2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and as required by S-X, Rule 10-1. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for a complete set of Financial Statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and notes have been prepared on the same basis as the audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, and include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the interim periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual Financial Statements and notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2026. The Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or for any other interim period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make informed estimates that require assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially under different assumptions and conditions.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the notes to the Condensed Financial Statements for the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company's previously reported Condensed Balance Sheets, Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, Condensed Statements of Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity (Deficit), or the Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

“Cash and cash equivalents” in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets consist of bank deposits and highly liquid investments, including money market fund accounts, U.S. Treasury securities, corporate bonds, commercial paper, and certificates of deposit, with original maturities of three months or less from the purchase date. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents are valued at cost, which approximate their fair value.

Restricted Cash

“Restricted cash” in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 represents cash held as collateral for the Company’s facility leases.

Short-Term Investments

“Short-term investments” in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets represent investments in certificates of deposit which are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, and have original maturities of greater than 90 days but within one year. Accrued interest earned on short-term investments is recorded within “prepaid expenses and other current assets” on the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets.

Marketable Securities

“Marketable securities” in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets represents investments in U.S. Treasury securities, corporate bonds, and commercial paper. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation at each balance sheet date. The Company has classified and accounted for its marketable securities as available-for-sale debt securities. The Company may sell these securities at any time for use in its current operations or for other purposes, including prior to maturity. As a result, the Company has classified its marketable securities within current assets on the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets. Debt securities with original maturities of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents.

Available-for-sale debt securities are recorded at fair value each reporting period. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related available-for-sale debt security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Interest income is recognized when earned. Accrued interest earned on marketable securities is recorded within “prepaid expenses and other current assets” on the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets. Unrealized gains and losses on these marketable securities are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until realized. Realized gains and losses are determined based on the specific identification method and are reported in other income, net in the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its entire amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through other income, net in the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. If neither of these criteria are met, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost is due to credit or non-credit-related factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. Credit-related unrealized losses are recognized as an allowance for expected credit losses of available-for-sale securities on the Condensed Balance Sheets with a corresponding charge in other income, net in the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Non-credit-related unrealized losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

“Accounts receivable, net of allowances” in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets are presented net of allowances for credit losses. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses for accounts receivable, which is recorded as an offset to accounts receivable. Changes in this allowance are recorded as “general and administrative” expense in the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The allowance represents our estimate of uncollectible customer accounts based on specific customer circumstances, historical loss rates and the aging of outstanding receivables.

The Company maintained an allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable of $2.8 million and $1.7 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.7 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $1.1 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Concentrations of Financial Instrument Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents in deposits at financial institutions that may exceed federally insured limits and certain accounts receivable balances. Risks associated with cash and cash equivalents are mitigated by banking with creditworthy institutions with platforms that administer deposits across multiple banks within federally insured limits. Additionally, the Company invests cash in certificates of deposit through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) account. Under the CDARS program, large deposits are allocated among multiple FDIC (“Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation”) insured member banks in increments of less than $250,000 per institution. As a result, substantially all such deposits are eligible for FDIC insurance coverage. The Company also invests in U.S. Treasury securities, corporate bonds, commercial paper, and money market funds through a managed investment account. The Company limits its credit risk related to these investments by investing in highly rated securities in accordance with its investment policy.

The Company mitigates potential losses from uncollectible accounts receivable through its credit approval and ongoing collection and customer monitoring activities. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its financial instruments and believes that it has adequately recorded allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable in each reported period.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have accounts receivable balances from any one customer exceeding 10% of total accounts receivable. The Company did not have revenue from any one customer exceeding 10% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying Condensed Balance Sheets. These accounts are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The authoritative accounting guidance on fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are publicly accessible at the measurement date.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but that are corroborated by market data. These inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or quoted market prices in markets that are not active to the general public.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments consisting of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, marketable securities, accounts receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short maturities for each.

Assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The Company reviews the fair value hierarchy classification on a quarterly basis. Changes in the ability to observe valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain assets or liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. The Company did not have any transfers of assets and liabilities between the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented.

The Company did not have available-for-sale debt securities as of December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, all marketable securities had contractual maturities of less than one year.

The Company periodically reviews the available-for-sale securities for other-than-temporary impairment loss. For available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their

amortized cost bases. Accordingly, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment losses.

Inventory

Production is initiated upon surgeon approval of the digital surgical plan for each patient, and implant inventory is not made-to-stock, allowing the Company to maintain minimal inventory. Work-in-process inventory consists of titanium alloy implants for spine fusion surgical procedures, pending sterilization and packaging. Finished goods inventory is ready for shipment to the customer for use in a spine fusion surgical procedure.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined by the specific identification method. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its inventories for obsolescence, based on notification of permanently canceled surgeries and ongoing estimates of permanent cancellations. The Company records the corresponding charge for obsolete inventory through “cost of sales.”

