Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations Luna Innovations Incorporated (“we,” “Luna Innovations” or the “Company”), headquartered in Roanoke, Virginia, was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1990 and reincorporated in the State of Delaware in April 2003. We are a leader in advanced optical technology, providing high performance fiber optic test, measurement and control products for the telecommunications and photonics industries, and distributed fiber optic sensing solutions that measure, or "sense" the structures for industries ranging from aerospace, automotive, oil and gas, security and infrastructure. Our communications test and control products help customers test their fiber optic networks and assemblies with speed and precision in both lab and production environments, accelerating the development of fiber optic products and assuring accurate testing of optical components like photonic integrated circuits and coherent receivers, which are both critical elements of meeting the world’s exponentially growing demand for bandwidth. Our distributed fiber optic sensing products help designers and manufacturers more efficiently develop new and innovative products by measuring stress, strain, and temperature at a high resolution for new designs or manufacturing processes. Our distributed fiber optic sensing products ensure the safety and structural integrity or operational health of critical assets in the field, by monitoring stress, strain, and vibration in large civil and industrial infrastructure such as bridges, roads, pipelines and borders. We also provide applied research services, primarily under federally funded development programs, that leverage our sensing and instrumentation technologies to meet the specific needs and applications of our customers. Unaudited Interim Financial Information The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statements and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly our financial position at June 30, 2022, results of operations, comprehensive income/(loss) and changes in stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. The consolidated interim financial statements, including our significant accounting policies, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 14, 2022. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment on an annual basis, as of October 1 of each year, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. Purchased intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. We analyze the reasonableness of the remaining useful life whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable to determine whether the carrying value has been impaired. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants. Various valuation approaches can be used to determine fair value, each requiring different valuation inputs. The following hierarchy classifies the inputs used to determine fair value into three levels: • Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. • Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant value drivers are observable. • Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which significant value drivers are unobservable. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amount of lease liabilities approximate fair value because these financial instruments bear interest at rates that approximate current market rates for similar agreements with similar maturities and credit. We consider the terms of the PNC Bank, National Association debt facility, including its floating per annum interest rate of the daily simple secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), plus an SOFR adjustment, plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.50%, to be at market based upon similar instruments that would be available to us. The Company has certain assets and liabilities that have been recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis following an acquisition. Refer to Note 3, Business Acquisition , for the allocation of the total consideration based upon the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Reportable Segments Prior to September 30, 2021, we were organized into two main reporting segments, our Lightwave segment and our Luna Labs segment. We now have one reportable segment, Lightwave, following the determination that our Luna Labs segment met held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria at the end of the third quarter of 2021. On March 8, 2022, we completed the sale of substantially all of our equity interests in Luna Labs. Prior to the sale, our Luna Labs segment performed applied research principally in the areas of sensing and instrumentation, advanced materials, optical technologies and health sciences. See Note 2, Sale of Discontinued Operations, for additional disclosure related to discontinued operations and assets held for sale. The remaining segment, Lightwave, develops, manufactures and markets distributed fiber optic sensing products and fiber optic communications test and control products. Net Income/(Loss) Per Share Basic per share data is computed by dividing our net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common share equivalents that would have been outstanding if potential shares of common stock had been issued using the treasury stock method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, all potentially dilutive securities for stock options and restricted stock unites were excluded as their impact would be anti-dilutive. Foreign Currency For our non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using fiscal period end exchange rates. Sales and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings. Recently Issued Pronouncements, Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires companies to measure financial assets at an amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new accounting rules eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold and, instead, reflect an entity's current estimate of all expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is applicable to our trade receivables. This pronouncement was amended under ASU 2019-10 to allow an extension on the adoption date for entities that qualify as a small reporting company. We have elected this extension and the effective date for us to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13, but we do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Discontinued Operations

