continue their
operations and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) was appointed as receiver for SVB. However, if further failures in financial institutions
occur where we hold deposits, we could experience additional risk. Any such loss or limitation on our cash and cash equivalents would adversely affect our
business.
In addition, in such circumstances we might not be able to receive timely payment from customers. We and they may maintain cash balances that
are not insured or are in excess of the FDIC’s insurance limit. Any delay in ours or our customers’ ability to access funds could have a material adverse
effect on our operations. If any parties with which we conduct business are unable to access funds pursuant to such instruments or lending arrangements
with such a financial institution, such parties’ ability to continue to fund their business and perform their obligations to us could be adversely affected,
which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We periodically invest surplus cash in marketable securities and other investments in order to realize a positive return, although there can be no
assurance that a positive return will be realized, and we could lose some or all of our investments, which could adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operation.
We invest a significant portion of our excess capital in marketable securities, including equity securities of publicly traded companies. At June 30,
2023, the fair value of our investments was approximately $8.7 million. Of that amount $6.2 million relates to an investment in Monogram Orthopaedics
Inc. (“Monogram”) described more fully in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report. The investment in
Monogram is also the subject of the restatement of our previous financial statements described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained
elsewhere in this report. Our initial investment in Monogram was an $800,000 loan which we made primarily in exchange for exclusive development and
supply rights. At that time, we believed that this long-term strategic investment would likely take several years to cultivate, which it has. While we intend
to hold our investments, including our investment in Monogram, until such time as we believe it is appropriate to sell them in accordance with our overall
investment policy, we may have unexpected cash requirements that could necessitate the sale of some or all of these investments for a loss. Additionally,
these investments are subject to changes in their valuation, which could cause us to record a significant unrealized loss in the future.
We may not be able to successfully integrate our business acquisitions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results
of operations.
We have acquired, and may acquire in the future, businesses, products, and technologies that complement or expand our current operations.
Acquisitions could require significant capital investments and require us to integrate with companies that have different cultures, management teams, and
business infrastructure. Depending on the size and complexity of an acquisition, our successful integration of the acquisition could depend on several
factors, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Difficulties in assimilating and integrating the operations, products, and workforce of an acquired business;
The retention of key employees;
Management of facilities and employees in separate geographic areas;
The integration or coordination of different research and development and product manufacturing facilities;
Successfully converting information and accounting systems; and
Diversion of resources and management attention from our other operations.
If market conditions or other factors require us to change our strategic direction, we may fail to realize the expected value from one or more of our
acquisitions. Our failure to successfully integrate any future acquisitions or realize the expected value from past or future acquisitions could harm our
business, financial condition, and results of operations.
10
We have experienced losses in the past, and we cannot be certain that we will sustain our current profitability; we may need additional capital in
the future to fund our businesses, which we may not be able to obtain on acceptable terms.
We have experienced operating losses in the past. Our ability to achieve or sustain profitability is based on a number of factors, many of which are
out of our control, including the material costs for our products and the demand for our products.
We currently anticipate that our available capital resources, including our existing cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable balances, will
be sufficient to meet our expected working capital and capital expenditure requirements as our business is currently conducted for at least the next
12 months. We may also attempt to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financings, if such financings become available on
acceptable terms. We cannot be certain that any additional financing we may need will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds
are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of opportunities, develop new products, or otherwise
respond to competitive pressures, and our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Our operations are dependent upon our key personnel. If such personnel were to leave unexpectedly, we may not be able to execute our business
plan.
Our future performance depends in significant part upon the continued service of our key technical and senior management personnel. Because we
have a relatively small number of employees when compared to other companies in the same industry, our dependence on maintaining our relationship with
key employees is particularly significant. We are also dependent on our ability to attract and retain high quality personnel, particularly in the areas of
product development, operations management, marketing and finance.
A high level of employee mobility and the aggressive recruiting of skilled personnel characterize the medical device industry. There can be no
assurance that our current employees will continue to work for us. Loss of services of key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, and financial condition. Furthermore, we may need to provide enhanced forms of incentive compensation to attract and retain such
key personnel, which could potentially dilute the holdings of other shareholders.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
Two of our directors hold voting power with respect to a substantial portion of our outstanding common stock that enables them to have
significant influence over the outcome of all matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, which influence may conflict with our interests
and the interests of other shareholders.
As of August 12, 2023, two of our directors, Nicholas J. Swenson and Raymond E. Cabillot, directly or indirectly, controlled voting power over
approximately 39% (29% and 10%, respectively) of the outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of such voting control, these directors will
have significant influence over all matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, including the election of our directors and other corporate actions,
and may have interests that conflict with our interests and the interests of other shareholders.
Our quarterly results can fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, which may negatively impact the price of our shares and/or cause
significant variances in the prices at which our shares trade.
Our sales have fluctuated in the past, and may fluctuate in the future from quarter to quarter and period to period, as a result of a number of
factors, including, without limitation: the size and timing of orders from customers; the length of new product development cycles; market acceptance of
new technologies; changes in pricing policies or price reductions by us or our competitors; the timing of new product announcements and product
introductions by us or our competitors; the financial stability of major customers; our success in expanding our sales and marketing programs; acceleration,
deferral, or cancellation of customer orders and deliveries; changes in our strategy; revenue recognition policies in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”); personnel changes; and general market and economic factors.
Because a significant percentage of our expenses are fixed, a variation in the timing of sales can cause significant fluctuations in operating results
from quarter to quarter. As a result, we believe that interim period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and
should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. Further, our historical operating results are not necessarily indicative of future performance
for any particular period.
11
In addition, it is possible that our operating results in future quarters may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In
such an event, the price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.
Regulatory & Compliance Risks
Our operations are subject to a number of complex government regulations, the violation of which could have a material adverse effect on our
business.
The manufacture and distribution of medical devices are subject to state and federal requirements set forth by various government agencies
including the FDA and EPA. The statutes, regulations, administrative orders, and advisories that affect our businesses are complex and subject to diverse,
often conflicting, interpretations. While we make every effort to maintain full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, we are unable to
eliminate the ongoing risk that one or more of our activities may at some point be determined to be non-compliant. The penalties for non-compliance could
range from an administrative warning to termination of a portion of our business. Furthermore, even if we are subsequently determined to have fully
complied with applicable laws or regulations, the costs to achieve such a determination and the intervening loss of business could adversely affect or result
in the cessation of a portion of our business. A change in such laws or regulations at any time may have an adverse effect on our operations.
The FDA designates all medical devices into one of three classes (Class I, II, or III) based on the level of control necessary to assure the safety and
effectiveness of the device (with Class I requiring the lowest level of control and Class III requiring the greatest level of control). The surgical
instrumentation we manufacture is generally classified into Class I. The FDA has broad enforcement powers to recall and prohibit the sale of products that
do not comply with federal regulations and to order the cessation of non-compliant processes. No claim has been made to date by the FDA regarding any of
our products or processes. Nevertheless, as is common in the industry, certain of our products and processes are from time to time subject to routine
governmental reviews and investigations. We are also subject to EPA regulations concerning the disposal of industrial waste.
While management believes that our products and processes fully comply with applicable laws and regulations, we are unable to predict the
outcome of any such future review or investigation.
We face risks and uncertainties associated with potential litigation by or against us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations.
We continually face the possibility of litigation as either a plaintiff or a defendant. It is not reasonably possible to estimate the awards or damages,
or the range of awards or damages, if any, that we might incur in connection with such litigation.
Many of our products are complex and technologically advanced. Such products may, from time to time, be the subject of claims concerning
product performance and construction, including warranty and patent infringement claims. While we are committed to investigating such concerns and
correcting them, there is no assurance that solutions will be found on a timely basis, if at all, to satisfy customer demands or to avoid potential claims or
litigation. Also, due to the location of our facilities, as well as the nature of our business activities, there is a risk that we could be subject to litigation
related to environmental remediation claims. We maintain insurance to protect against claims associated with the manufacture and use of our products as
well as environmental pollution, but there can be no assurance that our insurance coverage will adequately cover any claim asserted against us.
The uncertainty associated with potential litigation may have an adverse impact on our business. In particular, litigation could impair our
relationships with existing customers and our ability to obtain new customers. Defending or prosecuting litigation could result in significant legal costs and
a diversion of management’s time and attention away from business operations, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations. There can be no assurance that litigation would not result in liability in excess of our insurance coverage, that
our insurance will cover such claims, or that appropriate insurance will continue to be available to us in the future at commercially reasonable rates.
12
The agreements governing our various debt obligations impose restrictions on our business and could adversely affect our ability to undertake
certain corporate actions.
The agreements governing our debt obligations include covenants imposing significant restrictions on our business. These restrictions may affect our
ability to operate our business and may limit our ability to take advantage of potential business opportunities as they arise. These covenants place
restrictions on our ability to, among other things:
• incur additional debt;
• declare or pay dividends to shareholders;
• create liens or use assets as security in other transactions;
• be acquired by a third party;
• pursue strategic acquisitions;
• engage in transactions with affiliates; and
• sell or transfer assets.
The agreements governing our debt obligations also require us to comply with a number of financial ratios, borrowing base requirements and
additional covenants.
Our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial, and industry
conditions. These covenants could adversely affect our business by limiting our ability to take advantage of financing, merger and acquisition, or other
corporate opportunities. The breach of any of these covenants or restrictions could result in a default under our debt obligations. If we were unable to repay
our debt or are otherwise in default under any provision governing our secured debt obligations, our lender could proceed against us and against the
collateral securing that debt.
We are subject to changes in and interpretations of financial accounting matters that govern the measurement of our performance, compliance
with which could be costly and time-consuming.
We are subject to changes in and interpretations of financial accounting standards that govern the measurement of our performance. Based on our
reading and interpretations of relevant pronouncements, guidance, or concepts issued by, among other authorities, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board, the SEC, and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, management believes our performance, including current sales contract terms
and business arrangements, has been properly reported. However, there continue to be issued pronouncements, interpretations, and guidance for applying
the relevant standards to a wide range of contract terms and business arrangements that are prevalent in the industries in which we operate. Future
interpretations or changes by the regulators of existing accounting standards or changes in our business practices may result in future changes in our
accounting policies and practices that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, revenue, and results of
operations.
Our evaluation of internal controls and remediation of potential problems is costly and time-consuming and could expose weaknesses in financial
reporting.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, requires management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting. This process is expensive and time consuming and requires significant attention of management. Management can give no assurance
that material weaknesses in internal controls will not be discovered. The material weakness discovered in conjunction with the preparation of our
consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, as described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained
elsewhere in this report, for example, has been time consuming and costly. The disclosure of a material weakness, even if quickly remedied, could reduce
the market’s confidence in our financial statements and harm our stock price, especially if a restatement of financial statements for past periods is required.
Risks Related to COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic, or the perception of its effects, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of
operations.
To date, COVID-19 has not had a material adverse impact on our business or results of operations, but due to the uncertainties surrounding this
pandemic, it may adversely impact us in the future. We have and may continue to experience disruptions in our supply chain and critical suppliers may
delay or be unable to deliver products we have ordered. Additionally, our customers could reduce planned orders, request cancelations of existing orders,
and/or delay payment to us due to financial hardship they may experience as a result of this healthcare and resulting economic crisis. Therefore, it is
impossible to predict the future impact of the pandemic on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
13
The ability of our employees to work may be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.
Substantially all of our employees worked in the office during fiscal 2023. The health of our workforce is of primary concern and we may need to
enact further precautionary measures to help minimize the risk of our employees being exposed to the coronavirus. Further, our management team is
focused on mitigating the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has required and may continue to require a large investment of time and
resources across the entire Company, thereby diverting their attention from other priorities that existed prior to the outbreak of the pandemic. To date,
several of our employees have had COVID-19, but all have made full recoveries and returned to work. If more of our employees test positive for COVID-
19, or these conditions worsen, or last for an extended period of time, our ability to manage our business may be impaired, and operational risks,
cybersecurity risks, and other risks facing us even prior to the pandemic may be elevated.
General Risks
The global economic environment may impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Changes in the global economic environment have caused, and may cause in the future, a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of
liquidity, increases in rates of default and bankruptcy, high rates of inflation, higher interest rates, and extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income
markets. These macroeconomic developments could negatively affect our business, operating results or financial condition should they cause, for example,
current or potential customers to become unable to fund purchases of our products, in turn resulting in delays, decreases or cancellations of purchases of
our products and services, or causing the customer to not pay us or to delay paying us for previously purchased products and services. In addition, financial
institution failures may cause us to incur increased expenses or make it more difficult either to obtain financing for our operations, investing activities
(including the financing of any future acquisitions), or financing activities. Additional economic risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that
we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

