The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited financial statements and related
notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical financial information, the
following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based upon
current plans, expectations and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties.
Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set
forth under Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q.

Overview

We are a medical device company with a mission to treat and transform the lives
of patients suffering from venous and other diseases. Our current product
offerings consist of two minimally-invasive, novel catheter-based mechanical
thrombectomy systems, which are purpose-built for the specific characteristic of
the venous system and the treatment of the two distinct manifestations of venous
thromboembolism, or VTE - deep vein thrombosis, or DVT, and pulmonary embolism,
or PE. Our ClotTriever product is FDA-cleared for the treatment of DVT. Our
FlowTriever product is the first thrombectomy system FDA-cleared for the
treatment of PE and is also FDA-cleared for clot in transit in the right atrium.

We believe the best way to treat VTE and improve the quality of life of patients
suffering from this disease is to safely and effectively remove the blood clot.
With that in mind, we designed and purpose-built our ClotTriever and FlowTriever
systems. The ClotTriever is a mechanical thrombectomy system designed to core,
capture and remove large clots from large vessels and is used to treat DVT. The
FlowTriever is a large bore catheter-based aspiration and mechanical
thrombectomy system designed to remove large clots from large vessels to treat
PE. Both systems are designed to eliminate the need for thrombolytic drugs.

We believe our mission-focused and highly-trained commercial organization
provides a significant competitive advantage. Our most important relationships
are between our sales representatives and our treating physicians, which include
interventional cardiologists, interventional radiologists and vascular surgeons.
We recruit sales representatives who have substantial and applicable medical
device and/or sales experience. Our front-line sales representatives typically
attend procedures, which puts us at the intersection of the patients, products
and physicians. We have developed systems and processes to harness the
information gained from these relationships and we leverage this information to
rapidly iterate products, introduce and execute physician education and training
programs and scale our sales organization. We market and sell our products to
hospitals, which are reimbursed by various third-party payors.

In March 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering, or the Follow-On
Offering, of 2,300,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $81.00 per share.
We received net proceeds of approximately $174.4 million, after deducting
underwriters' discounts and commissions and offering costs.

As of June 30, 2022, we had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments
of $330.5 million, no long-term debt outstanding and an accumulated deficit of
$30.9 million.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company generated $92.7 million in
revenues with a gross margin of 88.8% and net loss of $10.2 million, as compared
to revenues of $63.5 million with a gross margin of 92.4% and net income of $4.1
million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company generated $179.5 million in
revenues with a gross margin of 88.7% and net loss of $13.3 million, as compared
to revenues of $120.9 million with a gross margin of 92.2% and net income of
$11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

COVID-19



The global healthcare system continues to face an unprecedented challenge as a
result of the COVID-19 situation and its impact. COVID-19 has had and may
continue to have an adverse impact on aspects of our business, including the
demand for our products, operations, and ability to research and develop and
bring new products and services to market.

In response to the impact of COVID-19, we implemented a variety of measures to
help manage through the impact and position us to keep operations running
efficiently. However, with hospitals facing staff or other resource constraints,
to the extent individuals and hospital systems de-prioritize, delay or cancel
deferrable medical procedures, our business, cash flows, financial condition and
results of operations may continue to be negatively affected.

The actual and perceived impact of COVID-19 is still evolving and cannot be
predicted. As a result, we cannot assure you that our recent procedure volumes
are indicative of future results or that we will not experience additional
negative impacts associated with COVID-19 or staffing shortages, which could be
significant. We continue to focus our efforts on the health and safety of
patients, healthcare providers and employees, while executing our mission of
transforming lives of patients. While we expect the COVID-19

                                       19
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

pandemic may continue to negatively impact 2022 performance, we believe the long-term fundamentals remain strong and we will continue to effectively manage through these challenges.



Revenue

We currently derive substantially all our revenue from the sale of our
ClotTriever and FlowTriever systems directly to hospitals primarily in the
United States. Our customers typically purchase an initial stocking order of our
products and then reorder replenishment as procedures are performed. We expect
our revenue to increase in absolute dollars as we expand our sales organization
and sales territories, add customers, expand the base of physicians that are
trained to use our products, expand awareness of our products with new and
existing customers and as physicians perform more procedures using our products.
Revenue for ClotTriever and FlowTriever systems as a percentage of total revenue
is as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



Other than the accounting policy changes discussed in "Note 2 - Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies" to our condensed consolidated financial
statements, which is included in "Part I, Item 1. Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements (Unaudited)", there have been no significant changes in our
critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as
compared to the critical accounting policies disclosed in Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021,
filed with the SEC on February 23, 2022.

