Alpha Teknova (NASDAQ: TKNO) lifts Q2 revenue to $12,185 thousand
Alpha Teknova, Inc. produces critical reagents for life‑science research, diagnostics, and therapeutics. For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, revenue was $12,185 thousand, up 18.5% year over year, with gross margin improving to 40.1%. Lab Essentials and Clinical Solutions each grew 17.9%.
The company reported a net loss of $3,170 thousand for the quarter and $7,725 thousand for the first half, modestly better than 2025, as operating expenses grew only 3.4% year to date. Operating cash use fell to $3,830 thousand for the first half from $6,204 thousand a year earlier.
Cash and cash equivalents were $6,004 thousand and short‑term U.S. Treasury investments $11,432 thousand, against $13,218 thousand of long‑term debt, all under a credit facility that requires at least $8.0 million of cash and investments. One distributor customer represented 24% of Q2 revenue, and key suppliers each exceeded 20% of purchases. New risk disclosures highlight potential operational, regulatory, and cybersecurity exposures from increased use of artificial intelligence in operations.

Filing Explained
Existing holders’ share base was higher by June 30, while 6,429,749 options remained outstanding and separate from currently issued shares.
This
As of
The six-month stockholders’ equity statement records 84,236 shares issued upon option exercise, 22,538 shares issued when restricted stock units vested, and 13,719 shares issued under the employee stock purchase plan.
The filing also lists 6,429,749 outstanding stock options, including 3,748,632 exercisable options, and 22,535 restricted stock units outstanding at
These awards and options are not all currently issued shares: the filing excluded 6,141,585 equity-based compensation equivalents from diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.
The specific line items to monitor are future option exercises, restricted-stock vesting, and employee-plan issuances, because each can change the reported common-share count.

We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, business strategy, and financial needs. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2026 (the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K) and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These risks are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Furthermore, new risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ALPHA TEKNOVA, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Teknova manufactures its products at its Hollister, California headquarters and stocks inventory of raw materials, components, and finished goods at that location. The Company ships products directly from its warehouse in Hollister, California.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting, Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations.
The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2026 (the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Refer to “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” within the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a full list of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The information in those notes has not changed except as a result of normal adjustments in the interim periods.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2025-05, which amends Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, to provide an optional practical expedient for estimating expected credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from contracts with customers. Under this practical expedient, entities may elect to assume that conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change over the remaining life of the asset. The Company elected to adopt this practical expedient and applied the guidance prospectively beginning January 1, 2026. The adoption of this ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s condensed financial statements, and the Company does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements in future periods.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires the disaggregation of specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements, as well as a qualitative description of remaining expense amounts that are not separately disaggregated. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and requires prospective application, with the option to apply it retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, which clarifies and modernizes the accounting for costs related to internal-use software in ASC 350-40, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software. The guidance removes references to project stages in ASC 350-40 and clarifies the threshold at which entities begin capitalizing costs. Additionally, it specifies disclosure
10
requirements for capitalized software costs accounted for under ASC 350-40, regardless of how those costs are presented in the financial statements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.
Note 3. Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to allocate resources to a segment and assess its performance. Teknova’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer, currently Stephen Gunstream. Teknova derives revenue primarily in the U.S. through the manufacture and sale of critical reagents. Teknova has determined that it operates as one reporting unit, one operating segment, and one reportable segment, as the CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources, making operating decisions, and evaluating financial performance.
The CODM assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources and make operating decisions based on net loss, as reported in the Condensed Statement of Operations. Net loss is also used to monitor budget versus actual results. Segment assets are measured as total assets, as reported on the balance sheet. Revenues, expenses, and assets requiring disclosure in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, are included in the accompanying financial statements. See the Condensed Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and the Condensed Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, for details.
Note 4. Revenue Recognition
Teknova recognizes revenue from the sale of manufactured products and services when the Company transfers control of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain benefits from the goods or services. The majority of the Company’s sales agreements contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer.
Teknova’s revenue, disaggregated by product category, was as follows (in thousands):

Note 6. Short-term Held-to-Maturity Investments
The Company invests excess cash balances in short-term U.S. Treasuries. Investments are classified based on the facts and circumstances present at the time of purchase. The appropriateness of that classification is subsequently reassessed at each reporting date. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has both the ability and intention to hold these investments until maturity and therefore has classified these investments as held-to-maturity and recorded them at amortized cost which approximates fair value and presented them in “Short-term investments, held-to-maturity” on the Condensed Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Company's short-term investments was based on quoted prices in active markets for these investments (Level 1). The income recognized for these investments was recorded within interest income on the Condensed Statements of Operations.

