Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Principles of consolidation The Company has eight wholly owned subsidiaries, Genasys II Spain, S.A.U. (“Genasys Spain”), Genasys Communications Canada ULC (“Genasys Canada”), Genasys Singapore PTE Ltd, Genasys Puerto Rico, LLC, Zonehaven LLC, Evertel Technologies LLC, and Genasys Inc. (branch) in the United Arab Emirates and one currently inactive subsidiary, Genasys America de CV. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of these subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2024, the amount of cash and cash equivalents was $8,672. As of September 30, 2023, the amount of cash and cash equivalents was $8,665. The Company considers any amounts pledged as collateral or otherwise restricted for use in current operations to be restricted cash. In addition, the Company excludes from cash and cash equivalents cash required to fund specific future contractual obligations related to business combinations. Restricted cash is classified as a current asset unless amounts are not expected to be released and available for use in operations within one year. As of June 30, 2024, restricted cash was $346. As of September 30, 2023, restricted cash was $854.
Receivable [Policy Text Block] | Accounts receivable and allowance for credit losses The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), as of October 1, 2023. This new standard adds to U.S. GAAP an impairment model, known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model, that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which is intended to result in the timelier recognition of losses. Under the CECL model, entities estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term from the date of initial recognition of the financial instrument. The standard only impacts the Company’s trade receivables. The Company adopted the accounting standard as of October 1, 2023. There was no cumulative effect adjustment, and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements or existing internal controls. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses primarily for estimated losses resulting from the inability or failure of individual customers to make required payments. The Company maintains an allowance under ASC 326, based on historical losses, changes in payment history, customer-specific information, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. The allowance under ASC 326 is updated as additional losses are incurred or information becomes available related to the customer or economic conditions. The Company’s allowance for credit losses was $65 as of June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023. The Company writes off accounts receivable based on the age of the receivable and the facts and circumstances surrounding the customer and reasons for non-payment. Actual write-offs might differ from the recorded allowance.
Reclassification, Comparability Adjustment [Policy Text Block] | Reclassifications Where necessary, certain prior year’s information has been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Debt, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Term Loan The Company determined that it is eligible for the fair value option (“FVO”) election in connection with the Term Loan. The Term Loan meets the definition of a “recognized financial liability” which is an acceptable financial instrument eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10-15-4 and do not meet the definition of any of the financial instruments found within ASC 825-10-15-5 that are not eligible for the fair value option. The fair value option election was made to enhance the relevance and transparency of information presented related to the features embedded in the Term Loan. At the date of issuance, the fair value of the Term Loan was estimated using a discounted cash flow method. Changes in the fair value of the Term Loan, other than changes associated with the Company's own credit risk, are recorded as gains or losses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in each reporting period. Changes in fair value attributable to the Company's own credit risk are recorded in other comprehensive income or loss in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in each reporting period; there have been no such changes for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Under the fair value option, debt issuance costs are recorded in other expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Stockholders' Equity, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Warrants The warrants issued in conjunction with the Term Loan are classified as liabilities under ASC 815-40 due to not being indexed to the Company’s stock. The warrants are measured at fair value using Monte Carlo simulation to capture the down-round provision in the warrant agreement. Changes in fair value of the warrants, are recorded as gains or losses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in each reporting period.
