Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations and stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, are unaudited. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments which are normal and recurring, and necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 12, 2025 (the "2024 Form 10-K"). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
Consolidation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations and stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, are unaudited. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments which are normal and recurring, and necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 12, 2025 (the "2024 Form 10-K"). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this update are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The improved disclosure requirements apply to all public entities that are required to report segment information, including those with only reportable segment. In addition to the current requirements, the amendments require all segment profit or loss and asset disclosures to be provided on an annual and interim basis. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and will be effective for interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 with no material effect on its consolidated financial statements other than the additional disclosure requirements, which are included in Note 11. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides for improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and the adoption of this standard is not anticipated to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements other than adding new disclosures, which the Company is currently evaluating. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which is intended to improve the decision-usefulness of expense information on public companies' income through disaggregation of relevant expense captions in the notes to the financial statements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current presentation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | The Company measures and discloses fair value measurements as required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or the amount that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the FASB establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value: •Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. •Level 2 – Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. •Level 3 – Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Earnings Per Share | The Company calculates earnings per share (“EPS”) as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding common stock equivalents. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, plus the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method. The 845,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, described in Note 4 to these consolidated financial statements, were included in the weighted average outstanding Common Stock in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share from May 2024 through their exercise in August 2024, as the exercise price was non-substantive at $0.001 per share. For periods with a net loss, the dilutive common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation. For purposes of this calculation, Common Stock subject to repurchase by the Company, options, warrants (other than the Pre-Funded Warrants), and convertible notes are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is dilutive.
Segment Information | Segment Information Public companies are required to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 280, Segment Reporting. The Company has one primary business unit based on how management internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility: Wireless. The Wireless segment includes the Family Safety (which includes SafePath®), CommSuite®, and ViewSpot® families of products. The Company does not separately allocate operating expenses to these product lines, nor does it allocate specific assets. Therefore, product line information reported includes only revenues. The accounting policies of the Company's single operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies appearing in Note 1. Although the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") uses other measures of operating performance, the Company concluded that consolidated net loss is the measure required to be disclosed as the segment measure of profit or loss. Adjusted operating loss and net loss are used to evaluate the effectiveness of Smith Micro's performance and to monitor budget versus actual results. The measure of segment assets is reflected as "total assets" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Revenue and expenses regularly provided to the CODM are included in the following reconciliation of the Company's net adjusted operating loss and net loss. It includes the significant expense categories computed under US GAAP, reconciled to the Company's total net loss as presented in the consolidated statement of operations (unaudited, in thousands).

Income Taxes | The Company accounts for income taxes as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes. The Company assesses whether a valuation allowance should be recorded against its deferred tax assets based on the consideration of all available evidence, using a “more likely than not” realization standard. The four sources of taxable income that must be considered in determining whether deferred tax assets will be realized are: (1) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences (i.e., offset of gross deferred tax liabilities against gross deferred tax assets); (2) taxable income in prior carryback years, if carryback is permitted under the applicable tax law; (3) tax planning strategies; and (4) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards. In assessing whether a valuation allowance is required, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income. As required by ASC 740, Smith Micro has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon its ability to realize the deferred tax assets and determined that it was more likely than not that the Company would not realize the deferred tax assets due to the Company's cumulative losses and uncertain near-term market and economic conditions, which reduce the Company’s ability to rely on projections of future taxable income in assessing the realizability of its deferred tax assets.
