3. Inventory and Other Deferred Costs
Inventory and other deferred costs consisted of the following:
The Company had inventory on consignment at customer sites of $2.3 million and $1.8 million as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.
In connection with the Company’s RestoreFlow allograft business, other deferred costs include costs incurred for the preservation of human tissues available for shipment, tissues currently in active processing, and tissues held in quarantine pending release to implantable status. By federal law, human tissues cannot be bought or sold. Therefore, the tissues the Company preserves are not held as inventory, and the costs the Company incurs to procure and process vascular tissues are instead accumulated and deferred. These costs include fixed and variable overhead costs associated with the cryopreservation process, including primarily direct labor costs, tissue recovery fees, inbound freight charges, indirect materials, and facilities costs. The Company expenses general and administrative expenses and selling expenses associated with the provision of these services as incurred. |
