Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (we, us, our, or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our most recent Form 10-K. We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. All adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly and year to date operating results are reflected herein. The results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Seasonality
Historically, we have experienced seasonality in our first and fourth fiscal quarters, and we expect this trend to continue. In the U.S., we have experienced, and may in the future experience, higher sales in the fourth quarter as a result of patients having paid their annual insurance deductibles in full, thereby reducing their out-of-pocket costs. Conversely, in the first quarter, many U.S. patients' insurance deductibles reset, requiring more out-of-pocket costs, which negatively impacts our sales during this period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (ASU 2024-03). The guidance requires the disclosure of additional information related to certain costs and expenses, including amounts of inventory purchases, employee compensation, and depreciation and amortization included in each income statement line item. ASU 2024-03 also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and our definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods within the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this ASU may have on our financial statements and disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Topic 350): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU modifies the criteria for when software costs may be capitalized by eliminating consideration of software project development stages and by enhancing guidance for the "probable-to-complete" threshold. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this ASU may have on our financial statements and disclosures.
We have reviewed and considered all other recent accounting pronouncements that have not yet been adopted and believe there are none that could potentially have a material impact on our business practices, financial condition, results of operations, or disclosures.
