Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Purchase Commitments The Company, post-acquisition of raw materials, relies significantly upon third-party contract manufacturers located in Taiwan. Management believes that supply risks related to dependence on fewer key suppliers or contract manufacturers, and political risk, can potentially be hedged with the use of more than one supplier and a readiness to quickly adjust the supply chain (and geographic sourcing within Asia). On July 15, 2025, the Company entered into a development agreement with Canon Inc., a Japanese corporation, for the development of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (“CMOS”) image sensor samples to allow the Company to evaluate functionality and performance, conduct clinical evaluation of capsule endoscopies that incorporate Canon image sensors and obtain FDA 510(k) clearance thereof. Under the Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Canon a fee of approximately $4.1 million for Canon’s development efforts, which is comprised of (a) an initial fee of $1.0 million that was paid in cash on July 31, 2025 upon the Agreement’s effectiveness, and (b) following delivery of a specified number of CMOS image sensors meeting agreed specifications within the required timeframe, a remaining development fee of approximately $3.1 million. Additionally, due to the changes in the development scope by the end of fiscal year 2025, Canon and the Company agreed to increase the development fee by $1.0 million and executed an amendment to the original development agreement in March 2026. For the year ended December 31, 2025 we recognized $2.4 million in R&D expenses. The outstanding balance due to Canon was $1.4 million and included in Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. The outstanding purchase commitment for this agreement as of December 31, 2025 is $2.7 million. Receipt of Federal Government Assistance In April 2025, the Company received cash related to refundable payroll tax credits from the U.S. Federal government in the amount of $208 reflecting receipt of credit claims related to calendar 2020 and 2021 remitted to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service under the Employee Retention Credit program, a source of COVID-19 pandemic era Federal relief. This amount, due to the uncertainty of eventual receipt following claims made, was not recognized until receipt in the year ended December 31, 2025 and was reflected within general and administrative expenses given its relationship to payroll taxes reflected as operating expenses. There can be no assurance that the Company’s program benefit received may not be examined, and if examined, possibly challenged as to a portion or all of the benefit received which, if required to be returned, would have an adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity. Litigation and Legal Matters The Company may be the subject of adverse litigation as a defendant, arbitration, claims, or proceedings related to things such as intellectual property infringement or disputes, commercial contract breaches or disputes, employment matters, or other matters in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes may be unpredictable. Such matters may be fully or partially mitigated by the effect of insurance coverage in place or counter-party indemnitors. The Company provides for liabilities via a charge to operating expenses when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company is not a party to any material litigation, arbitration, claims or proceedings and therefore did not have any contingency-related liabilities as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
