Emerging Growth Company

Emerging Growth Company

Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non- emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when an accounting standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised accounting standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requiring public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU No. 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. The Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 17, Segment and Geographic Information, in these notes to the financial statements for further detail.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes, which prescribes standardized categories and disaggregation of information in the reconciliation of provision for income taxes, requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, and modifies other income tax-related disclosure requirements. The updated standard is effective for us beginning with our fiscal year 2026 annual reporting period.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of income statement expenses, which requires disclosures of certain additional expense information on an annual and interim basis, including, among other items, the amounts of

purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included within each income statement expense caption, as applicable. The updated standard is effective for our annual periods beginning in fiscal year 2026 and interim periods beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced an expected credit loss model for the impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost. The model replaces the probable, incurred loss model for those assets and broadens the information an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured at amortized cost. On January 1, 2023, we adopted ASU No. 2016-13 with no material impact to our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requiring public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 15 Segment and Geographic Information in the accompanying notes to the financial statements for further detail.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. There are three levels of input that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access.

Level 2 Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities.

Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company reviews the fair value hierarchy classification on an as needed basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy. The Company recognizes transfers into and out of levels within the fair value hierarchy in the appropriate period in which the actual event or change in circumstances caused the transfer to occur.

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

Level 2 Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of prepaid insurance premiums and retainers for services.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of prepaid insurance premiums and retainers for services. Other current assets consist primarily of employee cash advances.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance, repairs, and minor replacements are charged to expenses as incurred. Depreciation on property and equipment is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations in the period realized.

We evaluate our long-lived assets each quarter for indicators of potential impairment. Indicators of impairment include current period losses combined with a history of losses, or when changes in other circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The assets of the Company with indicators of impairment are evaluated for recoverability by comparing its undiscounted future cash flow with its carrying value. If the carrying value is greater than the undiscounted future cash flows, we then measure the asset’s fair value to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. If the resulting fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value. There were no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

We evaluate our long-lived assets each quarter for indicators of potential impairment. Indicators of impairment include current period losses combined with a history of losses, or when changes in other circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The evaluation for long-lived assets is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows, which is the enterprise level. The assets of the Company with indicators of impairment are evaluated for recoverability by comparing its undiscounted future cash flows with its carrying value. If the carrying value is greater than the undiscounted future cash flows, we then measure the asset’s fair value to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. If the resulting fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value. There are no impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Inventories

Inventories

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs include materials and direct labor on a first-in-first-out basis. We review inventory quantities on hand and record provisions for estimated excess, slow moving, and obsolete inventory. The evaluation of the carrying value of our inventories takes into consideration such factors as historical and anticipated future sales compared to quantities on hand and the prices we expect to obtain for products. We adjust excess and obsolete inventories to net realizable value, and write-downs of excess and obsolete inventories are recorded as a component of cost of revenues. See Note 8 – Inventories, for further details.

See Note 7 - Inventories for further details.

Leases

Leases

The Company accounts for leases under ASC 842, Leases. The core principle of this standard is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases, by recognizing in the condensed consolidated balance sheets a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term.

The Company recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating leases. This classification dictates whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

The Company’s leases are capitalized at the present value of the minimum lease payments not yet paid. The Company uses either the rate implicit in the lease, if readily determinable, or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for a period comparable to the lease term in order to calculate the net present value of the lease liability.

Short-term leases (leases with an initial term of 12 months or less or leases that are cancelable by the lessee and lessor without significant penalties) are not capitalized but are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has one short term operating lease for the Company’s combined office and warehouse facility located in Buford, Georgia.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Overview

The Company’s sales revenue includes revenues related to deliveries of new CT Sentinel scanning systems, and specific other products and services that meet the definition of a performance obligation under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, including when-and-if-available operating system updates and bins. We recognize revenue from CT Sentinel scanning systems upon customer acceptance. Customer acceptance occurs at the earlier of when the customer provides notice or within 30 days of customer receipt of goods. We recognize revenue on bins once goods are at the shipping points. Revenue attributable to when-and-if-available

operating system updates, if material, are recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected ownership life of the CT Sentinel scanning systems, as we have a stand-ready obligation to deliver such services to the customer. All our revenue for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was recognized at point-in-time upon customer acceptance.

For our performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price using the expected cost plus a margin approach. Standalone selling prices are estimated by considering costs used to develop and deliver the service, third-party pricing of similar options and other information that may be available. The Company recognizes its revenues net of any value-added or sales tax. Payments are received at three milestone dates including at contract inception, upon delivery and after customer acceptance.

The Company currently has one customer to whom it sells its baggage scanning systems, which is a distributor. We act as principal in this transaction as we are primarily responsible for fulfilling the contract and have inventory risk, and thus record the gross amount earned within total revenue. Baggage scanning systems including fixed gantry detectors, image-processing units and conveyance systems are sold as a combined baggage scanning system. Training services designed to enable distributor customers to service baggage scanning systems they sell to end users of such systems are deemed to be immaterial in the context of the contract.