PROPERTIES
Our executive offices and manufacturing facility are located at 2361 McGaw Avenue, Irvine, California 92614. We lease the 28,000 square foot
facility from an unrelated third party at a current base monthly lease rate of approximately $42,000 with 3% annual escalations through the expiration of
the lease in September 2027. The building is a one-story, stand-alone structure of concrete “tilt-up” construction, approximately 45 years old and in good
condition.
Our Franklin Property, located at 14401 Franklin Avenue, Tustin, California 92780, is used primarily for our assembly and repairs operations. We
purchased this 25,000 square foot facility in November 2020 from an unrelated third party through a loan (See Note 5 of to the consolidated financial
statements contained elsewhere in this report). The building is a one-story, stand-alone structure of concrete “tilt-up” construction, approximately 45 years
old and in good condition.
We believe that our facilities are adequate for our current and expected future needs and are in full compliance with applicable state, EPA and
other agency environmental standards.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report, as well as the Risk Factors included in Item 1A of this report. The following discussion
contains forward-looking statements. (See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included in Part I of this report.)
Overview
The following discussion and analysis provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our
results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
We specialize in the design, development, and manufacture of autoclavable, battery-powered and electric, multi-function surgical drivers and
shavers used primarily in the orthopedic, thoracic, and CMF markets. Additionally, we provide engineering, quality, and regulatory consulting services to
our customers. We also sell rotary air motors. Our products are found in hospitals, medical engineering labs, scientific research facilities, and high-tech
manufacturing operations around the world. We are headquartered in Irvine, California.
COVID-19 Pandemic
We have adjusted certain policies and procedures based on applicable national, state, and local emergency orders and safety guidance that may be
issued from time to time, in order to effectively manage our business during the pandemic and to keep our employees safe. These measures have changed
over time and continue to change as our specific circumstances change.
While we have yet to see any decline in our customer orders, we have received and accepted some customer requests to delay the shipment of their
existing orders. We are focused on the health and safety of all those we serve – our customers, our communities, our employees, and our suppliers. We are
supporting our customers according to their priorities and working with them to the degree that we can offer relief in the form of delayed shipments. We are
focused on continuity of supply by working with our suppliers, some of whom have delivered our orders late and are quoting longer lead times.
During fiscal 2022, we began to see some challenges in our supply chain in the form of delayed shipments, longer lead times, higher prices, and
surcharges, much of which our suppliers indicate have been caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have largely been able to mitigate our biggest supply
chain concerns by sourcing replacement chips through alternative suppliers, albeit at much higher prices, for many of our printed circuit board assemblies.
In so doing, our cost of sales increased during the second half of fiscal 2022 and in fiscal 2023. We continue to implement plans and processes to mitigate
these challenges that many manufacturers similarly face. Our long-term prospects remain positive, and we believe these challenges will negatively impact
us only in the short-term.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on
historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.

Revenue Recognition
Under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, (Topic 606) “Revenue From Contracts with Customers,” we recognize revenue from the
sales of products and services by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the
contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue
when each performance obligation is satisfied. We primarily sell finished products and recognize revenue at point of sale or delivery. However, we also
perform services when we are engaged to design a product for a customer and there is more judgment involved in determining the amount and timing of
revenue recognition under those types of contracts. In fiscal 2023, the revenue from non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) and prototype services represents
approximately 6% of total revenue.
Returns of our product for credit are not material; accordingly, we do not establish a reserve for product returns at the time of sale.
Estimated Losses on Product Development Services
Cost and revenue estimates related to the product development service portions of development and supply contracts are reviewed and updated
quarterly. An expected loss on development service contracts is recognized immediately in cost of sales. Losses recorded in fiscal 2023 and 2022 related to
these services totaled $108,000 and $0, respectively.
Owing to the complexity of many of the contracts we have undertaken, the cost estimation process requires significant judgment. It is based upon
the knowledge and experience of our project managers, engineers, and finance professionals. Factors that are considered in estimating the cost of work to
be completed and ultimate profitability of the fixed price product development portion of development and supply contracts include the nature and
complexity of the work to be performed, availability and productivity of labor, the effect of change orders, the availability of materials, performance of
subcontractors, and expected costs for specific regulatory approvals.
Warranties
Most of our products are sold with a warranty that provides for repairs or replacement of any defective parts for a period, generally one to two
years, after the sale. At the time of the sale, we accrue an estimate of the cost of providing the warranty based on prior experience with such factors as
return rates and repair costs, which factors are reviewed quarterly.
Warranty expenses, including changes of estimates, are included in cost of sales in our statements of operations.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Reductions to estimated net realizable value are
recorded, and charged to cost of sales, when indicated based on a formula that compares on-hand quantities to both historical usage and estimated demand
over the ensuing 12 months from the measurement date.
Accounts Receivable
Trade receivables are stated at their original invoice amounts, less an allowance for doubtful portions of such accounts. Management determines
the allowance for doubtful accounts based on facts and circumstances related to specific accounts, and on historical experience related to the age of
accounts. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously reserved are offset against the allowance
when received.
Deferred Costs
Deferred costs reflect costs incurred related to non-recurring engineering services under the terms of the related development and supply contracts.
These costs get recorded to cost of sales in the period that the revenue is recognized.
Investments
Investments consist of marketable equity securities of publicly held companies and a warrant (the “Monogram Warrant”) to purchase common
stock of a publicly held company. The investments were made to realize a reasonable return, although there is no assurance that positive returns will be
realized. Investments are marked to market at each measurement date, with unrealized gains and losses presented in other income (expense) in our
consolidated income statements. Some of our investments include the common stock of public companies that are thinly traded. Certain of these
investments are classified as long-term in nature, as we may not be able to liquidate the investments in a timely manner even if we wish to sell them. Thinly
traded investments were subject to a valuation analysis as of June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Monogram Warrant is the subject of the restatement of our
previous financial statements described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report. As previously disclosed, from
the time we were issued the Monogram warrant through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we considered the Monogram warrant to be of little value and did
not record it as an investment in our consolidated balance sheet.
Long-lived Assets
We review the recoverability of long-lived assets, consisting of building, equipment, and improvements, when events or changes in circumstances
occur that indicate carrying values may not be recoverable.
Building, equipment, and improvements are recorded at historical cost and depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
following periods:
Building
Equipment
Improvements
Intangibles
Thirty years
Three to ten years
Shorter of the remaining life of the underlying building, lease term, or the asset’s
estimated useful life
Other intangibles consist of legal fees incurred in connection with patent applications. The legal fees will be amortized over the estimated life of
the product(s) that will be utilizing the technology or expensed immediately in the event the patent office denies the issuance of the patent. The expense
associated with the amortization of the patent costs is recognized in research and development costs.
Income Taxes
We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and
liabilities, along with net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. Deferred tax assets and liabilities at June 30, 2023 and 2022 consisted primarily of basis
differences related to unrealized gain/loss related to investments, stock-based compensation, fixed assets, accrued expenses and inventories. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes and the recoverability of our deferred tax assets. Such
determination is based on our historical taxable income, with consideration given to our estimates of future taxable income and the periods over which
deferred tax assets will be recoverable. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence,
including reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and results of recent operations. The assumptions about future taxable
income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying business. In evaluating the
objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider three years of cumulative operating income (loss).