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
Sale of Discontinued Operations	Sale of Discontinued Operations On March 8, 2022, we completed the sale of substantially all of our equity interests in our Luna Labs business to certain members of Luna Labs’ senior management team and a group of outside investors for an initial purchase price of $20.4 million before working capital and escrow adjustments and transaction expenses. Total consideration included $13.0 million of cash received at closing, $2.5 million in the form of a convertible note and $1.7 million in the form of 60-day promissory notes. We can earn up to $1.0 million in future payments from Luna Labs upon the achievement by Luna Labs of certain financial goals. The 60-day promissory notes and earn out receivable are included within the prepaid expenses and other current assets line item and the convertible note is included in other non-current assets line item of the consolidated balance sheet. The gain on the transaction was $10.9 million, net of taxes of $3.1 million. We have separately reported the financial results of Luna Labs as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and presented the related assets and liabilities as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. These changes have been applied to all periods presented.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Business Acquisitions	Business Acquisition On March 10, 2022, we entered into and closed a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with NKT Photonics A/S ("NKT Photonics") to purchase all of the shares of NKT Photonics GmbH and LIOS Technologies Inc. (collectively "Lios") for aggregate consideration of $22.1 million (€20.0 million). Lios is a provider of distributed fiber optic monitoring solutions for power cable, pipelines, oilfield services, security, highways, railways and industrial fire detection systems. The acquisition of Lios provides us with long range, fully distributed temperature and strain sensing capabilities, intellectual property, products and expertise that are highly complementary to Luna, which we believe will accelerate our technology and overall growth roadmap. The Share Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and indemnities. The Lios acquisition has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805 - Business Combinations. Under ASC 805, the total estimated purchase consideration is allocated to the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Any excess of the fair value of the acquisition consideration over the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Due to the timing of the acquisition relative to the interim balance sheet date, the purchase price allocation of Lios is based on a preliminary valuation and is subject to revision as final valuation of acquired intangible assets and evaluation of working capital values and related reserves are completed. The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration of the Lios acquisition: (in thousands) Accounts receivable $ 3,001 Inventory 5,388 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 92 Property and equipment 858 Intangible assets 5,994 Goodwill 10,533 Operating lease right-of-use asset 512 Accounts payable (1,217) Accrued and other current liabilities (1,026) Current portion of operating lease liability (322) Deferred income tax liability (1,537) Long-term portion of operating lease liability (191) Total purchase consideration $ 22,085 The identifiable intangible assets and their estimated useful lives were as follows: Estimated Useful Life (in thousands) Developed technology 6 years 1,998 Customer relationships 8 years 3,330 Trade names and trademarks 7 years 333 Backlog 1 year 333 $ 5,994 Lios's developed technology primarily consists of its distributed fiber optic monitoring solutions that provide a wide range of applications using fully distributed temperature and strain sensing. The developed technologies were valued using the "relief from royalty method" under the income approach. This method is based on the assumption that in lieu of ownership, a market participant would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these assets. A discount rate of 14.5% was used to discount the cash flows to the present value. Trade names and trademarks are considered a type of guarantee of a certain level of recognizability, quality or performance represented by the Lios brand. Trade names and trademarks were valued using the "relief from royalty" method under the income approach. This method is based on the assumption that in lieu of ownership, a market participant would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these assets. A discount rate of 14.5% was used to discount the cash flows to the present value. Backlog arises from unfulfilled purchase or sales order contracts. The value of Lios's backlog as of the acquisition date was calculated using the "multi-period excess earnings" method under the income approach. A discount rate of 13.5% was used to discount the cash flows attributable solely to the backlog to the present value. Customer relationships represent the fair value of either (i) the avoidance of cost associated with the creation of a new customer relationship or (ii) the projected cash flows that will be derived from the sale of products to existing customers as of the acquisition date. Lios's customer relationships were valued using the "multi-period excess earnings" method under the income approach. This method reflects the present value of the projected cash flows that are expected by the existing customers less charges representing the contribution of other assets to those cash flows. A discount rate of 15.5% was used to discount these cash flows to the present value.

The Loan Agreement provides a $15.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Line”) and a $20 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan”). On the Effective Date, we borrowed the full amount of the Term Loan from the Lender according to a term note (the “Term Note”), a portion of the proceeds of which were used to refinance the remaining principal amount of the $12.5 million in term loans issued under the Original Loan Agreement, and the remainder of which were used to pay down approximately $13.7 million of the $15.0 million in revolving loans outstanding under the Revolving Line (the “Revolving Loan”) according to a revolving line of credit note (the “Revolving Line of Credit Note”). We may repay and reborrow advances under the Revolving Line from time to time according to the Revolving Line of Credit Note. The Term Loan matures on June 21, 2027, which was extended from December 1, 2023 as part of the loan modification. The Term Loan amortizes at a rate equal to 10% for the first year, 15% for years two and three and 20% in years four and five, in each case payable on a quarterly basis. Accrued interest is due and payable on the first day of each month and the outstanding principal balance and any accrued but unpaid interest will be due and payable on June 21, 2027. The Term Loan bears interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the sum of (a) the daily simple secured overnight finance rate ("Daily Simple SOFR"), plus (b) an SOFR adjustment of ten basis points (0.10%), plus (c) an applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 1.75% to 2.50% per annum, depending on our Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement). We may prepay the Term Loan without penalty or premium. The Revolving Line expires on June 21, 2027, which was extended from December 1, 2023 as part of the loan modification. Borrowings under the Revolving Line bear interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the sum of (a) the Daily Simple SOFR, plus (b) an SOFR adjustment of ten basis points (0.10%), plus (c) an applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 1.75% to 2.50% per annum, depending on our Net Leverage Ratio. Accrued interest is due and payable on the first day of each month and the outstanding principal balance and any accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable on June 21, 2027. The unused portion of the Revolving Line accrues a fee equal to 0.20% per annum multiplied by the quarterly average unused amount. The unused Revolving Line totaled $13.7 million at June 30, 2022. The Loan Agreement includes a number of affirmative and restrictive covenants applicable to us and our subsidiaries, including, among others, financial covenants regarding minimum net leverage and fixed charge coverage (beginning in the third quarter ended September 30, 2022), affirmative covenants regarding delivery of financial statements, payment of taxes, and maintenance of government compliance, and restrictive covenants regarding dispositions of property, acquisitions, incurrence of additional indebtedness or liens, investments and transactions with affiliates. We are also restricted from paying dividends or making other distributions or payments on our capital stock, subject to limited exceptions. For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we were initially subject to a minimum adjusted EBITDA level which was not met as of June 30, 2022 but was subsequently waived. We expect to be in compliance with the minimum net leverage and fixed charge coverage financial covenants for the next twelve months. Upon the occurrence of certain events, including failure to satisfy our payment obligations under the Loan Agreement, failure to adhere to the financial covenants, the breach of certain of our other covenants under the Loan Agreement, cross defaults to other indebtedness or material agreements, judgment defaults and defaults related to failure to maintain governmental approvals, the Lender will have the right, among other remedies, to declare all principal and interest immediately due and payable, and to exercise secured party remedies. Maturities on debt are as follows ( in thousands) : Year Ending December 31, Amount 2022 (remaining 6 months) 992 2023 2,484 2024 2,984 2025 3,484 2026 3,984 2027 and thereafter 7,290 Total $ 21,218