Note 15. Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive. For purposes of this calculation, stock options, restricted stock units, and employee stock purchase rights, are considered to be common stock equivalents but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive for all periods presented.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Overview
Since our founding in 1996, we have been producing critical reagents for the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel therapies, vaccines, and molecular diagnostics. Our approximately 3,000 customers span the entire continuum of the life sciences market, including leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, contract development and manufacturing organizations, in vitro diagnostic franchises, and academic and government research institutions. Our Company is built around our knowledge, methods, and know-how in our proprietary manufacturing processes, which are highly adaptable and configurable. These proprietary processes enable us to manufacture and deliver high-quality, custom, made-to-order products with short turnaround times and at scale, across all stages of our customers’ product development, from early research through commercialization.
We have two primary product categories: (i) Lab Essentials, and (ii) Clinical Solutions. Our products cross all stages of development, from early research through commercialization. We offer three primary product types: (i) pre-poured media plates for cell growth and cloning; (ii) liquid microbial culture media and supplements for cellular expansion; and (iii) molecular biology reagents for sample manipulation, resuspension, and purification. Our liquid microbial culture media and supplements and molecular biology reagents are available in both of our two primary product categories; pre-poured media plates are available in our Lab Essentials category only.
We are ISO 13485:2016 certified, enabling us to manufacture products for use in diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Our certification allows us to offer solutions across the entire customer product development workflow, supporting our customers’ need for materials in greater volume and that meet increasingly stringent quality requirements as they scale from research to commercialization.
We manufacture our products at our Hollister, California headquarters and stock inventory of raw materials, components, and finished goods at that campus. We rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain raw materials, and we have no long-term supply arrangements with our suppliers, as we order on a purchase order basis. We ship our products directly from our warehouse in Hollister, California, to our customers and distributors, generally pursuant to purchase orders. We typically recognize revenue when products are shipped.
We generated revenue of $12.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, which represented an increase of $1.9 million compared to revenue of $10.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, only 4.3% and 5.0%, respectively, of our revenue was generated from customers located outside of the United States. We generated revenue of $23.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, which represents an increase of $3.2 million compared to revenue of $20.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, only 4.5% and 5.1%, respectively, of our revenue was generated from customers located outside of the United States. Our sales outside of the United States are denominated in U.S. Dollars. We primarily generate sales through direct channels and a small salesforce, supported by an established network of distributors.
We had an operating loss of $2.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $3.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. We had an operating loss of $7.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $8.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. While our expenses may fluctuate over the short term, we expect our expenses will increase in future periods, but at a slower rate, in connection with our ongoing activities as we:

Impact of Broader Economic Trends on Our Business
We continue to closely monitor economic uncertainty in the U.S. and abroad. General inflation in the U.S. rose in recent years to levels not experienced in recent decades. While the rate of inflation has moderated in recent years, general inflation, including rising prices for our raw materials and other inputs, tariffs, as well as rising salaries and other expenses, can negatively impact our business by increasing our cost of sales and operating expenses. Inflation, together with uncertainty regarding future interest rate changes, and broader macroeconomic uncertainty, may cause our customers to reduce, delay, or cancel orders for our goods and services, thereby causing a decrease in or change in the timing of sales of our products and services. We cannot predict the impact of future inflation and interest rate changes on the results of our operations. Furthermore, changes to tariff and related international trade policy that began in 2025 have created uncertainty about the broader economy and our business. For further information regarding the impact of these economic factors on the Company, please see the risk factors identified in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Total revenue was $12.2 million and $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Lab Essentials revenue was $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $1.4 million, or 17.9%, compared to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in Lab Essentials revenue was attributable to higher average revenue per customer and, to a slightly lesser extent, an increased number of customers.
Clinical Solutions revenue was $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $0.4 million, or 17.9%, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in Clinical Solutions revenue was attributable to an increased number of customers, partially offset by lower average revenue per customer.