Net sales in fiscal 2023 increased by $4.0 million, or 10%, as compared to fiscal 2022, due primarily to an increase in repair revenue of $6.0
million and an increase in NRE and prototype services of $1.7 million offset by a decrease in medical device revenue of $3.3 million. Details of our
medical device sales by type is as follows:

Sales of our medical device products decreased $3.3 million, or 10%, during fiscal 2023 as compared to fiscal 2022. During fiscal 2023, thoracic
sales increased by $705,000 to $2.6 million, up from $1.9 million in fiscal 2022, due to additional orders from our single distributor of this driver. In late
fiscal 2023, we executed a supply agreement with another distributor for a thoracic driver and we expect an increase in revenue of thoracic products in
fiscal 2024. Recurring revenue from distributors of CMF drivers decreased $1.8 million in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. We do not have much
visibility into our customers’ distribution networks, but we surmise the decline relates to a buildup of customer inventory. Our orthopedic sales decreased
$2.2 million in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022, in part, due to our largest customer shifting priorities to an enhanced repair program (described under
the discussion of repair revenue below).
Sales of our industrial and scientific products, which consist primarily of our compact pneumatic air motors, decreased $54,000, or 6%, for fiscal
2023 compared to fiscal 2022. The revenue decrease is expected as these are legacy products with no substantive marketing or sales efforts.
Sales of our NRE & prototype services increased $1.7 million or 166% compared to fiscal 2022 and relates to billable engagement for multiple
engineering projects.
Sales of our dental products and components in fiscal 2023 decreased $208,000, or 45%, as compared to fiscal 2022. The decrease is as expected
because in fiscal 2022 we sold components of excess inventory directly to our largest customer due to the release of their next generation device. We expect
future declines in this area as we are no longer manufacturing dental products, but rather are simply selling remaining component inventory.
Our fiscal 2023 repair revenue increased approximately $6.0 million, or 91%, to $12.6 million, as compared to fiscal 2022, due to increased
repairs of the orthopedic handpiece we sell to our largest customer. We expected repair revenue to increase based upon the customer’s requested
refurbishments to upgrade previously purchased handpieces to the next generation, which we collectively term “enhanced repairs”. We are rapidly
refurbishing these handpieces and we believe that our largest customer will request enhanced repairs for a similar volume or number of handpieces in fiscal
2024, but there are no assurances that our customer will return the same volume of handpieces.
At June 30, 2023, we had a backlog of $41.6 million compared with a backlog of $16.5 million at June 30, 2022. Our backlog represents firm
purchase orders received and acknowledged from our customers and does not include all revenue expected to be generated from existing customer
contracts. Of our backlog at June 30, 2023, $31.4 million, as well as certain purchase orders received subsequent to June 30, 2023, are expected to be
delivered during fiscal 2024 and the balance of $10.2 million is expected to be delivered in fiscal 2025. We have experienced, and may continue to
experience, variability in our new order bookings due to, among other reasons, the launch of new products, the timing of customer orders based on end-user
demand, and customer inventory levels. We do not typically experience seasonal fluctuations in our shipments and revenues.

Cost of sales in fiscal 2023 increased $4.4 million, or 15%, from fiscal 2022, primarily due to the increase in product costs, consistent with the
10% increase in net sales, coupled with higher material and labor costs. During fiscal 2023, we experienced $1.7 million of under-absorption of
manufacturing costs compared to $877,000 in fiscal 2022, due primarily to actual production hours being less than planned. Costs related to inventory and
warranty charges decreased $672,000 in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022, primarily due to sourcing of components for our printed circuit board
assemblies at prices higher than usual in fiscal 2022 coupled with reduced warranty repairs related to the handpiece we sell to our largest customer in fiscal
2023.

Selling expenses consist of salaries and other personnel-related expenses related to our business development department, as well as trade show
attendance, advertising and marketing expenses, and travel and related costs incurred in generating and maintaining customer relationships. Selling
expenses increased $64,000, or 70%, compared to fiscal 2022, primarily due to increased sales commissions.
General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) consist of salaries and other personnel-related expenses for corporate, accounting, finance, and
human resource personnel, as well as costs for outsourced information technology services, professional fees, directors’ fees, and costs associated with
being a public company. The $875,000 decrease in G&A expenses from fiscal 2022 to 2023 is due primarily to reduced legal and settlement expenses
related to employment matters and reduced non-cash compensation expense related to stock compensation.
Research and development costs generally consist of salaries, employer-paid benefits, and other personnel- related costs of our engineering and
support personnel, as well as allocated facility and information technology costs, professional and consulting fees, patent-related fees, lab costs, materials,
and travel and related costs incurred in the development and support of our products. Research and development costs decreased $176,000 from fiscal 2022
to 2023 due to increased personnel and related costs of $333,000 as well as increased legal fees related to IP matters of $89,000 offset by decreased
spending on internal product development projects of $604,000. In fiscal 2023, our engineering department has continued to be engaged in billable
customer projects and therefore those costs are shifted to cost of sales instead of research and development.
20
Although the majority of our research and development costs relate to sustaining activities related to products we currently manufacture and sell,
we have created a product roadmap to develop future products. Many of our product development efforts are undertaken only upon completion of an
analysis of the size of the market, our ability to differentiate our product from our competitors’, as well as an analysis of our specific sales prospects with
new and/or existing customers. Research and development costs represent between 37% and 40% of total operating expenses during fiscal 2022 and 2023
and are expected to increase in the future as we continue to invest in product development. The amount spent on projects under development is summarized

(3) We have suspended the vital ventilator project at this time.
As we introduce new products into the market, we expect to see an increase in sustaining and other engineering expenses. Typical examples of
sustaining engineering activities include, but are not limited to, end-of- life component replacement, especially in electronic components found in our
printed circuit board assemblies, analysis of customer complaint data to improve process and design, replacement and enhancement of tooling and fixtures
used in the machine shop, assembly operations, and inspection areas to improve efficiency and through-put. Additionally, these costs include development
projects that may be in their infancy and may or may not result in a full-fledged product development effort.
Other Income (Expense)
Interest and Dividend Income
Our interest and dividend income earned in fiscal 2023 and 2022 includes income earned from our interest-bearing money market accounts and
portfolio of equity investments.
Unrealized gain (loss) on investments
The unrealized gain (loss) on investments relates to our investment portfolio, which is the subject of our restatement described in Note 2 to the
consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report. Additional information related to the nature of our investments is more fully described
in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report.
21
Gain on Sale of Investments
During fiscal 2023, we liquidated some of the investments in our portfolio of equity investments receiving proceeds of $89,000 and recording a
gain of $6,000. During fiscal 2022, we liquidated some of the investments in our portfolio of equity investments receiving proceeds of $770,000 and
recording a gain of $28,000.
Interest Expense
Interest expense incurred in fiscal 2023 and 2022 consists primarily of interest expense related to our debt with Minnesota Bank & Trust (“MBT”)
described more fully in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 26% and 20%, as restated, respectively, slightly less than our
combined expected federal and applicable state corporate income tax rates due primarily to federal and state research credits.

