2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2026, and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The condensed balance sheet at March 31, 2026, was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements.

Accounting Policies, Significant Judgments, and Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions, and such differences could be material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Significant estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition and valuation of the Company’s options to purchase common stock for purposes of accounting for stock-based compensation.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in checking accounts and money market funds. The Company has not experienced any losses to date.

The Company’s accounts receivable are derived solely from product and subscription sales to customers located in the United States. The Company performs periodic evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally requires no collateral from its customers. Credit losses historically have not been significant. No customers comprised 10% or more of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. No customers comprised 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2026, or December 31, 2025.

Bank failures, events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance, or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, or concerns or rumors about such events, may lead to liquidity constraints. The failure of a bank, or other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets impacting financial institutions at which the Company maintains balances, could adversely impact liquidity and financial performance. There can be no assurance that the Company’s deposits in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or other comparable insurance limits will be backstopped by the U.S. or applicable foreign governments, or that

any bank or financial institution with which the Company does business will be able to obtain needed liquidity from other banks, government institutions, or by acquisition in the event of a failure or liquidity crisis. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are primarily held in money market funds.

Information About Segment and Geographic Areas

The Company operates and manages its business as one reportable and operating segment. The Company generates revenue from two recurring sources. Product revenue is generated by the sale of the Company’s disposable headbands and headcaps (“Wearables”) that are intended for single patient use. Subscription revenue is generated by monthly subscription fees charged to the Company’s hospital customers for use of Clarity, recorders, and its portal. The Company has one reportable segment due to the similar customer base of its products and subscriptions and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature and compatibility of products and subscriptions; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes.

In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), the Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The Company's measure of segment profit or loss is loss from operations. The CODM utilizes the Company's financial information such as loss from operations derived from revenues and operating expenses included in the Company forecast, performance metrics, and budget versus actual analyses on an aggregate basis for purposes of evaluating financial performance and how to best allocate resources across functions when developing and reviewing the annual budget to achieve the Company's long term objectives. Significant expenses regularly provided to the CODM within loss from operations include cost of revenue, research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, which are each separately presented on the Company’s Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Balance Sheets as total assets. Since the Company operates in one segment, all accounting policies and financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the summary of significant accounting policies, the revenue footnote, and the accompanying annual financial statements. All of the Company’s revenue was in the United States for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Long-lived assets held outside of the United States were $0.9 million as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

License Agreement

The Company has an in-license arrangement with Stanford University whereby the Company owes low-single digit royalty percentages related to revenue that is derived pursuant to in-licensed technologies, subject to a minimum payment. Royalty obligations are expensed as cost of revenue in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, when incurred or over the minimum royalty periods and have not been material. On June 12, 2025, the Company extended the exclusivity of the licensed patents to the date the last licensed patent expires in May 2036 for a term exercise fee of $250,000. As the in-licensed technologies are used to generate revenue, the exercise fee has been deferred in other assets and will be amortized to cost of revenue on a straight-line basis through May 2036.

Related Party Transactions

The Company paid Dr. Parvizi, a Director and Co-Founder of the Company, for consulting services and reimbursement of related expenses and recorded such amounts as general and administrative expenses within the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Expenses related to Dr. Parvizi were $49,000 for both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendment requires more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on the Company's disclosures.
