Since Our Last Raise...
*OAK (Version 2) is currently under development and not yet available on the market.
Overview
Fisher Wallace has developed a wearable brain stimulation device that electrically stimulates the brain to treat depression, anxiety, and insomnia without causing serious side effects. The company’s proof-of-concept device, the Fisher Wallace Stimulator®, has been cleared by the FDA and purchased by over 100,000 patients.
In early 2022, the company launched a pivotal clinical trial in order to obtain FDA Approval for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder. This study was completed in late October and a preliminary analysis of results by the company’s biostatistics firm indicates that active treatment was superior to placebo, and that there were no reports of serious adverse events. A final, validated analysis and report will be submitted to the FDA by the December 11, 2022 submission deadline to support FDA Approval.
The company also launched a first responder pilot program in collaboration with the Seattle Police Department and Washington State University in early 2022 to improve the mental health and wellness of uniformed officers and 911 responders. The Salt Lake City and Nashville Police Departments have since joined the program, and enrollment remains open for at least the next few months. The results of this program will support the company’s efforts to scale its solution to first responder communities nationwide.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, more attention has also been paid by the media to the mental health crisis facing professional sports. In October 2022, the company engaged sports agent David Sloane to assist in increasing adoption of the company’s technology by teams, with a focus on Major League Baseball and the NFL.
The company is nearing completion of its Version 2.0 device, called OAK, in collaboration with Alloy Product Development and Eric Fields, the engineers and designers behind Beats, Nest and the Microsoft Hololens. OAK will deliver the same treatment as the company’s Version 1.0 device and will inherit its regulatory approvals and clearances. With world-class design and scientific validation, OAK is intended to appeal to tens of millions of people seeking a better way to improve mental health and wellness.

Depression and anxiety affect one in three Americans (source and source), and at least 50 million Americans suffer from a sleep disorder (source). Recent data shows that the pandemic accelerated antidepressant use, with 23% more Americans taking an antidepressant in the third quarter of 2020-2021 versus the same quarter in 2015-2016. (source)
The problem
Medication for depression, anxiety and insomnia causes a wide range of side effects, sometimes serious, and even in generic form is expensive when the cost of doctor visits is included. The average cost of seeing a therapist is $100 - $200 per session (source) and as many as half of all patients fail to complete the “homework” associated with cognitive behavioral therapy that’s needed to experience results (source). While these standards of care help millions of patients every year, millions more are in need of safe, effective alternatives or adjuncts.
the solution
According to our research, brain stimulation technology is gaining acceptance in the mental health industry. In clinical trials conducted with the company’s device, the majority of patients experienced symptom reduction within two weeks of daily 20-minute treatment sessions. The device does not cause serious side effects - temporary headache and dizziness are reported by less than 1% of device users. The device may be used safely as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with medication and/or psychotherapy. Additionally, more than 40% of Fisher Wallace customers report improvements in cognitive performance in addition to symptom reduction.
*OAK (Version 2) is currently under development and not yet available on the market.
our traction
Leveraging a vertically integrated e-commerce model with an integrated telemedicine prescription process, Fisher Wallace has succeeded in generating over $30 million in lifetime revenue from its direct-to-patient sales channel. Over 14,000 providers have prescribed the Fisher Wallace Stimulator®. In January 2022, Fisher Wallace launched its first B2B channel through a first responder pilot program in collaboration with the Seattle Police Department and Washington State University. The Nashville and Salt Lake City Police Departments have since joined the program.
The company’s ongoing clinical research is designed to both obtain new FDA Approval and Clearances, as well as enable the company to expand insurance coverage. Medicaid in Maine (MaineCare) became the first state Medicaid program to fully cover the purchase of the Fisher Wallace device.
*OAK (Version 2) is currently under development and not yet available on the market.
WHY INVEST

This 10% Bonus is only valid during the investor's eligibility period.

