- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Please see Note 2 -Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K”), filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026, for a description of all significant accounting policies.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are included in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year due primarily to the impact of the continued uncertainty of general economic conditions that may impact the Company’s markets for the remainder of fiscal year 2026. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentration
Cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Certain of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balances exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits or are invested in money market accounts with investment banks that are not FDIC-insured. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. As of September 30, 2026, $328,388 of the cash and cash equivalents balance were not FDIC-insured or were in excess of FDIC limits.
Restricted Cash
The following table provides a reconciliation of Cash and cash equivalents, and Restricted cash reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of the periods presented:
| (in thousands) | September 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | $328,888 | $35,548 |
| Restricted cash | 2,000 | 4,000 |
| Total Cash and cash equivalents, and Restricted cash shown on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows | $330,888 | $39,548 |
Amounts included in restricted cash represent collateral for an irrevocable standby letter of credit required to meet contractual terms of a lease agreement held by the Company. See Note 9 -Long-Term Debt, Net of Debt Discount and Financing Fees -Other Credit Facilities.
Shares Withheld to Satisfy Employee Tax Obligations
Upon vesting or settlement of certain share‑based awards, the Company may withhold a portion of the shares otherwise issuable to employees in order to satisfy statutory income and payroll tax withholding requirements. The shares withheld are not issued and therefore are not considered shares repurchased by the Company or reported as treasury stock. The Company records a liability for the amount of taxes to be remitted to tax authorities, and such cash payments are classified as financing activities within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03 —Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)— Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 —Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to provide additional disclosure about certain types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the statement of operations, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion.

- Income Taxes
The Company hasnot recorded material income tax expense or income tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 due to the generation of fiscal year net operating losses, the benefits of which have been fully reserved.
Deferred income taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet approach, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by enacted state and federal tax rates. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that a portion or none of the deferred tax assets will be realized. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, management assessed the realizability of deferred tax assets. After consideration of all the evidence, including reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income and other factors, management determined that a full valuation allowance was necessary as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. A portion of the net operating loss carryforwards may expire due to limitations imposed by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). In addition, future utilization of the available net operating loss carryforwards may be limited under IRC Section 382 as a result of changes in ownership.
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the U.S. The Company’s remaining open tax years subject to examination by federal tax authorities include the years ended December 31, 2022 through 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) completed examining the Company’s 2021 federal income tax return with no material findings. The Company’s remaining open tax years subject to examination by state and foreign tax authorities include the years ended December 31, 2021 through 2025. However, for tax years 2004 through 2021, federal and state taxing authorities may examine and adjust loss carryforwards in the years in which those loss carryforwards are ultimately utilized.
- Segments
The Company determines its operating segments in accordance with FASBASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”). ASC 280 defines operating segments as components where discrete financial information is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which for the Company is the Chief Executive Officer, to determine resource allocation and assess performance. As such, based on the way the CODM monitors and makes decisions affecting operations, the Company has concluded that it hasone operating and reportable segment. The CODM is regularly provided with only the consolidated expenses as noted on the face of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As the Company has onlyone operating segment and is managed on a consolidated basis, the measure of profit or loss is consolidated net income or loss. The metrics are used to review operating trends, to perform analytical comparisons between periods and to monitor budget to actual variances.

Legal Proceedings
The Company is and may be subject to various claims, lawsuits and proceedings in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any legal proceeding or other loss contingency involving the Company, in the opinion of management, such claims are either adequately covered by insurance or otherwise indemnified, or are not expected individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material, adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows in a particular period could be materially affected by these contingencies.
