The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (the “ Company ” ), formerly known as GigCapital5, Inc. ( “ GigCapital5 ” ), is incorporated in Delaware with headquarters in Novato, California. The Company is a medical device company engaged in research, development, and commercialization of innovative body imaging systems using low frequency sound waves. The Company strives to improve global health outcomes. Its strategy is predicated upon the fact that medical imaging is critical to the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of disease and that it should be safe, affordable, accessible, and centered on the patient’s experience. The Company’s initial product is a breast imaging system. On March 4, 2024 (the “ Closing Date ” or “ Merger Date ” ), QT Imaging, Inc. ( “ QT Imaging ” ), GigCapital5, and QTI Merger Sub, Inc. ( “ QTI Merger Sub ” ) pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement (the “ Business Combination Agreement ” ) dated December 8, 2022, completed the business combination of QT Imaging and GigCapital5 which was effected by the merger of QTI Merger Sub with and into QT Imaging, with QT Imaging surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of GigCapital5 (the “ Merger, ” and, together with the other transaction contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “ Business Combination ” ). Upon completion of the merger on March 4, 2024 , GigCapital5 changed its name to QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. and effectively assumed all of QT Imaging’s material operations. Refer to Note 2 - Business Combination for more information regarding the Merger. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ( “ SEC ” ) applicable to interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information related to significant accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ( “ GAAP ” ) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of QT Imaging for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the related notes which provide a more complete discussion of the Company's accounting policies and certain other informatio n. The December 31, 2023 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from QT Imaging's audited consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's condensed consolidated results for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or for any other future annual or interim period. The share and per share amounts, prior to the Merger, have been retrospectively restated as shares reflecting conversion at the exchange ratio of approximately 0.3427 established in the Business Combination Agreement. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, QT Imaging and QT Ultrasound Labs, Inc. ( “ QT Labs ” ). All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Liquidity The Company has incurred net operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and had an accumulated deficit of $28,503,111 as of June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,547,464 and used $6,955,081 of cash in operating activities, which includes repayment of net liabilities assumed from the business combination. The Company expects to continue to incur losses, and its ability to achieve and sustain profitability will depend on the achievement of sufficient revenues to support the Company’s cost structure. The Company may never achieve profitability and, unless and until it does, the Company will need to continue to raise additional capital. In connection with the Business Combination, the Company entered into various agreements to obtain financing through the issuance of debt and through stock subscription agreements. On March 4, 2024, the Company received the Pre-Paid Advance, net of issuance costs, of $9,025,000 from Yorkville pursuant to the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, $500,000 of cash proceeds from an investor related to a stock subscription agreement, and $1,500,000 in cash proceeds through a note payable from Funicular Funds, LP. See Note 8. Long-Term Debt. The Standby Equity Purchase Agreement provides the Company with access to an additional $40 million of potential capital through the issuance of common stock to Yorkville. During the time the Company has a balance under the Pre-Paid Advance, additional advances can be received with written consent of Yorkville or upon a trigger event, which occurs when the daily volume-weighted average price is less than $2.00 per share for five consecutive trading days. Management believes that the additional cash received and financing arrangements at the closing of the Business Combination will be sufficient to fund the Company’s current operating plan for at least the next 12 months. The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s growth rate, the timing and extent of its spending to support research and development activities, purchasing inventory to meet its growth plan, and the timing and cost to enhance commercialized existing products. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Any additional debt financing obtained by the Company in the future could also involve restrictive covenants relating to the Company’s capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for the Company to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Additionally, if the Company raises additional funds through further issuances of equity, convertible debt securities or other securities convertible into equity, its existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution in their percentage ownership of the Company, and any new equity securities the Company issues could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of the Company’s common stock. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to the Company when the Company requires it, the Company’s ability to continue to grow or support its business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited. Reclassification Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on the previously reported condensed consolidated balance sheet, statement of stockholders’ deficit or cash flows. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, any change in these estimates or their related assumptions could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operating results. Business Risk and Concentration of Credit Risk and Supply Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The majority of the Company’s cash is invested in U.S. dollar deposits with a reputable bank in the United States. Management believes that minimal credit risk exists with respect to the financial institution that holds the Company’s cash. At times, such cash may be in excess of insured limits established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral for accounts receivable. Payment terms range from cash in advance to 30 days from delivery of products or services but may fluctuate depending on the terms of each specific contract. Significant customers represent 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue or accounts receivable, net balance for the period ended as of each reporting date. For each significant customer, revenue as a percentage of total revenue and accounts receivable as a percentage of total accounts receivable are as follows: Revenue Accounts Receivable Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 Customers: Customer A 38 % * 75 % * 56 % * Customer B * * * * 30 % * Customer C 61 % * 24 % * 13 % * Customer D, related party * * * 57 % * 42 % Customer E * * * 43 % * 13 % Customer F * * * * * 45 % Customer G * 100 % * * * * 99 % 100 % 99 % 100 % 99 % 100 % *Total less than 10% for the period. