Nature of the Company’s Business Creative Realities, Inc. is a Minnesota corporation that provides innovative digital marketing technology and solutions to retail companies, individual retail brands, enterprises and organizations throughout the United States and in certain international markets. The Company has expertise in a broad range of existing and emerging digital marketing technologies, as well as the related media management and distribution software platforms and networks, device management, product management, customized software service layers, systems, experiences, workflows, and integrated solutions. Our technology and solutions include digital merchandising systems and omni-channel customer engagement systems, interactive digital shopping assistants, advisors and kiosks, and other interactive marketing technologies such as mobile, social media, point-of-sale transactions, beaconing and web-based media that enable our customers to transform how they engage with consumers. We have expertise in a broad range of existing and emerging digital marketing technologies, as well as the following related aspects of our business: content, network management, and connected device software and firmware platforms; customized software service layers; hardware platforms; digital media workflows; and proprietary processes and automation tools. Our main operations are conducted directly through Creative Realities, Inc., and under our wholly owned subsidiaries, Cineplex Digital Media Inc., a Canadian corporation (“CDMI”), and Cineplex Digital Media U.S. Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CDMUS”). Liquidity and Financial Condition In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASU 205-40”), the Company is required to evaluate whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, there was substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date those respective financial statements were issued. These conclusions resulted from a combination of factors, including recurring net losses and cash used in operating activities, the ongoing integration of the Cineplex Digital Media business that the Company acquired on November 7, 2025 (see Note 4), which expected synergies and financial impacts were not yet fully known, and the dependence on improving cash flows from operations or securing additional sources of liquidity (or both), to fund ongoing operations to meet the Company’s financial obligations. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $76,487, cash and cash equivalents of $10,703 and negative working capital of $3,716. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 the Company began realizing synergies and cost savings from the acquisition of the Cineplex Digital Media business. Accordingly, the Company was able to improve its operating results (net loss of $3,896, which was reduced from a net loss of $7,461 during the prior quarter) and generated positive cash flows from operating activities of $1,003 for the six months ended June 30, 2026. In addition, on June 30, 2026, the Company completed an underwritten public offering and received net proceeds of $10,784. These actions have alleviated the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern that previously existed, and accordingly, there no longer exists substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least twelve months after these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company expects that its cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash to be generated from operations and availability under its revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund its operations for at least twelve months from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company continues to monitor ongoing compliance with its credit facilities and will continue to monitor its ability to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company may need to seek additional forms of debt or equity financing in the future. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing on terms that are satisfactory to the Company, when the Company requires it, the Company’s ability to continue to grow or support the business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, which may adversely affect the Company’s business plans.
