Semler Scientific, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Semler” or “the Company”), prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this report in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period, including the full year.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Semler Scientific, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CardioVanta, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Intangible digital assets

The Company accounts for its digital assets, which are comprised solely of Bitcoin, as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other. The Company has ownership of and control over its Bitcoin and uses third-party custodial services at multiple locations that are geographically dispersed to store its Bitcoin. The Company’s digital assets are initially recorded at cost and subsequently remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period, with changes recognized in other income (expense), net.

The Company purchases Bitcoin for long term investment. It intends to hold its digital assets for long term gains and treats them as long-term capital assets for tax purposes. Unrealized gains/losses are treated as capital gains/losses for tax purposes. A valuation allowance is recorded for unrealized capital losses. See Note 11 for additional information regarding the Company’s purchases and sales of digital assets.

Earnings per share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS attributable to common stockholders

The Company computes basic EPS (“Basic EPS”) by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company computes the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period using the total of common stock outstanding as of the last day of the previous year end reporting period plus the weighted average of any additional shares issued and outstanding less the weighted average of any common shares repurchased during the reporting period.

Diluted EPS attributable to common stockholders

Diluted EPS (“Diluted EPS”) includes the potential dilution of common equivalent shares outstanding that could occur from stock-based awards and other stock-based commitments using the treasury stock method. The Company computes Diluted EPS by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average numbers of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period. The Company computes the weighted average numbers of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period using the sum of (i) the number of shares of common stock used in the Basic EPS calculation as

indicated above; and (ii) if dilutive, the incremental weighted average number of shares of common stock that it would issue upon the assumed exercise of outstanding common share equivalents, primarily stock options using the treasury stock method.

Under the treasury stock method, the assumed proceeds calculation includes the actual proceeds to be received from the employee upon exercise of outstanding equity awards and the average unrecognized compensation cost during the period. The treasury stock method assumes that a company uses the proceeds from the exercise of an equity award to repurchase common stock at the average market price for the reporting period.

In periods of net income, shares of the Company’s common stock subject to the potential conversion of the 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”) outstanding during the period are also included in its weighted average number of shares outstanding used to calculate Diluted EPS using the if-converted method under GAAP, as share settlement is presumed. When convertible notes are dilutive, interest expense, net of tax, is added back to net income attributable to common stockholders to calculate Diluted EPS. Capped Calls (defined in Note 16) are excluded from the calculation of Diluted EPS, as they would be antidilutive. However, upon conversion of the 2030 Senior Notes, unless the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the cap price, an exercise of the Capped Calls would generally offset any dilution from the 2030 Senior Notes from the conversion price up to the cap price. As of June 30, 2025, the market price of a share of the Company’s common stock did not exceed the $107.01 cap price. See Note 16 for further information regarding the 2030 Senior Notes and Capped Calls.

In periods of net loss, common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation of Diluted EPS as their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect. Accordingly, for periods in which the Company reports a net loss, Diluted EPS is the same as Basic EPS because dilutive common share equivalents are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is antidilutive.

Debt issuance costs

The Company defers costs it incurs to issue debt, which are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, and amortizes these costs using the effective interest rate method to calculate interest expense over the term of the debt.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance that clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. This standard requires entities to disaggregate operating expenses into specific categories such as employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, by relevant expense caption on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, which means that it will be effective for the Company’s annual and interim reporting for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted on either a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncement

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced disclosures surrounding income taxes, particularly related to rate reconciliation

and income taxes paid information. In particular, on an annual basis, companies will be required to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Companies will also be required to disclose, on an annual basis, the amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions above a quantitative threshold. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted for all prior periods presented. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis and will include the required disclosures in its

consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025.
