Restructuring, Impairments, and Related Charges

Note 15—Restructuring, Impairments, and Related Charges

 

In January 2025, we initiated a corporate restructuring aimed to reduce headcount at GuruShots and other operating expenses, and ultimately resulting in the closure of our Norway operations. This restructuring allows us to consolidate our workforce in Lithuania and Israel, streamlining operations, driving efficiency and reducing expenses beyond compensation, and is designed to position us for sustainable growth and support our strategic objectives.

 

In connection with this initiative, the Company instituted moves expected to result in the reduction of its total global headcount by approximately 22% and recognized restructuring charges of $577,000 and $1.1 million, primarily consisting of employee termination benefit, which were recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2025, respectively.

 

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to software to be sold, leased, or marketed in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed related to GuruShots. The Company evaluates these long-lived assets for impairment whenever circumstances arise that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company’s strategic reassessment of GuruShots’ operations in connection with the restructuring initiative resulted in a $0.8 million impairment of capitalized software and technology development costs which is recorded in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months ended April 30, 2025.