Gross profit percentage was 40.1% and 38.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher fixed cost absorption into cost of goods sold from faster finished goods inventory turns. This compares to the same period in the prior year that had benefited from unusually favorable manufacturing efficiency gains.

Research and development expenses were consistent at $0.6 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Sales and marketing expenses were $2.1 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher headcount and increased marketing expenses.
General and administrative expenses were $4.8 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by increased professional fees.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were (1.0%) and (0.5)%, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.

Total revenue was $23.3 million and $20.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Lab Essentials revenue was $17.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $1.7 million, or 10.5%, compared to $15.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in Lab Essentials revenue was attributable to an increased number of customers and, to a lesser extent, higher average revenue per customer.
Clinical Solutions revenue was $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $1.4 million, or 41.9%, compared to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in Clinical Solutions revenue was attributable to an increased number of customers, partially offset by lower average revenue per customer.

Gross profit percentage was 37.3% and 34.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher fixed cost absorption into cost of goods sold from faster finished goods inventory turns. This compares to the same period in the prior year that had benefited from unusually favorable manufacturing efficiency gains.

Research and development expenses were consistent at $1.2 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Sales and marketing expenses were $4.3 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher headcount and increased marketing expenses.
General and administrative expenses were $9.9 million and $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation expense.
Amortization of intangible assets was consistent at $0.6 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Total other (expenses) income, net was an expense of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to income of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in total other expense, net was primarily attributable to the $0.5 million adjustment recognized on the exit fee concurrent with the refinancing of our credit agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2025 coupled with lower interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Our income tax expense was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and not significant for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were (1.0)% and (0.5)% respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate primarily due to operating losses not expected to produce an income tax benefit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary sources of financing for our operations are our (i) registered direct offering and concurrent private placement completed in September 2023, which resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of $22.9 million before deducting offering expenses of $0.4 million and the prepayment of $10.0 million of the Term Loan, and (ii) private placement completed in July 2024, which resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of $15.4 million before deducting offering expenses of $0.2 million.
Our principal liquidity requirements are to fund our operations and capital expenditures. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred net losses of $7.7 million. In addition, as of June 30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $143.5 million and $13.2 million in borrowings outstanding under our Term Loan (defined below). As of June 30, 2026, we had $24.0 million in net working capital, which included $17.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Our material cash requirements from known contractual obligations and commitments relate primarily to operating leases for our office, manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution facilities at June 30, 2026. See “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 9. Leases,” for a discussion of our lease obligations reflected on our Condensed Balance Sheets.
In addition to our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, our principal source of liquidity is our credit facility. On March 3, 2025, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with MidCap Financial Trust (MidCap) which provides for loan commitments in an aggregate amount of up to $28.245 million consisting of a $23.245 million senior secured term loan (Term Loan) and a $5.0 million working capital facility (Revolver). The Term Loan consists of the $12.135 million balance outstanding under the previous term loan, plus an additional $1.110 million related to the exit fee that would otherwise have been due upon closing of the Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement, as well as an additional tranche of $10.0 million that may become available for use in an acquisition, with MidCap’s consent. As of June 30, 2026, there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolver, and $3.4 million was available based on borrowing base estimates. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement includes minimum net revenue requirements that are measured on a trailing twelve-month basis and a minimum cash requirement throughout the term of the agreement. The minimum cash requirement is $8.0 million, which includes cash and cash equivalents as well as short-term investments in U.S. Treasuries. We were in compliance with our financial covenants under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2026. See “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 12. Long-Term Debt, Net” for a more detailed discussion of the material terms of our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