Revenue. Revenue increased $29.3 million, or 46.2%, to $92.7 million during the
three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $63.5 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in revenue was due primarily to an
increase in the number of product offerings and the number of units sold as we
expanded our sales territories, opened new accounts and achieved deeper
penetration of our products into existing accounts.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased $5.5 million, or 114.9%, to
$10.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $4.8
million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily
due to the increase in the number of products sold and additional manufacturing
overhead costs incurred as we invested significantly in our new facility and
operational infrastructure to support our growth.

                                       20
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Gross Margin. Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased to
88.8%, compared to 92.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due
to a decrease in operating leverage due to the expanded footprint of our
manufacturing capacity and the addition of new products to our FlowTriever per
procedure pricing model.

Research and Development Expenses. R&D expenses increased $7.0 million, or
59.7%, to $18.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to
$11.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in R&D
expenses was primarily due to increases of $5.1 million of personnel-related
expenses, $1.0 million in materials and supplies, and $0.5 million of clinical
and regulatory expenses, in support of our growth drivers to develop new
products and build the clinical evidence base.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $30.3
million, or 70.5%, to $73.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022,
compared to $42.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The
increase in SG&A costs was primarily due to increases of $19.4 million in
personnel-related expenses as a result of increased headcount across our
organization and increased commissions due to higher revenue, $3.2 million in
marketing expenses, $2.9 million in travel and related expenses, $2.3 million in
professional fees, and $1.1 million in facility related expenses, particularly
related to our new facility.

Interest Income. Interest income increased by $179,000 or 511.4% to $214,000
during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $35,000 during the
three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in interest income was primarily
due to higher average cash and short-term investments balances during the three
months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was relatively consistent with $73,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $74,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Other Income (Expense). Other income of $252,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 consisted primarily of foreign currency transaction gains.

expenses was

                                       21
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


primarily due to increases of $10.1 million of personnel-related expenses, $2.8

Liquidity and Capital Resources



To date, our primary sources of capital have been the net proceeds we received
through private placements of preferred stock, debt financing agreements, the
sale of common stock in our IPO and Follow-On Offering, and revenue from the
sale of our products. On May 27, 2020, we completed our IPO, including the
underwriters full exercise of their over-allotment option, selling 9,432,949
shares of our common stock at $19.00 per share. Upon completion of our IPO, we
received net proceeds of approximately $163.0 million, after deducting
underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. In March 2022, we
completed a Follow-On Offering by issuing 2,300,000 shares of common stock, at
an offering price of $81.00 per share, for net proceeds to us of approximately
$174.4 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
offering expenses. As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of
$79.7 million, short-term investments of $250.8 million and an accumulated
deficit of $30.9 million. In September 2020, we entered into a revolving Credit
Agreement with Bank of America which provides for loans up to a maximum of $30
million. As of June 30, 2022, we had no principal outstanding under the Credit
Agreement and the amount available to borrow was approximately $28.2 million.

Based on our current planned operations, we expect that our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and available borrowings will enable us to fund our operating expenses for at least 12 months from the date hereof.



If our available cash balances and anticipated cash flow from operations are
insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements including because of lower
demand for our products as a result of the risks described in this Quarterly
Report, we may seek to sell additional common or preferred equity or convertible
debt securities, enter into an additional credit facility or another form of
third-party funding or seek other debt financing. The sale of equity and
convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders and, in
the case of preferred equity securities or convertible debt, those securities
could provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our
common stock. The terms of debt securities issued or borrowings pursuant to a
credit agreement could impose significant restrictions on our operations. If we
raise funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements, we might be
required to relinquish significant rights to our platform technologies or
products or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. Additional
capital may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all.

Cash Flows

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities



Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was
$12.2 million, consisting primarily of net loss of $13.3 million and a decrease
in net operating assets of $16.2 million, offset by non-cash charges of $17.3
million. The decrease in net operating assets was primarily due to decreases in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.2 million due to timing of
payments and growth of our operations, lease prepayments for lessor's owned
leasehold improvements of $3.0 million and a decrease in operating lease
liabilities of $0.5 million, coupled with increases in inventories of $5.7
million and accounts receivable of $7.0 million, offset by a decrease in prepaid
and other assets of $1.0 million. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of
$13.7 million in stock-based compensation expense, $2.3 million in depreciation,
and $1.2 million in amortization of the right-of-use assets.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021
was $16.1 million, consisting primarily of net income of $11.5 million and
non-cash charges of $10.1 million, offset by an increase in net operating assets
of $5.6 million. The increase in net operating assets was primarily due to
increases in accounts receivable of $3.5 million and inventories of $7.5 million
to support the growth of our operations, an increase in prepaid and other assets
of $11.3 million primarily from deposits related to Oak Canyon and prepaid
insurance, which were partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $7.3
million and accrued liabilities of $9.8 million due to timing of payments and
growth of our operations and a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $0.4
million. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of $8.4 million in stock-based
compensation, $1.3 million in depreciation, $0.4 million in amortization of the
