Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial information has been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting purposes. The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, changes in equity, and comprehensive loss and cash flows for each period presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The operating results presented in these unaudited interim condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Liquidity and Going Concern

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company has experienced recurring net losses from operations, negative cash flows from operating activities, and a significant accumulated deficit since its inception and expects to continue to incur net losses into the foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had approximately $3.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, $6.2 million in short-term investments, $0.5 million in restricted cash and investments, and working capital of $14.8 million. The $0.5 million of restricted cash is included in an Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit (“Letter of Credit”) set to expire on September 30, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had fully redeemed the outstanding principal balance under the Debentures (see Note 5 (Debt) to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company used $10.4 million of cash in operations and had an accumulated deficit of $735.3 million as of June 30, 2026.

Management expects operating losses and negative cash flows to continue for at least the next year as the Company continues to incur costs related to product development and commercialization efforts. Management has prepared cash flows forecasts which indicate that based on the Company’s expected operating losses and negative cash flows, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve months after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026, are issued. Management’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional funding. Management’s plans to raise additional capital to fulfill its operating and capital requirements for at least twelve months include public or private equity or debt financings. However, the Company may not be able to secure such financing in a timely manner or on favorable terms, if at all, and if the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital in the very near term, it may need to further curtail or cease operations and seek protection by filing a voluntary petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code.

Furthermore, if the Company issues equity securities to raise additional funds, its existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the Company’s existing stockholders.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the outcome of this uncertainty.

Significant Accounting Policies

Significant Accounting Policies

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Restructuring Expenses

Restructuring Expenses

The Company’s restructuring expense primarily consisted of actions taken in May and October 2023 (the “2023 Workforce Reductions”) and March and September 2024 (the “2024 Workforce Reductions”) in order to reduce costs and improve operations and manufacturing efficiency. Severance-related costs were accounted for as a one-time termination benefit communicated by period end without an additional service component, so the charge represented the total amount expected to be incurred. As a result of reducing facility costs and discretionary spending unrelated to headcount and combined with the cost savings from the 2023 Workforce Reductions and 2024 Workforce Reductions, such plans were intended to decrease expenses and maintain a streamlined organization to support the Company’s business. No restructuring charges were incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets (including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets (including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets)

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment if indicators of potential impairment exist. If the Company identifies a change in the circumstances related to its long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets, that indicates the carrying value of any such asset may not be recoverable, the Company will perform an impairment analysis. A long-lived asset is not recoverable when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset (or asset group) are less than the asset’s carrying amount. Any required impairment loss would be measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, and would be recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operating expense. No impairment losses were recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Inventories

Inventories

The Company reviews its inventories for classification purposes. The value of inventories not expected to be realized in cash, sold or consumed during the next 12 months are classified as non-current within other long-term assets. As of June 30, 2026, $1.8 million of inventories were included in other long-term assets.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s excess and obsolete inventory reserve balance was $2.8 million.

Loss on Disposal of Property and Equipment

Loss on disposal of property and equipment

Loss on disposal of property and equipment includes the net book value of assets that have been abandoned or retired and consists primarily of our leasehold improvements, furniture, equipment and fixtures that were abandoned and disposed of in the normal course of business. The Company recorded an immaterial loss on disposal of property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and a $0.3 million loss on disposal of property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Interim Chief Executive Officer. The Company has determined it has one operating and reportable segment. Segment information is consistent with how management reviews the business, makes investing and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance. The Company’s measure of segment performance on a consolidated basis is consolidated net loss, which the CODM uses to allocate resources, after considering the Company’s strategic priorities, its cash balance, and its expected use of cash. In making resource allocation decisions, the CODM also evaluates budgeted results compared to actual performance. The measure of segment assets is reported on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as total assets. Refer to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the Company’s measure of profit (loss). See also Note 9 (Segment Reporting) in the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Tax Legislation

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements. The amendments are 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 should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements. This ASU will improve the navigability of required interim disclosures and clarify when that guidance is applicable, and will require entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. This ASU is effective for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the standard for the interim periods within the year ending December 31, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements. This ASU addresses suggestions received from stakeholders regarding the ASC and makes other incremental improvements to GAAP. The update represents changes to the ASC that clarify, correct errors in or make other improvements to a variety of topics that are intended to make it easier to understand and apply, including amendments to clarify the calculation of earnings per share when a loss from continuing operations exists. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the amendments to ASC 260 retrospectively. All other amendments may be applied prospectively or

retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Issued Tax Legislation

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The provisions of OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of OBBBA provisions with future effective dates on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the year ending December 31, 2026.
