Accounting Policies, by Policy (Policies) [Line Items] | | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Legacy Spectral was determined as the accounting acquirer and the Company as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of a capital transaction in which Legacy Spectral issued stock for the net assets of the Company. Upon the Closing, the net assets of the Company are stated at fair value, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. See Note 3. Legacy Spectral was determined to be the accounting acquiror based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) All historical financial information presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements represents the accounts of Legacy Spectral at their historical values as if Legacy Spectral is the predecessor to the Company. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements following the Closing reflect the results of the combined entity’s operations. All issued and outstanding shares of Legacy Spectral Common Stock and warrants, stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) of Legacy Spectral and the per share amounts contained in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented prior to the Closing have been retroactively restated to reflect the Exchange Ratio (as defined in Note 3). | |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Company’s balance sheets and the amounts of expenses reported for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition, warrant liabilities, stock -based -of-use | |
Cash | Cash The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. All cash is held in US financial institutions. | |
Warrant Liabilities | Warrant Liabilities On September 11, 2023, in conjunction with the Business Combination, the Company assumed the Public Warrants which have an exercise price of $11.50 per share, are exercisable 30 days after the Business Combination and expire five years after the Business Combination or upon redemption. The Company may redeem the Public Warrants if the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for 20 trading days within a 30 -trading In September 2021, Legacy Spectral issued 73,978 warrants, with a strike price of $7.60 and a five -year The Company accounts for its Public Warrants and the Angel Warrants as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Accordingly, the Company recognizes the instruments as liabilities at fair value, determined using the closing price of the observable market quote in an active market (the NASDAQ) for the Public Warrants and the Black -Scholes -pricing -measurement | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided, if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740. When uncertain tax positions exist, the Company recognizes the tax benefit of tax positions to the extent that the benefit would more likely than not be realized assuming examination by the taxing authority. The determination as to whether the tax benefit will more likely than not be realized is based upon the technical merits of the tax position as well as consideration of the available facts and circumstances. The Company has no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements under this guidance. The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest as interest expense and penalties as general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not have any interest and penalties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and did not have any interest or penalties accrued as of September 30, 2023. | |
Net Loss per Share of Common Stock | Net Loss per Share of Common Stock Basic net loss share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted -average -dilutive -classified | |
Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. Primarily all cash is held in US financial institutions which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not recognized any losses from credit risks on such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on cash. Additional credit risk is related to the Company’s concentration of receivables. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, receivables were concentrated from one customer (which is a US. government agency) representing 87% and 96% of total net receivables, respectively. No allowance for doubtful accounts were recorded as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. One customer (which is a U.S. government agency) accounted for 89% and 94% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and 98% for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 of the recognized research and development revenue. | |
Fair Value | Fair Value Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are reported using a three -level Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are assessable at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). | |

Unaudited Interim Condensed Financial Statements | Unaudited Interim Condensed Financial Statements The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2023 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any other period. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Legacy Spectral’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Form S -4 | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Spectral MD Holdings LLC, Spectral MD Inc. and Spectral MD UK Ltd. (“Spectral MD UK”). Significant inter -company | |
Accounts Receivable, Net and Unbilled Revenue | Accounts Receivable, Net and Unbilled Revenue Accounts receivable represent amounts due from US government agencies pursuant to research and development contracts associated with the Company’s DeepView ® The Company evaluates the collectability of its receivables based on a variety of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, the financial health of its customers and historical experience. Based upon the review of these factors, the Company recorded no allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company records unbilled revenue when revenue is recognized prior to billing customers. | |
Inventory | Inventory Inventory is comprised of finished goods, purchased from a third -party -downs | |
Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency The reporting currency for the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company is the US dollar. The functional currency of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Spectral MD Holdings LLC and Spectral MD, Inc. is the US dollar. The functional currency of Spectral MD UK is its local currency, the British pound. The assets and liabilities of Spectral MD UK are translated into US. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the end of each reporting period, and the revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the applicable period. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s translation adjustments are not material. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Resulting unrealized gains and losses are included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company recorded approximately $24,000 and $11,000, respectively, of net foreign exchange transaction losses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of net foreign exchange transaction losses primarily related to the Company’s bank account denominated in British Pounds and accounts payable denominated in British Pounds. | |
