MT Cap FDA 510(k) Clearance and U.S. Commercial Launch
In December of 2021, the Company received 510(k) clearance on their MT Cap technology for NeuroStar® Advanced Therapy for Mental Health. The MT Cap provides a target starting location and step-by-step map to guide the process of identifying a patient’s motor threshold (MT) and reduce multiple steps during the initial assessment for NeuroStar. The MT Cap leverages NeuroStar’s unique floating coil locking system, making mapping and determining motor thresholds seamless. Determining and locating a patient’s motor threshold is a critical component of the treatment process and can take up to 30 minutes for each patient. Now, when the MT Cap is combined with the recently launched FastMT™, these technology innovations provide an average 40% time savings during the MT activity. In March of 2022, the Company announced the nationwide commercial launch of the MT Cap in the U.S.
FastMT™ and SoftStart™ Software Enhancements to NeuroStar Therapy System
In October of 2021, the Company launched upgraded NeuroStar Advanced therapy systems with FastMT™ and SoftStart™, two significant software enhancements features related to a patient’s motor threshold assessment. FastMT™ and SoftStart™ enable faster motor threshold determination by reducing the number of steps in the process, allow health care professionals to automatically ramp pulse sequences to the prescribed treatment level for a patient, the ability to request and manage digital benefits investigation for new leads and the ability to schedule recurring patient outcome surveys through our TrakStar patient data management system.
November 2021 and March 2022 NeuroStar Summits
In November of 2021 in Nashville, TN, and March 2022 in San Diego, CA, the Company held its third and fourth NeuroStar Summit events, respectively, designed to provide prospective customers with a comprehensive understanding of the clinical and practice benefits of partnering with NeuroStar. The Summits were interactive events with approximately 170 prospective customers able to experience the NeuroStar Advanced Therapy System, interact with peers and hear from experts. Post survey results were extremely positive, and the Company plans to hold more Summits in the future.
Credit Facility Amendment
In February of 2022, the Company announced it has amended its term loan agreement with its current lenders, investment affiliates managed by SLR Investment Corp. (SLR), which was originally entered into on March 2, 2020 and subsequently amended on April 20, 2020 and December 2, 2020. This amendment includes modifications to the ability of the Company to extend the interest-only period, the reduction of certain revenue covenants, and the elimination of the final term loan tranche available to the Company.
Business Outlook
For the full year 2022, the Company expects to report total worldwide revenue between $58.0 million and $62.0 million.
For the full year 2022, the Company expects total operating expenses to be between $86.0 million and $90.0 million.
For the first quarter of 2022, the Company expects to report total worldwide revenue of between $13.0 million and $14.0 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, and should not be construed as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP net loss. However, management uses both the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations and to better understand its business. Further, management believes the addition of the non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplementary information to, and facilitates analysis by, investors in evaluating the Company’s financial performance, results of operations and trends. The Company’s calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly designated measures reported by other companies, because companies and investors may differ as to what type of events warrant adjustment.
The following table reconciles reported net loss to EBITDA:
