Founded in 2002, Restoration Robotics is a medical technology company that purports to be developing and commercializing a robotic device (the "ARTAS System") designed to assist physicians in performing many of the repetitive tasks that are a part of a follicular unit extraction surgery, a type of hair restoration procedure. On October 16, 2017, Restoration Robotics closed its IPO, selling 3,897,910 shares at a public offering price of $7.00 per share, raising cash proceeds for the Company of approximately $22.7 million after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and expenses.

Contrary to the representations made in its Offering documents, Restoration Robotics was not equipped with a sufficient salesforce to effectively grow its business in the United States, nor was the Offering sufficient to fund Restoration Robotics' operations for a full year after the IPO. On May 11, 2018, Restoration Robotics announced that it had obtained additional financing in the form of a $20 million Loan and Security Agreement with Solar Capital Ltd. and Bridge Bank. Then, On May 14, 2018, on an earnings call discussing the Company's financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2018, Company Chief Executive Officer Ryan Rhodes stated that "[i]n the near-term, we expect some level of softness as we further optimize and expand our sales teams as the new U.S sales reps take time to become more productive."