Restocking fees

Restocking fees for goods expected to be returned are included in the estimate of the transaction price at contract inception and recorded as revenue when control of the good transfers. Restocking costs are recorded as a reduction of the amount of return assets when control of the good is transferred to the customer. There were no goods expected to be returned at contract inception. No restocking fees were incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2025 or 2024, respectively.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company has one reportable operating segment. Currently the Company has only one revenue contract, all of which relates to a customer located in North America.

Contract Balances

Contract liabilities are included within the deferred revenues in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not have any material contract assets.

Deferred revenue represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to its customers for which it has already received consideration (or the amount is due) from the customer. The Company’s deferred revenue balance primarily relates to contract advances. Deferred revenue in the amount of $1,256,236 and $1,621,707 were recorded in the Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company recognized revenue, included in the prior year balance, in the amount of $365,471 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. No revenue was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

There were no goods expected to be returned at contract inception. No restocking fees have been incurred for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company has one reportable operating segment. Revenue is disaggregated from contracts by geography, which the Company believes best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Currently the Company has only one revenue contract, all of which relates to a customer located in North America.

Contract Balances

Contract liabilities are included within the deferred revenues in the Balance Sheets. The Company does not have any material contract assets.

Deferred revenue represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to its customers for which it has already received consideration from the customer. The Company’s deferred revenue balance primarily relates to contract advances. Deferred revenue in the amount of $1,621,707, and $1,023,007, and $ 0 were recorded in the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

The Company recognized revenue, included in the prior year balance, in the amount of $325,300 for the year ended December 31, 2024. No revenue was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Research and Development

Research and Development

Research and development costs for prototype scanning machines were expensed as incurred because they have no alternative future use beyond their current testing programs and therefore no economic benefit in the future. Labor costs, including salaries, employee benefits, payroll taxes, and third-party contractor expenses, were expensed as incurred.

Unit-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation

Following the completion of the Business Combination on January 2, 2025, the Company filed a registration statement with the SEC to register 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock on February 18, 2025, which may be issued pursuant to awards under the Equity Incentive Plan of ScanTech AI Systems Inc. (the “2025 Equity Incentive Plan”). The number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan is equal to 15% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after the closing of the Business Combination (calculated on a fully diluted basis).

The 2025 Equity Incentive Plan provides for noncash equity-based compensation through the grant of Common Stock. Stock-based compensation is based on the fair value of the Common Stock on the grant date, as determined by the daily price movement of the Nasdaq stock market. Compensation expense is recognized over the period from the grant date through the expected vest date.

Unit-Based Compensation

The Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”) as revised by the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan provide for noncash equity-based compensation through the grant of Series C units. In addition, the Company has issued Series B units as compensation to advisors and vendors. Unit-based compensation is based on the fair value of the member units on the grant date, as determined using an option pricing method (“OPM”). The OPM considers the various terms that would affect the distributions to each class of equity based upon the estimated total equity value of the Company on the grant date, the estimated timing of a future liquidity event including probabilities of different events occurring, the level of seniority among the different classes of securities, dividend policy, and the contractual conversion ratios. In addition, the method implicitly considers the effect of the liquidation preferences as of the estimated future liquidation event and date. Under the OPM, each class of equity is modeled as a call option with a distinct claim on the total equity value of the Company. The characteristics of each class of security, including but not limited to any liquidation preference of the preferred units, determine the class of security’s’ claim on the equity value.

Net loss per unit

Net Income (Loss) per Share

The Company computes basic net income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) attributable to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per unit is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive issuances of shares using the treasury stock method for warrants and the if-converted method for convertible notes. When the Company incurs a net loss, the effect of the Company’s outstanding warrants and convertible notes are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Net loss per unit

The Company computes basic net loss per unit by dividing net loss attributable to members by the weighted average number of units outstanding. Diluted loss per unit is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive issuances of units using the treasury Unit method for warrants and the if-converted method for convertible notes. When the Company incurs a net loss, the effect of the

Company’s outstanding warrants and convertible notes are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per unit as the effect would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, basic and diluted net loss per unit is identical.

Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credit

Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credit

The Company accounts for Georgia R&D tax credits as current assets on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. Georgia R&D tax credits are calculated at the time of annual state income tax filing, and management considers R&D tax credits to be assets once the Georgia Department of Revenue approves the R&D tax credit calculation. The Company is permitted to elect to apply credits to future state employer payroll withholding or income taxes. When the Company elects to apply R&D tax credits to employer payroll withholding, application of R&D tax credits reduces the liability for employer payroll withholding for the quarter in which such tax credits are applied.