Cash provided by operating activities during fiscal 2023 totaled $5.5 million. Our net income was $7.1 million and included $3.9 million of
unrealized gains on certain equity investments, as well as $857,000 of depreciation and amortization and $766,000 of non-cash stock compensation.
Additionally, our accounts receivable decreased by $5.4 million due to the variability in the timing of shipments and our prepaid expenses and deferred
income taxes decreased by $494,000 and $264,000, respectively. Offsetting this net inflow of cash, inventory increased by $3.5 million and our accounts
payable and accrued expenses and deferred revenue decreased by $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
Cash used in operating activities totaled $847,000 during fiscal 2022. Our net income was $4.6 million and included $931,000 of unrealized gains
on certain equity investments, as well as non-cash stock compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense in the amount of $1.3 million
and $726,000, respectively. Additionally, our accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $2.0 million. Offsetting these inflows of cash, our
accounts receivable and inventory balances grew by $4.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively.
22
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2023 was $885,000. During the 2023 fiscal year, we made capital expenditures in the amount of
$974,000 primarily for the Franklin Property and we received proceeds of $89,000 from the sales of marketable equity securities.
Net cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2022 was $1.2 million and related primarily to $1.6 million in purchases of equipment and
improvements as well as the purchase of $334,000 of marketable equity securities, offset by $770,000 in proceeds from sales of marketable equity
securities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for fiscal 2023 totaled $2.5 million and included $809,000 in net principal payments of various notes payable
to MBT more fully described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report, and $1.5 million related to the
repurchase of 86,422 shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase program, as well as payment of $223,000 of employee payroll taxes
related to the award of 37,500 shares of common stock to employees under previously granted performance awards.
Net cash used in financing activities for fiscal 2022 totaled $790,000 and related primarily to the $1.6 million repurchase of 75,250 shares of our
common stock pursuant to our share repurchase program, as well as $1.2 million of principal payments primarily related to our various loans from MBT
offset by the $2.0 million in new borrowings from MBT more fully described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this
report.
Liquidity Requirements for the Next 12 Months
As of June 30, 2023, our working capital was $21.3 million. We currently believe that our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, together
with our account receivable balances, and anticipated cash flows from operations will provide us sufficient funds to satisfy our cash requirements as our
business is currently conducted for at least the next 12 months. In addition to our cash and cash equivalent balances, we expect to derive a portion of our
liquidity from our cash flows from operations. We may also liquidate some or all of our investment portfolio or borrow further against our $7.0 million
Amended Revolving Loan with MBT (see Note 8 to condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report), under which we had
availability of $4.5 million as of June 30, 2023.
We are focused on preserving our cash balances by monitoring expenses, identifying cost savings, and investing only in those development
programs and products that we believe will most likely contribute to our profitability. As we execute our current strategy, however, we may require debt
and/or equity capital to fund our working capital needs and requirements for capital equipment to support our manufacturing and inspection processes. In
particular, we have experienced negative operating cash flow in the past, especially as we procure long-lead time materials to satisfy our backlog, which
can be subject to extensive variability. We believe that if we need additional capital to fund our operations, we can borrow against our revolving loan with
MBT.
Surplus Capital Investment Policy
During fiscal 2013, our Board approved a Surplus Capital Investment Policy (the “Policy”) that provides, among other items, for the following:
(a) Determination by our Board of Directors of (i) our surplus capital balance and (ii) the portion of such surplus capital balance
to be invested according to the Policy;
(b) Selection of an Investment Committee responsible for implementing the Policy; and
(c) Objectives and criteria under which investments may be made.
The Investment Committee is comprised of Messrs. Swenson (Chair), Cabillot, and Van Kirk. Both Mr. Cabillot and Mr. Swenson are active
investors with extensive portfolio management expertise. We leverage the experience of these committee members to make investment decisions for the
investment of our surplus operating capital or borrowed funds. Additionally, many of our securities holdings include stocks of public companies that
either Messrs. Swenson or Cabillot or both may own from time to time either individually or through the investment funds that they manage, or other
companies whose boards they sit on. The Investment Committee approved each of the investments comprising the $8.8 million of investments consisting
of a warrant to purchase common stock of a publicly held company and marketable public equity securities held at June 30, 2023, which amount includes
unrealized holding gains in the amount of $6.1 million at June 30, 2023.
23
In December 2019, our Board approved a new share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to one million shares of our common
stock, as the prior repurchase plan, authorized by our Board in 2013, authorizing the repurchase of 750,000 shares of common stock was nearing
completion. In accordance with, and as part of, these share repurchase programs, our Board has approved the adoption of several prearranged share
repurchase plans intended to qualify for the safe harbor Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“10b5-1 Plan” or “Plan”).
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 86,422 shares at an aggregate cost, inclusive of fees under the Plan, of $1.5 million.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 75,250 shares at an aggregate cost, inclusive of fees under the Plan, of $1.6 million. On a
cumulative basis, we have repurchased a total of 1,197,168 shares under the share repurchase programs at an aggregate cost, inclusive of fees under the
Plan, of $17.2 million. All repurchases under the 10b5-1 Plans were administered through an independent broker.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors
Pro-Dex, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pro-Dex Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated
income statements, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated
financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the
Company as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
June 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements
As described in Note 2, the Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022, and for the years ended June 30, 2022 and
2021, for the correction of errors.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the
applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain
an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or
fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was
communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated
financial statements, and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not
alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below,
providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
26
Warrant Valuation
As described in Notes 2 and Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company holds a warrant to purchase common stock of a publicly traded
company, which has an estimated fair value of $6,160,000 at June 30, 2023 and resulted in an unrealized gain of $3,856,000 during the year ended June 30,
2023. The warrant was determined to be a derivative financial instrument that is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date with changes in fair
value recognized in earnings.
We identified the valuation of the warrant as a critical audit matter. See also the “Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements” section of our
report. The estimated fair value of the warrant was determined using a Black Scholes Option Pricing (“BSOP”) model. The principal considerations for our
determination that auditing the estimated fair value of the warrant is a critical audit matter are (i) the judgment required by management in the
determination of the significant assumptions used, including the underlying stock price, strike price of the warrant, volatility, risk-free rate, discount for
lack of marketability and time-to-maturity (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit
evidence related to the significant assumptions used in the BSOP model; and (iii) the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
reading the agreements and evaluating management’s process for determining the estimated fair value of the warrant.
testing management’s process included (i) evaluating the method used by management to determine the estimated fair
value of the warrant; (ii) testing the mathematical accuracy of management’s model; (iii) evaluating the reasonableness of
the significant assumptions used in the model and (iv) testing the completeness and accuracy of the data used.
professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating the appropriateness of the BSOP
model used by management to determine the estimated fair value of the warrant, and evaluating whether the significant
assumptions used in the BSOP model were reasonable.

1.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
We specialize in the design, development and manufacture of autoclavable, battery-powered and electric, multi-function surgical drivers and
shavers used primarily in the orthopedic, thoracic, and craniomaxillofacial markets. We have patented adaptive torque-limiting technology and proprietary
sealing solutions which appeal to our customers, primarily medical device distributors. We also manufacture and sell rotary air motors to a wide range of
industries.
In August 2020, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary, PDEX Franklin, LLC (“PDEX Franklin”), to hold title for an approximate 25,000 square
foot industrial building in Tustin, California (the “Franklin Property”) that we acquired on November 6, 2020, in order to allow for the continued growth of
our business. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and PDEX Franklin and all significant inter-company accounts
and transactions have been eliminated. This subsidiary has no separate operations.
2.
RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and as of and for the first
three quarters of fiscal 2021, 2022 and 2023. The restatement corrects the error related to the fair value of the Monogram Warrant which had been
understated (See Note 5). The restatement records the investment at its estimated fair value for all restated periods, records the unrealized gain on
investments for each restated period, and records the deferred income tax expense associated with the corresponding unrealized gain on investments. The
restatement does not impact previously reported revenues, operating income, cash or cash flows for any previous periods.
Presented below are the changes to each financial statement line item which changed as a result of the restatement.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist the reader in understanding our consolidated financial
statements. Such consolidated financial statements and related notes are the representations of management, who is responsible for their integrity and
objectivity. In the opinion of management, these accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“U.S. GAAP”) in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Net Sales
Net sales consists of the sale of products and services, as well as shipping and handling costs billed to our customers and is net of volume rebates
and discounts and excludes sales tax.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from product sales is recognized as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards
Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers once our contract(s) with a customer and the performance obligations in the contract
have been identified, and the transaction price has been allocated to the performance obligations and revenue is recorded when (or as) we satisfy each
performance obligation, generally upon shipment.
Revenue from services, typically non-recurring engineering services related to the design or customization of a medical device, is typically
recognized over time. The customer funding for costs incurred for non-recurring engineering services is deferred and subsequently recognized as revenue
as under-lying products or services are delivered to the customers. Additionally, expenses incurred, up to the customer agreed funding amount, are deferred
as an asset and recognized as cost of sales when the under-lying products or services are delivered to the customer. The deferred customer funding and
costs result in recognition of deferred costs (asset) and deferred revenue (liability) on our consolidated balance sheets.
One of our customer contracts can give rise to variable consideration due to volume rebates. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely
amount we will receive from our customer. Our estimates of variable consideration are based on an assessment of our anticipated performance and all
information (historical, current, and forecasted) that is reasonably available to us.
Returns of our product for credit are minimal; accordingly, we do not establish a reserve for product returns at the time of sale.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists primarily of the purchase price of goods and cost of services rendered including freight costs. Cost of sales also includes
production labor and overhead costs for all of our manufacturing and assembly operations, which overhead includes all indirect labor and expenses
associated with our inspection, warehousing, material planning and quality departments.
Estimated Losses on Product Development Services
Cost and revenue estimates related to the product development service portions of development and supply contracts are reviewed and updated
quarterly. An expected loss on development service contracts is recognized immediately in cost of sales. Losses recorded in fiscal 2023 and 2022 related to
these services totaled $108,000 and $0, respectively.
Owing to the complexity of many of the contracts we have undertaken, the cost estimation process requires significant judgment. It is based upon
the knowledge and experience of our project managers, engineers, and finance professionals. Factors that are considered in estimating the cost of work to
be completed and ultimate profitability of the fixed price product development portion of development and supply contracts include the nature and
complexity of the work to be performed, availability and productivity of labor, the effect of change orders, the availability of materials, performance of
subcontractors, and expected costs for specific regulatory approvals.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Warranties
Certain of our products are sold with a warranty that provides for repairs or replacement of any defective parts for a period, generally one to two
years, after the sale. At the time of the sale, we accrue an estimate of the cost of providing the warranty based on prior experience with such factors as
return rates and repair costs, which factors are reviewed quarterly.
The warranty accrual is based on historical costs of warranty repairs and expected future identifiable warranty expenses and is included in accrued
expenses in the accompanying balance sheets. Warranty expenses are included in cost of sales in the accompanying statements of operations. Changes in
estimates to previously established warranty accruals result from current period updates to assumptions regarding repair costs and warranty return rates and
are included in current period warranty expense.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash
equivalents consisted of investments in money market funds.
Accounts Receivable
Trade receivables are stated at their original invoice amounts, less an allowance for doubtful portions of such accounts. Management determines
the allowance for doubtful accounts based on facts and circumstances related to specific accounts and the age of accounts. Trade receivables are written off
when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously reserved are offset against the allowance when received.
Deferred Costs
Deferred costs reflect costs incurred related to non-recurring engineering services under the terms of the related development and/or supply
contracts. These costs get recorded to cost of sales in the period that the revenue is recognized.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Cost includes materials, labor, and manufacturing
overhead related to the purchase and production of inventories. Reductions to estimated market value are recorded and charged to cost of sales, when
indicated based on a formula that compares on-hand quantities to both historical usage and estimated demand over the ensuing 12 months from the
measurement date. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate inventory for obsolescence and slow-moving items. This evaluation includes analysis of historical
sales and usage, existing demand, as well as specific factors known to management. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there was approximately $637,000 and
$177,000, respectively, of inventory in-transit from suppliers.
Investments
Investments at June 30, 2023 and 2022, consist of marketable equity securities of publicly held companies as well as a warrant to purchase
common stock of a company whose common stock first became publicly traded in May 2023. The investments were made to realize a reasonable return,
although there is no assurance that positive returns will be realized. Investments are marked to market at each measurement date, with unrealized gains and
losses presented separately within other income and expense on the consolidated income statement. Certain investments consist of common stocks of
public companies that are thinly traded. These investments were subject to a valuation analysis as of June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Long-lived Assets
We review the recoverability of long-lived assets, consisting of the land and building that we own, equipment, and improvements, including
leasehold improvements, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate carrying values may not be recoverable.
Our building, equipment and improvements are recorded at historical cost and depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
following periods:
Building
Equipment
Improvements
Thirty years
Three to ten years
Shorter of the remaining life of the underlying building, lease term, or the
asset’s estimated useful life
43
PRO-DEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Intangibles
Intangibles consist of legal fees incurred in connection with patent applications. Our patent costs are being amortized over a period of four to
seven years. The expense associated with the amortization of the patent costs is recognized in research and development costs.
Income Taxes
We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and
liabilities along with net operating losses and tax credit carryovers. Net deferred tax assets or liabilities at both June 30, 2023 and 2022 consisted primarily
of basis differences related to unrealized gain/loss related to investments, stock-based compensation, fixed assets, accrued expenses, and inventories. Our
fiscal 2023 deferred tax assets also includes capitalization of our research expenditures as prescribed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, the recoverability of deferred tax assets, and the
extinguishment of deferred tax liabilities. Such determination is based on historical taxable income, with consideration given to estimates of future taxable
income and the periods over which deferred tax assets will be recoverable and deferred tax liabilities will be extinguished. We record a valuation allowance
against deferred tax assets to reduce the net carrying value to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. When we establish or reduce
the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, the provision for income taxes will increase or decrease, respectively, in the period such determination
is made.
Uncertain Tax Positions
We record uncertain tax positions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 on the basis of a two-step process whereby
(1) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position, and (2) for
those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent
likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
Shipping and Handling
Payments from customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales. Shipping expenses, consisting primarily of payments made to freight
companies, are included in cost of sales.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, and trade receivables. We place our
cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, and throughout the fiscal years then ended, we had deposits in
excess of federally insured limits. Credit sales are made to medical device distributors, original equipment manufacturers, and resellers throughout the
world, and sales to such customers account for a substantial portion of our trade receivables. While such receivables are not collateralized, we evaluate their
collectability based on several factors including customers’ payment histories.
Compensation Plans
We recognize compensation expense for the share-based awards that vest subject to market conditions under ASC 718, Compensation-Stock
Compensation by estimating their fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model is affected by
assumptions regarding a number of complex judgments including expected stock price volatility, risk free interest rates, and the forecasted future value and
trading volume of our stock. The awards are considered granted for accounting purposes on the date the awards were approved by the Compensation
Committee of our Board of Directors and we recognize compensation expense, based on the estimated fair value of the award, on a straight-line basis over
the requisite service period.
44
PRO-DEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Our operations are affected by numerous factors including market acceptance of our products, supply chain disruptions, changes in technologies,
and new laws, effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, government regulations, and policies. We cannot predict what impact, if any, the occurrence of these
or other events might have on our operations. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include, but are not limited to, revenue
recognition, share-based compensation, the allowance for doubtful accounts, accrued warranty expense, investments, inventory valuation, the carrying
value of long-lived assets, and the recoverability/extinguishment of deferred income tax assets and liabilities.
Basic and Diluted Per Share Information
Basic per share amounts are computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period presented.
Diluted per share amounts assume the issuance of all potential common stock equivalents, consisting of outstanding stock options and performance awards
as discussed in Note 13, unless the effect of such exercise is to increase income, or decrease loss, per common share.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is measured based on the prices that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair
value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices
in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists,
therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is considered to be representative of their fair values based on the
short-term nature of these instruments. As such, cash and cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
Investments: Investments consist of marketable equity securities of publicly held companies as well as a warrant to purchase outstanding stock of
a publicly traded company. Due to the thinly traded nature of these stocks and the lack of an active market for the warrant, all of our investments are
classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the warrant is measured using pricing models with no observable inputs and
is therefore considered a Level 3 measurement within the valuation hierarchy. The fair value of all of our investments at June 30, 2023 and 2022 was based
upon a valuation analysis.
Although the methods above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of the net realizable value or reflective of future fair
values, we believe our valuation methods are appropriate.
Advertising
Advertising costs are charged to selling or general and administrative expense as incurred and amounted to $4,000 and $1,000 for the fiscal years
ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Recently Issued and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial
Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 revises the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used
incurred loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of losses on financial instruments, including, but not limited to, available for sale
debt securities and accounts receivable. The guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2022 and
interim reporting periods within that annual reporting period. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the
consolidated financial statements.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in billed accounts receivables, unbilled receivables (presented as deferred
costs on our consolidated balance sheets) and customer advances and deposits (presented as deferred revenue on our consolidated balance sheets), where
applicable. Amounts are generally billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed upon milestones. The over-time revenue recognition model consists
of non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) and prototype services and typically relates to NRE services related to the evaluation, design or customization of a
medical device and is typically recognized over time utilizing an input measure of progress based on costs incurred compared to the estimated total costs
upon completion. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded $1.0 million and $98,000, respectively, of revenue that had been
included in deferred revenue in the prior year. The revenue recognized from the contract liabilities consisted of satisfying our performance obligations
during the normal course of business.

