Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Business Description and Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1 - Business Description and Significant Accounting Policies Business Description Oblong, Inc. (“Oblong” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation in May 2000 and is a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration technologies and managed services for video collaboration and network applications. Basis of Presentation The Company's fiscal year ends on December 31 of each calendar year. The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The December 31, 2022 year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data in this document was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q do not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 21, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”). The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year. On January 3, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of its Common Stock. All Common Stock share information (including treasury share information) in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and has been adjusted for this stock split retrospectively for all periods represented herein. Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Oblong and our 100%-owned subsidiaries (i) GP Communications, LLC (“GP Communications”), whose business function is to provide interstate telecommunications services for regulatory purposes, and (ii) Oblong Industries, Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The U.S. Dollar is the functional currency for all subsidiaries. Segments The Company currently operates in two segments: (1) “Collaboration Products” which represents the business surrounding our Mezzanine™ product offerings, and (2) “Managed Services” which represents the business surrounding managed services for video collaboration and network solutions. See Note 10 - Segment Reporting for further discussion. Use of Estimates Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. We continually evaluate estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation. The significant areas of estimation include determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated lives and recoverability of intangible assets, the inputs used in the valuation of intangible assets in connection with our impairment test, and the inputs used in the fair value of equity-based awards. Significant Accounting Policies The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” as amended, which introduced an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses, rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (e.g., loans and held-to-maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (e.g., loan commitments). The expected credit losses consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. The Company adopted the new guidance, as of January 1, 2023, and it did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Casualty Loss In June 2022, the Company discovered that $533,000 of inventory was stolen from the Company’s warehouse in City of Industry, California, and we recorded a casualty loss in operating expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a recovery payment from one of our insurance policies of $400,000 as an offset to this casualty loss and in other current assets as of June 30, 2023. We received this recovery payment on July 21, 2023.