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	Leases We recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating or finance leases with terms greater than twelve months. We have operating leases for our facilities, which have remaining terms ranging from 1 to 5 years. Most of our leases do not have an option to extend the lease period beyond the stated term unless the new term is agreed to by both parties. They also do not have an early termination clause included. Our operating lease agreements do not contain any material restrictive covenants. Some of our operating lease agreements contain variable payment provisions that provide for rental increases based on consumer price indices. The change in rent expense resulting from changes in these indices are included within variable rent. We also have finance leases for equipment which have remaining terms ranging from 1 to 3 years. These lease agreements are for general office equipment with a 5-year useful life. These lease agreements do not have an option to extend the lease beyond the stated terms nor do they have an early termination clause. These lease agreements do not have any variable payment provisions included. The finance lease costs consist of interest expense and amortization, and are included primarily in selling, general and administrative expense in our consolidated statement of operations. The finance lease ROU assets are included within the other non-current assets line item of the consolidated balance sheets. The current and long-term portion of the ROU lease liabilities are included within the accrued and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities line items of the consolidated balance sheets, respectively. The discount rate for both our operating and finance leases was not readily determinable in the specific lease agreements. As a result, our incremental borrowing rate was used as the discount rate when establishing the ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities. As of June 30, 2022, we had no operating or finance leases that have not yet commenced. Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

Share-based compensation expense related to stock options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. We expect to recognize $0.6 million in share-based compensation expense over the weighted-average remaining service period of 1.2 years for stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2022. Restricted Stock Units During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we granted 376,436 and 623,842 time-based restricted stock units ("RSUs"), respectively. RSU grants for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled 55,000 and 134,250, respectively. The general terms of the RSUs are similar to awards previously granted by us. The weighted average fair value of the time-based RSUs granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $5.48 and $6.39 per share, respectively. The fair value of each RSU was determined based on the market price of our stock on the date of grant. In addition, pursuant to our Deferred Compensation Plan, non-employee directors can elect to defer the receipt of some or all of the equity compensation that they receive for board and committee service. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 we granted 89,825 and 98,261 RSUs, respectively, pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan. RSU grants pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled 4,259 and 8,917, respectively.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Disaggregation of Revenue We disaggregate our revenue from contracts with customers by geographic locations, customer type, contract type, timing of recognition, and major categories, as we believe it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. We disaggregate revenue on the basis of where the physical goods are shipped. We also classify revenue by the customer type of entity for which it does business, which is an indicator of the diversity of our client base. We attribute revenues generated from being a subcontractor to a commercial company as government revenue when the ultimate client is a government agency or department. Disaggregation by contract mix provides insight in terms of the degree of performance risk that we have assumed. Fixed-price contracts are considered to provide the highest amount of performance risk as we are required to deliver a scope of work or level of effort for a negotiated fixed price. Cost-based contracts are considered to provide the lowest amount of performance risk since we are generally reimbursed for all contract costs incurred in performance of contract deliverables with only the amount of incentive or award fees (if applicable) dependent on the achievement of negotiated performance requirements.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $1.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in contract liabilities as of December 31, 2021. The following table shows the components of our contract balances as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: (in thousands) June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Contract assets $ 3,369 $ 5,166 Contract liabilities 4,816 4,649 Net contract (liabilities) assets $ (1,447) $ 517 Performance Obligations Unfulfilled performance obligations represent amounts expected to be earned on executed contracts. Indefinite delivery and quantity contracts and unexercised options are not reported in total unfulfilled performance obligations. Unfulfilled performance obligations include funded obligations, which is the amount for which money has been directly authorized by the U.S. government and for which a purchase order has been received by a commercial customer, and unfunded obligations represent firm orders for which funding has not yet been appropriated. The approximate value of our unfulfilled performance obligations was $47.6 million at June 30, 2022. We expect to satisfy $36.4 million of the performance obligations in 2022, $8.3 million in 2023 and the remainder by 2026.

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Our provision for income taxes is based upon the estimated annual effective tax rate for the year applied to the current period income plus the tax effect of any significant or unusual items, discrete events or changes in tax law. Fluctuations in the distribution of pre-tax income among our operating subsidiaries can lead to fluctuations of the effective tax rate in the consolidated financial statements. We and our subsidiaries file U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our effective income tax rate was 13.9% compared to 42.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for 2022 differed from the federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily as a result of unfavorable impact from the net Global Intangible Low Taxed Inclusion ("GILTI") and losses for which no benefit can be recorded partially offset by Research & Development ("R&D") tax credits. The effective tax rate for 2021 differed from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of the excess tax benefit on stock compensation vesting and exercises.

Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and ContingenciesWe are from time to time involved in certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of conducting our business. While the ultimate liability pursuant to these actions cannot currently be determined, we believe it is not reasonably possible that these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.We executed non-cancelable purchase orders totaling $4.8 million as of June 30, 2022 for multiple shipments of tunable lasers to be delivered over a 9-15 month period. At June 30, 2022, approximately $4.4 million of these commitments remained and are expected to be delivered by August 22, 2023.

Basis of Presentation and Sig_2

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Nature of Operations	Nature of Operations Luna Innovations Incorporated (“we,” “Luna Innovations” or the “Company”), headquartered in Roanoke, Virginia, was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1990 and reincorporated in the State of Delaware in April 2003.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information	Unaudited Interim Financial Information The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statements and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly our financial position at June 30, 2022, results of operations, comprehensive income/(loss) and changes in stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. The consolidated interim financial statements, including our significant accounting policies, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 14, 2022.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Intangible AssetsGoodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment on an annual basis, as of October 1 of each year, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. Purchased intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. We analyze the reasonableness of the remaining useful life whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable to determine whether the carrying value has been impaired.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants. Various valuation approaches can be used to determine fair value, each requiring different valuation inputs. The following hierarchy classifies the inputs used to determine fair value into three levels: • Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. • Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant value drivers are observable. • Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which significant value drivers are unobservable. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amount of lease liabilities approximate fair value because these financial instruments bear interest at rates that approximate current market rates for similar agreements with similar maturities and credit. We consider the terms of the PNC Bank, National Association debt facility, including its floating per annum interest rate of the daily simple secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), plus an SOFR adjustment, plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.50%, to be at market based upon similar instruments that would be available to us. The Company has certain assets and liabilities that have been recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis following an acquisition. Refer to Note 3, Business Acquisition
Reportable Segments	Reportable Segments Prior to September 30, 2021, we were organized into two main reporting segments, our Lightwave segment and our Luna Labs segment. We now have one reportable segment, Lightwave, following the determination that our Luna Labs segment met held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria at the end of the third quarter of 2021. On March 8, 2022, we completed the sale of substantially all of our equity interests in Luna Labs. Prior to the sale, our Luna Labs segment performed applied research principally in the areas of sensing and instrumentation, advanced materials, optical technologies and health sciences. See Note 2, Sale of Discontinued Operations, for additional disclosure related to discontinued operations and assets held for sale. The remaining segment, Lightwave, develops, manufactures and markets distributed fiber optic sensing products and fiber optic communications test and control products.
Net Income/(Loss) Per Share	Net Income/(Loss) Per Share Basic per share data is computed by dividing our net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common share equivalents that would have been outstanding if potential shares of common stock had been issued using the treasury stock method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, all potentially dilutive securities for stock options and restricted stock unites were excluded as their impact would be anti-dilutive.
Foreign Currency	Foreign CurrencyFor our non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using fiscal period end exchange rates. Sales and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings.
Recently Issued Pronouncements, Not Yet Adopted	Recently Issued Pronouncements, Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires companies to measure financial assets at an amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new accounting rules eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold and, instead, reflect an entity's current estimate of all expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is applicable to our trade receivables. This pronouncement was amended under ASU 2019-10 to allow an extension on the adoption date for entities that qualify as a small reporting company. We have elected this extension and the effective date for us to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13, but we do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