Marketable equity securities at June 30, 2023 and 2022 had an aggregate cost basis of $2,714,000 and $2,796,000, respectively. Both current and
long-term marketable equity securities include equity securities of public companies that are thinly traded. We classified certain investments as long term in
nature because even if we decide to sell the stocks we may not be able to sell our position within one year. At June 30, 2023, the investments included net
unrealized losses of $219,000 (gross unrealized losses of $286,000 offset by gross unrealized gains of $67,000). At June 30, 2022, the investments included
net unrealized losses of $262,000 (gross unrealized losses of $369,000 offset by gross unrealized gains of $107,000).
Of the total marketable equity securities at June 30, 2023 and 2022, $1,134,000 and $755,000, respectively, represent an investment in the
common stock of Air T, Inc. Two of our Board members, Messrs. Swenson and Cabillot, are also board members of Air T, Inc. and both either individually
or through affiliates own an equity interest in Air T, Inc. Mr. Swenson, our Chairman, also serves as the chief executive officer and chairman of Air T, Inc.
Another of our Board members is employed by Air T as its Chief of Staff. The shares have been purchased through 10b5-1 Plans that, in accordance with
our internal policies regarding the approval of related-party transactions, were approved by our then three Board members that are not affiliated with Air T,
Inc.
The warrant represents our right to purchase up to 5% of the outstanding stock of Monogram Orthopaedics Inc. (“Monogram”) which we were
granted on December 18, 2018. By way of background, we invested in Monogram, a medical device start-up specializing in precision, patient specific
implants in fiscal 2017, by making an $800,000 loan to Monogram pursuant to a promissory note in the same amount. At that time, our Chief Executive
Officer, Mr. Van Kirk, was appointed to Monogram’s board of directors, a position he has held through the date of this filing. We impaired our entire
$800,000 investment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 due to indications that Monogram had exhausted its cash and had been unable to obtain additional
financing to enable continued research to commercialize their technology. In fiscal 2019, we modified the promissory note to allow Monogram more time
to re-pay the note and, concurrently, we were issued the warrant, with an exercise price of $1,250,000, which at the time we deemed of de minimis value.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, Monogram repaid the promissory note with interest, but at that time and through the end of the third quarter of
fiscal 2023, we considered the warrant to be of little value and therefore did not record it as an investment on our consolidated balance sheet. In May of
2023, Monogram raised funds through a Regulation A+ offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and contemporaneously converted all
of its outstanding preferred stock to common shares and publicly listed its common shares on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol MGRM. The valuation
of the warrant for all prior periods is the subject of the restatement of our previous financial statements because the value of $0 we had ascribed to the
Monogram Warrant in previous periods want not based on its estimated fair value (See Note 2).

At June 30, 2023 and 2022, the warrant was exercisable into a total of 1,823,058 and 783,386 shares of Monogram’s outstanding stock. The
estimated fair value of the warrant at June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $6,160,000 and $2,304,000, respectively, using a Black-Scholes valuation model with the

On November 6, 2020, we acquired the Franklin Property for a total purchase price of $6.5 million, of which we paid $1.3 million in cash and the
balance of $5.2 million we financed through Minnesota Bank & Trust (“MBT”) (see Note 8). We substantially completed the build-out of the property in
the first quarter of fiscal 2022. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 we substantially completed all of our validation activities, and we moved our repairs and
assembly departments to the new facility. The building is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 30 years.

Patent-related costs consist of legal fees incurred in connection with both patent applications and patent issuances, and will be amortized over the
estimated life of the product(s) that is or will be utilizing the technology, or expensed immediately in the event the patent office denies the issuance of the
patent. During fiscal 2022, we impaired $84,000 of previously capitalized legal fees due to uncertainty relating to future benefit. This impairment expense
was included in research and development costs in our consolidated income statement. Future amortization expense is estimated to be no more than
$30,000 per year and all remaining costs are expected to be fully amortized within three years.

Realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. As of June 30,
2023, our deferred tax asset valuation allowance primarily consists and the state net operating loss carryforwards for states in which we have filed a final
return. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a net decrease to our valuation allowance of $7,000 on the basis of management’s reassessment
of the amount of our deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of June 30, 2023, we did not have any net operating losses for federal and state income tax purposes for state jurisdictions in which we
currently operate. We have no federal or state research and development and alternative minimum tax credit carry forwards at June 30, 2023.
As of June 30, 2023, we have accrued $345,000 of unrecognized tax benefits related to federal and state income tax matters that would reduce our
income tax expense if recognized. If we are eventually able to recognize our uncertain tax positions, our effective tax rate would be reduced. Any
adjustment to our uncertain tax positions would result in an adjustment of our tax credit carryforwards rather than resulting in a cash outlay.
Information with respect to our accrual for unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands):
Unrecognized tax benefits:
Beginning balance
Additions based on federal tax positions related to the current year
Additions based on state tax positions related to the current year
Additions (reductions) for tax positions of prior years

Although it is reasonably possible that certain unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease within the next twelve months due to tax
examinations, settlement activities, expirations of statute of limitations, or the impact on recognition and measurement considerations related to the results
of published tax cases or other similar activities, we do not anticipate any significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months.
We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense when applicable. As of June 30, 2023,
$45,000 of interest applicable to our unrecognized tax benefits have been accrued.
We are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of California, Colorado, and Massachusetts. We are currently open to audit under
the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended June 30, 2020, and later. However, because of our prior net operating losses
and research credit carryovers, our tax years from June 30, 2008, are open to audit.