Leases | Leases The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases. Operating leases are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as both a right -of-use -of-use -of-use -line -of-use -lease -term -of-use During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any financing leases. | |
Research and Development Revenue | Research and Development Revenue The Company recognizes revenue when the Company’s customers obtain 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 by analyzing the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer(s); (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company generates research and development revenue, primarily from the contracts with BARDA and MTEC. Each contract for BARDA and MTEC has a single performance obligation. The contracts with BARDA are cost -plus-fee The MTEC Agreement provides for installment payments after the completion of milestone events. The installment payments are considered variable consideration as the entitlement depends on successful completion of research, however, the payments are not constrained from inclusion in the transaction price as it not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will be reversed when the underlying uncertainty is resolved. Revenue for the MTEC Agreement is recognized over time based upon the cost -to-cost -date The Company elected the practical expedient not to adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component as the period between performance (satisfaction of a performance obligation) and payment is one year or less. Payments from customers are generally received within 30 days of when the invoice is sent. The Company records deferred revenue when the customers have been billed prior to recognizing revenue. | |

Basis of Presentation | | Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC. |
Emerging Growth Company | | Emerging Growth Company The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes -Oxley Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non -emerging statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. |
Use of Estimates | | Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
Cash | | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short -term |
Cash Held in Trust Account | | Investment and Cash Held in Trust Account As of December 31, 2022, all of assets held in the Trust Account were held in cash. As of December 31, 2021, all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company withdrew $1,034,596 of interest earned on investment held in the Trust Account to pay its tax obligations and $250,522,502 in Trust Account in connection with redemption. The Company presents its investments in money market funds on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in interest income in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair value of investments held in the Trust Account is determined using available market information. |
Offering Costs | | Offering Costs Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A common stock issued were initially charged to temporary equity and then accreted to common stock subject to redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. |
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption | | Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at December 31, 2022 and 2021, 458,716 and 25,300,000, respectively, shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A common stock resulted in charges against additional paid -in On December 21, 2022, stockholders elected to redeem an aggregate of 24,841,284 ($250,522,502 value) of shares of Class A common stock, representing approximately 98.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Class A common stock reflected in the balance sheets is reconciled in the following table: Gross proceeds $ 253,000,000 Less: Proceeds allocated to Public Warrants (7,590,000 ) Class A common stock issuance costs (13,934,844 ) Plus: Accretion of carrying value to redemption value 21,524,844 Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2021 $ 253,000,000 Plus: Accretion of carrying value to redemption value 2,310,479 Less: Redemption of Class A common stock (250,522,502 ) Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2022 $ 4,787,977 |
Warrant Liabilities | | Warrant Liabilities The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The Company accounts for warrants in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815 and determined that the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the 8,433,333 Public Warrants and 4,706,667 Private Placement Warrants as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re -measurement |
Income Taxes | | Income Taxes The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company has been subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. |
Net Loss per Share of Common Stock | | Net Income (Loss) per Common Share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of common stock, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of stock. Net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the respective period. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of Class A common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the 13,140,000 potential shares of Class A common stock for outstanding Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants to purchase the Company’s stock were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 because they are contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per common stock is the same as basic net income (loss) per common stock for the period. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for each class of stock. The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share of common stock (in dollars, except per share amounts): For the Years Ended December 31, 2022 2021 Class A Class B Class A Class B Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock Numerator: Allocation of net income (loss) $ 8,816,873 $ 2,222,201 $ (1,674,526 ) $ (473,752 ) Denominator: Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding 25,095,264 6,325,000 21,972,877 6,216,507 Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock $ 0.35 $ 0.35 $ (0.08 ) $ (0.08 ) |
Concentrations of Credit Risk | | Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short -term |
Fair Value | | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a three -tier • • • In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re -valued -current -cash |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards | | Recent Accounting Standards In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020 -06 -20 -40 -06 -06 -06 -06 Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |