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of total revenue is concentrated in a limited number of customers. Should a significant customer which is a party to a contract with the Company under which the Company derives revenue terminate or fail to renew its contracts with the Company, in whole or in part, for any reason, or experience significant financial or operating difficulties, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. In general, a customer that makes up a significant portion of revenues in one period, may not make up a significant portion in subsequent periods. However, as the Company has entered into a Distribution Agreement with NXC Imaging, Inc. (“NXC”) on June 18, 2024, by which the Company appointed NXC as the exclusive reseller to market, advertise, and resell certain equipment in the U.S. and U.S. territories, the Company expects that NXC will make up a significant portion of revenues in each period in which such Distribution Agreement is in effect. Customer A in the concentration table above is NXC, which resold the Company’s scanner to three clinics during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and four clinics during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Certain components and services used to manufacture and develop the Company’s products are presently available from only one or a limited number of suppliers or vendors. The Company’s QT Breast Scanner has more than six hundred components, of which less than five components have such dependencies on limited suppliers or vendors. The loss of any of these suppliers or vendors would potentially require a significant level of hardware and/or software development efforts to incorporate the products or services into the Company’s product. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had restricted cash equivalents of $20,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Restricted Cash Restricted cash is comprised of cash held in an account subject to a collateral agreement to be used for the Company’s corporate credit card program. Accounts Receivable, Net Accounts receivable are carried at the amount due. Accounts receivable are written off when management deems all realistic efforts to collect the amount outstanding have been exhausted. A provision for credit losses is estimated by management based on evaluations of its historical bad debt and current collection experience. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, an allowance for credit losses was not required. Write offs of accounts receivable were not significant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average cost method. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-offs of inventory that is obsolete. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. Once inventory has been written down below cost, it is not subsequently written up. Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment, net are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to current operations as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leases The Company primarily enters into leases for office space that are classified as operating leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. The Company accounts for leases by recording right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in the captions operating lease right-of-use assets, net and operating lease liabilities, respectively. The lease term includes the non-cancelable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by an option to extend that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company’s leases do not include substantial variable payments based on index or rates. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any significant residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit discount rate. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments, and in similar economic environments. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease payments related to the next 12 months are included in operating lease liabilities, current on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes a single lease cost on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, and the Company classifies all cash payments within operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company did not have any finance leases as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Intangible Assets, Net The Company’s intangible assets are comprised of patents with a useful life of 12 years. Patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful life. Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset to the carrying value of an asset. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values, and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Management has reviewed the Company’s long-lived assets and recorded no impairment charge for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Fair Value Measurements The Company applies the requirements of the fair value measurements framework, which establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value measurement guidance clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement guidance also requires disclosure about how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy in which these assets and liabilities must be grouped based on significant levels of inputs as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s financial assets measured on a recurring basis included certificates of deposit totaling $20,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and were classified as Level 2 financial assets. See Note 3 for discussion on financial liabilities measured at fair value. Debt and Debt Issuance Costs The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if they are freestanding financial instruments. The Company also evaluates its convertible debt for embedded derivatives. Embedded provisions (like conversion options) are assessed to determine if they qualify as embedded derivatives that require separate accounting. Debt issuance costs are recorded as a reduction to the carrying amount of the debt and are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. Debt is classified as short-term or long-term based on the term of the note. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps: 1) Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer The Company considers the terms and conditions of the contract in identifying the contracts. The Company determines a contract with a customer to exist when the contract is approved, each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred can be identified, the payment terms for the goods or services can be identified, it has been determined the customer has the ability and intent to pay, and the contract has commercial substance. At contract inception, the Company will evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract and whether the combined or single contract includes more than one performance obligation. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, credit and financial information pertaining to the customer. 