Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation:

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), including ASC 810, Consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

Risk and Uncertainties

Risk and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties and believes changes in any of the following areas could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations or cash flows: new product development, including market receptivity; litigation or claims against the Company based on intellectual property, patent, product regulation or other factors; competition from other products; general economic conditions; the ability to attract and retain qualified employees; and, ultimately, to sustain profitable operations.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal year 2024 and 2023 consolidated financial statements to conform to the fiscal year 2025 presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on net loss, total assets, total liabilities, or stockholders’ equity.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates required to be made by management include the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, deferred tax assets, equity-based transactions and liquidity assessment. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in mutual funds and deposit and money market accounts with high quality financial institutions which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $720.6 million and $78.9 million, respectively, in cash equivalents invested in mutual funds. The Company has not experienced any losses on these deposits and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on cash. 

Marketable Securities: Available-For-Sale Debt Securities

Marketable Securities: Available-For-Sale Debt Securities

The Company invests excess cash balances in marketable debt securities. The Company classifies investments in marketable debt securities as available-for-sale. Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in available-for-sale debt securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each reporting date. The Company reports available-for-sale debt securities at fair value at each balance sheet date, and includes any unrealized holding gains and losses (the adjustment to fair value) in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific-identification method, and are included in interest and other income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company classifies available-for-sale debt securities as current or non-current based on management’s intentions or maturity of the securities.

The Company evaluates securities for impairment at the end of each reporting period. Impairment is evaluated considering numerous factors, and their relative significance varies depending on the situation. Factors considered include whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is due to credit-related factors or non-credit-related factors, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value. A credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. Any impairment that is not credit- related is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes.

Revenue

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, by analyzing contracts with its customers using a five-step approach:

  1. Identify the contract
  2. Identify the performance obligations
3. Determine the transaction price
     
  4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations
     
  5. Recognize revenue when performance obligations are satisfied

The revenue the Company has recognized in the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were primarily derived from contracts to perform professional services. Revenue from time and materials-based contracts is recognized as the direct hours worked during the period times the contractual hourly rate, plus direct materials and other direct costs as appropriate, plus negotiated materials handling burdens, if any. Revenue from units-based contracts is recognized as the number of units delivered or performed during the period times the contractual unit price. Revenue from fixed price contracts is recognized as work is performed with estimated profits recorded on a percentage of completion basis. The Company has no cost-plus type contracts at this time.

The Company includes depreciation and amortization expenses in manufacturing overhead, which is a component of cost of revenue. However, at the present time manufacturing overhead, including depreciation and amortization expense related to production equipment, is not material and the primary components of cost of revenue are direct labor and direct materials, with a small amount of shipping expenses.

The Company’s revenue consists of (in thousands):

   Year Ended December 31, 
   2025   2024   2023 
Services  $368   $346   $353 
Products   314    27    5 
Total  $682   $373   $358 

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers based on the timing of transfer of goods or services to customers (point-in-time or over time) and geographic region based on the shipping location of the customer. The geographic regions that are tracked for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 are the Americas and Europe.

Total net sales based on the disaggregation criteria described above are as follows (in thousands):

   Year Ended December 31,

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from customers for work performed on contracts. The Company records accounts receivable at their net realizable value. Periodically the Company evaluates its accounts receivable to establish a provision for credit losses, when deemed necessary, based on the history of past write-offs, collections and current credit conditions. The customer accounts receivable are considered fully collectible in the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Provision for Credit Losses

Provision for Credit Losses

The Company estimates losses on loans and other financial instruments in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 introduces the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses. The CECL framework requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supporting forecasts. Under CECL, the allowance for credit losses is measured as the difference between the financial asset’s cost basis and the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. CECL allows us to use information about past events including historical loan loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to assess the collectability of the financial assets. The receivables for financial assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are not considered fully collectible and thus management has recorded a provision for credit losses. See Note 11, Loan Receivable, for additional information.

Inventory

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on a standard cost basis which approximates actual cost on a first in-first out method. Lower of cost or net realizable value is evaluated by considering obsolescence, excessive levels of inventory, deterioration and other factors. Adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value, if required, are made for estimated excess, obsolescence or impaired inventory and are charged to cost of revenue. Once the cost of the inventory is reduced, a new lower-cost basis for that inventory is established, and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis. Factors influencing these adjustments include changes in demand, product life cycle and development plans, component cost trends, product pricing, physical deterioration and quality issues. Revisions to these adjustments would be required if these factors differ from our estimates.

