Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). Our accounting policies are described in the “ Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements ” in our 2022 Form 10-K and are updated, as necessary, in this report. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from our audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Principles of Consolidation These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, which includes its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company globally manages the business within one reporting segment, Vapotherm, Inc., and two reporting units, Vapotherm and Vapotherm UK Ltd. (“Vapotherm UK”). Segment information is consistent with how the chief operating decision maker reviews the business, makes investing and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance. As of June 30, 2023, the majority of the Company’s long-term assets are located in the United States. Long-term assets located outside the United States totaled $ 14.6 million , including $ 9.8 million located in Mexico, at June 30, 2023. Long-term assets located outside the United States totaled $ 14.9 million , including $ 9.9 million located in Mexico, at December 31, 2022 . Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant estimates relied upon in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements include calculation of stock-based compensation, valuation of warrants, realizability of inventories, allowance for doubtful accounts and credit losses, accrued expenses, the valuation allowances against deferred income tax assets, and assessments of impairment with respect to long-lived and intangible assets, including goodwill. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Unaudited Interim Financial Information The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, and the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss and stockholders’ deficit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2023 and the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and the cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes related to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period. Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Credit Risk As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt, the carrying amounts of which approximated fair value due to their short-term nature or market interest rates. All of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained at creditworthy financial institutions. At June 30, 2023, deposits exceed the amount of any insurance provided and are exposed to credit loss. The Company extends credit to customers in the normal course of business but typically does not require collateral or any other security to support amounts due. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers. The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows that the Company does not expect to collect. The Company’s estimate considers relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Provisions for the allowance for credit losses are recorded in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Supplier Risk The Company obtains some of the components and subassemblies included in its High Velocity Therapy systems and its OAM from single source suppliers. The partial or complete loss of one or more of these suppliers could cause significant production delays, an inability to meet customer demand and a substantial loss in revenue. Foreign Currency and Foreign Operations The functional currency of the Company is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates, which is the U.S. dollar. For the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries that transact in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, assets and liabilities are translated at current rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average foreign currency exchange rates for the period. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements of its foreign operations into U.S. dollars are excluded from the determination of net loss and are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a separate component of stockholders’ deficit. Realized foreign currency gains or losses arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in other (expense) income in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Unrealized foreign currency gains or losses arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash The Company considers all highly liquid temporary investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. The Company holds restricted cash related to certificates of deposits and collateral in relation to lease agreements. As of June 30, 2023, $ 1.1 million of its $ 19.1 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was located outside the United States. As of December 31, 2022 , $ 1.0 million of its $ 16.8 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was located outside of the United States. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances are primarily held by Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce Innovation Banking (“CIBC”) and Bank of America, N.A. The following table presents the components of total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as set forth in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows: June 30, December 31, Cash and cash equivalents $ 18,000 $ 15,738 Restricted cash 1,109 1,109 Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash $ 19,109 $ 16,847 Leases The Company’s operating leases primarily consist of real estate leases for office, manufacturing, research and development, and warehouse space, as well as certain vehicle and equipment leases. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Leases (“ASC 842”) requires lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet as a lease liability with a corresponding right-of-use asset, subject to certain permitted accounting policy elections. Under ASC 842, the Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at the inception of the contract. This determination is based on whether the contract provides the Company the right to control the use of a physically distinct asset and substantially all of the capacity of an asset. Leases with an initial noncancelable term of twelve months or less that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise are classified as short-term leases. The Company has elected as an accounting policy to exclude from the consolidated balance sheets the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to short-term leases. The Company recognizes rent expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain of the Company’s leases include options to extend or terminate the lease at its sole discretion. The Company does not consider in the measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities an option to extend or terminate a lease if the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the option. Certain of the Company’s leases include covenants that oblige the Company, at its sole expense, to repair and maintain the leased asset periodically during the lease term. The Company is not a party to any leases that contain residual value guarantees. Many of the Company’s leases include fixed and variable payments. Among other charges, variable payments related to real estate leases include real estate taxes, insurance, operating expenses, and common area maintenance, which are usually billed at actual amounts incurred proportionate to the Company’s rented square feet of the building. Variable payments related to vehicle and equipment leases relate to usage of the underlying asset, sales and use tax, and value-added tax. Variable payments that do not depend on an index or rate are expensed as incurred and are not included in the measurement of the lease liability. In accordance with the guidance in ASC 842, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g. buildings, vehicles, etc.), non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g. property taxes, insurance, etc.). The fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated to the lease components and non-lease components based on their relative fair values. The Company elected the accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for its real estate, vehicle, and equipment leases. Therefore, each lease component and the related non-lease components and non-components are accounted for together as a single component. The Company measures its lease liability for each leased asset as the present value of lease payments, as defined in ASC 842, discounted using a discount rate specific to the terms of the underlying lease. The Company’s right-of-use assets are equal to the related lease liabilities, adjusted for lease incentives received including tenant improvement allowances, initial direct costs incurred related to the lease, and payments made to the lessor prior to the lease commencement date. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate for each leased asset based on the interest rate the Company would incur to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term in a similar economic environment. When impairment indicators are present, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its right-of-use assets. If the assessment indicates an impairment, the affected assets are written down to fair value (See Note 10). Goodwill Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets when accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but reviewed for impairment. Goodwill is reviewed annually, as of October 1, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company compares the fair value of its reporting units to their carrying values. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company would record an impairment loss equal to the difference (See Note 6). Intangible Assets Intangible assets are related to customer relationships, developed technology, and customer agreements and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Amortization is recorded within sales and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for customer-related intangible assets while amortization of other intangible assets is included within general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate an asset may be impaired (See Note 6). Product Warranty The Company provides its customers with a standard one-year warranty on its capital equipment sales. Warranty costs are accrued based on actual historical trends and estimated at the time of sale. The warranty liability is included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. A roll-forward of the Company’s warranty liability from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023 is as follows: Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 281 Provisions for warranty obligations 156 Settlements ( 101 ) Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 336 Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenue is primarily derived from the sale of products, leases and services. Product revenue consists of capital equipment and single-use disposables that are shipped and billed to customers both domestically and internationally. The Company’s main capital equipment products are the High Velocity Therapy systems. The Company’s main disposable products are single-use disposables and nasal interfaces, or cannulas, and adaptors. Lease revenue consists of two components which include capital equipment that the Company leases to its customers and, in certain situations, an allocation from disposable revenue to other lease revenue upon the sale of disposable products in bundled arrangements involving the placement of the High Velocity Therapy capital units for use by the customer at no upfront charge in connection with the customer’s ongoing purchase of disposable products. Service revenue consists of fees associated with routine service of capital units and the sale of extended service contracts and preventative maintenance plans, which are purchased by a small portion of the Company’s customer base. In addition, the Company sells small quantities of component parts in the United States, United Kingdom, and to third-party international service centers who provide service on the High Velocity Therapy capital units outside of the United States and United Kingdom. Freight revenue is based upon actual freight costs plus a percentage markup of such costs associated with the shipment of products domestically, and to a lesser extent, internationally, and is included in service revenue. Rebates and fees consist of contractually obligated administrative fees and percentage-of-sales rebates paid to Group Purchasing Organizations (“GPOs”), Integrated Delivery Networks (“IDNs”) and distributor partners and are accounted for as a reduction to the corresponding of revenue category. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 , service revenue also included $ 1.0 million and $ 2.0 million, respectively, of fees from the standalone remote patient monitoring services sold through Vapotherm Access. Under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct and determines those that are performance obligations. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Sales, value-added, and other taxes collected on behalf of third parties are excluded from revenue. The Company’s standard payment terms are generally 30 days from the date of sale. Contracts with customers may contain multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the estimated relative stand-alone selling prices of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company determines stand-alone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the stand-alone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the stand-alone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations. Revenue is generally recognized when the customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which generally occurs at a point in time upon shipment based on the contractual shipping terms of a contract. Product and service revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products or services to a customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing the expected value amount method to which the Company expects to be entitled. As such, revenue on sales is recorded net of prompt pay discounts and payments made to GPOs, IDNs and distributors. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. Determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price is based largely on an assessment of the Company’s anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available. The Company believes that the estimates it has established are reasonable based upon current facts and circumstances. Applying different judgments to the same facts and circumstances could result in different estimates. When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. Applying a practical expedient under ASC 606, the Company does not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when the Company performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component during the three or six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022. The Company’s contracts with its customers generally have a duration of less than one year. Therefore, the Company has elected to apply a practical expedient and recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense. These costs are included in sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Lease Revenue The Company also enters into agreements to lease its capital equipment. For such sales, the Company accounts for revenue under ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), and assesses and classifies these transactions as sales-type or operating leases based on whether the lease transfers ownership of the equipment to the lessee by the end of the lease term. This criterion is met in situations in which the lease agreement provides for the transfer of title at or shortly after the end of the lease term. Equipment included in arrangements including transfer of title are accounted for as sales-type leases and the Company recognizes the present value of the lease payments due over the lease term as revenue at the inception of the lease. The Company records the present value of future lease payments in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets; these amounts totaled $ 0.1 million and less than $ 0.1 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 , respectively. Equipment included in arrangements that do not include the transfer of title, nor any of the sales-type or direct financing lease criteria, are accounted for as operating leases and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company also enters into agreements involving the placement of its High Velocity Therapy capital units for use by the customer at no upfront charge in connection with the customer’s ongoing purchase of disposable products. In these bundled arrangements, revenue recognized for the sale of the disposables is allocated between disposable revenue and other lease revenue based on the estimated relative stand-alone selling prices of the individual performance obligations. Shipping and Handling Costs Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in service revenue. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales. Shipping and handling activities are accounted for as activities to fulfill a contract and are accrued when the customer obtains control of the Company’s product. The total costs of shipping and handling for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $ 0.2 million and $ 0.1 million , respectively. The total costs of shipping and handling for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $ 0.5 million and $ 0.6 million , respectively. Sales and Value-Added Taxes When required by local jurisdictions, the Company bills its customers for sales tax and value-added tax calculated on each sales invoice and records a liability for the sales and value-added tax payable, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Sales tax and value-added tax billed to a customer are not included in the Company’s revenue. Stock-Based Compensation The Company maintains an equity incentive plan to provide long-term incentives for employees, consultants, and members of the board of directors. The plan allows for the issuance of non-statutory and incentive stock options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, stock units, including restricted stock units and performance stock units, and stock appreciation rights to employees, consultants and non-employee directors. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for awards of equity instruments to employees and non-employees based on the grant date fair value of those awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires all equity-based compensation awards, including grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units and stock options, to be recognized as expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss based on their grant date fair values. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is measured at the market value of the related shares of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period and is generally three to four years . For performance-based awards, the related compensation cost is amortized over the performance period on an accelerated attribution basis. Compensation cost associated with performance awards is based on fair value on the date of grant and the number of units expected to be earned after assessing the probability that certain performance criteria will be met and the associated targeted payout level that is forecasted will be achieved. Cumulative adjustments are recorded each quarter to reflect estimated outcomes of the performance-related conditions until the results are determined and settled. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs, including the expected life (weighted average period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding), the volatility of the Company’s common stock and an assumed risk-free interest rate. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected life is estimated using the historical life of options issued under the Company’s equity plan. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury rates with a remaining term that approximates the expected life assumed at the date of grant. No dividend yield is assumed as the Company does not pay, and does not expect to pay, dividends on its common stock. The Company estimates forfeitures based on historical experience with pre-vested forfeitures. To the extent actual forfeitures differ from the estimate, the difference is recorded to compensation expense in the period of the forfeiture. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for shares of its common stock issued pursuant to the Vapotherm, Inc. 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) on a straight-line basis over the related offering period. The Company estimates the fair value of shares to be issued under the ESPP based on a combination of options valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected life is determined based on the contractual term. Dividend yield, risk-free interest rate, forfeiture rates, and expected volatility are estimated in a manner similar to option grants described above. Income Tax The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements or in the Company’s tax returns. Deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent it believes, based upon the weight of available evidence, that it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established through a charge to income tax expense. Potential for recovery of deferred tax assets is evaluated by estimating the future taxable profits expected and considering prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements by applying a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination by the taxing authorities. If the tax position is deemed more likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves, or unrecognized tax benefits, that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties. The Company’s major tax jurisdictions are the state of New Hampshire, the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Mexico, and Singapore. The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 each totaled less than $ 0.1 million and related to income earned by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries after accounting for transfer pricing adjustments. The benefit for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled less than $ 0.1 million and related to a benefit for net deferred income tax assets deemed more likely than not to be realized by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $ 0.1 million and related to deferred tax liabilities for differences in the book and tax basis of indefinite-lived assets, partially offset by a benefit for net deferred income tax assets deemed more likely than not to be realized by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), due to ownership change limitations that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards that can be utilized to offset future taxable income and reduce taxes, respectively. The Company has not currently completed an evaluation of ownership changes through December 31, 2022 to assess whether utilization of the Company’s net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards would be subject to an annual limitation under Sections 382 and 383 of the Code. To the extent an ownership change is determined to have occurred under Sections 382 and 383 of the Code, the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to limitation. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Credit Losses (Topic 326) In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 , Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB clarified the guidance through several ASUs. The collective new guidance (ASC 326) generally requires that credit losses be reported using an expected losses model rather than the incurred losses model that is currently used and establishes additional disclosures related to credit risks. The Company adopted this guidance using the modified retrospective method in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 . The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. |