2) Identification of the performance obligations in the contract Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or services either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company’s performance obligations consist of (i) product sales, (ii) maintenance contracts and (iii) other services including training. 3) Determination of the transaction price The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer. 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. The Company’s contracts do not contain a significant financing component. 4) Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price. 5) Recognition of revenue when, or as a performance obligation is satisfied For product sales and services, revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the control of the promised goods or services to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Training and maintenance services are generally recognized upon invoicing in amounts that correspond directly with the value to the customer of the performance completed to date which primarily includes professional service arrangements entered on a time and materials basis. All of the revenue recognized by the Company during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was recognized at a point in time. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is disaggregated as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2024 2023 2024 2023 Product $ 1,658,681 $ 3,183 $ 2,964,801 $ 6,247 Service 55,354 — 111,397 4,500 $ 1,714,035 $ 3,183 $ 3,076,198 $ 10,747 Revenue recognized by geography during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2024 2023 2024 2023 United States $ 1,700,130 $ 3,183 $ 3,058,325 $ 10,747 International 13,905 — 17,873 — $ 1,714,035 $ 3,183 $ 3,076,198 $ 10,747 The Company had no contract assets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company had contract liabilities of $31,746 as of June 30, 2024, which are expected to be fully recognized as revenue in 2024. The Company had contract liabilities of $347,619 as of December 31, 2023. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 that was previously included in contract liabilities as of December 31, 2023 was $11,905 and $15,873, respectively, while a $300,000 customer deposit previously deferred was refunded due to an order cancellation during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling activities are typically performed before the customer obtains control of the goods, and the related costs are therefore expensed as incurred. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Shipping and handling costs incurred for inventory purchases are expensed in cost of revenue when sold. Product Warranty The Company’s products sold to customers are generally subject to warranties up to twelve months, which provides for the repair or replacement of products, at the Company’s option, that fail to perform with stated specifications. The Company estimates future warranty obligations related to those products. To date, product warranty claims have not been significant. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs incurred by the Company include salaries, purchased services, operating materials and supplies, depreciation, and amortization, and are expensed as incurred. These costs amounted to $925,082 and $349,657 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1,567,628 and $771,544 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses were not significant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Grant Income Periodically, the Company is awarded grants on a cost reimbursement basis. Costs are expensed when incurred and reimbursable on a monthly or quarterly basis with the offset booked as a contra-expense to the applicable functional area in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets may be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company annually evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets by assessing the valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization include the Company’s forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. In accordance with this accounting policy, the Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. There were no accrued interest and penalties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Stock-Based Compensation Sto ck-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair market value of the award. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense on a ratable basis over the requisite service period of the award. The Company values stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions which determine the fair value of stock-based awards, including the option’s expected term, stock price volatility and risk-free interest rates. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur. Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss is defined as the change in the equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Comprehensive loss was equal to net loss for three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. For the purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, common stock equivalents are considered to be potentially dilutive securities. Reconciliation of net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2024 2023 2024 2023 Net loss attributable to QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. $ (1,248,874) $ (1,330,014) $ (5,547,464) $ (3,212,961) Deemed dividend related to the modification of equity classified warrants (5,185,502) — (5,185,502) — Net loss attributable to common stockholders $ (6,434,376) $ (1,330,014) $ (10,732,966) $ (3,212,961) Weighted-average number of common shares used in computing net loss per common share (1) 21,440,447 9,540,533 17,333,000 9,528,880 Net loss per share - basic and diluted (1) $ (0.30) $ (0.14) $ (0.62) $ (0.34) The following securities were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share because the inclusion would be anti-dilutive as of June 30, 2024 and 2023: June 30, 2024 June 30, 2023 Common stock warrants (1) 23,889,364 401,389 Potential shares from Pre-Paid Advance 11,626,337 — Merger consideration earnout shares 9,000,000 — Potential shares from Cable Car Loan 750,000 — Potential shares from convertible notes (1) 247,250 251,181 Options outstanding (1) — 1,350,432 45,512,951 2,003,002 (1) Amounts as of December 31, 2023 and before that date differ from those in prior year consolidated financial statements as they were retrospectively adjusted as a result of the accounting or the Business Combination (as defined in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s borrowings approximates fair value based on current rates offered to the Company for instruments with similar terms. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 reduces the number of accounting models for convertible instruments and allows more contracts to qualify for equity classification. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2024, and there was material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU is intended to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The ASU’s amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Entities are permitted to early adopt the standard for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. Adoption is either prospec |