On July 10, 2025, we filed a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (Reg. No. 333-288613) with the SEC, which was declared effective on July 16, 2025. This shelf registration statement, which includes a base prospectus, allows us at any time to offer any combination of securities described in the prospectus in one or more offerings for our own account in an aggregate amount up to $225 million. The Form S-3 is intended to provide us flexibility to conduct registered sales of our securities, subject to market conditions and our future capital needs. The terms of any future offering under the shelf registration statement will be established at the time of such offering and will be described in a prospectus supplement filed with the SEC prior to the completion of any such offering.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 consisted primarily of net loss, adjusted for certain non-cash items, and changes in working capital and other operating activities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which primarily consisted of net loss of $7.7 million plus net adjustments for non-cash charges of $5.4 million, offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.5 million. The primary non-cash adjustments to net loss included $3.2 million of depreciation and amortization, $1.3 million of stock-based compensation, and a $0.8 million provision for inventory. The main drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were a $0.8 million increase in accounts receivable, a $0.7 million increase in inventories, and a $0.7 million decrease in accrued liabilities, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $0.2 million decrease in other non-current assets, and a $0.2 million increase in accounts payable.
Net cash used in operating activities was $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which primarily consisted of net loss of $8.2 million plus net adjustments for non-cash charges of $5.4 million, offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $3.4 million. The primary non-cash adjustments to net loss included $3.2 million of depreciation and amortization, $1.8 million of stock-based compensation, and $0.9 million provision for inventory, partially offset by an adjustment to the loan exit fee of $0.5 million, and amortization of the discount on short-term investments of $0.4 million. The main drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were a $1.7 million increase in inventories, a $1.2 million decrease in accrued liabilities, and a $0.9 million increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in accounts payable.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which consisted of maturities of short-term investments of $12.0 million, partially offset by purchases of short-term investments of $7.9 million and purchases of property, plant, and equipment of $0.3 million.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which consisted of maturities of short-term investments of $16.0 million, partially offset by purchases of short-term investments of $9.7 million and purchases of property, plant, and equipment of $0.4 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which was primarily attributable to proceeds of $0.2 million from exercise of stock options and proceeds of $0.1 million from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan, partially offset by the repayment of financed insurance premiums of $0.1 million.
Net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which was primarily attributable to payment of exit fee costs of $1.1 million in connection with entering into the Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement, payment of debt issuance costs of $0.1 million, and repayment of financed insurance premiums of $0.1 million, largely offset by proceeds from long-term debt of $1.1 million and proceeds of $0.1 million from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates, refer to "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" in Part II, Item 7 and the notes to our financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See also “Notes to Financial Statements—Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates since our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company
We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. As long as we qualify as an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:
In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from adopting new or revised accounting standards, and, therefore, we will not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies or that have opted out of using such extended transition period, which may make comparison of our financial statements with those of other public companies more difficult. We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, or, with respect to adoption of certain new or revised accounting standards, until we irrevocably elect to opt out of using the extended transition period.
Under the JOBS Act, we will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of:
We will cease to be an emerging growth company on December 31, 2026, at the latest.
We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company. If we continue as a smaller reporting company, we may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies including (i) an exemption from auditor attestation requirements, (ii) being able to present only two years of audited financial statements in annual reports, and (iii) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. We may continue as a smaller reporting company until the fiscal year following the determination that (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $250.0 million measured on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and our annual revenues are more than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year or (ii) the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700.0 million measured on the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recent accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows is disclosed in “Notes to Financial Statement—Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, for this reporting period and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
26
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
27
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not a party to any material legal proceedings at this time. From time to time, we may become involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. For example, we may in the future become involved in legal proceedings relating to customers, employees, suppliers, competitors, government agencies, or others. We will evaluate any claims and lawsuits with respect to their potential merits, our potential defenses and counter claims, and the expected effect on us of defending the claims and a potential adverse result. However, the results of any litigation, investigation, or other legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and potentially expensive. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, damage our reputation, require significant amounts of management time, and divert significant resources. If any legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to us, or we were to enter into a settlement arrangement, we could be exposed to monetary damages or limits on our ability to operate our business, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
28
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
While we attempt to identify, manage, and mitigate risks and uncertainties associated with our business to the extent practical under the circumstances, some level of risk and uncertainty will always be present. Item 1A—“Risk Factors” in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K describes some of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business, which we strongly encourage you to review. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, projected results, and future prospects. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We have incurred operating losses in the past and may incur losses in the future.