When our campaign launched, we had not yet completed or submitted the results of our pivotal depression trial to obtain FDA approval - that changed on December 9th, 2022 when we submitted our outstanding results to the FDA. According to the FDA review clock, we will receive the Agency's decision by November 17th of this year. Thank you for joining us as we continue to raise the bar for mental health treatment and address the needs of tens of millions of patients.

We've now raised over $8M on StartEngine since 2019.
One clear result of putting that capital to work: the pivotal clinical trial submitted to the FDA for approval two months ago validates our technology as the only depression treatment that is simultaneously fast acting, highly effective, safe, and self-administered.
Off the back of this data, we are now raising funds to:
1) Complete our Version 2.0 device, OAK, which will carry forward any new FDA approval and was designed in collaboration with the teams behind Beats, Nest and the HoloLens.
2) Launch anxiety and insomnia pivotal trials that leverage learnings from our previous research (in many ways replicating the success of our recent depression trial protocol) to lock in additional indications and expand the addressable market for OAK to more than half of the US adult population.
We believe this new category of device will ultimately achieve smartphone-level ubiquity, given the prevalence of depression, anxiety and insomnia and the scalability, safety and effectiveness of our solution. The FDA is scheduled to render a decision on approval before mid November of this year. FDA approval would establish a significant regulatory barrier to entry - a kind of tailwind for category leadership. A competitor must not only develop hardware, but conduct a pivotal clinical trial of similar scope and go through the FDA approval process - an endeavor that takes a significant amount of time during which Fisher Wallace will be growing.
While we cannot guarantee success, we've demonstrated our ability to put capital to work to position ourselves for success, year after year. Medical device hardware development and FDA approval are not quick and easy pursuits, but, to use the F1 analogy, we've successfully fought our way to pole position.
Best,
Kelly Roman

UPDATE ON SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL PUBLICATION
The results of our pivotal depression trial are being prepared for scientific journal submission. The lead author on the article is Philip Gehrman, PhD, CBSM, FAASM, who serves as Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology in Psychiatry at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. The study’s principal investigator, Kyle Lapidus, MD, PhD, is co-authoring the article.
We expect the draft to be finalized in the next 2-3 weeks and we will keep you updated on submission progress. We will submit to our top choice first, and only apply to a second journal if the first journal declines. We anticipate that no more than three submissions will be required, and we are targeting one the most well known journals in the field of psychiatry first (the name of which we will keep confidential until acceptance is confirmed).
Once the article is published, the data will become public - most importantly, the data will help inform treatment decisions by mental health professionals. We expect journal publication to occur prior to the FDA rendering a decision on approval (the FDA’s decision will occur before November 17, 2023, per their statutory review clock).
We have shared confidential details of the study results with StartEngine’s compliance team in order to defend our public claims regarding the study’s success: the device has now been proven to be fast-acting, highly effective and pose extremely low risk.
No previous wearable device has generated definitive (large scale, sufficiently powered) published evidence of depression treatment success - and likewise, the FDA has never before approved a wearable device for the treatment of depression (our device is currently FDA-Cleared). These are milestones we are on track to achieve this year - it has taken many years and millions of dollars to get to this point.
We would not have gotten to this point without the thousands of investors, many of whom are our customers, who invested through StartEngine. I believe we are building a great business that will make an enormous impact on society - I do not see any other way to scale depression treatment to meet the enormous need without devices like ours. No other solution is simultaneously fast-acting, highly effective, extremely safe, self-administered and affordable out-of-pocket.
Sincerely,
Kelly Roman

Dear Investors,
The StartEngine platform has not been providing me email notifications when comments are left, and at other times when I have left replies (including today), the system has not consistently loaded the reply under the comment. Additionally the Comments/Discussion section of the campaign page does not always appear when the campaign page loads, making it very difficult to track new comments manually. StartEngine is now aware of this issue and is working on it - I apologize for the delay in response! I take both investor and customer communications very seriously - it's why we have live customer service for Fisher Wallace 7 days a week.
Thanks,
Kelly Roman

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