NOTES PAYABLE AND FINANCING TRANSACTIONS
Minnesota Bank & Trust
On November 6, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), PDEX Franklin, a newly created wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, purchased the Franklin
Property. A portion of the purchase price was financed by a loan from MBT to PDEX Franklin in the principal amount of approximately $5.2 million (the
“Property Loan”) pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, between PDEX Franklin and MBT (the “Property Loan Agreement”) and
corresponding Term Note (the “Property Note”) issued by PDEX Franklin in favor of MBT on the Closing Date. The Property Loan is secured by the
Franklin Property pursuant to a Deed of Trust with Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing in favor of MBT (the “Deed”)
and by an Assignment of Leases and Rents by PDEX Franklin in favor of MBT (the “Rents Assignment”). We paid loan origination fees to MBT on the
Closing Date in the amount of $26,037.
The Property Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.55% per annum, which is subject to a 3% increase upon an event of default. Accrued interest
was paid on December 1, 2020, and both principal and interest in the amount of approximately $30,000 are due and payable on the first day of each
subsequent month until the maturity date of November 1, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time a balloon payment in the amount of $3.1 million is
due. Any prepayment of the Property Loan (other than monthly scheduled interest and principal payments), is subject to a prepayment fee equal to 4% of
the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the first or second year, 3% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during
the third or fourth year, 2% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the fifth or sixth year, and 1% of the principal amount prepaid
for any prepayment made during the seventh or eighth year. The Property Loan Agreement, Property Note, Deed, and Rents Assignment each contain
representations, warranties, covenants, and events of default that are customary for a loan of this type. The balance owed on the Property Loan at June 30,
2023 is $4,746,000.
52
PRO-DEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On the Closing Date, we also entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with MBT (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), providing
for a $7,525,000 amended and restated term loan (the “Term Loan A”), a $1,000,000 term loan (the “Term Loan B”), and a $2,000,000 amended and
restated revolving loan (the “Revolving Loan” and, together with the Term Loan A and the Term Loan B, collectively, the “Loans”), evidenced by an
Amended and Restated Term Note A (“Term Note A”), a Term Note B, and an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “Revolving Note”) made
by us in favor of MBT. The Loans are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a Security Agreement entered into on September 6,
2018 between the Company and MBT. The Term Note A had an outstanding principal balance of $3,770,331 as of the Closing Date and could be borrowed
against through May 30, 2021 (the “Commitment Period”). During the third quarter ended March 31, 2021, we borrowed an additional $3,000,000 against
Term Note A for the purpose of repurchasing our common stock as described in Note 13. The Term Note B had a zero balance as of the Closing Date and
we borrowed the full $1,000,000 during the third quarter ended March 31, 2021, for the purpose of making improvements to the Franklin property
described in Note 4.
The Term Loan A matures on November 1, 2027 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.84% per annum. Initial payments on the Term Loan A of
interest only were due on December 1, 2020 through June 1, 2021. Commencing July 1, 2021 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until
the maturity date, we are required to make payments of principal and interest on Term Loan A of approximately $97,000 plus any additional accrued and
unpaid interest through the date of payment. The balance owed on Term Loan A as of June 30, 2023, is $4,832,000.
The Term Loan B matures on November 1, 2027 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.84% per annum. Initial payments on the Term Loan B of
interest only were due on December 1, 2020 through June 1, 2021. Commencing July 1, 2021 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until
the maturity date, we are required to make payments of principal and interest on Term Loan B of approximately $15,000, plus any additional accrued and
unpaid interest through the date of payment. As of March 31, 2021, we had drawn fully against Term Note B and the balance outstanding on Term Note B
was $719,000 on June 30, 2023.
On December 29, 2022 (the “Amendment Date”), we entered into Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the
“Amendment”) with MBT, which amends the Amended Credit Agreement and provides for a supplemental line of credit in the amount of $3,000,000 (the
“Supplemental Loan”). The Supplemental Loan is evidenced by a Supplemental Revolving Credit Note (the “Supplemental Note”) made by us in favor of
MBT. The purpose of the Supplemental Loan is for financing acquisitions and repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Supplemental Loan may be
borrowed against from time to time through its maturity date of December 29, 2024, on the terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement. As of June
30, 2023, no amounts have been drawn against the Supplemental Loan.
The Revolving Loan was also amended (the “Amended Revolving Loan”) in connection with the Amendment to extend the maturity date from
November 5, 2023 to December 29, 2024, to increase the Revolving Loan facility from $2,000,000 to $7,000,000, and to increase the interest rate on the
Revolving Loan (as described below), evidenced by an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “Amended Revolving Note”) made by us in
favor of MBT. The Amended Revolving Loan may be borrowed against from time to time by us through its maturity date on the terms set forth in the
Amended Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2023, we had drawn $2,500,000 against the Amended Revolving Loan. Loan origination fees in the amount of
$16,000 were paid to MBT in conjunction with the Amended Revolving Loan and the Supplemental Loan.
The Amended Revolving Loan and Supplemental Loan bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 5.0% or (b) SOFR for a one-month
period from the website of the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 2.5% (the “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate”). Commencing on the first day
of each month after we initially borrow against the Amended Revolving Loan and/or the Supplemental Loan and each month thereafter until maturity, we
are required to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the Amended Revolving Loan and Supplemental Loan through the date of payment. Any principal on
the Amended Revolving Loan and/or Supplemental Loan that is not previously prepaid shall be due and payable in full on the maturity date (or earlier
termination of the Amended Revolving Loan and/or Supplemental Loan).

PRO-DEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Any payment on the Term Loan A, the Term Loan B, the Amended Revolving Loan or the Supplemental Loan (collectively, the “Loans”) not
made within seven days after the due date is subject to a late payment fee equal to 5% of the overdue amount. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an event of default, the interest rate of all Loans will be increased by 3% and MBT may, at its option, declare all of the Loans immediately
due and payable in full.
The Amended Credit Agreement, Amended Security Agreement, Term Note A, Term Note B, Amended Revolving Note and Supplemental Note
contain representations and warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default that are customary for loans of this type. We
believe that we are in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of June 30, 2023, but there can be no assurance that we will remain in compliance for
the duration of the term of these loans.

2027. Our corporate office lease requires us to pay insurance, taxes, and other expenses related to the leased space.
Rent expense in fiscal 2023 and 2022 was $563,000 and $559,000, respectively.
Compensation Arrangements
Retirement Savings 401(k) Plan
The Pro-Dex, Inc. Retirement Savings 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) is a defined contribution plan we administer that covers substantially all
our employees and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Employees are eligible to participate
in the 401(k) Plan when they have attained 19 years of age and then can enter into the 401(k) Plan on the first day of each calendar quarter. Participants are
eligible to receive non-discretionary matching contributions by the Company equal to 25% of their contributions up to 5% of eligible compensation through
December 15, 2022 and 50% of their contributions up to 5% of eligible compensation thereafter. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we
recognized compensation expense amounting to $164,000 and $72,000, respectively, in connection with the 401(k) Plan. During our fiscal years ended
June 30, 2023 and 2022, we used approximately $13,000 and $25,000, respectively, of forfeited match contributions to reduce our match expense.
Legal Matters
We may be involved in legal proceedings arising either in the ordinary course of our business or incidental to our business. There can be no
certainty, however, that we may not ultimately incur liability or that such liability will not be material or adverse.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock Option Plans
Through 2014, we had two equity compensation plans, the Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “Employee Stock Option
Plan”) and the Amended and Restated 2004 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Directors’ Stock Option Plan”) (collectively, the “Former Stock Option
Plans”). The Employee Stock Option Plan and Director’s Stock Option Plan were terminated in June 2014 and December 2014, respectively.
In September 2016, our Board approved the establishment of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, which was approved by our shareholders at our 2016
Annual Meeting. The 2016 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the award of up to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock in the form of incentive stock
options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted stock units, performance awards, and other stock-based awards.
Former Stock Option Plans
No options were granted under the Former Stock Option Plans during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. As of June 30, 2023, there
was no unrecognized compensation cost under the Former Stock Option Plans and all remaining outstanding stock options were exercised during fiscal
2023.

In December 2017, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors granted 200,000 performance awards to our employees under the 2016
Equity Incentive Plan, which upon vesting will generally be paid in shares of our common stock. Whether any performance awards vest, and the amount
that does vest, is tied to the completion of service periods that range from 7 months to 9.5 years at inception and the achievement of our common stock
trading at certain pre-determined prices. The weighted-average fair value of the performance awards granted was $4.46, calculated using the weighted-
average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation. In February 2020, the Compensation Committee reallocated 48,000 previously
forfeited awards, having the same remaining terms and conditions, to certain current employees. The weighted average fair value of the performance
awards granted in fiscal 2020 was $16.90, calculated using the weighted-average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation. In
December 2021, the Compensation Committee reallocated an additional 17,500 previously forfeited awards, having the same remaining terms and
conditions, to other employees. The weighted average fair value of the performance awards reallocated in 2021 was $20.34, calculated using the weighted
average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation. We recorded share-based compensation expense of $106,000 and $194,000 for
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to these performance awards. On June 30, 2023, there was approximately $98,000 of
unrecognized compensation cost related to these non-vested performance awards expected to be expensed over the weighted-average period of 2.0 years.
On July 1, 2022, it was determined by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors that the vesting of performance awards for 37,500
shares of common stock had been achieved. Each participant elected a net issuance to cover their individual withholding taxes and therefore we issued
23,641 shares and paid $223,000 of participant-related payroll tax liabilities.

Non-Qualified Stock Options
In December 2020, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors granted 310,000 non-qualified stock options to our directors and
certain employees under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. Whether any stock options vest, and the amount that does vest, is tied to the completion of service
periods that range from 18 months to 10.5 years at inception and the achievement of our common stock trading at certain pre-determined prices. We
recorded compensation expense of $647,000 and $1,070,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to these options. The
weighted average fair value of the stock option awards granted was $16.72, calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. As of June 30, 2023, there was
approximately $2.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to these non-vested non-qualified stock options.
In February 2021, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors granted 62,000 non-qualified stock options to our directors and certain
employees under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. Whether any stock options vest, and the amount that does vest, was tied to the completion of service
periods that ranged from 4 months to 1.3 years at inception and the achievement of our common stock trading at certain pre-determined prices. Of these
62,000 stock options, 57,750 vested on July 1, 2021, as our common stock met the pre-determined prices set forth in the underlying agreements. We
recorded compensation expense of $182,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 related to these options. The weighted average fair value of the stock
option awards granted was $3.16, calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. In December 2021 the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors
granted, 5,000 previously forfeited non-qualified stock options to another employee.

In September 2014, our Board approved the establishment of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP conforms to the
provisions of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code, has coterminous offering and purchase periods of six months, and bases the pricing at which
participant’s purchase shares of our common stock on a formula so as to result in a per share purchase price that approximates a 15% discount from the
market price of a share of our common stock at the end of the purchase period. Our Board of Directors also approved the provision that shares formerly
reserved for issuance under the Former Stock Option Plans in excess of shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options, aggregating 704,715 shares, be
reserved for issuance pursuant to the ESPP. The ESPP was approved by our shareholders at our 2014 Annual Meeting. On February 2, 2015, the Company
filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 registering the 704,715 shares issuable under the ESPP under the Securities Act of 1933.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, shares totaling 5,459 and 2,576, respectively, were purchased pursuant to the ESPP and
allocated to participating employees based upon their contributions at weighted- average prices of $14.21 and $23.33, respectively. On a cumulative basis,
since the inception of the ESPP, employees have purchased a total of 32,498 shares. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded
stock compensation expense in the amount of $14,000 and $11,000, respectively, relating to the ESPP.

In December 2019, our Board approved a new share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to one million shares of our common
stock, as the prior repurchase plan authorized by our Board in 2013 was nearing completion. In accordance with, and as part of, these shares repurchase
programs, our Board approved the adoption of several prearranged share repurchase plans intended to qualify for the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b5-1
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“10b5-1 Plan” or “Plan”). During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 86,422
shares at an aggregate cost, inclusive of fees under the Plan, of $1.5 million. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 75,250 shares at
an aggregate cost, inclusive of fees under the Plan, of $1.6 million. On a cumulative basis, we have repurchased a total of 1,197,168 shares under the share
repurchase programs at an aggregate cost, inclusive of fess under the Plan, of $17.2 million. All repurchases under the 10b5-1 Plans were administered
through an independent broker.

ITEM 9.
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer and principal accounting
officer) have concluded, based on their evaluation as of June 30, 2023, that the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) were not effective at a reasonable assurance
level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us
in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate “internal control over financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)
under the Exchange Act). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, principal financial
officer, and principal accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the
framework set forth in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission in May 2013. Based on this evaluation, and as a result of the material weakness described below, our management concluded that our internal
control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2023.
Our internal control over financial reporting is supported by written policies and procedures that:
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of our Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our
management and directors; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that apply to certain smaller
reporting companies that permit us to provide only management’s attestation in this annual report.
Material Weakness
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual and interim financial statements will not be detected or prevented on a timely basis.
In connection with preparing our financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023, and evaluating the fair value of one of our investments, we
re-evaluated the guidance in ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging and determined upon reassessment that the historical de minimis values we assigned
to the Monogram Warrant were incorrect. We have determined that there is a deficiency in the design of the Company’s internal control relating to the
valuation and disclosure of level 3 financial instruments, including the valuation of warrant derivative instruments. As a result, we have concluded that the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the end of each of the periods covered by the restatement. In connection with the
restatement, the Company has identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to its investment in the Monogram Warrant.
60
Remediation Measures
Management is committed to implementing changes to our internal control over financial reporting to ensure our material weakness is remediated.
To remediate this material weakness, we are in the process of improving the design of our control related to to the valuation and disclosure of level 3
financial instruments. Management believes the control will prevent the conditions that led to the material weakness described above.
While the foregoing measures are intended to effectively remediate the material weakness described in Item 9A, and these procedures will be
applied to any future warrant, derivative or other level 3 instrument we receive, it is possible that additional remediation steps will be necessary. As such, as
we continue to evaluate and implement our plan to remediate the material weakness, our management may decide to take additional measures to address
the material weakness. The material weakness cannot be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a period of time and management
has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We plan to continue to perform additional analyses and other procedures to
help ensure that our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as discussed above, during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as
defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
controls over financial reporting.