We have incurred operating losses in the past, may incur operating losses in the future and may never achieve or maintain profitability. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred net losses of $3.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively. We have incurred and will continue to incur costs in connection with legal, accounting, and other administrative expenses related to operating as a public company and we expect that our operating expenses will increase modestly with the growth of our business. Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue from our products, the sale of our equity securities, and debt. While our revenue has generally grown over the last several years, including the first six months of 2026 compared to the comparable period of 2025, and 2025 compared to 2024, it decreased in 2023 compared to 2022. If our revenue declines or fails to grow at a rate sufficient to offset our operating expenses, we will not be able to achieve and maintain profitability in future periods. We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or maintain profitability, and our more recent growth and historical profitability should not be considered predictive of our future performance.
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies in our operations may expose us to additional operational, competitive, regulatory, legal, cybersecurity, intellectual property, compliance, and other risks.
We are evaluating and may increasingly incorporate artificial intelligence ("AI"), machine learning, and other emerging technologies into various facets of our operations, including our manufacturing processes, quality systems, and customer-facing activities. While we believe these technologies have the potential to improve efficiency and support our business, their use also introduces operational, regulatory, legal, cybersecurity, intellectual property, compliance, competitive, and other risks that are difficult to predict or fully mitigate.
The algorithms and models underlying AI systems may have limitations, including biases, errors, insufficient or erroneous training data, or an inability to handle certain data types or scenarios. AI-generated content, analyses, or recommendations we utilize could prove inadequate or produce unintended consequences, including data leakage, cybersecurity incidents, or intellectual property infringement. The use of AI technologies in our manufacturing processes, quality systems, or other operational activities could also result in errors, inaccurate outputs, process failures, compliance issues, or other unintended consequences that could adversely affect our operations, product quality, customer relationships, or business results. If our employees use AI technologies in ways that are unauthorized or inconsistent with our policies, our confidential information, intellectual property, or reputation could be put at risk. Furthermore, the platforms providing AI models are in some cases owned and operated by emerging companies with less contractual, business, and compliance sophistication, which may limit our ability to manage these risks effectively.
The regulatory landscape governing the use of AI is rapidly evolving, particularly in California, where we are headquartered, and more broadly across the United States and internationally. California has been among the most active jurisdictions in developing AI-related legislation and regulation, including laws and proposals addressing data privacy, algorithmic accountability, and automated decision-making. New or amended laws, regulations, or guidance could require us to modify or limit our use of these technologies, increase our compliance costs, or expose us to liability. These developing obligations create uncertainty and may prevent or make it harder for us to conduct or enhance our business using AI, or lead to regulatory fines, penalties, or other liability.
The use of AI and related technologies also introduces cybersecurity risks, including vulnerabilities in third-party AI tools or platforms we may adopt and risks related to the integrity or confidentiality of data used to train or operate such systems. A breach or failure of any AI-related system could disrupt our operations, compromise proprietary or sensitive information, or damage our reputation with customers and partners.
In addition, the competitive dynamics of our industry may shift as AI and other emerging technologies become more widely adopted. If our competitors adopt these technologies more effectively than we do, or if new entrants leverage them to develop superior products or more efficient operations, our competitive position could be harmed. Conversely, if we invest in AI technologies that fail to perform as expected or that become obsolete, we may not realize the anticipated benefits and may incur costs without a corresponding return. There can be no assurance that our use of AI or any investments we make in AI will enhance our products or services or be beneficial to our business, including our efficiency or profitability.
29
The legal and liability frameworks surrounding AI remain unsettled, including questions of intellectual property ownership, liability for AI-generated outputs, and potential claims arising from our use of AI in our operations. If we are subject to litigation or regulatory action related to our use of AI, the costs of defending such actions and any resulting damages or penalties could be material.
We will no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” as of December 31, 2026 and, as a result, we will become subject to certain additional regulatory requirements.
We are currently an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” We will cease to qualify as an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2026. We are also currently a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, and we expect to remain a smaller reporting company after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company.
Many of the regulatory exemptions available as an emerging growth company will continue to be available to us because of our status as a smaller reporting company, and therefore we anticipate only modest increases in legal and administrative costs as a result of our loss of our emerging growth company status. However, any failure to timely comply with the additional regularoty requirements that we are not exempted from as a smaller reporting company, could result in stockholder or regulatory scrutiny of our corporate governance practices. In addition, if we cease to qualify as a smaller reporting company in the future, we could become subject to additional regulatory requirements and compliance with these additional requirements could substantially increase our legal and administrative compliance costs.