Operating Leases

Operating Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are included in right-of-use assets, net on the consolidated balance sheets. The current and long-term components of operating lease liabilities are included in the current operating lease liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Certain leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. All of our operating leases are comprised of office space leases, and as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had no finance leases.

Valuation of Goodwill

Valuation of Goodwill

The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company performs an annual impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The Company has determined that it has a single reporting unit for purposes of performing its goodwill impairment test. As the Company uses the market approach to assess impairment, its common stock price is an important component of the fair value calculation. If the Company’s stock price continues to experience significant price and volume fluctuations, this will impact the fair value of the reporting unit and can lead to potential impairment in future periods. The Company performed its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 and determined that its goodwill was not impaired. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had not identified any factors that indicated there was an impairment of our goodwill and determined that no additional impairment analysis was then required. There were no impairments recorded for any period presented.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost or contributed value. Depreciation of furniture, software and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged against expense as incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company has long-lived assets such as tangible property and equipment, identified intangible assets consisting of acquired patents and core technology. When events or changes in circumstances occur that could indicate the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, the Company assesses recoverability by determining whether the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. If the undiscounted cash flow is less, an impairment charge is recognized for the excess of the carrying amounts of these assets over the fair values. Fair values are determined by discounted future cash flows, appraisals or other methods.

During years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not record any impairment from long-lived assets. 

Research and Development Costs

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of services provided by outside contractors, acquiring work-in-progress intellectual property, development, and mandatory compliance fees and contractual obligations. All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.

Software Development Costs

Software Development Costs

Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility for software intended to be sold, licensed or otherwise marketed to customers will be capitalized, but development costs not meeting the criteria for capitalization are expensed as incurred. With respect to internal use software, the Company will capitalize such development costs incurred during the application development stage, but development costs incurred prior to that stage will be expensed as incurred. No amortization expense will be recorded until the software is ready for its intended use. To date the Company has not incurred any material capitalizable software development costs.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for awards expected to vest is recognized using the straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period and reflects actual forfeitures as they occur. We estimate the fair value of stock option awards on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of several highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility, expected option life, and the risk-free interest rate. These assumptions represent management’s best estimates, and changes in these estimates could have a material impact on the amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized in future periods.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax expense or benefit is the result of changes in the deferred tax assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets where, based upon the available evidence, management concludes that it is more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is also dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain.

The Company records a liability for the uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on the Company’s tax return when it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position might be challenged despite the Company’s belief that the tax return positions are fully supportable, and additional taxes will be due as a result. To the extent that the assessment of such tax positions changes, for example, based on the outcome of a tax audit, the change in estimate is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of provisions for uncertain tax positions.

Net Loss Per Share

Net Loss Per Share:

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued (computed using the “If-Converted” method), unless the effect of such issuances would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share (in thousands, except for per share data):

   Year Ended December 31, 
   2025   2024   2023 
Basic net income (loss) per common share:            
Numerator:            
Net loss  $(18,674)  $(68,542)  $(27,022)
Less: Series A convertible preferred stock dividends   
-
    
-
    861 
Net loss available to common stockholders   (18,674)   (68,542)   (27,883)
                
Denominator:               
Weighted average outstanding shares of common share - basic   164,492    93,881    66,611 
Loss per common share – basic and diluted  $(0.11)  $(0.73)  $(0.42)

Net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period.

In periods with a reported net loss, the effect of anti-dilutive stock options, unvested restricted common stock and warrants are excluded and diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share. Due to a net loss in the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, there were no dilutive securities and hence basic and diluted loss per share were the same. The following is a summary of the weighted average common stock equivalents for the securities outstanding during the respective periods that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share, as their effect would be anti-dilutive (in thousands):

   Year Ended December 31, 
   2025   2024   2023 
Warrants   1,599    2,583    6,053 
Options   5,510    12,907    12,280 
Unvested restricted common stock   1,200    2,997    1,192 
Total potentially dilutive shares   8,309    18,487    19,525 

As all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for each period.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under ASU 2023-09, entities are required to uniformly classify and present greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is intended to benefit users of the consolidated financial statements by improving transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 for public companies. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 as of January 1, 2025. The standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires public entities to provide disaggregated disclosures of certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement into specific categories within the notes to the consolidated financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The ASU may be applied either on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On July 30, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which amends ASC 326-20 to provide a practical expedient (for all entities) and an accounting policy election (for all entities, other than public business entities, that elect the practical expedient) related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under ASC 606. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods, and allows for early adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (ASU 2025-11), which clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. The guidance will be effective for interim periods beginning January 1, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