The components of reported “inventory” are as follows:

Warrant Liabilities

Prior to the closing of the IPO on July 24, 2025, the Company had issued warrants to purchase convertible preferred stock in conjunction with the Customers Loan Agreement (see Note 4). The Company accounted for its issued convertible preferred stock warrants as liabilities in accordance with ASC 480. The liability-classified warrants were initially measured at fair value, resulting in an implied discount on the related financing arrangement that was deferred as an asset as it relates to tranches of the Customers Loan Agreement. The deferred asset was recorded within “other assets” on the Condensed Balance Sheet and was amortized into interest expense using the straight-line method over the period in which the Company could draw on the remaining tranches of the credit facility. Changes in fair value of the warrant liabilities were recognized in the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Immediately prior to the IPO, the Series B Warrant and Series C Warrants were exercisable into up to 58,420 and 20,375 of Series B convertible preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred stock, respectively. In conjunction with the IPO, all of the outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock were converted into common stock. As a result, the Series B Warrant and Series C Warrant that had previously been exercisable for convertible preferred stock became exercisable for common stock. Upon the closing of the IPO on July 24, 2025, the Series B Warrant that was exercisable into 52,776 shares of common stock and the Series C Warrant that was exercisable into 5,093 shares of common stock met the criteria for equity classification and accordingly were reclassified from liabilities to equity. The remainder of shares under each warrant were contingently exercisable on specified revenue and loan draw milestones and remained classified as liabilities because they did not meet the criteria for equity classification.

On September 30, 2025, the Company achieved a revenue milestone, causing 5,095 additional shares of common stock underlying the Series C Warrant to become exercisable and accordingly were reclassified from liabilities to equity as they met the criteria for equity classification.

On October 29, 2025, as a part of the Fifth Amendment to the Customers Loan Agreement, the Series B Warrant and Series C Warrant were amended and restated and the respective remaining 5,644 and 10,187 shares of common stock that were exercisable contingent on loan draw milestones were canceled. On the effective date of the Fifth Amendment, the Company remeasured the warrants for the final time and recognized the change in fair value within the Condensed Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company no longer had any warrants outstanding that were classified as liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, Customers Bank exercised the Series B Warrant and Series C Warrant on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 30,366 shares of common stock. As a result of the exercise, the Series B Warrant and Series C Warrant are no longer outstanding.

The fair value of the warrant liabilities was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a “Level 3” measurement within the fair value hierarchy. Prior to the IPO, the fair values of the warrant liabilities were measured using the “hybrid method.” The hybrid method is often used when a company is expecting a liquidity event in the near future and is a combination of the option-pricing and probability-weighted expected return methods. Estimates and assumptions impacting the fair value measurement included the fair value per share of the underlying shares of convertible preferred stock, the remaining contractual term of the warrants, and probability of number of shares the warrants will become exercisable into. The most significant assumption in the model impacting the fair value of the warrants was the fair value of the Company’s convertible preferred stock as of each remeasurement date. Subsequent to the IPO, the fair value of the warrant liabilities was measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

There were no warrant liabilities outstanding as of or during the six months ended June 30, 2026. A summary of the changes in the total fair value of the warrant liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, is as follows:

Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss encompasses all changes in equity other than those arising from transactions with stockholders. The Company’s other comprehensive loss consists of unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities which are excluded from the reported net loss and presented in the Condensed Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”). This ASU provides entities with the option to elect a practical expedient that assumes that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date will remain unchanged for the remaining life of the asset when developing a reasonable and supportable forecast as part of estimating expected credit losses on these assets. ASU 2025-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 on January 1, 2026. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective

Expense Disaggregation Disclosures - In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). This ASU requires new financial statement disclosures disaggregating prescribed expense categories within relevant income statement expense captions. ASU 2024-03 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard.

Internal-Use Software - In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). This ASU is intended to simplify the capitalization guidance by removing all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. This ASU also requires entities to begin capitalizing software costs when management authorizes and commits to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for its intended purpose. ASU 2025-06 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard.

Derivatives and Share-Based Consideration from a Customer - In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract ("ASU 2025-07"). This ASU provides for a new scope exception to the derivatives guidance for underlyings based on the operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract, and also clarifies that share-based noncash consideration received from a customer as consideration for the transfer of goods or services in a revenue contract is subject to the revenue guidance and not the financial instruments guidance unless and until the company's right to receive or retain the share-based noncash consideration is unconditional as defined in ASU 2025-07. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard.
