1. | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Harvard Bioscience, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of June 30, 2025 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The December 31, 2024, consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 2025, results of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the anticipated operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2025, or any future periods. The accounting policies underlying the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are set forth in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Going Concern The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. A going-concern basis assumes that the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and contemplate the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. As noted below, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2025, there was indebtedness of $34.9 million outstanding under the Company's term loan and senior revolving credit facility (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”). On August 8, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment (the “August 2025 Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the lenders (the “Lenders”) and administrative agent agreed, subject to the terms contained in the August 2025 Amendment, to waive the events of default under the Credit Agreement due to the Company's failure to achieve certain refinancing milestones (the “Refinancing Milestones”) and its failure to comply with certain financial covenants. In connection with the August 2025 Amendment, the Company has agreed to accomplish steps towards the refinancing (the “Refinancing”) or repayment of the Credit Agreement by no later than December 5, 2025. The failure to accomplish such steps shall constitute an event of default under the Credit Agreement. In such event, in addition to other actions the lenders may require, the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement may become immediately due and payable. The Company continues to explore alternative sources of capital that would allow it to refinance the outstanding indebtedness due under the Credit Agreement, but its ability to access such other sources of capital is uncertain. There is no assurance that such capital will be available, be obtainable on commercially acceptable terms, or provide the Company with sufficient funds to meet its objectives. Based on its anticipated cash flows from operations, unless the Company is able to access other sources of capital or extend the date for repayment under the Credit Agreement, the Company will be unable to pay its debt obligations and fund its operations for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As a result, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of management estimates. Such estimates include the determination and establishment of certain accruals and provisions, including those for income taxes, credit losses on receivables, and defined benefit pension obligations. Estimates are also required to assess the value for inventories reported at lower of cost or net realizable value, stock-based compensation expense, and the recoverability of long-lived and intangible assets, including goodwill. On an ongoing basis, the Company assesses its previous estimates based upon currently available information. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates. Other Operating Expenses The components of other operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:
|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
(in thousands) |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Employee retention tax credit fees (see Note 5) |  | $ | 170 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 341 |  |  | $ | 472 |
Unclaimed property audits expense (see Note 13) |  |  | - |  |  |  | (147 | ) |  |  | - |  |  |  | 347 |
Restructuring expenses (see Note 14) |  |  | 30 |  |  |  | 396 |  |  |  | 123 |  |  |  | 396 |
Total other operating expenses |  | $ | 200 |  |  | $ | 249 |  |  | $ | 464 |  |  | $ | 1,215 |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Yet to Be Adopted In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax, which enhances disclosures related to the effective tax rate reconciliation, income taxes paid, as well as other disclosures. The new standard impacts footnote disclosures and is effective for the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Company is continuing to assess the impact adopting ASU No. 2023-09 will have on the footnote disclosures in its consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40): Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires enhanced disclosure of income statement expense categories to improve transparency and provide financial statement users with more detailed information about the nature, amount and timing of expenses impacting financial performance. This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the impact adopting ASU No. 2024-03 will have on the footnote disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.