Description of the Company’s Common Stock
Registered Pursuant to Section 12 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
EXHIBIT 4.1
The following summary of Pro-Dex, Inc.’s common stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference
to our Articles of Incorporation, as amended (“Articles of Incorporation”), and Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”). For a complete description of
the terms and provisions of our capital stock, including our common stock, refer to the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws, which are filed as exhibits
to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
General
As of September 6, 2023, our authorized capital stock consists of (i) 50,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share, and (ii)
10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value per share. As of September 6, 2023, 3,547,330 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding and
no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding. Our common stock is our only class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.
Common Stock
The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of our
shareholders, including the election of directors, and do not have cumulative voting rights. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding
of our preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends, if any, as may be declared by our Board of Directors out of
legally available funds. Subject to the rights of any outstanding preferred stock, upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of
common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to our shareholders after the payment of all of our debts and
other liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund
provisions applicable to our common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
Our Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by our shareholders (other than such approval rights as may be granted to any
outstanding series of preferred stock), to designate and issue one or more series of preferred stock and to fix the rights, powers, preferences, qualifications,
limitations and restrictions of each series of preferred stock to the maximum extent permitted by Colorado law. The issuance of preferred stock could
decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of common stock or adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting
rights, of the holders of common stock. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock may also discourage or render more difficult attempts to
take control of the Company, as described in more detail below under “Anti-Takeover Provisions of Governing Documents.”
Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc. is the transfer agent for our common stock.
Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “PDEX”.
Anti-Takeover Provisions of Governing Documents
Our Bylaws require that our shareholders satisfy certain advance notice and other requirements in order to properly submit proposals or director
nominees for consideration at our annual meetings of shareholders.
As discussed above, our Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by our shareholders (other than such approval rights as may
be granted to any outstanding series of preferred stock), to designate and issue one or more series of preferred stock and to fix the rights, powers,
preferences, qualifications, limitations, and restrictions of each series of preferred stock to the maximum extent permitted by Colorado law. The existence
of authorized but unissued preferred stock may enable our Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of the
Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. Among other things, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, our Board
of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal is not in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders, our Board of Directors could cause
shares of preferred stock to be designated and issued without further shareholder approval in one or more private offerings or other transactions that might
dilute the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent shareholder or shareholder group.
THIS WARRANT HAS BEEN, AND THE SHARES OF STOCK WHICH MAY BE RECEIVED PURSUANT TO THE EXERCISE OF THIS
WARRANT WILL BE, ACQUIRED BY THE HOLDER HEREOF SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR FOR RESALE IN
CONNECTION WITH, ANY DISTRIBUTION THEREOF EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE “ACT”). WITHOUT LIMITATION TO THE OTHER RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF THIS WARRANT SET FORTH HEREIN, NEITHER
THIS WARRANT NOR SUCH SHARES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES
LAWS. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH
REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY THAT SUCH DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT AND ANY REGISTRATION
OR QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
EXHIBIT 10.31
Dated: December 20, 2018
MONOGRAM ORTHOPAEDICS INC.
WARRANT TO PURCHASE STOCK
MONOGRAM ORTHOPAEDICS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company"), for value received, hereby grants to PRO-DEX, INC. or its
permitted assigns (the “Holder”) this Warrant (this “Warrant”) to purchase from the Company the number Warrant Shares (as defined below) determined
in accordance with Section 2 below, for a price per Warrant Share equal to the Exercise Price (as defined below).
1. Definitions. As used herein:
(a) “Aggregate Exercise Price” means $1,250,000.
(b) “Warrant Shares” means Common Shares and, if applicable, Preferred Shares that this Warrant is exercisable for.
(c) “Common Shares” means shares of common stock (regardless of class or series) of the Company outstanding as of the date of exercise of this
Warrant.
(d) “Preferred Shares” means shares of preferred stock (regardless of class or series) of the Company outstanding as of the date of exercise of this
Warrant.
(e) “Exercise Price” means (A) if the Warrant Shares consist solely of Common Stock, then a price per each Warrant Share equal to the amount
obtained by dividing (x) $1,250,000 by (y) the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder and (B) if the Warrant Shares consist of both Common Stock
and Preferred Stock, then the Holder and the Company shall reasonably allocate the Aggregate Exercise Price on a per-share basis to each respective class
and series of Warrant Share.
(t) “Fully-Diluted Capitalization” means, as of any date and subject to Section 2(ii) below, the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such
date determined on a fully diluted basis assuming full conversion or exercise of all preferred stock and other convertible and exercisable securities then
outstanding (including outstanding options and warrants, but excluding this Warrant).
2. Number of Warrant Shares. The total number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be:
(i) Preferred Shares of each class or series of preferred stock of the Company outstanding on the date or dates of exercise, up to an aggregate amount
for each such class or series equal to five percent (5%) (calculated on a post-exercise basis) of the total issued and outstanding number of Preferred Shares
of such class or series; plus
(ii) Common Shares equal to five percent (5%) (calculated on a post-exercise basis) of the Fully-Diluted Capitalization as of the date or dates of
exercise; provided, that any Preferred Shares that this Warrant has been or may be exercised for, as of the time of calculation, shall be excluded for
purposes of determining Fully-Diluted Capitalization.
3. Exercise.
(a) This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section 8 below) by the
tender to the Company at its principal office of a notice of exercise in the form of Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”), duly completed and executed by or
on behalf of the Holder, together with the surrender of this Warrant and the payment to the Company of an amount equal to (x) the Exercise Price
multiplied by (y) the number of Warrant Shares being purchased, by wire transfer or certified, cashier's or other check acceptable to the Company and
payable to the order of the Company.
(b) In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to Section 3(a), if the fair market value of one Warrant Share is greater than the Exercise Price (at the
date of calculation as set forth below), the Holder may elect to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or of any portion of
this Warrant being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with a properly completed and executed Notice of
Exercise reflecting such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder that number of Warrant Shares computed using the following
formula:
X =
Y (A - B)
A
Where:
X
Y
A
B
= The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder
= The number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant Of, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the
portion of the Warrant being canceled (at the date of such calculation)
= The fair market value of one Warrant Share (at the date of such calculation)
= The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)
2
For purposes of the calculation above, the fair market value of one Warrant Share shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (the
“Board”) acting in good faith based on the then current enterprise value of the Company (without any discount for lack of control, lack of marketability or
any similar discount) as of the date of exercise and may, in the case of Preferred Shares, take into account all liquidation preferences and other senior rights
attaching to such Preferred Shares. The determination of the fair market value of each Warrant Share shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the
Holder. If the Company and the Holder cannot agree to the fair market value of each Warrant Share, the Company and the Holder shall submit such
determination to a business valuation expert. The cost of the business valuation expert shall be paid one-half by the Company and one-half by the Holder.
The determination of the business valuation shall be final and binding on the Company and the Holder, except in the case of manifest error.
(c) The rights under this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to have
been issued immediately prior to the close of business on the date this Warrant is exercised in accordance with its terms, and the person entitled to receive
the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on
such date. As promptly as reasonably practicable on or after such date, the Company shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the
same a certificate or certificates for that number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise. If the rights under this Warrant are exercised in part and
have not expired, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant reflecting the number of Warrant Shares that remain subject to this Warrant.
(d) The Holder may exercise this Warrant conditioned upon (and effective immediately prior to) consummation of any transaction that would cause the
expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8 by so indicating in the Notice of Exercise.
(e) In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the formula in Section 3(b) would result in a net positive number of Warrant Shares issuable to the
Holder, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised in full pursuant to Section 3(b) without any action on behalf
of the Holder.
4. Transfers; Preferred Share Documents.
(a) Neither this Warrant nor any Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise hereof may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, conveyed or otherwise
encumbered (each a “Transfer”), whole or part, except in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and, if applicable, the
terms of any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 4(b). The Company may condition consent to any such Transfer upon receipt of a written
acknowledgement of the transferee to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant. Without limiting the foregoing, the Holder acknowledges that
this Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and agrees that the
Holder shall not be permitted to Transfer this Warrant or any Warrant Shares issued upon its exercise in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act as to this Warrant or such Warrant Shares and registration or qualification of this Warrant and such Warrant Shares under any
applicable U.S. federal or state securities law then in effect, or (ii) an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company in its sole discretion, that such
registration and qualification are not required. Each certificate or other instrument for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear a
legend substantially to the foregoing effect.
3
(b) In connection with the Exercise of this Warrant for any Preferred Shares, the Holder shall be required to execute any deliver any agreements and
documents entered into among the holders of Preferred Shares generally, including any investors’ rights agreement, voting agreement or similar
investment-related agreements.
5. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through reorganization, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will
at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect
the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment.
6. Representations and Warranties of the Holder. This Warrant is issued to the Holder in reliance upon the following representations and warranties
made by the Holder to the Company:
(a) Acquired Entirely for Own Account. This Warrant is, and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant will be, acquired by the
Holder for investment for the Holder's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof except as
permitted by the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and that the Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
otherwise distributing the same. The Holder further represents that the Holder does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement
with any person to Transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to this Warrant or the Warrant Shares. The Holder has
not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities.
(b) Restricted Securities. The Holder understands that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the
Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona
fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Holder’s representations as expressed herein. The Holder understands that the Securities are
"restricted securities" under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Holder must hold the Warrant Shares
indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such
registration and qualification requirements is available. The Holder acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Warrant
Shares for resale. The Holder further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various
requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Warrant Shares, and on requirements relating to the
Company which are outside of the Holder's control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.
4
(c) No Public Market. The Holder understands that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company, and that the
Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Warrant Shares.
(d) Accredited Investor. The Holder is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 (a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
7. Lock-up Agreement. If requested by the Company or any underwriter in connection with an Initial Public Offering (as defined below), the Holder will
agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company (other than any
securities specifically in the registration for the Initial Public Offering) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriter, as the case
may be, for such period of time as may be requested by the Company or such underwriter, such period not to exceed (x) 180 days plus (y) such extension or
extensions as may be required by the underwriter in order to publish research reports while complying with the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority. The Holder agrees to execute such written agreements reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of Initial
Public Offering. In order to enforce the foregoing covenants, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the securities of the
Holder.
8. Termination. This Warrant (and the right to purchase Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof) shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of the following
(the “Expiration Date”): (i) the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date of this Warrant; (ii) the closing of an initial public offering of the Company's
securities (an “IPO”) or (iii) the consummation of a Deemed Liquidation Event. As used herein, a “Deemed Liquidation Event” means (a) if such term is
used and defined in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation as then in effect, the meaning given to such term and (b) if not, any of: (1) the acquisition of
a majority of the voting capital stock Company (or its successor by way of merger) by a third party or group of third parties, by means of any transaction or
series of related transactions, including any stock acquisition, reorganization, merger or consolidation (but excluding any sale of stock principally for bona
fide capital raising purposes, or a transaction or series of related transactions in which the holders of the voting securities of the Company outstanding
immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions continue to hold at least a majority o the voting power of the surviving or resulting
entity in substantially the same proportions); (2) a sale, lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
and its subsidiaries taken as a whole by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (except where such sale, lease or other disposition is to a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation); or (3) any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary.
5
9. Notices of Certain Transactions. In case of (i) a Deemed Liquidation Event; (ii) an IPO; (iii) the Company's common stock being listed on a securities
exchange or quoted on any inter-dealer quotation system; or (iv) any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Company's capital stock, then, and in
each such case, the Company will provide written notice to the Holder specifying, as the case may be, the effective date on which such Deemed Liquidation
Event, Public Offering, reorganization or reclassification is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of common
stock of the Company are to be determined. Such notice shall be given by the Company at least (x) 10 business days prior to the record date or effective
date for the event specified in such notice, or (y) if the record date or effective date is less than 10 business days from the date on which the Company
reasonably determines that the event will in fact occur, such lesser number of days.
10. Reservation of Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available sufficient number of shares of common stock and, if applicable,
preferred stock for issuance and delivery upon the exercise in full of this Warrant. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this
Warrant the number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and, if applicable, preferred stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise in full
of this Warrant, then the Company shall promptly take such corporate action as is necessary to increase the Company’s authorized but unissued shares of
common stock and, if applicable, preferred stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
11. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation oft his Warrant and (in the
case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an indemnity agreement (without any obligation for surety or bond), or (in the case of mutilation) upon
surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
12. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant and delivery of the Warrant Shares in respect thereof, the Holder shall not have or
exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.
13. No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of any fractional shares which
would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of one Warrant Share on
the date of exercise, as determined in accordance with Section 3(b).
14. Amendment or Waiver. No term of this Warrant may be amended or waived except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by the Company and
the Holder.
15. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting any provision of this
Warrant.
16. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect
to principles of conflicts of laws.
17. Survival of Representations. The warranties, representations and covenants of the parties contained in this Warrant shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Warrant.
18. Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted successors and
assigns of the parties. The terms and conditions of this Warrant shall be binding upon any purported successor, assignee or transferee of the Holder, this
Warrant or any Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that such purported succession, assignment or Transfer was not valid and is not recognized by the
Company. Nothing in this Warrant, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations,
or liabilities under or by reason of this Warrant, except as expressly provided in this Warrant.
6
19. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall
constitute one instrument.
20. Severability. If one or more provisions of this Warrant are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this
Warrant, the balance of this Warrant shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
21. Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party under this Warrant, upon any breach or
default of any other party under this Warrant, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting party nor shall it be
construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall
any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit,
consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Warrant, or any waiver on the part of any party of
any provisions or conditions of this Warrant, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies,
either under this Warrant or by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
22. Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon delivery, when delivered personally
or by overnight courier or sent by facsimile, or 48 hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or registered mail, with postage prepaid,
addressed to the party to be notified at such party's address as set forth on the signature page, or as subsequently modified by written notice.

canceled.

In consideration for Pro-Dex’s agreement to exercise the Warrant on the terms set forth above:
(a) If Monogram engages in or otherwise consummates a Warrant Coverage Issuance during a Warrant Coverage Measurement Period that results in

offering or take any other action with the purpose or intent of depriving, or otherwise engage in any plan or scheme to deprive, Pro-Dex of its rights under
this paragraph.
(b) Monogram shall grant Pro-Dex piggyback registration rights for all Monogram securities from time to time owned by Pro-Dex on terms at least as
favorable to Pro-Dex as Monogram may at any time grant piggyback (or equivalent) registration rights to any other holder of Monogram securities.
